The Best in the World


The great quantity of worthless Sewing Machines that
have been palmed off upon the unsuspecting public by
those without character from the fact that they sold
at price is surprising and in view Of this state Of
things have made long, untring study to produce
a machine that could in way be classed among then
and finally lead the of first class Sewing Machine.

show that we have accomplished our OBJECT;

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

THE fIFTY-tIRsT regiment were mustered
out of the service Monday afternoon, by com.
panies. There was no general parade of the
regiment as was expected, the ceremony of
mastering out taking up most of the after
noon, so that it was found necessary to dis
pense with the proposed review; but the diff
ferent companies marched through the streets,
the infantry GO. D. and the color guard
having the escort of the Worcester Cornet
Band.
The paymaster was not on hand, and con-
sequently the men will have to wait several
days for the balance which is due them, and
which they have so honorably earned by
nearly years hard service. Before separat-
ing in the afternoon, some of the companies
were provided with good entertainment by
Their officers, and in the evening the officers
OF the regiment by invitation of the colonel,
had a social reunion at the Bay State House

SENT TO CAMP.-Scventy accepted subs IT,
tutes, who had been kept under guard at
Brnley Hall, were sent to the rendezvous
camp yeste rday. They went to Boston in
charge Of the State Guards. At the depot
they were received by detachment Of Col.
Frankles command, and escorted to their
cmbarkation for the camp on Long Island.
Arrangements tor their reception had been
made through the agency OF Col, Wctherell
of the governors staff The guard did their
duty perfectly. Not one of the men escaped.
Nearly all Of the men in this company of sub
stitutes were strangers in Worcester.
portion of them are said TO be New York
roughs, who came here to be paid as subSt-
tutes, and then run away. Most Of them
were doubtful customers. A few seemed to
be well behaved; and these, it is said, were
robbed by the others. Some Of the more des-
perate ones, who seemed bent on running
away, had endeavored to escape from Brinley
Hall by digging through the wall under the
hangings hehind the desk. Their plan was to
escape through this hole Sunday night The
operation was discovered ard men were
placed in the room on the other side of the
wall to receive them. But when the time
came, they had not been able to make the hole
large enough fortheir purpose; and Fortunate
ly for themselves, their scheme failed.
We are told that some of our citizens sup
pose that part of the men OF this company
were drafted men who had reported and been
retained by the provost marshal. This is a
mistake. The provost marshal received a
peremptory order from Boston to retain eve
ry man who reported, az well as every ac-
cepted substitute Under this order two or
three drafted men were retained until he
could get permission to give them a furlough
to go home. The permission he sought was
given, and as soon as ii was received these
drafted men were furloughed and sent home.
The men sent off yesterday were all substi
tutes There was not drafted man among
them 1t is not likely that the next company
OF substitutes will consist of such collection
of hard characters; for, now, when a substi-
tute is presented the board will make careful
inquiry as TO who and what he is.

VICE PRESIDENT STEPHENS OF the confeder-
acy is travelling southwark from Richmond
to reconcile the people to its desperate for
tunes. He addressed some of his constitu-
ents at Charlotte, n. c., on the 18th ut.
Though lie did not quote the consolatory
words of Millions Satan, ''what though the
field be lost" as the Richmond Examiner did,
yet he was quite as wild in his theory of their
recent defeats and his Vaccinations of future
victories. He was not at all discouraged at
the prospect; indeed, he rather liked 1t; and
though Charleston, and Mobile, and Rich
mond were to follow the fate of New Orleans,
Vicksburg and Port Hudson, this would not,
he insisted, affect the heart of the confeder-
acy, and its courage never to submit or
yield. He secuted the idea of reconstruction.
invoking destruction and death in preference
to it.
