TheiSetving Machine.
Among the grAtfest reyolatrom'of
modern t im es iii:us; be i'anked that
which has lien effected in ?domestic:W-
A
faiq by the ,Sewio %Machine. If4be
steam engitre nearly' doubled the sum of
human life, and multiplied a thousand
fold the power of mankind, so, also, has
this great labor-saving invention. How
clearly was its efficiency manifested dur
ing the gigantic war just ended I Bow
could the millions, of men wire were sent
into the field ever have been-promptly
supplied with outfits without the tireless
lightning-like fingers of this little instru
ment ?
Few who are not traveling etteesyre
ly through the country are mare how
universally this machine has taken the
place of the old wearisome needle. _ Per
haps an idea of the 'extent of this-sub
stitution cannot be better. Obtained than
by' a glance at the magnitude of some of
the manufactories. Of the number of
the rival establishment; let us take one
of the leading oneefor an example. At
' the Grover & Baker factory, in Boston,
the machinery for turning out the iestrn
ments, 'stands, and cabinets requires
nearly 'five hundred men to -work , it.
The Company conduct twenty-four sales
establishthents, in* their own name, in
different parts of the United States, and
in London and Liverpool; England, and
in Melbourne, Australia. They have,
moreover, agenies"eitablished in all
the principal cities a' the Old World,
and in almost every village of the NeW
World.
The principal depot for foreign export
is in New Ytirk,''at 'No. 495 Broadway.
This establishment occupies a building
three stories in front on Broadwey, and
extending back 200 feet to Mercer
street: Unique in design and magnifi
cently fitted up, it' ranks among the first
commercial palaces in the metropelis.
From this place nedOlifnee are constant
ly being Bent out to all parts of the, 1 ,
world. They go mating' all rankti---not
only the homble, but thevery proudest.
They have been furnished, lay command,
to the Empress of France ; the Empress
of Russia ; the Empress of Brazil ; the
Queen of Spain ; and the Queen of. Ba
feria.
Now, remembering that, although the
Grover & Baker Company is the lead
log one, there are a dozen others ap
proximating more or less nearly to it in
extent of operations, and, if we combine
them' all ie our calculations, we may ob
tain some idea of the astonishing magni
tude Of the SeWing Machine business.
But-a still more importtint aspect , of
the case is the beneficent Mission it ie
performing in the 'myriad homes of our
own and other lands. Lightning the,
cares atilt+ household, taking upon itself
the burden of the most exhaustive drnag %
ery, it cornea like a very angel of mercy '
into the domestic circle, 'shedding sun

"We are mush disappointed," writes

QUITE CONCLUSITE.--A story is Old. of
a clergyman who lived in Lowell, who
was once ; charged with having violently
dragged his wife from a revival meeting,
and. compelled her to ~go home with
him. The clergyman let- the story rem
ahead till he had a fair opportunity to
giye it a broadside. Upon being charg
ed with the offence, he replied as fol
lows : "In the first place, I never at
tempted *to_ influence my wife in her
views, nor ber,choice.of a meeting. Sec
ondly, my wife has not attended any of
the revival meetings. In the third
place, I have-not attended any of• the
meetings, for any purpose whatever.
To conclude, neither my , wife nor myself
have any inclination.-to gp -to. these
meetings. Finally, I never-had a wife."
Cr The Louisville Journal having
published a paragraph stating that
"Mr. and Mrs. Brewer, of Kentucky,
have twenty-two children," a correspon
dent writes :-the remembrance of the
above paragraph in your paper some
time ago induces me to tell you of an
old mail whom we see coming to Knox
ville about once a week. We call him
Grandpa Davis. He is upward of nine
ty years old., His wife has - given birth
to tweniy-nine children ; twenty-eight of
whom are living. They furnished the
Union army in the late war with twen
ty-five recruits. Is there another man
who deserves the appellation of " loyal°
,to a greater extent than Grandia Davis?
Does he not deserve a 'pension at the
hands of a government to which he has
contribtited so largely to save.

only walk a little with my biisban•n..
Atter 1 had been here a short lime the
ter breeze made me feel much betki
time and then I had again feu call a vby.,.. a.
for aid. We bad four of the
of New York on the diseases of the I ingi, tiL :
doCtors of all kinds, but of no avail. Tv,.
said I 'was past cure, and that my lons w eo
too far gone for any one to. cure me. Cu;
this time I was on my feet about the h k .u * ,
not able to do much of anything. In Nure:n
be/ last I grew worsa, and the commmptm,
diarrhea set in and lasted about eight weeliE.
We had tried all and everything that I mil!
grasp at like a dying person fit my disease_
consumptionand liver complaint—but of it
avail.
In January, 1863, I was brought dm
again on my bed, and was nut expected h
live the night out. My husband stayed at thy
sale, and other friende, and they all gave me
up to die. At this time every ono why no
me did not think I would ever leave any bed
a living woman. The first night I was et.
tacked, with spasms, and was deranged meet
of the time. A friend, Mrs. Harris, eeoc u
see me the last of the week, and brought the
Sunday Mercury. In it was an account uf
great curt performed by Dr. Schenck. Sa
read it to me, and
. .it was so much like my
disease that I asked my husband to ga7 sad
owe him , for me. At this time I had given up
all hopes of ever getting well again, ai.d made
my peace writh_God, to be ready wheneverie
called for me.
On the 27th °C./armory, ism, my husband
called on I. Schenck, 32 Bond street, Nov
York, and stated to him my case, with a to
quest for him to call and see me, which ho
did, and examined me with the respirometer.
When be - was about to go I asked him if he
could cure me? His reply was : 1 .1 C 31139:
tell, both lunge are diseased, and the bronchi
al tubes are affected onboth sides." And Set
he seemed to think there were lungs enough
left to effect a cure if the diarrhea could be
atopped. He said in order to do this, lie would
have to give me Mandrake Pills in 01151
doses at first, to carry off the morbid matter,
and then, with astringents, hehoped to Medi
it, which he did, but the constant coughing,
night sweats, and diarrhea had prostrated se
so that he was afraid my vital powers were
too much prostrated ever to rally, snit yet 10
seemed to think if I could live to get en ough
Fulmonie Syrup through my system to [SUR
expectoration these were lungs enough left
for me to recover. He wished me to try the
Pulmonic Syrup and Seaweed Tonic at once,
saying it w6uld do me no harm, if it did Inc
no good: The first week it seemed to give
me strength, so that en Sunday after I sat op
in bed and ate hearty for a sick woman; but
the next week I lost all hope and wished my
husband net to give me any more medicine.
but the doctor had warned him of this, and
when the medicine was clearing out the sys
tem it made them feel somewhat restless, an 4
to persevere • and he insisted on my takin4
it and now I feel the benefit of it. For after
ei,ght days - I beang to gain my strength, and,
with the exception of a cold that put me bank
some, I have been gaining strength of body,
my cough is going away, and all my pains an
gone; no soreness of the bedy, my bowels are
regular, and ray breath is sweet, and I than":
God that I am now going about, and sew and
read as well as ever I could. I have
each.
sixteen bottles of the medicine, eight of each.
I now have a good appetite and rest hell
at
night ; my eough does not trouble me in ger ,
ing up or lying down. I would here say 1,
the afflicted with consumption or liver com
plaint, that Dr. Schenck is no humbug lo!'
can rely on what he says. Delay not; it
dangerous to trifle with these discuses.
you would be cured, go at once ; and an} one
