The peculiar advantages of this Spring over all others
are obvious for the following reasons:
vt 1t is double acting, closing holding open the
door required
I'd It's greatest power is at the closing point decreas-
Ing as the door opens.
3D. 1t may be easily detached from the door by rails
ing the lever from the hook and dropping against the
frame
4th 1t is Of simple construction and not being COM
plirated, will not get out of repair
9th 1t Is the most durable of all Springs the power
being graduated IS the door may require.
9th. Its greatest action requires but one-eghth of
turn others requiring from three-ourths Of turn
hence it will not lose its elasticity power however
long on the stretch, and connot be broken.
tn 1t is, contrary to the general rule ornamental,
and is applicable doors of houses cars, steamboats,

gines, boilers, mill work and other machinery.-
Having Withdrawn ny interest from the firm OF
Stigleman, johnson < Co., am now engaged IN
building new establishment, On a scale superior
TO any in this country; and am operating and
ready to receive orders at the corner of Pissa and
Fourth streets. where shall continue until the
new establishment is fitted up.
The increased demand for Engines and all
kinds of mill work. and particularly q better
class than any establishment in Alton is able or
capable of doing, induces me TO build an estab-'
ishmeni and fl it up with Machinery. Tools, Mill
Patterns. and worknmen as viii enable me to
turn out n better class of work than has hereto
fore been made or transported In this eeutFy.
And trust, from long and practicsi knowledge
OF the business, to receive the same encourage
ment that has heretofore been so literally be-
slowed upon me, fer which most cordially ten
der my sincere thanks, and hope to be sustained
BY generous public, IN this extensive enterprise.

business Messrs. Adams i Miller. Mr.. joseph

Emigration to the West.

Many of our Eastern exchanges contain
announcements of the departures of large
numbers of the laboring population of the
States, for the West. This heavy emf
grafton, at this time, is in consequence of
the financial embarrasSments of the East,
the depression of trade and the stoppage
of manufactures. Our sagacious eastern
contemporaries, who have heretofore in-
dulged in lachrvmose and gratuitous fore
holdings of the downfall of the "Great
Vest have now changed their tunes,
and admit, yea. feel quite confident that
| the prosperity of the West is upward and
onward, and that there is likely to be as
great an immigration during the two years
to come, as during the two years past
Let them concur broad rich prairies
viii welcome them, and in time amply re-
pay them for every privation they may at
first be subjected to. Let them come
the West needs mechanics, artizans and
! farmers. The former toupbuild its towns
and cities, and the latter to cultivate its
broad acres, and helpto furnish the ''daily
bread " required by the thirty millions
and upwards of inhabitants of this nation.
The Washington Republic, in speaking
of the recent movements to the West.
says that ait has been thought by many
persons, that the movement of population
already made to the West, would prove
to be in excess of the numbers who could
be proftably employed in agriculture. It
| is probable, however, that this movement
may be continued somewhat longer. be-
fore the proper balance between the urban
and rural population of the country is re-
stored. The relative gain has heen large
~ on the side of the cities and towns for
many years, and it must take some time
before the contrary movement can become
excessive To the West is now added
Missouri, opened to free labor by recent
events, and Kansas; both adapted to the
great staples of hemp and tobacco. All
the emigration to the West, which engages
in agriculture, viii not, therefore be en-
ploYed IN raising wheat or fattenins pork.
To the staples of hemp and tobacco, will
soon be added cotton, which will be cult
waited by white labor in the magnificent
territory south of Kansas. The West is
large enough, and Its capacities are diversi-
fed enough, to absorb all the labor which
is turned adrift by the financial embarrass-
ments of the seaboard. 1t is large enough,
but not too large; and recent events illus
trate the importance and beneficenee of
that policy which aims to preserve our
Territories for the exclusive occupation of
freemen. The white laborers of the North
and South viii now see, more clearly than
ever before, how i9anlel:ate and personal
their interest is. in shutting up our public
domain against the contamination and
ruin of Negro Slavery. So long as this
