Instrumental Music will not, as heretofore, be tanght in

be taught in a hall adjoining the grounds of the Institute,
by the Teacher of Vocal Music.

It is strongly recommended that students from abroad
should board in the Institution, as better opportunities
for advancement in study are thereby secured.
XormtU Department —Special exercises arc arranged
without extra charge for those preparing themselves as
Teachers of Common Schools. Prof. U. CO BURN, the
able and well known Superintend! Nt of Common Schools
in the county, has kindly consented to organize the Tea
cher's class, and direct the course to tie pursued.
He will also be present- to conduct its exercises as often
as practicable, and will deliver frequent lectures on the
Theory and Practice of Teaching, as also on other subjects
oonnected with Normal training.
Those persons, therefore, intending to engage in teach
ing for the winter, will find it greatly to their advantage
to be present during the Full term.
Prof. Column's connection with the institution is not
such as to in any way interfere with the discharge of the
regular duties of his office.
No pains will he spared, on the part of the Faculty and
Trustees in sustaining the high repnlatation the institu
tion has hitherto enjoyed, and in rendering it more wor

Celebrated Threshing Machines,
EMERY'S ONE AND TWO HORSE POWERS, are
too well and popularly known to need any description
from me, and I will only say that they continue to de
serve the reputation they have enjoyed for ten years, of
being the " best Endless Chain Horse Power in use.
These Powers possess conveniences and advantages 1 >0S "
•eased by no other power.
EMERY'S NEW PATENT
THRESHER AND CLEANER
This a new Machine, and lias not before been intro
duced into this region. It lias no endless chain straw
carrier, but separates all kinds of grain thoroughly from
the straw, by a combination of Pitts' Endless Canvass
Celled Apron, a new Improved Revolving Pirker, and
the w ell known Vibrating Riddle. It is a simple,durable
and efficient Machine, will thresh rapidly and clean thor
oughly, without wasting, all kinds of grain. It will not
choke, ran easily and steadily, without jumping, and is
warranted to be superior to the common Rake Cleaner
now in use. It remains only to be seen and tested, to lie
pronounced by every experienced hand at threshing, to
be an admirably contrived and constructed Thresher and
Cleaner.
EMERY'S IMPROVED THRESHERS & SEPARATERS,
ure not excelled by any in market, are well constructed,

CAUTION.
" To he, or not to be— hat is the question 1
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous opposition.
Or by taking up arms against a sea of printing ink,
i And opposing, end them."
! CIIHE proprietor of the Argus takes occasion inadver-
X Using his Bindery to indulge in an uncalled for fling
! about a " sort of a concern,' - which is hoping " to delude
| the public.'' As 1 have opened a Bindery on my own ac
; count, the inference is that if the public bring their
binding to me, they are in no danger of being defrauded.
For two years I have worked for Mr. I' ARSONS, and he
lias taken great pains t * sat isfy the public I was the " best
Binder in America,"'as the columns of the Argus wil
testify. Has he been all that time " deluding the pub
lie ?" If i have been engaged in a fraud, he has been th
principal. But 1 refer to my work during that time a
evidence that there has been no fraud practiced.
Having served a long apprenticeship at the Bindery
! business, 1 have resumed business here on my ownac
i count, as I know of nothing which prevents me from fol
lowing a legitimate and bawful calling for ray support.—
! 1 shall endeavor by good work aud attention to my busi-
I ness to give public satisfaction.
