Sewing Machines. TAYLOE'S PATENT LOOK STITCH SEWING MACHINES Are, with confidence, recommended to the public not only as containing Important Improvements but also as being constructed throughout m the most substantial manner possible. They make the Lock-stitch by means of a shuttle Working in an Elliptic Direction in such a position hfttUU • easily srcessiblo, ard where its action can besasily ffjf'sis rknowledged on all hands to be the most V noiseless Shuttle movement ever invented. These Machines have obtained distinction at 1 the more recent competitions, and have been awarded FIVE PRIZE MEDALS. AoiJ ct :— T. PEACOCK, OPTICIAN.

FIRST PRIZE, "THE GRAND MEDAL OF PROGRESS," Has been Awarded to THE SINGER COMPANY TOR THK UNQUALIFIED EXCELLENCE OP THE SINGER SEWING MACHINES. AND THE "GRAND MEDAL OF MERIT," For the Best Specimens of Sewing done. M. A. ALDRICH, Agent, Shortland street, Auckland. BEWINGr MACHINES MADE BY THE BRITANNIA COMPANY, COLCHESTER, ENGLAND, combine the best parts of the best Machines (avoiding their defects) with some recent special improve ments, which no other Machine possesses. Every make of Machine, however farjremoved from excellence, professes to be better than any other. The task of selecting a Sewing Machine is therefore rather a difficult one, especially if the purchaser has no knowledge of machines, and has no other guide than the representation of various dealers. Many people convinced of the advantage to be derived from using a Machine for needlework do not yet possess one because among so many they are unable to satisfy tliemso/ves as to which make is the best. As a practical man and an Engineer allow me to point out some cf the advantages of these Machines. They will 6o all that any other Machine will, and do it better, iccluding Hemmipg, Quilting, Felling, Cording, Binding, Braiding. Stitching, &c., &c, with a perfect stitch alike on both aides. They are fitted with nn improved break, which prevents the Machine turning the wrong way, and so entangling and breaking the thread. They make less noise than most Machines, and is the nearest possible approach to noiseless. They are very simple, and will run for years without costing a shilling for repairs. Every Machine is Warranted. Machines let out on hire, tho payment for which goes towards the purchase. Machines of other makers taken in ex change. Repairs properly done.

You are aware that in the first place I only saw you with a friend I accompanied, and not with the in tention of consulting you; hut telling you of the excitement I felt, and asking you if you would kindly look' and see if anything were the matter, you told me at once what it was, and prepared me for the extraction.- of the same.

[','" OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. | Mr 1..5. Eosenthal.—This celebrated; oculist and aurist arrived in Dubbo from Orange on Friday last, and since then he has been pretty largely employed. His quarters at the Royal' Hotel'have been attended by people from air parts of the district, from the Bogani «Castlereagh, i and Macquarie., i And^ as ,far as an unprofessional person can judge, we can say—and say, it boldly,-that Mr Rosenthal has effected some wonderful-cures. We determined to inquire for ourselves into'his cases, and the consequences have been that although at, first' we were rather sceptical about that great skill that worked such ,miracles, as it were, on the blind'and deaf, we are now thoroughly convinced. Yesterday we saw three of his patients, picked, we may say, promiscuously, from a number under treatment, and:we will just note them. The first was a, Mrs White, resident at Coonamble. She was almost, indeed.1 we may say totally, blind, when she came to Mr Rosenthal.. Now, she can see per fectly well out.,of one eje, and the other, though . rather weak just- "at present, promises to be as well as it ever was. Mr* Thomas Matthews, bf Meri Meri, when he placed himself under the doctor, could not see at all well, and had a cataract on the right eye. The cataract is disappearing, and the sight of the eye improving, daily. The left eye is perfectly well. Mrs Wilds, of Gfadgery, Merri Merri, was very deaf—a person had. to .shout in her ear to be heard ; she was also,, indeed, »«,..may say totally,.blind, when she came to JVlr Roseritlial. Now she can see perfectly well out" of brie eye, and the other, though rather weak just at present, promises to be as as well as it ever was. Mr Thomas Matthews, of Merri Merri when he placed himself under the Doctor, could not see jvt all well, and had a cataract -on the right eye. The cataract is disappearing, and the sight of the eye improving daily. The left eye is perfectly well. Mrs Wilds, of Gradgery, Merri Merri, was very deaf — a peVsori had to shout in her ear to he heard ; she was also suffeiing from defective vision ; in fact, as she expressed it In the .presence of the writer, "she could just see daylight." : A scum, had gathered over both1 her eyes;; she can now hear fairly, and in a week or" ,so a perftct'cure is sure to take place. She caii feee almost as well -asever- she could ; but of courses the. vision .is somewhat weak, and the eyes through being under treatment, a good deal inflamed Mr fD. M'Killop, J.P., of Terra Bella, had every symptom of approaching deafness—the hearing of one1 i.ear ivas nearly stopped. Yesterday he underwent an operation performed by: Dr Rosenthal. and, after a lasse of. seven minutes, the ear regained all its normal properties; It is, in the face of these facts— whidh we:'can vouch for ourselves—impossible to question the Doctor's great skill. We have no hesitation in advising all suffering from diseases of theaye and ear to pay Jliim a visit, for we are con vinced 6 h*t, fa cure. can. be effected.heis the man todbit If t is impossible to do so he will not buoyli is patient with false hopes—an admirable trait in his character —Dubbo Dispatch.

We have not been disappointed. Thetesti monials and the favourable newspaper notices are »ll fully borne out—they are truthful. We have onrsdma seen three instances where Dr Eosenthal has reitored I sight to the totally Mind foi yeaTS, besides imptowS ' vision to many who were suffering from opthalmic diseases of months or two years' standing, w, mention, because he is well known throughout thb1 district, Mr James Horßfall, whose defective sight his V been radically enrfd.

Mr B»yU» h , .who has had bad eyes for years, has been completely "*■' i cured, and so have the eyes of Mrs Reynolds.
