W. Phillips's Advertisement. IVr OTICE TO THE PUBLIC. Any of the following Phrases, such as — " TIIE CHEAPEST HOUSE IN TOWN," "AND CANNOT BE RIVALLED," "NOT TO BE EQUALLED," is all bosh, as " there are aB good flsh in the sea as ever came out of it." I have heard a barn-door fowl crow before to-day, and then get thrashed afterwards. I guess " that can't be rivalled," are rather big words, coming from a weak stomach, but GO TO PHILLIPS, (NEXT TO WYMOND & Co.'S) BRIDGE-STREET, AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELVES AS TO PRICE AND QUALITY OF EVERY ARTICLE.

THE BEST FAMILY SEWING MACHINE in the world. It comprises all the good points and combines al. that is valuable in the whole of them, besides which it has many important advantages possessed bv no other machine. THE REVERSIBLE FEED enables the operator to sew either way ; fasten to ends of seams without stopping or turning the work. IT HAS THE SELF - ADJUSTING SHUTTLE TENSION. IT MAKES FOUR KINDS OF STITCHES THE SAVING OF THREAD over machines making the chain or embroidery stitch will in one yoar be more than the cost oi the machine. THE LO"CK STITCH, compared with the chain stitch, is less clumsy i s less liable to be washed or ironed off, and doea not, like the latter, form a network to retain dirt. THE EXACT AND POSITIVE MOTION of every part, with no uncertain springs or brush pads, renders it almost impossible for a Florence Machine to get out of order, and enables even an ordinary operator to use it successfully. IT USES THE SAME SIZE THREAD on both Bides, and both sides of the Beam are alike. THAT IT IS THE BEST, is evidenced by the fact that of tho thousands sold in the United Kingdom during the past two years, none give dissatisfaction.
