land,' and this too, long after that potentate
had ceased to own an inch of ground, or
sway the slightest authority in France!
Is not such deliberated Misrepresentation
of a fact highly disengenuous towards tue
public?
But their Indian Trading Ethics allows of
such deceit; though we trust to see some of
these days, " stunning reverberation " from
the popular voice which shall ignore such
ethics from our political system forever.
In another article Of yesterdays Pioneer
we observe that it is coy about accepting the
Moccasin as principal feature on the State
Seal but desires to insert another design
which it hints is personal to the Senior of
the Minmesotian. Mr.. S1BLEY will have our
free consent to insert upon the Seal any thing
in reference to us which he or the Pioneer
may hatch: Prouided, however, that he will
substitute for .Noccasin, as the principal fea-
:ure a picture of that Brsech-clom which he
wore while sojourning en- tamillie with the
Wakpakutays on the head waters of the Co.
dar River! There might also be back
ground to the picture, which we will suggest
whenever necessary, but for obvious reasons
this should be kept quite dark.
To close this discussion, we think Baron
SIBLEY had better reconsider his proposed
motto of L'etoile du Nord," and give the
people what they want-a plain English mot
to, containing sentiment of moral, political
or physical progress. In the face of an iu-
telligent public opinion opposed to him, to
persist in his choice, will only intensity the
growing feeling a,ainst not only the moral
honesty, but the intellectual self-suficiencY
of Indian Traderism.

Reasons why this Machine is Uni
vcrS:i!ly Preferred over All Others.

Because it is the only Sewing Machine
in the world ever invented, so constructed as
to fully meet the demands oftamllies for gen.
eral use.
2 1t is very simple and is never liable to
get ont Of order.
3 1t makes seam which will not rip,
though every thread stitch is cut.
1t is not shuttle machine.
$ /, Sc VS. with too needles, making any
length stitch desired.
6 1t sews from two ordinary spools, and
Thus all trouble or winding thread is avoided
while the same Machine can be adapted AT
pleasure, by a mere change Of spools, to all
varieties Of work.
1.-THE same Machine runs silk or linen
thread, and common spool cotton, with equa
facility.
8 This Machine will sew in the sleeves Of
coat with the same ease and facility that il
sews n straight seam.
o This Machine can be run to make one
thousand five hundred stitches per minute.
10 The seems are as elastic as the most elias.
tic fabric so that it is free from all liability
to break in washing, ironing or otherwise.
IL The stitches made by this machine are
more beautiful than any o;her made either by
hand or machine.
The price of the Machines at office in New
York, range from $75 to $3.50, an additional
charge Of $50 is only made on each machine
over New York prices at office in Nashville
to defray expenses Of transportation &c. to

Type Setting ami Distributing Ma-
chmc.-Mr. r. Alden, of New York,
has invented, after many years OF cX-
perimenting, a very ingenious machine
for the composition and distribution of
types. The mysteries Of the invea-
ton cannot be explained with sulii-
cient brevity for these columns-but
the chief merit of the thing. in which
it excels other contriyances of the kind
is:--that the type are set and di>trl-
buted by one and the same machine
10y keys instead of separately as be-
fore. The process by which the little
bits metal are caught up and put down
again just in the right places, with
never blGndcr except when the hui
man agency ut the machine makes
one; the way in which the type are
fed out and returned again through
an endless round, so that the dstribu-
ton keeps up constant supply for
the composition; and the cunning de-
vices by which thousand little prac-
teal difficulties are overcome, are ev.
licences OF marvellous ingenuity on
the part of the inventor. and show
what thought and perseverance, can
accomplish. Mr: Alden thinks that
good compositor, accustomed to mani
pulate the keys, would be able to set
and distribute abou: 5000 ems a day
The cost of the machines will proba.
bly, be from 1900 to $1,000.
