E"Talk about mean men !' said old
Fax. "Why there's that Bill Johnston,
he's the meanest man ever saw-Bill was
constable here. Why don't you think he
had an execution against me for a
little matter of groceries, and he came out
and levied on my old woman's ducks, and
wanted me to drive 'em up and catch 'em
for him, and l told him to catch 'em him
self; and SO he chased 'em round and round
the house, and every time he'd catch duck,
he'd sit down and wiring its head of, and
charge mileage"

THE LIGHTEsT MACHINE IN USE.
THE MOWER weighing only six hundred
i and thirty-nine pounds, and the Reaper
| eight hundred and eight pounds.
LIeHTEsr DRAFT-So SIDE DRAFT.
Requiring one-third less draft than any Other
machine, as numerous tests at trials with the
| Dynamometer. and the testimonials of farmers
abundanily show.
sroSGEsr AND MOST DURABLE MACHINE.
Being all IRON, except seat, and the weight SO
distributed as to give the greatest amount OF
strength with the least weight of iron. The
Castings are made OF Salisbury iron, and the
finger-bar is of wrought iron. with fange on
the front edge, thus giving it great strength
with light weight.
NO PRESSURE UPON THE HORSES NEcKs.
The weight of the driver counterbalancing
the weight of the front of the frame, and throw
ing the whole upon the driving-wecl.
sELF-ADJusrING FINGER BAR.
In this respect it is entirely unequaled by
any machine vet produced. The finger bar
works up and down independently of the driv-
ing-wheel, enabling it to go through dead fur
rows and bitches, among stones and bogs. and
over knolls and hills, where no other machine
can follow it. 1t can also be set to work at
any height from two to eighteen inches, and
the change can be made in an instant, thus
adopting it to all kinds of work, whether now
ing or reaping. or gathering grass or clover
seed.

RA man named David Curry shot
and killed another man at Batavia, N. Y,
one day last week, and on being brought
into court pleaded not gnilty. While the
attention of the court and the officers in at
tendance was attracted by other business,
the prisoner, who until that moment ap-
peared very quiet, suddenly leaped out of
the prisoners box and struck his brother
in-law in the face, knocking Lin down.
Curry was secured and taken to Jail.

TO the United States.

Points of Excellence as a Reaper.

1st. 1t has all the advantages that the Now
er has in the gearing, connecting rcd, and draft
for the horses.
I'd. The grain is delivered at the side, so that
a whole field can be cut without taking it up.
3D.. The drivers seat is the same as on the
Mower. affording Him free view of the opera
tions OF the machine
4th. The raker stands at the rear of the plat
form, which is the best position for delivering
the grain.
5th. The raker with one motion. throws the
grain to tn, side. then delivers it in the rear !:
grain from one gravel TO another.
9Th The platform can readily he raised or
lowered to suit all kinds of grain or ground, by
means of two screws al near side. and slot at off
side, when off platform.

tity of water, with a little sugar, uii the
stones slip out.
trr CORN CAKE.
Three cups of sour milk, two spoons of

teaspoon of soda and cinnamon.
Three cups of sugar, three eggs, one cup
of butter, one cup of milk, a spoon of soda

o little more milk.
--- PUDDIYGs IN HASTE.
Chop your suet, and put with the grated
bread few currants, the yolks Of four
eggs, and the whites of two, some grated
lennon peel and ginger. Mix and make
it into little balls about the size and shape
of an egg, with little -four. Have ready
a skillet of boiling wafer. and throw them
in. Twenty minutes will boil them: they
will rise to the top when done. Serve
them up with sweet sauce.
-z Cranberry PIE.
Cranberry pies need very little spice. A
little nutmeg, or cinnamon, improves them.
they need a great deal of sweetning. 1t is
well TO stew the sweetning with lhem.-
When cranberries are strained, and added
to about their own weight in sugar, they
make very delicious tarts. No upper
crust.
INK SPOTS.
IF soaked in warm milk before the ink
has chance to dry, the spot may be usu-
ally be removed. If it has dried in rub
table salt upon it, and drop lemon juice
upon the salt. If lennon cannot be OBJ
tanned. vinegar, will answer. White soap.
diluted with vinegar is good thing to take
out ink spots.
TO TAKE OUT PITCH, TAR, RESIN, PANT, ETC.
If any ofthese happen to ge. on gar
ment, either linen or woolen, pour little
alchohol on the place, and let it soak in
about half an hour. Then rub it gently,
and you will find the alcbohol has soaked
out the gluttinous quality, so that it viii
easily crumble out.
CEMENT FOR CHINA Or GLASS.
With small camel-hair brush, rub the
broken edges with little carriage-oil var
nish; and if neatly put together, the frac-
ture will hardly be perceptible, and when
thoroughly dry will stand both fire and
water

The huffman & Miller
MOVING MACHINE,
To which was awarded the LIST Premium,a a Sold
Medal and Diploma. at the great National
Trial at Syracuse. n. Y. July, 1851.
MAyUFACTURED By
C. AULTMAN, g. CO.,
CANTON, OHIO.
The following are some Of its points
of excellence as a Mower.

lst. 1t has not one pound OF side draft.
I'd. 1t has no more weight on the tongue, OF
horses neck, than a wagon.
Sd, Its draft is only 275 pounds-so reported
by the Committee at the Ohio State Trial, 1857.
4tb. 1t runs on two wheels which serve as
drivers.
5ih 1t has an adjustable cutter bar and ac-
commodities itself To sA uneven surface Of the
ground.
9th. The cutter bar is iu the front of the driv-
ing wheels. and the seat in the rear. Thus ena-
bling the driver to See the operation Of the cut
tiers without interfering with his driving. Also,
avoiding all danger of falling into the knives.
7th. The driving wheels have no cogs on them
but drive the gearing by means of pals and
sth By means Of these pals and ratchets,
the knives cease to vibra!e in backing the ma
chine.
9th. The driver, while in his seat. can see ev-
cry bolt, box, and all the gearing while the ma
chine is in motion.
10th. The gearing is all permanently arrang-
ed in the centre of the frame. distant from the
driving Wheels thus avoiding all tendency Of
its being claggcd up with mud or dirt thrown
up by the drivers.
llih. The cutter bar being attached to the
machine by means of hinges, can be folded up
ing rod, knife or track cleaner.
18th. The pals on the driving wheels can
he readily thrown out of gear, and by folding
the cutter bar rs above stated, renders the ma
chine as portable as common cart.
18th. There is wheel on the shoe next the
gearing in trout of the cutter bar. thus avoiding
clogging at the near shoe in passing over cut
grass.
18th. The off shoe is only 21s inches wide,
and the last knife cnis no more"than any other
therefore leaving no ridge or high stubble a,
the end of each swath.
18th. The cutter bar can be raised or lowered
by means fan adjustable steel spring shoe at
off end. and slot in the near shoe where the
wheel is attached.
10th. There are no nuts or screws at the con-
Meeting rod. which are always liable TO cause
more or less trouble by jerking loose. but use a
glib with spring pail and ratchet key; there
by avoiding all possible chance of shaking
loose

Stomach, Nausea, Indigestion, Pam ia and Morbid
Isaction Of the Bocels, F7atuie,acy, Loss Of Appe-

Something to Impart and Something to
Learn

1t is related of reverend clergyman
who lived In Vermont some forty yesrs
ago, that he was on such friendly and iu-
innate terms with his parishoners that
he would sometimes indulge in freedoms
not altogether in character with the gray-
ity of department so essential to the
maintenance Of clerical dignity aud res
pect. On one occasion, previous to COM
mencing religious worship, be called the
attention of his hearers to subject which
weighed heavily on his mind.
Il have" said he, something to in
part and something to learn. There is
one thing which ! know that you do not
know; there is one thing which you know
that | do not know; and there is one thing
which neither of Us knows. First, as
was coming over the hedge | tore my
breeches-this know, but you did not
know. Second, whether you will give me
cloth enough to make new pair-this
you know, hut DO not know; and third,
what will the tailor charge to make them.
This latter is what neither of US knows" !"
