Down Pat Egg Carrier.

The Down Pat Egg Carrier fills long
felt want among farmers and other poul-
try owners. The old plan o. using pai
or basket with oats or bran as filler, tc
market eggs in. is an inconvenient as
we'll as an expensive mode, often result
ing in dissatisfaction between merchant
and customer by mistake in counting and
breakage while taking them to market
and in removing them from the oats or
bran.
The Down Pat Egg Carrier obyiates all
difficulties; furnishes a safe and conve-
nient storage while collecting for market;
it IS provided with paste board filters,
which render breakage impossible.
We have decided to present every
farmer IN this vicinity with a handsome
Down Pat Egg Carrier free of charge.
All that we ask is that you appreciate
our efforts to please, give US our portion
of your future patronage, and tell your
neighbors how to obtain an egg carrier
free.
When your cash purchases haye
amounted to SIS you will receive a
"Down Pat Ege Carrier free!
Notwithstanding that we are giving
these cases away to our customers, our
prices will be as low, if not lower, than
eyer before. If it pleases our old friends
and makes new ones, we will be repaid
for our outlay. Yours respectfully,

From President Buchanan's Message
to Congress December, 1857.
The earth has yielded her fruit
abundantly; our great staples COM
mand high prices, and up till within a
brief period our mineral. manufactur-
ing and mechanical occupations have
largely partaken OF the general pros
perity. We have possessed all the
elements of material wealth in rich
abundance, yet, Notwithstanding these
advantages, our country in it's none
tary interests is at present in a de-
plorable condition. In the midst of
unsurpassed plenty we find our manu-
factories suspended, our public works
retarded, our private enterprises
abandoned and thousands of useful
laborers thrown out of employment
and reduced to want. Under these
circumstances a loan may be required
before the close of your present session,
but this, although deeply to be
regretted, would prove it to be only a
slight misfortune when compared
with the suffering and distress pre-
vailing among our people.

federal constitution, this important
and delicate duty has been trans

Our financial system has prevented
us from competing in our own mar
kets with foreign manufacturers, has
produced extravagant importations,
and has cOunteracted the effect of the
large incidental protection afforded to
our domestic manufacturers by the
present revenue tariff. But for this
the branches Of our manufactures
composed of raw materials, the pro-
duction of our country, such as cotton,
iron and woolen fabrics, would not
only have acquired almost exclusive

would have created for themselves a

COUNTY BRIDGES.

The California Bridge Company Bit
terly Oppose Burlle's Bill
The County Government Joint COM
mittee met last, night and Senate Bill No.
10, introduced by Senator Burke, was
considered.
The bill is an Act to amend Section %
of an Act entitled "An Act to establish a
uniform system of county and township
Governments" approved March 81, ls9i
Section of the bill was the mote that
caused all the trouble. 1t provides that
where the cost of the erection of any
bridge exceeds $500, the Board of Super
visors of the county shall first adopt plans
and specifications, straln-sheetS, and
working details thereof, ana thereupon
advertise for bids, and shall let the con-
tract therefor upon the plans and specifi-
cations already adopted by them, which
shall be attached TO and made part of such
contract.
The intention of the amendment was to
give country contractors chance to COM
pete with the large bridge companies in
the State, thus giving home industry at
least chance to live.
A. w. Burial, OF the California Bridge
Company, came before the committee
and pleaded for favorable report
upon the bill. He declared that to allow
the Board OF Supervisors to provide plans
and Specifications would be to give theur
chance to throw the business into the
hands of any particular bridge company
they might desire, by furnishing plans
which could probably be produced by
only one company in the United States,
thus making monopoly OF all work in
the county.
Assemblyman Wade and Senator
Burke We're strongly in favor of the pas
sage of the bill, alleging that small con-
tractors, who We're obliged to furnish
their own plans and specifications, were
heavily handicapped by wealthy bridge
companies, who might easily produce a
dozen plans with no actual cost.
