Reasons why this Machine is Uni
vcrsnliy Preferred over All Others.
! Because it is the only Sewing Machine
in the world ever invented, so constructed Us
to fully meet the demands Of lumIlies for gem
era use.
1t is very simple and is never liable to
get ont of order.
3 1t makes Il seam which will not rip,
though every thread stitch Is cut.
4 1t is not shuttle machine.
D 1t scWs with too needles, making any
length stitch desired.
6lt sews trun two ordinary spools, and
thus all trouble or winding thread is avoided
while the same Machine can be ADAPTED at
pleasure, by Il mere change Of spools, to all
varieties OF work.
1.-THE snme Machine runs silk or linen
thread, and common spool cotton, with equal
facility.
) This Machine will sew in the sleeves of
a cont with the same ease and facility that it
sews n stralghtseam.
0ThIs Machine can be run 10 make one
thousand five hundred stitches per minute.
l0The seems are as elastic asthe most elas-
TIC lubric so that it is free from all liability
u o'NNNi "hHH!H9' lFuNllG Ut O~therWisc.
III The stitches made by this machine are
more beautiful than any other made either by
hand or machine.
The price Of the Machines Of office in New
York, range from SIS to $50, an additional
charge of SO is only made on each machine
over New York prices at office in Nashville,
to deiray expenses Of transportation &c. to

HINTS ON TRANSPLANT
ING AND PRUNING.

ING AND PRUNING.
The first requisite in setting
ont fruit trees, is to select a good
dry soil, if not rich naturally, it
should be made 50, by the use Of
well, dccomposcd manurc-or
whatisstill better, virgin soil from
the forests, or when this cannot be
obtained, mulch from the swamps
or river bottom can be used to
good advantages. II The latter is
used, it should be exposed to the
atmosphere, for some time prcyi-
Gus to it's being used, that it may
loose its acidity, and if it was
mixed with some lime or wood
ashes 50 much the better.
We decidedly prefer thorough
preparation Of the soil, with the
plough; the deeper the subsoil is
broken the better. by adopting
this plan, the ground occupied by
the orchard is all well !ooscncd so
that the roots Of the trees have II
free range, and arc not confined
as is the case, when planted in the
usual manner, in holes from one
to three feet in diameter, and six
to eighteen inches in depth. A
common and fatal error ispiantiu@
toodccp, this aloncha killed more
trees than any other cause, Tie
trees should be planted just deep
enough SO that when the ground
settles, the collar should be just
even with the surface Of the soil.
The Dwarf Pear however forms
an exception to this rule, it should
be planted 50 as to have the june
turc oftIIc bud, or graft about two
inches below the surface OF thc
ground.
After planting, the next step is
to prunc in order to secure low
spreading tops ard short bodies,
SO asto protect tie bodies from the
sun. TO accomplish this, the tree
must be cut back. So well con-

Come To SPREAD HERsELF.-As a newly
married Vermont couple were promenading
Montgomery street, last evening, their curl
o>ity was suddenly aroused by the appear
ance of some mysterious looking article .
dangling in large show window. They
eyed them with the deepest concern, first
or one side then on the other, until at last
the husband, having completely exhausted
bis imaginative powers, bawled out:
well, Sal, consarn my pictur eff them
amt the cussedest looking things | ever
hearn tell Of" Then twisting himself about,
and giving the contents If the window all

Sal, when at the same moment q lady dres.

Jake had seen enough. His mind vas
made up. Sal must have "krineline. -
Without saying word he started to enter the
store. but was stopped at the door by her,
with all sorts of entreaties not to carry the
joke any further. But Jake was determined.
He had taken q fancy to the goods, and
could not rest until his better half WAS sup
piled with them. She drew back, but it
was of no avail. He gathered her arm
tight in his own, and making long stride
into the establishment, exclaimed
'Come along, old gal, you're my wife

Cleveland Herald quotes what

WThe Cleveland Herald quotes wha,
it calls very good story of the Rev. Mr..
Finney, the revivalist preacher, now Presi.
dent of the Oberlin College. The Herald
says that any one who has listened to the
colloquial style that Mr.. Finney INDUCES in
when he addresses the Throne of Grace, car
readily imagine the anecdote to be true to
the letter. 1t is as follows:
"On one occasion, in the midst OF pray
or, the Professor is said to have introduced
himself to the notice of the Lord, thus -
And here, o Lord is thy servant, Professor
Finney, ready and anxious to be used up in
thy service, but, we pray thee, if consis tent
with thy will, let him be used up as eco.
ncmically as possible In the same
effort, the Professor thus took IF Prot Nor
gan: And here, Lord, is Brother John
Morgan; Lord, thou knowest he has more
sense than all of US, but, o Lord, he is 80
lazy At another time, while in the midst
OF discourse, b., ther Morgan entered the
church behind time, with q pair of new
bouts which squeake horribly as lie walked
up the aisle. The Professor abruptly stop.

EUROPEAN MILITARY DESIGNATIONS
The Hulans. who made such havoc
Of the French Chasseurs at the battle
of Solferino, are cavalry division Of
the Austrian army, armed with lances
long poles surmounted with blades
not unlike q bayonet, suitable for both
cut and thrust. The lances are usually
carried in . socket of the saddle, and
in charge can be so guided by the
Hulan that the whole momentum Of;
horse and rider is given to the deadly.
thrust. In close contest the lance can,
be swung around the head of the Hulan
with terrible effect upon an enemy
within its sweep. The original Hulans,
or "Uhlans," were corps Of the
r lish army.
The Londweir of Prussia and Ger
many is the militia or army Of reserve,
as distinguished from the army of the
line or: regular troops. The military
forces of Prussia technically consists
of an army of the line, Landwehr Of
the first and second levy, and the land
sturm. The Landwehr of the first levy
is assembled but once a year at the
central post of the military district to
which its members respectively belong,
and here they are drilled for period
of fifteen days. The Landsturm is .
general levy, which comprises men be-
tween the ages of forty and fifty years.
The "naobilization" Of the Prus-
sian and German armies, is simply a.
summons of the landwehr Of the first
levy to muster into the ranks at their
military posts, where they are then re.
tanned, subject to further orders in COM
nection with the regular army.

PLAIN TALK.-T The Anti Lccompton Dem.
ocracy Of California, at their recent State
Convention, adopted the following very
emphatic resolution:
Resolued, That the Administration of James
Buchanan, by its outrage on the rights of the
people of Kansas, its unrelenting prescription
Of tried and worthy Democratic principles, its
constant violation of the pledges which
brought it into life, its attempts to make the
Legislative subject to the Executive Depart.
ment, and its gross extravagances, misman.
agement and corruption has forfeited the
respect and lost the confidence of the Ameri-
can people.
The two factions of the Democratic party
have each nominated candidate for Governor
of California John B. Weller, Alministra
ton; and John Curry, Anti Administration.
Leland Stafford is the Republican candidate,
and we hope to hear of his election.
