The Sunny South "This book is com
posed of a series of letters, witten in an
interesting stvle of a narrative, embodying
the mot romantic features ol social life on
different kinds of plantations. We can bear
testimony, from our own personal observa
tion ol similar scene in the South, to their
truthfulness as here depicted. Thej are
portrayed in a vivid, interestini stle, and
we would like in see the took in the hands
of thousand of deceived people, who have
no personal knowledge either of Southern
ers or Southern life, except what they have
gained from partizan journals, or thoe
who intentionally have written to deceive."
Daily Republican, Buffalo, N. Y.
The Sunny South "This volume is in
the fotm of letters. They give, so far a
we can judge, faithful pictures of Southern
lilp, and are penned without prejudice.
They present scenes quite different from an
' Uncle Tom's Cabin,' the pictures presen
ted here are qui'e graphic, and we think
the portraits painted are in very nearly nat
ural color?' Boston Daily Bee.
The Sunny South We have rarely peep
ed within the covers of a more appetizing
volume. Although not intended as an an
swer to the foul untruths in the Uncle Tom
trash of the last ten years, it nevertheless
does unmercifully hurl back to their source
all lies of such a nature, and we are glad
to bliev j that the book will ba read in
thousands of northern homes. Tbe south
also should 'ak to it benignanily for inde
! pendent of its truthfulness and integrity it
is one of the liveliest and mo.t entertaining
books of the year.'' Times, Greensboro,

pnbli-her, G. G. Evans, Philadelphia, of
Gift Book notoriety, is weekly issuing new
works of interest, and spreading them over
the country, and his sys'.em of transacting
business may be. looked upon as an institu

by any in the country. We commend this
book to all." Daily News.
The Sunny South "This is a captivating
volume, strongly illustrative of Southern
life. The heart of the authoress is with
her theme, and the carries the interes' ol
the reader along with her, as she, in her
&mnins ofT-lmnd style,delineates the pecu
livtities ol a Southern home." Press.
The Sunny South '-Whatever bears the
name of Professor Ingraham is sure to in
volve the elements of striking effect and a
wide popular currency . and this is just the
cae with "The Sunnv South, or the South

press ot G G. Evans, under the editorship

RAYMOND'S FAMILY
S EWIN G MACH I N E !
PATENTED MARCH 9, 1858. .
PRICE fclO EACH.
Til F.SSRS. ZUPP1NGER & ROBBlNS, of
r Bloomsburg, having purchased the ex
clusive risht of ihe above valuable Impro
ved Cheap Patent Sewing Machine, for
the County of Columbia, will be Imppy to
supply their friends with the article for the
accommrdationof themselves and families.
The following are some of the superior
advantages ttis implement possesses, viz:
1. It sews from 400 to 600 tight stitches
per minute.
2. Double thread Machines are from the
more complicated character of their mech
anism invariably managed and threaded
w'nh more or less difficulty ; not so with
RAYMOND'S, a child can manage it ir. two
hours, and it is threaded easier lhaa a com
mon needle.
3. One of the most valuable features of
this Machine, is the smallness and the
compactness of its mechanism.
4. It can be attached to a board, table or
stand, in operalin order, and removed iu
less than half a minute.
5. It greatly economizes the thread, and
yet produces a seam, sufficiently strong for
any work lor which it is intended, a qual
ification not known to all kinds of Sewing
Machines.
6. No human hand Is capable of produ
cing a seam so regular and systematic
The seam is 6o strong if well done, ihat the
st.ongest material will tear before the
seam will jjive way.
It Among ihe array of Pa'ent Sewing
Machines, there are none so cheap ami
durable as Raymond's Patent, but no Ma
chine is adapted to all kinds ol work as
expedience has proven. There are pwhaps
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 a
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 adapter to all kinds
of stitching such as gentlemen's shirts,
bosoms, risibandB, collars, etc., and all
kinds of ladies' sewing, including silks,
lawns, delaines, calicoes, dusters, etc., ex
cepting for men'sheavy wear, this Machine
is rather too light ol conMructioo.
10. But we all admit, that the advantage
lo health, aud principally to the vision or
eyesight, induced by ll.e .use of Sewing
Machines, surpasses infinitely all oihei ad
vantages. ;i. This Machine fastens the seam al
ways itself, but if the operator wishes it
unlastened or open, there is a way lor it
too, thus you can have it fastened or not,
as you please, which is, sometimes, espe
cially for beginners, a very favorable cir
cumstance. If the seam is lelt unfastened,
you can draw it out iu three seconds and
save the thread.
For sale by the nndersigned, at their re
spective residences, in Bloomsburg, who
will put the Machine in operation and give
all necessary instruction.
