No. 625, Broadway, the first Sewing Ma chine, (No. 1) made by the eompany, the present number being 220,000. Let the interested compare the machine sold iu 1851 for $125 with those now offered for $55. The former owner of this ma chine gives its history as follows. The machine was liuisbed early in 1851, and I | learned its use from Mr. Wilson himself. I was I thus, you see, the first to work the Wheeler A Wil- | son Machine,and learned on the first Machine they ; ever manufactured. In 1855 I earned w itli the machine $265, besides j doing my own housework and taking care of my baby. In 1856 we came to Davenport.and brought j the machine with us. I believe it is the first Ma- i chiae ever brought to lowa. I run that Machine almost constantly for more than j fourteen years, on all sorts of work,from the finest j dress making to the heaviest tailoring. I quilted | a full sized white bed-spread with it which has been exhibited three times at the Fair. It took me three i weeks to do it with my other work, but it could j not have been done by hand in so many years. I have even stitched leather with it, and at the time ! I exchanged it, (in 1865) for No. 193,320 it worked | just as well as when made. It is perhaps unnecessary for me to add that 1 ' believe the Wheeler A Wilson to be vastly superior ! to any other machine made. Yours Respectfully April 21th. P. E. B.

Mason. •TONES.—In Albany, May 18, Mrs. E. Jennie Jones, aged 22 years. ITI.IU E. —ln WJ-KOV. ON Wednesday, March 7th Mr. Sh.-pard Pierce, in his coin j-ch. Mr. Pierce was born in Plainfield county, April 29th, 1780. After spending a portion of his youth in Western New York, came to Wysox in the year 1807, at the age ol 27, purchased the farm (which was then all a forest) on which he lived and died. Three years after his arrival, he was married to Miss Sarah Coolbaugh, with whom he lived hap pily for forty years, she departing this life Sept. 27, 1850. Mr. Pierce has left a large circle of mourning friends ; the whole community mourn his loss, and bear testimony to Lis upright and manly character in liis dealings with his fellow men : but those who were nearly connected to him by the ties of blood, more deeply feel his loss. These are es pecially his 12 children, 40 grand-children and 3 great grand-children. He was a man of patient industry ; settling on a farm then a forest, and I meeting with many discouragements incident to ! that day, when the inhabitants were scattered and ! the improvements and privileges few : yet with energy and perseverance he has cleared away the j forest, living to behold in its place the beautiful j and well-cultivated fields. Mr. Pierce was permitted to remain on earth ' longer than the most of men, very few attaining | the age of 86. But to the very close of his life he was an active man. As long as his physical pow- j ers would admit, he was engaged in active toil, j and when becoming too much broken down by age to be engaged in constant labor, be was still active in such labors as he was able to perform. He was of a cheerful disposition, a pleasing c ompanion for all ages, and possessed a marked equinimity of mind, which, as well as all his faculties he retained to the last. Yet age made its marks upon him, 1 and it was plainly evident that he was growing more and more feeble, yet never murmuring or even complaining. The last years of bis life were ! made pleasant by the constant care and affection j of his daughters who remained with him, watching j over him with much tenderness and love. They provided him every comfort in their power, which tended much to smooth his pathway to the tomb. And though they still most keenly feel the loss of \ their beloved father, they cannot reproach them- ! selves, as is too often the case, that they have i been unkind or negligent. As approaching mortality made it every day ! more evident that his stay on earth must be short, his faith in mother world of light was more firm. The last years of his life were spent in humble trust in Jesus of Nazareth. The bible was his constant companion. He found its blessed truths comforting and cheering, and much of the New j Testament, especially, was committed to memory, so that in the darkness of night, when in private j devotion he has been heard to repeat whole chap- j ters. He was also particularly fond of books of a j religious character, such as Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress, which he was engaged in reading the j day that he died. To one of his daughters on the evening of that day he remarked, he "had read j that book many times, but never before with so much comfort." Unconscious of it, he was almost home, where his trials and perplexities, incideet to this world are ended, and where he was to re ceive the christian's crown. He greatly loved the sanctuary, and never was absent from public worship, when health and the weather would permit of his being present, and in deed, often in blustry weather, was his place in the honse of the Lord filled, when others yonnger and more robust were deterred. For a long time be bad been desirous of making a public profession of his his faith in Christ, and had made his plans thus to do the Sabbath following the one on which he was buried. He desired to sit down to the ta ble of the Lord with His people here, but "he who doeth all things well" saw fit to remove him before that time, we trust, to that place where be may sit down to the ' 'marriage supper of the Lamb." " Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth ; yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors; and their works do j follow them." H. J. C.
