HowELL's Patent Tanning Machine

IL The great saving Of time and labor effected by
this machine renders It one Of the most valuable OF
modern Inventions, being Of the utmost importance
TO those already engaged in the manufacture OF leath
er, besides offering the greatest inducements to 9TH
ers for starting the business.
BY this machine, which IN its operation strictly
follows the principles Of the old way, all kinds Of
hides and skins may be tanned, not only TO
produce superior article Of leather but with a
wing of seventy-hye per cent. in time, and fly per
cent, in labor, besides great economy in bark or
tanning material.
A onnery in which the improved method was
adopted, would, by i's savings alone be attended
with large profits, y s; a neIghboring one where
the old plan was pursued would be losing money.
The invention, which has been awarded gold
medal by the American institute, as being the most
valuable improvement ever introduced into this
branch Of manufactures, has given the highest salts
faction in the different States in which il is in
In the opinion Of practical men who have adopted
the improvement, at the cost OF about five hundred
dollars establishment can be started which will
tan two thousand sides of sole leather four thou
sand calf skins per annun at fifty per cent less than
the usual expense Of manufacture. Where greater
amount OF business is required to be done, add.
tona outlay, of course, will be necessary. By this
machine sole leather can be thoroughly tanned IN
twenty to thirty days, upper leather in two weeks
and calfsklns In from three to seven days. The
subscribers offer for sale single and county rights
for the above, and will afford the most liberal facilI
ties TO those purchasing State rights for the purpose
of reselng to counties or individuals. A neat mod
ell of the machine, showing its action and construc-
ton. will if required be furnished gratis to all pur
chasers.
For further particulars, address (post paid) Blu
chanan Co., at the Office of the Albion newspaper
New York.
One of these machines will be exhibited in opera
ton at the great national fair at Washington city,
Persons at distance who may be unable to be
present at the fair would do we'll to procure some
friend at Washington, to attend and examine for
them the great advantages of this improvement.

WHITE SULPHUR WATER, from
wv the White sulphur Springs, Green

w the White sulphur Springs, Green
brier county, Yirginia.-The reputation Of
the White Sulphur water is now so general and its
virtues in the cure Of various diseases so well
known throughout this country, that it is deemed
unnecessary to enter into general detail of its pc
cular properties, or Of its special application to dis
ease, but It is deemed proper TO state here for the
information of those who yet may have had
opportunity of testing the virtues of the White Sui
phur water, when removed from the fountain that
the proprietors have been engaged for several years
in transporting the water to all parts Of the country
in barrels and half barrels, which have undergone
careful and thorough preparation, and that 1t has
been satisfactorily ascetaned that the medical prop
critics of the water reside mainly in its solid con-
tents and as these not deposited or otherwise
lost by expectation, the transported water must re-
tain as much strength that used fresh from the
fountain. Numerous comparative trials made with
the water thus transported and the water fresh al
the spring, by intelligent and observant persons
from all parts of the Union, with view Of ascer-
tanning it's strength in either case, have abundanty
proved the truth of this position. Various letters
substantiatng these facts arc in the possession Of
the proprietors copies of some of which may be
found in the pamphlets containing general direc-
tons for the of the water which are furnished
to the vendors for gatultous distribution among their
customers.
Such may desire information in relation to this
water the propretors respectfully refer to the fol-
lowing gentlemen DR.. George Hayward, Hon
Abbott Lawrence, and Hon. Thomas H. Perkins

NHE object Of this suit is TO procure decree for
Il sale of certain premises in Queen AIMS
county, conveyed by certain James Roe to James
L. Bewey, nonresident, in fee, that your orators
may receive the difference between the sum paid
therefor by said James L. Bewley, and the amount
OF such sale, in the event that said James L. Bew.
ley shall not pay unto your orators the sum Of If
teen hundred dollars, with interest from the date of
the aforesaid conveyance. - . +
Inc OIL states that, some years ago. your orators
conveyed certain premises to a certain James Roe
in fee, for the of two thousand dollars but that
said conveyance was intended to operate as mort
gage, for that said Roe passed his bond to Thomas
bewey, binding himself to reconvey on the pay
ment to said Roe of said two thousand dollars; and
further that said Roe gave bond to Ann, wife OF
Thomas Bewley, providing for her an annuity Of
seventy-two dollars during her natural life, in case
SAID Ann should survive said Thomas Bewley
The bill further states that said Roe offered to your
orators the sum Of fifteen hundred dollars for the
delivery Of the aforesaid bonds but that your ora
tors, believing the said premises to be worth more
money, and being unwilling the title should pass
out OF the family of your orators, prevailed upon
James L. Bewley, the defendant to discharge the
debt due and owing to said Roe, who thereupon
conveyed said premises to said defendant in fee but
your orators that it was understood and agreed
between them and said defendant that the defend
ant should have only the estate and interest therein
which said Roe had held; and that trusting to the
hlial affections Of said defendant, did not require
such obligations from him said Roe passed, and
now said defendant hath elected them from said
premises to the great injury of your orators, and
they are without remedy, except by the interference
of this court; and that the said James l.. Bcwley
resides out Of the State of Maryland
