From the above figures it will be seen that
our rivals in trade are far behind us, that the
popularity Of what is known as our NEW
FAMILY SEWING MAO CHINE is steadily and
largely Increasing. We are not so vain as TO
suppose that these large sales are due to supe
rior business capacity so much as t. the merits
of or machines, as well rs the observation of
those who buy and use, and are personally in
terested in comparing the merits OF the differ
ent machines before making a selection.
Few have denied, in fact it has been the hab-
il Of sewing machine dealers, TIL recently, 10
speak in laudation Of our manuf curing ma
chimes but in the same breath TO deny the
merits of cur machine for family sewing. Il
was usual TO say 30 n lady looking for a sew
ing machine, "Il madam, you want manu-
featuring machine, the Singer is the best" a.
If We made but one kind Of machine only, and
had no 0Rtly sewing machine at all, though
our -Nclr family" was our greatest triumph
anu even then the tayorite, ever ready and
never worrying seams tress Of many a well req
ulatcd household Our machine. however, told
ia own story in the great range aud variety of
excellent and beautiful fimily sewing which ii
is capable OF doing. and the sales show that its
story was not entirely Gisbeleved Or we would
not have sold last year 1883 machines, being
more than twice as many machines as there are
words in the English language, and all this has
been accomplished with little aid from exhibit
lions and fairs, excepting only the worlds fair

where we received the great award of the high

A Singular Railroad Accident.

The Lancaster pa Examiner says:
This morning the Pacific express,
west, which passes through this city
at 2:35, met with a singular
accident at the junction-Landis-
vile. The Reading road crosses
the Pennsylvania road at this point
and train Of empty coal cars was
standing across the latter track, About
this time the Pacific express came dash
ing along and before the engineer had
time to check the speed otthe locomo-
tive it had dashed through a coal
car and was tearing along at its
regular speed toward Harrisburg,
with only the loss OF q cow-catcher
The engineer seeing that no harm
had been done to any one, did not stop
after he had safely gone through the
debris. This can be classed as most
miraculous escape from what might
have been a terrible disaster, but the
speed at which the train was going was
very swift. The wrecked car was struck
amid wheels and broken completely
into atoms, the splinters flying in all d.
rections, but luckily hitting no one.
The shock was distinctly felt by the
railroad employees who were sitting on
the frost and back ends OF the coal
train, but they either did not know the
time at which the train was due, or else
the Waterman at the station displayed
great ignorance in not having his flag
lamps hung out. .s

THE Right Rev. James Gibbons, D.
D., was installed Roman Catholic Blsh"
Cd of Richmond, Va, in the Cathedral
of that city. on Sunday. The ceremo-
MES was conducted with all the solem-
nifty, pomp and dignity which the Ro-
man ritual prescribes and the discipline
of the Church requires for observance on
such sacred occasions. The scene
which was witnessed inside the church
edifice was very grand and effective in
the cause of Christianity. His trace
the Most Rev. Archbishop, the Prlnnate
Metropolitan of Baltimore, with many
other eminent prelates Of the Church
were present. as were vast consregs-
ton OF the laity, including the mem
hers of several organized relief and aid
societies, in regalia and with banners.
The newly Installed Bishop preached q
forcible sermon, during the course OF
which he proclaimed that the free ar
Of America is NEST favorable 70, the
progress and unity of ths Roman Cath
olic faith and ito congregations.

Lincoln and Seward.

One day a lady came to Mr.. Stewards
office and handed him scrap Of paper,
on which were scrubbed few lines.
The purport of the note was: "Let
this woman have 500 on account Of
the Secret Service Fund, and send her
on her mission" The note was signed
A. L. 1t is we'll known that Congress
votes the President from 100000 to
100000 annually as secret service
fund, OF this the Secretary Of State is
the custodian. He must countersign
the Presidents order or not dollar Of
the fund can be issued. But after the
President receives the money nobody
can INQUIRE what he does with it. Mr..
Seward inquired Of the woman what
secret service she was to perform that
would justify his paying her 500.
''well, she was going to England to
create a public sentiment there
in favor of her country" The case
was what Mr.. Seward supposed.
The woman had been hanging
round the White House, bothering
the life out of the President, and to get
rid of her he proposed to give her 500,
IL can give you no money for such q
purpose" said the Secretary OF State.
"Your services are worth nothing. In
London you would be damage and
NOT a benefit to US. Ican't throw away
the peoples money in, that fashion for
you.h The lady was not only indIg-
nant, but astonished. $50 you refuse
to obey the Presidents orderT IL DO.
"And YOU are greater man than MIR.
Lincoln; and when he says let me have
Sl00 of his own money you say shan I
have il" "Well, madam, il the Presi'
dent wants to give you 500 out Of his
own salary, he has perfect right to 90
it; but you can have no money out OF
the secret service fund for such tom
FOOLS errand as you are starting o.
"Gise me my papers, sir, if you please,
said the excited lady, and off she start-
ed to find the President. Mr.: Lincoln
proaned as she crossed the threshold.
hWeIl what pow p Mr.. Seward
wont give me the money and she
told her story. "Well. madame" said
the President, 81 can do no more for
YOU; told you l had very little infiu-
ence with this Administration"
