CONFLICT AND CONQU EST.

Courage, brother, do not STUMBLE
Though thy path be dark as night;
There's star to guide the humble,
Trust in God and do the right.
Let the road be rough and dreary,
And its end far out of sight,
Foot it bravely, strong or weary,
Trust in God and and do the right
Perish policy and cunning,
pe-;sh all that fears the light,
whether loosing, whether winning,
Trust in God and do the right.
Trust no party, sect or fashion;
Trust no leaders in the fight;
Hut in every word and action,
Trust in God and do the right.
Trust no lovely forms Of passion;
Friends may look like angels bright;
Trust no custom, school or fashion,
Trust in God and do the right.
Simple rule and safest guiding
Inward peace and inward might,
Star upon our path abiding,
Trust in God and do the right.
Some will hate thee, some VIII love thee'
Some will fatter, some will slight;
Cease from man and look above thee,
Trust in God and do the right.

THE SUBSCRIBERS RESPECTFULLY
INVITE THE ATTENTION OF
Dealers, Country Merchants, Farmers.
AND ALL INTERESTED IN THE MANU-
FACTURE OF CIDER,
To the superior merits of the above mentioned
Machine. 1t possesses great advantages over the
old style Mills now in use, and needs only q trial
to satisfy any one that it will perform all that it
is recommended TO do.
The following are some Of its principal fea
tureS
LIST. II has Rotary Iron Knife Cylinder, which
works into stationary row of cast teeth IN the
side of the Hopper, by which Apples are cut into
fine pieces,
End 1t has two Crushing Rollers with angular
flutes, which receives the cut Apples from the
Cutting Knife Cylinder, and by which they are
effectually crushed to pomace.
The cutting and crushing process in this Mill
is its great point ofexcelence over allother Mills,
that only CRATE the Apples.
3rd. 1t will do more work in given time with
less power than any other Mill now in use, grind
ing finer and more uniformly.
4th. 1t is Wine, as well as a Cider Mill, and
in fact the only one we know of that Will prop
erly grind Grapes without breaking the seeds.
9Th. For simplicity, compactness, strength,
economy of power, and quality OF work per-
formed. it CHALLENGES COMPARISON.
1t is at once s'the Machine" so greatly needed,
and should be owned by every Farmer, Gardner
and Fruit Grower in the country.
We have sold several thousands of these Ma
chimes during the last three years all of which
have given entire satisfaction to the purchasers.
We make two sizes of the above style Mill The
large size is intended to be run either by hand or
horse power, and is oflarge capacity. The small
size is for hand power, and is suitable for those
who only make moderate quantity OF Cider or
Wine. This size. however can be run by power,
and when run to its full capacity, will make a
| large quantity Of Cider, per day
| In the event of our having good Apple crop
! this season, which we have every hope that we
will, as the prospect is at this time very fatter-

orders will be more sure of being supplied.

power they have no equal. The futed roll is the
important feature that regulates the feeding of
the MILL The ridges seize upon the cane as soon
as presented, thus relieving the labor so often
necessary to force the stalks to an entrance be-
tween smooth rolls, and at the same time secures
its direct passage to the discharge roll. They al
so break the woody fibre at short intervals, and
thus rupturing the cells cause the more ready
flow of the Juice We also have horizontal mills,
for horse, water and steam power.

baltimore Election.

An election was held in Baltimore on
Wednesday, on the propriety of calling a
State and Constitutional Convention. The
ballot was classed as fair but not full
vote. The entire vote cast in the city on
the issue was 2O,136, of which 11,O13 were
for, and 9, 23against. which givesa majority
of 1880 for the holding of Convention
This vote was polled, and is to be taken, as
deliberate expression of the opinions of
the people of Baltimore on this subject,
yet it falls far short of the mum Der of names
recorded on the poll registry, which shows
q total of 29, $50 names. The deficiency of
the vote, as compared with the record OF
the registry, is an evidence of great and
almost criminal apathy on the part of the
citizens Of Baltimore, that in such o crisis

ordered him to halt, but knowing the heavy
