II L has gained its widespread popularity, and
Il its innumerable sales throughout the world,
from tho following facts, which over $4,000 fam
lilies in the United States alone, who use them,
are ready to endorse:
l. II makes the only seam formed by Sew
ing Machine, in which each stitch is indepen-
IDENTIFY locked, and without dependence upon the
other stitches for strength.
2. 1t makes the only seam that will admit of
the thread being cut at every fourth stitch, with
out injury TO the seam in wear.
3. tits unnecessary TO fasten the ends of seams
made by this machine. This is doneby the ma
chine itself, without the use of the hand needle.
A. The Grover Baker stitch is the only one
formed from two ordinary spools, and without
winding from the spool into shuttle from three
TO five times, for the under thread.
g. A seam thus formed is more elastic than
any other made by sewing machine, and Is
consequently very valuable in all goods that are
to be washed and stretched under the iron.
6. The machine is adapted TO all varieties Of
fabrics, serving each equally well, and requiring
no adjustment for any kind of sewing, other
than the adaptation of needles and thread.
Z. II is more easily kept in order than any 9th
er machine, and need not be taken apart to be
oiled.
8. The machine sews common spool cotton
silk and linen thread with equal facility.
| o. The machine is so simple that an intelli
gent child of ten years can readily learn to ope
rate and keep it in order.
| 10. By reason of its simplicity of construction
and ease of management, it is best adapted Il
all the wants of the family.

CELEBRATED
FAMILY SEWING MACHINES!
EQUAL To THE
BEST ma CHIMES NO w OFFERED.

TNHE desideratum, so long sought, of a prac-
= teal good double thread Sewing Machine,
at low price, has Mt length been reached These
are the only cheap Machines which work with
TWO threads, and form u really durable and re-
liable stitch.
IL is considered the most simple and effective
yet introduced. IL forms n beautiful strong and
elastic stitch, and will not rip though every
fourth stitch be cut For simplicity of con-
struction, ease of motion, strength and durabil-
ity, it is not surpassed. IL will sew the finest
Muslin, Cambrics, Cotton and Wooden Cloth
with equal facility. BY its use, the tedious and
laborious work of family sewing is rendered
pleasure and agreeable pastime.
II has an under feeder, the same as HIGH pr;ced
machines, which is n very important thing in
doing all kinds OF work. 1t makes seam that
viii not rip or ravel, though every fourth stitch
be cut.
1t will hem, stitch, bind, tuck, fell, quilt and
emproider in tho most superior manner. The
same Machine, by mere exchange of spools,
can be adapted TO all kinds of work.
The seam is as elastic as the most elastic fab
ric, so that it is free from all liability to break in
washing, ironing or wear. 1t runs rapidly and
makes the least noise, and takes the Double Lock
Stitch, same as Grover 4 Bakers Machine.
To new operator it is the most easy to learn
as 1t runs either way, and can be learned in thir
ty minutes. 1t is tho most simply constructed,
easily learned, and less liable TO arrangement.
We invite all who are in pursuit of an excel.
lent machine, to examine this by all means.-

Machines sent to persons who never saw them
are operated upon successfully after a few hours

THE MISSOURI sTATE.c0RVENT1oH,
4 Scheme Of Gradual characterization
Likely.

[specih Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.1
ST. Louis, June 4.
The Democrats special from Jefferson City
State convention will adopt : scheme Of
gradual emancipation with compensation as
compromise between all but the ultra pro-
slavery interests.
JEFFERSON C1TT, June 4-In the CONVEX
tion but little WIS done yesterday except Of
feripg aud referring to the proper committees
resolutions relating TO the various subjects
before the convention.
The committee on elections this afternoon
determined to report in favor Of repeating the
ordinance passed at previous session sub
mitting the action Of t1e Convention to the
people for ratification or rejection and agaiust
holding an election for State officers till the
end Of the term tor whch Claib Jackson was
elected, which expires in 1864. The have not
dett rmined in regard to the election Of mem
bers Of the legislature.
ST. LoU1s, June4.-The State convention did
nothing Of Importance to-day. The Repu5H-
cars dispatch says:
sit is understood that the plan Of the COM
Governor, Lieutenant Governor and Secretary
ct Slate in Office till 1864, and provide for tue
election OF members Of the legislature, mem-
bers Of Congress, &C., in August next.
"The Committee on Congressional Dis
tricts will probably report bill tomorrow di-
vidiDg the State into nine districts.
''The friends Of g,adua1 emancipation are
canyassing The scheme with considerable en-
ergY. The proposition will be, as near a. can
be ascertained, to submit the subject to q vote
of the people in 1864, and permit them to de-
clare ID favor Of femancipating all negroes born
one year after the scheme is voted upon, and
after such negroes shall have attained their
age-the males Of twenty-five years and the
females Of twenty years"

THE GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS.
A very good system is inaugurated in
the act just approved by the President reg
ulating government contracts. Millions Of
dollars could have been saved to the treas
ury, and the people better served, hae this
plan gone into operation year ago Asst
has been, favorltism and bribery have been
deep in the contract business, and it is to
be feared that the consciences Of very many
public officers have suffered in the ordeal Of
temptation. as it is now, there is to be
nothing done in the dark. Il, for instance,
4 B. wishes to get share or the whole Of
the contract for army horses TO be let to-day
in Chicago and at other points, he has only
to PIT IN The loa0est hid, backed by suitable
securities. Il A. B. fails, This new act will
place the record Of the whole proceeding
before him and before the whole people,
and all can know who and what the com
petitors we're. And under an rests the
solemn oath Of the government officer
awarding the contract, thst he is not benc-
fitted by the award by getting to Ills pri-
Tatc purse say a dollar or five dollars on
every horse. AL this is excellent and far
feffar 7afe 1haD meyer
