Editors Journal:
We are just now in the midst of our
annual political strife. Street-corner
discussions, political sparring, public
speeches, club meetings, &c, &C., al
most entirely engross the attention of
a majority of the people. There is
just such a general waking up of the
masses as we saw in the Fall of 1864,
when treason, beaten at the polls and
in the field, skunk away to a Temporal
ry hiding place. Again the infamous
hosts, under the same leadership, are
being marshalled fer defeat. 5tTo
The faces of loyal men are bright
ening, and the ranks are closing up
steady and strong for the coming
struggle at the ballot-box. ed u btes
The triumph of Duvall in Kentucky
over the gallant Hobson, and the re
joicing of the Indiana Democrats,
from the lowest and meanest street
corner politician, to Voorhees, the
leader, over the result, shows what
they purpose in their hearts.
Honest men ! who a month ago
boasted of their Democracy, are to-
day ashamed of the reasonable con-
Germ, and are consequently joining the
great Union party, which carried us
through the late war. against armed
treason.
The canvass is going On vigorously,
and the people are beginning to COM
prehend the plain issue, loyalty or
treason must triumph. The masses
are not for trusting the rebs who
fought us, and throwing away the
Yankees who shared our every battle
field. M

In calling attention to the EVANS
WILLIE j OURNAL as means for secur-
ing the diffusion of early and reliable
information, we do not forget that the
local papers should be supported Wig
orously. There is much local infor-
nation which can be obtained only
through them. Your prosperity de-
ponds much on the manner in which
they are supported. They should
therefore receive your first attention
1t is to the JOURNAL as leading pa
per, working in the interests of the
principles of the Union party for the
State, that we would call attention.
The conduct of the paper, political
ly, is too well known to- need any
publication of it's manner or the prin-
ciples which have governed it. It
will continue as before, without
change. ec1
In addition to the careful attention
to the Political Department of the
paper, special effort will be made
each department being placed in COM
petent hands-to make the JOURNAL
a complete compendium of news, a
pleasant fre-side companion, faith
full market guide, and in short COM
plete summary of events in the politi-
cal, social, religious, literary, scientific
and commercial world. With this
end in view, it will contain full re
cord of current news, market reports,
(foreign and domestic), the latest tele-
graphic dispatches, political intelli-
gence, literary, and domestic gossip,
choice poetry, editorials on current
topics, the most beautiful stories and
sketches, correspondence, State and
local intelligence, etc., etc. Due at
tention will also be given to educa-
tional art and agricultural matters.

For Crushing and Expressing the
Juice from Apples. Grapes, and
other Fiutt, at one and the same
operation.
FKYHE SUBSCRIBER HAS INVENT
H. ed and patented a Machine for crush
ing and expressing the juice from Apples
and other fruit at a single operation, there
by dispensing with screws, levers, presses,
and other cumbersome machinery, and
saving all the time and labor necessary to
separate the juices from the fruit by the
old process. This important result is at
tanned by novel arrangement of crushing
and pressing cylinders together in one
frame, entirely unlike any Machine ever
heretofore constructed for such purpose,
and which must eventually Supersede and
do away with all known processes for ex-
tracing juices from fruit.
The subscriber claims, and is ready to
demonstrate, that the following advan-
tageS are gained over all other Machines !:
list. With the same amount of power,
three times the quantity Of Cider or Wine can
be made in day than can be made by any
I'd. That from 25 to 40 per cent. more Cider
or Wine can be extracted from the same
amount of fruit
Sd. That it is more compact and simple
in its operation, stronger and less liable to
get out OF order; is adapted to hand or
other powers ; is portable, and can be
transported readily from place to place
can be driven by any kind of power, and
can be attached to any machinery.
4th. 1t is cheaper in proportion to its
capacity.
9Th. 1t is stronger, being constructed en-
tirely of iron.
9Th. In being adapted for expressing
juices from all kinds of fruit, including
AppLes, Grapes Rhu6arb, or Wine Pldnt
CftTrdrts, and Berries Of all kinds. -l
eth. That it is superior to any Root Gutter.
known for the purpose of crushing roots of
ali kinds, for feeding stock, quicker, easier,
and better than any other Machine.
Sth. That it expresses the juice from An
piles or other fruit the moment they are
crushed, wherein lies the great secret of
making good Cider or Wine.
9th. That it does not grind or break the
seed of any kind of fruit; thereby doing
away with a great objection which is
urged against all other Machines
