TNHE subscribers are now building n new Tread
/ Power, one of their own Improvement which
they have tested in connection with their COM
bined Thresher and Cleaner, and would say to
the public abroad, that they can now furnish a
more complete Two-horse Power and Thresher,
than has ever before been offered. The Power
is so geared that it runs with n very slow step
for the horses, and needs but little elevation to
give motion to the Thresher and Cleaner.
The Power and Winnower is connected by one
straight belt, running it us an Overshot Machine,
making 1t an Improvement over the Undershot
one, by its not being so liable to carry through
stones sticks, &c, that may be gathered up with
the grain. No other combined Thresher and
Winnower is so simple, and easily put into, oper-
alton. Its extreme width is feet length ii
feet; height 3 feet; and weighs about 800
pounds The Threshcr, Rake, Separator and
Winnower, are arranged in one strong frame, SO
that the machine is shipped in one piece, and
moved when set for use without being taken
apart The Revolving Rake is so arranged, that
as the grain is fed in and passed from the cylin-
der, II divides the straw from the grain and car
ries it through and over a Separator or Shaker,
obviating great difficulty that other Winnow-
ers are liable to- in carrying over grain with the
straw, which has heretofore been so much COM
planned Of
With two medium sized horses or mules, they
will both thresh and clean, and in such manner
that the common Fanring Mill is dispensed with
entirely two men and two boys will thresh and
bag $50 to IT'S bushels of wheat, or 800 bushels
of oats per day, with ease.
There are two sizes of these machines. The
large size, or No. | is generally run by lever
power. Either of these machines can be run with
any lever power. The No. Machine, with 2
or horses to lever power, with or hands,
will thresh and bag 200 to 225 bushels of wheat
per day, ready for market. These machines are
warranted to give satisfaction.

cans, &c, complete, $3.50.

Also on hand and for sale the celebrated
BRALEY & PITTS
THRESHER AND CLEANER

AS large Thresher and Cleaner, this machine
is warranted to be the very best in use. With
or horses and 9 or 10 hands, they will thresh
and clean, ready for market, from 400 to 500
bushels of wheat per day. These machines are
made out Of the beat materials and warranted
to give satisfaction, if properly managed. Or

marched with the soldiers. There he got sick

EASTERN BANk.-The following note. dated
May 5th, is from the Cashier of this Bank
He writes TO us as follows:
II notice that the Portland papers advise
the refusal of all bills on tue Eastern Bank,
Bangor, "as the counterfeits can be told from
the genuine with the utmost difficulty
Now this may be all right and proper, and
the best advice that you can give, but 1 fail 10
see Ii in that light.
There are no counterfei.s on this bank ex-
cept fires, and can tell the counterfeit as far
of as Portland is from Bangor. The coun-
ferieit frees are a miserable imitation OF the
genuine, printed on miserable paper, not such
as is used by any bank. The number of the
bill in counterleits is put in with a pen, while
the genuine are engraved, and the Presidents
signature is engraved, while that of the Cash
ier's Is miserable imitation. But the whole
thing can be put into nutshell. All our
notes, of every denomination, have checked
bdeksS'green backs"-while the counterfeit
has none, aud | never saw a counterfeit bill in
my life that had a checked back. Any bill,
therefore, purporting TO be on the Eastern
Bank with plain back, is counterfeit, while
all notes with checked or green backs are
good as old gold.
Very respectfully, your obt. servant.
