TRIAL OF REAPERS NEAR WASHING
TON
n THURSDAY, June "a.
WASHINGTON, June 10, 49,

WASHINGTON, June IS, 1852.
HAVING been informed by Filzhugh CoyIe,
esq.,, proprietor of the National Agricultural
Warehouse in this city, that G. w. Young, esq.
(whom have never known seen) desired to
purchase reaper If it could be set to work and
its operation pleased him, it has occurred to me,
and have been advised, that more convenient
and favorable opportunity for exhibiting the oper-
alton of the reaper to the people of Washing ton
including members of Congress, who are respect
fully invited, and many of whom, it is thought,
might be disposed to witness the exblbitIon--and
the farmers Of the surrounding country, could not
be presented, than would be afforded at the we'll
known and highly cultivated farm of Mr.. Young,
situated, as have been informed, opposite to the
Arsenal, south side of the Eastern Branch of the
Potomac, three or four miles from the cty--cross-
ing the Eastern Branch bridge, with good road
to the spot.
And, by way OF adding TO the interest of the
occasion, have thought proper, and have leave
respectfully to propose, that Mr.. Hgssey will
also be present with his machine on the day APP
pointed by Mr.. Young, with Mr.. Coyle, as
above,) who proposes to furnish every requisite
facility for the trial Of the two machines, and TO
purchase the one with which he shall be the most
pleased, should either suit him. And further
suggest that committee, appointed in any fair
manner, for the purpose of drawing and reporting
upon comparison Of the two machines would
meet nv appreciation. And further that. for the
purpose of testing the respective capabilities of
the two machines In cutting damp wheat, they be
upon the ground the night previous, so as to be
set to work while the dew is on in the morning.
