Weed's FAMILY seWIrg MachIne.

Famous for its simplicity and dura-
bility. See what others say of it.:
" Simplicity is great desideratum in
a Sewing Machine. We do not recol-
lect being more foroibly impressed
with this idea than when, a few days
since, we saw it demonstrated at the
salesrooms Of the Weed Sewing
Machine Company. Their machine
seems to US we'll worth the candid,
critical examination of every lover of
mechanical art. It's system is that of
direct motion, depending less upon
the action and reaction of springs
than any other we have seen.
" We noticed with great satisfao-
ton the absence of all wires, springs,
cranks, cog.wheels, curved needles,
and other membranes, without
which it has heretofore been sup
posed sewing machine could not be
constructed. - Episcopal Methodist.

THE RAILROAD ELECTION.
The Subscription to the Carmi Rail.
road Carried.
Evansville Rakes Another Forward
Movement

Yesterday was election day, and the
weather, although not very clear, was
quite comfortable and pleasant. The
election was for the purpose Of deeid-
ing whether Evansville should sub
scribe $500, 600 to the capital stock of
the Evansville, Carmi & Paducah
Railroad or not. Nobly did our
energetic citizens answer. Old
fogyism is a thing of the past
in this city, and the live bust
ness men have instilled their go-ahead
and emphatic spirit into the minds of
those who it would hardly be sup
posed could be induced to turn from
ancient prejudices. On the fifth day
of last August, this county voted,
overwhelmingly, to donate s242. 900
towards the construction Of a railroad
into Southern Illinois. The city has
sustained the action of the county,
and now says to all the world, We
want to improve our city; we want
trade and commerce; we are willing to
tax ourselves to build railroads; we
know we have unsurpassed natural ad
vantages, and intend to build up a
great city here. The advertisement
of the vote Of yesterday is alone worth
thousands and tens of thousands Of
dollars to US. We are extending
our hands to the richest regions of
trade, and hands that want to deal
with US warmly grasp ours in return.
What a pleasant picture to eontem-
plate.
Although the result is no more
than we anticipated, yet We feel good
over the result, and we feel like pub
fishing the good news to all the world.
Let us ever advance, and, in few
years, Evansville viii be a great COM
megciai and manufacturing city.
The opposition was so slight that
only light vote was polled. The
following are the figures for and against
the subscriDtiop.

Commissioner of Internal Revenue
has just made the following decision,
which will be found Of interest to
our butchers and sausage makers:
The special tax Of butchers is i'm
posed exclusively with respect to the
selling of butchers meat, and not for
the preDdratiOgs or manufacture Of tho
same. and when any butcher, there
fore, engages in the manufacture or
preparation for sale Of any article,
such as sausages, minoe- meat, cured
hams, etc, which have separate and
distinct commercial value in the mare
ket as such, ne should be regarded as
a manufacturer within the meaning Of
the Law, and be required to pay spe-
cial tax as such, without reference to
the fact that he may have paid tax
as a butcher.
