THE SILENT SEWING MACHINE!
AS A FAMILY ASSISTANT,
The Willcox Si tilths Sewing Machine!
Will be found to excel all other*. 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 with this Machine, do nut yet know the full blessing and comfort of a Sewing Ma
chine in the family, though they may possess many others and think they are satisfied.
In proof of this assertion is the significant fact,
lhat its strongest advocates and most enthusiastic admirers are always found among
those who have used and are most familiar with oth*. r leading 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 & Gibbs Sewing Machine in our respective families upon
all the various kinds of work required, some of us from one to six years, others for
a 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 and
quietly, is simple and easy in its management, does not get out of order, is always
ready, its work is strong and durable, and m all respects gives most entire satisfaction

Augusta, Oct. 16, I860,
A New Era in Piano Fortes!
HAS now become an established fact, aeknow
. lodged by the best judges of music in all parts
ol the country, that the
Mathushek Piano,
Is bound to take the lead for
Rich, Pure, and Powerful Tone!
Which speaks for itself in notes of triumph over all
others. The Reason of this Great Superiority
is apparent to all who carefully examine ttie pecu
liar mechanism of these instruments in
Tlic Equalizing Stale,
which distributes the tension of the strings upon
all parts of the frame, relieving the instrument from
concentrated strain in any one part, thus securing
much greater strength, durability, and power of j
keeping in tune,
The Greater Length of Strings,
through all the treble and middle notes, the difctri- 1
bution of strings upon the
TAnear ISri<li><*,
w hieh runs the whole length of the sounding board, j
giving greatly
Incroased Power of Vibration
throughout it** entire length, producing a purer t
tone and better accompaniment to the voice than i
any other instrument.
All interested are invited to call on

It is something to die as Lincoln and
Sedgwick, in the llush of labor and oppor
tunity and duty. There is glory in it, even
ecstasy, such as the true warrior must feel
when he dies amid the thunder of war. But
men like Stewart, and Wool, and Peabody,
and Kendall, and Walker, live two lives—
a life of action and a life of contemplation.
But for St. Helena we should not know
Napoleon. Had he died at Waterloo his
life would have been to future ages a vague
and dazzling dream. Six fears of thought
enabled him to speak as well as act—and
the words he spoke to Las Cesas, and Bert
rand, and Montholon, did as much for a true
estimate of his fame as the most brilliant
achievements of his life. The great man
retires into his library or his gardens, and
looks upon himself in history—how he
walked and labored—where he failed, and
where he triumphed—where he was weak,
and where he was strong. This completes
and rounds a career.—New York Times.
---ac
Making it Plain.—The preacher at the
African church at Frankfort was recently
.telling his congregation about Moses
crossing the lied suv, and to make his de
scription quite plain illustrated it as fol
lows :
“S'pose you is dc ehillen ob Israel, and
l\se Moses, Jarsey is the wilderness and
llridesburg is de Promised Land. Well, I
brings you down to de ribber and waves
my hand us towards Tacony, and de
waters roll backward towards Pkiladel
phy, and we all go over without gettin
wet. When de last pickaninny gits over
I waves my hand toward Philadelphy and
I waves my hand towards Tacony—and
dey was tishin’ for shad (lere de next
mornin’!"
“Look up ! The world is radiant with
light, is great and beautiful, and God is
everywhere. Let those who toll their
bells yonder worship him in their way;
we canrfot do so ; churches are but little
chambers in the Temple of the universe.
They shall not come to me and crowd the
Highest into a revelation or a rite. God
is great and holy everywhere and it is im
possible not to find him. We have Him
here beneath the wide arch of heaven, and
we have Him in our hearts. Whoever is
breathed ypon by this eternal breath lives
a holy life.”—Auerbach's Villa Eden.
