We. the undersigned, have examined
Mr.. Nj. M'Keever's newly invented
patent Threshing and Cleaning Machine,
and consider it valuable Improvement
The labour saved by it in cleaning the
grain as it is threshed, without any ad.
ditional force,is an advantage well worth
the consideration Of farmers. We fully
concur in the quantity threshed, with
the above gentlemen. and we have no
doubt but more could have been thresh-

QUEER Story OF CEN. GAINES
The New York Commercial, in the fol-
lowing article, tells very queer story Of
General Gaines:
Where in the world Is poor General
Gaines ?-Hss the Commercial stricken
the gallant Gaines from the army list?-
Gazette.
Not exactly: but somebody ought to
do il. As to the first question OF the
Gazette, Involving the whereabout, our
neighbor need not be surprised 10 meet
the gallant general one OF these morn
ings, at the head of the Arkansas aud
Missouri militia, in full march for the
Aroostook au1 Fredericton. Does the
Gazette wish us to explain /? We do so
cheerfully, and the nation will be thrown
into broad grin at the fact we are a.
bout to disclose. Would it be believed
then, that the moment the eccentric
general OF whom we ere speaking, heard
IN the prairies Of the passage of the law
OF Congress, authorising the President
to accept the services of fifty thousand
volunteers in the event OF war with
England, he, the said general, issued a
circular TO the Governors of the several
States within the region of his command,
directing them TO enroll their respective
quotas of the said fifty thousand voluu
teers, and report them for service? Gen.
Gaines has done number Of queer
things in the course of his latter military
career. but nothing quite so queer as this.
Docs the Gazette desire farther nfnrma.
ton Let him inquire of the Secretary
of War.
