THE USUAL RESULT. 1T is not to be ds
Mo dthat good sewing mlc hine is on OF
the most important appurtcnances OF the
modern household.
We thought we had good mach inc in
our household until one day the agent OF the
Moo Tome presented himself at our door
and proceeded to deliver an Grafton upon its
characteristic merit.
But" We answered, "our machine serves
US nicely and suits US well, and we do not
care for another
The agent, however, begged the privilege
ofleaving one of his machines with us, for
the ladies to try"
The request was not unreasonable SO we
grautcd it--but more to ohligc the agent
than anything else; for really we did not
want the machine, and had not the remotest
idea of buying 1t.
? The machine once in the house, it was nat
ural that the ladies should look it over; they
did So and as a consequence fell in love
with it. They say that without the slight
est wish to decry or disparage any other
machine, this, all things considered, is, in
their opinion, the most desirable one to be
had.
The rpshot Of the whole matter was that
the old machine was disposed of, and the
Light Running New Home installed in
our household. 1t it pronounced genuine
beauty and real comfort, and "0ur folks
wanted us to tell other folks about it.
This unrivaled machine is manufactured
by the NEW HOME SEWING MACHINE
CO., 30 Union Square, New York, who wish
us to say that all who will send for their new
illustrated catalogue and enclose their advCr-
tisement (printed in another column) will

A Ringing Endorse ment.

Squire A. q. Stuart, one of the most intelligent and thrifty farm CTS of this Congressional district, and brother of Judge H. B. Stuart, of Philadelphia, sends us the fol lowing splendid endorsement Of Hon. T. C. McRae:
 NAcmrocHEs BLUFF, June lG, 1883. EDITOR PlcAYUNK:
 have seen and care fully read the recent Address ofThos. C. McRae to the voters of this district. and am constrained to hereby publicly exrr,ss my unqualified endorse ment oft In my judgment Me. MeRae Is the man for the occasion. l have known him personally from his youth, and he has always been true and unwayering. He un- ders'ards the purposes and workings of gov crument, and he has the ability and inc will to resist monopoles. His ideas of legislation are good, and his election would be for the bencG. of the people. There are the best of reasons why the laboring men especially those without homes of their own-should support him. like his views on tho tariff Justice to all, wrong to none, is what should be protected.
 Fcllow-citizens, let us support the man who sweeps down our line oi principles and gallantly defends them. Permit me 10 again sw that r. c. Mckae is the man for us, first, last, and all the time. He is social, easily ap- proached by the most timid, an1 has re-"f- tirmed to us what We know to be his life long principles. A.G. STUART.
 This endorsement by Squire Stuart is entitled to additional weight for the reason that he is a sterling, Jeffersonian Democrat, who few years ago became some what discouraged with the outlook for Democracy and the people, and for time gave his prudent, con. servative counsels, and substan- tial support, to the cause Of the Greenback party.

The "Panteiersn VanquishCd,

For once at least the capital city papers must acknowledge them selves vanquished by their coun- try cousins. Some two or three weeks ago the Gazette and the Democrat tore loose all at once In q fearless exposure of the dis graceful manner in which the St. Louis, Iron Mountain & Southern, (which is either too poor or too pc nurious to build a decent depot at Prescott and other railroads, di,- criminate against their city in the matter of freight rates. In their anguish they cried: "We are stabbed! we are stab bedl We are t,e goose that lays the golden egg, and the railroads are killing us. We c,nnot ship a barrel of hme mp the Fort Smith road; nor can we ship q barrel of salt by the Iron Mountain, or a barrel of potatoes by the Valley Route, and all our manufacturing plants arc pulling np and moving to Texarkana 'Splud" But the very moment they shook their fists at the rail. roads every country paper in the State jumped on them, apparently in spirit of pure deyiltry, and at once commenced to filing up" to them all their past ''pantcrins" to these "great civilizers.' And, in ereditable as it may seem, within Q week they had ceased their ex- posnre of the gross extortions of lie railroads, and were taking up all their time and space pecking to the cows aud hogs which ran at large on Markham and Main streets. and trying to explain and deny that they ever ''pantered' to the roads. But, boys, we have had enough fun out of you now. q ahead and make the railroads give you fair rates, and we will not jihe you any more.

"NO Grandcr Man Than Lee.

Gen. U. $. Grant has. about fin ished writing ms memoirs, and they will soon be published. Ex. tracts from advance sheets of the work foreshow 6 book of great in- terest-a book rich in incident, an- ecJote and reminiscencc, with jast enough of the glamor of the pomp and circumstance, and the atroc- ities, of war, to imbue it with the zest of romance: all written in the very best taste and most schol- arly style. Itappears to be sinP,l- iarly free from acrimony, cru,.ina.- ton, or boasttulness, and one ut terance alone in if is sufficient to commend it 10 every trac Ameri- can, and especially to every South ron. In speaking of the great Confederate Chieftain, the illustri- ous author says: 'I have never known or read of a grandcr man 'A,,an Lee" How glad we are that iGen. Grant has said this! How
 brave and magnanimous he is to say it! The Southern people, as a people, we do not hesitate to say, have never understood Gen. Grants nature, or been willing to acknowledge his genius as a sol dier. But in time they Will Go both. Gen. Grant has always re- mained silent, and permitted all others to proclaim their own glo' ", trusting to time and the histo- !, rian to render unto him his just reward. But when the world comes to read his book it will then be seen, what the cold light of his- tory in coming years will show, that l instead of being a skillless stoic who fought his vast armies me chanically, and who was always "gazing into empty space" ap- parently wholly oblivious to sur rounding circumstances. he was in fact the keenest and most intelll- gent observer ofall passing events, and military commander of con summate skill and wonderful re- sources. We say this of Gen. Grants book upon the brief eX- tracts which have been given to the public through the Associated Press, and net upon a critical reading of the memoirs, for, being vet unpublished, We have had ID opportunity 10 see them. But our observations upon the General himself are based upon years ot close study of the man, and do not in the least degree exaggerate our high estimate of his magnanlmlty and splendid soldierly qualities.
