PITTSBURGH, OCTOBER 11,1862
The War.
There are many speculations about army
movements near at hand. Man has a won
derful propensity to vaticination. We
wish we had a little more pre-discernment,
that we might better accommodate public
taste. In war,. however, concealment is
one of the essential ingredients of success;
and for this reason, not only should Cabi.
nets and Generals be reticent, but prophets
also should suppress the utterances of their
wisdom.
About the utmost that we can now say
with certainty is, that great preparations
are being made. We have an army on the
upper Potomac, threatening Winchester,
an army at Washington, which is stretch
ing out toward Gordonsville, and an army
gathering about Fortress Monroe, which,
with the naval force there, looks frowningly
upon Richmond. Another week or two of
time may enable us to say upon which
place the first serious attack is directed.
The report-of the evacuation of Cumber
land Gap, •by our troops, proves to have
been correct. It is greatly to be regretted
that the place could not have been held.
The enemy is retiring before our forces
in Kentucky. We would hope that our
possession of the country we may occupy,
henceforth, dill be made sure. The rapid
movements and far advances of last Spring
were well conceived and well executed;
and they would have been wise, if we had
brought out a sufficient force to occupy,
hold firmly, and pacify the country in our
rear; but, with our defective armies, they
have proved to be miscalculations. We
lost men, money, time, friends, and pres
tige, thereby. We calculated too much
,upon the feebleness of our foe, and too
much upon a strong Union feeling in Ken
tucky and Tennessee. Wisdom is to be
learned by experience.
Gen. Grant holds West Tennessee, and
has gained a brilliant victory at Corinth.
In Missouri we are not likely to have very
much trouble. Mobile is threatened by
our fleet. We have a large naval force in
the Gulf, and Mobile is the only important
seaport there which is possessed by the
enemy.
Gen. Mitchell and Admiral Dupont are
concentrating forces at Port Royal, having
one eye on Savannah and the other on
Charleston. In each of these ports the
enemy is preparing iron-clad vessels, and
their speedy capture is vastly important.
Some more of our own iron clads are
needed to do the work with ease.
NEW-ORLEANS has been exceedingly
healthy during the Summer. There has
been no yellow fever, and no malignant
epidemic of any kind. This is a wonder
to the people, there being, by the presence
of a Northern army, so many unacclimated
persons in the city. The oath of allegiance
has been taken very extensively, to save
confiscation ; that law going into operation
ou the 28d ult. On that day the adminis
tration of civil law took the place of the
military. Judges opened their courts in
the various districts, and the sheriff and
his deputies commenced operations. The
working of the system will be looked to
with much interest. Gen. Batler, how
ever, is still commander, with the war
power
THE STRENGTH OF THE &M6.—The
South has now called to the battle field,
nearly the utmost of her strength. The
last Winter's conscription embraced all the
able bodied men between the ages of 18
and 35. This, with the former levies,
gave an army of about 700,000. This
swelled their armies sufficiently to beat us
back in Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky,
and Arkansas; to stop U 3 in Mississippi,
to diminish our hold in South Carolina
and Louisiana, and to give us some trouble
in Missouri. With our new recruits ar
riving, the tables are turned. The ene
my's progress is not only checked, but his
principal armies are on the retreat. And
his losses are immense. The army of Gen.
Lee, in all the series of battles before
Richmond, lost about 30,000 men ; and he
his lo.it about 60,000 since he left Rich
; mond. This number embraces his losses
on the Rapidan, Rappahannock, about Ma
nasses, and in Maryland. His losses in
the West have not been so great, but there
are hard battles yet to be fought.
Tb make up these losses, and to strength
en the armies against our increase, the
Confederates have ordered a new conscrip
tion. This embraCes all men fit for war,
between the ages of 35 and 45. Accord
ing to the late census „tables there are
about 300,000 in the Southern States em•
braced in this period of life. But of men
between 35 and 45, only about one half are
fit for military duty. This would increase
their armies 150,000 men; a number which
ill. not greatly, if at all, exceed their
oases since the opening of the Spring
campaign.
Ls we see that exhaustion rapidly ap-
Les, in the South. The levy now
id will not make their army equal, by
amount, to ours, which is now get
lady, and they have no new class of
ition on which to draw. After the
g Winter, then, their forces must
ly dee line. Can they not see this ?
'e not hope that wisdom will soon re
,o the people, and that they will cease
their rebellion. The only condition
ice and safety, which is required of
,asses, is, that they cease to do evil."
(e strength of the South, as all know,
its greatly in slaves; men who toil at
in needful work, while the freemen
t to battle. Soon, if the war shall
sue, our enemy will be weakened at
point. Actual freedom may not go
'r than our armies advance; but the
~ hearing of the proclamation, as-thty
will very speedily, will manage to escape
in vast numbers, or will rise in rebellion
against their masters, as their masters have
against the Government.
If then the war shall be pressed vigor
ously, its termination will be speedy.
Polities and the War.
We have so little love for party politics,
or rather we have such an aversion to the
measures resorted to by partisans to carry
their ends, that we are liable to be too in
credulous to every thins that is affirmed,
on either side, in a political contest. We
can give full credit to scarcely any thing
that is said or written, which has any
bearing OD candidates or public measures,
during a canvass. Political parties have,
in some aspects, a beneficial influence on
Government. An eagle-eyed opposition
makes an Administration careful, cautious,
and attentive to public interests. But too
often the ins and the outs are like Esop's
flies; and it is a less evil to leave those
already gorged, in quiet possession, than to
let them be supplanted by a hungry swarm.
Just at the present' time, partizanship is
peculiarly injurious. Union is indispens
able to safety, and politics seem to be taking
such a turn that union may be rendered
impracticable. Two classes of men seek to
possess the Government. Both of these
cry out perpetually against the course of
public affairs. The President does not
please either. He will not be controlled by
by either. They divide on the members of
the Cabinet. They praise, and blame, and
quarrel about the Generals he entrusts.
They are denunciatory in regard to meas
ures adopted, or proposed, for the carrying
on of the war. They are at daggers' points
respecting the end to be attained by the
war. Their contests and vituperations
weaken alike the bands of the Government,
and 'the hearts and hopes of the people.
What then is to be done ? Save the
Union, all say. But bow ? By a proper
use of power, all say again. But still, be
tween the ultras there is an immense dif
ference. A few leaders on one side say
that it is impossible to save the Union
without conserving slavery. These oppose
every measure which tends to destroy the
institution. Other leaders, or would-be
leaders, say that while slavery exists there
can be no Union—that is, no union se
curing harmonious action and peace. These
make measures to banish slavery, a first
essential. Tho one class cannot or will not
strive to save the Union unless they can
also save slavery. The other would see the
Union dissolved, rather than that slavery
should maintain its status. Neither can
hence yield a hearty support to the Admin
istration. Each would rather thwart than
help forward. an effective plan to subdue
the foe, if thereby their own peculiar aim
would be subverted. The one thinks that
embarrassments will drive the country to a
total abolition of slavery, and to the em
ploying of the slaves in fighting for their
own freedom ; the other imagines that de
lays and ill success will make the people
willing to accept of peace on any terms.
And each side wants political power, so as
to direct measures to the accomplishing of
its own aims
Within about a month, a new Congress
is to be elected. This Congress will not
come into power until the fourth of March
neat; and may not meet, unless called by
the President, until the following Decem
ber. Before that time we trust that the
rebellion will be suppressed. It ought to
be, and would be suppressed ere then, if
we were all of one mind, and all in earnest.
The Fall elections, however, are to have
a vast influence. Not only is the character
of the next Congress to be determined, but
State officers and Legislatures are to be
chosen. In these elections, the desire of
the country as to the policy of the war will
be indicated. Will the policy of the Ad
ministration be sustained? If so, neither
of the factiOns to which we have alluded,
will be placed in the position of influence.
The President is with neither. He wishes
to preserve the Constitution and restore the
Union. He wars not for slavery, nor
against it. If it is in the way, let it perish.
If it is not in the way, do not turn aside to
assail it. There are but very few sane men,
in the loyal States, who would leave their
homes for three years, or even for nine',,
months, and endure hardships, and risk
life in the camp and the battle-field, for
the sake of either slavery or abolition. It
is mainly stay-at-home folks, who talk of
such devotion. The vast body of the peo
ple, and especially our soldiers, do and en
dure for their country, not for the slave.
But violent partisans always lead in elec
tions. They make a great commotion, and
they tell the people that a man can do
nothing by himself; that he must be on
the one side or the other, to have any in
fluence. Sometimes this is so, but not
always. Moderate men, serious, thinking
men, sometimes do control elections ;
they always should control them, and gen
erally might do so. And now, if ever,
they should exhibit their firmness of ow
pose, their true loyalty, and the power of
numbers. Repel fanatics. Shun traitors.
And trust no man who is but lukewarm in
his country's cause.
As we understand the Administration,
it is determined to carry on the war, under
the Constitution, and with the utmost vigor
practicable. It will make no compromise
with rebels in arms. Every seceded State
must submit to Federal authority There
will be no recognition of the rebellion, and
no separation of the Union, by the consent
of the President. Cannot the people and
their Government cooperate on this princi
ple? Let us have a country; and to this
end let politics be submissive, and let the
war be waged with vigor•

Stamp Duties.
Mr. Hunt, of this city, has issued, on a card
very convenient for office use, a schedule of U.
S. Stamp Duties. Price 10 cents.
Ferocity of the Rebels.
A passenger from Richmond, at Fortress Mon
roe, reports that the Confederate Congress have
resolved in all future actions to hoist the black
flag and exterminate the Union troops without
granting quarters. The measure was proposed,
debated, and referred to a committee. We have
not yet seen any statement of the final action.
The House will likely hesitate before resolving
upon a measure so desperate, so savage, and so
destructive to themselves if retorted.
In a similar strain the Richmond Whig, speak
ing of President Lincoln's proclamation, says:
"It ordains servile insurrection in the Confede
rate States, and it is not misunderstood in the
South or North. It is a dash of the pen to de
stroy four thousand millions of our property, and
is as much as a bid for the slaves to rise in in
surrection, with assurance of aid from the whole
military and naval power of the United States."
It speaks of the cruelty of the Administration,
and says
" Butler is a Saint compared with his muter.
Our military operations are henceforth to assume
a very'grave character. The friends of the new
programme will necessarily destroy all terms be
tween.•us. ^ The next campaign will be a tremen
dous-one,- both for the magnitude and character
of the hostilities. Let our authorities prepare
the whole strength of our people for the tremen
dous Shock. The enemy is making great , prepa
rations, as well as issuing fiendish proclamations.
•We must respond with equal energy ; if we do
not, we shall be lost; but we will do it."
This shows that the Proclamation is not re
garded by the South as a mere brutum fulmen.
And in this they are good judges. They expect,
to find it a terrific war measure. And it will he
so if our Government is faithful, and is sus•
tained by the people. The measure, if enforced
with the vigor which is practicable, and which
is clue to the country's interest, will make the
war, short, and will save to the North myriads of

Address to the President.
The Governors of twelve of the loyal States,
Governal Curtin, of Pennsylvania;
Governor Sprague, of Rhode Island;
Governor Andrews, of Massachusetts;
Governor Tod, of Ohio;
Governor Kirkwood, of lowa.
Governor Bradford, of Maryland;
Governor Washburne of Maine;
Governor Terry, of dew Hampshire;
Governor Olden, of New Jersey;
Governor Pierpont, of Virginia ;
Governor Solomon, of Wisconsin;
Governor Yates, of Illinois;
met at Altoona, Pa., on the 22d of September, for
conference on the state of the country.
Indiana, Kentucky, Missouri, and Vermont,
were represented.by proxy.
Governor Ramsay regretted his inability to be
present, on account of the Indian war on his
border.
The meeting was, we have reason to believe,
harmonious. After comparing views on sundry
matters of deep national importance, they adopt
ed an address to the President, and adjourned to
Washington City. There they paid their re
spects personally to the Preaident.
We are not sure that the. Governors did right
in holding this meeting. The President has his
constitutional advisers, in his Cabinet; and
either directly, or through that Cabinet, all in
formation and counsel may be made to reach him.
And- if more is needed, Congress can be assem
bled, at any time, in silty days. While we do
not disapprove of any thing the Governors did in
their joint counsel, we still regret that they had
their meeting. We love a government of law,
and from established legal modes we would. not
depart, unless under imperious necessity.
The following is the written result of their de
liberations :
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2, 1862.
ADDRESS to the people of the United States,
adopted at a meeting of Governors of the loyal
States, held to„take measures for the more ac
tive support of the Government, at Altoona,
Pa., on the twenty-second day of September,
eighteen hundred and sixty-two.
After nearly one year and a half spent in con
test with all armed and gigantic rebellion against
the National Government of the United States,
the duty and purpose of the loyal States and
people continue and must always remain as they
were at its origin, namely : to restore and, per
petuate the authority of the Government and the
life of the Nation. No matter what consequences
are involved in our fidelity, nevertheless, this
work of restoring the republic, preserving the
institutions and justifying the hopes and terms
of our fathers, shall not fail to be performed, and
we pledge, without hesitation, to the President
of the United States, the most loyal and cordial
support hereafter, as heretofore, in the exercise
of the functions of his great office. We recog
nise in him the Chief Executive Magistrate of
the nation, the Commander-in-Chief of the army
and navy of the United States, their responsible
and constitutional head, whose rightful authority
and power, as well as the Constitutional powers
of Congress, must be vigorously and religiously
guarded and preserved as the condition on which
all our form of Government, and the Constitu
tional rights and liberties of the people them
selves, can be saved from the wreck of anarchy,
or from the rule of despotism, in submission to
the laws which may have been, or which may
be duly , enacted, and to the lawful order of the
President cooperating always in our own spheres
in the National Government. We mean to con
tinue in the most vigorous exercise of all our
lawful and proper powers contending against
treason and rebellion, or the public enemies, and
whether in public life or in , private station, sup
porting the arms of the Union until its cause
shall conquer; until final victory shall perch
upon the standard, or the rebel foe shall make a
dutiful, rightful and unconditional submission.
We are impressed with the conviction that an
army of reserves ought to be constantly kept on
foot, to be raised, armed, equipped and trained
at home and ready for any emergencies. - We
respectfully ask the President to call for such a
force of volunteers for one year's service, of not
less than one hundred thousand in the aggregate,
the quota of each State to be raised after it shall
have filled its quota of the requisitions already
made both for volunteers and for militia. We
believe that this would be a measure of military
prudence, while it would greatly promote the
military education of the people. We hail with
gratitude and encourage the hope that the Proc
lamation of the President issued on the 22d inst.,
declaring emancipated from their bondage all
persons held to service or labor as slaves in the
rebel States, whose rebellion shall last till the
Ist day of January next. The right of any per
sons to retain authority to compel any portion of
the subjects of the National Government to rebel
against it, or to maintain its enemies, implies all
those who are allowed the possession of such au
thority. The right to rebel themselves, and
therefore the right to establish martial law or
military government in a State or Territory, in
rebellion, implies the right and duty of the Gov
ernment to liberate the minds of all men living
therein by appropriate proclamations and assur
ances of protection. In order that all who are
capable intellectually and morally, of loyalty
and obedience may not be forced into treason as
the unwilling tools of rebellious . traitors, to have
continued indefinitely the most efficient cause to
support a state of the rebellion, would have been,
in our judgment, unjust to the loyal people,
whose treasure and lives have been made a wil
ling sacrifice on the altar of patriotism, would
have discriminated against the wife, who is com
pelled to surrender her husband; against the
parent who is to surrender his child to the hard
ships of the camp. If rebel masters were per
mitted to retain their slaves, it would have been
a final decision alike against huthanity and jus
tice, the rights and dignity of the Government,
and against sound and wise national policy.
The decision of the President to strike at the
rbbf td the Vettellicin will lend new vfgbr to. the
efforts and new life and hopes to the hearts of the I
people.
Cordially tendering to the President our re
spectful assurances of personal and official confi
dence, we trust and believe that the policy now
inaugurated will be crowned with success, and
will give speedy and triumphant victories over
our enemies, and secure to this nation and this
people the blessing and favor of Almighty God.
We believe that the blood of the heroes who
have already fallen, and those who may yet give
their lives to their country, will not have been
shed in vain. The splendid valor of our soldiers,
their patient endurance, their manly patriotism,
and their devotion to duty, demand from us, and
from all their countrymen, the homage of the
sincerest gratitude; the pledge of our constant
reinforcement and support. A just regard for
these brave men whom we have contributed to
place in the field, and for the importance of . the
duties which may lawfully pertain to us hereaf
ter, has called us into friendly conference. And
now, presenting to our National Magistrate this
conclusion of our deliberations, we devote our
selves to our country's service; and we will sur
round our President in our constant support,
trusting that the fidelity and zeal of the loyal
States and people will always assure him that he
will be constantly maintained in pursuing with
rigor this war for the preservation of the na
tional life and the hopes of humanity.

The tate Battle at Corinth.
CAIRO, October 7.—As yet we can only state
the general results Of the fighting at Corinth.
Skirmishing commenced on Tuesday last, and
there has been more or less fighting every day
since. The rebel loss is about 800 killed and
1,500 to 1,800 wounded. We have 1,500 prison
e-.78 at Corinth, 300 on the Ratchie river, and
l more are constantly coining in. We have taken
t4several thousand stand of arms throwl away by
t the rebels in their flight. They are mostly new
1 English make. Our loss is believed to be 300
killed and 1,000 wounded. Many of the houses
in the town are badly shattered - by shot and
shell. On Sunday General Ord drove the enemy
five miles, over hills and through woods and val
leys, the rebels taking advantage of every wood
for their infantry and every hill for their artil
lery. The fight lasted seven hours. The rebel
General Rogers was killed. General Oglesby has
died of his wounds. Generals Ord and Peach
are slightly wounded.
Prisoners taken say that their effective force
in that vicinity was 65,000. This is probably an
over-estimate, but it is *certain that they have
outnumbered us two to one.
Thanks to the finny of the Potomac.
WASHINGTON, Sept.'3o.—TO Major General Mc-
Clellan, commanding the Army of the Potomac:
General, your report of yesterday, giving the re
sults of the battles of South Mountain and An
tietam, has been received and submitted to the
President. These were hard-fought battles, but
well earned and decided victories. The valor
and endurance of your army in the several con
flicts, which terminated in the expulsion of the
enemy from the loyal State of Maryland, are
creditable alike to the troops and to the officers
who commanded them. A grateful country,
while mourning the lamented dead, will not be
unmindful of the honors due the living,

Yellow Fever at Wilmington,. N. C.
The yellow fever is assuming fearful propor
tions in Wilmington, N. C., both in its rapid
spread and malignity, and the inhabitants of that
city are in a most helpless condition, arising
from their utter ignorance of the disease, and the
proper way of nursing the stricken patient.
Letters from the plague-stricken city appeal in
strong terms for aid, and that can be ren
derqd effectually only by , those acclimated, and
who can venture there without danger.

CAPE RACE, October 4.—The steamer Tura,
from Liverpool on the 25th, via Londonderry on
the 26th ult., was boarded at nine o'clock this
morning, by the news yacht of the Associated
Press.
The news of Gen. McClellan's victory over
Gen. Lee was received with much satisfaction by
the Federal party in Liverpool, and gave an im
petus to the cotton market, which was checked
by large arrivals of Burets.
The London Times, of the 28th ult., in an edi
torial says: After the recent events, it is not
impossible that we may yet see Garibaldi crossing
the Atlantic in the assumed character of an
American citizen, and fighting for the subjuga
tion of a nation struggling to be free.
The Morning , Post remarks that to be constant
to his principles, Garibaldi should go to the oth
er side, where 9,000,000 are lighting for the right
of governing themselves.
The London Times says that Gen. Pope, by his
own reports, has succeeded in proving that if
there was one man more than another unfit to
have the command in the Federal army, it is a
querulous General, who puts the blame of every
failure upon others.
The Times has an editorial highly eulogistic of
the Canadas for their subscription for the relief
of the distressed operatives of. Lancashire. It
regards the subscription as It proof that whatever
difficulties may now , and then arise, in, adjUsting
the relative obligations of Great Britain and her
colonies, their devotion to the crown is real and
active at home. •
At a meeting of a few representatives from
the London firms connected with the Manchester
trade, to examine the proposed substitute for
cotton, they signed a memorandum in favor of
its length, strength and beauty, :which in their
opinion rendered it worthy of their most carefill
consideration. Whether the manufacture of it
can be economically and successfully applied,
they leave to others to determine.
Roussel, the late member of Parliament, was
placed on his trial in London, on the 24th, for
forging deeds and the will of his late father,
thereby possessing himself of immense wealth.
He pleaded guilty, in a calm, egotistical and ap
parently penitent speech. He was sentenced to
transportation for life.
The Journal Decoun shows that the depression
in the cotton trade had exercised a very bene
ficial influence on the French woolen maunfac
tories.
A large Garibaldi meeting was held at the
Stockholm Exchange, at which an address was
enthusiastically adopted expressing sympathy for
Garibaldi, and urging the speedy evaouation of
Rome by the French.
Garibaldi, under date of September 14th,
writes:
"I am a prisoner and dangerously wounded':
It is consequently impCssible for me to dispose of
myself..
" However, as soon as I am restored to liberty,
and my wounds'are healed, I-shall take the first
favorable opportunity to satisfy my desire to
serve the great American Republic, of which I
am a citizen, and which is now fighting; for uni
versal liberty."

DlED—Near the battle field, in Maryland, on '
Saturday, September. 20th, Mr. JAMES D. RID
DLE, aged about 25 years.
Mr. Riddle was the son of John B. Riddle,
Esq., a Ruling Elder in the church of Hollidays
burg, Pa. He belonged to the volunteer corpS,
Gen. Mansfield's division of the army, and fell
in the battle of lintietum,. September 17th, mor
tally wounded. Re •was a young man of much
promise. We have not heard whether in the
absence of his pious friends he was cheered by
the presence of a_chaplairt. Doubtless the three
days which he survived, after the fatal wound,
were employed in Wilting his work. It ie a
consolation to know that a loved one has
. had
even this brief space to commend his spirit., into
the hands of Jesus.
DIED—On Saturday morning, September 27th,
after a lingering illness, Mrs. MARY LONG,
wife of Arthur Long, Esq.
The deceased was a sufferer for months, and
from a form of disease that based the best med
ical skill. Her disease was complicated ; Orig
inating perhaps in the liver, but affecting various
other abdominal organs, and reaching in, its
final issue a dropsical character, which soon ran
its course, and released its subject from sorrow
and.suffering here, to enter upon that rest which
remaineth for the people of God in heaven,
Mrs. Long was in the sixtieth year of her age,
and had been for more than forty years an hum
ble, meek, and quiet member of Bethel church:
She was the mother of, eight• children, seven' of
whom survive her. And in all the relations of
life, as a wife, a mother, a neighbor, and
a member of the church, it could with the
strictest truth. be said, that kindness, gem.
tleness, 'meekness, and peacefulness, were
visible characteristics. Those who knew her
best, only knew her to love and respect her. So
long as able, she loved to attend the house of
God, and seemed to enjoy his ordinances with a
sweet and holy relish. And during her last days,
that Saviour in whom she had long trusted, did
not forsake her. She was calm and resigned—
enabled to give up husband, and children, and
friends without a murmur, though in her heart
she felt all that tender affection which belongs
to the true•hearted wife and loving mother. She
has gone from the family-cirele and her place in
the church. We Anil meet her no more in this
'Aide of t&re, bit a hitie -40:demee that
warrants the belief that she is now at rest with
the saiuts.in glory.
Then, mourning husband and sorrowing chil
dren, God says to you, look up and see her once
so dear to you all, once your counsellor and com
forter, now with Jesus, purified and in heavenly
attire. She has fought her last fight with sin
and Satan, has gained the victory, and is now
crowned with glory. And from on high she
beckons you all to follow on and follow upward,
till Jesus shall bid you lay nside the earthly
house of your tabernacle for one not made with
hands, eternal in the heavens.
" Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord
from henceforth : yea, saith the Spirit, that
they may rest from their labors ; and their works
do follow them." G. M.

Mr. EOWt invites attention to the important improve
mente which be has recently made in his Sewing Machines,
which enables them to do a larger range of work with less
machinery, less noise, less tronble, and more perfectly than
auy llnchino now before the public. The missing of stitches
and breaking of needles, so common and annoying in other
Machines, is entirely done away with in the Ineaocatt
nmr. No trouble in making any garment worn by male or
female, hew ver delicate or heavy. with silk, cotton, or linen
threads on the same Machine. We use a straight needle, and
the stitch Is elastic and alike on both sides. For Rhin
Makers, Dress Makers, Tailors, Shoe Binders, Gaiter Fitter'',
as well as for every variety of Family Sewing, the Improved
Howe Machine now stands far in advance of the Machines of
the day, and they will be sold at a much lees price than any
other Machine capable of doing the same tang • of work in
as good a manner. No person should think of purchashig
a Sewing Machine without first seeing this—the latest and
greatest triumph of the original inventor of the Sewing
Machine.
Persons at a distance can order a Machine with the Manu
facturer's guarantee that it wall reach them safely, and prove
every way satisfactory.

1100FLANO'S.C.ERNIAN BITTERS.
From J. 117ewtonEroton, D.D., Editor of the Encyclopedia
of Religious Knowledge.
Although not disposed to favor or recommend Patent
Medicines in'general, through distrust of their, ingredients,
and effects; I yet know of no sufflcientreason why a man may
not testify to the benefit he - believes himself to have - received
from any simple prepaistion, in the hope that he may thus
contribute io the beneAt of others.
I do this the more readily in regard to Hoofland's Herman..
Bitters„prepared by Or. C. M. Jackson, orthls city, because
I. was prejndiced tigalnst them for many years, under the
impression that they were 'chiefly an alcoholic mixture..
am indebted to my friend. Robert Shoemaker, Esq., for the
removal of this prejudice by proper teats, arid-tor encourage
ment to try them, when suffering from great and long con
tinued debility, • The use of three bottles of these Bitters, at
the beginning of the present year, was followed by evident
relief, and restoration ton degree of bodily and mental vigor
which T had not felt for six months before, and had almost
despaired of regaluing. I therefote thank God and my
friend for directing me tothe use of them.
