chimes ever exhibited in this State, or at any other

Mr.. E. WHITMAN, it,
Dear Sir Il have for some time intended giving
you full description Of the operation and success
of the 2-horse wrought iron Railway Power and
Threshing Machine, purchased of you last May
| will give you few instances of threshing:-I
carried the whole machine between s and 10 miles
with cart, and set it three times on different
farms, and thIeshed from Is 10 100 bushels of
wheat in one day, and each time took the machine
out fthe CART made the tables geared the horses;
and commenced threshing in ten minutes. Rev
Peter Ainsley, Col. Richard J. Muse and Museo
Garnett, Esq, were witnesses to the above In
another instance, commenced threshing at Mr..
W. X. G.. Tribes, at o'clock in the morning, and
threshed 90 bushels of wheat by IL o'clock in the
afternoon of same day, and threshed ~ bushels of
wheat before sun down. Mr. l.. d. Brooks, Mr.
Beverly Brooks, and others, can vouch for the truth
of this statement. / frequently threshed 100 bush
els of wheat from breakfast to dinner time-and
during the season, I threshed SO different crops,
making in all $3.50 bushels OF wheat, and the wear
of the machine is scarcely apparent-and consid-
er the labor to the horses more than blowing in
light land. candidly believe, your wrought-iron
Railway Horsepower and Thresher surpasses any
have seen, and find it is now much better since
your late Improvements have been attached
You will please have tw o of your Improved Rail,
way Horsepower and Threshers put up and sent
to me by first conveyance they are for two of my
ghbors-bave them landed at Piscataway Bridge.
think shall order one or two more of them be-
tween now and harvest.

Let lie Smile While I Can.

Let me smile while can-there are moments
of sadness
Which steal DER the heart like cloud o'er
the sky;
And dimmed for while is the sunshine OF
gladness,
And tears follow fast as the rain from on
high.
Let me smile while can-in life's rosiest bow
ers,
The flowers are always entwined with the
thorns;
And how often it is the same evening sky low
ers,
Which dawned on the brightest and lowell
est of morns.
Let me smile while l can-why should we de-
plore them,
The dead who are gone to their long silent
home!
We know not how soon the eyes that weep
DER them
May shed the same bitter drops over our
tomb.
Let me smile while can-there are moments
of sorrow,
Too numerous by far for our moments of
joy
And none from the past or the present may
borrow,
One hour unmixed with grief's bitter alloy.

aHow brightly breaks the morning. |,

We are delighted 10 see the Union Yesterday
morning rise with restored serenity, and we
must be permitted TO unite our congratulations
upon the Frightening signs which the Northern
horizon presents. We were always satisfied
that when the great manufacturing commercial,
and mercantile, interests of the country came to
consider the injury which fanatics assuming to
speak in their name wers doing them, they
would raise in the majesty Of their power and
pronounce for the Union in a voice not to be
mistaken. The enemies of Union, firing the
popular mind at the two extremes, have availed
themselves Of the casual prejudices against the
Federal Legislature. ard have striven to effect
purpose which monarchs have warred and
ministers intrigued to attain. They would de-
strov government which has excited the won-
der Of the wise, the love Of good men, and the
malignant enmiiy of tyrants and slaves. The
great Union meeting Of New York viii have
most valuable influence upon the country. We
learn that the continued and extending agitation
may possibly induce an organization atthe North
upon the issue OF Union and Disunion. We
shall then have an opportunity at the North and
South of determining what fraction Of our popu-
lation prefer the severance the Union to the
supremacy Of the laws. Washington Repabhc.
