 "Peasant, genial, delightful Old Knick! Thy name is suggestion of all things delectable; the sight Of thy modest fresh cover, balm of spiritual sore eyes; glance within thee, best an tidote for the blues. Thou hast given to kindly humor, to piquant delineations, and to side splitting fun, local habita- tion,' without which they might go wandering over the domain of letters, calling now and then where a friendly door opened to them, but refusing to be comforted for the loss of their old dear home. Courier, Burlin gton, Verm0nt. "The great care evinced in the selec- ton of articles that adorn it's pages, is a sufficient guaranty that no contribution meets the eye of the reader but those which are known to be worthy of his perusal. When storms and wild tenn pests are sweeping OCT our hillside vil- Iages these chill winter hours, and deso- late without; we ask for no more agree able companion than the Knicker6ocker; for while it's contents impart valuable information, its sallies of genuine wit and sovereign specific for all fits of the blues or attacks of the horrors, and time passes merrily on. ."-Democrat, Doyies- toaCH, Pa.

Patent Plantation Corn Mill.
J. BURROWS

.THlS Mill differs from all others in the con l structloD of the Upper or Runner Stone, which is composed of French Burr Blocks, euclosed in Cast Iron Case, that forms the back and hoop of the Stone, with Cast Iron Eve, or Bush, that is of greater external diam eter al the bottom than at the top this Is secured Q the back by four bolts, so that every block IS in the form of dove~tail. This gives greater strength to a Stone than any other method which is required in small mills, where the Stone is run with great speed, and becomes dangerous If not strongly made. 1t also gives any weight to a Stone of small diameter that is required without having 1t thick or hlgh, which makes it top heavy.
 This milf is square frame made; of wood or cast iron, in the form of busk with Bridge rec, Spindle, Balance Rine, Driver, and Regulating Screw, and grinds upon the same principle as large mill differing only in the Runner Stone; this being of great weight, ena- bles 1t to grind, more of grain with less power than any other mill; is portable and may be at tached to Steam Water, Horse or Hand power. Jos. H. BURRows of Cincinnati, Is the inven- tor, for which he obtained Letters Patent in l642. For all infriagements, the purchaser will be held responsible for the right of using.
 These Mills do not require a millwright to set them up; and all that Is necessary to put them in operation, Is to attach band to the pulley on the spindle, With drum suthcieaty large to run the 24 inch Mill 240 revolutions per minute, attached to Gin, Water. or Steam Power. By the steady application or two horse power, the Mill will grind six or eight bushels per hour, of good meal; and will grind Wheat as well as Corn The 30 inch mill, if put to its fullest speed, will grind from 10 to l5 bushels per hour.
 These mills are warranted to be in every respect as represented.
 Having been appointed sole agents for the sale of the above Mills, in this section of coun- try we will keep constantly on hand the differ snt sizes, and will furnish planters upon as reasonable terms as can be had in Cincinnati or New Orleans.

 OF THE A M E RIG AN WHIG REVIEW

ENHE AMERICAN WHIe REVIEW is - published Monthly, at No. 12G Mas sau street, New York. Each number contains ninety-six pages of reading matter, and includes portrait of some distinguished man, usually selected from Living American Statesmen.
 The Review will set forth and defend the principles of the UNITED WHIG PARTY of the Union. It will attack those principles of the opposite party which are preiudicia to the interests of the Nation. It will deal with individ- uals as little as possible, always regard ing them as secondary to the principles they represent. Its past course is a sufficient guaranty against its becoming the organ of any faction; at the same time, its pages, as heretofore, will always l>e open to the expression of Whig senti- ments from every quarter of the Union. The Review will maintain the front rank in the various departments of cur rent Literature, and will not disappoint those readers who have heretofore been accustomed to look to foreign sources for information or amusement.
 The Publisher acknowledges with high qualification and hearty thanks the warm and spontaneous interest which the friends of the REVIEW have manifes- ted for its success since the reduction ol it's terms. He takes pleasure in saying that the list of the REVIEW has been aug mented by one half since July, encour- aged by the formation of voluntary clubs, he now offers the final

 AN IMMENSE PEACH ORcHARD.-A gentleman named Davis, residing in Clermont, Ohio, has a peach orchard of 100 acres, containing l7,00O trees. MT Davis, it itappears, left Philadelphia few years ago and purchased his present farm-then considered the poorest one in the neighborhood- and set it out with peach trees of twenty different varieties from New Jersey. As the farmers in that vicin- ity had tried for several years previ- ous to raise peaches for market, and had uniformly failed, they consider ed the experiment of Mir. Davis a foolish one, and even went so far as to appoint a committee to wait on him and advise him to abandon it. as it would certainly ruin him. He persevered. however, notwithstand- ing 5000 of his trees died soon after being planted. This was six years ago. In 1850 he gathered bis first crop, from which h he realised suffi- cient to pay for his farm and trees, and to leave him $500 on hand. This season about 5000 of these tree are bearing, and already 7,500 have been sold at over $l per basket. His net profits this season are estimated al $25,O00.

THE JUDICIARY FIRM.-The High Court of Appeals of Mississippi have refused the application for rehearing of the case decided by the court below in favor of the Union Bank bonds The highest judicial authority in the State, has thus affirmed the validity of the bonds, the liability of the State, and the illegality of their repudiation. It exalts our reverence for the Judicial office when we see it maintaining it's sacred allegiance to justice in disre- gard of popular error or popular clam or. Itremains to be seen whether the people enlightened by the opinions of the Bench will now ratify the .judg- ment of the Court by electing a Legis- ture which will make provision for li- quidating the bonds.
