DOUBLE THREADED
FAMILY SEWING MACHINE
Tbe Revolving Looper is a late improvement on Ray

Warranted tbe be.st in the world for Family Use !
Price Within the Reach &f Every Family.
PRICE $35.
Uenrmer, Feller, Hinder & Tucking guagc, combined, $5.
'TUIE reputation of this Machine is now fully Cstablisli-
I ed as the most reliable Machine iu the market for
family use, and has been attested too by thousands of the
most respectable families in the Union"
This Machine makes the celebrated " Double Lock
Stitch," the only one made by machinery that meets all
the requirements of Family Sewing. Each stitch is tied
twice, so that every one is securely fastened and wholly
independent of all the other stitches for strength, so that
if the seam is cut or every fourth stitch broken, the sew
ing must hold good while the fabric will wear. The
machinery which makes this stitch is a marvel of sim
plicity, requiring no mechanical skill to manage it, nor
does it require adjustment more than tire mere change of
thread and needles to adopt it to the character of the
work to be sewed—coarse or fine as the case may be. It
will sew gauze laces, and all varieties and kinds of fab
• rics between and including heavy beaver cloth, without
changing either needles or thread equally wgll, and re
turn to either variety of work with perfect satisfaction.
N'o other Machine ever offered to the public will do as
• much.
A perfect Sewing Machine, one making a stitch an
-1 sweriug all the requirements of the family .sewing coarse
' and tine work equally well, was the great desideratum of
" the home circle, previous to the invention of EPWIN
: CLARK'S REVOLVING LOOPEK. The stitch is beautiful,
trong, and elastic, and will not rip in wear or in aoci
dental breaking a thread.
' Every Machine is warranted to give satisfaction or the
money refunded.
We. have a large list of references but will give the
names of only a lew :

"To be. or not to be hut'ls the qiftstiou !
I Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The siiugs ami arrows of outrageous opposition,
Or by taking up arms against a sea of printing ink,
And opposing, end them."
I f|AHE proprietor of tbe Argos takes n r:e-in;i ih -adver
J, ti-ing liis Ibnderv t" indulge in an uncalled for Hing
about a • sort r.i a concern," which is hoping " to delude
- the public." As 1 have opened a Bindery on my own ac
count, the inference is that it the politic bring their
binding to me, they are in 110 danger of being defrauded.
For two years I have worked for Mr. PARSONS, and he
] has taken great pains t itisfy the public 1 was the " best
Binder in America," as the columns of the Argus will
testify. Has he been nil that time " deluding the pnb
lic V if I have been engaged in a fraud, he has been the
. principal. But I refer to iny work during that time as
evidence that there has been no fraud practiced.
Having served a long apprwitlc tshlp at the Bindery
business, I hare p'-uiucd business here on my own u

Instrumental Music will not. as heretofore, he taught, in
tlie Institution, but by special arrangement—a class will
be taught in a hall adjoining the grounds ol'the Institute,
by the Teacher ot Vocal Music.
This arrangement has been adopted for the past term,
and experience has proved it to be eminently superior to
the plan pursued in former years. Special pains will lie
taken to secure the greatest progress ot those wishing to
take lessons in this branch. Terms will be as heretofore :

Normal Department —Special exercises are arranged

Teachers of Common Schools. Prof. C.U. COBURN, the
able and well known Superintendent of Common Schools
in the county, has kindly consented to organize the Tea
cher's class, and direet the course to be pursued.
He will also be present to conduct its exercises as often
a* practicable, and will deliver frequent lectures on the
Theory anil Practice of Teaching, as also on other subjects
connected with Normal training.
Those persons, therefore, intending to engage in teach
ing for the winter, will find it greatly to their advantage
to be present during the Fall term.
Prof. Cobora's connection with the institution is not
such as to in any way interfere with the discharge of the
regular duties of his office.
No pains Will be spared, on the part of the Faculty and
Trustees in sustaining the high repulatation the institu
tion has hitherto enjoyed, anil iu rendering it more wor
thy of future patronage and support.
