DAVID,—Sir,—You ask me "my candid opinion of the 'Elias Howe' Machine." To that question there can be but one reply from any practical worker or niechanic-I know the working and mechanical qualities of about 12 machines, but I must confess, that for all purposes in one machine, ease in working, accuracy of stitch and durability, it surpasses all others. All who have bought the I Elias Howe' on my advice are thoroughly satisfied.—I remain, yours truly, W. B. BLISS. From the STANDARD, November 3rd, 1869. "CONTEST BETWEEN SEWING MACHINES.—An interesting trial of sewing machines lately took place at London, Canada, in the pre- sence of his Royal Highness Prince Arthur. The result was given in a despatch to the London house of Elias Howe, 64, Regent- street, by Mr. L. C. Mendon, the manager in Canada. It appears that that house received the first prize at the provincial Exhibition for family and manufacturing machines. The contest lasted eight hours, and the 'Howe' machine proved victorious.

The Ports of 1868 possess those rare qualities necessary to Wines of high character, viz. natural richness, fine colour, ex- treme delicacy, with good body and bouquet, besides being per- fectly free from Oidium (for the first time for the long penod of eighteen years), and, consequently cannot fail to develope quali- ties of the highest excellence. Believing from the success that attended the Ports referred to in our letter to The Times of the 21st of October, 1865, that those Wines cannot fail to give equal, and even much greater satisfac- tion, and that they will speedily develope their fine qualities in Bottle and become elegant as well as valuable Wines, we with confidence offer the pure Vintage Fort of 1863 to your favourable consideration.
