A clcan sweep and a righteous judgement say thoso who arc best informed It was suggested by many who Saw the magniOoeni display mado of these machines, and the rarioby and admirable quality of the work tlwy performod, that the. manufacturers wero romiss in not sending thom to the Paris Ex-positioft, and thus havo-obviated the bitter COBtrorersy boiag oarriod on over feho gold medal.
