PROPOSALS
The ur'fce'nt solicitations of numerous friends, and the prospect of liberal; patronage,
"have induced tho undersigned to issue these proposals, nnd ask tho support of the pub
'lic. In politics, tho "Porrsvitut Eairoiutnt" will zealously support the principles and
candidates of the Democratic party, and particularly tho nominee of tho Ctli of March
Convention : But, asido from paity feeling, it shall bo our main object to enhance tho
interests of our fellow-citizens, by p'romotinff that industry and enterprizc which charac
lise the operation;) of tho Coal Kcgion. We shall go for the honest many against tho
designing few on all occasions, reverencing that principle in our political creed, and op
posing any Monopoly which may retard the exercise 'of individual rights, or have the
tendency to put dovvli individual industry and enterprise. In fine, our object shall be
o promote the welfare of the community amongst whom wo live to pleaso and in
struct and with ho other promises, we shall commence our paper, hoping that our ex
perience both as mechanical printers and editors, may fit us for our task, and afford that
gratification to patrons which ncvoi fails to induce the necessary recompense for servi
"ces rendered in a laudable undertaking.
At present there is but onp English prper published in tho county of Schuylkill a
county whose territory is completely spotted with ullages, and whose citizens rank
amongst the most intelligent, industrious and enterprising of tho commonwealth. In
1835, Schuylkill polled almost 2500 votes, and tho combined Democratic vote exceeded
1000. Then wo doubt not of the success of our establishment, provided tho exertion of

ScSP-varyiiag Sqsiarc EEs.tfc,
For measuring and drafting coals, in con
nection with another new and useful rule
for cutting sale or boy's coat's upon a more
familiar plan ; also, superior rules for cut
ting all other garments incumbent on that
branch, aro now offered to the trade by tho
subscribers ; beliving them to surpass eve
ry thing of tho kind which has proceeded
them.
SELF-VARYING RULE.
Great imperfections in tho art and liabil
ities to produce amiss-fit have been stand
ing before tho cutter ever since the intro
duction of rules, filling the mind with fear
and anxiety, until tho coat is finished and
tried on, at which crisis the blood is often
caused to rush into the faco at beholding a
bad fitting coat. .
The rules,, with one or two exceptions,
which have been in use ever since the first
invention of the kind, were wholly predi
cated upon principles giving the same pro
portion for every man, which principles
would long since have boon superceded by
self-varying rules, had tailors but thought
that tho variation in the proportions of men's
bodies arc almost as many as in the features
of tho face.
Two or three rules styled Self-varying,
have, made their appearance within about as
many years, each invcntoi claiming the hon
or of having perfected the art, upon which J.
G. Wilson, of New York, entitled his sys
tem perfect ; but instead of being perfect,
it contains, many erroneous principles, which
tho subscribers forbear to point out until
that genllcmari assails this assertion. All
such systems have heretofore been dofective
in two ways : First, they arc only in pari
self-varying. Secondly, those parts which
are intended to be self-varying are defective.
In fact, there aro ccttain points on the coat '
which cannot bo effected by self-varying
principles in any other way, nor by any
other means, than thoso laid down by the
subscribers.
Unlike any other of the kind, this sys
tem now offered to the trade is conducted
without any breast measure, and effects ev
ery point artd every part of tho coat by self
varying principles, in a way calculated to
convict tho senses of any reasonable man,
that should it ever fail to produce a good fit
upon any shape whatever, the charge must
be laid to a careless and incorrect measure
ment. It may seem mysterious that this
rule is said to be self-varying, and yet a
square rule a square rule and yet conduct
ed without a breast measure ; but tho whole
mystery will be unfolded at once by exam
ination. Unwilling to have it said that tho
subscribers are attempting to palm this sys
tem upon tiie Irado with misrepresentations,
they avow 'their willingness to submit it in
to tho hands of an impartial committee for
an examination of its principles, in compar
ison with any other ever invented in tho
United States, at Philadelphia or New York,
which committee shall make tho decision
known through the press, Tho subscri
bers set all systems which are governed
wholly by the breast measure aside as in
ferior and not worthy to compare with j
consequently they will compare with none
but such r.s are governed in part by self
vary ing principles. For if the principles
hero offered to the trade ate not worthy of
patrfortagc it is right that it should bo made
Ktiowit, and they sink into oblivion. On the
contrary, i they arc round as above repres-i
anted, or if thereby the subscriber hive put
an end u all furthrr improvement in the
art of cutting coats ihey deserve some pat
ronage aijd compensation, for their exertions.
