WILLIAMS THE OCCULlST, ALIAS
IMP ,STER

Having published various pufls of the
person whose name is at the head Of this
article, in the way of advertisement and
having GOOD reason TO believe that he is not
what he ought to be; as will be manifest
from the following documents, we deem
it an indispensable duty 10 the public to ex-
pose the low, dishonest, and ungentlemanly
thots hy which this man enables himself to
dupe the suffering.
Mr.. Williams called at our office shortly
after his arrival, and expressed wish 10
have an advertisement in the Cumberland
Presbyterian, which we conduct, and also
in the Union, which is published at this
Office. Our terms were stated and m.
pliet with; in consequence of which the
puffs of Mr.. Williams appeared in our pa.
per, without our paying any particular
attention to them. A few days ago, Will
Jams left in our office large parcel for our
examination, said to contain diplomas, re.
commentators, &c. On last evening,
before he knew whether we had read his
diplomas or not, yea, before he knew
whether we could read them. many Of them
being printed in the French language, this
imperiinent charlatan placed III the hands
of The foreman Of our office, the following
mess Of 5ombast and falsehood for our
signature, to be published as our compost
ton, as OUR recommendation of his lylng
imposturcs-and accompanied with the
precious promise Of THIRTY dollars as a
reward of dishonesty. Verify, this stro!llng
imposter has vas amount of impudence.
when he can attempt to brlbc even Min
is:er Of the Gospel and Editor of a religious
journal. But his production, which he
would have US palm upon The public as
ours, will speak for itself: 1t reads as
follows:

EVIDENCES OF THE DELUXE.

***Wc now come TO the consideration OF
that great tremendous catastrophe ofnaturc
the Deluge. 4 story Of this kind can be
demonstrated to be true or false. If the
whole earth was overwhelmed, traces Of It's
submcrsion must remain if not, there can
be no such traces. And if al but one FAM
ly were swept away, all the inhabitants Of
the globe, being their defendants, would un-
doudtcdly hold some tradition to this effect :;
Otherwise, not. Let US now see how stands

CLINE'S COMBINED PLOUGH.

The inventor of this Implement made
n trial of one Of them a: our place, 4 few
days since, in the presence OF several gen.
,.cmen, farmers and machinists, theresuit o.
which was highly satisfactory to all present.
They are constructed with from two 10 five
shares. The one used upon this occasion
had two steel shares, and was worked by
one horse, which power was sufficnt 70 en-.
able il TO Go lis work with great case and
c,;actuess. As he reader will suppose. II
carried twoFlrrows, which were lald with
much nicely. From tic peculiar mathc-
ma:ical proprie;y with which the proportions
of The plough are arranged, there is no .jos:-
ing or inequality in The resistance, SO that
whether regard be had to the horse or the
plougbmaa, the labor is lighter, much hight
cr, than with the common plough. MIR.
Cline managed it most of the time with his
finger and thumb resting Oh the rcins placed
on the cross. bar extending from handle to
handle. The wood. work is got up pretty
much upon the plan of harrow with ham
dies, is compact, strong and comepetent
perform my wolk with P! o@cr force. The
work performed at my place was ploughlng
in small field Of corn, and we were sup
priscd to obtain the closeness with which
MIR. c. was enabled to approach the corn
withou, injury. Indeed so exactly does 1t
do its work, that there is little left for the
hoers 10 perform; for, in fact, that as well
as turning up the ground is done by the I'M.
p!cment Itself. So satisfied ere we oflts i'm.
lncnse superiority, that we have engaged
one, with a view ofworking our corn. 10
us It appears, that his double shared lm-
p!cments are competent, with the prope!Ing
force, to do as much more work in any
given time as any other plough we have
ever seen without Increasing the labor to
10 either man or beast.
Mr.. Cline is resident of Bucks county,
Pennsylvania, 4 practical farmer, and know.
lag the dcficiencics of the old plough, set
himself scduously 10 work to produce an
implement that should supply them, and we
think VIC hazard nothing in saying, that he
has been triumphantly successful. He has
patent, and as we believe he deserves i,
we sincerely hope he may reap fruitful
harvest Of proft as he reward Of his lngcn-
uity and perseverance; lor certainly he
has rendered 4 most important service to
his agricultural brethren, by reducing the
expense Of cultivation so far as the plough is
concerned, fifty per ccntum. As ''money
saved, is money gained" so has Mr.. Cline
placed il within the 2owcr Of every hus-
bandman, TO economise his ploughing ex-
pcnditurcs 10 the amount named by U.s.
At times ike the present, when from the
precariousncss of our seasons, crops are
uncertain, it becomes the farmer or planter
10 avail himself Of every opportunity TO
cur,ail his costs Of labor, therefore, it aP-
pears to us. that more eligible means of
efiectuating this object, has seldom been
presented 10 the public than the present, in
the shape of laborsavlns machinery.
