THE SILENT SEWING MACHINE!
AB A FAMILY ASSISTANT,
The Willcox & lilbbs Sewing Machine!
Will be found to excel all others. The ease with which it runs, its ready adaptation to all
kinds of work without delay or hesitation, its quiet fidelity, its
Superior Strength and Durability of Work,
are points that astonish and delight all who make its acquaintance. Ladies who are unfa
miliar w ith this Machine, do not yet know the full Messing and comfort of a Sewing Ma
chine in the family, though they mav possess many others and think they are satisfied.
In proof of this assertion is the significant fact.
That its strongest advocates and most enthusiastic admirers arc always found among
those uho have used and arc most familiar with other trailing machines.
From the thousands of testimonials from all parts of the country, we select the following
from the city of Augusta :
AUGUSTA, March, 1870.
Having used the Willcox A Gibbs Sowing Machine in our respective families upon
all the various kinds of work required, some of us from one to six years, others for
u shorter time, some of us also being familiar with the use of other leading machines,
we cheerfully recommend it as a most excellent family machine. It runs easily ana

THE ICE FRESHET—HOW TO
AVOID A REPETITION.
Now that the water in our river has
ubsided, we can take a calm survey of
be situation which at one time seemed to
hreaten the destruction of the citiee at the
lead of tide water. It ta> not the great
..mount of rain alone which fell, that
aused the sudden and disastrous rise, as
n the interior a short distance, the stortn
vas not at all remarkable. But other
auses, more potent than a casual obaerv
r might notice, conspired to make this a
lisastrous event. Everything at the pres
utiime seems to depend upon the weath
•r for the next thirty days; whether or
ot we have a repetition of the scene of
ast month ; if it be warm, the water will
ut a channel through the immense ice
am, and no evil results will be likely
0 lullow, but on the other hand, should
tiere be another heavy rain it would un
doubtedly raise the water to a greater
might than before, and no one can foresee
he results.
Being one of the number who usually
ook upon the brightest side of everything,
am inclined to think we may realize the
ormer supposition.
Would it not be well to consider some
•f the causes of the sadden rise of water
nd see what re-son we have to expect
mmuuity from another perhaps moteiear
iil calamity ?
It is known to every one conversant
buh the river, that there is a bend in the
iver opposite Hallowell; the piers an the
helsea side serve,to make the bend sti 1
uore marked, consequently the ice mi
rowded hard toward the western shore,
uiy one who will take the trouble to stand
a Steam Mill Point, will get a correct ^
lea of the situation. It is well known
hat the ice remained firm at the corpora
' ion boom opposite Farmingdale, in the
reshet of December. Now it is probnMe
■at had there been no obstructions at
tat point the river would have been
learcd by the freshet of December and
here would not Lave been so much re
islanec to overcome during the last one.
1 is well known that the boom at Brown’s
sland occupies two-thirds of the width of
he river, and I doubt if allliieice between
. and Moosehead Lake could canty it
way. The ice below this boom rea&ly
'arted, and had there been any pressure
•iove.it would undoubtedly have ail passed
•■low Gardiner, thereby saving the rall
<>ad bridge at Augusta and all the losses
aused by the sudden rise resulting from
.ie ice dam I do not wish to be nnder
;ood to say that the piers at Brown's Is
old were the sole cause of the ice dan
t the Hook, ye* I do say without fear rtf
ontradiction, that it was one of theprus*
i{jal ones. Who ever heard of the ice
miming in such a manner in tide water
vhen the river was free from unnatural
ostructions ? When petitions were be
>re the Legislature, asking permission to
lace piers at Brown's Island, this same
alaraity was predicted by the Repre
ntative from Hallowell—Mr. F. J. Day,
think, and who will say we have not
ldirectly been reaping the fruit?
There is a question in the minds of many
. hether the State has control of the navi
able rivers. Congress has been appro
riating money liberally to improve the
avigation of the Kennebec river. Now
» hy does not the same power have con
rol in regard to obstructions that mag be
laced by corporations to the injury of the
cope? It may be argued that we may
•iot see the two freshets again in one win
er. Perhaps not,—but we have no surety
• gainst the elements.
Now if we have any regard for the in
•■rests and safety of our cities along the
auks of our tide water, a memorial should
>e at once addressed to Congress (who
mve authority iu this matter,) asking for
he removal of the obstructions which hare
een placed in tide water within a few
.cars.
If these thoughts hastily penned hate
he effect to call the attention of the
icoplc to the importance of taking action
‘ a the matter, i shall have accomplished
