PRIZE MEDALS FOR SEWING MA
OHINEs-VVHAT ARE THEY WoRTH?-
Ever since the award of premiums at
the Paris Exposition, the public have
been bored with statements concerning
the claims Of the Howe, the Florence,
tho Weed, the Wheeler s. Wilson, and
the Grover & Baker manufacturing
companies to the first honors (2) of that
affair. The machines OF each of these
companies are claimed TO be the best
because the manufacturers received a
medal or ribbon to that effect. Asso
many obtained the same prize we can't
see where the hOnors come in, Now.
the Singer Sewing Machine was not
placed on exhibition ut the Worlds
Fair at Paris, for tho very good reason
that 1t does not depend upon medals or
ribbons for Its success. The merit
OF this machine rests upon its ever
faithful performance of all that Is claim
ed for 1t, and having been adequately
used In all parts of the civilized world,
and awarded the peoples VerdicL in its
favor, it can we'll afford to stand aside
and let its feeble rivals find what thew
can in the worthless awards of fair COM
mittees. 1t is fact that the Singer
Machine has been less advertised than
y
ed that only last year (lS67,) for exam
pie, five thousand more machines OF the
Singer patents were sold than any other
sewing machine now before the public,
The simple and natural increase of the
business OF the Singer Company for 1867
was seven thousand machines, which
increase is equal to three times the entire
sales of the Empire Company, and
nearly Twice the eatiTe sales of the Weed
Company tor the same period. In the
same year the business OF the Wheeler
Il Wilson Manufacturing Company
(eH or twelve thousand. These are
facts which will stand investigation,
but we doubt whether the manner in
which medals aud ribbons OF the Fairs
are obtained will bear any scrutiny al
all. Wonderful improvements have
been made in the Singer Sewing Ma
chine, and it Is now the best machine
for family aud manufacturing pur-
poses. It's sales in this vicinity are
already very large, and the demand is
still increasing. 1t is light, durable,
simple and nOiseless, and ought to find
place in every family in the land.

Agents, l6l Main street,

ington, Martha Washington. 1t was
sublime in it's simplicity-a noble trib-
ute to the simple republican lnstitu-
tiOns OF our country. And to that
shrine, not to worship butto reverence,
would patriotic pilgrims press as
long as the great principles Of freedom
endured upon the American continent.
It was remarkable that during the
four years of bloody strife through
which we had passed, this spot, by
both parties, had been held as neutral
ground. Not a shot, nor a shell, nor
any vestige OF the rude shock of war
bad rested upon that sacred spot. It
was fitting, 1t was appropriate, that
they should devote that day to the
memory of this great and good man.
He hoped the day would be always held
in remembrance by every lover OF his
country. There was only one possible
contingency that could arise when 1t
would be inappropriate and unbecom-
ing for the American people TO rever-
that would be when they had bartered
away their freedom, despised their
liberties. and proved recreant to the
glorious principles which he fought
for and thought. for. BE hoped that
day would never come. But IL 1t did
come it would be a shame, an insult, a
Ieproach TO the name OF Washington

thanked the audience for their attention.
He assured them he had not expected
to address them; what he had said was
the Inspiration of the moment. The
gallant general sat down amid much
cheering.
President Pendleton, in the name of
the society, the orators, and the Fac.
uIty OF the College, thanked the audi
ence for their attention and good order.
Having pronounced the benedic ion,
no dismissed them.
All the Orations were excellent, and
left no room for criticism. The speak
ers were deservedIy applauded at the
conclusion OF each speech. The Beth
any string band enlivened the pro-
ceedings with music. AS the company
departed, rockets were fired, and FIRE
balls were thrown with very pleasing
effect. Everything passed off pleas
antly and prOftably.
