4 IMPORTANT TO FARMERS.
GREAT IMPROVEMENT IN
HAND TANNING MILLS.

THE patentpc, Mr., GEORGE LEACH, after twelve
years Of experimenting in the construction of fans
and grain cleaHers, has at length perfected very
simple device by which farmers can arrive at any
perfection in the selecting Of all kinds Of grain for
seed
claim for this machine that it does away with all
counter currents and gives an even uniform blast,
testing the grain by weight and not by size,
The conviction is now well grounded in tho minds
of the best scientific Of the country, tb at the
marked depreciation of the grain crops for years
back, Is owing To the degeneration of the seed sOwu,
and To the poverty of the soil aud is also the
opinion OF many that the weaviI aud other destroy
ing insects go destructive TO the crops are produces
aud matured within the Kernels thus rendered light
than the others, that they by this machine
entirely removed.
This improvement may be attached to any ordinary
tanning mill. 1t chaff much faster and clean
graiu for market more perfectly Than any machine
IL enables the farmer select from his
chant grain the soundest and heathiest berries FOR
seed
ny this means also. all grass seeds may be brought

BG~ 1t matters little or nothing to us who
Sir. CLARK appoints as his deputies in the
District. We hope the ColumJianites may
understand this. As to our doing work for
MERCUR, the Abolition Congressman, the
new organ can and may say in relation to
that matter what it best pleases the clique
that controls it. We think we understand
ourselves and the Democracy of this county
full well when we declare in favor of no man
for Congress but a straightforward, lifelong
Democrat. 1t has been intimated by the
prints down street that we will be obliged to
support some man for that office who has
lately drawn off from the Radical Abolition
ranks, whom they choose to style as Con-
servative, but we would inform them that
we lciE do no such thing No speedily con-
verted Abolitionist can have our vote or the
support of the DEMOCRAT AND STAR so long
as we own and control its columns. IF this
kind of talk is aiding the election of our
enemy, MERcUR, we can't help it.

NEW PosT MASTER. understand that
our townsman, JOHN 3. PURsEL, has been
appointed Post Master, at this place, vice
DANIEL a BEcKLEY, Radical Abolitionist,
removed. Mr.. PURsEL is styled conserva-
tive Republican and heartily sustains Presi-
dent JOHNsON's S policy. He was an appli-
cant for this office when DR.. JOHN was APP
pointed, and later, when BECKLEY received
the Office, but was unsuccessful. 1t was held
by many that Mr. BECKLEY was not entitled
TO the office, or in other words, had no claims
upon the people of Bloomsbury for any such
position ; but through the influence Of his
friend P. JOHN, in opposition to the plead
ings of those in their ranks who now control
things, he was appointed. The wishes of the
older citizens and the most influential were,
in this matter, totally disregarded. p JOHN
and his Radical clique seemed determined to
shape and run the political machine to suit
themselves and for their own wnaggrandizement
only. This thing continued for time until
his once party friends deemed his actions Inn
polite and intolerable. They then proceed
cd to bring him from off his ''gallop" to
halt, which thing they have most effect
ually done, to the satisfaction and pleasure
of large portion of the Republican party
of this county. This appointment will be
hailed with delight by allthe Conservatives,
and viii fall ike wet blanket on the Radi-
Gals who were soconspicuous so and officious in
getting the appointment for Mr.. BEcKLEY
a little over year ago. Thus ''off goes their
heads off.
