aMowersu Again.

Mr.. EDlToR:-Through the col
umns of your widely circulated pa
per, we wish to ventilate the Clipper
mower, and enquire where it obtain
ed such world wide reputation, as
to need no testimonials to effect
sales Was it st the Great World $
Exposition at Paris in 1867, where
report says the Wood Mower took
the first prize, and gold medal? The
same is true at most ali the National
and State Fairs. where there has been
fair and impartial trials, and the best
means for testing machines. Fer
haps it may have been at the fields
of Chas. Gee, in Gallia county If
so, we all for the judges report, and
the particulars.
And why so much i'll temper shown
at few testimonials published in
favor of the Wood? Was this not
in justice, to meet the boasting ad-
vertisements and references to the
Clipper. "a machine which recon-
mends itself at first sight" and never
fails to make such mowers as the
"Wood and Climax look insight
cant" Where, oh, where, is your
Buckeye, and much boasted Cham
pion. The referees of the Clipper
are all first class farmers, and prac-
tical men, who have worn out tive or
three machines 3" Let US say here,
had they been so fortunate as to pur
chase a Wood, Judging from their
age, they would not have worn out
so many machines, but would have
saved corn, oats, and horsefesh.
Are We further to infer that those
"whe have never owned machine"
but have always employed some one
to NOW their grass, not capable Of
judging the relative merits of ma
chimes, or is he, who happened to
own Clipper, the best judge, having
tried no other?
The hackers of the Clipper were
quite safe "coming down with their
greenbacks, for they well knew we
were not gamblers nor versed in the
game of brag, but were won't TO rely
on the statement Of good upright
men like Mr. Keller and others.

HENDsRsoNs' LOOM.
PERSONS WISHING TO PURCHASE
A GOOD PRACTICAL HAND
LOOM,
HENDERSONS, LOOM.

THIs LOOM treads the Treadles, throws
Il the Shuttle, lets off the Web, and
takes up the Cloth by simply moving the
baton back and forth. It weaves Jeans,
Blankets Tweeds, Satinet, Kersey, Plain
Cloth, ,Toweling. Birdeye-D Diaper, Carpets, DC :,
dc. The weaver has only to change tie Pins
in the Tresdle Wheel to make the different
kinds Of Cloth. By an arrangement of the
machinery of this Loom, that no other has,
the weaver can make as much or as little of
the Shed when the Baton is coming forward
as is required, completing the Shed as the
Baton goes back; or, it can all be made as
the Baton comes forward, for the purpose of
weaving Woolen Warp that clings.
By this arrangement, the Filling is always
beat up after the Cross is made, Making bet
ter Cloth and better Selvage then can be
made by the open Shed, because, it prevents
the Filling from being drawn out at the edge
towards the shuttle after it is beat up.
These looms are made of the best black
walnut lumber, got up in the best of style
and oil finished. They are furnished with
$50 of the best Wire Heddles, one Steel
Reed, any hundred desired; one Wheel Shut
tie OF the best manufacture, twelve Bobbins,
Temples, Rathe, DC, all complete, ready for
weaving. They are made to weave 40 inches
wide.
Persons wishing these looms. in the coun-
ties Of Gallia, Jackson, Vinton, Ross and
Lawrence, can be accommodated by sending
their orders to me. Warranted to perform
as recommended. Can be seen at Fenner's
building.

DoNATIoN.--The Rev. WALTER
MITCHELL and wife, of the 1st Pres
byterian Church, have donated
thirty-six volumes to the Library
of the Sabbath School, connected
with that Church. This donation
is the practical result of the happy
thought, conceived by them, that the
little private fund of their recently
deceased daughter ANNA, amounting
to about twenty seven dollars, which
she had been saving from time to
time, from the gifts Of her friends,
to invest in some permanent
manner for herself, would suit
her wishes best invested in this
way. She loved the Sabbath School,
and often lamented that the Library
could not be more frequently re-
plenished with good books for the
children. Finding great enjoyment
in Sabbath School books herself, she
wished others to have them also.
The selection is choice one, and
we trust they will prove a blessing
to the children. The motto inscrib-
ed in them is,
"Yours in Love,
ANNA"
