BUY ONE Of
WEST AND WILSON'S
DOUBLE THREAD
FAMILY SEWING MACHINES.
PRICE, THIRTY DOLLARS.
This celebrated Machine was patented Juno20th
1858, and awarded the
FIRST PRE- HhrU M,
At the Ohio State Fair, held at Sandusky, 1858,
and at every County Fair in the State,
where the same has been
exhibited
This machine is now confidently offered to tho
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.
LIST. It's simplicity, and the directness with
which the power is communicated to the needles.
This is great desideratum andin this we claim
q decided superiority over all other machines.
I'd. The needle and needle bar are both
straight and the motion direct the needle bar
is attached to a small wheel driven by a larger
one, instead Of TO the long arm of 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.
IN. nd IF tha
motion enables us to sew all fabrics, from gauze
to four thcknesses 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 q sheet Of paper
TO heavy leather, and back and forth without
dropping n stitch or breaking a thread. We
know of no other family machine Of equal ca
pacity.
4th. 1t uses silk cotton or linen thread from
the original spools; unlike most machines, il
will permit the scam to be turned ut right an
giles at its highest speed; il has much moro room
than any other family machine for passing goods
through, thus allowing to pass freely the heavi-
est garments, quilts, &C., and it will turn up
readily upon hinges attached to the stand, tho
this is seldom necessary, as both tensions arc
regulated from above.
5th. The Machine will do n 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 will make and put upon garments
the finishing cord as neatly as ours.
Send for circular containingfull particulars
prices, testimonials, illustrations of stitch, &c.
Machines warranted and full directions given
for using, without charge.
Orders for machines and circulars will receive
prompt attention, by addressing

We lay before our readers, to the exclu.
sion Of our usual variety, the speech of Col
Geo. Baylor, delivered in the State Con-
vention on the 2Sth ult and 1st inst. It is
needless to say that we differ IA toto, with
the policy advocated by Col B., and be-
lieye, if it is carried out, it would be fatal
to the honor, the prosperity, and the inde-
pendence, not only of Virginia. but the en-
tire South. Col. 3. is, doubtless, perfectly
honest in the conclusions to which he ar
rives, and pursuing that course which he
thinks will result in the good Of the coun-
try.
However much we may differ with Col.
3. in regard tothe questions which are now
before the State Convention, when the bugle
blast Of the Democracy sounds the rallying
note for the conflict with Federalism, we ex-
pect to stand side by side with him, as in
days gone by, in battling against our life
long foe. and resisting the insidous, stealthy
and deceptive approaches and tricks of our
political opponents.

seems that he gave an intimation of the de-
NAL on the 10Th Of February, in four lines,

lines to them. Now, if the purpose was to
