S + WING MACHINE

PRICEN FROM $40 to $40.
Tho BOUDOIR SEWING MACHINE, an en-
craving Of which is here represented, hos now
become recognized mvorits wherever 20
has been introduced, and is, beyond question,
the best, os well as the handsomest, low priced
Sewing Machine now before the public.
No. A small and very neat Machine for
Family use.
No. "A large Machine for quilting heavy
work and for Plantation use
This Machine is much admired for its simplic-
ty, and for its reliability and durability it is un-
surpassed. A child twelve years can run it with
ease and yet II will sew from the coarscst cloth
to the finest Swiss. There is no trouble Of re-
winding the thread, as il is taken from the spools.
It has no belts to give trouble, and will run
backwards well ns forwards. ard still sews
equally perfect and without danger Of breaking
needles. II runs hy friction, and by closing tho
box over it, it IL thrown out Of gear. In fact,
we have no hesitation in recommending it as the
best family Sewing Machine muse.

During one Of her interviews with Mont

which rightrully belongs to the daughter

effect of this pAixhan, in the midst Of the
smoke from which Jessie gathered up her
skirts and swept out Of the room, leaving
the Blair family routed, horse, foot, and

PETRIFACTloN.-lt is a question Of con
siderable inIpoi tanoe among naturalists, to
ascertain the time employed by nature in
petrifying bodies of an ordinary size
Leopld l., Emperor of Germany, was desi-
rous that some steps should be taken for
deciding this question, The Cheyalier de
Bailu, director of his cabiret of natural
history, and some other naturalists, con-
ceiyed the idea Of making researches which
might throw some light on the subject
All modern geographers and historians
agree in stating that certain pillars seen
in the Danube, in SerYia, near Belgrade,
are the remains of the bridge which Tro>
Jan constructed over that river. It was
presumed that these pillars, having been
preserved for so many ages, must be pet
rifed, and that they would furnish some
information respecting the time which
nature employs in changing wood into
stone. The emperor, wishing TO satisfy
his curiosity, ordered his ambassador at
the court of Constantinopie to ask permis-
sion to take up from the Danube one OF
the pillars of Trojan's bridge. 1t was
granted, and one pillar was accordingly
taken up, from which it appeared that the
petrefacton had advanced no farther than
three quarters of an inch in the space Of
1900 years.
When the foundations of the city Of
Quebec, in Canada, were dug up, petri'
fed savage was found among tie last bed.
to which the workmen proceeded. Al
though it was impossible to form any judy
ment Of the time at which this man had
been buried under the ruins, yet his quiv
or and arrows were in good preservation
In digging a lead mme in Derbyshire, in
l744, human skeleton was found among
stag's horns. 1t was impossible to say
how many ages the stag had lain there
In 1856, the entire skeleton Of an elephant
was dug up in Thuringia, in Germany
and sometime before the petrified skele'
ton OF a crocodile was found in the mines
Of that country. About the beginning o
the last century, the curate of Slpgart, il
the Swedish province of Shonon, and sew
eral Of his Pensioners, digging turfin
drained, marshy soil, found, some feet be
low the surface of the ground, an entire
cart with the skeletons OF the horses anC
carter. It is presumed that there haC
once been lake or pond on that spot
and the carter had perished in attempting
TO pass over the ice.

whom was Lieut.. S. L. Carpenter, of the 18th

officer at Augusta. Last week Lieut.. Carpen-
ter drew his check for 5000 on the Sub Treas
urer Of the United States at Boston, and it
was cashed at the International Subsequent

large. 1t is now said that he is defaulter to

the amount received from the International

LOUISVILLE X. Oct ]

LOUISVILLE, KY, Oct. Z.
Gen. Gilbert, with his corps, is at Lebanon.
1t is supposed here, by military men, that the
whole rebel force is retreatng to Halls Gap,
fw miles south Of Crab Orchard, where they
,dtend to make stand.
The bridge at Shepherdsville will be CON-
pleted by Sunday. Nearly all the bridges be-
tween us aud the rebels have been burned by
them, and three weeks will elapse before they
can be reconstructed
Midnight.-Lexingto is mostly evacuated
by the rebels. Only about 100 are there. The
rebels took and sent to camp Dick Rob-
inson 1000 barrels pork from Chenault & Co.,
packed on their own account and for other
parties, mostly secessionists. They also took
$4,000 worth jeans and lindseys from Oldham
Scott, d Co., which they have manufactured
into clothing. The rebels paid for these goods
in Confederate scrip, unless the owners refused
to receive it, in which event no consideration
was given.
Reliable individuals from Lexington, who
have conversed with rebel soldiers, are conf
dent that battle must ensue before the rebels
leave Kentucky. The rebel soldiers tell them
they prefer being killed or captured rather
than march over the mountains again. This
seems TO be the conclusion of the whole rebel
army.
The report of three companies of Ohio cav
airy being taken near Elizabethtown last week
is utterly false.

FROM CORINTH.
THE KILLED AND WOUNDED.
Death of Gen. Oglesby.

CAIRO, Oct. Z.
As yet we can only state general results of
the fighting Mt Corinth. The skirmishing
commenced Tuesday last, and there has been
more or less fighting every day since. The
rebel loss was about 800 killed and 1900 to
1900 wounded. We have 1900 prisoners at
Corinth and 300 on the Hatchie river, and they
are constantly coming in. We have taken
several stands OF arms thrown away by the
rebels in their flight; they are mostly new and
of English make. Our loss is believed to be
about 300 killed and 1000 wounded. Many
houses in town were badly shattered by shot
and shell.
On Monday Gen. Ord drove the enemy five
miles, over hills and through woods and valleys,
the rebels taking advantage of every wood for
their infantry and every hill for their artillery.
The fight lasted seven hours. The rebel Gen
Rogers was killed.
Gen. Oglesby has died of his wounds. Gen.
Ord was Slightly wounded.
The prisoners taken say their effective force
in the vicinity is $4,000; this is probably an
over estimate, but it is certain they have out
numbered us two to one.
