A; Aandsome Income foi^<\ $nergctlo Lady or The Ogfcfiealw Work* of-Cincinnati have juel * complMHtM nro now introducing to the public a Handsomely fin is hod Family Foale, an artide that has always been needed in every household,, and in a communicat ion !tddrc*eed to the pubUahers of this paper the'proprietors ask us tormefthem tp some reliable party, to introduce it for them to the people of this County. It is very seldom that anew article steps so suddenly into universal /nvor. IIouso-keMere are loud in its praise* It is always ready, there are no weights to get lost or to be hunted up, is reliable, and will not get out of order. The description of them is a handsome base surmount ted by a co.umn in which works a spiral spriag so scientifically adjusted as to weigh anything up to twelve pounds with perfect accuracy; on the top of the column is tho platform on which the articles to be weighed aim placed, and they have an adjustable indicator 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 and other ingredients used in preserving, cooking, etc. or in testing tko weights of purchases from others. The Scales are made of all Brass, are highly polished and ore finished ia a skillful manner. They are very attractive and take,tlie eye of evory one who sees them. It soems to us that nearly every family in this oounty will want one, and is certainly a rare opportunity for some smart and energetic party to pick up a nice little income duting the next few months. The Company has agents in other , counties who are easily making from $5 00 tp $6 00 per day selling them, and we would re commend partiee in need of employment to drop the OHIO SCALE WORKS, No. 125 and 127 Cen tral Avenue, Cincinnati, 0., a Postal Card, and all information eto., will be cheerfully given them by mentioning our paper. 6-6t. * Frederick Stumpf, a St. Louis lawyer and onco a member of the Missouri Legislature, has just died, of a broken heart. Stumpf was a cripple, and for yenrs had been the inseparable | ^ companion of Voullaire, a brother lawyer, who ^ was a deformed dwarf. The two were utterly unlike, but their common misfortune attached them so closely to e.ich other thet when Voullaire recently died, Stumpf took to his bed and died, smply because he did not cure to live without his friend. CoMPbtMKsra to a South Caholimi ah.?Compliments continue to be paid the sensible, opportune and well-delivered speech of Mr. Aiken, against the payment of the so-called loyal war i c'aims. The portrait ho drew of South Carolina loyalist, will do for thoss nf ntK?? tu. republicans wince under the truths he told them, and it will be well for other Southern members to imitate the temper aed follow the line-of argument of Mr. Aiken on the ooeasion referred to. Many' Printbrs Rejoice.?The Democrats hnving jn caucus declared in favor of putting out the publio printing by contract gives much satisfaction to Democratic printers and others who have not been favored with work at the Republican government printing office. They will not only get a chance to earn a livelihood, but it is shown that the government can get the work done at much cheaper rates than nt present by tho adoption of the contract system. A Public Building vor Greenville.?Senator llutler wt II soon introduce a bill nppropiating $50,000 for the erection of apublio building nt Greenville, which will be used as a United States Courtroom, postoffice, &c. There is a bill pending in the Houso for the erection of a number of such buildings at different points, and if it pn?ses 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 homo and raises cotton as an incidental crop.? Give any family plenty of bread and meat and it is independent. Cotton alone will not make him comfortable, bccauso he must sell at other people's prices and buy his supplies the same wsy. The only remedy is plenty of piovisions. A Railroad For Five Dollars.?
