but can be found in every city Of the Union:
Our millionaire built and equipped a splendid
palatial residence in the upper part of the Ave

SINGERS SEWING MACHINES.

These celebrated machines are in practical and
profitable use in all parts Of the civilized world.
In all the various trades, and in sewing every sort
of fabric, either of cloth or leather, they have
been fully tried and approved. Sewing machines
of other manufacturers often fail to work, but
SINGERS MACHINES ALWAYS OPERATE
PERFECTLY, being strong, durable and complete
in continuance and workmanship. A perfect sew
ing machine kept employed affords a clear profit Of
81, 900 a year but an imperfect one is a cause of
constant ~vexation and loss. The entire RELIABIL-
ITY of our machines is one great reason for their
unparalleled popularity.
MACHINES FOR FAMILY SEWING,
of a frail and delicate construction. are rocom-
mended by other manufactures. Such machines
are made to catch the eye, not to perform substan-
tial work. The truth is, family sewing machines
ought to be stronger than any other, because they

u(acturers, and are used for a greater variety of
work. The machines which have proved best for
all other purposes must be best for family use, and
they are Singers. The speed of our machines has
lately been doubled. No other can compare with
them in quantity of work.
Bss- New machines of the latest improved
style will be exchanged on liberal terms for old
sewing machines OF our own make, or for opeTs

THE PAINTER OF sEvILLE.*
BY SUSAN wILsoS.+

Twas morning in Seville and brightly boam'd
The early sunbeam in one chamber there,
Showing wbere'er its glowing radiance gleam'd,
Rich, varied beauty. Twas the study where
Murille, the famed painter, came to share,
With young aspirants his long CHERISHED art
To prove how vain must be the teachers care,
Who strives his unbought knowledge to impart,
The language of the soul, the feelings of the heart
The pupils came, and glancing round,
Mcndes upon his canvass found,
Moths own work of yesterday,
But, glowing in the morning ray,
a sketch so rich, so pure, SO bright,
1t almost seem'd that there were given
To glow before his dazzled sight,
Tints and expression warm from Heaven.
Twas but a skctch-the Virgins head
Yet was unearthly beauty shed
Upon the mildly beaming face;
The lip, tho eye, the flowing hair
Had separate, yet blended grace
a poets brightest dream was therol .
Murillo enter'd, and amazed,
On the mysterious painting gazed
Whose work is this speak, tell mo !-ho
Who to his aid such pow er can call"
Exclaimed the teacher eagerly,
Will yet be master Of us all
Would | had done it Ferdinand
Isturitz! Mendez say whose hand
Among ye alP'-.with half breath'd sigh, .
Each pupil answer'd-"'Twas not l."
GLOW same it then ?" impatiently
Murillo called, "but We shall see
Ere long into this mystery,
Sebastian Z"

Not thrice five summers yet,
But genius mark'd the lofty brow,
Ger which his locks OF jet
