He soon, however, before completing his
second furrow, fairly awarded the merit
to each of tho others for doing better
work with less expense of team strength
than his, until now, nonsuch. That is
one of the results of these battles--to
decide upon the best tools to use. The
ox-teams were both light for such work,
but Judge WATERS with his team made
rapid work, and by a little common sense
ingenuity in adjusting the culture of his
pillow some two inches or moro "to land'
than the plough itself-thus throwing over
a much wider furrow than any other one,
and doing otherwise equally good work,
he thus finished bis land in turn and a
half less travel than any other.

LOCAL AND NE VS. ITEMS.
A Very Sad Item.

IL becomes our very painful duty to
notice and record the approaching end OF
the affecting tale that has been continued
from week 10 week in the columns of our
village contemporary.
The perfect abandon of Innocent verbi-
age with which the author commenced
the trial and suHerings of 9. Politics,
ESQ.,, caused much solicitude, on the part
of his many friends, upon the point wheth-
or said author could possibly survive the
effort. The undertaking has proved too
much for him, and we have to lament his
untimely prostration. The last number
oe the Clarion gives unmistakable proof
that he has not exactly expired, but,
sort of gin eou." 1t is however hoped
by his admirers that careful and judi
cious use of the all powerful party gal
vanic battery may cause him to emit a
few more spasmodic grasps at ideas, which
illusions will doubtless be given the pub
lie in closing up the disastrous episode.
We would suggest, as an appropriate clos
ing out of the concern, a careful selection
of paragraphs from an innocent, harm
less, political pamphlet that fell still-5orn

West & Wilson's Sewing Machine
Fair awarded TO i'll!

Fair awarded TO IL 4! /!
"The first claim of this machine is its
simplicity and the directness with which
the power is communicated to the needles.
This is effected by the revolution of a
single shaft, operated by crank connected
with the pedal. The needle and needle
bar are both straight, and the motion
direct; the needle-bar is attcahed to a
small wheel driven by a larger one, instead
Of to the long arm of the lever, as in most
machines, with power upon the short one,
thus giving strength aud directness TO the
motion of the needle. 1t uses silk, elton,
or linen thread, from the original spool;
unlike most machines, it will permit the
seam to be turned at right angles at its
highest speed; il has much more room
than other family machines for passing
goods through, thus allowing to pass
freely the heaviest garment, bed-quilts,
&c, and it will turn up readily upon
hinges attached to the stand,-though
thisis seldom necessary, as both tensions
are regulated from above. The first pro-
MUM as the best and cheapest family
sewing machine" was awarded to this
machine. detroit Free Press.
No better recommendation need be Of
fered than that contained in the foregoing
paragraph, announcing the award of the
first premium of our late State Fair to

ing Machine, manufactured at Elyria,
Ohio. Mr.. |. p. SANFORD, of this place,

PRICE, THIRTY DOLLARS.
FAMILY SEWING MACHINE

Now in use irrespective of Price.
We ask attention to the following points Of
excellence in WEST & Wilson's Machine.
LIST. It's simplicity, and the directness with
which the power is communicated to the needles.
This is great desideratum andin this we claim
a decided superiority over all other machines.
I'd. The needle and needle bar aro both
straight and the motion direct the needle bar
is attached to n small wheel driven by larger
one, instead Of to the long arm of a lever, as in
most machines, with power upon the short one.
The latter arrangement necessarily makes the
motion of the needle both circular and weak,
while the former gives strength and directness.
3D.. The great power and drectness of tho
motion enables us to sew all fabrics, from gauze
to four thicknesses of leather, with almost equal
case and the Machine can be made to run,
without changing needle or thread, through all
the different thicknesscs, from n sheet of paper
to heavy leather, and back and forth without
dropping stitch or breaking a thread. Wo
know of no other family machine of equal ca
pacity.
4th. II uses silk, cotton or linen thread from
the original spools; unlike most machines, il
will permit the seam TO be turned ut right an
giles at its highest speed ii has much more room
than any other family machine for passing goods
through, thus allowing TO pass freely the heavi-
est garments bed quilts, &C., and it will turn up
readily upon hinges attached to the stand, tho
this is seldom necessary, as both tensions are
regulated from above.
5th. The Machine will do greater variety
of work than can be done by any other stitch.
1t will HEM, QUILT, GATHER, EMBR0ID-
Err and CORD, and will do neatly and rapid
ly every variety of sewing that can be done by
a similar stitch upon the highest priced machine.
No machine win make and put upon garments
the finishing cord as neatly as ours.
Send for a circular containingfull particulars,
prices, testimonials, illustrations of stitch, &c.

for using, without charge.
