TREBLE PATENT IMPROVED EYE
let Machine.


First patent combined on one stock
Second patent, selffeedng in the eyelets.
Third patent, patent improved fastener, rivetine
both sides.
All parties in want Of good Eyelet Machine
are strongly recommended TO use none but " Lip
mans Patent Improved" which is decidedly the
best ever brought before the public, possessing
numerous advantages, viz:
It is strong, durable, and not liable to get out OF
order.
1t punches the hole well and to fit the Eyelet,
and in one operation clinches the Eyelet on both
sides.
II saves time, as the papers, &c, need not be
reversed or turned over to clinch the Eyeet a
second time, as is the case with all other ma
chimes.
Il is useful to the merchant in filing away
papers, well as to the attorney or conveyancer,
the shoemaker, tailor, milIner, and numerous
others, and is a very labor-saving machine.

NEW Yong, Sept. II

New YoRx, Sept. IL.
The steamship Empire City, Capt. II. Win.
die, arrived to day from New Orleans, whence
she sailed on the morning Of the Sd inst, en-.
tered the marlboro Havana at sunrise on the 9th,
coaled and lefs the same afternoon for New
York.
The Empire City encountered very thick
weather on the coast, having been enveloped
in dense fog for the last four hours. She brir gs
30 passengers-28 fiom Havana, and from
New Orleans.
The Havana papers furnish detailed accounts
OF the raVages of the late hurricane which, in
certain parts of the island, and especially at
Sagua in Grande, caused great destruction of
property, both adoat and ashore.
The gale commenced on the 9th, reached
its height on the 2H.h, and moderated on the
Goth.
At Sagua in Grande one English and six
American vessels were driven ashore. the
crews were saved, but the vessels are total
loss
The light house at Olrdenas was swept away,
ami there, as well as at Matanzas and Sagua,
much damage was done to the crops.
The ship Rubic0n Packet, from Boston for
New Orleans, put into Havana on the 9Th, ha-
wing sustained great damage in the gale Of the
9th, and, 1t was thought, would be condemned
Also the brig Marie, from port in st. Do
mingo, likewise crippled.
The yellow fever is reported TO be on the de.
cline, and indeed no new cases are heard of
since the hurricane.
