The following are a fiw bC the/m.lrfy testimonials we are cfmstantly/receiving, furnishing a convincing /iroof of their superiority From the ‘Express —“ Having had an opportunity for several months past of closely, inspecting the working of a Grover and Baker’s Sewing Machine, we have much pleasure in testifying that it is adapted for every kind of work set forth in the prospectus. It combines the eha'nis of plain stitching with the attractions of embroidery, inwhich of course the femalemind espeoialy delights. Although the Grover and Baker’s machine is exceedingly useful for plain sewing, it is an embroiderer that it takes its highest rank among its competitors, none of whom that wo know of having attained such excellence. The machines are, in fact, in every way invaluable to households, and when the immense saving of labor compared j with hand-sowing is taken into consideration. it is remarkable that they are not more generally used.” . . “ No. 45, Adelaidestreet, Melbourne, October 20.

It has never been out of order nor given any trouble in working from the first week, and I believe it to be the best machine extant. I am, gentlemen, Yours, &c., D. M. Crowley, upholsterer.
