THE VIOLET AND THE ROSE
"Awake, my sister I" the low words came
From the bed where a young rose grew—
" Awake thee, my sister violet,
And open thindeyes of blue;
Shake the lovely dew from thy lovely head,
And thy pm-lulled borne unfold,
And rejoice like me in the blessed light
Of the morning's living gold.
All other fair buds are gazing out.
And wooing the shining sun,
And I hear the echo of sounding Met
It; the passing' breeze borne on;
Perchance some maiden may wander by,
And look on our place of rest •
And bear us away from our lowly home
To repose on her own fair breast.
Oh! bliss, to repose ou on lovely a couch,
And be gazed on by beauty's eye;
Oh! bliss, to be praised by her gentle vole,
And be fann'd by her fragrant sigh.
How lotig,must we dwell on the Aless earth
How long must we Huger here!
say, dont thou not pine fur a prouder lot!
!Answer me, sister hear."
A hint, sweet saund, like a lute's last note.
On the morning's stillness broke,
And the air was stlrr'd with au odorous breath,
As the meek young_ylolet spoke
'There's a quiet bliss in our own green vale,
And I love its calm beauty well;
There's a joy, there's ajoy in wieh passing hroozr—
'Tie a home where I love to dwell.
Our roof is tho azure vault of heaven,
Our food is the dewdrops bright,
The sun throwb its beams ou our path by day,
And the stars are our lamps by night,
We sprung up 'mid odor and bloom and light,
We are wood by the minstrel wind—
Here rest then, dear rose, in thine own sweet home
For a fairer thou can'st not find."
But the rose still pined for a prouder lot,
•
And it pined.not long in vain,
For a maiden, with cheek liko its own red leaf
Came dancing o'er the plain :
She gae'd on its hue with admiring eye.
And she praised it with gentle voice,
Acid pined in her bosom of spotless white.
Oh! then did the rose rejoice.
A few brief hours of light and joy.
And the flower was all forgot,
And it long'd,again for its quiet home,
For it saw it was heeded not ;
It withered apace In its high abode.
grtnotic'd by beauty's eye,
'And when the dim shadows of twilight came,
'Twas cast on its home to dio.
The violet still lived in its loneliness,
And tho moon one, the stars look'd down, ,
And silver'd the misty Tell of dew,
That the even had over it thrown;
The zephyr?: wooed it,and sportively struve
Its oflorous breath to share,
Whilst they turned aside from the faded thee,
And left it to perish there.
Thus thou may'stlearn, from a simple flower.
A lesson thy course to guide:—
Then cling to the bliss of thy quiet home,
And dream. not of wealth and pride: .
And, oh! when ambition would taint thy soul
Or thou sighesl for pomp and state,
Think thou ofthe lowly 'violet's lot
And remember tile rose's fate,
A STRIOGE CHARACTER
A Baltimore correspondent of.the N. 0
Picayune, writes as follows :
Some months ago, I remember having
given you in one of my letters, a brief
sketch of a most singular personage who
resides in Baltimore county, some fourteen
miles from Baltimore. I then did not
know his name. A few evenings ago, I had
the pleasure of meeting and conversing
with this very strange personage.
His name is Henry Ottmer. He was
born some fifty-two years ago in Somerset
county, Pa., of Germa i n parentage. He
came to Baltimore when a boy, and served
an apprenticeship to a watchmaker. Work
ing in this city until beyond his majority,
• he got sick of city life and retired to the
country. Having a taste for study, and
with only a rude education, he applied him
self to books. The taste for literature and
science grew upon him, and ever since
he has been a laborious student. Solitary
and alone he toiled day and night until he
accomplished a thorough knowledge of La
tin, Greek, French, Hebrew, German, and
and several other languages. This done,
he betook himself to history, the sciences,
&c., and now ranks amongst the best schol
ars of the ago. His present favorite study
is mathematics, and admits of but two pro
blems which have given him pause. These,
are squaring the circle, and the solution of
cubic y .eauations. He is an astronomer,
philosopher, chemist, poet, mechanic math
ematician and somewhat of a theologian.
In my whole: life I have never seen such a
singular personage. He lives in a small
isolated cottag, apart from society. Peter
the hermit was not so thorough a recluse,
nor lliognes more leatned. He rather es
chews women, lives a bachelor, has a fine
library of the classics and modern litera
ture, and is happy beyond measure.. His
expression to me was that he would not ex
change positions with the most favored
crowned heads of Europe. He professes
no religion, but respects all, and takes the
Bible alone as his guide and standard of
morality.
His personal appearance is remarkably
singular. Scarcely a hair can be seen on
his head, which shines like a greased pump
kin. Beneath a high, intellectual forehead
and a projecting brow is seen a small, quick,
penetrating black eye, full of character
and intelligence. He never shaves, has a
fine moustache and ample whiskers, with a
face vivid with expression. Deep thought
and incessant study are impressed upon his
countenance, with all of which there are
scintillations of - keen sarcastic wit, control
led by fixed judgment. His entire costume
would not sell for ten dimes, if put at pub
lic auction. A passer-by would suppose
him a poor medicant, and be inclined to ex
tend the hand of charity, and yet he is
comfortable in this world's goods ; owes no
man a farthing, is independent as a king,
happy as a lord. His food is literature,
and his delight the classics. He visits Bal
timore about twelve times a year, always
alone, generally arriving in the afternoon
and departing at night., When seen, it will
be in a back store, amongst musty literary
archives. His latest effort has been to
study phonography, so as to use it practi
cally and with ease in taking. notes. He
is, by profession, a skilful repairer of clocks,
and after finding his funds getting low, sets
out on an expedition through the country
on a professional, tour of plock-mending.—
If you can start us such a personage in
Itonisianna,send him on.
THE WINTER OF THE HEART.
Let it never comeupon you. Live so that
good angels may protect you from this ter
rible evil—the winter of the heart.
Let no chilling influence freeze the foun
tains of sympathy and happiness in its
depths ; no cold burthen settle over its
withered hopes, like snow on the faded
flower; no rude blasts or discontented
moan and shrink through its desolate
chambers.
Your life pathmay, lead you through
trials, which for a time seem utterly to
;impede your'progress, and shut the very
light of Heaven from your anxious gaze.
Penury may take place of ease and plen
ty.; your luxurous room may be exchanged
for a single lowly - room—the soft couch
for a straw pallet—the rich viands for the
course food of the poor. Summer friends
may forsake you, with scarcely a look or
word of compassion.
You may be forced to toil wearily, stead
ily on to earn a livelihood ; you may en
counter fraud and the base avarice that
Would extort the last farthing,till you well
nigh turn in disgust from your fellow be
ings.
Death may sever the dear ties that bind
you to earth, and leave you in tearful dark
ness.. That noble, manly boy, the sole
hope of your declining years may be taken
from you, while your spirit clings to him
with a wild tenacity, which even the sha
dow of the tomb cannot wholly subdue.
But amid all these sorrows, do not come
to the conclusion that nobody was ever so
deeply afflicted as you are, and abandon
every anticipation of "bettor days" in the
unknown future.
Do _not lose your faith in human excel
lence, because your confidence has some
times been betrayed, nor believe that
friendship is only a delusion, anti love a
bright phantom which glides away from
your grasp.
Do not think you are fated to be miser
able because you are dis - appointed in your
expectations, and baffled in your pursuit.
Do not declare that God has forsakes you
when your way is hedged about with thorns
or repine sinfully when he calls your dear
ones to the land beyond the grave.
Keep a holy trust in Heaven through
every trial ; bear adversity with fortitude,
and look up in hours of temptation and
suffering. When your locks are white,
your eyes dim, and your limbs weary ;
when your steps falter on the steps of a
death's gloomy vale, still retain the fresh
ness and buoyawy of spirit which will
shield you. from the winter of the heart.
SPEECH OF ZACHARIAH SPICER.
On the question, "Which enjoys the
greatest amount of happiness, the bachelor
or the married man ?'
- Mr. President and Gentlemen—l rise to
advocate the rights,of a married man.—
And why should I not? I claim to know
something about the institution, I do. will
any gentleman pretend to say I do not?
Let them accompany me home. Let me
confront him with my wife and seventeen
'children, and decide.
High as the Hockey mountains tower
above the Mississippi Valley does the char
acter of the married man tower above that
of the bachelor. What is a bachelor?
What was Adam before he got acquainted
with Eve? What but a poor, shiftless, in
significant creature? No more to be com
pared to his after-self, than a mill to the
great roaring cataract of Niagara. [Ap
plause.]
Gentlemen, there was a time—l blush to
say it—when I'too was a Bachelor ; and a
more miserable creature you would hardly
expect to find. Every day I toiled hard,
and at night I came to my comfortless gar
ret—no carpet, no fire, no nothing. Eve
rything was in a cluster, and in the words
of the poet
-Confusion was monarch of all I surveyed. -
Here lay a pair of pants, there a dirty
pair of boots, there a play bill, and here a
pile of dirty clothes. Why wonder that I
took refuge at the gaming table and bar
room? I found it would not do, gentlemen,
and in a lucky moment I vowed I would
reform. Scarcely had the promise passed
my lips, when a knock was heard at the
door and in came Susan Simpkins after my
dirty clothes.
"Mr. Spicer" says she, .4I have washed
for you these six months and haven't seen
the first red cent in the way of payment.—
Now I'd like to know what you are going
to de about it ?"
I felt in my pocket book. There was
nothing in it, and I knew it well enough.
"Miss Simpkins," says I, "it's no use de
nying it. I havn't got the pewter. I wish
for your sake I had."
"There," said she promptly, "I don't
wash anoter rag for you."
"Stop," said. I, "Susan, I will do what
I can for you. Silver and gold I have
none; but if my heart and hand will do
they are at your service."
"Are you in earnest ?" says she, looking
a little suspicious.
"Never more so," says I.
"Then," says she, "as there seems to be
no prospect of getting my pay any other
way, I guess I'll take up with your offer."
"Enough said." We were married in a
week 3 and what's more we havn't repented
it. No m*e attics for me gentlemen. I
live in a good' house, and have somebody
to mend my clothes. When I Was a poor,
miserable bachelor, gentlemen ; I used to
be as thin as a weasel. Now lam as plump
as a porker.
conclusion;ln 'gentlemen, if you want to
be a poor, raggd devil without a coat to
your back or a shoe to your foot; if you
want to grow' old before your time, and as
uncomfortable, generally, as a "hedgehog
rolled up the wrong way," I advise you to
remain a bachelor; but if you want to live
decently and respectably, get married.—
I've gotten daughters, gentlemen, (over
powering applause,) and you may have
your pick.
Mr. Spicer sat down amid long continued
plaudits. The generous proposal with
which he concluded, secured him five sons
in-law.
THE TRUE WIFE
She is no true wife who sustains not her
husband in the day of calamity, who is
not, when the world's great froWn makes
the heart chill with-anguish, his guardian
angel, growing brighter and more beauti
ful as misfortunes crowd along his path ;
Then is the time for trial of.her gentleness,
then is the time for 'testing whether the
sweetness of her temper' beamS only with

cannot touch our purity, and should not
quench our love V' Does she try, by
happy tittle inventions, to lift from his sen
sitive spirit the burthen of thought ?
There are wives—nay, there are beings
who, when dark hours come, fall to repin
ing and upbraiding—thus adding to out
side anxiety the harrowing scenes of do
mestic strife—as if all the blame in the
world would make ‘.:te hair white or black,
or change the decree gone forth. Such
know not that our darkness is Heaven's
light ; our trials an but steps in a golden
ladder, by which, if we rightly ascend, we
may at last gain t! at eternal light, and
bathe forever in its fullness and beauty.
"Is that all ?" an 1 the gentle face of the
wife beamed with joy. Her husband had
been on the verge of distraction—all his
earthly possessions were gone, and he fear
ed the result - of her knowledge, she had
been so tenderly cared for all her life !
But, says Irving's beautiful story; "a
friend advised him to give not sleep to his
eyes nor slumber to his eyelids until he
had unfolded to her all his hapless case."
And that was her answer, with the
smile of an angel—"ls that all I feared
by your sadness it was worse. Let these
beautiful things be taken—all this splen
dor, let it go ; I care not for it—l only
care for my husband's love and confidence.
You shall forget in my-affection that you
were ever in prosperity—only still love me,
and I will aid you to bear these little re
verses with cheerfulness."
Still love her ! she a man must reverence,
ay,e and liken her to the very angels, for
such a woman is a revelation from Heaven.
CHINA.—The last advices from China
look decidedly favorable for the insurgents.
They are besieging Canton with vigor, and
the prospect was that they would take the
city. At the same time their army was
swarming towards the imperial capital,
without much regard to military strategy
in maintaining their communications in the .
rear, but much in the manner that the
hordes of Alaric overrun the Roman empire
in the fifth century. The capital is be
leaguered by them, and is expected to
be taken. Many of Southern provin
ces are in the hands of the insurgents, and
they have now held possession of the city
of Shanghai for fifteen months. From this
post the French, who have unwisely be
come embroiled with the insurgents, have
been ingloriously repulsed for a second
time. The attacking party consisted of
1500 Imperialists, 250 French marines and
sailors, and a French frigate and steamer.
It does not speak very well for French
prowess thbt they should thus, for a second
time, meet with defeat at the hands of such
a "rabble crew" (fur they appear to be en
tirely devoid of discipline) as the Chinese
insurgents.
Dates from Shanghai are to the 16th of
January. On the 6th the French attempted
to storm the city. Two hundred men land
ed from the French ships and effected a
breach, the steamers Jeanne d'Arc and
Colbert cannonading the city at the same
time. Two detachments of the French
succeeded in mounting the breach, but
were exposed to a severe fire from the
houses. A party rushed on and planted
the French flag upon the north gate, but
just then great confusion ensued from a
party of "Imperialists entering the breach
and attempting to scale the walls. The
French had to retire and regained the
breach, when the cad wash sounded. The
French lost fifteen ;.-lied and thirty-seven
wounded. Admiral Laguerre awaits rein
forcements to resume operations.
RARE INSTANCE ( LONGEVITY.—The
following article, wi ch we clip from the
Lewisburg Chronicl possesses a local in
terest which may b interesting to our
readers :
Died at the house of her son, George
K. Smith, in Selinsgrove, Pa., the 15th
of March, 1855, Widow Rebecca Smith,
lacking. but two months of being one hun
dred and twenty-five years of age. Her
birth is identifid by a Record in a Tes
tament, copied by the family physician,
Dr. Sample, (since deceased) from the
Records of the Thomas family, of Haver
de-grace, Maryland, where her birth is
recorded in May, 1830. She was a slive
in that family, but ith her husband ob
tained her freedom, and about the year
1800 removed, with Dr. Sample and other
families to Strasburg, Lancaster co., Pa.
She had four children, born at intervals
of ten to twelve years, the last of which
she bore when over ninety years old. She
retained her senses almost perfectly until
The end of life, and sustained herself, by
ordinary household labor, until last De
cember, when her. strength began to fail,
and she gradually died with no particular
disease manifesting itself. She had the
usual characteristics of longevit ,: y, laving
descended from long-lived parents, was
"early to bed and early to rise," a moder
ate eater, strictly temperate in all things,
and never sleeping in a room with a fire.
She united with the Methodists, upon the
first organization of that denomination in
America.
The birth of Mrs. S. was by the ac
count two years before that of Washing
ton, and she was full a quarter of a cen
tury old at the defeat of Braddock.. She
was much older than the United States—
older than the Methodist denomination ;
and a thousand events, to which we look
as "far up the stream of time," were to
her but as paits and parcels of her own
history—only "things of yesterday!"
ADVICE TO YOUNG LADlES.—Clandestine
courtships are not only dishonorable and
uncertain as to their results, but a base
fraud upon the confidence of parents.—
They are in all aspects discreditable, be
cause, however pure or sincere, the con
cealment implies a doubt of the integrity
of one of the parties. Either the man is
ashamed of the woman, or the woman of
the -man, or somebody, interested, is asha
med of one or the other of them, or they
design to deceive a confiding parent or
guardian ; but look at it in any way, or
light, the proceeding is disreputable. The
young woman compromises her reputation
—for cipeople will talk," scandal will ori
ginate, and society," detesting secrecy in
-affairs of-the heart,. is prone to be censori
ous; and the man, if not restrained by some
purity of principle, is over ready to regard
the woman with-suspicion, at least. They
think,. with . Brabantio, that if a _girl de
ceives her parents, she will deceive others.
So,-girls, have a care. that in attempting
to:deceive , -others, you, are not yoniseivea
deceived.
i FARMERS' DEPARTMENT•
• WHAT ROOTS,SHALL WE RAISE
find in a late number of the• Country Gen
tleman, the following, emphatic answer to
this question, whioh every farmer is now
about to ask himself, - a'l3 the period 're-opens
for farming operations. It is valuuble
this time, as being "in season," and as the
authority on which it is based is among
the best that can be obtained. WC quote
the whole 'article :
Those who have grown roots of various
kinds for many years, may have no difi
culty in answering this question. But
there are many farmers, both young ad
old, who have but little experence in grow-
ing root crops. And as all who have made
trial of roots whether for sheep, milch I
cows, cattle, or horses, are disposed, so fir
as we heard any expression of opinion,
continue and enlarge the cultivation of
them, there must be many who are now, or
soon will be, putting the above question o
themselves. To assist such in determining
the question profitably, we would submiti a
few statements which seem to go fark
wards securing a prominent, or perhaps the
foremost, place to the best in some or' all
its varieties.
Turnips are raised to a greater extei,
both in Great Britain and in this countr,
than any other kind of roots, except, pe -
haps, potatoes. But water enters very
largely into their composition, so as to de
tract from the nutritive qualities. We
were not aware of the great superinrity of
beets over turnips until we met with the
following statement made by a reliable ail
thority—Dr. Thomas Anderson, Chemikt
to the Highland and Agricultural Socie'ry
of Scotland. In the number of the Trans
actions or Journal of that Society for Mardh,
1854, Dr. A. states that ha had analysed
a crop of mangold wurzel grown by la.
' Telfer, of Ayr, (a model farmer,) amount
ing to 34 tons per acre, and ascertained )oy
that analysis that the nutritive matter pio
duced exceeded two and a half times that
of a good, and three and a half times that
of an average crop of turnips.
Mr. A. Y: Moore, President of the Stite
Agricultural Society of Michigan, states
that the kind of root which has produeo
the greatest quantity of milk With him, is
the sugar beet.
Others have found the sugar beets of
superior value so much so, that one farmer
within our knowledge has raised them al a
field crop for a great many years. He s4ys
they yield as abundantly as any other root,
and are, at the same time, more nutritive
than any other, with the exception of
cai
rots. He, too, thinks they are superior
for mileh cows to any other root or vege
tuble whatever. He informs us that bid
ter made in winter from cows fed on this
root in addition to their dry feed ofilh#,
is nearly as great in quantity as in the
fall, and of nearly, it' not quite, as rich a
color and quality.
To secure a' good crop of beets, espek
ally of the white Silesian, the seed should
be soaked, as otherwise they will germinite
slowly, or not at all in very dry weather;
the soil should be deeply plowed and will
pulverized; the rows 3 feet 'apart to ad*it
of easy cultivation between Viem.

TREES FROM SEED.-A few years
we made
. a large collection of the seeds

ous and evergreen, and planted with le,
care, but did not get a seed to vegetl
This season we have found out what
the matter; we planted too deep. 11

Georgia this has been a great mast y&
and we now find everywhere where
winged seeds have met the surface of
soil, they have thrown out root, and be;
the form of a tree. They had no plant
but what nature gave them, and dame
ture is a tolerable hortioulturalist.
We invariably plant tree seed; just :oil
enough to preserve the moisture is all hat
is necessary. , 1
An ornamental• tree grown from deed,
may be made anything the cultivatdr Nrish
es it. A fruit tree grown by seed is most
likely to be healthy, and may prove a 4ure
and valuable variety. It has been a clues
tion of time with mdst of us; we couldnot
wait for tree seeds to form trees. A ine
seed will make boards in twelve years.
Apple seeds will make fruit trees in ve
years. Grapes in eight and ten yeaf .
Peaches and plums in two years. I The

A PREDICTION MADE BY DR. DUNCAN,
TEN YEARS AGO FULFILLED.—The late
Dr. DUNCAN, of Cincinnati, who was well
known all over the nation as a. throughgo
ing and indefatigable Demoerat, ten years
ago made a speech in the •House of Repre
sentatives that contained a prediction which
is now in the process of fulfillment. Said
Dr. DUNCAN, in a spirit of prophecy,
speaking of the Whig party :
"I begin with the unprincipled practice
they have of changing their name. They
have changed their name with the periodi
cal return of every Presidential election,
and this for the purpose of concealing their
principles and deceiving the people. Their
last name was whig, and that name they
kept as long as it would answer any pur
pose ; but they will never fight another bat
tle under the banner inscribed Whig, again.
Having exhausted the political vocabulary,
they will return to the abuse and persecu
cution of the Trish and Germans which
characterized the party in the administra
tion of the elder Adams. Nothing is long
er to be feared from a changeof 'name.—
The people contemplate them as they do a
stranger, who - gives himself a. new or dif
ferent name in every town or village
through which he passes."
A MODEL Dux.—An editor out West
thus talks to his non-paying subscribers
and patrons. If his appeal does not bring
the "pewter," we think he need never try
again !
ccFrzeniis, Patrons, Subscribers and
rkevertisers: Hear us for our debts, and
get ready that you may pay ; trust us, we
are in need and have great regard for our
need, for you have been long trusted; ac
knowledge your indebtedness, and dive
into your pockets, that you may promptly
fork over. If there be any among you,
one 'single patron that don't owe us some
thing, then to him we say—step. aside :
consider yourself a gentleman. If the rest
wish to know why we dun theta, this is
our answer : Not that we care about cash,
ourselves, but our creditors do. Would
you rather that we go to jail ands you go
free, than you pay your debts, and we all
keep moving ? As we agreed, we have
furnished our paper to you : as we prothised
we have waited upon, but as you don't pay,
we dun you! Here are agreements for
job work :-contracts for subscription:
promises for long credits and duns,for de
ferred payment.—Who is there so mean
that he don't take a paper ? If any, he
needn't speak—we don't mean him. Who
is there so green that he don't advertise ?
If any let him slide—he ain't the chap
either. Who is so bad that he don't pay
the printer? If any let him shout—for he's
the man we're after. His name is LEGION,
ON, and he's been owing, us for one, two,
three, four, five, six, seven, and eight
years—long enough to make us poor, and
himself rich at our expense. If the above
appeal to his conscience doesn't awake
him to a sense of justice, we shall have to
try the law and see what virtue there is in
writs and constables:"
CURIOUS FACTS CONCERNIG DYSPEPSIA.
—The effect of mental disquietude in pro
ducing this prevalent. complaint, is far
greater than is supposed. It is well known
that persons in good health, of sound di
gestive organs, who take plenty of exercise,
and are free from anxiety, may eat almost
anything and in quantities that would kill.
those in different circumstances. In ref
erence to this point, Dr. Brigham, an Eng
lish medical writer observes : " We do not
find dyspepsia prevalent in countries where
the people do eat most enormously. Trav
ellers in Siberia say that the people there
often eat forty pounds of food in one day.
Admiral Scripchoff saw a Siberian pat,
directly after breakfast, twenty-five potinds
of boiled rice, with three pounds of butter.
But dyspepsia is not a common 'disease in
Siberia. We do no,t learn from Capt. Par
ry, or Capt. Lyon, the Arctic travellers,
that their friends, the Esquimaux, are ve
ry nervous and dyspeptic, though they in
dividually eat ten or twelve pounds of solid
food per day, washing it down with a gal
lon or so of train oil. Capt. Lyon was to be
sure, concerned for a delicate young la
dy Esquimaux, who ate her candles, wicks
and all, yet he does not allude to her ina
bility to digest them." '

A new it-Mare has been opened up in the manufacture
of Flour, whichniust we think at once revolutionize the
old peocess, and to into use. all over the land. Ily the in
genuity and skill of Edwin al Janes 31. Clark, they have
brought about a complete Merchant Flouring .11111 which
is adapted to the wants of the whole world, and wtieh is
applicable to every locality. By this invention, the monop
oly of milling heretofore carried on by heavy capitalists Is
completely broken up, and a complete Merchant Flytiriug
.11111 is brought within the reach of any person having
few hundred dollars. The consequence of which will la.—
hundreds and thousands ~,fthese Flooring Mills will be
put in operation in all parts of the Union; it being !moll
mble to any power, front afor-liorse up to any other de
sired. It can be placed in a room with other machinery,
and the small space it occupies hot ,to h e missed—beteg on
ly 21 feet long by 4 feet wide. embracing 'within this small
compass all the machinery, and turning out two barrels of
supertine Flour per hour. It is perfectly portable, a horse
and dray. at a single load,being capable or hauling it from
one lac:Ulm' to another; thus making it truly tiro most val
uable discovery 01 the present age.
It can be seen in fullioperation at the Barrel lactory.on

that 1 believe it to be a valuable Improvement in the con

which I held In my hand, and making . kiour of a superior

small expense requisite to put up a Mill of that alter
the power to propel it is obtained, strongly recommends it
to the attention of those about to erect a Flouring Still.
3d. Te those engaged in the milling business, 1 would
respectfully say, thaitheimprovement isswell worthy their
attention, from the fact that the mill referred to Is capable
of perfortniug double or treble the Work. usually dons In
common grist mills, with less or no mgrs power than they
now use in their mills—and lastly, on o..cliose inspection of
the mills and Its operation, I was satisfied that it was ca.-
