IMPORTANT TO FARMERS


nANENPORT'S Improved Pa,cn, Threshirg
III Machine and Horse Power, which ,hreshrs
aud cleans at The same timc--an invention for
which Farmers have long looked in vain, and which
renders the above machine periec, and past further
improvement. Those who hav. been waiting for
something better than heretofore offered for sale,
will find this to I've tie article. Come tee it and
fudge for yourselves.
The subscribers have purchased the right Of the
above Machine and Horse Power, for the coun-
ties of NoHrHraBEnLASD, LrcoNING, CLISroN,
and UNIoS-and also, the privileges Of vending
them in any other places for which the right has
not been previously sold.
The advantages which this Machine has over
all others invented many and Obvious. One

the next. For field thrcshing il takes the lead o
any thing in this world-no grain Is scattered oI
lost.
Such is the superiority Of the Horse Power
that three horses thrcsh much with it q.

THRESHING * WINNOWING MACHINE.
Having had in use, one "i Davrnporl's Patent
1hreshing and Winnowire Machines, and teing
repeatedly called upon for our opinion in regard to
their value, durability and advantages, We make,
rce TO state, that they exceed in our opinion, any
ThIeshng Machine ever before witnessed in
use. They will thresh and clean, fit for market
200 bushels of Wheat per day, and this with the
aid of three hands besides the driver. The Straw
is passed off from the grain incline plane, eX-
tending about i2 feet from the Machine. Scarce
ly a grain is lost. What is Of some importance
and greatly so is the fact that dust passes from
the Machine to the man who feeds il. The Horse
power seems to be perfection iseli-ihTee horses
may work it with ease and Their fastest gai, need
only he the ordinary Ilough gait. We must
cheerfuiiy recommend the Machine 10 Farmers--
they aIs manufactured in Milton iy MessIs. W elch

A Novel Fight.

On Tuesday last young lad Of this
town, named Samuel Bell, was hunting
in the woods near here, with two dogs.
He had lost sight of them a few mo.
ments, when he heard their piteous cries
and yells, as if in the greatest distress.
Supposing leopard had caught one of
them, he advanced cautiously in the
direction Of the noise, and had gone but
few PAGES when he found himself
within half dozen yards of a huge boa
constructor, in whose vast folds both Of
his struggling dogs were enveloped.
The snake at the same moment dis
covered him, and raising his head in
threatening manner, began slowly TO
recede with its prey. The lad instant>
ly levelled his gun and fired, wounding
the snake in the neck and head, but
without causing him to relinquish his
hold upon the dogs. The monster still
faced his antagonist and kept its ground.
The young hunter, with admirable
GOODNESS and courage, reloaded his
piece and again fired full at the head of
the boa 4; but even the second shot,
though it took effect, did not finish the
conflict, nor cause the release of the
poor dogs which were still held fast in
the snaky coil Again the determined
lad loaded and fired, and this time with
entire success. The victory was com>
plete, and the hunter boy bore off in
triumph the monster he had so bravely
conquered, and was followed home by
the wounded and bleeding dogs he had
so gallantly rescued Liberia Herald

A Xir1llOuS Man.

During the war in Germany, the cap
tain Of a troop of cavalry was ordered
out on foraging party. He marched
at the head of his corps 10 the quarters
assigned him, solitary vale, unculti.
waited, and nearly covered with wood.
In the middle of it stood small cot.
tage, the residence Of poor man, one
of the Moravian brethren. On percei-
wing the hut, the captain knocked at the
door, when the aged, pious son of power.
ty made his appearance. His beard
and locks were silvered by old age,
while his countcnance bespoke that in
ward peace which the world cannot
give or take away.
Father, said the officer, show me a
field, so that can set my troopers TO-
raging
4 will, presently, if you will follow
me- replied the old man.
After leaving the valley, about a
quarter of an hours march, they found
fine field of barley
There is the very thing we wanted
said the captain.
Have patience for few minutes re.
piled his guide, 'and you shall be salts
fed
They went on, about the distance of
quarter of a league farther, when they
arrived at another field of barley. The
troopers dismounted, cut down the
grain, bouud it up, and re-mounted,
while the guide looked on. When they
were about to depart, The officer said:
Father, you have given yourself un.
necessary trouble in coming so far; the
field we first saw was much better than
this
very true, SIR replied the good old
man, but it was not mine
This stroke (says the author very
justly,) goes directly 10 the heart. l
defy an atheist to produce any thing to
be compared with it. Surely he who
does not feel his heart warmed by such
an example Of exalted virtue, has not
yet acquired the first principle Of moral
taste.

the lake. A second British squadron
had yielded TO the proves of the Ame-
rican seamen. The cry animated to
braver deeds their brethren on land.
In the afternoon they withdrew to their
retrenchments. In the night, they be-

eight miles before their departure was
known in the American camp.
Upon the lake, the American loss
was ITO; the British 1914, beside priso-
ners. On land, the American loss was
1l9; that of the British was estimated
at $500. In the latter number, howe-

10 their nutive country, deserted from
