OuR ALDERMEN BRToRE THE CRY FATHERS
Attic last meeting or two of tho conscript
fathers, their attention was prominently occn.
pied With proposition to bring in an amend
nent 70 tho police regulations of the city
Some way or other, report, whether true or
falsehad come TO the ears of the council that the
administration of justice, as carried on by the
Aldermen, was having tleliteriOus effect on the
moral health of the city. Indeed, it was open
~ alleged that the fines imposed for aggravated
offences, were merely nominal 1t was argued
that the effect Of such fines was merely to fill
the purses Of the Aldermen, by bringing the
same offenders frequently before them; while it
LEFT the citizens at the mercy, by night especial
~, of a horde Of brawlins rowdicS. No action
has as yet been taken upon the proposed amends
ment, and We understand that it is held in
allegiance, in the hope that the move which the
council have made in the matter, will have the
effect of bringing about the desired reform.
The idea suggested in the amendment is, that
one or two merely of the city Aldermen be en-
powered to try cases arising under violation of
the city criminal laws
There was strong disposition, on the part of
the council at its meeting on Tuesday evening,
to adopt some amendment of this kind, on &C.
count, as it was stated, of the REGENTS upcrabun.

Singers Sewing Machines,

YESIIESE celebrated machines are impractical and
l. profitable use in all parts of the civilized
world. In all the vnrious trades, antlinssew;pg.
every sort of fabric either of cloth or leather
they have been fully tried and approved. Sewing
machines of other manufacturers often fail 10
work, but Singers Machines always operate per-
fectly, being strong, durable and complete in con
trivance and workmanship. a perfect sewing
machine kept employed affords 4 clear profit Of
constant vexatiop and loss. The entire reliability
of our machines is one great reason for their un-
paralleled popularity -, ~.
Machines for family sewing, of a frail and Dell
icate construction, are recommended by other
manufacturers. Sucl machines nre madc to catch
the eye, not toperform substantial work. The
truth is, family sewing machines ought Ito be
stronger than any other, because they 60 into less
skilful hands than when sold to manufacturers,
and are used for n greater variety ofwork. The
machines which have proved best for all other pur-
poses must be best for family use, and they are
Singers. The speed of onr machines Is lately
been doubled. No other can compare with them
in quantity of work. - t,T:Is.
: nA, New machines of the latestimrfoSed 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. -

AMUSING PROPHECY.

During recent trip to New Hampshire,
grave citizen of that territory relieved the
tedium of some twenty miles over the East
ern Railroad by the recital of prophecy
made many years ago by Lorenzo Dow, re-
garding Franklin Pierce, when Representa-
tive in Congress. We cannot look to the
chronology, but hope for the credit of our
friend that Lorenzo Dow didn't die some doz-
en- years before the time on which his story
was based. Our friends twenty-mile story
we condense as follows:
When Mr. Pierce was Representative in
Congress from New Hampshire he was called
upon in Washington by the celebrated long
bearded preacher, Lorenzo Dow, who claim
cd to powers of prophecy, and went about the
country with staff in hand, and girded
like John the Baptist. He was remark
able man any how, and won many proselytes
by his wonderful and mysterious power -
lie swayed men, as trees are swayed by the
wind, and his outdoor sermons brought many
a hardened sinner to repentance. Mr.. Pierce
was in his room at his inn engaged in wri-
ting, when the waiter raped upon the door
and informed him that a rough-andtumble
old man down stairs wanted TO see him.
Tell him I am engaged, said Mr.. Pierce.
I've done so already, sir said the man,
'but he won't bulge. Indeed, he's the queer
est old chap I've ever seen, yer honor
SO down and find out his name, Jim,
said Mr. Pierce, 'and if the old fellow wants
to see me very much tell him to come again
Pm very busy now
The man went down, and Mr.. Pierce re-
sumed his writing.
Devil bit he'll 60, yer honor said the
waiter, again looking in, grinning prodigious-
ly; 'he says his name is Dow, and must see
you, because he's gota message for you
"Well, Jim,' said Mr.. Pierce, with the
good humor that always characterized him,
show him up ......
In a few moments the gaunt and sunburnt
"Wandering Jew, as he was called, stood
in the chamber, where he was cordially re-
ceived by its occupant, who invited him to
be seated until he should finish his writing.
Thestrauge man complied, and when the wri-
ting was completed, Mr.. Pierce informed him
