We have been running Wheeler &

misses and children's shoe uppers
during the last three years, and
have fifty-six of them in constant
use. We find them superior to any
other Sewing Machine in the fol-
lowing PARTICULARS:
1t will close seams in leather,
without puckering, tighter and
more rapidly than any machine of
which we know, and that with
heavier silk or linen thread and
smaller needles.
II runs faster and makes more
regular and better stitching ON fine
leather than any other machine we
ever used.
They are very durable. We run
them by power fully up to 100
stitches per minute. They are ali
in excellent condition, and they dc
not cost us for each machine csc
per year for repairs.

Western New York correspondent sends us
the particulars of a discovery which may
develop into importance. The workingmen

The salt was struck at a depth of one

of nine hundred and fifty feet the drill
passed through salt vein of three feet in
thickness the water of which, being subject
to analysis, showed the presence OF tiourine,
chlorine, bromine. iodine, aluminium and
sixty per cent. of chloride of sodium. Wyo-

Mrs CAPTAIN JENKS-The average Mead
vile man or woman who has memory
twenty to twenty-five years long will recall
a family named Murdock, who lived here
from 1850 to 1859. James Murdoch, the
father Of the now famous witness, Agnes
MurdoCk jerks, came to Meadville from
Glasgow, Scotland, about the year 1S48 or
1850 He was Il carpenter by trade. About
1855 Mr. Murdoch went South, deserting
his family, who in time became reduced
in circumstances and were finally the re-
cipients of charity The family deserted
consisted of Mrs. MurdOck, who was a
graduate of a medical university at Glasgow,
a woman of beautiful form and face, and
her four children, of whom Agnes Douglas
Murdoch was the oldest, except a son by
Mrs. Murdock's first husband, whose name
was Douglas After Murdock had been
gone some two or three years, a reconciia-
ton was effected by correspondence with
his wife here, and just before the breaking
out of the rebellion she went South with
her children to join her husband, since
which time little has been known here of
the whereabouts of the family The war
broke off all communications, and the rela-
tives in this vicinity know little of them.
Agnes, who is now so well known as wit
ness, was nearly eighteen years old when
she babe good-by to the beaux of Meadville.
She is described by those who remember
her as a girl of remarkable beauty, and
could we'll lay claim 10 the title of belle of
the village and q most fascinating girl, al
though one without education, except what
is denoted as picked-up education. Her
mother however, was both educated and
handsome, and had entree into the best So
ciety of the town. The family during their
last years in Meadville, resided in house
near the top of College HILL above where
the Odd-fellows' Home now stands. All
our solid men now who were classed as the
beaux of twenty years ago can recall pretty
Agnes, and with wonderful unanimity re-
fer to her fascinating mamma [Meadville

A Docs AFFEcTIoN.-The following story
is told by the Auburn Advertiser of Mon
day: A mammoth Newfoundland dog. for
merly owned by Rev. Father kayanagh, Of
the Holy Family Church, was left in charge
of Mr.. Daniel Bowling when the owner de-
parted for Europe. A small terrier belong
ing to Mr.. Bowling at once became the com
panion of the Newfoundland and evinced
great affection for him. Recently the large
dog was poisoned by some enemy and died
last week, and was buried in the garden.
The terrier attended the funeral and tried
in all manner of ways to get his huge COM
panion to play with him as was his wont,
but unavailingly. After the interment the
terrier was inconsolable, and invariably
buried his entire dinner i'll the grave before
he would taste a morsel of food himself, but
was afterwards refed by the family. This
has continued since the burial last week,
Thursday, and still shows no signs of abate-
ment.

Platform of the National Labor
Party.

PHILADELPHIA, May 9.-The Ma
tional Labor Convention was some
what turbulent to day. y resolu-
ton that the convention condemn
any lawlessnesS or violence was
adopted; also, the platform read
this morning with few amend
ments, which is briefly summarized:
That the party advocates n high
protective tariff, a moderate reform
in the course OF labor to be regula.
ted by wise legislation, opposition
to discriminating monopollcs i'll the
carrying trade, and the substitu-
ton of the nations money for that
OF bank notes.
1t demands the unconditional re-
peal of the resumption act, and the
recognition By Congress OF efforts
of internal improvements, and the
encouragement of ship building and
oceanic transportation. 1t disavows
any countenancc OF lawlcssness OIL
violence, and advocates the main
tenance of the principles OF the par
ty by the judicious use of the ballot
box, and changes the name of tho
party from that of National Labor
Party to National Greenback Labor
Party.
