New FAMILY Machine.

Which has been over ten years in preparation,
and which has been brought to perfection regard
ess of time, labor or expense, is now conf
denty presented to the public incomparably
the best sewing machine in existence.
The machine in question is simple, compact,
durable and beautiful. 1t is quiet, light-running
and capable of performing range and variety Of
work never before attempted upon single ma
chine using either silk, twist, linen cotton
thread, and sewing with equal facility the very
finest and coarsest of materials, and anything be-
tween the two extremes, in the most beautiful and
substantial manner. Its attachments for hem
ming, braiding, cording, tueking, quilting, fel-
ling, trimming, binding, &c, are novel and prac-
teal, and have been invented and adjusted espe-
cially for this machine.
New designs of the unique, useful and popular
Folding Tops and Cabinet eases peculiar to the
machines manufactured by this company have
been prepared for enclosing the new machine
These are gotten up in every variety OF wood,
such as black walnut, mahogany, rosewood, and
the like and from the plaipest to the most Ella
borate pattern and finish,-the machines them
selves being more less highly ornamented, to
correspond with the cabinets or tables for which
they are intcRded.

Convention to nominate a candidate for
Congress in this district, met in this
city to-day at the capitol. A division
occurred in regard to the admission of
delegates from Wilson county, where
upon the supporters of John Lawrence
seeded. They held meeting at the
Market House and nominated him as q
candidate. The delegation that re-
manned nominated John Trimble. The
great mass ofthe delegates were niggers
Lawrence is from Ohio, and has been
here in the employ of the Freedmen's
Bureau for some time. Trimble is a
native Union man. The contest between
them will be determined by the Niger
vote.
But little progress has been made in
the impeachment court. Two witness
ses on the part of the prosecution were
examined to-day.

New York specials.

NEW YORK, May 16.-The Herald's
New Orleans special says all the banks
in New Orleans have sustained heavy
drafts, consequent on the financial
trouble prevailing there. A heavy run
WAS made, yesterday, on the City Ma
tional Bank, and its condition became
at one time quite critical, but private
capitalists came forward and advanced
money enough to pay all demands.
The Herald'S Leavenworth, Kansas,
special says: The Republican State
Central Committee OF Kansas met at
Topeka yesterday, for the purpose of
arranging for canvass of the State on
the platform ofimpartial suffrage, when
several negroes who participated ex-
pressed themselves as bitterly opposed
to female suffrage, and considerable
discussion ensued between the friends
ofthe two questions.
The Times special says a delegation
of Louisianians called on the President
yesterday and were informed by him
that Attorney General Stansberry's
opinion on the registration would soon
be issued. They applied for an order
TO restrain General Sheridan from clos
ing the registration of voters in accord
ance with his recent orders and were
informed that orders would be issued
which will enable all who desire to
register and are not disqualified by the
military bill to do SO.

cans of the country for assistance and

every State should Immediately reor-
ganlze for the remaining elections of
81, especially in the States which have
never before recognized, as the only
just basis of government and the equal
and inalienable rights of man. They
say they desire to prosecute system
attic and thorough canvass of the South
ern States by the most efficient speak
ers of both races, and to second their
efforts by the distribution of documents
aims of the Republican party. They
therefore appeal for aid, directly and
personally to the party, asking the rich
to give generously, and the poor to give
what they can afford. All letters and

WASHINGTON, May 16.-The opinion
of Attorney General Stansberry on the
reconstruction acts will, 1t is expected,
be ready for PRONUNCIATION this week.
All the points have been decided upon
and approved by the President and his
cabinet. The utmost pains have been
taken to render clear and beyond doubt
the meaning of the various theories of
those acts. The preparation of the doc
ument has involved in examination the
laws of the Southern States, in order to
understand properl y what classes of
persons are affected by the congress
siOnal action, and to afford a guide by
which this may be carried into execu-
ton with the least possible degree of
embarrassment to all parties concerned.
The Treasury Department having
been advised that large quantities of
peas were being imported from Canada
oStenSibly for domestic use as dried
peas, but used as seeds, the Collectors
OF Customs of all the lake ports have
been instructed to regard all whole
peas as seeds, as charged on them a
duty of 80 per cent. prescribed by stat
are kiln dried and unit for seeding pur-
poses.
Eighty-five midshipmen will begrad
uated at the ensuing examination at
the Naval Academy. Fifty or sixty are
to be placed on the steamship Minneso-
ia for tx months cruise for practical
instruction.
James h. s. Sehurman, the colored
messen er of the Comptroller of the
Currency, was arrested and under ex-
animation to-day on charge of the lar
ceny of 81, 600 in bills OF the First Ma
tional Bank of Jersey City, and forgery
of the signatures OF the officers OF the
bank. 1t is believed that this is but
portion of the amount of national
bank notes distracted by Schurman,
as he was confidential messenger of the
Comptroller, and it was part his duties
to handle these notes and carry them to
the express Office. He Is supposed to
be only tool of other parties who fill
ed in forged names.
