The Howe Sewing Machine.

From the Rutland Herald,
In the notice of the Memorial Depart
ment in onr paper we have omitted to
mention the one object of attraction which
drew more attention than any other, and
that was the Howe Sewing Machine--not
the one of the present day, which has
for its inventor, the inner of praises from
millions and decked him with the Cross of
the Legion of Honor at the hands of Ma
poleon I'LL, as well as awarding to him a
gold medal for the best machine shown at
the Universal Exposition in 1867, and
hundreds of gold and silver medals from
State and National Societies at which it
has been cxhibited--but the original sew.
ing machine--thc first ever invented in
the world, by Elias Howe, jr., which,
through opposition and amid pcnury, he
brought to perfection never attained by
any other, and which the Courts have dc.
cidcd containc the motion which is the
base of that of all other machines. The
old one exhibited is simple in appearance
as compared with the perfected ones of
the present day, and though now 20 years
old will do as good and even better work
than many others. whose proprictors lay
claims to manufacture 'the best and only"
After looking at the workings Of the old
and the new, and seeing such perfect
and simple stitch made by them we can-
not refrain from expressing a decided pre-
ference for the Howe"
In 1868 and 1869, at the State Fairs

exceeding any other machine in the world.

The European War.

The war news of the week leaves the
situation little more favorable to thu
French. The Prussians evidently have a
large contract on their hands, and though
they are bringing forward great resources
aud developing vast strength, the tedious
operations of the last six weeks compare
unfavorably with the brilliant campaign
of month which eliminated in the great
victory at Sedan. a la
Though the Prussians have been cred
tied with the capture Of Orleans and some
minor successes during the week, the adj
vantage on the whole remains with the
| French.
The Prussians are obliged to maintain
great armies about Paris and Metz, to
say nothing of the less important places
they are besieging, and as they have pref.
ty nearly exhausted the country they
occupy. the gu stion of supplies for SO
large force must be embarrassing. They
keep up their armies, nevertheless, and
are generally successful in their raids
through the country.
If there were less Drag and buster a
mong the French people, and more real
harmony, their cause might be considered
as greatly improved. They have a large
army, such as it is, in Paris, and nearly
the whole country from which to draw re-
cruits, with the highest appeal that can
be made to patriotic peop!e-the exist
ence of their country. Every days de-
lay ought to give them new strength,
while it weakens the power of the in
vader.
But so far there has been little to show
that the respite has been improved as it
might and should have been. Even the
retirement of the Prussians out of range
of the guns of Paris is of no moment if
the city is to be starved into surrender,
instead Of taken by assault.
The main chance of the French is to
collect force large enough 10 raise the
siege or harass the lines of the enemys
communications, and thus make his posi-
ton untenabe: Of this there seems to
be no hope. .n.
The Prussians had the weight of the
worlds sympathy down to the victory
of Sedan, but there is no denying that they
have lost it by continuing the conflict since
that event, We hope that there is truth
in the report that they are now ready for
peace, and that peace may be
made by the mediation of the neutral
powers.
The slaughter Of brave men and the
desolation Of happy homes is bad enough,
even in the most justi6able war; where
nothing is to be gained, and no principle
is at stake, war is an offence against hui
manty, which all the nations should unite
to stop,

GEN. LEES DEATH AND ITS CAUSE A
Lexington tVa.) paper states that Gen.
Lee remarked two years ago to General
Pendleton that he did not expect to live
longer than two years more. The evening
he was taken sick he was unusually bright
and cheerful. The remote reason Of Gen.
Lees death was the long continuance of
depressing moral causes, commencing with
the wcighty responsibilities and anxietios
during the last year Of the war, and the
effect which the overthrow of the cause
he loved and the condition of the South
since has had upon him. lie bore all
with calm exterior, and devoted himself
to the duty Of the hour; but the fibres of
his heart were at last broken and the vi
tai spark fed. The proximate cause of
his death was mental and physical fatigue,
inducing nervous congestion Of the brain,
which gradually caused cerebral exhaus-
ton aud death.
