BASK OF MONTREAL AGEScE.-We learn that
the agency fol- the redemption OF the bills Of the
Bank Of Montreal, will be opened in this city in
about \ week or ten days. The rate of redemp-
tion will be not over x per cent discount, under
anT circumstances, but they Will probably redeem
at the current rates, When they are below that
figure. The object is, to have their circulation
placed on par with the best Epecte-paying cur
rancy of t. United States, and thus facilitate the
commerce between the Northwest and Canada.
Onr readers, however, mnst bear in mind that
this agency will only redeem the issues of the
Bank Of Montreal" II tue other Montreal
banks desire Western circulation they must also
redeem IN New York exchange at the current
yates.

another TRIAL Ut 2 O'Clock, Tuesday afternoon,
| in which all competitors are Invited to partic-
ipate.
Pitts Thresher and Separator has the repu-
tation among the farmers, (who hsye examin-
ed oil On e3hfbition) Of being the most COM
plete machine, In every respect. Twenty five
years ago, Hiram 4. Pitts, Esq invented and
| patented "a machine for threshing aud cleaning
grain at one operation" This Was the i17ra
Introduction Of threshing machines; and as
Mt. Pitts has devoted his whole attention,
from that period to the present time, to the
! manufacture and MmpTossment Of this machine,
1t is matter Of 10 surprise that this machine
stands now without q succeeafnl rival. In
both Europe and America It has generally
taken the highest premiums, wherever ex-
bibited. Several new and important improve
meats have been added the present season,
which can be seen upon their machine on ex,
hibition, and are fully explained by the e1-
hibitor, as well as BY their neat Illustrated cir
cula1, to which ne refer for particulars. In
what We have said Of Pitts & Co.'s machine,
VIC would not be understood ae throwing cold
water upon others on exhibition; but the ex-
preseions ale our candid opinions, after an
examination Of the several machines, and are
in nnison with the opinions Of some Of the
best farmers In the State, who have given the
;. matter deliberate and careful study.
