The Odd Fellows Festival Postponed
until the 22d of February.

Festivals having been the order Of the day
for some weeks past in this and neighbOring
cities, it was thought best to postpone the one
heretofore announced to be at Odd Fellows
Hall on the I4th inst, until the evening of
the 22d of February next, at which time we
intend that all that has been promised, and
more, too, if possible, shall be realized in the
festival line, by any and all who may favor
us by their presence and patronage.
We again promise that it shall be grand
affair, e1celling if possible, anything that
has yet taken place in our city. We then
say, remember Monday evening the 22d of
February, at Odd Fellows Hall, and espe-
cially the poor and families of soldiers in our
midst, for whose benefit this Festival is de-
signed

Sewing Machines!

These Machines make the lock.stitch
alike on both sides, and use less than half
the thread and silk that the single or
double thread loop-stich Machines do;
will Hem, Fell, Gather, Cord, Braid,
Bind, &C., and are better adapted than
any other Sewing Machine in use to the
frequent changes and great variety of
sewing required in a family, for they will
sew from one to twenty thicknesses of
Marseiles without stopping, and make
every stitch perfect, or from the finest
gauze to the heaviest beaver cloth, or
even the stoutest harness leather, without
changing the feed, needle, or tension, or
making any adjustment Of Machine what
everl
They are simple in construction, and
easily understood; and if any part is
broken by accident, it is readily replaced.
These are peculiar facts, and will go
far to determine the choice of any inteli
gent buyer.
Please call and examine or send for

The Singer Sewing Machines!

Our LETTER A FAMILY SEWING MA
CHINE is fast gaining aworld-wide reputation.
1t is beyond doubt the best and cheapest and
most beautiful Of all Family Sewing Machines
yet offered to the public. No other Family Sew
ing Machine has so many useful appliances for
Hemming, Binding, Telling, Tucking, Gather
ing, Guaging, Braiding, Ernbroidcring, Cording,
&c. No other family sewing machine has so
much capacity for great variety of work. 1t
will sew all kinds of cloth, and with all kinds Of
thread. Great and recent improvements make
our family sewing machine most reliable, and
most durable, and most certain in action at all
rates of speed. 1t makes the interocked stitch.
which is the best stitch known. Any one, even
the most ordinary capacity, can see, at glance,
how to use the letter A family sewing Machine.
Our family sewing machines are finished in
chaste and exquisite style.
The folding case of the family machine is
piece of cumming workmanship of the most
useful kind. 1t protects the machine when not
in use, and when about to be operated may be
opened as a spacious and substantial table to
sustain the work. While some of the cases, made
out of the choicest woods, are finished in the
simplest and chastest manner possible, others
are adorned and embellished in the most costly
and superb manner.
1t is absolutely necessary to sec the family
machine in operation, SO as to judge of its great
capacity. and beauty. Il is fast becoming as
popular for family sewing as our manufacturing
machines are for manufacturing purposes.
The branch Offices are well supplied with silk
twist, thread needles, oil, &C., of the very best
quality. Send for pamphlet.
