The Sewing Machines made by the Singer Sewing Manufacturing Companyare acknowledged by common consent to be by far the best Sewing Machines that mechanical ingenuity has been able to produce. Although the Singer Sewing Machines are comparatively late in the field, yet the extraordinary demand for them during the past few years—as indicated by the successive annual sales—has obliged this enterprising company to increase their Factories to an extent that seems almost incredible. The largest of their Factories is at Elizabeth, New Jersey. Here, the main building has 1100 feet frontage; Forging Shops 700 feet; Foundrv, GOO feet by 100 feet; Cabinet Shop, 200 feet; Packing Shops, 200 feet. The main building has four floors ; the Cabinet and Packing Shops have each three floors. Entire works employ 3,500 men. The Yard contains G miles railroad tracks. There are also Factories at, or near, the City of Glasgow, and tho dimensions of these works may be imagined, when we say that 2,500 hands here, as at the American works, find constant employment. The turn-out of Machines alone is 10,000 every week, or, at the rate of 500,000 (half a million) for the current year. The various parts and new accessories, needles, oil, &c., &c, required for the 3,500,000 Sewing Machines, which are in use all over the world—these demand special attention and much labour. A Staff of Skilled Mechanics and Sewing Machine Experts is always employed for the sole purpose of making every possible Mechanical Improvement on the Machines and accessories. As there are other Branches or Agencies in nearly every town in the civilised world, .all who desire to have the Best Sewing Machine, and the Cheapest, can easily obtain a GENUINE SINGER, accompanied with a Written or Printed Guarantee signed by the authorised agent. The TJnparalled Success of this Leviathan Business can only be attributed to the uniform excellence of all the Company's Manufactures, as well as to the most approved mechanical principles on which all Singer's Machines aTe built. ' And notwithstanding the Very Great Reduction in Prices, the Company continues to give wonderfully Easy Terms to Purchasers on the Hire or Deferred Payment System.
