ARMsTRONG's WASHING MACHINE
"Neither a borrower nor lender be;

"Nelther q DOTTOWVr nut ISHuoI U0j
For loan oft loses both itself and friend
And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry."
No, don't borrow, but buy one of PLEASANT
ARMSTRONG'S WASHING MACHINES from
PERKINSoN d CO., of this City, who has the
right for this county, and who gives all persons an
opportunity of trying the Machines before purch-
asing.
We have tried it in our family, and can con-
scientiously recommend it to all house keepers as
a great labor sayir z machine. With this MAJ
chine, q girl thirteen years old has done, in less
than one day the washing that formerly employ
ed a grown woman three days. No rubbing with
the hands is required, the washing and rinsing be-
ing effectually done by the machine, and that too
without injury to the clothes.
Raleigh Standard, Sept. %, 1859.
We have tried the Washing Machine referred
to in the above notice, and it as a
| great saving of labor in our families.

An Historical ACKNOWLEDGEMENT of
Congress-


Within the last twenty years, says the Cincinnati
Enquirer, there have been three instances of long
delay ia the organization of the House of Represen-
tatives Washington. In 1889 and 40 towards the
close of Mr.. Van BUREx's Administration, the House,
which met early in December did not succeed in
choosing Speaker until about the LIST of January
The choice then fell upon R. NJ. I. HrSTER, now
United States Senator from Virginia but then serv-
ing in the House of Representatives. 1t his first
session and he entirely unknown the country.
He was a Southern State-riqkts Wing, and was elect
cd by the Wings and Democratic friends of Mr.. CAL
HoUN Before the session was over Mr. HUNTER
Joined the Democratic party, and supported Mr. VAN
buren, for President in the memorable "Hard-cider"
contest Of 1910.
Again, in ls49 and so, there was long delay in
the organization. The candidates for Speaker were
R C. WINTHROP, Wing. of Massachusetts, and HOWELL
COBB, Democrat of Georgia, now Secretary of the
Treasury.
After bolloting for three weeks, it was found I'M
possible TO elect by majority, a rule adopt
ed declaring that the person who had the highest
humble" of votes should be elected, whether it was
a majority of the whole number of votes cast or
not. Under this rule Mr.. COBB Democrat, of Geor
gia, was elected.
But the most remarkable instance of delay was in
1855 and 1856 The House of Representatives,
which convened in December, 1855, did not succeed
IN eecting Speaker until February, 1855 period
Of eleven twelve weeks. Mr.. BANKS, Republi-
of Massachusetts, was then elected under the
plurality rule, similar 10 that adopted in 1850 He
received one hundred and three votes to one hun
dred cast for WIN AIKEN, Democrat, of South Caro-
lima. With these exceptions believe there is no

nemncrntic meetinr..

As far as we can observe, very general interest
is being manifested in the holding of county meet
ings and the appointment of delegates to the Demo-
cratic State Convention, to assemble in this city on
the 18th of January next We t-ust that every
good and true Democrats thus appointed will make
some sacrifice, if necessary, to be present that
occasion. We want to see a substantial representa-
ton of the people.
The crowded state of our columns with legisla-
tive proceedings, which we compelled to publish
leaves little for editorial matter and the
current news of the day that it is with great diff
Guilty we find space for the proceedings of these
county meetings and shall be forced to abbreviate
them as much as possible, and to adopt the rule of
entirely emitting such Rs have ample facility at
home for publishing and circulating them among
those directly interested Such counties need
columns to give currency TO their proceedings viii

great pleasure to publish the proceedings Of every

friends will appreciate feelings and motives
