Saue uour Corn Cobs and Shucks.

TO TIFF PLANTERS AND MILLERs OF NORTH
CAROLINA.
TEVHE undersigned has obtained Letters Patent,
IL to enable common Mill stones Cor rocks) now
IN use, to grind CORN, COB and SHUCK, into
meal for Horses, Mules Cattle, Hogs, &C., there
by saving more than one third of crop, which is
an important item with planters. The machinery
used for the above purpose IS simple and durable,
and cannot, with fair MEANS get out of order. 1t
will last long the Stones last, with expense
of SO cents every five years. TO enable the COM
mon Mill Stone, to grind ear corn into meal, re-
quires new buildings extra power It can
also be applied to Horse Mills, Threshing Ma
chimes, Gins, or any given power known. The
same Mill will grind one-third more of Corn Meal
by the introduction of this Machinery, and can be
changed from grinding Corn and Cob, to grinding
Corn Meal in the space of thirty seconds. Corn
alone when fed to stock, is said to be by the most
practical and scientific Planters constpating in its
effects, producing founders, cholics and various
other malades which are incidnt to stock. Grind
ing cobs with the Com, makes food congenal
with their nature, and cannot produce any of the
serious results above mentioned. Stock, when fed
on Corn exclusively, deprived of the benefits of
dstension $50 necessary to the proper health of an
imals,) by their being unable to eat sufficient
bulk to produce distension before the ANNA be-
comes gorged. Cobs ground with the corn, pro-
duce the necessary distension. without any danger
of diseases arising from overeating. Corn and cob
meal is improved by scaldlng, and still more by
boiling, and yet more by partial fermentation
All the preparations facilitate digestion for Hogs.
But Horses and Mules will not eat fermented food,
consequently they will require it dry Oh partially
wet with cold water Horses, Mules and Oxen,
when fed with unground food, void much in an
undigested state, ,Uhich Is of course lost for all ben
efcialpurposes. q Read the subioined certificate,
| q The undersigned cam be addressed at Raj
eigh, and all calls ,vW be attended to punctua!ly
AID acith despatch by hi'nsegor Agent.

! CERTIFICATE.
! Having been solicited by Maj. Collins to have
my Mill justed to grind Corn in the Ear and
Shuck, consented that he should do so as an ex-
pertinent; and am able to say that it grinds Corn
in the Shuck at the rate of 80 bushels per hour
and the dressing of the stones is so improved, that
it grinds she!led Corn more than twice as fast as
before, and by my watch, at the rate of 5 bushels
per hour, and the meal finer than usual. l deem
it valuable improvement, and shall purchase the
right to Use it, as it will afford me speedy way o.
feeding my horses and cattle, and save much
thereby. WIN. BOILAN.

INDIAN NAMES.
Bv Lvd;o Huntlsv SsgosIrney.


. How can the Red Man be forgotten, whIit
50 many of our states and territories pays
lakes and rivers, are indelibly stamped oJ
names Of their giving!"
Ye say they have all passed away,
That noble race and brave;
That their light canoes have yanish'd
From off the crested wave,
That mid the forests where they roamed.
There rings no hunters shout;
But their name is on your waters,
Ye may not wash it out.
.TIs where Ontario's billow .y -
Like oceans surge is cufrd sc
Where strong Niagara's shundsts wake =
The echo Of the world.
Where red Missouri bringeth
Rich tributes from the west,
And RapPahanock sweetly sleeps
On green Virginia's breast.
Ys say their cone-like cabins,
That clustered Ger the vale,
Have disappeared, as wither'd leaves
Before the autumn's gale;
But their memory liveth on your hills,
Their baptism on your shore,
Your everlasting rivers speak
Their dialect of yore.
Old Massachusetts wears it
Within her lordly crown;
And broad Ohio bears it
Amid his young renown.
Connecticut hath wreath'dit
Where her quiet foliage waves,
And bold Kentucky breathes it hoarse
Through all her ancient caves.
Wachusett hides its lingering voice
Within his rocky heart.
And Allegheny graves its tone
Throughout his lofty chart.
Monadnock, on his forehead boar,
Doth seal the sacred trust;
Your mountains build their monument,
Though We destroy their dust.
