Silk Mills Seized by the Governm cnt.
The Dale silk mill at Patterson has been
attached by the Government, the owners
having, the revenue officers allege, de-
frauded the revenue of $4,000, by making
false returns in 1861 and 1862. The mill,
which is most extensive, is to be kept rum
ming in charge of an agent of the Govern
ment.
Reported Removal of n Collector.
The removal of Collector Thomas E.
Smith, of the Sth, district, is currently re-
ported. The specific charge upon which
| the removal is said to have been effected.
is that in July, 500 barrels of whiskey were
shipped from Dubuque, Iowa, consigned
to the Collector of the Sth district. -.
To cancel the bonds upon which this
whisky was shipped, it was necessary for
Smith to certify that the lot had entered a
bonded warehouse in his district. This he
did, stating it had been entered in the
bonded warehouse of S. G. Borham & Co.
the night before that establishment was
destroyed by fire, 18th of July. The in
vestigation showed, however, that the
whisky had not time to reach this city
from the date of shipment from Dubuque,
and the identical S03 barrels were traced to
other places.
Collector Smith, although held RESPONSE
BILE for this certifcation, had no pecuniary
| interest in the transaction, but was proba-
! bly, made the victim of collision.
Seizure.

That balmy sleep his pinions took.
And fed DER vale and hill.

The handle of her brosm.

To kindle him fire.

But kindled to his ire.-

To feed his pet Canary birds.

THE CONCERT LAST NIGHT. We were
pleased to see so large a number in attend
ance on the concert OF the National Union
Guard at the Opera House last night and
we are satisfied that the delicious music
amply repaid them for their visit. The
music was simply glorious. The instru-
mental quartettes by the De Bariot Club
were rendered with their usual excellence;
but what shall we say of the violin solo OF
Prof. Schoppelrei, of the piana solo by
Miss Caroline Schneider, and the bass solo
by Frillman? Words fail to express the
delight they gave us. Miss Fannie Smiths
solo, "Of Thee" did not strike us as being
exactly the sort of thing to display her
voice to perfection. Her upper notes are
clear, soft and warbling, but her lower
notes are rather thin and wanting in force
though she has much better voice than
nine-tenths of amateur concert singers
Prot. Neave's cornet solo was pretty good
for cornet solo. We don't fancy thai
sort of thing, except it be made up o.
flourishes and tricks. The concert, taker
as whole, was most decided success, anG
adds largely to the well-won honors of the
performers, while the exchequer of the
company cannot but be healthily affected
by the accession of the stamps gathered
in.

SEWING MACHINE FACTs.-The following
interesting statistics we gather from III
quarterly returns, made, we believe, under
oath, by the several manufacturers of sew
ing-machines throughout the United
States. The figures which we present, and
which we have been at some pains to COL
lect, show at glance the wonderful growth
and great Importance of this branch of
American manufactures. 1t will be OBJ
served that one company alone has pro-
duced and sold within the year over forty
three thousand machines. 1t is somewhat re-
markable that. during the recent stagna-
ton in trade, this business has been but
slightly, if at all, affected. But below are
the figures in detail:

as per quarterly returns, for the year end

when he was but 8 year old, and was taken into
the family OF his brother, with whom he subsp.
quently learned the trade of iron founder and
machinist, at Catskill, New York. He soon
became an expert in pat,ern-makIng, and the
castings from his worB, young as he was were
the smOothest turned out from the shop. He
obtained access to books on subjects connected
with his business, and studied them diligently
About the year 1886 he went into business on
his own account, at Prattsvllle, New York. A
few years after this he went to Savannah. Ga.
with shmgie machinery. Returning to New
YORK city he engaged IN the Manufacture of
artificial limbs, and subsequently in making hav
and cotton presses of his own invention He
was also engaged there as a mechanical engi-
neer. About the year 1849 he came to Phila-
delphia and opened a patent agency office in
Dock street, and at the same time commenced
the publication of the Banner of the Union
rms paper he continued until 1853, when he
removed TO- Catsklll, New York, sold It out, and
commenced the american Edgie While pnb-
hshing this paper he was deprived OF his press
and immediately commenced his inventions in
printing machinery. Working hard he lifted up
a press ON " which to strike Off the next CODY of
the paper; 1t was 'cooden cylinder, worked
by a hand crank.
After this he turned his whole attention to
the invention OF mis- ingenious machine, In
1856 he went to New York city, and spent three
years there in constructing his first machine
and III trying to perfect it and the feeding appa-
ratus referred to. In 1859 he removed 10 Pitts

others, and commenced building printing
machines according to his latest model. There
are nine OF these machines now in use. As

at the same time he possessed great force of
character and will. He was never disheartened
by difficulties, delays, or DISTINCTIONS. BY his
genius.
