day the trial of II machine for, drawing 4t
stumps. rocks, &c, from the EARTH, theinvenl
ofn Mr.. W. w. Willis. The exhibitio.,
perfectly successful sahd gave great satisfact
TO those present. The machine, which is rema
ably SIMPLE. works upon the lever principle. 4
pessesses vast power. We saw tree some thin
sfeefiT beight. and eighteen inches in diamete
drawn out ofthe ground in less than five minute
with the most wonderful ease. and there can
no doubt that the sturdiest monarchs of the fore
must bend before it.-PAiiaieipkia Journal. \
