This invention consists in having an adjusta
ble wrist pin attached to a fly wheel and fitted
'within, a slotted vibrating arm which has a rod
pointed to it at right angles, the parts being so
arranged as to convert a rotary into reciproca
ting motion and vice versa. And not the least
important part of this invention, is the fact that
there is such an arrangement of means that
there is the least possible loss or absorption by
friction. This invention is important in every
hind of machinery when these two motions—
reciprocating and rotary—are used in connec--
lion with each other. Messrs Smead & Tabor
have not as yet applied it to anything hut
chums, but even in this application, the utili
ty this principle and its importance in Me
chanics are plainly seen. Although it cost the
inventor three years of attention in making
experiments, it is perfectly simple and will last
for years without repairs

Had it been the milk-and-water generalities of
some third rate lawyer of that place, it might
have been palatable. The outrage on Mr.
Rogers,- and upon civilized hospitality and de
cency was this: The presiding officer laid a
note written by the Secretary before the lecturer
asking him to stop, which was properly un

officer aforesaid interrupted the lecturer, and
asked the audience whether they would listen

hesitation in saying that such an act of boorish

We are glad to be able to say that people
there are not all as ignorant as the officers of
this Society. A correspondent of the 'natch
man—though that paper keeps mom on the
subject—writes an earnest and manly rebnke
of this conduct from which we make an ex
tract :
“How strange it is .that men'who would -pro
fess classic veneration for a crumbling arch on
‘the Apputn way/ or a broken column amid
the ruins of Rome, can point the finger of de
rision at the fragmentary remains of a noble
mind, and smile at the rehearsal of exploits
which once thrilled the very hearts of Europe.”
We can only add the remark that Allison
White who voted in Congress the other day
against a resolution condemning the reopening
of the African Slave Trade, hails from that re
markable town.

“I had n teht modem Melbourne,in 1853, in which

with one of Grover A Baker’s Machines, and a single
seam of that has outstood all the double seams sewed
by sailors with a needle and twine."

HOW TO HAKE BUTTER.
USE tbo Now Machine invented by E. A. Smead,
to operate your common Dash Churns, it con be
applied to any size. You can regulate the stroke to
any required length from two to fourteen inches, by
the adjustable wrist pin in the fly wheel by which mo
tion Is imparled to the dash. A child can operate it
with ease. See that the Inventor'* name it on the ma
chine before yonpnnhatt.' Price, Five Dollars.
This machine Is the result of throe years experi
ments, and has been pronounced by scientific men
to be perfect. 1 obtained a glass churn lost year in
which I could witness the agitation produced by the
different length stroke, this showed the advantage of
having the adjustable wrist pin, as tho stroke must be
in proportion to the amount of cream or milk to be
churned. Letters Patent of the United States are
now ponding, and all persons are cautioned not to in

Dr. Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry.
WHERE the above preparation is known, it is so well es
tablished as an infallible Remedy for the cure of—
Coughs, Colds, Sore Throat, Uoabseress, Bronchitis. Spit*
ting op Blood, Pain in tax Breast,, Choci*, IVhqopinoCocoii,
and every form of Pulmonary Complaint, that 16 were a work
of hupererogation to speak of its merits. i j
Discovered by a celebrated physician more ' than twenty
years since, it has by the wonderful cures it effected been
constantly appreciating in public favor, until its use and jits
use and its reputation are alike universal; and |t is now well
kuown and cherished by all (and their “nameiillegion”) who
hare been restored to health by its use ns the threat Remedy
for all the diseases which it professes to cure. • i
Sir James Clarke, physician to tioeen Victoria, has-given
it as his opinion that |_ j
CONSUMPTIONVAN BECU&ED. \
The whole history of this medicine fully confirms the opin
ion of that eminent man. Thousands can testify, and have
testified, that when all other remedies had failed, this hud
completely cured; that when the sufferer liad p’dl nigh des
paired, this had afforded i aimed laws relief; that when J the
physician had pronounced the disease incurable, this has re
moved it entirely. |
The virtues of this Balsam are alike applicable to cure a
slight cold or a Coxfirxkd Consumption, and its powerlasa
safe, certain, speedy, plcasaut and effectual renjedy cannot be
equalled. * ; I
