But experience of what ofc'jCrs have done
•will best tell us what we may rifotfully expect
to do. Lot us compare oar posit' jnwith that of
Great Britain during one of pe

her great wars in 1816, her v.valtft was esti

($10,400,000,000) and hs'r of that

■debt was three thousand eijjt t-hundred and

show that the might of the burd >n of this debt is

gULPHITE OF LIME gP ™g CIDER, at
SMITH’S IMPROVED GREEN MOUNTAIN
Shingle and Heading Machine.
It was Awarded the First Premium Silver Me
-dal, at the New-York State Agricultural
Fair, at Utica, in 1803, and at all
other Fairs where Exhibited.
THIS important improvement in machines for man
ufacturing shingles and heading, the inventor
bus the pleasure of introducing to the public; a ma
chine which has proved itself, beyond a doubt, deci
dedly the most perfect, the best und cheapest machine,
that has ever yet been introduced. As shingles and
heading are articles of great demand and of much im
portance, the aim and object of the inventor has been
to get up a machine that would make them ns near
perfect to the bbst shaved, and with the greatest dis
patch, possible. With much labor and expense he has
succeeded in accomplishing his object; which fact is
testified to by those who have the machines in use,—
The superiority and many important advantages this
machine has ovor others, are: It has no complicated
parts liable to derangement; simple in its construc
tion, yet strong and durable ; perfectly safe and easy
in operating; does the work in a vef-y perfect man
ner, equally as well on beading of different kinds—
cutting obliquely or otherwise, as desired. The saw
running horizontal, cutting lengthwise of the bolt;
the carriage traveling only io proportion to tbewdfh
of the shingle or heading, and are made to cut from
10 to 24 inches in length, works np the timber very
close; will cut from 1000 to 1600 per hour of shingles,
takes up bat little room, occupying only about four
feet square, not weighing over 285 lbs.; "can he driven
by any kind of ordinary power; a very compact ma
chine to ship. The cost of the machine is small com
pared with its value. » ‘ j
The following are a few of the many testimonials
which can be produced : ,
Middlebuby, Vt., Aug. 25, 1863.
Me, Emerson Smith, Dear Sir!—You wish to know
our opinion of your improved shingle and beading
machine. We have had one of them in use some time
have cut about 800,900 from various kinds of timber.
-Jt boa done the work In the most satisfactory manner.
Have lost no time nor expense on account of the ma
chine getting ont of order.. It ,is a very perfect ma
chine ; easy and safe to opejrate. We have used dif
ferent kinds of shingle mackines. Yours we must say
"bxccls all others in Svcry respect. We would not be
willing to take four times! the cost of the machine,
could we not procure another of the same.
Yours truly, ABBY & NICHOLS.

Mr, B . F. Eaton, Dear Sir:—The Green.Mountnin
shingle and heading machine, frhieh we purchased of
you, we have the satisfaction of saying we.a:e highly

consider it decidedly the best and most valuable ma
chine that we have ever seen or nsed. Wo do not
hesitate in recommending it to any one.
Respectfully, LEWIS, ROSE A CO.
East MrnnLEßcnv. Vt., Aug. 23, 1863,
Emerson Smith, Dear Sir :—Your patent shingle and
heading machine has satisfied me that, it is decidedly
the best and cheapest machinein use. It is very sim
ply constructed, not liable to derangement, aperiectlj'
safe and easy machine to work. It will cut from ID
to 15,000 per day; the saw running horizontal, cut
ling lengthwise the grain, makes much more per
fect shingles and heading than can bo made by any
machine that cats across tne; grain. Your machine
must prove a great success Yours with respect,
CHANDLER TILLOTSON,
Greenville, N. T., Sept. 1,1863.
Mr. B. F. Eaton, Dear Sir:—Wo have used Smith's
improved machine in different kinds of timber. It
does its work well beyond our expectations; it is a
very perfect machine in every respect- .We think it
cannot but take the place of other mac lines when
introduced. Yours respectfully,

SOSTBTTEB’S
CELEBRATED
STOMACH
BITTERS;
A Pure and Powerful Tonic , Corrective and
Alterative, of Wonderful Efficacy,
in Diseases of the
STOMACH, LIVER AND BOWELS;
Cures Dyspepsia, Liv ** r Complaint, Headache, Gen
eral Debility, Nervou «nass. Depression of Spi
rits, Constipation, Intermittent Fe
vers. Cramps and Spi I ®™®* ®nd Com

Bodily Weakness, w.hetbav in

Causes.
Nothing that Is not wholesome, genial and 1
Its nature, enters into the composition of 8
STOMACH BITTERS. This popular preparation contains
no mineral of any kind, no deadly botanical f so
fiery excitant; hut it is a combination of the extr.'-ci* of
rare balsamic herbs and plants, with the purest and mi»deB{
of all diffusive stimulants.
It Is well to be forearmed against disease, and, so far as
the human system can be protected by human means against
maladies engendered by an unwholesome atmosphere, im
pure water, and other external causes. UOSTETTEU’S BIT
TERS may be relied on as a safeguard.
In districts infested with Etvsr and Ague, It has been
found infallible a preventive, and irresistible as a remedy,
and thousands who resort to it under apprehension of an at
tack, escape the scourge; and thousands who neglect to
avail themselves of its productive qualities in advance, are
cured by a very brief course of this marvelous medicine. —
Fever and Ague patients, after being plied with quinine for
months in vain, until fairly saturated with that dangerous
alkaloid, are not unfreqnentlv restored to health within a
few dajH by the use of lIOsTETTKR’S BITTERS.
The weak stomach is rapidly invigorated and the appetite
restored by this agreeable tonic; and hence.it works won
ders in cases of Dispepsia end in less confirmed forms of
Indigestion. Acting us a gentle ami painless apperient, as
well as upon the liver, it also invariibly relieves the Consti
pation superinduced by irregular action of tbe digestive and
secretiveorgam*.
Persons of feeble habit, liable to Ferrous Aliacls, Low
ness o/Spirits ntvl Fit* o/Languor* find prompt and per
manent relief from the Bitters. Thetestimony on this point
is most conclusive, and from both sexes.
The agony of Diliors Coilc is immediately assuaged by a
single dose ot the stimulant, and by occasionally resorting
to it, the return of the complaint may be prevented.
As a general tonic, HOSTETTEII’S BITTERS produce ef
fects which mast be experienced or witnessed before they
can bo fully apprecialdd* In coses of Constitute nal HWiA*-
7?A.ur, f remature Decay, and Debilitj and Decrepitude aris
ing from old age, it exercises the electric influence. In the
convalescent stagfes of nil diseases, it operates as a delightful
iuvigor.int. When tho powers of nature are op
erates to rd-cnforcennd re-establish them.
Last, but not least. It is Tk Only Safe Stijjxulant, -.being
manufactured from sound and inoeaous materials, and en
tiiely free from the acid element* pi vent more or less in all
the ordinary tonics and stomachics of the day
No family medicine Ims beea bo univt i>ally, and, it may
be truly added, deservedly popular with hte intelligent por
tion of the comm* nity,av UoSTKTTEIt’S BITTERS.
