E. DANFORD's PATENT
IRON GRASS CUTTER.

vINHE UNDERSIGNED WOULD RESPECTFUL
i LIT called the attention of Farmers and the
Public TO the above machine, which they are now
manufacturing for the harvest Of 1855.
From a thorough examination of the comparative
merits Of the different kinds of Moving Machines,
brought before the public in the States of Vermont,
New York, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, during the
last season, We arc fully satisfied that E. Danford's
Iron Grass Cutter, with double edges will give the
best satisfaction under all crcumstances of any that
has yet been offered the public; are also sus-
tanned in this opinion by several disinteresed per
sons that have had large opportunities for forming
correct decisions. The advantages Of this Ma
chine, with double edges, worked with a doubls
crank, over the single edges, working though a
slant, in the guards fingers, cannot fail TO be ap-
parent to the most common observer, LIST. From
the saving in power, the edges cutting like shears
End, The impossibility Of clogging, Sd. That they
will not need sharpening as often. This Ma
chine received the first premium of the state Agri-
cultural Society of Illinois, of 1854 after trial Of
four day. in competition with all Machines Of any
note. Also the first premium Of the Chicago Me-
chanics Institute of 1888 and 1854, and several
County Agricultural Societies in Illinoi. and In
diana 1t ha. in every instance received the fret
premium when put in competition with any other in

We respectfully invite all who are DESTROYS of
purchasing a moving machine for the coming har

The Voice of New Jersey.
From the Trenton State Gazette. ]

FROM tnc trenton State hhZette.
The convention at Philadelphia was a ne
ccssary gathering, 1t was important to the
vitality Of the party that the different threads
Of its comparatively random theory should be
gathered up and woven into coherent It's
sue. That work has been accomplished.
The free North has stood up manfully and
learning from the past that the South keeps
comprnm aes-that she l. uttorly dovoid
of honesty and good faith-has for the first
time come out of Babylon and set up for
herself upon platform in whose name she
will go into battle and come out into vic
tory. But we grieve to say that in this same
convention only two of New Jerseys repre-
sentatives-L Livingston and McClellan-haye
proved true to the sentiment of the state
The other five have bowed to the southern
idol one Of them voting square up for the
slavehOlding platform, the other four obsti-
nately refusing to append their name to
either of the protests against it. We trust
those men will be marked hereafter They
are not true representatives, of the sentiment
Of New Jersy. and should be banished from
a position for which both by principle and
trmness they have shown themselves utterly
unfit
The duty Of New Jersey in this emergency
is clear as Heavens golden alphabet, " that
he who runs may read Her sentiment
]
promise is no myth Her determination is un-
alterahle that no part of the territory thus
consccratcd to freedom shall ever come into
! the Union as slave state. Kanzas and Ne
/ braska must be free. If they cannot, they
must stay where they are, Let those who have
| bulhed us by threats Of dissolution of the
Union renew their idle bravado now, The
North cares not rush for it. The bully
has ever been too much of a coward to carry
his threats into execution, This government
was established for the extension of freedom
not Of bondage.
Where now, in this great and pressing
emergency, among all the distinguished men
who have been looked to as the next presi-
Dental candidates, is he who will openly avow
his position as the champion of freedom
Who will take sides on the right side, and
while lac receives the homage Of n party
whose success is certain, will give it aid
and countcnance We have cut loose from
the South-she has joined herself again tc
her idols. llcnceiorward the North will
rely only on the North. Give us no more slave
holding candidates for the presldency-w,
have done with them. The North, whenever
coalescing with the south, has been the vic
tim of fraud. She must now set up fol
herself

IFrom the Montpelier Waterman.

DEATu OF Mrs PRENTIss. Two weeks ago,
taking counsel from the hopes of her friends,
the Waterman announced that Mrs. Prentiss
was recovering. We have now to record her
death, on Friday night. at the age of nearly
three score years and ten.
Lucretia Houghton was born at Winches-
ter, N. H., March 81, 1856, united in mar
riage with the Hon. Samuel Prentiss at
Mortified, Mass, Oct 3, 1904, and for more
than half a century has been u resident Of
this village, dying on the night Of tho 18th
inst, in the 10th year Of her age.
The family gathering on this occasion, 50
sorrowful to the living, was extraordinary.
OF ten sons and one daughter, nine sons are
living and were present, gathered from four
states of the Union, Of the nine surviving
sons, six have families The six daughters
in-law were present, and twelve of their six
teen children-making the number of chill
dren and grandchildren present, q. The
present number of Judge Premises descen-
dants, in direct descent, is 3l--a Patriarch
indeed. Eight of the surviving sons have
adopted the profession of their father, the
law and perhaps we might fairly add the
ninth, as his business is now of thai class, lie
being Clerk of the L. S. Courts for Vermont,
in which the father is Judge.

GRIFFITH.
The War in Europe

The late effective movements of the Allies
must embarrass Russia most seriously
Their possession of the sea of Azoff not only
weakens Russia by the destruction of vessels
and ola vast amount of stores, but it cuts off
one of the chief approaches to the interior to
get more. The possession of Genitchi on the
west side of the sea, on the strait connecting
the sea of Azof with the Sivash or Putrid sea
must give the Allies the command Of the pile
bridge across narrow strait to the Crimea,
it being but few miles distant from Gen
itchi. 1t only remains for them to take pos
session of the isthmus of Perekor, and they
will have the Russians cut off from all sup
plies both of men and munitions of war.
while by the sea the Allies can add to their
own forces without interruption.

Lord Palmerston closed Tie debate on the
Ministerial side. However much you may
think that some of his conduct bellies lis APP
pearancc, the impression he produces is that
he is n thoroughly honest man. lie stands
nm with great nonchalancc, appears to be SO
certain of his integrity that he cares very
little what others may think, and talks with
n ready, blunt, straight forward cloquencc
that has a charm all its own lie is no
orator in one sense he never rises to cnthu
siasm never says more than he means. You
know his propensity to joking he was guilty
Of a shameless pun tonight. In the middle
Of u sentence he was interrupted by a cry
from the Scrgcant-at-A Arms, Of "Black rod -
and Mr.. Augustus Clifford, the Messenger of
the Lords, advanced to summon the Com
mons to hear the royal assent given by COM
mission to certain bills. Tho mcmbcrs all
rose and stood uncovered while the Speaker
passed down through the House, and with
ono or two others went to the bar of the
Lords, Soon " Mr.. Speaker was again am
nounced, the members recovered from dis
order, and stood again uncovered while the
Speaker walked to his seat. After reading
the titles of the bills to which the royal
assent had been given, Mr., Speaker called ON
Lord Palmerston to resume. " The chastisc-
ment," he began, " which had been threat
ened us by tho opposition has been antc-
pated by the sudden infection of the rod. ="
The House, galleries. and all burst into a
roar.
Mr.. Disraeli followed with few malig-
nant taunts which he had kept until they
could not be replied to, aud then the que7
ton was put-frst to vote, rira rocc. The
Speaker then called out, " the ayes to the
right, the noes to the left, =" and the cages"
passed out behind the chair to the {" division
lobby" running along the West side, the
d" noes though the opposite door to the
East lobby. Four tellers were appointed by
the Speaker, two for each lobby, who counted
the members as they filed through the res
pective Hobbies and back into the House. The
tellers then advanced abreast to the ia bic,
and ono Of them announccd-thc ayes to the
right, 2l9 the noes to the left, 3l9." The
announcement was received on the govern
ment benches with loud and prolonged cheer
ing. This was about half past two in the
morning.
I had intended to make some remarks on
the general style of Parliamentary speaking
a style which is lost in the reports, and
which is quite unique. But this letter is
