Now for the first time introduced to the pub
lie, ranks in excellence with their famous
No, 6 Machine, but has some notifications
adapting it to special classes of work. The
Tailor will find it as well suited to his work
as is No. to leather work. 1t might properly
be termed the Tailor's Machine.

1t will close seams with heavy silk in leather
tighter, without puckering, than any machine

A Cruel Clerical Father.

The trial of Rev. G. D. Lathrop, of
Amherst, Mass, for cruelty to his fam.
lily, has at last begun before the Con.
gregational church of which he is a
member. The testimony already civ.
en- covers the training of three daugh-
ters from infancy up, and is of the
most revolving character, involving
brutal horsewhipping for trivial often
ses, systematic starving, feedin; Of
rotten meat, and positive dishonesty
and faithlessness in his family rela:
tions. The climax of this family his
tory was the determination of suicide
last spring on the part of Mary, l8
years old. The reading of letter to
her oldest sister to that effect before
the church last evening, produced the
profoundest sensation, melting many
to tears. Rev. Mr.. jenkins testified
that he saved the girls life by the
greatest effort, and by finally taking
her j. to his own house. Her arms
were found to be all black and blue
from recent beatings, and her clothing
miserably insufficient, and he induced
her to promise not to take morphine
as long as she was cared for. It was
also brought out that Mr.. Lathrop's
threat to relatives, who have hereto
fore known of his inhumaiity, have
kept the matter secret.

The Markets.

Wheat, as far as crop estimates are
concerned, the improvement is as sadly lack
ing AZ on the local prices. Tie year has not
been a favorable one in any direction. Where
the crasshoppers have not eaten up every
Green thing, including the wheat stalks, the
hot weather, without seasonable rains, seems
to have shrunk the berry, so that fields that
promised fairly are actually yielding scarcely
enough to pay the thresher. A crop of To-
OO0, 900 bushels in the state is now the outside
estimate. Of course; in view Of such beg
carly result Of their seasons efforts, produ-
GERS are anxiously looking for some sign, in
all the markets Of the world, that shall give
promise of better prices; and they are dis
posed to hold on to their wheat until an i'm
provement worth their consideration is in
progress. Considerable improvement is no.
ticeable in the speculative markets, for wheat
for future delivery, but it may possibly
be lost in day. 1t is still too early to make
calculations upon the probable value of the
years crop Of the wheat growing regions. In
TACT, calculations of this kind almost always
fail. The wisest prognosticators generally
find themselves at fault. They can usually
show by statistics how the markets ought ia
rule, as regards prices; and the markets,
with most aggravating perversity, generally
50 exactly the other way.

Dangerous COuntcrlcits.

We had no idea Of the extent TO
which counterteiting legal tender and nation
al.currency notes has been carried. There
are one or more frst-rate engravers engaged
in the business, and when they get plate
Tor one State they can alter the name Of the
bank in it by having that portion of the plate
arranged so as to change one name for an
other. It will lie seen that in this way they
can issue notes for as many banks Of State
rs they choose with the one plate. Some of
the counterfeits are coarse and easily detect
ed. Some are fitted to deceive even an ex-
pert. Of some, very few notes arc in circu-
lation; OF others, quite number. The fol-
lowing is the list, which has been furnished
to the Chicago Tribune, in order to put the
