Mn. EDITOR t----Man not only desires the
good opinion of others with reference to the
present, but Nature has planted a principle
within him, that causes him to wish to be re
membered, when dust shall have returned to
dust, and the spirit to Him who gave it.—
With
the hope of realizing this desire, we
find him engaging in pursuits, braving un
told dangers, and sacrificing every present
luxury that affluence and ease can afford, that
he may, in the record of deeds of unwonted
daring, enshrine his name, to be remembered
and revered until time shall cease to beat her
noiseless waves against the shores of eterni
ty. At the bidding of this impulsive desire,
monumental piles rise in towering grandeur '
to mark the resting-place of the illustrious
dead. By it names have been carved deep
in Fame's fair temple. Yet how few of earth's
millions are there whose names have not been
forever obliterated by the erasing finger of
time ! If we go to the ancient Orient, where
its vast plains are dotted with the massive
structures of art, that have withstood the de
stroying influences of centuries, and as we
with feelings, which the majestic grandeur of
of their gigantic proportions are wont to pro
duce, seek an acquaintance with the history
of their founders, what is the lesson they
teach ? Nature is mute, history fails to sup
ply the desired information, and what was
once the pride of power and hope of immor
tal fame to its founder, now contemptuously
mocks the weakness and derides the folly of
human ambition. Devotees at the shrine of
honor, have in many instances succeeded in
insinuating themselves into positions of dis
tinction: By a glittering display of genius,
they have obtained a momentary fame from
their enthusiastic dependents, but they have
sunk into unremembered nothingness, and
the mists and clouds of their own evanescent
fame have become their winding-sheet. En
comiums have been unsparingly lavished up
on the victor. The monarch's crown has
decked the brow of honor obtained by the
sacrifice of the life-blood of devoted veterans. •
Gaudy triumph's have been graced by the
spoils of desolated kingdoms ; but how many
of the vast numbers who have thirsted for glo
ry amid scenes of carnage, have obtained the
goal 1 The great majority have not left even
the wreck of a name as a memorial. Of those
who have stood highest on the records of re
nown, and whose names have been enrolled
upon the immortal scroll, only a part of their
works have survived. But these remnants
are enough to delight, to impress, to instruct.
Although in- certain instances, misguided ef
fort may have cast reproach or even fixed an
eternal stigma upon the otherwise laudable
character, there are those evident manifesta
tions of design and resolution in every action
which challenge the admiration of the behol
der. Earnestness has been the talisman of
their success. By it' they won tlateonfidence
of their own generation, a confidence which
gives influence, an influence in which is pow
er to revolutionize the world of mind, and po
litical institutions. Whether we contemplate
the' character of the world's conqueror at
- whose iron will kingdoms and crowns are,dis
posed of, or of him
"Whose resistless eloquence ,
Wielded at will the fierce Dembieracy,
Shook the arsenal. and fulmined over Greece
To Macedon and Artaxerxes' throne,"
in - whatever respects they may be dissimilar,
in one thing they are the same—their history
bears the unmistakable impress of earnestness.
To attain an imperishable name is no work of
proxy. The very page that bears such a
name is emblazoned with the record of ac
tions which have in some way effected the
condition, not merely of some particular lo
cality, but of the entire world. Many have
by their own personal endeavors so identified
their-memories with the history of the world,
that to erase their individual history, the an
nals of their age would be lost in the silence
of an eternal slumber. Their memories have
become constituent parts* of the world's his- I
tory. Time, in her relentless march, may
strive to tear away the trophies of life's bat
tle, but her ruthless hand possesses no power
to erase their memory. The means employed
by those who have sought to place their names
"above mortality," have been various. Per
haps it is most commonly sought in military
achievements. Far back in the history of
the world, when rivalry for power was the
prevailing passion of the nations, when furious
warfare was ever waging between jealous ri
vals, the art of war was the study of all who
aspired to positions of rank. Then it was
that every power and energy was called forth,
and he who came off victor in one instance,
was the more eager to further his conquests,
until unlimited power has been usurped, and
the world tremblingly acknowledges the usur
per her conqueror, and time tenders a wreath
of immortal fame to adorn his memory.—
Glassioal literature is replete with the glory
of the victor, and modern history points to
her mighty conqueror. " Yet the laurel of
the conqueror grows only in the soil which is
moistened with blood. It is stained with the
tears of the widow, and thrives in the midst
of desolation." Others to ' their age less
known, have left a germ of influence that
has spread with the lapse of time—a grow
ing -monument, one that shall glow with un
sullied splendor when the sculptured granite
shall have become a smouldering heap of
ruins, and the ever-during brass an unsightly
thing.
Whether with the few, vindicating and sup
porting the truth in 'opposition to prevailing
error, or single-handed and alone, exposing
unheeded wretchedness to the sunshine of
public observation ; from their beatific spirits
have emanated those genial rays which have
left a heavenly and perennial brilliancy on
the pages of history, and shed around the
cherished memory an undefined halo of glory.
To such there is no noon-day brightness--no
declining splendor—
"The feeble character or Glory's hand
Shall perish, like the tracks upon the sand;
But not with these, expire the sacred flame
Of Virtue, or the good man awful name."

DROVER & BAKER'S CELEBRA
TED FAMILY SEWING MACHINES.
New Styles—Prices from $5O to $125. Extra
charge of $5 for Hemmers.
495 Broadway, New York.
730 Chestnut street, Philadelphia.
These Machines sew from two spools, as purchased from
the store, requiring no re-winding of thread; they Hem,
Fell, Gather, and Stitch in a superior style, finishing 'each
seam by their own operation, without recourse to the
hand-needle, as is required by other machines. They will
do better and cheaper sewing than a seamstress can, even
if she works for one cent an hour, and are, unquestionably,
the best Machines in the market for family solving, on ac
count of their simplicity, durability, ease of management,
and adaptation to all varieties of family sewing—executing
either heavy or fine work with equal facility, and without
special adjustment.
As evidence of the unquestioned superiority of their
Machines, the Gan - Ea & BASCH SEWING MACHINE COMPANY
beg leave to respectfully refer to the the following
TESTIMONIALS
"Having had one of Grover & Baker's Machines in my
family for nearly a year and a-half, I take pleasure in

which it is designed—Family Sewing."- 3 / 7 7. Joshua
Leavitt, wife of Rev. Dr. Leavitt, Editor of Indepen

is easily adapted to every variety of family sewing, by
simply changing the spools of thread."—Mrs. Elizabeth
Strickland, wife of Rev. Dr. Strickland, Editor of N.
Christian- Advocate.
"After trying several different good machines, I pre
ferred yours; on account of its simplicity, and the perfect
case with which it is managed, as well as the strength and
durability of the scam. After long experience, I feel com
petent to speak in this manner, and to confidently recom
mend it for every variety of family sewing.":—.Mrs. E.
B. Spooner, wife of the Editor of Brooklyn Star.
" I have used a GROVER & BAKER Sewing Machine for
two years, and have found it adapted to all kinds of fam
ily sewing, from Cambric to Broadcloth. Garments have
been worn out without the giving way of a stitch. The
Machine is easily kept in order, and easily used."—Mrs.
A. B. Whipple, wife of Rev. Geo. Whipple., Pio Tbrk.

bined qualities of beauty, strength and simplicity, are in

"I had a tent made in Melbourne, in 1853, in which
there were over three thousand yards of sewinglone with
one of Grover & Baker's Machines, and a singicseambf that
has outstood all the double seams sewed by sailors with a
needle and twine."
"If Homer could be called up from his murky hades, he
would sing the advent of Grover & Baker as a more be
nignant miracle of art than was ever Vulcan's smithy.
lie would denounce midnight shirt-making as 'the direful
spring of woes unnumbered.'"—raef. /179rth.
"I take pleasure in saying, that the Grover & Baker
Sewing Machines have more than sustained my expecta
tion. After trying and returning others, I have three of
them in operation in my different places, and, after four
years' trial, have no fault to find."—J. IL mummona, Sen
ator of South Carolina.

ing Machines for some time, and I am satisfied it is one of

Dear!, Brothers. Allisonia,__Tz-rii.
-If used exclusively for family purposes, with ordinary
care, I will wager they will last one 'threescore years and
ten,' and never get out of fix."—John _Erskine, inshrilie,
"I have had your Macbine for several weeks, and am
perfectly satisfied that the work it does is the best and most
beautiful that ever was made."—.4faggie Almison, Nitsh
rine, TC)I2I.
"I use my Machine upon Coats. dressmaking, and fine
linen stitching. and the work is admirable—far better than
the best hand-sewing, or any other machine I have ever
seen.”—Lucy B. Thompson, Nashville, Tenn.
" I find the work the strongest and most beautiful I have
ever seen. made either by hand or machine, and regard the
Grover & Baker Machine as one of the greatest Iljessings to
our sex."—Mrs. Taylor, Nashville, Tenn.
"I have one of Grover & Baker's Sewing Machines in
use in-my family, and find it invaluable. I can confidently
recommend it to all persons in want of a machine."—G. 1.
Thompson. Nashville, Teun.
"I take pleasure in certifying to the utility of the Gro
ver & Baker Sewing Machines. I have used one on alm6st
every description of work for months, and find it much
stronger and better in every respect than work clone by
hand."—Mrs. U. M . Wheeler. Nashville, Tenn.
"I would be unwilling to dispose of my Grover & Baker
Madam for a large amount, could I not replace it again at
pleasure."—Mrs. u. G. Scovel, Nashville, Tenn.
-"Our two machines, purchased from you, do the work
of twentyyonng ladies. We with plea-Sure recommend
the Grover & Baker Sewing Machine to be the best in use."
Stillman & Co., Memphis, Tenn.
" The Grover & linker Sewing Machine works admirably.
I think the stitch and work tar superior to that of any
Sewing Machine I ever saw. On. fine work, I think the
Machine would be hard to beat."—.T. Back, Memphis,
