VXTINN'S FOUNTAIN HEAD -

w STEAM CANDY MANUFACTORY, FANCY
CONFECTIONERY, PIE AND CAKE BAKERY,
AND REFREsHMENT SALOON, Long Wharf,
between Sansome and Battery streets.
Will Just say to my patrons for their
especial benefit, some of whom have been
frequently decoyed by the near limitations
of tables, chairs Sc, Gas we'll as my system
of tickets,) by house in close proximity
to the Fountain Head, (and been so often
taken in,) that with little more attention
they can avoid the like occurrence for the
future, by just noticing the numbers on
the candy windows, Al, 49, and 7S and 80,
on the doors.
The FOUNTAIN HEAD was first estab-
lished on Jackson street, and destroyed
by fire in September 1850, reopened in
Clay street, the same month, then again
consumed by the same devastating ele-
ment on the memorable 4th Of May, 1851,
and was again opened where it now
stands, in June following, and was the first
public refreshment saloon ever started
upon the coast of the Pacific, without in
toxicatng liquors, not even glass of beer
has ever been sold upon the premises,
neither shall be. My friends advised me
to introduce the sale of liquors into my
business, as they thought it would add
much to my profits; my reply was, 1 have
hands to labor and produce what will sus-
tain life, but not to deal out that which
will destroy it. The Fountain Head, as
usual, is open from O'Clock in the morn
ing, till 10 O'Clock at night; SO that gen.
tlemen who are unable to obtain seats at
regular meal hours, may refreshments
between times, when the crowd is not so
great dec diff M. L. WINN.

Patent Broad Cast Sowing
Hf Machine.

THE undersigned, having his establish
Il ment in complete order, and having
already commenced the manufacture of
patent broad cast machines, respectfully
informs the agriculturalists of California
and Oregon, that he is now ready to re-
ceive all orders for twelve feet sowing
machines. They are better adapted to
the cultivation of grain in this State, be-
cause they distribute the gram equally,
and give the mustard seed no chance to
predominant. They can he regulated so
as to sow from one to five bushels to the
acre, as the operator may desire, and will
sow from twenty five to thirty acres per
day. The farmer who uses the apparatus
has nothing to dO but set back costly in an
arm chair attached to the back of the
carriage on springs, and to drive his
horses, as the machine regulates ITSELF
1t is so constructed that by moving brake
with the foot, the load of grain to be
sown can be taken in at any point, and
not drop kernel until the operator ar
rves at the spot where he desires to COM
mense sowing.
All the machines are warranted.
Those who wish them built will please
forward their orders, post paid, to his ad-
dress, so soon as possible, as he wishes to
know how many will be required in the
country.
