EMERY'S NEW PATENT
'HRESHER AND CLEANER
This a new Machine, and has not before been intro-j

earlier, but separates all kinds of grain thoroughly from j
the straw, by a combination of Pitts' Endic-- Canvass
Celled Apron, a new improved Revolving Picker, and
the well known Vibrating Riddle, ft is a simple,durable
and efficient M ichine. will thresh rapidly and cl an thor
oughly, without wasting, ali kinds ol grain. It will not
choke, run easily and steadily, without jumping, and is
warranted to be superior to the common Rake Cleaner
now in use. It remains only to be -een and tested, to be
pronounced by every experienced hand at threshing, to |
be an admirably contrived and constructed I'm usher and :
Cleaner.

CAUTION.
"To be. or not to be— hat is the question !
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous apposition.
Or by taking up arms against a sea of printing ink,
And opposing, end them."
j r I"MiE proprietor of the Argus takes o casion in ndver
I tising his Bindery to
about a " sort of a concern,'' which is imping to delude
the public." As I have opened a Bindery on my own ac
i count, the inference is that if the public bring their
! binding to me, they are in no danger of being defrauded.
For tiro years I have worked for Mr. I'aksons, aud lie
has taken great pains t satisfy the public I was the " best
: Binder in America," as the columns of the Argus wil
testify. Has be been all that time " deluding the pub
' lie?'' If I have been engaged in a fraud, he has been tit
principal. Bat I refer to my work during that time a
evidence that there lias been no (rand practiced.
Having served a long apprenticeship at the Bindery
business, 1 have resumed business here on my own ac
count,as 1 know of nothing which prevents me from fol
lowing a legitimate and bawful calling for my support
! shall endeavor by good work and attention to my busi
ness to give public satisfaction.
