Gbeat Fioon in tue Mississippi. —A great
flood has occurred in the Mississippi and Wisconsin
rivers, destroying property to an Incalculable
amount. A large portion of Fort Winnebago is
unindated and several flouring mills at Peru have
been carried away. The Burlington, lowa Gazette,
atates that the tributaries of the Mississippi are
greatly swollen, and much damage done in the vi
cinity. The river is within eighteen inches of the
great flood of 1844. At Hannibal, Mo, the river
is rising rapidlv, and the country for fifty miles m
length, and six in breadth, is unindated.

The-worst fears are entertained as to the fate of a

who has been attending tqthe business of an exten

the first fork of the Sinneinahoning on luesday the

the Wykoff road to Karthoust, intending to strike
the Smethnort turnpike at Smiths, and vvaß on foot,

although a large number of people have been
searching the woodgiever since. A number of dif

facts are as above stated. | Mr. Baab is supposed
to have had a considerable sum'of money with him,

Important to Farmers and Ma
chine Makers.
THE Bubscriber respectfully informs the public
that he has lately completed a TRIPLE RE
ACTING INTERNAL GEARED HORSE POWER,
which outrivals any other in use. It is .made en
tirely of Iron, both Frame and Gearing. The Jour
nals are Cast-Steel —its weight is 600 lbs. On trial
it has proved itself capable of performing from 50
to 100 per cent, more work than other Powers with
the same labor of the team. It is warranted to
hold 8 horses. u
I have also completed a combined THRESHER
AND CLEANER,!which is capable of Threshing
and Cleaning frem;3oo to 500 bushels of wheat per
doy, with from 6 to 8 Horses, and an equal number
of hands. 4 horses can thresh with it from 100 to?
200 bushels per day of wheat, and 400 to 500’of
oats. It is very convenient for those who follow
Threshing, and for two or more farmers to own in
j company; it is more convenient to move than any
I machine in use. The Machine stands on the wag
.on while threshirfg—the Power is loaded on the
same wagon in moving—two horses are sufficient
to move it.; It will save enough labor in threshing 1
2000 bushels to pay its extra cost. It will thresh I
in the field or by a stack as in a barn. The cylin- '
der and concave can readily be adjusted so as to
thresh with equal facility both tough and dry grain.
It is free from the complication and liability to, get
out of order of other machines of the kind, and of
less cost—price $lOO,OO.

E. W. %JBBB .MINERAL COMPOSITION
■■'
OrrE or the most
... ! ' •
THIS mineral compound i» found in the town of
Litchfield, Hdrkimer County, N.Y., ura gulf
about six hundred feet below the surface of the sur
rounding country*'' When taken from ila bed, it
presents! a beantiful' color resembling mahogany.
After a fair trial, it is pronounced by competent
judges to be for superior to the,Ohio paint. One of
its important components being red oxyde
an intelligent public will .readily see .Unit the d iffer
ent colors are more readily brought out by mixing
, alessquantity of o'her paints, than ifit were black
oxyde, getting a livelier color at less expense.—
Forming! a perfect, cement body,-a large .portion
being stiica, it bids defiance to the action of the
and is a great protection against the de
vouring element. . ‘ •
All the colors may be got up from this composi
tion, from a beautiful lead to a jet black, with less
than'half the expense of the usual way, forming a
harder coat, which is believed to be twice as val
uable. It is also susceptible of receiving a high
polish, and may be use for the finest kind of
i ORNAMENTAL PAINTING.
This composition will be found especially useful
for painting all kinds of outside, houses, steamboats,
ships, schooners, sloops, -&c., as it is wholly imper
vious to water, and less attractive to the rays of the
son than any other paint now in use.
In introducing this paint to the public, the pro
prietor flatters mmßelf that the superior advantages
he has in obtaining the raw material, it being pure
and taken from a bed one fifty feet in
height and being the finest and purest substance of
the. kind, or as much so as any in the world; and
in addition to that, exposed to action of tain and
frost, rendering it .constantly softer and purer, and
no pains shall/ be spared in manufacturing. After
testing its qualities they will- be satisfied it is notan
imposition upon their credulity, (of which there is
so much done at the present day,) but on the con
trary, the high commendation it received is suffi
cient to warrant its reception.
For cottages, of either wood or brick, this paint
cannot be too highly recommended. For Railroad
Depots, Bridges, Cars, and Public-Buildings of all
descriptions, it is invaluable. It is now being used
on the Atlantic Steamers and Packets, with great
satisfaction, and must- soon supersede all other
paint, for like purpose. For coach painting it is.
said to be a perfect desideratum, it being suscepti
ble to the highest polish, and forming a surfade as
hard as marble. For Farm Houses, Outßoildings,
Fences, Factories and Foundries, its value can
scarcely be calculated j its fire and weather proof
qualities have been thoroughly tested, and has found
favor with the public, so much so, that a building
covered with this paint will insure at Jess premium
than a building covered with other paint.
A few testimonials -are annexed of men who are
competent to judge:
This certifies, that having examined and subjected
to chemical action the Paint from the premises of
E. W. Fish, of Herkimer co., N.Y., I concur in
the above analysis j and-believe it to be capable of
forming the most durable coat of any substance now
used. M. C. Brown.
Columbia , if._Y.~Feb. 14, ,1851.
We hereby certify, that we have used in painting,
Fish’s Fire-proof Paint, and think it excels any
thing of the kind we ever used. We have painted
some of the best brick buildings’in Albany with it.
Covering’ welt-and giving a fine lustre, we think it
equal to white lead or better.

New York , Dec. 16, 1850,
I have used the New York Fire-proof Paint, from
the farm of Elias W.-Fisb, in Herkimer county, and
am well satisfied of its superiority for painting out
side of buildings, r«)oft, &c., &c.‘ I find it much
cheaper than other paints for the like purposes, as
it requires less oil, and covers better, and forms a
coat similar to slate. Radcltff Carman,

I hereby certify that I made use ot Fish’s Paint
last season in painting my house, and this spring
examined it, and found it held its color well and
became very hard and solid, fastening to the wood
and equal to any other paint

Brooklyn , November , 16M, 1860.
I have used and sold large quantities of the New
York Fire-proof Paint, from the Farm of Mr. E.
W. Fish, in Herkimer county, and am well satisfied
that it possesses qualities superior to Blake’s Fire
proof Paint, and superior to any similiar kind of
Paint now in this market and heretofore used by
our painters,'and besides, is afforded at a less price
than others that I consider inferior to it in quality.
Aaron Cragin, Painter.
Mohawk } March 25, 1851,
We hereby certify, that we have used in painting,
E. W. Fish’s Fire-proof Paint, and cheerfully re
commend it to the public as the most valuable paint
we have ever used, being in its native state a beau
tiful color for all outside painting, which may be
cheaply changed to almost any desired color, form
ing a heavier and harder coat than any other paint
now in use, J. A. & Jermain Clark,
I lully concur in the above, and will add, as a
body paint, where a white finish is desired, it is
unsurpassed, covering it completely.
, Horace Spekcer, Painter .
I hereby certify, that I used two barrels of E.
W. Fish’s Paint last fall. This spring on opening
of canal’ll ordered five ton of it. Being sa well
pleased with the article, I cheerfully recommend it
to the public as a very durable paint, and giving
strength to all other paints it is mixed with.

Houses, Corn Houses, Dairy, Ice House, platform
scales under cover, and all the usual conveniences
of a first-rate farm. Water is forced to the Dwel
