This machine is now confidently offered to Il
public as the best
FAMILY SEWING MACHINE

Now in use irrespective of Price.
We ask attention to the following points Of
excellence in WEST & Wilson's Machine.
1st It's simplicity, and the directness with
which the power is communicated to the needles.
This is great desideratum andin this wo claim
decided superiority over all other machines.
I'd. The needle and needle bar arc 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 n lever as in
most machines, with power upon the short ono.
The latter arrangement necessarily makes tho
motion of the needle both circular and weak,
while the former gives strength and directness.
3d. The great power and directness of tho
motion enables us to sew all fabrics, from gauzo
TO four thickncsses Of leather, with almost equal
ease and the Machine can be made TO run,
without changing needle or thread, through all
the different thicknesses, from sheet of paper
10 heavy leather, and back and forth without
dropping stitch breaking a thread. We
know Of no ether family machine of equal ca
pacity.
4th. IT uses silk, cotton or linen thread from
the original spools; unlike most machines, il
will permit the scam TO be turned at right an
giles at its highest speed; ithas much more room
than any other family machine for passing goods
through, thus allowing to pass freely the hcayi-
est garments bed-quilts, &c., and it viii 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 a greater variety
of work than can be done by any other stitch.
II will HEM, QUILT, GATHER, EMBR0ID-
Err and CORD, and viii do neatly and rapid
ly every variety Of sowing that can be done by
similar stitch upon the highest priced machine.
No machine will mako and put upon garments
the finishing cord as neatly as ours.
Send for circular contaningfull particulars,
prices testimonials, illustrations of stitch, 40.
Machines warranted and full directions given,
for using, without charge.
Orders for machines and circulars will receive
prompt attention, by addressing

First Babies.

A somewhat extended observation and a
solitary experience, have convinced US that
first babies have hard time. Parents must
have two or three children before they know
what a baby is, know how to treat it, and
acquire patience sufficient to treat it prop
erly. The poor little fellows that have the
misfortune to come along first have to edu,
cate parents to their task, and in the pro-
cess they get spanked, and shaken, and
abused. After a man has three or four
children, he learns that whipping, Or strik-
ing child less than two years of age, is
barbarism. We know one "paternal head"
who struck his first child when only six
weeks old, the ass actually believing that
the child knew better than to cry, and that
he stopped crying at that particular time
because he struck him. We carry certain
notions of children and of family govern
ment into married life, and the first child is
always the victim of these notions. And
not alone of these, for the parents have not
learned self-control, and baby is whipped
quite as Often because the parents is impa-
tient or angry, as because it is vicious or
intractable. We infict on our first children
the foggings we ought to have for our own
impotence or fretfulness. This pounding
of children before they become, in Gods
eye, morally responsible beings, is very
strange business. Patience, good people
unwearying patience Don't wait to learn
it until one of your little ones shall be hid.

Blackberry Wines.

We publish below a recipe for making
Blackberry Wine. 1t is recommended by a
contemporary:
There is no wine equal to the Blackberry
wine, when properly made, either in flavor
or medicinal purposes, and all persons who
can conveniently do so should manufacture
enough for their owu use every year, as it is
invaluable in sickness as tonic, and moth
ing better remedy for bowel disease. We
therefore give the recipe for making it. and,
having tried it ourselves, we speak advisedly
on the subject. Measure your berries and
bruise them; to every gallon adding on a
quart of boiling water. Let the mixture
stand twenty-four hours, stirring occasional
ly; then strain the liquid into cask; to
every gallon adding two pounds of sug ar ;
cork tight and let stand until the. following
October, and you will have wine ready for
use without further straining or boiling,
that will make lips smack that never
smacked under similar influences before. 1t
may be improved, and, perhaps, will keep
better, BY adding small quantity of pure
French Brandy.

AS they marched into his presence. the hal.
ance OF the guests followed, and with their
glitteriDg court dresses made a dazzling
array of royalty about the plain-clad pere
sonages of our Senatorial Republicans.
The Emperor engaged bis American visitors
in conversation about ten minutes, when he
handed them over to his talented and accom-
plished Queen, who entertained them for one
hour with great variety of questions on
political matters and versatility of talent as
unexpected as it was unequaled. She dove
into the young Senator in this wise
"What do you Americans want of Cuba?
Nothing" said Douglas, "only for her
to become independent, and then to main
tain her sovereignty as against foreign
powers"
"Then," said she, "why did you not join
with England and France in their PROPOSE
ton to guarantee her independence ?"
Because" said D., cit is an American
doctrine to avoid all entangling alliances
with foreign powers"
"How long," said she, shave you Amer
leans adopted this doctrine"
"Ever since she refused to join the Holy
Alliance in putting down one of the great
est men the world ever saw" said D.
This allusion to Napoleon l. silenced the
conversation on that subject, and after dis
cussiDg the most exciting political topics,
and fully unwilling the Emperor's views on
all these subjects, by an ardent and frank
expression of her own, the Emperor suggest
ed that the conversation should be dropped,
and the distingues of the realm, who had
been standing all this time, caps in hand,
should then have audience.

Sunday in Paris.

The Catholic Mirror is publishing a series
of letters from Europe, written by the Rev.
Mr.. Obermyer, late pastor of St. Vincent's
church OF Baltimore. The reverend gentle
man, speaking of the observance OF Sunday
in Paris, remarks
"Amid so much that is gratifying in
Paris, there is one thing that must shock
and scandalize an American Catholic. 1t
is the awful dissertation Of the Lords day.
A. person can with difficulty perceive any
outward difference between Sunday and any
other day in the week. Here on Sunday
all kinds of servie work is performed. 10
keep open stores and shops is too bad but
it is worse to see the mason laying his stone,
the carpenter busy at his trade, the stone-
cutter hewing his blocks, the blacksmith
hammering his iron, the cartman hauling
his sand and dirt, the laborer digging the
foundation of houses, the scavenger cleaning
the streets, and the small huckster singing
out his little articles. There seems to be
no rest for man or beast. This open, public
violation of one of the ten commandments
with the at least quasi sanction of the ruling
authorities, cannot but draw scourge from
high Heaven. Even after nlghtfall many
of the retail stores on the Boulevard are
kept open. How long, I have asked myself,
shall this scandal continue under rulers who
are officially styled Most Christian

immigration.

From the Steele County (Mnn.) News Letter
Rarely a day goes by but from two, or
three to half dozen teams pass through
our village bound for Blue Earth, Fasibault,
Brown, jackson, or some other of the south
western counties of our State. Each train
is accompanied by horses, cattle, and sheep
and averages four or five individuals to a
wagon. Before the first of June, more than
two hundred wagons of spring immigrants
came in over this route, and up to the pres
ent time it is safe to estimate the number
at four hundred; which would make the in.
crease of population thereby, two thousand.
Through all the other channels of ingress
there can have been scarcely less-perhaps
more-than twenty-five times as many
fifty thousand permanent inhabitants added
to our number since the beginning of last
spring.
From present appearance we may rea-
sonably expect much larger number the
ensuing autumn.
