THE IMPROVED DRILL"
For Seeding
WHEAT, GIANQ. AND GRASS SEEDS.

V1HE IMPROVEMENTS consist in part =
Il LIST, In an enlarged and convenient Qua
no Box.
%. The employment Of Staples (instead of
scrapers, or the broad spuds formerly used) to
clean the outlet holes, and stir the Guano more
thoroughly, and keep ii loose.
3D.. An Improvement in the relation of the
outlet holes in the sheet-iron bottom and the
holes in the regulating slipe, which diminshes
the liability to clog in the holes as the guano
leaves the bottom.
Attn. The lids OF both the Grain and Guano
boxes are raised in the centre, at point of their
meeting, so as to throw the water or dampness
each way, preventing its getting into the boxes.
9th. Extra care taken in fitting up the Grain
Distributor, to prevent any lost mUtion, and
thus insure more steady stream of grain.
These Improvements cover all objections ever
heretofore made to the Drill and it is conf
IDENTIFY believed that in connection with its
heretofore universally admitted advantages
over all others, it must be the FAV0RITE
DRILL.

Tubes and either with or without grass seed
sewers attached. The STUDIED are most gene

" WIS combination OF Peruvian and the
Il Phosphate Guano was first recommended
by me more than sir gears ago, and very sue
cessfully used by many planters and farmers in
this State, though several dealers in Baltimore
city have pretended TO be its inventors If
this statement be denied, | have abundant
proof Of its correctness.
A long experience as a practical planter and
farmer, with a constant analytical examina-
ton for more than ten years, of every kind of
manure sold in our market, advantages pos
sessed by none others in the trade, will ena-
bic me always to furnish those, who may IA
vor me with their orders, with the best, purest.
and therefore the cheapest Manures
Farmers, planters and others will be furnish
ed with all the Guanos sold in our market
Also, with PLASTER OF PARIS and PURE
or MAGNESIAN LIME, according to the
wants Of the soil-and too much care cannot
be taken in adapting the proper lime to soils ::
for the want of this, thousands of dollars have
been annually lost to our State. Also, the
following artificial Manures:

FERTILIZER, an admirable top-dressing for
wheat, oats or grass, which has been very sue
cessiuly used, and prevents, to great extent,
the wheat from being straw-fallen where the
wheat is pale, sicllly or yellow it at once
changes 1t to a bright, healthy green, and ra-
pidly increases its growth, and greatly pro-
notes the yield
All manures sold in our markets are liable
to differ naturally, though coming from the
same place and bearing the same mark. Still
more are they liable to aduheyatioa, &c. and
for these things 0ar Inspection System has neuer
| Afforded da adequate projection.
All Manures sold by me will have my name
! stamped on each bag or barrel be carefully
analysed, and for their purity the buyer is
! pledged tegdt guarantee and my perS0nath honor.
The Manures sold by me will be at the same
rate as those Sold by others in the trade
Persons wishing to obtain any of the Ma
nures manufactured by me, or any others OF
my selection, should so specify in their orders
to their agents in Baltimore

employed in rifle factory, was blown
almost to pieces while testing eight rife
barrels. The scene in the room is de-
scribed as having been so horrible as
nearly to deprive the occupants-three
IN number besides the deceased of their
senses. One ball had entered his abdo-
men, passing thence upward through his
chest and head. one trayersed his right
arm to the shoulder, and others entered
his head, scattering his brains over the
entire apartment and its occupants
Pieces of bis skull were blown into Mr.
Finneys' face with such force that they
could only be extracted by means of pin
GERS. A young man named John Brad
ley, who was standing beside the deceas-
cd at the time, in STOPPING posture, re-
ceived one of the balls through his cap,
which must have killed him had he been
erect.
