In the Market House this morning, a wager
having been laid in regard to the correct
nessof Andy's scales (all of which was a
joke, however, and to ascertain whowould
be the loser the Market Master was called
to decide the matter. Ten pounds of meat
was very nicely and evenly weighed, on
Andy's scales, and according to agreement
Mr.. Knccht was to weigh the same on his
standard scales, the result of which was
that both scales were the same to the least
fraction and Andy consequently won the
bet and the joke was turned the other way.

The Florence Sewing Machine

In no previous year has there been
such strong competition among the lead
ing sewing machine manufacturers of
this country and Europe as the present.
At all the principal exhibitions and
fairs they met and contested for the
premium oil family sewing machines,
and the result was unanimously in
favor of the Florence Reversible Feed
Lock Stitch Family Sewing Machine.
1t received the first and highest prize
as the best family sewing machine at
the following exhibitions, viz: EXPOSE
ton Universelle, Paris; American Insti-
tute Fair. New York; New England
Agricultural Fair, at Providence, K. L.;
The New York State Fair, at Buffalo:
The Great Annual Fair of New Eng
land, viz: that of the Mechanics Asso.
citation, at Lowell, Mass; and at the
Fair of the Maryland Institute, at Bal
timore, which closed a four weeks ses-
sion on the 18th of November, the supe-
riority of the Florence was again con-
firmed by the committee on Sewing
Machines, who unanimously awarded
it the "gold medal" the highest prize
the Institute confers. 1t would seem
as if this succession of triumphs should
be sufficient to convince every unpreju-
diced person of the great superiority of
the Florence over all others as Family
Sewing Machine. g.
