only hold out this year. the peace party of the
North would sweep the Lincoln dynasty out or po-
litical existence. He seems to have thought that
our cause was sinking. and feared We would SUBJ
NIT, which would OF course. be runous to his par

OF Pennsylvania. for that would unite all parties at
the North. and so strengthen Lincoln's hands that
he would be able 70 crush all opposition, and
70 trample upon the Constitutional rights OF the
people.
Mr.. Vallshdighsm said nothing 70 indicate that

But We may say that we have long known Colonel
Ma.hey as gentleman. possessing the very best
qualifications for the Office for which he is spoken.
Entering first the 18th and then the 18th regi-

With due respect TO the feelings of the friend
who authorized the above announcement. and with

for their kind mention Of me. must say that am
not a candid ,te before the Harrison County Demo

consented. bu, rceen, develonmcnts. rs made man
ifest in the action Of the Kentucky Democratic
Conv enton. and in the speeches OF prominent In
diana Democrats who were in attendance. have
convinced me that am not the kinl OF q Demo

Ny Democracy is of more ancient schooling
than that which teaches ils devOtecs 20 hold out

Prominent among the mechanical triumphs of
this most Ingenious age, common honesty compels
us to notice the Empire Sewing Machine, com.
mended as justly styled perfection itself Useful
as have been the various sewing machines, from
time to time presented to the public, each one of
them has been cursed with some radical defect
which detrscts from general utility. Warned By
the experience of his predecessors the inv entor of
the Empire Machine has produced an instrument,
combining all the advantages for which others are
vaunted. and obviating every defect which can be
attributed 10 them by the most fassidious critic.
The Empire Machine is marvellous combina
ton of simplicity, economy and perfect workman.

Of order, noiseless, and easy of operation. Its
mechanical contrivance is such az to secure sta
biity, freedom from accident, and accuracy as to
workmanship. By the use of the patented shuttle
and straight needle. it makes q stitch, which can
neither rip nor ravel, while, at the same time, il
can operate perfectly upon every species Of materi
al from leather to csmbric. with threads of cotton,
linen or silk, from the finest TO the coarsest mem
Der.
Asthe Empire Machine is gradually supplanting
its more antique rivals, no one in want of useful
instrument of this description. be he or she tailor
coachmaker. dressmaker or seamstress, can do
otherwise than secure one Of these economical and
inimitable machines. suited alike for family and
manufacturing purposes. The office OF the EN-
pire Manufacturing Co. Is at No. s36 Broadway,
New York City, where they are now supplying
these Empire Machines at prices far below the
real value of the instruments.
