Money to loan at $50 main st. ss.t


A wife who has been employed for q
mouth making a set Of shirts is always at
discount as regards cheerfulness when
her husband comes home and hopes 10
see her bright and happy; her forefpger
gets rugged and rough, and is in keeping
with her temper. The toll, the uuinter-
estiug toll of drawing the needle through
the hundreds of yards of plain sewing re-
quired to keep the clothes of large
family decent, must have an effect upon
the spirits of the workers. Now, we
shall have none of this dissgreesben
when q sewing machine is more COM
mon in every house than q piano.
There ia something positively fssci-
mating in the click, click of the
merry machine peedle; and the sense
of progress, as yard after yard
of sewing streams out of the apparatus,
absolutely excites, rather than depress
the spirits, as the common needle sewing
does. Then, again, the manner in which
the operator can turn the work about,
making curves, ovsls, angles or any evo-
lutions, absolutely giving sense of
power and liberty which the sewer never
felt before Some Of the movements of
the new Silent Wheeler Il Wilson ma
chine are marvellous; for instance: The
hemmer is the prettiest continuance i'm.
aginable. You see raw edge of linen
placed upon an edge of metal curved in
a slightly spiral manner, and the next
thing you see is the raw edge tucked un-
der and hemmed with the rapidly
advancing needle. Handkerchief are
thus hemmed almost before you
can look round. What can bring
greater joy into the family circle
than such a machine ? Independently
of the pleasure felt in working, consider
for moment what its advent means. 1t
means emancipation from the most
abject drudgery; it means increased time
for ell occupations requiring the exercise
OF the mind; time for the cultivation of
all the elegsncies, arts and pleasures
which tend toward comfors and refine
ment. The purchase of one at this time
is rendered comparatively easy by the
system of monthly payments, which
every one can avail themselves of at the
Office iu this city, No. 256 Second street,
opposite Court Park.

In this Court. which has been engaged
for about week in the trial of the case
Of the State vs. Z G. Pattiaon end r. Il.
Thomp son, on 40 indictment for the
Big Creek tragedy" the case was, on
motion of the Attorney General, sban-
doned. This case is the counterpart of
the Dickens case, which occupied the
time of the Criminal Court and the
types of the Avalanche for one solid
month-but which the jury disposed
of in less than one hour after it
was committed to them. These proceed
ings may do very we'll to crafty the am
bition of prosecutors and well paid at
torneys, but they are great annoyance
to the business community, summoned
daily to serve on juries, at an expense to
their business and to the neglect of their
families; and at the same time they i'm
pose an expense of from one to five thou
sand dollars each on the county and
State. o for epeedier and less expen-
sive method of administering justice.
