7T~r~ -" T fc \ 1 A Handsome Income for.nn Energetio Lady or Uent^MBta^ The Scale Works of Cincinnati have just couiplcNPbnd arc now introdu(*n$ to the public a Handsomely finished Family Scale, an article that has always beeu needed ?n every household, aud iu a communication fU'ireesod to the publishers of this paper the proprietors ask us 10 r#cf them to some reliable parly, to iutroduco it for them to the people of this County. It is very seldom that anew article steps so suddenly into universal /nvor. House-keepers are loud iu its praise. It is always ready, there are no weights to get lost or to be hunted up, is reliable, nnd will not get out of order. The description of them is a handsome base surmount ted by a co.iimn in which works a spiral spring so scientifically adjusted as to weigh cuytliing up to twelve pounds with perfect accuracy; on the top of the column is tne platform on which the articles to be weighed are placed, aud they have an adjustable iudicaior so that you can take the tare of any vessel you may use in * weighing, giving you the exact net weight.? Housekeepers at once see their value in weighing fruits, sugars nnd other ingredients used in preserving, cooking.etc. or in testing the weights of purchases from others. The Scales are made of all Brass, aro highly i<i>mhu?u uuu uru iuumiicu iu a sKiiiitu manner. They are very attractive aud takejlie eye of every one who sees them. It seems to us that nearly every family in this county will want one, and is certainly a rare opportunity for sotno smart and energetic party to pick up a niee little income during the next few months. The Company has ageuts in other counties who aro easily making from $6 00 to ?0 00 per day selling them, and we would recommend parties in need of employment to drop the OHIO SCALE WORKS, No. 126 aud 127 Cen tral Avenuo, Cincinnati, O., a Postal Card, aud all information etc., will he cheerfully given them by mentioning our paper. 6-6t. Froderick Stumpf, a St. Louis lawyer and once a member of the Missouri Legislature, has just died of a broken heart. Stumpf was a cripple, and for years had been the inseparable companion of Voullaire, a brother lawyer, who was a dcfoi raed dwarf. The two were utterly unlike, but their common misfortune atlaciicd them so closely to each other thet when Voullaire recently died, Stumpf took to his bed and died, suiply because he did uot c~rc to I've without his friend. - ? ? CompIiIMKSrs to a South Carolinian.?Complitujnts continue to be paid the sensible, opportune end well-delivered speech of Mr. Aiken, a -Ainst the payment of tho so-called loyal war c aims. The portrait lie drew of South Carolina loyalist, will do for thoso of other States. The republicans wince under tho truths he told them, ami it will be well for other Southern members to imitate the temper and follow the line of argument of Mr. Aiken on the occasion referred to. Manv Printers Ukjoice.?The Democrats having in caucus declared iu favor of putting out the puolic printing by contract gives much satisfaction to Dcinocralic printers and others who li:ive not been favored with work at the Republican government printing o(lice. They will not only get a chance to earn a livelihood, but it is shown that the government can get tho work done at much cheaper rates tliau at present by the adoption of the contract system. A Puiiuc Itcii.nixn for Greenville.?Sena tor miner win soon introiiiicc a bill appropiating 5*50,000 for the erection of a public building at Greenville, which will be nseil as a United States Courtroom, postoffice, &c. There is a bill pending in the Mouse for the erection of a number of such buildings at different points, and if it parses there Greenville can be added when it comes to the Senate. An exchange says, the Southern farmer cannot prosper until he makes his provisions at home and raises cotton as an incidental crop.? Give nuy family plenty of bread and meat and it is independent. Cotton alone will not make him comfortable, because lie must sell at other people's prices and buy his supplies the same way. The only remedy is plenty of provisions. . . \ Uaii.uoad For Fivk Dom.aus.? Wilmington, Del., February ID.?A special to the Evert/ JCvr.niny, says that the Eastern Shore ltailroad was sold this morning, at Princess Anne, Md., to the lirst mortgage bondholders for five dollars, subject to a lien ot' $100,000.
