SOMETHING NEW in YORK
TILTON'S PATENT
IMPROVEMENT ON The VIOLIN !

Until within a few years, there has been no
change in the VIOLIN. The oldest instru-
ments now in use were made about the year 1860,
at Cremona, in Italy. Musicians have long be-
lieved, that to possess perfection of tone, q VlO-
LIN must have age but this belief has of late
been agreeably changed, even in regard to the
Cremona by using the new patent improvement.
The chief object Of TILTON'S PATENT, is to
obtain a tons at once clear and full, mellow and
round, sweet and powerful. These VIOLINs are
for sale at the JEWELRY STORE occupied by
E. N. KIRKPATRICK.

A dispatch from 81. Joseph's, I'd inst, says
that the Salt Lake mail has arrived, but brings

the Territorial officers. Upon Gen: lohnston's en-
trance into the city, the few remaining Mormons
Aed. Commissioners Powell and McCulloch,
having completed the duty assigned them, were
passed at Laramie, en- route for home. Gen.
Johnston has issued q proclamation, prohibiting
the soldiers and citizens from disturbing the Nor
mons or their cattle, nor we're any of the troops
allowed to enter the city under any prete1t. The
rivers on the route are all high. The Indians

WEEDS PATENT SEWING MACHINE Is before US.
We have examined it and tried it on various kinds
of work, and for once confess ourselves astonished
that so simple o piece of mechanism will sew
The complaint against Sewing Machines generally,
has been that they very easily get out Of order,
and become useless to the purchaser. But here is
an exception, for there is, toa appearances, moth
ing to get out Of repair. And we wonder again,
so simple q thing will such o beautiful, straight,
even and firm seam, that never can be rivaled,
either in beauty or strength, BY any work done in
the ordinary way. L sews in the finest muslin or
the ~coarsest hardest cloth doing every kind Of
work which families require, and is also adapted
to shoe and saddle manufacturers' use, as we have
seen some very elegant specimens of work done
on leather, that Was not only handsome but strong
We have never eesn so complete Q Sewing Machine
before, or one we could so freely recommend t.

since Sewing Machines have become almost o ne.
