w. w. Hamer & Co.'S FIGURING Mills

The above engraving represents a portable
Grinding and Bolting Flour Mill, manufac
tured by Messrs. W. w. HAMER & Co., corner
of Western Row and Second streets, which
comprises French Burs, say three feet in
diameter; bolting-chest six feet high and
twenty feet long; two pairs of elevators two
sets of conveyors reel three feet in diam
eter, with betting and gearing ready to attach
to power; with boiling cloth made and fitted
to the reel, and the entire grinding and bolt
ing apparatus is driven by single belt,
shown under the stones at the left of the en-
craving.
The meal is carried from the stones through
chute to the spiral conveyor, by which
means it passes to the rear elevators, and is
emptied into the rear end of the reel, where
it strikes network of iron wires, which scat
ters the meal, and performs all the necessary
functions of the old English method of arran-
ging beaters within the reel.
Messrs. HAMER & Co. have patent for a
valuable contrivance for returning the mid
dlings from the reel to the stones to be re-
ground. AT the rear end of the boiling case
may be placed packing apparatus driven
by power taken from the boiling machinery.
1t is but a few years since small burr stones
became popular, and indeed it was thought
that good -four could not be made by them,
but they are rapidly gaining favor with the pub
lie, and all who have examined the subject
now concede that the best Touring mills in the
country are tho portable or small burr mills.
This firm have one of their Touring mills con-
stantly in operation at their factory, and the
-four from the same is equal to the best pre-
MUM -four We ever saw, and all who have
given it trial pronounce it to be second t.
none in this market.
This firm manufactures nine descriptions
portable mills, SO called from the fact that they
can be put in running order, and taken apar
and shipped to any desired point without in
convenience. These mills are built in a sub
stantiaI manner, and the stones are all hum
in strong iron frames.
In one of these mills the upper stone is tn
runner, and works on a universal joint, the be
\ stone being fixed. In another, the bed stone
tho runner, and is stiff on the spindle, Will
the upper stone is hung like mariners oom
pass. Another way is to run the lower ston
on a cOnical bearing point, while the uppe
stone is Fixed. In either case one Of the stone
is SO hung as to adapt itself to the other, SO a
to prevent any irregularity Of pressue between
the stones.
Tho stones made at this establishment ar
from two to four feet in diameter and the boltinl
cases are from ten to twenty -four feet in length
The entire space required for Touring mil
complete for rendering the wheat into -four ant

Fatal fray.

From the Carlyle CIlls.) Reveille, Nay 7th.l
Near Shoal Creek Station, an affair
occurred, on last Saturday, which has
since resulted in the death of one of
the parties concerned in it. 1t is as
follows:
Peter Seiferd, the keeper Of the
hotel at Breese, upon learning that a
suit had been instituted sgainst him by
the Ohio and Mississippi Railroad, for
the value of a certain amount of wood
which he had appropriated, without
proper license, to his own use, become
so exasperated, that, losing all reason,
he armed himself with a large butch.
er-knife, and, with threats the most
dire, made his way to the house of Mr..
Levi Edmonds, who, he imagined, had
been the informant against him. Up
on arriving there, he was accosted BY
Mr.. Edmonds, wife, who asked him his
business. He plainly stated his OBJ
ject, and swore that if she did not tell
him where her husband was, (Mr. E.
was in the field at the time,) he would
kill her. Becoming alarmed at his
threats, the lady fled from the house,
crying for help, persned, at the same
time, BY Seiferd. Her husband, hear
ing her cries, hastened to the rescue,
but. upon approaching the scene, waa

douglas Jerrold is signal instance
of the facilitating and degrading in

thinking, and no more. He is race
horse between the shafts of an omini-

life; it has no longer the varieties Of
vicissltnde, nor the pleasures Of want
his mind never feels the poets yearn-
ing to produce, for constant sweating

meagre and bodily poor, for it is milk
ed every night and morning. He knows
that his work il meant to be read in .

craving stomach, nor goaded by reck-
less passion. This hopeless regularity
Of mind and body destroys sill the spas

itated in style, confined in the exer-
else of ell the muscles and nerves Of

"Be still-make no nose-let me die quietly"
VICE President KN0.
"Be still ~ The hour Of the souls
departure is at hand; Earth is fading
from its vision. Time is gliding from
its presence. Hopes that cluster
around young life, that swell in the
bosom of manhood, have fallen around
it like the forest leaves, when the frosts
of autumn chilled them unto death.
Ambition with its hollow promises,
and pride with its lofty looks, have
vanished away. The world, with its
deceitfulness; pleasure, with its gilded
temptations, are gone; and aloLe, in
utter restitution OF all that time prom
Used, it must start on its solemn jour
ney across the valley Of the shadow Of
death.
"Make no noise" Let the tumult
of life cease. Let no sound break the
souls communion with itself ere it
start on its rcturnIess flight. Trouble
it not with accents of sorrow. Let
the tear stand still on the cheek of
affection; and let not the wailing of
grief break the solemn silence of the
death scene. Let it gather the ac-
cents that come from within the dark
shadows of eternity, saving to it
come home" A far off music comes
floating to it in the air. IT'S the sound
OF the heaving harps touched by view
less fngers-msr not the harmony by
the discord of earth.
"Let me die quietly" The commo-
ton of life, the strife and warning with
human destiny are over. Wealth &C
cumulated must be scattered, honors
won must be resigned; and all the
triumphs that come within the range
ofhuman achievements must be thrown
away. The past, with its trials, its
transgressions, its accumulated re-
sponsibiIities, its clinging memories, its
vanished hopes, is rendering up to the
future account-dlsturb not the quiet
Of the awful reckoning Speak not of
the fading memories, of affections whose
objects perish in their loneliness, like
the flowers of spring, or wither in
slow decay. Talk not of an earthly
home where loved ones linger, where
a seat will soon be vacant, a cherished
voice hushed forever, or of the desola-
ton that will seat itself by the hearth
stone. The soul is at peace with God +;
let it pass calmly away. Heaven is
opening upon its vision. The bright
turrets, the tall spires, the holy domes
Of the Eternal City, are emerging from
the spectral darkness, and the glory of
the Most High is dawning around
them. The white throne is glistening
in the distance, and the white ROBBED
angels are reckoning the weary spirit
to its everlasting home.
What is life that it should be chung
to longer! What are the joys of the
world that they should be regretted
What has earth to place before the
spirit of man to tempt its stay or
turn it from its eternal ?-AlJany Reg
