SEWING MACHINES,

& ATISFTED, after careful examination Of the
,'princpnl Sewing Machines worthy Of any cred
1t that no other combines SO many prime quail
ties for general use as that made by the WHEELER
and WILSON Manufacturing Company, the sub
scribers have taken an agency for the sale of these
comparable Machines. The price Of n Machine
obtained Of will bc the same ne If purchased di-
rcctly of the manufacturers or at any one of their

manship and ready for use. To all purchasers of

the maohine-what every part of it does-and how
the whole may be kept in perfect working order
with reasonable care and skill
We specify of the chief points Of excellence
belonging to these machines.
!. Perfection Of Stitch. No stronger stitch is
made by thanksgiving. IL cannot rip any moro
than the common back stitch of the seamstrcss and
takes onethrd less thread to stitch than that does
The stitch Zine or coarse at the pleasure of the
scwer) is absolutely uniform and is precisely the
same on both sides Of the seam. This last quality
| Is OF signal advantage, sometimes, in making n
garment because some parts arc moro easily ham
| died in the making, by a change of side.
Z. Rdpidny Of Erecufi0n. The saving of time
| by its is hardly credible by one who has not
seen it in operation. good sewer will easily take
from n thousand to twelve hundred stitches in n
| minute with it. Tho finest work does not tax the
| eyes as the coarscst work by hand docr.
| ,. Stiffness and Ease Of Notion. The stiffness
| of its motion is surprising A sleeping infant
| would not be disturbed by in active work at its
de. dozen of them going in small room would
| bo no bar to free conversation No sewing machine
is made or can be made to move with less noise or
| less effort
A. Ease NJ Adjustments and Durability. From
the peculiar principle of the machine the fewnes'
of its parts, and the perfection of its workmanship
| the adjustments are exceedingly simple and easy. II
is kept in working order with great case and with
good care we believe one will last an ordinary lif,
time in family use
5. Sisc, appearance and Price, These machines
are sold at reduced prices at from $50 to 81 ;
according to size and style of mounting, plair
table or in ornamental cases &c. All are beautiful
in appearance and perfect in their working
| The medium s,se machine, is specially adaptc,
for family use is very compact in its structure. AM
| the handsomest machine before the public. I

| upon silk, linen, wooden and cotton goods-seam
ing, quilting, gathering, hemming, &c, with
beauty and strength unequaled by any machin
that we have They are sold by us at the sam
prices as at the Factory of the company, and 70
cash only.
| The 11EMMER-an additional piece Of mechan
ism lately patented, very simple and ingenious
is furnished for attachment to the Wheeler an
Wilson Sewing Machine, by means of which tn
machine will hem without any basting previou
turning of the hem. The price of the Hemmer
