It transpired, also, tlat Sir Robert Teel had arrived at Loudon on the previ ous evening, and wa immediately called upon by the Chancellor of tbe Exchequer, The in terview lasted several hours. Sir Robert Feel nd his lady the following day went to Windsor Castle on i courtly visit to her Majesty,' all which wa deemed highly significant that some thing important was meditated. On Monday, Lord John Russell Usued an official document, recommending to "lbs Directors of the Bank of England, in Ihe present emergency, to enlarge Ike amount of their discounts and advances, upon approved security ; but that, jn order to retain this operation within reasonable limits, a high rate of interest should bs charged. In present circumstances they would suggest that the rats j of interest should not be less than 8 per cent. . If this course should lead to any infrir.gment of tbe j xistinj luw, her Majesty's government will be prepared to propose to Parliament on ita meet ing a bill of indemnity." 1'h Court of Directors of the Bank adopted the following resolutions : 'Resolved, That this Court do aeeed to ihe reeoQimendation contained in the letter from the First Lord of Ihe Treasury and the Chancellor of 'he Exchequer, dated Ibis day, and addressed to the Governor and Deputy (invernor of tbs Bank of England, which has jut been read.'

About two years since, we fiublian'ed t short sketch ofthe operation of Harvesting Machine, constructed by Mr. Andrew Y.

Jt Jakes three men to conduct trie Marbint, one jn front Jqregu. late the cutter ; one in the centre, as a general stiperintendsnt, and one behind to tie tbe bats ss they are filled, and drop them off. Mr. Moore says he cut 270 acres last harvest. Price of cut ting, S3 50 per acre. A The grain is harvested cleaner and more carefully, thsn by tbe old me thod. ' As soon ss the grain ia cut it is thrown hack on a platform 10 feet by 6. and then con densed er pressed to a space 4 feet squsre. It ia tben carried bp an inclined plane, by revol ving rakes, rnnning by endless chain gearing, w hicb conducts it to tbe thrashing cy lender, near the lop ot Ihe Machine, where it is thrashed. Tben it is thrown bark on the separator, which separates the grain from the straw, the straw falling behind the Machine, and tbe grain on the riddle, where the fans operate and clean it. Thence the grain is conveyed to a set of eleva tors, which carries it up into a spout, to which a bag is sttached to receive tbe grain. Tbe cost of constructing a Machine, Mr. Moore ays, is sbout SS0O. 1 be inventor, Mr. Miram Moore, of Michigan, be informed us is a mechan ic, a stone cutter, remarkable for his powers of ressoning ss well as mechanical skill.. There are only three machines constructed, Mr. A. Y Moore having built the first. The Marhine. when in operation, ia mounted with the Ameri can me, and attracts considerable attention. Frequently a half dozen of cairiages were seen in the field, some having travelled fiom 30 to 40 miles to witness its operations. The Harvesting Machine ia, of course, only calculated far the flat and even prairie lands of tbe West, where it affords a great saving of man ual labor, as well as convenience.
