have every reason to believe that offers will be
made by contractors to complete this great work
for within the sum of TWO millions of dollars,
and to the probability ofthc early completion of

canal once finished, the finances Of Maryland

tlsenlsnls being on both sides.
Is@A communication has been cccivcd from
"LAvRA," which, for the above mentioned rca-
son, We have not had time to look over yet.
I@7Aftcr having read the malignant and aLu-
-sve Article that appeared i'll the Gazette Of last
week, against us we noted down the following
conclusions in regard to the writer.
LIST He is a liar, because he denies that any
one could suppose that our editorials were writ
ten by another, when the very paper that pub
lisied his contemplate article, copied from
ne ighboring paper the week before, two articles
making the charge. We repeat, therefore, he is
iiar-a malicious tcr, be he whom he may.
End He Is a mean JiachguarI WHICH charge is
fully sustained by his article.
3rd. lie is a base sco,nafci, who would were it
in his power, rob us of our fair nama' who wodd
assassinate our charactor-a being more dcspica-
bic than the hghwayman, who would rob the ira
weller of his trcasurc-as malignant wretch, as
he who at midnight would strike a dagger to the
heart of his fellow.
4th. If he resides in Elkton, he is a paltIy co,c-
ard, who attempts to deceive by pretending to
write from IIavre-dc-Gracc, endeavoring thus,
to turn suspicion fromits proper course, 10 some
innocent person.
We made the above notes. Immediately upon
reading the articlc--wc made them coolly, taking
into consideration, That political excitement had
d un}. and that there could be no cause for
.cl heartlcss and uncalcd for attack.
Had it been time of uncommon political
jarring, We would have let it pass, perhaps, with
out noticing it, but under existing circumstances
VIC felt that justice to oursclf required that we
should know the writer's name, and we accor-
DINGHY sont by friend, two notes to the Editor of
the Gazette, demanding it. The answer to the
second one, (Which on account Of our absence
we did not receive till this moment givcs rs the
name of A. II. FORwOOD, Esq. as the wrl-
ter; ana appealing to his article for sustain
ncnt, We now say that we intend the above
charges to stand in full force against him, as the
writer.
Could our printers watt VIC would speak some
what more on the subjective would say word
to Mr. Bosce; especially, as he s indebted to lis for
the means of laying before his readers, the paper
containing the base communication.

which Farmers have long looked in vain, and which

The subscribers have purchased The nigh, OF the
above Machine and Horse Power, for the coun-
ties of NORTHUMBERLAND, LrcoMING, CLINTON,

The advantages which this Machine has over
all others invented many and obvious. One
boy and three men can do all the threshing and
cleaning OF so bushels of wheat in one day--and
this usually takes seven hands one day and three
the next. For field threshing it takes the lead o
any thing in this world-no grain is scattered OF
lost
Such is the superiority Of the Borse Power
that three horses can thresh as mich with it a.
! four can with any other.

aid of three hands besides the driver The Straw
is passed oil from the grain on an incline plane, eN'
