liONOES TO THE SEWING MACHINE
INVENTOR.-The following proposition tc
raise a monument to the memory of the
inventor of the sewing machine we clip
from the New York Ecening Post:
"Wc all know that mechanical inventions
are the popularity Of our age and have much
TO do with producing and distributing our
most important commodities, while they
promote the education of our people by
taking the heaviest burdens from then
hands, and by securing time and means for
instruction. 1t is proper, therefore, to
hold our inventors IN honor and present
them and their Inventions to the public eye
III lifting monuments.
It has occurred to u number Of our citl-
zcnS that a suitable monument should be
erected in the Central Park in memoir o!
the late Elias Howe. Jr., the inventor OF
the sewing machine, and that the money
should be raised by voluntary offerings of
not more than one dollar each from
ladies who have known the benefits
Of the invention. Elias Howe, .Jr.,
was not merely a successful inventor,
whose needle machine, more powerful and
humane than the famous needle-gun,"
has changed wholly the face Of one of the
most universal and ~fatiguing kind of do
nestle toll he was also a good citizen and
earnest patriot, who freely gave his money
and time, and was ready to risk health and
life for his country.
Its understood that an experienced sculp-
tor has a satisfactory design for an impress
sive monument, with studies modelled from
life, and that q gentleman of wcll-known
integrity and thorough acquaintance with

A committee will be appointed in each
of the large cities in the United States to
take subscriptions to the above laudablc
object. No lady who appreciates the bless
ings of a sewing machine will refuse to
give the dollar, at which sum the subscrip-
ton has been placed. The ladies' of Rich
mond will no doubt gladly contribute to
such a noble work. The estimated cost Of
the statue is $40, 900.
