Patent Baby-Tender. 
It la not only A Noiseless and Cliarming Cra- 
dle, but is t-asily and instantly changed into either of the 
foliowini; articles, each in itself complete and perfect, naiuelj': 
A Reclining and Sitting Cotieli for infants. 
A Baby-Jumper, alfowini; perfect fieedomof motion. 
{See Cut.) 
A Baby-Horse for children of either sex. , 
A Baby- Walker, attractive and useful. 
A Nursery Chair. 
A Higli CUair for the table. 
An Ottoman, and; 
A deliglitful Hobby-Horsc for boya or girls. 
The Baby-Tender is entirely safe, simple, and easily unBer- 
Btood, and, with ordinary care, will last for many years. It 
stands on casters (no part beini; suspended), occupies no 
more space than a small trunk, and may be safely moved by 
a child of tliree years. 
Those wlio have never used it have no conception of the 
toil and anxiety wliich it saves to those having the care of 
infants and children. 
Since tlie illustrated description of the Baby-Tender was 
published In the American Agricnlturist, with the hearty 
endorsement of the editor, in December iSM, several import- 
ant improvements have been added, which are commended 
'br i)>« o.»«.<. «..tiimii>. ine iron work of the apparatus is 
made at the well-known establishment of Messrs. Wheeler 
& Wilson, which i3 a sufficient guarantee of excellent 
■workmanship. 
As the Buby-Tenders are now fitted up, no more accepta- 
ble, or useful Holiday Gift could he made in a family where 
there Is a baby. It is emphatically a "Help for Mothers."

^ewin^ Machines. 
We are having a great many inquiries for Sewing Ma- 
chines from various parts of the country, and as we can 
not conveniently reply to them all by mail, we have 
thought it proper to state our opinion in regard to them 
in this public manner. We have \ised Wilson's patent, 
manufactured by the Wheeler & Wilson Manufacturing 
Company. No. tJ25 Broadway, and we can say in regard 
to it, that it is without a rival. It is simple, not easily 
put out of order v\ lien in proper hands, and, in point of 
effectiveness and finish, no other machine stands ahead 
of it. This famous Sewing Machine is highly appreci- 
ated the world over. We stale this much in regard to 
the excellent macliine upon our own responsibility. 
This Company have maJe and sold during the last 
uirec iiiwnth? wtTuxit ie,©oo-«»<vahiruis. and are now pro lac- 
ing and selling 150 per day. They vary in price from 
$50 to $100, and the higiiest-priced ones sell best. In 
their business there is over $1,000,000 invested, and they 
keep 900 men regularly employed mantifacturing ma- 
chines. The system pursued is the same as that adopted 
in llie manufacture of arms ; eveiy piece is made to a 
guage, and consequently the parts of any machine may 
be transposed with those of another machine of the same 
size ; or, should an accident occur, tlie broken nait can 
be immediately replaced on application at the office. 
There is not an est-iblishment in this country where 
sfilching of any kind is reqnired. in v%liich the Sewing 
Machine is not emidnyed, and there are fevv private fam- 
ilies in which it is not an acknowieilged article of furni- 
tuie. This Cofn[>anv has just v\on the highest premium 
at the Inteinatior.ai Fair, Dublin, exhibiting its 200.000th 
machine, beautifully ornamented, with tlie American 
coat of arms. — Scientific American.

COTTAGE ORGANS 
and MELODEOIVS, 
WITH PATENTED IMPROVEMENTS, 
RENDERING THEM GREATLY SUPERIOR 
TO OTHER REED INSTRUMENTS, 
1st. In quick articulation. 
2nd. In Roundness of Tone. 
3d. In Volume of Tone. The three great essen- 
tials in instruments of this class. 
These are accomplished by the peculiar con- 
struction and voicing of the Keeds, the use of 
the Patent HAKMONirM Attachmext, which 
doubles the power by coupling the octavo: the 
Patent Manual Scb-Bass, a substitute for Pedal 
Bass, and the general arrangement of the instrument. 
This House has been manufacturing and improving during the last twenty years, until, witliout unusual t Jii.>rt, vv cxtcn* 
sive advertising, they have two of the largest manufactories in the United States, and yet can scarcely meet the demand for 
these truly remarkable instruments. 
They recently took the First Premium at the Albany and Troy Union Fair, and at the Michigan and Indiana State Fairs, 
over those of all the leading manufacturers in the land. Tliey have been tested side by side with others in Churches and 
Parlors, and have uniformly borne ofl' the palm. 
Testimonials could be multiplied indefinitely if space would allow. 
Jardine, the celebrated Organ Builder, of New York, pronounces them superior to all others In " exceedingly quick ar- 
ticulation and round tone," which jnrlgment is conflrnied by every Organist who has tested them. 
John H. Warner, Organist. New-York, says: " I regard ESTEY'S COTTAGE ORGANS as combining move excellences 
than any other Reed Instrument I have ever seen. They are remarkable for sweetness and variety of expression, combined 
with unusual volume of tone." 
C. Heintz. Organist, says: *'This Organ is the best for the size I ever saw, and the best adapted for Church Music 
of any in use." 
Prof. Oscar Mayo, says: "Its great range and resources for efi'ect are really astonishing. • • • * j prefer them 
above all others." 
To prove my sincerity in these statements I make the following proposition : Any reader of the Aqrictltfrist, pur- 
chasing one of these instruments, with the improvements, and finding it on fair trial, by impartial and competent judges, 
to fail in meeting these representations, shall have his money refunded and the Instrument returned without expense to the 
purchaser. As to the matter of my responsibility. I refer to Orange Judd. Esq. 
I also keep on hand thorouchly made and beautiful Pianos, whicli I sell much below the usual prices for this class of In- 
struments, and warrant them for five years.
