SOME persons are always noting signs, a
few of which we -will interpret: To hear a
death-watch, denotes there is a little insect
near you. A ringing in your ear denotes
that you have taken cold. To see strange
sights or hear dismal sounds, is a sign there
is something to cause them, or that your
head or nervous system is disordered. To
have frightful dreams, is a sign that you ate
too much for supper. To see an appariation,
or to be bewitched, is an incontestible evi
dence that you are either feverish, or lacking
common sense.
AN editor of a paper lately informed his
readers that the ladies always pulled off their

created some stir among his fair readers, and
while in positive terms they denied the state

to know it, even if such were the fact, and
pronounced him no gentleman. He proves
it, however, by a short argument. " When
one stocking is pulled off, there is another
left on ; pulling off this is taking the left
stocking off last."

THE sALANANDER SAFES OF PHILADELPHIA
AGAINST 2'HE WORLD.
EVANS & WATSON
Have had the surest demonstration in the following cer
tificate that their manufacture of Salamander Safes has at
length fully warranted the representations which have
been made of them as rendering an undoubted security
against the terrific element:
Philadelphia, April 1201,1856.
Messrs. EVANS & WATsox—Gentlemen—lt affords us the
highest satisfaction to state to you, that owing to the very
protective qualities of two of the Salamander Safes which
we purchased of you some few months since, we saved a
large portion of our jewelry, and all our books, papers, B:c.,
exposed to the calamitous fire in Ranstead Place, on the
morning of the 11th instant.
When we reflect that these Safes - were located in the
fourth story of the building we occupied, and that they
fell subsequently into a heap of burning ruins, where the
vast concentration of heat caused the brass plates to melt,
we cannot but regard the preservation of their valuable
contents as most convincing proof of the great security
afforded by your Safes.
We shall take much pleasure in recommending them to
men of business as a sure reliance against lire.

O N FLAND'S GERMAN BIT
TERS," the most remarkable medicine of the day, and
the many cures that have been performed with it in cases
of LIVER COMPLAINT, DYSPEPSIA, NERVOUS DE
BILITY, and diseases arising • from a disordered liver or
stomach, place it among the most astonishinm ' discoveries
that have taken place in the medical world. The diseases
to which these Bitters are applicable are so universal, that
there are but few of our friends who may not test their
virtues in their own families or circle of acquaintances,
and prove to their own satisfaction that there is at least
ono remedy among the many advertised medicines, deser
ving the public commendation. It is a fact that, in the
minds of many persons, a prejudice exists against what
are called Patent Medicines; but why should this prevent
you resorting to an article that has such an array of tes
timony to support it as Hoofiand's German Bitters? Phy
sicians prescribe it, Why should you discard it? Judges,
usually considered men of talent, have and do use it iu
their own families. Why should you reject it? Clergy
men, and those the most eminent, take it; why should
not you! Let not your prejudice usurp your reason, to
the everlasting injury of your health; if you aro sick, and
require a medicine, try these Bitters.
These Bitters are prepared and sold by Dr. C. M, Jack
son,
No. 418 Arch street, Philadelphia, Pa., and by drug
gists and storekeepers in every town and village in the
United States, Canadas, West Indies, and South America,
at 75 cents per bottle. See that the signature of C. M.
Jackson is on the wrapper of each bottle.

DROVER & BAKER'S CELEBRA
TED FAMILY SEWING MACHINES.
Eew Styles—Pricesfromsso to $125. Extra
Ulzarge 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 sewing, 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 cf the unquestioned superiority of their
Machines, the GROVER & BAEER 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
commending it as every way reliable for the purpose for
which it is designed—Family Sewing."---Dirs. Joshua
Leavitt, wife of Rev. Dr. Leavitt, Editor of E. Y. Indepen
dent.
"I confess myself delighted with your Sewing Machine,
which has been in Illy family for many months. It has
always been ready for duty, requiring no adjustment, and
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. Y.
Christian Advocate.
"After trying several different good machines, I pre
ferred yours, on account of its simplicity, and the perfect
ease with which it is managed, as well as the strength and
durability of the seam. After long experience, I feel com
petent to speak in this manner, and to confidently recom
mend it for every variety of family sewing."—Nrs. E.
B. Spooner, wife of the Editor of Brooklyn Star.
" I have used a Gnowea & BASER 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 Bev. Geo. Whipple, Arew York.
"Your Sewing Machine has been in use in my family
the past tivo years, and the ladies request me to give you
their testimonials to its perfect adaptedness, as well as la
bor-saving qualities in the performance of family and
household sewing."—.Robert Boorman, .11 7 eth York.
"For several months we have used Grover & Baker's
Sewing Machine, and have come to the conclusion that ev
ery lady who desires her sewing beautifully and quickly
done, would be most fortunate in possessing one of these
reliable and indefatigable 'iron needle-women,' whose com
bined qualities of beauty, atrength and simplicity, are in
valuable."—J. W. Morris, elzughter of Gen. Geo. P. Morris,
Editor of the Home Journal.
Extract of a letter from Taos. It. LEAVITT, Esq., an
American gentleman, now resident in Sydney, New South
'Wales, dated January 12, 1858:
"I had a tent made in Melbourne, in 1853, in which
there were over three thousand yards of sewing done with
one of Grover & Baker's Machines, and a single seam of that
has outstood all the double seams sewed by sailors with a
needle and twine."
"If Homer could be called up from his murky Lades, he
would sing the advent of Grover & Baker as a more be
nignant miracle of art than was ever Vulcan's smithy.
He would denounce midnight shirt-making as 'the direful
spring of woes unnumbered.'"—Prof. North.
"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."—.T. H. Hammond, Sen
ator of South Carolina.
"My wife has had one of Grover & Baker's Family Sew
ing Machines for some time, and I am satisfied it is one of
the best labor-saving machines that has been invented. I
take much pleasure in recommending it to the public."—
J. G. Harris, Governor of Tennessee.
"It is a beautiful thing, and puts everybody into an ex
citement of good humor. Were I a Catholic, I should in
sist upon Saints Grover and Baker having an eternal holi
day in commemoration of their good deeds for humanity."
—Cassius M. Ciay.
"I think it by far the best patent in use. This Machine
can be adapted from the finest cambric to the heaviest cas
simere. It sews stronger, faster, and more beautifully
than one can imagine. If mine could not be replaced,
money could not buy it."—Mrs. J. G.Bro um, Nashville, Tenn.
"It is speedy, very neat, and durable in its work; is ea
sily understood and kept in repair. I earnestly recom
mend this Machine to all ms.acquaintances and others."—
Mrs. M. A. Forrest, .7lfemphis, Tenn.
"We find this Machine to work to our satisfaction, and
with pleasure recommend it to the public, as we believe the
Grover & Baker to be the best Sewing Machine in use."—
Dearj Brothers, Allisania, Tenn.
"If used exclusively for family purposes, with ordinary
care, I will wager they will last one 'three score years and
ten,' and never get out of fix."—John Erskine, Nashtille,
Tenn.
"I have had your Machine for several weeks, and am
perfectly satisfied that the work it does is the best and most
beautiful that ever was made."—Maggie .Aimison, .21-ash
rile, Tenn.
" 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 blessings 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.
Thompson, Nash - v:7le, Tenn.
" I take pleasure in certifying to the utility of the Gro
ver & Baker Sewing Machines. I have used one on almost
every description of work for months, and find it much
stronger and better in every respect than work done by
hand."—Mrs. D. 3F Wheeler, Nashville, limn.
"I would be unwilling to dispose of my Grover & Baker
Machine for a large amount, could I not replace it again at
pleasure."—Yrs. H. G. Scovel, Nashville, Tenn.
"Our two machines, purchased from you, do the work
of twenty young ladies. We with pleasure recommend
the Grover & Baker Sewing Machine to be the best in use."
—N. Stillman & Co., Memphis, Tenn.
" The Grover & Baker Sewing Machine works admirably.
I think the stitch and work far superior to that of any
Sewing Machine I ever saw. On fine work, I think the
Machine would be hard to beat."—.T. TV: Davie, Memphis,
Tenn.
"I find the Machine easily managed, very durable, and
take pleasure in recommending it to all who wish conve
nience, economy, and pleasure. —Mrs. F. Titus, Memphis,
2nn.
"The Grover & Baker Sewing Machines have given such
satisfaction that we cheerfully recommend them to all who
wish a good and substantial Sewing Machine. It executes
work with much care and speed, and more finely than any
other machine I have seen." —Mrs. R. B. Mitchell, Mem
phis, Tenn.
"I am happy to give my testimony in favor of Grover
& Baker's Sewing Machine : and of the perfect satisfaction
it gives in every respect. It sews neatly, and is by no
means complicated, and I prefer it to all others I have
seen."—Mrs. Bryan, wife of Rev. A. M. Bryan, Memphis,
