Served them Right.

The Logan Republican estimates that
$1,000 has been sent east from that place
for counterfeit money to the bogus firms
which send back scrap iron, pine chips,

parties have inflicted and paid their own
fines, besides taking lesson in the only
school where they can learn, according
to the proverb.

The Howe Sewing Machine.

We should judge from the number
manufactured and sold week, in the
United States, that this machine was the
most reliable for all kinds of sewing now
in use. Twenty-four hundred week

standing this large number the demand
for them is such, that the company have
been compelled to enlarge their Factory
and when completed will turn out 500
machines per day. lift.

A Curiosity.

The Mt. Vernon Republican says
In digging his cellar, which is mostly
cut from the solid sand rock, Tom Con-
nor at Fredericktown, came to some
thing that looks like the body of tree
about two feet in diameter, and it is laid
bare for several feet. The bark is plainly
seen on top, and every thing looks as il
it were the body of tree that has be-
come completely pctrified, and a part OF
the stone surrounding it. This is worth
the examination of the curious, who
NAV happen to be in Fredericktown.

But Johnny liked my answer we'll.
