WE, Richard and Stephen Winchester,
residing in the town of Fredericksburg and
commonwealth Of Virginia, do certify, We
have built an Oven unuer the immediate Oh
rection of James Deneale of Dumtries and
commonwealth of Virginia aforesaid, On
plan entirely different from the ovens IN GEM
mon use,s and we believe invented by the said
Deneale. 1t requires much less tuel than
the common oven and may be used without
splitting the wood, Of course there IS great.
saving OF labor we have baked every kind OF
biscuit and can say truly that It bakes Well
We consider it as valuable imProvcm ent and
well worthy the attention of bakers.

THIS is to certify that have been using;
enc patent oven, invented by James Deneaie,
esqs of Dualfries, Virginia, since April last,
to considerable advantage in this city, have
no doubt Of its possessing considerable advan-
tages over the old method, sucn as a saving of
fuel and labor, in consequence of which the
proprietor is enabled to make the bread much
thianer and consequently more proper for long

Surrender Of Hobealobe -Captare Of Sfefin and Cg,iu.
The opinion we expreiIed on Saturday. that Ho-
henohe had been forced to capitulate has been too
true ne has been forced furrender with his whole
corps After the affair of Zedhenich he was forced
to avoid the road to Templin, where Murst had ar
rived before him. He then proceeded TO Prentz-
low, town at the northern extremity of lake. OIL
diftrct road Stettin. The Pruaps and the French
advanced guard reached it nearly at the fame time,
on the 3oth ult. As foon Murat came up, he gave
orders to charge the PFuiaDs in the fuburbs of the
town, while his cavalry attacked the PrufiaD flank
and turned the town.--The attack the uburbs was
victorious, and the French fucce1su in driving
the PrulliaDs into the town-Murat Immediately
iummoned them to capitulate. a capitulsten was
agreed upon and Hohenlohe's corps conllling of I6
600 infantry, fix regiments Of cavalry land Ga pieces
Of cannon, lurrendered. Prince Auguitus, the bro
Their to the gallant Prince Louis killed at Saalfeldt,
and the Prince Of Meekleuburgh, schwern, were
amongh the generals made prifoners.--On the 9sth
another Prullian column Of 900 was forced TO
caPituate to the French General Mhaud, at Pale
walk. Thi: Prufian column feems to have been part
Of Hohenohes army. Advancing with his diviGon,
Muratsrght wing fvmmoned Stettin, which furren-
dered withou; making auy reiltsnee, though it re-
prefented TO have been in a good 17te of defence /;

of attacking Pruffau column under the command Of
the Prui6an General Bila, who leems to he retiring
