EMERY'S NEW PATENT
THRESHER AND CLEANER
This a new Machine, and has not before been intro
duced into this region. It has no endless chain straw
carrier, but separates all kinds of gram thoroughly from
the straw, by a combination of Pitts' Endless Canvass
Celled Apron, a new Improved Revolving Picker, and
the well known Vibrating Riddle. It is a simple,durable
and efficient Machine, will thresh rapidly and clean thor
oughly, withont wasting, all kinds of grain. It will not
c-hoke, run easily aud steadily, without jumping, and is
warranted to be superior to the common Rake Cleaner
now in use. It remaius only to be seen and tested, to be
pronounced hv every experienced hand at threshing, to
be an admirably contrived and constructed Thresher and

CAUTION*.
" To be, or not to be— hat is the question !
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to sufler
The slings and arrows of outrageous opposition,
Or by taking up arms against a sea of printing ink,
And opposing, end them."
rpHE proprietor of the Argus takes occasion in adver
-L tising his Bindery to indulge in an uncalled for fling
about a " sort of a concern," which is hoping " to delude
the public." As I 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. T'aksons, and he
has taken great pains t • satisfy 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 1 have been engaged in a fraud, he lias been th
principal. But I refer to my work during that time a
evidence that there has been no frand practiced.
Having served a long apprenticeship at the Bindery
business, I have resumed business here on my own ac
count, as 1 know of nothing which prevents me from fol
lowing a legitimate and hawfnl calling for my support
i shall endeavor by good work and attention* to ray busi
ness to give public satisfaction.
