VTNIE Prop ietors of this establishment now pre-
l. pared to furnish the Planters Of Virgna with the
most celebrated Premium PLOWS and AGRlCUL-
TURAL TOOLS in the United States.
They have at a great expense, secured Twenty diff
ierent Patterns of I1ows-AIso, CU 1T ATORS, ,
ROAD SCRAPERS, and nine different sizes of BAY
CUTTERS Our Plows consist of the Peekskill, New
York so Premium; Eagle $50 Premium; and the
Genuine Livingston county Plows. We have improved
the Livingston Plow which makes it worth at least 30
per cent more than the original patterns. 1t consists
in the manner in which the landslide Is attached to the
nouldboard-doing away with the lock- which weakens
the strength of the Plow. The form of the Plow is mol
changed but greatly increased in strength BY the i'm
wovement.
Our experience in the of Building Agriculture
Tools and our superior patterns, induce to believe
we ca furnish the best Pows in the State, at prices not

PROSPECTUS OF THE

i spectfully give notice that the Sixth Volume of
this valuable journal commenced on the twenty firsi
OF September Offering favorable opportunity for ell
to subscribe who take interest in the and
development of the Mechanics, Arts, and Manufac.
lures Of country The character of the Scientific
American is too well known throughout the country
to require detailed account of the various Subjects
discussed through its columns.
The aim of the publishers is and has been to render
it the most thorough and useful scientific journal in
the country and to judge of this by comparing it's
circulation and influence with other publications of
the same Glass; they have unequivoca evidence of it's
value, as the leading exponent of the Arts and Sci
ences

on fne white paper afording at the end of the year
an Illustrated Encyclopedia of over four hundred
pages, with an index, and from five to six hundred
original Engravings, described by letters of refer

concerning the progress of Scientific and Mechanical
improvements, Chemistry, Civil Engineering. Manu-

WASHINGTON CITY, April 20, 1S49.
MI freeman Hunt.-sIR: owe you many thanks
for the opportunities have had to the
Magazine and have found 1t in reality to be Maya
zine, and that we'll replenished, of all the useful
with fulness and clearness which delights while it
instructs. 1t is, in fact, merchants magazine in
the large acceptaton of the term-merchants who 20
between nations, whose large operations bring many
departments of knowledge and view of the state Of
the world, into daily requisitioD But it is not the
great merchant only, but the one of more modest,
but nevertheless, of most useful operstions-the
merchant OF the interior aso-whO will find this ma
gazine to abound with the information the pursuit
of his business and the elevation of the mercantile
character requires. Nor its utility at all confined
to merchants but extends to the legislator and dpo-
matist, and to all who are charged with managing
the affairs Of the nation. For myself, have found
it most useful to me in my senatorial labors, and
have been in the habit for many years of carefully
consulting it.
Very respectfully, sir, your obedient servant

THE GREAT BRITISH QUARTERLIES
l. AND BLACKWOOD'S MAGAZINE.

Important reduction in the rates of post
age! LEONARD SCOTT & Co., No. 81,
Gold street, New York, continues to publish
the following British Periodicals, viz:
The London Quarterly review, (Conser-
vative,)
The Edinburgh Review, (Whig,)
The North British Review, Gree Church.
The Westminster Review, Liberal, and
Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine, (Tory.)
Those Reprints have now been in sue
cessful operation in this country for twenty
years, and their circulation is constantly
on the increase, Notwithstanding the COM
petition they encounter from American Pc
riodicals Of similar class, and from nu-
merous Eclectics aid Magazines made up
Of selections from foreign periodicals.
This fact shows clearly the high estimation
in which they are held by the intelligent
reading public, and affords guarantee
that they are established On firm basis,
and will be continued without interruption.
Although these works are distinguished
by the political shades above indicated, yet
but small portion Of their contents is de-
voted to political subjects. It is their
literary character which gives them their
chief value, and in that they stand con-
fessedly far above all other journals of
their class. Blackwood, 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 the United States. Such works
as " The Cations and "My New Novel"
(both by Bulwer,) "My Peninsular Medal"
The Green Hand" and other serials, of
which numerous rival editions are issued
by the leading publishers in this country
have to be reprinted by those publishers
from the pages of Blackwood, after it has
been issued by Messrs. Scott & Co., SO that
subscribers to the reprint Of that Magazine
may always rely on having the earliest
reading of those fascinating tales.
