TIT-HEELER and WILSON'S PATENT V V LOCK-STITCH SEWING MACHINES, for families and manufacturers,, are vastly superior to all others. As evidence of the fact, they were awarded tlie prize gold medal at. the GrcatExliibifton, 1862 and at the Paris Exhibition 1861, also at the Victorian Exhibition 1863 and 1864. These machines make the tight lock-stitch — the only one which cannot be ravelled — with tlie rotating hook at great; improvement on the shuttle, as it is far more durable, and not near so liable to get out of order. Wheeler and Wilson's machines work equally well upon silk, cotton, woollen, and linen goods, plaiding, binding, cording, tucking, hemming, xriling, gathering, seaming, quilting, performing every 7 species of sewing with a speed of from 1200 to 1500 ' stitches per minute, makes a regular, strong, and beautiful stitch, exactly the same on both sides of the fabric sewed, is simple in construction, easy of management, elegant in appearfince. A t the present REDUCED PRICES there is no excuse for having shuttle machines. Reference given to dressmakers, tailors, and Manufactures of clothing, who have had the machines in constant use for years. We would call particular attention to the address 166 Bourke Street East, up stairs ; several inferior machines having been sold under the impression of being ours.
