There', a .pot that I love, there’s a home that 1 prike Far better than any on earth; It i. bound to my heart by the holle.t ties; Amt I prise, oh! how fttndly its worth— Ti. not beauty nor splendor, endears it to me, Oh, no! for its grandeur hath flown: But ’(i. fond affection that blnda me to thee, My old house—my dear happy home! Oh I home—what dear magir i. In that sound : How closely it speaks to thy heart; What a world of deep tenderness in thee is found; Oh ! who from sueh treasures could part? Could barter the Joys of a sweet home of love, For a path in a strange world unknown. Could seek for vain pleasures and heartlessly rove, If they knew the real value of home ? Some sigh to be wealthy, some seek to he great, Some envy what others ran do; But oh! I’m content in my lowly estate, For the hearts ail around me are true; And ties that are nearest and dearest to me, And hearts that are truly mine own, With fondest affection now hind me to thee, My old house—my dear happy home.

NEW EASTERN DEPOT for tiie world renowned SINGER SEWING MACHINES. Opposite the Post Office, AUGUSTA, - - MAINE. These Machines, by their simplicity, durability, and the great range of work they exccu^.*, have gained a reputation truly enviable. The famous success of the singkk M vm factck i\<; ( omi’A.n v has stimulated many other compan ies to put forth all their energies and talents to produce a sew ing machine that w ould eclipse or equal the Singer, hut in every ease they have sig nally tailed, as is plainly show n by the fact, that of all die travelling agents—“runners or drummers” —of other companies, none have the assurance to claim more than an equality w ith the Singer, even upon any special class of work. There arc many sew ing machines, now offered to the public, that have their good points, and are of much assistance to the housewife and the industri ous seamstress. Parties purchasing a sewing ma chine of ain/ sort, llnd the improvement on the old fashioned way of sew ing hv hand so great and pleasing, that they are naturally. but erroneously, led to believe that they have the best, until the spejl Is broken by the introduction of the Singer of' lfsTO into a neighbor’s family, which is sure, by tin* in creased rapidity and ease with which it docs every kind of plain or fancy sew ing, to aw aken them to a positive, although it maybe silent acknowledge ment of the painful truth that there are very many varieties of work that are easily executed upon the singer, but that they must either he content to do without, or exchange, at a heavy pecuniary sacri fice, their eurved-needled, fVail-powered, unrelia Ide-tensioned, low speeded or ravd-stitched ma chine for a Singer .\ar Family Machine. Various expedients are resorted to, that the pub- : lie eye may be turned from the singer for the pur pose* of introducing inferior machines—vi/, “The Itutton-llole Dodge,” “The Over-seaming,” “The I >ouhle-I,oek-Knoi*stitch.”“Klastir Stitch.” “Twist ed Loop,” “.Self-Adjusting Ten-Urns,” “lling Finish and beautifully Ornamented," - straight Needle,” “Stitch-Alihe-on-both-sides,” “Medals from Fairs,” “Vertical Feed bars,” “Noiseless Running," “Silent Feed,” and last and w orst of all. the low-priced— “Family shuttle Machines.” Many of these points are desirable, (and the singe rex eel Is all in each individual speciality) but the greatest use made of these special points' is by the retail agent who parades tht-ni before the inex perienced purchaser with such fluent and earnest style, as to entirely divert attention from the really important hearing's of the case. While other inno cent local agents ignorantly represent that the ma chine -old by them is capable of doing every varie ty of work, eyim/ to the Singer, and often do they tlms unconsciously swindle customers who cannot afford to squander their substance upon gilded follies and worthless rattle-traps. Parties in quest of a Sew ing Machine should look about them and learn what machine i- nio.-t exten sively used in families, tailor shops, shoe factories, and carriage factories. It is un acknowledged fact, ireely admitted lag all sewing machine dealers, that mon than two-thirds of all the clothing worn in this country by both sexes, whether custom made or ready made, is actually manujaettired agon Tilt: SlNtiEU SEWIN'. Machine These Machines are manufactured by one of the oldest, strongest, and most enterpri-ing Compan ies that has ever been engaged in the bu.-ine-- in the world. Throughout their immense manufac tories. which ave kept in constant operation “day and night,” none hut highly skilled mechanics are ! employed. Newly improved machinery is em ployed turning out each part finished to that me chanical e\a« tness. that every one is a perfect du plicate of the other in size, weight and finish. All new inventions are carefully examined and tested, and if approved, are adopted, regardless of ex pense, while the many impractical humbugs that al'e patented, are left to grace some new wonder and learn the purchaser w hen too late, that he has “paid too dear for his w bi-tle.” It should be re membered that the singer Manufacturing Com pany’ has never made a poor Machine—from the very first twenty-odd years ago. They never buv editorial notices*, or expend funds in -'log-rolling'’ at Fairs to g;vjn medals or premiums. They simply make their Machines as valuable as money and science can perfect them—place them in their Sales Rooms, and leave the public to llnd out their virtues in their own way. by this straight I forward course they arc now maiuitm till ing about four hundred per ’lav. and at that rate, even, are unable to supply the demand. > WHAT IS THK NKW FAMILY SINGER OF 1*70? f It I- the concentrated result of twenty years cx I perieme in buiidibg Sewing Machine*.
