GAIL HAMILTON has in the press of her
publishers, Messrs. Ticknor & Fields, Bos-
ton, new volume specially adapted to sum-
mer reading, and bearing the taking title of
"Summer Rest" Most of the articles in
this volume are now for the first time printed,
and win be found equal to any of the authors
most brilliant essays. Halicarnassus appears
again on the carpet; and his exploits in the
way of gardening and other domestic matters
are made very amusing. Gail Hamilton is
never dull. Possessed of sharp and ready
wit, speaking boldly, and that too upon topics
wherein women have been supposed to have
but little interest, she has already gathered
about her an audience, which, by its hearty
appreciation of her writings, attests the truth
of maHy of her convictions. The success Of
her various volumes of essays has been with
out parallel; iB fact she is the most success
ful writer of the day.

and less liable to arrangement than ether ma

3. They are eapable Of executing perfectly,
without change Of adjustment, q much greater
variety Of work than other machiaes.
! 4. The stitch made by these machines is much
more firm, elastic, and durable, especially upon
| articles which require to be washed and ironed,
| than any other stitch
| 5. This stitch, owing to the manner in which
the under thread ID inwrought, is much the most
plump and beautiful in use, and retains this
plumpness and beauty even upon articles frequent
/: ly washed and ironed uatil they are worn out.
6. The structure of the seam is such that,
though it be cut or broken at intervals Of only Q
few stitches, it will neither open, run, or ravel,
| but remains firm and durable
Z. Unlike other machines, these fasten both
| ends Of the seam by their own operation
! 8. With these machines, while silk Is used upon
the right or face side of the seam, cotton may be
used upon the other side without lessening the
strength or durability of the seam. This can be
done on other machine, and is great saving
upon all articles stitched or made up with silk.
/ These machines, in addition to their superior
merits as instruments for sewing, by change Of
adjustment, easily learned and practiced, execute
thc most beautiful and permanent embroidery and
| ornamental work.

GERS and citizens Of the borough some time
ago the necessity of a general cleaning up
throughout the town and the inauguration of
such sanitary regulations as might afford US
reasonable chance Of exemption from yisi-
tation Of cholera. The result was large
crop of good resolutions, considerable talk Of
what ought to be done, and the removal of a
few heaps of dirt from the main streets. The
resolutions were good and enough Of them
1t is sometimes said thing begun is halt
done, the beginning Of the cleaning up was
by no means of this kind, il win require
number Of such beginnings before the proper
cleaning up of the streets is anything like
half done. What has become of the visiting
and smelling committees for the examination
OF alleys, cellars, backyards &c. -the noxious

DrsENFEcTANTs. In cleaning up their prem
ises and preparing for the hot weather of the
summer months many persons are not only
willing but DESTROYS of getting some reliable
disiufe.tant, but know not what to get nor
where to apply for it. The cheapest and
and safest of all disinfectants are quick lime
ana sulphate Of Iron or Copperas. Lime is
particularly useful for white-washing cellars
and sprinkling floors as it destroys the fungi
Of almost every variety that vegetate in damp
and dark places. If cellars are carefully
cleansed from all filth and decaying vegetable
matter, swill, &C., and lime plentifnlly applied
to both walls and floors and provision made
for good ventilation, they may be regarded as
about as safe as it is possible to make any
underground rooms. Copperas is the cheap
est and most effective disinfectant for water
closets, privies, drains, foul floors, &c. 1t
should be used in the proportion of about
three pounds dissolved in gallon of water
and sprinkled freely wherever offensive odors
are detected, thus used it win speedily neu-
tralize nearly all noxious gases, Chloride Of
lime is an active antiseptic frequently used in
sick rooms, especially in diseases considered
contagious IF every housekeeper would
keep on hand and frequently use these simple
preyentiyes, days and weeks Of weary suffer
ing, innumerabe doctor bills, and many val
uab'e lives would annually be saved.

Bedford, May 25. 1866.

aeg- On last Sabbath evening the Rev.
RoBERr T. SAMPLE, Pastor Of the Presbyte
rian Church of this place, delivered fare
well discourse to his congregation. For some
time past his health has been feeble, and in
September last, hoping to recruit it, he yisi
ted Minnesota and remained there for several
weeks. Whilst there he preached to the
congregation of St. Anthony, and, of course,
they, like every other people that have heard
him, were pleased with him. The result was
that unanimous call was given him, which.
however, he declined. During his stay there
his health was much better than it had pre-
viousIy been, and, the call having been re-
newed this spring, he concluded to accept it
his experienced and eminent physician ad-
vising him to do so-and he requested Pres
bytery TO dissolve the pastoral relation be-
tween him and the church here, request in
which the church joined, and to which Pres
bytery consented solely for the reason that
they believed that his health would be I'M
proved by the change. Dir. Sample has been
the Pastor of the church here for more than
ten years and has served it with great faith
fulness and acceptableness, and during all
that time his walk and conversation have been
such as to commend the religion of the Bible
to his fellow men. ssChriat and him crucifedn
have been, through all thai period, the prom
inent theme of his discourses. The text of
his Yaledetcry was Acts - c. 3lst aud 32d ",
changing the word ''three' to s'ten," and
seldom do we see in Bedford such crowd in
the house Of God as was assembled to hear
him. Not only were the members of the
Presbyterian congregation there 10 listen to
ghe last words Of their beloved Pastor, but
every other denomination was strongly rep
resented, for he has won as well the love of
his own people as the esteem Of the members
of other churches and of our citizens general
ly. The sermon was a most excellent and
impressive one that win be long remembered
by all who heard it. A deep feeling Of sad
ness seemed to pervade the hearts of all
present, and We do not suppose that there
was an individual in the house who does not
regret that this faithful minister, christian
gentleman, and good man has left us. Al
though we are attached to a different branch
Of the church we cannot but wish that he
could have remained with us, for he did much
good here. He has gone to wider field of
usefulness, where we trust his health may be
restored, and his labors abundantly blessed.

niversary Of JEFF. Davis famous proclamation ban
ishing all Union men from the South. The object
of the Philadelphia Convention being substantially
the that of the Davis proclamation, it is lit
ing that they should come on the same day. For
the purpose of affordng the delegates to Philadel-
pbia ready reference to the document, we reprint
it
.. Now, l Jefferson Davis, President of the Con-
ftderate States do issue this, my proclamation and
| DO hereby order and require every male citizen of
the United States of the age of fourteen years and
upwards, now within The Confederate States, and
adhering to the Government of the United States,
and acknowledging the authority Of the same, and
not beng citizen of the Confederate States to de
part from the Confederate States within forty days
And do warn all persons above described, who
shall remain within the Confederate States after the
expiration of said period of forty days that they
will be treated as alien enemies.

The President and the Governor.

The COpperhead papers of the North, and the
dirty rebel sheets of the South in the service of the
President represent him as having obtained for
latter as being ungrateful The facts are that Gov
Brownow holds the position IN spite Of johnson, and
in the face of his opposition to both his nomination
and election. Brownlow was nominated by Con-
vention of $40 delegates, without dissenting 1oice,
and running upon the General Ticket he ran 1900
votes ahead of the Legislative ticket nearly that
number. johnson, as Brownlow is able to prove,
was opposed to his nomination, and after his cleo
ton, at Washington, freely expressed himself in OPP
position to him. His dirty tools and lick-8pittes at
Washington write to Knoxville and Nashville set
ting forth boastingly that the President hostile to
Brownlow and that the latter has no friends at the
White House,
His rebel admirers in Tennessee have boosted
that he would set aside the present State Govern
ment of Tennessee, and appoint Military Cover
nor. He dare not do SO without subjecting himself
to impeachment and expulsion from Office. Tennes-
see and her Governor sustain the same relation TO
the Federal Union that the States of Massachusetts,
Ohio and Pennsylvania do, and their Governors,
and the President dare not usurp the control OF
either
Gov. Brownlow feels under no obligations to Pres
ident johnson for his election to the position he
holds. On the contrary, be feels that he was both
nominated and elected against bis wishes, and that
he s alone indebted to the loyal pesple of the State
But if be held the office by Johnson's permission,
he would resign before he would be bound hands
and feet by him, and turned to his new Rebel
Democratic organization. He has not patronage
enough to buy the Governor, nor influence enough
to carry the Governor against his convictions of
right.

Who For /? who Agalnsts

Who are most bitterly opposed to the present
Radical Congress2 JEFF. Davis is dead out against
it Robert E. Lee Besuregard, Bragg, Kirby Smith,
and all the whipped Generals, Colonies and Cap
tsins in the late rebel army are against it. Alexan
der H. Stephens all ex-rebel congressman and rebel
Legislators are against it. Andrew johnson and all
his rebelDemocratic supporters are against it. The
men in the South who conscripted Union men, who
burned down Union dwellings, robbed the Union
families of all they had, and made war hideous
along our borders, are against it. The sneaking,
Kissing Northern copperhead who creep after South
ern rebels for the sake of social power pecunary
reward, is against it. The Northern and Southern
Democracy, who are still bent upon the overthrow
of the Government and the restoration of slavery,
are against it. Every guerrilla chief highway rob
ber and whisky bloat of the rebel army, is against
it. Every traitor who edited rebel paper during
the war, and at its breaking out is against it.
Who are in favor of the Radical Congress, and
It's bold and patriotic course? Every lover Of his
country North and South are in favor of it. Every
unconditional Union man, who stands by his eoun-
try in opposition to another war, is in favor OF It,
Every man who prefers the loss of the negro to that
of the Union, is in favor Of it. Every mother that
has lost "a son every wife that has given her hus-
band; every one who visits the sacred graves that
| lie all over the land, and on every line of march
and every one who in tears and sorrow think and
sneak of their losses are with our brave and patr-
otto Congress, and will not be turned against that
body, az it is now the only hope of the country
Every clergyman, and every good man in the
churches, who believes that we have had stri.e
enough, and wishes no more Generalization, stand
by Congress and pray for its success and perseVer
ance. Every man in and out of the church, wht
thinks more of law and order, and of our Govern
ment, than he does of Office and spoils is for Con
gress. Every man not II the Johnson Rebel Con
spiracy to bring smother rebellion, is for Congress
and will stand by that body to the last
