FENHE proprietor having increased facilities for
4 manufacturing, is now prepared to FURNISH
all who are in want of good Washing Machine,
with the best one now in use. tits evident there
are two things besides cleansing clothes, which
Washing Machine must accomplish. In order
to be entirely satisfactory 1t must
Save Labor and Save the Garments,
for without these no other qualities will be suffi
cient to prevent its falling into disuse. Now
these are precisely the points on which the pro-
prietors of the Empire Clothes Washer rest the
claims ofthis machine, and they Challenge all
Competitors to produce a Machine which,
while 1t ceanses effectively, shall do it with so
little labor TO the operator, and with such per-
fest immunity to the garments rs this. OHth
two points this machine has
TAKEN THE FIRST PREMIUM AS A
FAMILY WASHER,
whenever exhibited, and for its perfection in
! these two points it is enjoying a popular favor
which can be claimed for no other washer known.
The other points on which this washer has no sn-
periOT are these:

mechanical principle upon which it acts is that

L premiums at our State Fair at Buffalo, one

to announce the unparalleled result of this stove
having taken the first premium at the New York
State Fairs for the last six consecutive years, not
withstanding it has been brought in competition
with all the best stoves made in the State, and
many from other States, and Notwithstanding the
persistent combined and determined efforts of
its competitors to defeatit. And its success is not
alone confined to this State. On the 18th of Sep
TENDER it was awarded two first premiums at the
New Jersey State Fair; and has also been awar-
ded the first premium at the Pennsylvania State
Fair, and has never been exhibited at a State
Fair and failed to take the first premium, and the
premiums il has taken at county fairs are too nu
merous to mention. And these awards are July
endorsed by the people throughout the country.
Its name has become a household word from
Maine TO California, and from the Great Lakes
to the Gulf Of Mexico; and the demand has be-
come 50 large that Notwithstanding our large ard
increased facilities for manufacturing, we are I'M

FOR SHERIFF,
Reaction.

Under this caption a recent Conservative
exchange let's of an editorial howitser in the
following style:
"Red mou,hed Republicanism has at
length been checked in its reckless career
Of tyranny and usurpatiou. The gloom and
despair, which for months shrouied the
country, indicating a renewal of the tragic
scenes of the late revolution, / now all sun
shine and hope" This superintendent amount
sunshine aud hope" is furnished by the re-
suit of the recent elections in Pennsylvania
Ohio, Indiana, and Iowa. The heart that can
be animated aad cheered by such meagIe
eneouragements as these political events JUS
tify, certainly possesses more sanguiress and
Indifference to misfortuues than fall to the
lot of humanity in general. These elections
are but SO many pall-bearers in the funeral
eortegs of conservative Democracy. They are
lights flashing upon the brow of the Egyp-
tian night which enshrouds this corrupt
party only to reveal its impending dissolution
and overthrow. This crest fallen and con-
quered army of political vagabonds, under
the leadership of Voorhees,, Yal!andigham,
the Woodes, johnson and others, for the last
half decade have been traversing a Saharaln
desert of gloom and despair. Not one drop
to cool their parching outlets, not one spot
Of verdure to redeem the monotony Of the
arid waste. But To- a mirage appears. Be-
fnrA than q nruata1 laka uhipnp,era 10 tho
beams of a broiling sun. Rank shouts to
rank, and in rapturous joy they onward
press-it is the lame old horrible desolation
of burning sand. So on they go, alinred and
deceived, farther7and farther into the will
dsrnsss depths of shame and infamy destined
70 perish at last, with no remembering friends
TO epitaph their lonely graves.
Democracy, the Pandora Jar which poured
upon the country the purple torrents Of war
and all the numberlesS woes which have and
Stll are affecting it, again control and direct
the administration of the country? Delusionl
follyl The idea exists only in the chimeri-
cal brain of the p]artiznn zesl)t, if i. exists
at all. The welfare of the people, the inter-
ests Of civilization the world over, destiny
and Heaven, all forbid. The death warrant
Of Democracy ives written hy the pen Of
fate, when in the progress of itS late armed
defiance Of the laws, it raVished virtue, exc
cuted innocence, plundsred the poor and the
rich, burned towns and cities, and desolated
and pauPeriEed the country. The people in
the neIt Presidential election wall execute
this warrant, and consign this the great.
est to the tomb Of all past fatalities. RePub-
at length unchecked by the nalig-
nant opposition of:his hydra head monstros-
ty will diIuse its liberal and humaniEing Q
