We herewith illustrate further improvements
added TO the Wheeler 4 Wilson sewing machine,
namely, the "braider,7 device for sewing braid
or cord upon any kind Of fabric. The braid or
cord ~, is passed through the hole I3 (see en-
graving) OF the ordinary glass presser, IL, Of
the machine and stitched upon the fabric, 45,
iE the most elaborate designs without any pre-
vious basting. It's value is best set forth by
a ladyls hand as follows -
A new improvement has lately been added
To- the Wheeler & Wilson machine (which, 0y
the way was considered long ego to be as near.
ly perfect as any human coutrivance could be,)
being an attachment for sewing braid upon
cloth. silk or any other material -four friends
have been through The tedious operation of
braiding chldrens dresses, they viii realize the
great relief that awaits them 10 this invention.
The braid follows the needle with perfect accu.
racy taking anycurve desired, so that the most
intricate pattern may be braded with great ra-
pidity. Every lady may now possess one OF
those lovely chambray morning robes, ,embroider-
ed in vines aud labyrinths of white braid, which
have heretofore fallen to the lot only of the
most industrious and ingenious. For summer
dresses nothing can be more becoming and ele-
CANT. We hail this Improvement as a confirming
evidence of"a good time coming" for the ladies
one and all. And we may Ns well include the
gentlemen, for there will doubtless be an imme.
diate harvest Of elaborate smoking caps and
| velvet slippers embroidered with gold braid.
Long live the sewing machines

send to us to sell, cloths, cutlery, DC, &c,

quire why had not we farmers and artisans

From Indications received from Washing
ton, Il large share Of the blame for the defeat
Of our army at Fredericksburg is likely to
fall on th,;, heads Of Gen Hal1eek and Gen.
Meigs-on the latter for not furnishing sup
plies in lime, and Oh tie former for his bull
headed obstinacy In refusing to permit Gen.
Sigel to cross the Rappahannock far up, and
turn the rebel left flank and fall on their rear,
while Burnside stoTmed them in front. Our
Washington correspondent writes as follows
about this very important matter:
A week before the battle Gen. Carl Schurz
came to Washington to lay before Gen. Hal
lcck the plan devised By Gen. Sigel for aiding
Burnside. He came to beg that Sigers corps,
uniting with S1ocum's ut Harper's Ferry,
might be permitted to cross the Rappahan-
mock above and fall upon tue rebels from an
unexpected quarter. He received an insulting
rebuff from Gen. Halleck. That cold-cyed,
iron-cased officer etraightcncd himself up,
and told Gen. SchurZ, whose request was sec
onded BIZ two senators. that the President,
| Secretary Of War aud himself alone directed
| the operations Of tic army, or had Il right to
| know what they were to be-
| Another question vii, hope, sometime pc
rebels were allowed to concentrate
their forces, to complete two lines
Of earthworRs, to put all their guns

And why was it, on the other hand, that ou!
attack after being delayed SO long was fixed
for Il day on which it was impossible that al

arrive in season to co-operates Why was it

TEE PROCLAMATION.


Extract from letter received from an Off
Ger of an Illinois regiment, who left here in
September last, strong Democrat, whose
motto vas tic restoration Of the Union as
it E:s, and the Constitution rs it is:''
CANT NEAR NASHVILLE, Dec. II, 1861
Old Abc's proclamation is beginning to
work. The negrocs are counting the days and
hours when tic 1st Of January shall come.
They meet in little knots, and talk over the
whole matter, and lay their plans for going
The day of Jubilee, they think, has surely
come. The masters arc beginning to feel the
effects Of it. None Of them know what they
arc going to. do. The men arc away to the
war, in the rebel army, and the women, who
have never learned to work, are in perfect
CONSERVATION; they do not know where to
look for aid. I am glad things are going as
they arc, and only hope what have said Of a
few here may be true Of all. If the negroes
are only as brave as they talk, slavery will
soon be wiped out, and then perhaps we may
be able to teach the white rebels some sense,
close up the war, and go home.
