Many of our subscribers will Grid bills in
to day's paper to which we earnestly, ask
he'm lo pay ;;heir earliest -attention and
send vt the money September Court, p re
sents a good opportunity to many indebted
to bring or send' their amounts due. . Bills
"shall be sent to all as, fast as they, can be
"made out, bnt our friends know nearly how
-1 Vnnch is due rjs.on subscription or other
Arise, and can remit without dtlay; if they
fcnly feel so disposed. A few dollars "each
may not seem of consequence, but multiply
- by the huncheds in arreirs aid the amount
is important to the printer.. We hare sent
onr paper to Bome over two year3 and a
half without receiving one cent, and we
- can't afford to send it much longer without
" being paid up, neither would we if we could.
. it would be much . better for tolh patron
and editor to hare the subscription bills
pquared up in advance, or at least during the
year, and no permit them to run one, two
and three years, unpaid. Such work will
break up an editor, if he allows his patrons
to presist in that course. Now, we do not
intend it to be practiced upon us J we want
every man who owes us to pay up. This
notice is not intended for those who pay lis
in advance, but unfortunately this portion
of our patrons is beautifully smatl.
fatal Accident.
On Wednesday morning last, a terrible
accident happened opposite our Borough
which resulted in the death by drowning,
of Richard Campbell, son . of Joseph Camp
bell of Rash township,' Northumberland
county. It appear Mr. Campbell was cross
ing the river on the Ferry Hat, having with
him a young horse attached to a spring
wagon. The horse, unfortunately, stepped
upon the fall board 'astened by a hinge to
the front of the flat, which going down, car
ried the horse with it, and threw Mr. Camp
bell out into the stream. The river, being
high and rapid, carried him out" of reach,
and be was drowned," before assistance
could be extended to him, ahhoush there
wer several persons on the flat at the time
The body was recovered some time after.
The horse was quickly extricated from the
Yehicle. and swam to shore. ' .
The deceased was well known here as a
most worthy ami respectable gentleman,"
and was the only stay of his mother and
sister, who in a moment have been bereft
of a dutiful son and. kind brother.. Verily,
how little we know what a day or hour may
bring forth. Our hold of life is as fragile as
the gossamer-web which snaps at the
lightest breeze, may we profit by the sad
lesson recorded above Dat.cilt'e Intelligen
cer. Tub straight-out Douglas orgafls appear
to have been struck dumb with amazement
at the way which the Douglas press of the
State comes down. upon their movement to
run a separate electoral ticket for the bene
fit of Lincoln. Deprived of all sympathy
from the true friends of Douglas, they oc
cupy a position which commands the most
heartfelt commiseration.' We sincerely trust
that the wounds Inflicted upon the straight
oat managers by the Douglas press may be
blessed to their complete restoration to
political -health; ' The 'first effect of these
blows is encouraging. We hear nothing
now of he advantages of giving the Slate
to Lincoln by running a straight out Douglas
Ticket. . The iPresi is suspiciously mute
Forney, it is true, manages to keep his
courage up,' but then Forney has a motive
for helping Lincoln,, which some ol -the
straight-outs hare not; . '

RAYMOND'S FAMILY
SEWI NG MACHINE!
' PATENTED MARCH 9, 1858.
PRICE 810 EACH.
lf ESSR3. ZUPP1NGER &;ROBBINS, of
Bloomsburg, having purchased the ex
clusive right of the above valuable Impro
ved Cheap Patent Sewing 'Machine, for
the County of Columbia, 'will be happy jo
supply their friends with the article for the
accommodationof themselves and families.
The following-are some of the superior
advantages ibis implement possesses, viz:
1. It sews from 400 to 600 tight stitches
per minute.
2. Double thread Machines ate from the
more complicated character, of their mech
anism invariably managed and threaded
with more or le.-s difficulty J - not so : with
RAYMOND'S, a child can manage it in two
hours, and it is threaded easier thaa a corn
rnon needle. , . f . ,
3. One of the most valuable features of
this , Machine, is the smalluess and . the
compactness of its mechanism.."','- ;
4. It can be attached to a board, table or
standj in operating order, and removed in
less than half " a minute. , 1 , '. ,
5; It greatly economizes the thread, and
yet produces a seam, sufficiently strong for
any work for which it is intended, a qual
ification not known to all kintfs of Sewing
Machines. "
6. No human hand is capable of produ
cing a seam so regular ami I . systematic.
1'he team is so strong if well done, that the
stronger material will tear before the
seam will give way.
7. Among the array of Pa'ent ' Sewing
Machines, there are none so cheap and
durable as Raymond's Patent, but no Ma
chine is adapted to all kinds of work as
expe'ience has proven. There are perhaps
none so realy useful, doing such a variety
of wore for ihe immediate use of the fam
ily circle, and at such a moderate price as
RAYMOND'S PATENT.
8. The operator can shape his seam just
as he pleases, waves, leaves and flowers,
etc., can be represented or imitated.
9. It is particularly adapteu to all kinds
of stitchirg such as gentlemen's shirts,
bosoms, ristbands, collars, etc., and all
kinds of ladies' sewing, including silks,
lawns, delaines, calicoes, dusters, etc., ex
cepting for men's heavy wear, this Machine
is rather too light ol construction.
10. But we all admit, that the advantage
to health, and principally to the vision or
eyesight, inuoced by the use of Sewing
Machines, surpasses infinitely all oiher ad
vantages. 11. This Machine fastens the seam al
ways itself, but if the operator wishes it
unlastcned or open, there is a way lor it
too, thus you can have it fastened or not,
as you please, which is, sometimes, espe-
I'laiij is I vc ji i ii lie i J a ci j lavwiaisjtrf v u - .
cumsiance. If the seam is left unfastened
- .... . it
yon can oraw u our in tnree seconcs ana
save the thread.
For sale by the undersigned, at their re
spective residences, in Bioomsburg, who
will put the Machine in operation aud give
all necessary instruction.
