PUBLIC AUCTION.
To be sold, at public auction, at Northum- berland court-house, in the county of Nor-
thumberland, and state of Virginia, on
TUESDAY, the fifth day of September
next, at eleven o'clock, in the forenoon,
Five contiguous Plantations,
Amounting together to about 2700 Acres,
SITUATE on the river Potomac, and
within about three miles of the court-
house. These estates formerly belonged to
Presley Thornton, Esq. and are the same on
which he lived. They have never been seen
by either of the subscribers; but it is under-
stood, that about 1700 acres of them are as
valuable low grounds as any on the river, and
a considerable part thereof heavily timbered.
The uplands consist of about 1000 acres, and
the whole is well calculated for the production
of corn, wheat, tobacco, timothy, and small
grain of all kinds, in great abundance. The
waters are said to abound with excellent
fish, oysters, and wild fowl. The water car- riage is easy and convenient to Norfolk, Bal- timore, Alexandria, and the city of Wash- ington; and as these estates possess several good mill seats, with an abundance of water, and a plentiful supply of timber, they must be very valuable.
The premises will be shown to persons in- clining to purchase, by Col. James Moore, who lives on them, or by Samuel Blackwell, Esq. who lives near to them; and the terms of payment may be known a sufficient time before the sale, by applying to either of them, or to the subscriber in the city of Philadel- phia.

POETRY.
The following beautiful lines were written by Dr. JOHN OGILVIE, the father of the gentleman who gave such a display of oratory in Philadelphia last autumn.
ODE TO INNOCENCE.
By the Rev. Doctor John Ogilvie.
'Twas when the slow declining ray, Had ting'd the cloud with ev'ning gold, No warbler pour'd the melting lay, No sound disturb'd the sleeping fold, When by a murm'ring rill reclind Sat wrapt in thought a murm'ring swain: Calm peace compos'd his musing mind; And thus he rais'd the flowing strain: Hail INNOCENCE! celestial maid! What joys thy blu-ling charms reveal; Sweet, as the arbour's cooling shade, And milder than the vernal gale. On Thee attends a radiant choir, Soft smiling Peace and downy Rest; With Love, that prompts the warbling lyre, And Hope that soothes the throbbing east. O sent from Heav'n to haunt the grove, Where squinting Envy ne'er can come. Nor pines the cheek with kiss'd Love, Nor Anguish calls the living bloom. But spotless Beauty, rob'd in white, Sits on yon moss-grown mill reclin'd; Serene as Heav'n's unsullied night, And pure as Delia's gentle mind. Grant, Heav'nly Power, thy peaceful sway, May still my ruder thoughts control; Thy hand to point my dubious way, Thy voice to sooth the melting soul. Far in the shady sweet retire Let thought be-ude the lin'ring hour; Let Quiet court the mossy seat, And twining olives form the bow'r!
Let dove-eyed Peace her wreath bestow, And oft sit list'ning in the dale. While night's sweet warbler from the bough Tells to the grove her plaintive tale.
Soft as in Delia's snowy breast, Let each consenting passion move; Let Angels watch his silent rest, And all its blissful dreams be Love."
From the BOSTON GAZETTE.
After the events in Bavaria , which have been narrated in the French bulletins, the archduke Charles , it appears to be a strong position behind the Regen , and in the high lands which divide Bavaria from Bohemia ; where he had collected a force, it was said, of 160,000; and having the fertile kingdom of Bohemia behind him. The French bulletins state, that the Duke of au rstadt , ( Davoust ) was advancing upon the archduke's position; while other corps of the French grand army were descending the Danube , and penetrating into Austria . The emperor of Austria had ordered that his army of reserve would assemble at Lintz . A reference to the maps will shew the positions assumed by the contending armies to be highly interesting and which must speedily produce very important military results.
There are chasms in the files of paper received from England : But it appears from the editorial recapitulations, that some events favorable to Austria had occurred in the Tyrol : and that a corps of the Austrian army had taken possession of Waraw the capital of ci-devant Poland , now belonging to Bonaparte's ally, the king of Saxony . Our French papers mentioned the advance of the archduke Ferdinand towards Poland . It may be asked, would Austria carry the war so far north, if she were not assured of the connivance or assistance of Russia ?
The success of the allied English and Portuguese arms over the French in Portugal is corroborated. It is stated, that after the capture of Oporto (13th of May) and many bloody contests, the remains of the French army under Soult , (variously estimated from 10,000 to 25,000) had been compelled to capitulate, though he himself had effected his escape. We have not yet seen any official account of this surrender, though Lisbon papers to the 5th June have been received; but it is certain very great rejoicings and illuminations had taken place at Lisbon on account of some brilliant success of the allied arms; and it is added that during the season of celebration, the joy was changed to alarm, by a report that the French corps from Estramadura , in Spain , was penetrating into Portugal , and was in full march for Lisbon . At the last dates, however, it was stated, that the French had receded, after learning the fate of their countrymen in the north of Portugal . The corps which thus menaced Lisbon , was pro-
bably that which advanced through Estramadura , under general Victor , towards Seville , and which afterwards, it was said, fell back on the Guadiana . The account of the re-occupation of Oporto by the Portuguese, it will be recollected, reached us some days since.
From the Philadelphia Gazette.
[TRANSLATION.]
We are authorised to announce to the merchants of the United States that American flour will not be admitted into the port of Maracaybo, as will be seen by the following letter from the governor of that place, to his excellency the chevalier de Foronda, dated May 22, 1809.
"The American nation expected to do us an injury by depriving us of its commerce; but they will now know that this prohibition has only served to make us acquainted with our own resources, and to the great injury of the principal branches of the American commerce. For the want of American imports, we have had to resort to our own produce. For two years past we have been consuming no other than that of this province; and in the ensuing year, we expect the harvest will be so abundant as to enable us to export a considerable overplus; and to give all possible encouragement to the cultivation of wheat, this city has demanded that the introduction of American flour should be prohibited, which request has been granted by the government. Your excellency, if you think proper, may give notice accordingly to the American merchants."
BY THE LAST MAIL.
NEW-YORK, July 13.
Fresh advices from Europe.
The following important intelligence was received at the office of the Mercantile Advertiser yesterday, via Boston, in anticipation of the regular mail. It is copied principally from a Halifax paper of the 11th July.
BOSTON, July 17.
Arrived this morning, schr. Ann Kelly, from Halifax, bringing London dates to May 25.
AMERICAN AFFAIRS.
LONDON, May 24.
In the house of commons last night lord Henry Petty, put a question to Mr. Canning upon the subject of correspondence between Mr. Erskine and the American government. Mr. Canning replied that the agreement purporting to be entered into by our minister and the American government was not made in conformity with the wishes of his majesty nor such as his majesty could approve of. It was neither founded on the instructions sent to our minister, nor sanctioned by them. Yet, as it was
view that the same might without loss of time be made known to the merchants trading to the U. S. His lordship at the same time informed the committee that no advantage would be taken or any impediment thrown in the way of those who had already and in consequence of this unauthorised arrangement, sent consignments to any of his Britannic majesty's subjects; but that American ships and cargoes, under such circumstances, would be allowed to proceed to their destined ports in security.
LONDON, May 24. The king of Sweden has been deposed, and the government placed in hands of the prince regent, until a new constitution should be finally settled. The insurrection in Westphalia is of a formidable aspect. The noted bandit has taken Bremen, and was spreading through Brunswick and Hanover. A French squadron is said to be expected from Toulon, and thrown on Barcelona. Lord Collingwood will give some account of the return fleet. The emperor of Austria is said to have solicited peace, an assertion which is not believed. The archduke Charles retained the chief command under the stipulation that no peace should be made without his consent, and he has nothing but the annihilation of Austrian armies, and the impossibility of opposing any further resistance, to make him consent to that last degree of all miseries, submission to the Bonaparte. Dutch papers of the 23d arrived in Nign, and have brought an account of French having entered Vienna. Schult's bold enterprize continues the greatest alarm to the enemy in the of Germany. He has taken Bremen his band, rapidly increasing to an spreading itself through Brunswick Hanover, the inhabitants of which are in his favor. Jerome Bonaparte no army capable of opposing him, and fies himself to proclamations offer wars for his apprehension. One states that the king of Prussia, so approving of his conduct, has sent 20,000 men against him. The news which is here contested of sending a force against him proves the form nature of the insurrection he has bro bout. But we do not believe the Prussia has sent any force against him, we remember reading the other day in Lyden Gazette, some reflections on his Prussian majesty upon the subject Schult's enterprize. We stated on Monday that a French squadron from Toulon had thrown relief in colonial, and that as lord Collingwood heard of their being at sea, great hope entertained of their being intercepted their return. A report was in circulation last night that our squadron were off ca with a fine breeze, and that the d were only 15 miles distant. This morning letter was received by a merchant from the master of one of his vessels that accounts had been received at G of lord Collingwood having destroyed French fleet in the Mediterranean. letter is dated on the 1st of May, and news is contained in postscript, which follows: "Captain Ireland, of the On this moment standing in, and our coming in, after having completed destruction of the squadron from Toulon. If the postscript be written on the day the letter is dated, the intelligence no be true, for the admiralty are in p sion of later advices which make no on of such an event. The French p received yesterday said that the squa had got back to Toulon. PLYMOUTH, May 24. By the Nonpareil schooner arrived Falmouth from Oporto, in 90 hours learnt that Romana had succeeded in ing possession of Corunna and Ferrol from the French. PORTSMOUTH, May 24.

FELIX AUGSBURG, May 24. According to certain intelligence French troops are already on the other of Vienna. It is probable that they proceed directly towards Hungary, in to anticipate the surrender there. AUSTRIA, May 24. We have heard nothing of battles the retreat of the archduke Charles over Danube. He has fixed his great army Bohemia.

HAGUE, May 22.
The following important intelligence is contained in letters of the 13th inst. from the Lower Rhine:
On the 25th of April, the emperor of Russia declared war against Austria, and ordered his armies to enter Galicia and Hungary. The Russians have already entered Galicia.
Since the 9th instant, the French flag has been unfurled on the top of St. Stephen's Church at Vienna. On the 10th or 11th, the emperor Napoleon was to leave the capital. The emperor Francis II. has solicited peace.
A private letter from the French headquarters, of the 6th, announces that on that day an Austrian officer of the staff had arrived with a messenger bearing a letter written by the emperor Francis to the emperor Napoleon, in which the emperor of Austria implored an armistice and peace with his majesty in the most humble expressions. The short time of the stay of the parlementaires in the head quarters of his majesty, induced an opinion that the answer was unfavorable; the more so, as the army continues advancing.
STOCKHOLM, May 11.
Abdication of the king of Sweden.
The members having produced their credentials from their Constituents and the diet being duly constituted, the states proceeded in a body, on the 6th inst. to pay their respects to his royal highness the regent, and to express their most grateful acknowledgments for the zeal and patriotism he had evinced in relinquishing the comforts and tranquility of a private station and convoking the grand constitutional assembly of the nation, as the only means for saving the country from impending destruction.
On Tuesday the 9th, his royal highness the regent opened the diet with a speech addressed to the states, in which the L. Chancellor (Legerbjelke) of the court baron read in an audible voice a detailed account of the events and circumstances which had rendered a convocation of the states indispensably necessary for the salvation of the country.
On Wednesday the 10th, all the members of the states met at an early hour in one assembly, which will ever be remarkable in the annals of Sweden. His royal highness having ordered the lord chancellor to read aloud the act of abdication voluntarily made by the king on the 20th day of March. Baron Mannenheim rose and addressed the assembly. The baron in a speech of considerable length, drew a picture of the situation to which Sweden was reduced by the king's passion for war, renounced all allegiance to the person and authority of Gustavus the 4th, and declared him and his issue now and forever, deprived of the crown & government of Sweden. The baron then asked whether this act, this solemn resolution of his, in which his heart and tongue concurred, met with the approbation of the members composing that august assembly? Long and reiterated acclamations of Yes! yes! All! All! resounded from all parts, & baron Mannenheim's declaration was adopted by the constitutional representatives of the Swedish nation, without a single dissenting voice.
His royal highness was then conducted to the chair, from which he addressed the assembly. He proceeded to remark upon the state of the nation, noticed the abuses which had crept into every department of the state and lamented the inadequacy of the laws to restrain or suppress those abuses. It therefore became in his opinion, indispensably necessary to new model the constitution, & enact such laws as should secure the country from a recurrence of the evils which had brought it to the brink of ruin. The execution of this object so important to the vital interests of Sweden, he confided to the united wisdom and counsels of the states, and hoped they would discharge their duty with credit to themselves and advantage to the country.
In the mean time he would take on himself and execute to the best of his ability, the management of public affairs in the capacity of regent, and wished that nothing should be resolved on respecting himself, until the new constitution should be drawn up and presented for adoption.
To-morrow a committee for drawing up a new constitution will be chosen, & when they shall have terminated their labors, it is supposed that the states will declare themselves in favor of his royal highness.

July 24.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman in Halifax, received by way of Boston, dated 10th July, to his friend in New York.
"Our public news here at present is more important than usual. A dispatch vessel has just arrived, which states that the British ministry have disavowed the proceedings of Mr. Erskine, an occurrence which will naturally lead the officers of England and America into greater uncertainty, and remove to some distance at last the period of a final adjustment. Continental accounts by the same vessel, represents Bonaparte as at Vienna; and mentions the capture of Oporto by the English, the second place in Portugal. Sir George Provost, the governor of this province, is absent on a tour. An express has been dispatched to him with the orders received from home by this vessel, and he is expected here hourly."
Latest from Port-au-Prince.
Captain Smith, who arrived at Boston on Sunday in 24 days from St. Jago de Cuba, informs that two days previous to his sailing a gentleman came to that place from Port-au-Prince, and reported that gen. Pétion had collected all his followers in mass, amounting to about 14,000 of which 2,000 were cavalry; that of this force 4000 had marched against the Cape under the command of 4 colonels, who, in case of success, were to be promoted; and who marched with a determination to effect their object or to perish in the attempt. The gentleman added, that information had been received of the unmolested march of this little army within 20 miles of the town; but that the news of their approach having been gained by the enemy, the troops and inhabitants were assembled to defend the place. It is, however, conjectured, that their resistance would be fruitless; and that the town had already capitulated. General Pétion was encamped about 18 miles from Port-au-Prince with the remaining troops, waiting the result of this enterprize; when it was his intention to join gen. Le Mem, who commanded at the Mole, and attempt the immediate and total annihilation of Christophe's army. Accounts had also been received of the destruction of a part of Christophe's fleet, and the dispersion of the remainder.
Fourth of July—Select Toasts.
AT SCHENECTADY, (N. Y.)
The day we celebrate—May its annual return kindle and perpetuate in the breast of every American the true spirit of '76.
Faction and foreign influence—May the former be forever banished from our shores, and the latter prevented from reaching them.
Our public councils—May harmony preside over them; wisdom and enlightened policy direct them, and national glory and prosperity must be the result.
The memory of Washington—May it not only be dear to every American, but powerfully stimulate us to emulate his virtues, and tread with a firm step his political course.
The constitution of the U. States—The most perfect chart of religious and political liberty.
The heroes of the American revolution—In times of like emergency may our country annex to their names an host of glorious successors.
Independence and national dignity—While we retain courage and integrity to
support the former, the latter will never be withdrawn from our happy country.
The rising generation—May they tread in the footsteps of their ancestors, save only in the excelling them in virtue and patriotism.
Pending Negotiation with England—May the faction which courts British hostility as a mean to preserve their power, and misrepresents every act of that government to perpetuate the delusion which maintains their popularity, be defeated in their wicked schemes by the firmness and wisdom of honest politicians.
Our Eastern Brethren—Discerners of right and wrong, with firmness to support the former and resolution to oppose the latter.
Commerce—The source of public wealth—the wide field of individual enterprise—May it ever receive the fostering care of our federal legislature.
Modern philosophy and hocus pocus policy—May they give place to the dictates of common sense and the correct precepts of old experience.
Partiality to foreign nations—May it never enter our public councils, nor involve our country in disgrace and ruin.
May democratic dreams be succeeded by federal realities.
The people—Honest, patriotic, and faithful; palsied be the arm and mute the tongue of every demagogue that shall attempt to mislead them.
The American government—May it always be administered with wisdom and energy, untainted by the influence of corruption, and free from the contagion of party.
Speakers of the day—May they be eminent in life, and firm supporters of the independence we celebrate.
VOLUNTEER TOASTS.
John Jay, esq.—The patriot and statesman; the man whom Washington delighted to honor—the shafts of detraction and calumny have assailed him in vain.
The honor and prosperity of our country—the polar star of federal policy—in pursuit of this we will neither be seduced by democratic sycophancy, nor terrified by their vulgar and impertinent abuse from adopting the political creed of our beloved Washington, and promoting the good of our country by the means he so successfully pursued.
Failing Democracy—Oh how terrible the descent! this you should have remembered when you were rising.
The minority in Congress.
The memory of Fisher Ames.
John Adams—Old age is venerable—imbecility is pitiable.
The memory of gen. Hamilton.
The Spanish patriots. Their names will be inscribed on the same page of history with the heroes of America.
Connecticut—The land of correct and steady habits—The head quarters of good principles—The tribe of Benjamin in our political Israel, whose sons, tho' few in number, are chosen men, that know how to wield the sling of truth against error to a hair's breadth—may she remain as she is.
The state of New York. We trust the next gubernatorial election will evince that in correctness of political principles, she comes up to the standard of Connecticut.
The force of Habit. May it ever actuate those educated in the school of Federalism.
OF MARSHAL SOULT, &c.
In the Lisbon Gazette of June 1, there are dispatches from marshal Berresford, commander in chief of the Portuguese forces, to the regency, dated at Coimbra, the 29th May, and inclosing letters from Galicia, containing events of war operations in that province. The first is from gen. Mahy [second in command in the marquis de Romana's army, the marquis being absent on an important mission to Oviedo] in which he informs the marshal that the duke of Dalmatia (Soult) with his army (10,000) passed Orense [about 70 miles to the northward of Oporto] on the 18th May, followed by the English army under gen. Wellesley:—That in the vicinity of Lugo, Soult formed a junction with the army under marshal Ney, and that the united force amounted to about 40,000 men:—That they had been pursued to Lugo; from whence marshal Ney penetrated into Asturias from Galicia, where it was expected he would be reinforced by detachments from Castile, to the amount of 16,000 men; that he left 7000 men to guard the bridges between Leon and Galicia: That the army of the marquis Romana consisted of 18,000 men, 8000 which were at Vigo, under gen. Carrara; the rest posted between Lugo and Mendevedo: that with the reinforcements expected 40,000 men. Another letter is from gen. Vala, dated 23d of May, at Casayo, in which is announced a battle fought for 3 days between Meyra and Lugo, in which
the French lost about 3000 in killed and prisoners; and in which they were pursued to Paraday; after the loss of 3 pieces of cannon. The same letter adds, that after an obstinate resistance, in which the French lost 4000 killed and wounded, and 6 pieces of cannon, the patriots succeeded in taking Lugo—Such is the outline of the dispatches published in the official Gazette at Lisbon.

HAMILTON'S ELIXIR, FOR COUGHS.
THE increasing reputation of Hamilton's Elixir, (which during the last nine years has become celebrated throughout the U States,) warrants the assertion that it is the best remedy now in use for colds, obstinate coughs, asthma and approaching consumptions. Experience has taught thousands, that the common opiates and balsamics, as they are called, finally aggravate every disorder of the breast and lung. In the most distressing symptoms, that they load the stomach and impair the digestion, inflame the whole system, increase the difficulty of breathing and excite fever. But the qualities of this valuable discovery are evinced by perfectly opposite effects.
A single trial will prove that it restores the determination of the fluids to the surface of the body and brings on the common healthful perspiration; that it dislodges and evacuates the tough viscid phlegm or mucus, strengthens the weakened vessels of the lungs sheathes the acrimonious liquor which irritates them and finally discharges it. Thus striking at the root of the disorder the symptoms are effectually and permanently conquered, the reverse of common medicine which weakens the constitution and gives strength to the disorder, or the sake of moderating for the present some of its painful effects.
To parents who have children afflicted with the hooping cough, this discovery is of the first magnitude, as it affords immediate relief, checks the progress, and in a short time entirely removes the most cruel disorder to which children are liable. The Elixir is perfectly agreeable, and the dose so small, that no difficulty arises in taking it.
Select Recommendations.
Philadelphia, August 9, 1806.
Mrs. H. Lee, widow of Richard Lee, jr. Being desirous to make public for the good of others the excellent quality of Hamilton's Elixir, prepared by the late Mr. Lee, I have sent you the following account of the benefit I have received from it; which I hope will induce others to give it a trial. In consequence of a bruise on the breast received from a fall, my health grew bad, my breathing became very difficult, and frequently I have had suddenly to rise up in my bed with all the horrors of immediate suffocation. Add to these, a constant pain in my breast, and a cough, a great loss of strength and flesh, and you may conceive that my symptoms evidently indicated an approaching consumption. The advice of a most eminent physician was resorted to, and afterwards a second was called in, but without giving me any relief. Another physician, who knew me and the circumstances of my case, advised me to give Hamilton's Elixir a trial, saying, he had used it in his practice, and always found it do much good. A bottle was procured from Mr. Birch's and I found relief before I had taken half of it. I continued to use it, and was soon strong enough to attend to business. On taking cold some of my former symptoms return, but are always removed by a dose or two of the Elixir.
GEO. BENNER, junior, No. 11, Budd-street, Philadelphia.
Mr. Charles Myers, Hamstead-Hill, near Baltimore, had been a long time dangerously indisposed, and was reduced to the lowest state of weakness, so much that his recovery appeared extremely doubtful. His complaints which seemed to be affections of the breast and lungs, and general debility occasioned thereby, yielded little, but rather progressed under the treatment of several eminent physicians; when by the use of Hamilton's Elixir his distressing cough was immediately alleviated, and every other symptom perfectly subdued. Four or five bottles entirely removed his complaints and restored him to an excellent state of health and strength, which he has for upwards of a year past, enjoyed without interruption.
From Luther Martin, esq late attorney general of Maryland.
I comply with your request in stating my opinion of Hamilton's Elixir. It has been used in my family for two or three years past, with uniform success, whenever coughs, colds, or similar complaints have rendered medicine necessary. I have myself found it an excellent and agreeable remedy for a very painful and troublesome affection of the breast, accompanied with soreness, and with obstructed and difficult breathing.
On these accounts I do not hesitate to recommend Hamilton's Elixir as a valuable medicine, and deserving public attention.

Just Published, FOR SALE BY R. GRAY, A CELEBRATED ROMANCE ENTITLED ABAELLINO, THE BRAVO OF VENICE.
Translated from the German, by M. G. Lewis, the well known author of the Castle Spectre, Monk, Adelgitha, &c. &c. Price, handsomely bound, one dollar—the English edition sold at one dollar seventy five cents.
What black Musician conjures up this fiend? What, do you tremble, are ye all afraid? Alas, I blame ye not, for ye are mortal, And mortal eyes cannot endure the devil— Avaunt, thou dreadful Minister of Hell.
RICHARD III.
In justice to this excellent Romance, we need only remark, that the Grand Dramatic piece, which for several seasons past drew such full houses to our theatre, is founded on the same subject, as translated by Dunlop; but the acknowledged superiority of Lewis's writings or translations in the Romance style, being so far superior to any other of our modern authors, leaves encomium unnecessary with the publishers.
NOTE. Five editions of this Romance were sold in a very short time, after publication in London—it is dedicated to the Earl of Moira, by Lewis.

TO MILLERS.
I HAVE invented a machine called Wheat Rubber, for which I obtained a patent the first day of this month. This machine may be seen in operation in the mill of Daniel Elliott, Occoquan. Those who feel an interest in investigating its merits and have not an opportunity of visiting Occoquan, may be fully informed by application to Mr. Elliott by letter. My Wheat Rubber, I do verily believe is upon entirely new principles, the cost of erecting it a trifle, the materials of which it is composed easily attainable in any part of our country. The plan simple in the extreme: any man of common capacity will be enabled to erect it from description only. Practical millers know, that in a great proportion of wheat that comes to market (from the farmer) it is stacked in the fields by the farmer and exposed to the weather) a number sprouted and unsound grains mingle with the mass, and has eluded the ingenuity of the miller to separate it from the sound grain—they also know those unsound grains injure materially the taste and color of flour—my machine not only frees the wheat from stone, onion, cockle, dirt, &c. but does also, utterly take from it every unsound grain, from what cause soever it may have been injured, as my machine will not let any unsound wheat pass it—millers may have their screens wire much finer than hitherto used, and thereby save considerably—it will also be found that the grain in passing the rubber is polished, and that even the eyes of the wheat are picked perfectly clean of dust or dirt. Some instances having occurred of certificates being obtained, saying much more in favor of a new invention than the public are willing to admit after trial—I hope it will be a sufficient apology for my taking a different course. My price for the privilege of using the rubber is fifty dollars for each pair of whetstones the mill contains.
Letters directed to me post paid shall be attended to.
