William Combo, 0110 of tho fow rrol
veterans of tho.-n-ar of 1812 surviving un
til this year, died a few days ago at tho
residence of his son, at Arlington, Minn,
lie una bom at Hpringficltl, Otsego
county, New York, in the year 1790. At
tho time of William's birth, his father,
Samuel Combe, of Livingstone Manor,
who had Berved in the Revolution, was a
conspicuous figure on tho then borders
of civilization, and for many years after
ward he and his six stalwart sons bore a
prominent part in the many sanguinary
conflicts that marked the early history of
tho Western frontier. The Combes were
of warrior stoek, and traced their ances
try turougn tne i nritans 01 Jlnssacliu-
setts colony back to the reign of Eliza
beth. Kamuel Combo and his sons were mon
of great physical strength and indomita
ble courage. Tho youngest boy is men
tioned in old records of his native county
and regions further West, as a giant in
stature and a Milo in strength.
William Combo, whoso death is just
announced, was a dragoon in Capt. liar-
ris's company, and was with (leu. Win- 1
field Scott at Chippewa, Lundy's Lane,
anil l'ort Ueorge; and Ins gray cent was
more than onco made n special target by
tho British marksmen in the fights at
Niagara, Quoenstown Heights, Kackett's
Harbor, and Handy Creek. At tho close
of the war he settled at Jordan, Ononda
ga county, New York, but being of a
restless disposition, and fond of exciting
adventure, ho was ever longing for an op
portunity to take part again in scenes
such as had been his delight in the past.
When the rebellion broke or, his son ;
having entered the army, Urj .. I lmiu
shouldered a musket and fought at South
Mountain and Antietam.
Only one of William Combe's brothers
is known to survive him. He is Charles
Combe, now a resident of Brooklyn, L.
I., and in his 81st year.
Tho youngest brother, Jonas, men
tioned above as the giant, was of a tur
bulent disposition, and was constantly
involved in fights, out of which ho al
ways marched with flying colors. His
prowess was universally acknowledged.
Ho rarely fought one hum at a time,
sooruing to engage with fewer than from
three to half a dozen of good size and
weight. The crowning achievement of
his lii'o as a gladiator, and perhaps the
last as ho was never heard of after the
occurrence of tho incident here related
was his victory, single handed, over a
mob of 150 infuriated and reckless
Frenchmen of Detroit, just after the
close of the War of 1812. The present
city was then a village, or more properly
a trading post, inhabited mainly by
French Cunadians of the ruder class.
Jonas had aroused the ire of some of the
men, and afraid to assail him except in
force, they arranged a plan by which he
should be annihilated without the possi
bility of a failure. This was no less than
that tho whole community of adult Ca
nadians should surround him in the
woods beyond the settlement, and end
his career by beating liira to death. Jo
nas was unarmed. Each of his enemies
carried a club or a stone. They formed
a circle about him, and at a signid closed
in upon him. Wetting his broad back
firmly against the trunk of a giant oak,
Jonas calmly awaited the onslaught of his
yelling foemen. Closer and closer they
came, their ranks growing more and more
compact at every step. At last the press
was upon him. Club strokes thick and
font luliieil ilortu ujmii bin head itud
shoulders, and jagged stones whirled by
Btrong-armed marksmen cut and bruised
his stalwart body, and his days seemed
numbered. Suddenly he dashed for
ward and charged the center of the mass
in his front, and men fell about him right
and left as ho moved onward, forcing a
way with his huge body, and dealing
crushing blows on all sides with his
brawny lists. It was a sight such as had
never been seen since tho day when Sam
son slew the Philistines. The French
men were dismayed. Those who were
still unhurt parted to right and left in
open disorder, and tho young Hercules,
with body streaming with blood, with
nothing left upon him but his boots,
sought safety in rapid flight toward the
deeper forest and the broad waters be
yond. Jonas was never seen again, al
though about fifty years ago it was said
that a man answering his description was
drowned in the Mississippi; and a little
later old trappers reported that one
similar in many respects was killed in
Oregon.
Characteristics of Prentice.
The truth is, says his biographer,
CV'orge D. Prentiee was altogether de
void of tho smallest apprehension in re
gard to potential " dilliculties," as they
aro termed down there. He had nono
of the extreme nervousness generally
evinced by fighting men. He was al
ways self-possessed, very quiet, rather
preoccupied than otherwise, apt to give
any one unacquainted with him tho im
pression of phlegmatic temperament.
He was of medium height, large
limbed, stooping a little in the latter
part of his life; neat though careless in
dress; looking more like u rustic shop
keeper than a poet, wit, or urban jour
nalist. His face was plain homely
would not be too strong an adjective
his features somewhat heavy; his eyes
small and hazel, very expressive when
lighted up by conversation. His head
was finely shaped, his brow being
broad, noble, intellectual noticeably at
variance with the lower part of his vis
age. In the office he was usually taci
turn, seeming morose at times, though
not really so. When spoken to, he al
ways replied with noticeable courtesy ;
and if ho began to tidk on any topic lie
felt an interest in, his entire uppearauee
and demeanor changed. He was irregu
larly industrious. Few men worked
harder when he did work, and fow avoid
ed labor more eagerly when labor was
not to his mind. He frequently wrote
in a single day four or live, even six,
columns of the Journal; and then he
would not write another line for a week.
Generally, he had performing periods
extending from one to threo months ;
after which he would eschew manuscript
completely until the toilsome fit re
turned. Such Hair.
Lucy Hooper, in her last Paris letter,
says of the German hair trade : " The
highest-priced hair is pure white, long
tresses of which are sold not by the
pound but by the single hair, each hair
being valued at about half a cent. The
most valuable of the natural hues is pale
gold ; a switch of that color was dis
played, valued at nearly $100, even in
that wholesale mart. The greatest curi
osity I saw at Wetzlar was a switch of
light brown hair, measuring six feet in
length, and for which 8100 had been paid
to the original owner thereof. This un-
Earidleled braid is to be reserved for ex
ibition at our Centennial."

port, Nov. 14, 1874.
To the Board of Managert:
Genti.emex After a full and Impartial ex
amination of the articlod doncrilted, the uudor
Bigncd judges make the following
BTOttT-AUHTnACT)!
That Sewing-macliiue No. 4110 (Wheel
er fe Wilson's New No. 0) was claimed
to bo so great an improvement, both
upon tho well-known family machine
made by the same company, and upon
all other sewing-machines, as entitled it
to recognition as a new nnd valuable in
vention. Under these circumstances, an
extremely thorough and minute examina
tion became both desirable and necessary,
not only of its novelty but of the skill
and workmanship manifested in tho
fitting and adjustment of all its ports.
We have risen from such examination
with an ample conviction that the claim,
in all its essential features, is well
founded.
At the commencement of our ex
amination, we were provided with several
complete sets of all tho working ports an
they canio from tho manufactory, and
were at liberty to make our own selection
for the construction
of a complete ma
chine in our presence. We thus hnd. to
a large degree, n demonstration of the 1
nicety of the manufacture. Every part was j
formed to fit every other part with exact !
precision. So accurately, for instance, ;
did the several rotating hooks fit in the
same hearing, that while entering it.
each one of them, without such contact
as required force, manifestly compressed
the air within in reaching its proper seat.
The' judges enumerate and describe
sonio of the points of novelty and excel
x:iri' of the machine. Among others:
The simple and efficient device for pro
ducing variable motion for the rotating
hook ;
Tho independent take-up lever, which
secures tho tightening of the stitch un
der the best possible circumstances;
The peculiar form of the hook and the
use of a bobbin holding a great quantity
01 me tinner uueau;
The simple device for producing aud
varying the tension of the lower thread;
The hollow steel needle-bar;
Tho facility of applying aud using
many useful attachments the hemmer,
binder, corder, rultler, &c
Having completed the construction of
our trial machine, in the way indicated,
it was mounted upon a convenient stand,

ted upon it properly and well, and with
out other adaptation than simple changes
of needle and thread. The mere list of
operations performed in our presence
without the slightest hesitation or failure
and without the discoverable loss of so
much as a single stitch, would convey an
inadequate idea of the complete success
achieved,
Beginning with a needle measuring
but 17-1000 inch in diameter, ami opera
ting with the fiuest thread upon Lice
goods, the same machine passed through
all the stages of muslin, and broadcloth
of all conceivable thicknesses and fold
ings aud ridgings, and then with waxed
threud stitching through portions of
heavy harness leather.
After this demonstration of its range
of work, we entered upon the nicer tests
required for 0 family and light manufac
turing machine. In this department we
witnessed all the varieties of work on
j hemming, felling, and braiding, and also
a degree 01 success in single nun iiotiDte
rnrHiiier which we hnliovo unparalleled.
The varied kinds of work 011 a lady's
boot were then performed, and each of
these with the same marked success. In
deed, whatever the test, and wliatever
the work presented, tho same unfailing
perfection, was exhibited, not only in the
work as a piece, but in the execution of
each individual stitch. With much pa
tient examination, we were unuble to
discover a single defect. j
!
j The minuteness of this report is a sim-
I pie reflection of the care with which we
; have endeavored to examine these claims, j
I We find the chief advantage of this ma-
1 chine to be in the use of a modified form
: of the rotating hook as a substitute for '
1 tho shuttle, the hook currying the upper ,
I thread around the bobbin containing the ;
j lower threud, and thus producing identi
i cully the same ellW-t as the shuttle. The '
i superiority of this rotary motion over the
! reciprocating motion of the shuttle ma- :
j chines cannot be disputed. The "lock
i stitch " which is thus secured has always
I ranked highest on account of tho permit- '
' nence, beauty, and general desirableness I
j of the stitching when done, aud the -wide '
range of its application. ;
To these conceded advantages there j
have been added, in our presence, the
severest and most searching tests of its I
capacity and usefulness upon every j
ordinarily possible kind of work, and ;
we can do no less than bear witness to j
the entire und remarkable success which I
has attended its action in every part of j
our examination, it is a maentne wmeti
b)l the proof mifntiittrd, we are
satis-
fir.il tmtxt rrvntitall.il Hitprrwde all other
now known with which it comes in coni
pi ttiion.
As the only conclusion to which we
can arrive after an investigation of the
several merits of each of the sewing
machines submitted, an investigation
wliicli we have endeavored to make pa
tiently and completely in every respect,
nnd associating these with our best
judgment upon the merits of the sev
eral machines which ore in use but not
on exhibition:

The Problem of Pauperism.
Dr. Charles S. Iloyt, secretary of the
New York State Board of Charities.gives
some exceedingly interesting facts rela
tive to pauperism. Dr. Hoyt says he
has found that pauperism becomes in
0110 sense a disease. When one member
of a family once enters a poor-houso tho
others follow inevitably. Dr. noyt said
that before he began tliis work ho had
the opinion that a great many of the in
mates of poor-houses were those who had
seen better circumstances; but he had
found that this was not the case. The
majority of paupers faro better iu the
alms-houses than they ever did before
entering. In the poor-house of 0110
county lie found 86 inmates. These 8(5
inmates came from 07 families, 25 of
them were under sixteen years of age, and
12 were born in tho house. These per
sons had lived an aggregate of (SU9 years
at the expense of the county. Home
of the inmates had pauper fathers, 28
had pauper mothers, 3 pauper graud
futhers, 5 pauper grandmothers,9 pauper
brothers, 17 puuper sisters, 11 pauper
uncles, and 13 pauper aunts. The 07
families which were represented by these
0 paupers, had proilucea 11)1 ilepen- !
dents, 21 lunatics and 25 idiots, 2M i
drunkards, and 4 State prison convicts. ;
Of these inmates, 22 were parents of chil- j
dren, 17 of whom were also inmates of ;
the institution, SM said to be self-support- j
ing, and 0 bound out. These facts show- 1
ed the tendency that pauperism had of
passing from generation to generation.
A new era is opening upon the system
of public charity by the enforcement of a
rule that excludes children from alms- .
houses. This is to be one great remedy
for pauperism the placing of children
in orphan asylums instead of iu the alms
houses. In 1808 25 per cent, of the in
mates of the poor-houses of tho counties
of Broome, Tioga, Cortland and Dela-
ware were intelligent children. In that i
venrsevernlhwlipsnnd rretl,.,e,1 nm.le I
mnmpnb fnr ,r.W theso nl.il.lr..,,
in an orphan asylum in Binghamton,
where they ore supported by paying a
small mimjirr capita. The consequence
is that the children are being taught aud
prepared for lives of usefulness aud the
paupers tu-e decreasing. In all but four
or five of the counties in New York State
the supervisors liave adopted the rule of
sending tho intelligent children to
asylums instead of to the poor-houses.
I5y this means there are fewer women in
the alms-house, from the fact that they
will not stay where they cannot have
their children with them. On tho whole,
Dr. Hoyt said pauperism was on the de
crease. The amount of pauperism re
sulting from crime and dissipation still
remains the same.
Hog-Packlug Statistics.
The J'rice Current, a leading authority
upon hog-packing statistics, gives a very
full preliminary report of the pork pack
ing in the West, lletnrns have been re
ceived from points which packed last
season nine-tenths of all packed at interior-
points, which give the aggregate
packing to dates, ranging from ilth to
Kith of December, at 279 points as 1,190,
000 head, against 1,097,000, an increase
of 93,000. These points packed last
season a total of 1,887,000, out of 2,08-1,-000,
the whole number packed at in
terior points during the season of 1873
and 1874. The average of weights in
dicates a falling off of about 21 pounds
per head, or 10 per cent, from the last
season, with fully a corresponding de
crease in the yield of lard. Xo estimates
are given for the season as it is desigued
to fiUTiish such information two weeks
later ; when such estimates can be more
satisfactorily and reliably calculated.
The packing at the sis principal cities is
oiven nt '2 I 10 000 lipnil in d.ire n.r.,,W
fp-1 1,1 A"JI,.,,,,M K "Ate, against
2,070,000 lnut year. The interior points
not heard from inu'keil 11)0,951 head lust
season, nnd should these points show a
j corresponding increase this season, the
total packing at the interior points, m
round numbers, is 1,100,000, and includ
ing tho six leading cities, aggregates 3,
40U.000 head, against 3,280,000 last year.
The Wheat Crop.
It would appear, from ti long article in j
a Xew York paper, that the wants of j
Great Britain in the wheat line average !
about 850,000 bushels per week, and j
America being this year about the only I
source of supply, we may expect steady j
prices.' Iu the crop year 1872-73 Great j
lintaiu imported about 1(10,000,000
bushels of wheat, and her estimated re
quirements for the crop year from Sep
tember 1, 1873, to August 31, 1871, from
foreign imports, have been placed at 00,
(HtO.OOO to 100,000,000 bushels of wheat.
France, usually n large exporter of wheat,
lias been in the present crop year an im
porter to the extent of about 40,000,000
bushels of wheat, and Eussia, that has
had in some previous years as high ns
00,000,000 bushels annual surplus wheat
for export, had scarcely half the amount
from her crop of 1873. The United
States in 1873 had a wheat crop estimated
by the Agricultural Department at 277,
372,000 bushels, which probably, iu fac,
exceeded 310,000,000 bushels, ns about
88,000,000 bushels have already been ex
ported, aud 221,250,000 bushels are
approximately required for seeding 20,'
000,000 acres of wheat, and the food re
quirements of about 43,500,000 people.
The Congressional Library.
The Congressional Library at Wash
ington contains 274,157 volumes, an in
crease of 18,405 volumes during the past
year. The present rate of increase will
swell the library to 500,000 volumes in
loss than twenty years, to more than
1,000,000 in fifty years, and to 2,000,000
volumes before a century passes; this,
too, without any increase of the present
extremely modest appropriation of
$11,500 for the annual purchase of books.
The librarian says that no enlargement
of the capitol likely to be agreed upon
can possibly furnish either permanent or
appropriate accommodations for so great
a library as this is becoming, and he con
cludes that a separate building, con
structed with reference to its present
necessities and future growth, is de

economy and public policy.
We never get excited in reading of
the mysterious disappearance oi "a
handsome young lady about eighteen
years old." They are generally heard
from in about a week, asking the old
man if he will forgive and forget, and
if they may bring Charles Henry home.

Another Warning.
One more terrible warning against the j
foolish practice of playing with firearms i
is contained in the story of the shooting
of a police captain in Brooklyn. Ac
cording to the !'t;itement of the man who 1
tired tho pistol, he was examining it, not ,
tliinking it was loaded, when he snapped :

An old farmer who has watched the I
weather forty years, says that when the !
first snow is followed by ruin, such is in- i
variably the case with every snow storm '
of the winter.
Indisputable Evidence.
St. Ki.mo, 111., Julv 8. 1H71.
It. V. Pierce. M. 1)., JttifTuIo. N. V. : I wish
to add my testimony to the wonderful curative
properties of vour Alt. Kxt.. or (Jolilen Medical
Discovery. 1 have taken great interest in this
medicine since 1 first used it. I was badly
alllictcd with dyspcimia. liver deranged and nil
almost perfect prostration of the nervous svs
tcm. So rapid and complete did the discovery
effect a perfect cure thut it seemed more like
magio and a perfect wonder to mvself, and
since that time we have never been without
n bottle of the discovery and Purgative Pellets
iu iue iiuuse. j ney are a sona, sound family :
phj-siciun in the Iiouse and ready at all times to
fly to the relief of sickness without charge. '
We have never had a doctor in the house since j
vie first began the use of your pellets and
discovery. I have recommended the use of
these medicines in several severe and compli- :
cated cases arising from, as I thought, an
impure stato of the blood, and in no one case ;
have they failed to do more than accomplish all
they are claimed to do. I wiU onlv mention
one as remarkable ( though I could give vou I
dozens). Henry Koster, furniture dealer, of I
this pluce, who was one of the most pitiful i
objects ever seen, his face swollen out of shape, :
scales and eruptions without end, extending to i
the body, which was completolv covered with I
blotches and scales. Nothing" that he took I
sceiuod to effect it a particle. 1 tiuullv induced t
him to try a few bottles of the (iolde'u Medical
Discovery, with daily use of thepollets, assuring
him that it would surely cure him. He com- j
meuced its two some six weeks since, taking two :
pellets each night for a week, then one each I
night, and the discovery as directed. Tho re
sult is. to-day his skin is perfectly smooth, and
the scaly eruptions are gone, lie has taken I
some seven or eight bottles in all. and considers I
; Vurea- , Jnis case uau Datne.l the skill '
. f,t om. )eHt physicians. Messrs. Dinifor,! I
Co., druggists, of this place, are selling largely
of your medicines and the demand steadil'v
increases, and they give perfect satisfaction iii I
every case. Respectfully, i

When a man discovers a great truth, it tt

The use of Dr. Walker's v'laegar Bitters
cannot be too strongly rocoimefe
the invalid public. To those .'vl1. n
tried it, nothing Heed bo said th...'
perience is their proof, pure and po 1 .
as Holy Writ. To those who have nvl
tried it, these truths cannot be too often
repeated. It is a certain vegetable spe
cific, which aids faltering nature against
the triumphs of dyspepsia, bilious difl'
orders of every kind, malarious fevers,
constipation of the bowels, liver com
plaint, spring and fall debility, etc., etc.
It costs tint little, and can always be at
hand. It is the poor man's friend. It
saves a doctor's bill, and the time lost in
driiug live, ten or twenty miles after
liim ; besides being free from nil the
poisonous medicaments of the pharmo
eoponii. It will not stimulate yon to
day to leave you weaker to-morrow. Its
benefits are permanent. Com.
