G$- Although Gov. JnO. c. Brown
has not been sent to the u. s. Senate to
occupy seat in that body, he neverthe-
less represents the true democracy OF
Tennessee as no other man in the State
can do, and occupies before the people
of the State position as proud and as
honorable as that of Senator. His adj
ministration has been one of success,
and while the vile tongue of Islander has
been directed against him in his official
and private life, he has been thoroughly
vindicated before the country and by
the mouth even of his enemies. He is
yet young man and the future is bright
before him. Never has he attained a
position so lofty and proud as when to
secure harmony in his party and bring
triumph to its principles he sacrificed
his own claims to a seat in the Senate OF
the United States.
In the struggle .or tho position, al
though abused, misrepreSented and ma
ligned, he developed such strength as
could be commanded by none of his col
leagues, and when after a complete vim
dication at the hands of the General As
sembly he withdrew from the contest,
he reached a position i'm the eyes of the
people Of Tennessee which marked him
at once as the representative man of the
democracy of the State. With an am
bition and pride of character second TO
none, it is still subservient to the success
of the party and the good of his country.
Tennessee will yet demand his services
in the National Councils. The people
only await an opportunity to endorse
the acts of a man who while abused and
misrepiesented could still look alone to
his country, and forgetting any selfish
interest, sacrifice himself and his claims
upon the altar of his country and for the
sake Of harmony i'm his party.

THE RELIABLE NEW FAMILY
SINGER SEHIIE MACHINE ! !


Still here and
Doing a Good Business
THE table of Sewing Machine Sales for
i 1878 shows that our sales last year
amounted to 232.444 1.-TWO hundred and
thirty-two thousand, tour hundred and forty
FOUR Machines, being large increase over
the sales of the previous year (1s72.)
The table also shows that our sales EX-
CEED THOSE OF ANY OTHER
COMPANY. for the period named, by the
number of 1925 MACHINES, or near
ly double those Of any other Company.
Il may be further stated that the sales Of
1878, as compared with those Of 1872, show a
relatively larger increase, beyond the sales
of other makers than Of any other year.
For instance, in 1872 we sold A. 900 more
Machines than any other Company, whereas,
in 1878, the sales were
liz, 254 Machines in Excess of Our
Highest Competitor.
These figures are all the more remarkable,
for the reason that the sales of the principal
Companies in 1878 are LESS THAN
THEIR SALES IN 1879: whereas, as
has been shown. OUR SALES HAVE
LARGELY IN CREASED.
The account of sales is from sworn returns
made to the owners of the Sewing Ma
