SPECIAL NOTICES.

b6~ This is truly the "age of progress
and the American people are, beyond doubt,
far ahead Of all others. This is clearly dem
Onstrated by the Sewing Machine which Isl
strictly speaking, an American invention.
In this branch of Manufacture the EMPIRE
SEWING MACHINE CO., office Gle Broad
way, New York City, stands pre-eminent.
Their "Improved Manufacturing Machine
has no rival. Itis built on sound mechani-
cal principles-is simple in construction
easily understood, and not liable to get out
of order.
Its sewing qualities, particularly on cloth
and leather, cannot be equaled and as such
we recommend II to our friends and the pub

In your paper of the 18th instant
we notice an extract taken from the
New Lisbon Patriot, stating that the
furnace OF the Leetonal Coal and Iron.
Company had produced in n week
two hundred aud one tuns Of iron, and
"that was said to be the most iron
ever madg in that time By any furnace
west Of tbe mountains"
The Informant of the Patriot was
not correct in making this last state.
ment, as we are aware that one OF
Messrs Shoehbetgsr & Blair, in the
Fifth ward in our city, made during
the week ending November 9th, two
hundred and twenty tons the week
following, two hundred and eleven
the week following, two hundred and
ten the week following, two hundred
and thirLsen and one-half and the
week following two hundred and
eleven tons ;the entire product for
FIVE weeks being one thousand and
sixty.hV toms.
We make this statement simply y
show that Pittsburg Il not willing 70
