NEWSPAPER.
The Hartford Courant,
(DAILY AND WEEKLY,) AND THE
Hartford Evening Press,
THE COURANT is the oldest newspaper of prominence in the United States, and with less than half-a-dozen exceptions, the oldest printed in the English language. It was founded in Oc- tober, 1764, and has been published uninterruptedly, under the same title, ever since.
THE DAILY COURANT
issued every morning except Sundays is the LARGEST DAILY IN NEW ENGLAND, and the only one which is regularly printed in the modern metropolitan quarto form. No effort or expense is spared to give it the character of a first class journal. It is published
AT 8.00 A YEAR,
and has a circulation second to but one provincial Eastern daily.
The DAILY COURANT publishes the weekly list of Adver- tised Letters in accordance with the law of Congress author- izing the Postmaster to print the same in the paper having the largest circulation within the limits of his Post Office delivery.
THE EVENING PRESS
is issued in two editions every afternoon, and is a distinct sheet from THE COURANT, possessing its own staff of writers, and containing a full resume of the news together with a large variety of interesting miscellany.
ITS PRICE IS $7.00 YEARLY.
THE CONNECTICUT COURANT
is a very large weekly, carefully made up of the most valua- ble matter appearing in the two dailies, and accompanied eve- ry other week by an eight paged literary supplement. Its circulation now approaches 10,000 copies, extending to all parts of the country, and making it one of the best advertis- ing mediums in New England.
Its Terms are $2.50 a Year, or to Clubs $2.00.
POSTAGE .- The postage on the WEEKLY in Hartford coun- ty, FREE ; to any part of the country 26 cents a year. On the DAILY, mailed to any State, 30 cents per quarter. The dailies are sent in bundles by express to towns about Hartford without cost to the subscriber.

BERNARD PETERS, Editor.
DURING the past year THE POST has passed under its pres- ent management. It has received the highest commendations from the public and the press, and, as the result, IT HAS MORE THAN DOUBLED ITS CIRCULATION. It has a larger country circulation than any other Hartford daily, and has made such important gains in the city, that it is now, ONE OF THE BEST ADVERTISING MEDIUMS IN THE CITY.
In the management of the paper no pains are spared to make it acceptable to the family circle. The news of the day is carefully condensed and promptly given. Miscellaneous de- partments are kept vp, in which a full variety of interesting items appear. Its editorial pages keep pace with the events of the day. Foreign & domestic matters are discussed with candor. Politically it does not follow the blind lead of any party, though advocating fearlessly the cause of the Union, it will always aim to cultivate amity and harmony on sound princi- ples throughout the length and breadth of the land. If a truth is to be spoken, it will give it utterance boldly, not hesitating from motives of policy or expediency, till the truth itself be- comes "flat, stale and unprofitable." It will seek to be in advance on all public questions, and will criticise men and measures independent of party considerations.

A GATE that slides, balances and swings, was patented by Joel Lee, May 23d, 1865. It is cheaper than bars, and more convenient. Can be made and hung in 40 minutes. Can be built with cheap lumber for 80 cents, and can be operated by a child 5 years old. This gate has taken the first premium at all STATE FAIRS where it has been on exhibition, as the cheapest, easiest made, and most convenient farm gate in use. Rights for average farms are sold for $5.00 each, including printed drafts and specifications. On receipt of $5,00, in all cases accompanied by a particular description of the land of which the Right is desired, the appropriate Conveyance, Drafts, &c., will be promptly forwarded.

WATERS-SON
WASHING MACHINE.
And Dealer in the Improved Cog-Wheel Wringer.
The Champion is acknowledged by all who have ever used it to be the most Perfect, Durable and Economical Machine for washing ever brought before the Public. It costs less than the ordinary Washing Aparatus and we defy any one to use it three weeks and prefer the old wash board process.
The advantage the CHAMPION has over all others are as follows : Its COMPACTNESS, its LIGHTNESS, its EASE, it also saves SOAP and FUEL, as it is not necessary to BOIL the clothes when washed by the CHAMPION MACHINE. A boy ten years old can use it. It is needless to make any more comments, as it is the privilege of all to try it before they buy.
All orders sent to WM. L. HUNTTING, East Hartford, Ct., will receive prompt attention. An Agent wanted in every town in Hartford County.

SEWING MACHINES.
WILCOX & GIBB'S SILENT
Sewing Machines
ARE THE BEST
Family Sewing Machines in the World.
REASONS WHY. It is absolutely noiseless as compared with any other Machine.
It runs with half the power of any other Machine. It never breaks a needle, or thread, or drops a stitch.
Its needle is self-adjusting and can be set in the dark.
It makes the most elastic seam, and fastens its own seam.
You can Hem, Fell, Braid, Cord, Tuck or Em- broider on this Machine as easily as you can do ordinary work on any other, and stitches all its work on the right side.
THE BEST REASON! ANYBODY CAN RUN IT!
A child 14 years old, of ordinary intelligence can learn to run it in one hour.
