JEWETT'S IMPROVED
PATENT CARY PLOUGH.

~ THE Subscriber keeps constant
N ly on hand a large supply Of the
ssAk-ESNSxsEAabove justly celebrated Plough,
both and horse, right and left hand, with the latest
improvements; and are prepared to supply any num-
her that may be wanted. This Plough is much i'm
proved this year, by setting the beam two inches
higher than heretofore, and by continuing the curve
of the land side regularly round up to the beam
which entirely prevents straw or weeds from hang
ing under it; thereby rendering it almost impossible
to choke it out in the worst of stubhe. The mould
board is put with bolts instead Of rvets, here
tofore, which makes the Plough much more easy to
repair. The heel of the Landslide is cast in a chill,
which hardens it hard cast steel, and prevents
it from wearing of: thereby preventing the Plough
from running unsteady after being used year or
two. The mould board of the Patent Cary is made
of wrought iron, and the share of steel, and will
scour bright silver, in the lightest soil. To
those who acquainted with the Patent Cary it is
unnecessary to say anything; but to those who are
not, say try it, and judge for yourselves. This
Plough is much more durable than almost any other
made in the country, and at the prices at which it is
now sold. it is without doubt the cheapest.

Slave Trade in Brazil.

The slave trade, from all accounts, is
carried on almost as extensively as ever,
between Brazil and Africa. The dealers
in Brazil first send vessel with goods,
which the traders in Africa use in buying
slaves, or "black diamonds," as they are
called. Small crafts are used, and vesa
sci of fifty tons often carries as many as
$50 slaves at from $50 to $50 each. D A
Baltimore built clipper, the Henry Clay,
is said to have made eleven voyages to Ba.
hia (where there are dozen vessels en-.
gagged in the business) in four years, and
cleared 100000. The traffic is illegal,
but the Brazilian government winks at this
abuse of the laws. The goods sent out to
purchase slaves with are generally of Brit
ish manufacture, and composed of mum.
tons of war, rum, and things of like char
acter. snsIasaa 5,i
Formerly, by treaty with Great Britain,
and the United States, Brazilian vessels
engaged in the trade were lawful prizes,
but that treaty expired some two years
since, and has not been renewed. The
English are charged with taking slaves in.
to Rio de Janerio, and apprenticing them
out for term of years, at so many pounds
per head. atea, e'rlts 5tA

and federal judges on the bench, for all
the honors or emoluments this world can
give. er

forget that ''to err is human, to forgive is
