KETCHUMS
Celebrated Moving Machine

After many years experience in the manuiac-
ture, sale and use OF Mowers and Reapers and
with our present Improvements added, which
have been thoroughly proved, we can recommend
the Ketchum Machine without any fear or mis-
giving, and do honestly believe that il is Me ma.
chine above all others, in emitting grass or grain
with the least drdught, the grea'e1 economy and
success of any in use. The machinery and gear
ing is 50 simple that any person, even boy, can
manage IL and with the Reaper attachment
which can be added AZ any time, It requires with
gentle team but one man 10 drive and rake off
the grain. The machine is so constructed as 70
combine grtat strength and durability with the
smallest possible weight the cutters are so
formed as 10 prevent en- irey the liability 10 clog
1t may be stopped and started in wet and lodged
grass without backing. Ii has vneel and lever
attachment by which the operator can instantly
raise the cutter-bar six or eight inches to pass
over obstruction q, and while raised the machine
may be drawn to and from the held, &c. The
cutter-bar being always on line with the axis
OF the driving-wheel, this machine operates
well on rough and uneven ground, where othor
machines cannot NOW. II can be instantly thrown
out OF or into gear by means Of abort lever
which can be operated with ease by the driveron
the seat. The machine 10 constituted entirely OF
iron, and the very beat kind, and its parts are so
adjusted ana guarded against accidents, that il
requires but little more attention to keep II IL
working order than the common scythe. Our
one horse machine has given great satisfaction,
aud is just the thing for many farmers.

The Great Ea stern.

According to the London correspondent 0 f
the New York Commercial Advertiser the
affairs of the great ship company are in hope
less confusion. They owe a sum equal to
about two hundred thousand dollars, and
have scarcely any means to meet it. A mort
gage of the ship appears inevitable. The
directors called meeting for the 18th in st.,
but now seem to recoil from it, and are en-
deavoring to postpone the ordeal to the mid
die of January. The Board room has long
been understood to be scene of constant re-
ordinations. and some of the shareholders
talk of throwing the case into Chancery, be-
lievlng that in that event some extraordinary
avowals would be extracted. The claims
against Mr.. Scott Russell (the contractor)
for defaults, are reported to amount to near
ly five hundred thousand dollars, while he
on the other hand sets up a handsome de-
mand for "extras.''

Our N aYV.

In the report of the Secretary of the Navy,
further increase of steamships is earnestly
recommended, as well as an increased force
of msrines, midshipmen, naval surgeons and
pursers, to meet the requirements of the
service. Since the commencement of the
present administration, twenty steam vessels
have been added to the navy. The seven
screw sloops of war authorized by the act
OF Congress OF June, 1858, have been
launched, and are all in commission except
one, and they are all reported as well con-
structed and satisfactory. Two of them
were built at Pensaco lasnavy yard, and one
at the navy yard of Mare Island, Califor-
mia, thus demonstrating that vessels required
for the Pacific service can be constructed
on that coast, thereby avoiding the dan
ger and delay of the voyage around Cape
Horn.

The Suffering Jews ofMorocco


appeal IRON the 1empte emanuel.
At halfpast ten o'clock, on Saturday
morning, the Temple Emanuel, a Jewish
place of worship in East Twelfth street, n.
York, was crowded with highly respecta-
BILE congregation of Israelites. 1t being the
Jewish Sabbath, the usual solemn and ina.
posing ceremonies incident to that day were
charity was delivered by the Rabbi, Rev.
DR.. S. Adler. In the course of his remarks,
DR.. Adler alluded to the hapless condition
of the Israeltes of Morocco, who, in conse-
quence of the French-Spanish invasion,
were obliged to flee from their homes in that
country, and seek shelter in the more hos
pitabe region of Gibraltar. The heart of
Israel, he said, bled for the sufferings of
their unfortunate brethren, and he appealed
to the congregation of Temple Emanuel to
come forward with every assistance in their
power. This appeal, couched in the most
pathetic language, made powerful effect
upon his hearers.
The Board of Directors of the Temple
Emanuel have resolved not to take up col
lection in their synagogue, but in another
way to receive the contributions of the be-
nevolent. With this view they have issued
the following circular, which will fully ex-
plain itself:
To the Members of the Temple Emanuel and
to their Co-ReligionS8ts.
SiR-The unfortunate condition of many
thousands of Israeltes, who were under the
stern necessity of fleeing from their homes
in Morocco to escape the horrors of war and
the attacks from hordes of hostile tribes, is
publicly known.
A large number of these destitute people
have sought temporary refuge in Gibral-
tar.
Our co religionists there and in England
nave promptly come to their partial relief.
More help is required; and the venerable
Sir Moses Montifore, ever active in the
cause of benevolence, has called on Ameri-
can lsraites to second the efforts of their
English brethren.
Though aware that there is vast field for
charitable work in our own midst, we can
not fold our arms in silence to such an ap-
peal from the distance.
There is sympathetic chord vibrating
through all Israel, when calamity befalls
portion of its adherentS, which bids us give
them our mite and console them in their al
Fiction.
Any donation you may be pleased to be-
stow may be handed to Mr.. Mayer, the bear
er of this circular, or to either of the I'M
dersigned committee, who will promptly
forward the same to its destination. We
