1. It;ia the simplest shuttle machine
made.
. It has less wearing rrts.
8. It has no small springs or compound
cranks.
4. It is better adapted to a large range of
work without change.
5. It has less pisces of macliinery.
H. It is less liable to break needles than
any other machine.
7. The shuttle will wear longer than the
shuttle In any other machine. " .
8. That it has the let feeding device,
which will never wear out, get out of or
der, break needles, feed unevenly, slip on
starched goods, or pucker the scam so that
one part of the fabric will come out shorter
than the other, which all other feeds are
liable to do. . It makes every stitch of an
equal length. It is stronger than other
feeds. AVe can take a strong piece of clot n,
and put one end in our inacuine and the
other end in any other machine, and guar
antee that our machine will take the cloth
from the other, in consequence of the su
perior strength of the feed.
It is t he only feed strong enough to feed
thick sole leather, sewing on shoe soles.
No soaping the cloth, or any other aid is
required. ' .
It has no complicated machinery, and
therefore is not liable to get out of order.
It. lias a beautiful movement, making
nearly two thousand stitches per minute.
The Buckeye Sewing Machine-makes the,

Singer, and Florence, alike on both Bides.
We offer a premium of one hundred tiollar
for any machine on this coast that will
make a stronger or more elastic stitch than,
the Buckeye. For full part icnlars address,

Cincinnati, Ocfb-r 1. 1S9.
MrssRS. J. Ji. Uabkm & Co. :ients:
Aliout one year ago I took a cold, which
settled on my lungs. A violent cough was
the consequence, which increased in sever
ity. I exixf t orated large quantities of
phlegm anil matter. During the last win
ter 1 became so much reduced that I was
contined to my bed. The disease was at
tended with cold chills and night sweats.
A diarrhea set -in. My friends thought I
was in the last stages of con sumption, and
could not possibly get well. I was recom
mended to try
Allen' Lung ISalsam.
The formula was given to me. whicln
duced me to give it a trial; and I will only
add that my cough is entirely cured, and I
am now able to attend to mv business as
usual. P. MEREDITH.
All nfllicted with congh,or any throat or
lung trouble, should use Allen's Euug Bal
sam without delay. J. X. Harris & Co. sole

CAUTION!
Do not be deceived, yon whowantagood
medicine, and desire -le Lunit liut

to sell you a preiiaration called Allen's Pec

IECTTRES.-i-In the nish of business
last week' we omitted to mention the
fact that the great" eliampion of
Woniau's Eights, iliss Susan Ji. Anth-
ony, levHiitHi three tunes during uie
week, each time drawing large audi-
uces. Miss Snsau told -a number .-of
wlHtlesoine truths, and her lectures
were well received; We wish her
ample remuneration for her time, and
i pleasant and happy sojourn in Ur-
'gon. j
Mrs. J. B. Frost, aim delighted our
eitiA'tis by delivering a lecture in the
Court-house' one evening last week," in
whivh sle combattexl and entirely ovr-
threw, hi tier estimation at least, the
i-gunMnts of Miss Anthony on the
woman's wrights question. M. Frost

well filled on tlte occasion of her
lecture. ! , - ;
Massive Turnip. On Saturday,
through the politeness of A. N". Ar
nold, TCstt., we were presented with a
monster turnip, mid turnip measur
ing thirty-six inches in circumference.
It was raised by Mr. S. M. V. llind-
uinn, at ('amp Polk, alout one hun
dred miles from this city, out on the
"Willamette Valley ami Cascade Moun
tain agon jltoad, and, with others
etprdly as lafge, was on exhibition at
our County Fair. Mr. Hindman says
tliat the field from which this monster
was taken, was fidl of milar speci
mens, some of them even larger.
Oregon has long been celebrated for
her large red apples, extraordinary
squashes and pumpkins, heavy yields
of superior wheat and oat, and now
she comes in! and claims the belt on
her massive turnips. Way out' in the
mountains, where it was thought noth
ing would grow to any profitable ex
tent, they send us in a few dozen turnips
that eompletly fill a common wagon
bed and make a good load for a span
of horses ? Oregon's possibilities have
hardly tieguii to be told.
A Good WAGON.-On exhibition at
the County; Fair, was a two-horse
wajron manufactured by our friend
Mr. Win. Peters, wliose shop is on
Ferry street, south of the Register
office. It was a strong, durable, well-
made and tastily painted vehicle, just
such an one as the farmer "wants a
wagon out of which the purcJiaser can
get the worth of the cash invested In
long before it is worn out or unfit
for service. Peters is hard to beat in
the manufacture of a good, lasting,,
light-running wagon and the beauty
of it is, he "gets them up on the most
reasonable terms. ' f
THreF Arrested". iufolinationliav-
Ins- reached Sheriff IrVIne, that a
robbery liad been committed IhTJti
vais on Sunday, together , With 'a par
tial description 0t the supposed thief,
on Toestlay Bob arrested A party n
s weringi the description, , lotlged hiul
in jail, and sent forward word to G-r-vais
of fthe fact. i The, fellow claimed
that his mme 'n 3idward MeBride,
although hegnve his name as Kdwanl
Mctntyre when applying: for work
where he took the money. Tlie m:tn
was token to, Gei-vals oil Vednesdy,
where t lie acknowledged committitig
the robbery. Tlie facts of tlie cas
were thus related to vis by S"liefitf 'Bob
Irviue : McBridei as we shall call him,
applied on Saturday last at Mr. Tho.J
Hunt's, some three miles below Ger
vals, for work, stating tlvrt lie was out
of money Mr. II tint took cbirfia!i
sion on the fellow, and set him to work.
On Sunday Mr, and 3Irs. Hunt went
to church or to a neighbors, and wlien
they returned hi the evening, McBrltte
was absent, and $3t50 winch had been
in Mr. Hunt's strong-box, h'td also
disappeared. As soon as possible a
wsirrimt was issued, and parties ifiit
out in search of MeBride. It scents
tluit the thief took matters very leisnr-
ly . After getting the money, lie made
his way tO 'Silvertoi,.vAvhere he pur
chased a horse, saddle and bridle, "pay
ing $75 therefor. He also put in arv
appearance at a dance on Monday
evening. Being of a roaming dispo
sition, he soon tried of tlie , " sylvan
sliados" of Silverton, and in liis new
"rig," with a pocket full of money,
he came on to Albany. Here it seems
he met many old acquaintances to whom
he was indebted in various sums,- vary
ing from $6 to $20; and it is said this
honest thief paid up all 'rotnnl Whet
arrested and, searelied by" Sheriff Irvine
he had on his person $194 CO in coin,
a watch for which he 1 d paid $20, and
tlie horse above spoken of. He will
doubtless soon be enjoying Bill Wad
kinds' tender care.
Guide Boards. -The Willamette
Farmer calls attention to this subject,
and it should be attended to by all
means. Great inconvenience and per
plexity, as well as loss of time, would
be saved to the traveler, if guide-boards
were put upat the cross-roads thorough-
out the State. Any one -who lias ex
perienced the trouble of finding, or
keeping in the right road while travel
ing through an unfamiliar country,
will at once see the importance of
these boards, and as far as possible
contribute to the comfort of the trav
eling community by putting them up,
or seeing that it is done. ;

Visit to Salem -We had tlie
pleasure of meeting with Rev.'s Mr.
Nickerson and Stratton at the resi
dence of the former, in Salem, List
Sabbath.; Rev. Mr. Nickerson Is the
popular pastor of the M E. Church in
tliat pkice, but . is at present disabled
from pastoral work in consequence of -a
contusion of the knee pan, received
at the depot last; Saturday evening by
a fall. The injury is as painful one,
and will require careful nursing to
heal. The Rev. Mr. Stratton lias but
recently returned from a visit through
the Sound region, where he has been
prosecuting his business successfully
as agent of the Metltodist University
at Salem. We were very much pleas
ed ;with the thrifty appearance of
Salem,aod its general air of intelli
gence and refinement. We were
shown the plans of the new Mothodlst
Church, now in tlie process of erec
tion there, the corner stone of which
was laid with appropriate ceremonies
to-day. The plan is a 'beautiful one,
and the building, when . completed,
will be a magnificent structure. It is
to cost $30,000.
Enlarged. Our " readers will ob
serve tliat the number of the Register
before them Is considerably-, enlarged
and. otherwise improved. It Is now
the equal of any paper in Oregon in
size. This has been done without any
increase in the price, the Register
still being furnished to subscribers at
$3 00 per annum. We hope . that tlie
increase in circulation will amply jus
tify us in the great expense incurred in
the purchase of an entire new office.
If the. friends of the Register will
still continue to speak a good word for
it, we shall soon be able to add other
new and attractive features soon. In
the mean time, how do you like the
Register?
