by JOHN p. NoRroN, Ma, New Haven Professor
OF Scientific Agriculture in Yale College, &C., &c
This highly valuable work will comprise two

and more than 600 engrayings wood, in the
highest style of the art, illustrating almost every
implement of husbandry now in use by the best
farmers, the best methods Of poughing, planting,
haying, harvesting, &C., &C.. the various domes-
tic animals IN their highest perfection; in short,
the pictorial feature of the book is unique, and

The work is being published in semi-monthly
numbers of 81 pages each, exclusive OF the Steel
engravlngs and is sold at 25 each, or IS for

AND
BLAcKwooD's EpNBURGH MAGAZINE (Tory).
Although these works are distinguished by the
political shades above indicated, vet but smah

jects. II is their literary character which gives
them their chief value and in that they stand con.
fessedly far above all other journals oftheir class
BIackpood, still under the mastery guidance of
Christopher NORTH maintains its ancient celebrity,
and is, at this time, unusually attractive, from the
serial works Of Bulwer and other literary notables,
written for that magazine, and FIRST appearing in
its columns both in Great Britain and in the United
States. Such works as "The Caxtons" and "My
New Novel" (both by Bulwer, "My Peninsular
Medal, ""The Green Hand, +" and other serials.
ofwhich numerous rival editions are issued by the
leading publishers in this country, have 20 be ref

Tr,ii,d Sfafes in Congress assembled The memo
rial of the undersigned respectfully represents that
they are entitled to Bounty Land, under the act
of 18th Of September, 1885, that they are informed
and believe that the INDICATED warrants are worth
more TO them than the patented lands would be,
that they do not expect or desire 70 reside on the
land thus granted; that II patented 10 them, the
expense Of agencies and taxes will be an annual
charge, reducing the value Of the grant, which
they could avoid II permitted 10 ser the warrant
Your memoriaists further represent that the law,
by preventing the sale Of the warrants, assumes
that the officers and volunteers entitled TO bounty
lands, are not competent TO act for themselves,
whereas many Of them are among the most intel
ligent and respectable citizens Of the States. They
therefore respectfully ask that the act aforesaid
may be 80 modified as 10 make the warrants for
bounty lands sssisnable, and they Will ever
