vUNliE subscriber has erected foundry at Vesu-

all articles usually executed at founlries, and of
manufacturing the Livingston county Piow. This
plow was first used in the county of fockbridge
hut little more than year ago since then,
many Of our most Intelligent farmers who have
had an opportunity Of testing ii, have given the
strongest testimony of its value as Il cheap, eff
e,icnt, and strong ariicle--indeed il is believed
that all without ii single exception, who have
purchased and tried this pillow during the past
year, have b0en highly pleased with its operation,
and have been generally convinced that it will
soon supercede all othe rs now i'm use. The pat
terms which the subscriber now has, were made
by the Paientoe during the past year, expressly
for the State of Virginia and believed to be
an Improvement upon the form OF his first patterns
particularly in having a stronger turning power.
The old patterns for the paints and slides of this
pillow, and all the patterns for the self sharpening
pillow, at this foundry also ccmI lete sell

will be under The management of Mr. SCHUYLER
bradley, whose reputation moulder is suffi
aent guaranty that all Jobs will be neatly eXecu-
ted. In asking share of the public patronage
for this foundry, the subscriber relies entirely upon
these facts, that all his TASKS g. Of his patterns
are new: that his materials and workmen are tho
very best in the valley; and that he is determined
tospare no expense to make il in all respects such
an establishment as will meet the wants of this
community. MATTHEW BRYAN
