gentlemen, are to be overlooked.
The Tribune evidently prefers Fremont, next
to him Banks; Mclean it would lay on the
table. Fremont is a young man a successful
explorer; unfamiliar with politics; without
experience as a statesman without antece-
dents or record or any declared opinions On
the great Question which agitates the country,
and on which the Democratic Party has lust
taken thoroughly Pro-Slavery ground. Mr..
Banks is gentleman about the same age ad-
mirably qualified as Speaker; a successful
politician; a Democrat, in full communion with
his Party until 1854 then member of the
Know Nothing Order, in defiance of which he
delivered two speeches in the House of Heprs.
sentatives; still member of that Order. as
appears from the statements of his friends. al
though we we're not aware of the fact when he
was elected Speaker, supposing that his &C.
ton with the Republican Party had sundered
his relations to any other. He, Col. Fremont.
and Col. Bissell, all disapprove of the repeal of
the Missouri Compromise, but we must confess
our ignorance as to their views in regard to
Slavery, its relations to the Constitution and
the nature of the movement required for the
subversion of the Slave Interest. Judge Nc
Lean has history and an established position.
Once Democrat, Postmaster General under
General Jackson's Administration. he WAS
transferred because rather impraoticable. If
we recollect Alright, in partisan matters, 10 a
seat on the Supreme Bench, which be has held
ever since. He is pure man, of inAexible
integrity, earnestly religious, heightened con-
servat've. His settled opinions on the subject
of Slavery are we'll known, having been an
nounced from the Bench, printed in the news
papers, openly expressed in conversation. We
sum them up as follows:

Singers Sewing Machines.

YNHESE celebrated machines are impractical and
IL 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 tG
work, but Singers Machines always operate per.
fccty, being strong, durable and complete in con-
trivance and workmanship. A perfect sewing
machine kept employed affords clear profit Of
81, 100 year; but an imperfect one is q cause OF
constant yexation and loss. The entire reliability
Of our machines is one great reason for their un-
paralleled popularity.
Machines for family sewing of frail and del
icatc construction. are recommended by other
manufacturers. Such machines are made to catch
the eye, not to perform substantial work. The
truth is, family sewing machines ought to be
stronger than any other, because they 60 into less
skilful hands than when sold to manufacturers,
and nre used for n greater variety Of work. The
machines which have proved best for all other pur-
poses 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.
gsAs New machines Of the latest improved style
will be exchanged on liberal terms for old sewing
machinet Of our own make, or for operative ma
chimes Of other manufacturers. Local agents
wanted to sell our machines.
y. B.-All persons desiring full information n
bout sewing machines can obtain it by applying
for n copy of 81. NJ. Singer & Co.'S Gazette" a
paper devoted entirely to this subject. 1t will be
