consequence of the scarcity.ofsnow, and un
"Jess we 'should hare considerable' winfcr, be

Proceedings or Cocrt. Court called on
Monday, and remained in session until Friday
night. Owing to the illness of his Honor,
Judge Burnside, but little business was trans
acted on Tuesday. In the Court of Common
Pleas there were only two cause j tried, and
they occupied near all the time the Court was
la session, viz:"."';"
James McMarrns vs." Frederick Fishel et al.
This was an action of ejectment to recover 40
acres of land, which was part of land ptir-
chased by FlfT. at Sheriff's sale as property of
George Snyder. The defendants alleged that
the land was embraced in a-purchase made by
Uorabangh, nnder whom they claimed, prior
, to Sherifl's sale. A verdict was rendered for
the Plaintiff for the premises, to be released
cn payment of $220. McEually and Linn for
Plff., V. A. & Ii. J. Wallace for Defts. "...
Mitchell & Mehafley vs. Salmon J. Tozer et
al. Ejectment for land surveyed on warrant to
Henry Musscr. S. J. Tozcr and D. Woods
limited their defence to the land embraced in
the John Carmody survey, and the other de
fendants to the land included in survey in
rjame of Henry B tiffin. Plaintiffs claimed un
der a sale for taxes in 1822. On the part of
defendants it was contended that the two tracts
were so loc ited there was no interference of
surveys ; if there was an interference, tho sale
for taxes did not convey title to the interfe
recce, and that they were protected by the
statute of limitations to the land contained
within their lines on the ground. Ycrdict for
' defendants. W. A. & R. J. Wallace for PltTs.
' Crans and Cnttle for defendants.
The following were also disposed of :
Geo. L. Reed vs. Wm. Martin. Defendant
' confessed judgment for tho premises. W. A.
& E. J. Wallace for P13., Crans for Deff.
John England vs. Crowther & Galer. De
Jendants confessed judgment as per statement
filed. Crans for PUT., Swoope for Deft.
Sorver & Co. vs. Michaels et al. Mction by
Deft, to set aside award of arbitrators. Award
aet aside. Swoope for Pills.; Crans for Deft.
. In tho matter of the application fcr removal
of the School Directors of Boggs township,
end an injunction to prevent the collection of
taxes assessed. The court set aside the appli
cation of removal at tho costs of com plain
ants, and decreed that so much of said tax as
was levied for building purposes should not be
-collected. The court held that School Direc
tors had no authority under the law to levy a
special tax for building purposes, and money
to be so used must be realized by loan.
In the Quarter Sessions. The Grand Jury
found two true bills, and returned two igno
ramus. Commonwealth vs. Cyrus Jeflries et al
Action for libel published concerning Harvey
Moore, prosecutor, was tried and a verdict for
defendants rendered.. McCulIough & Swoope

tho reason why the Democrats of tho Legislature

an '-Old Federalist," and opposed to the war, does
not relish celebrating the Battle of New Orleans.

riMIE NEW-YORK STEAM SAW-MILL
X AND MACHINE COMPANY. CAPITAL
? 250.000 This company has been organized with
the above capital for tho purpose cf supplying the
demnnd for the Comhiruition PORTABLE
STEAM SAW-MILL, and other Improved Ma
chinery. They have purchased the entire machine
ry business heretofore carriod on by J. M. Emer
son A C., also tho Monfgiiiuery works at Yonkers,
on the Hudson, near this city, and with tho expe
rience and facilities combined in its organization
are prepared to furnish machinery of all kiuds at
more liborat rates, than has ever been offered at
any other establishment.
THE COMBINATION SAW-MILL, was patented
October, 1S53, and is now generally acknowledged
to bo the cheapest, most practical, and efficient
lumber manufacturing machine in the world. A
large number cf them are in successful operation
in different sections of this country, Canada, Cuba,
and South America, and wherever their merits
have been tested they aro being adopted by lumber
manufacturers in preference to all other mills.
The following letter expresses the general opin
ion of those who are using the Combination Mill :
Messrs. Emecsox A Co Gentlemen : I have tried
tho saw-mill purchased of you, and will say that
it performs well, and more than iceots my expec
tations. I am well pleased with its performance.
I set it up on a small stream that afforded constant
water about as thick as my little finger, which was
much more than euScient to supply the boiler.
We are ablo to cut 3.000 feet of beautiful lumber in
12 hours, with something less than one cord of
wood. It is tho very thing we have needed in our
cour.ty for a long time. With a little trouble and
expense, we are ablo to move it from five to ten
miles per day, and set it up in the heart of the
timber, which saves the great burden of haulin;
the logs a long distance to the mill.
Yours, respectfully, Jepsk Kr.nr., Jrt.,
Louisville. Tennessee.
The Company have prrchased Lund's Patens
Fr'd Arrangement, which is illustrated and des- .
cribed in the -Scientific American' for October 24.
This adds greatly to the efficiency of the mill.
The Combination Mill, w ith a'll the recent im
provements, and steam power of fifteen horses, is
capable of sawing from ,1.000 to 4,000 feet in 1
hours. nd is sold for 1.650.
THE NEW YORK CIRCULAR SAW-MILL
Is manufactured only by this Company. It ia of
superior construction, and sold for 25 per cent less
than other mills of no greater capacity. A mill
"with 3(5 to 54-inch sawcan be sold for $150 to $500,
and with a 20 horse engine and boiler is sold for
52.200.
Steam Engines and Boilers ; Engines of from 1
to 100 horsepower; Locomotive, Tabular, Flu
and Cylinder Roilcrs furnished at greatly reduc

by experienced millers, both in this country and
