Two Styles of Horse Powers

NINE-TENTHS of all the Threshing
IN Machines in use In this country belong to tho
"ESDLEss APRON" class 1. O., they have tho
arrangement OF the " Endless Apron" or Canvas
Grain Carrier" "beaters' and "pickers" in COM
mon. Machines Of this style, having the same
general form and somewhat similar appearance,
are made in nearly hundred different factories,
large and small. Yet machines from these differ
emit factories differ as much in real quat,tes as 90
different makes Of wagons, cloth, leather cutlery
catches engines Hence the Importance OF care
on the part Of the farmer and the thresherman IN
making their selections. Some are practically
cheaper at q thousand than others OF three hun
dred dollars yet thore is not more than hundred
dollars difference between the prices of the best
and the poorest.
.. Aultman & Co.'s "Sweepstakes' is
the accredited head and front Of this great class
and its superior strength, durability, simplicity,
ease of draft, style Of finish, and capacity for
threshing and cleaning grain are acknowledged.
It has been for eighteen years favor
ite, and for several years without peer.
1t has led the van of Improvement
and revolutionized the style and quality of work
bestowed upon threshing machines.
It is more widely known and esteem
cd than any other The names Of sc. Aultman
Co." and SWEEPSTAKES" are household words
from Maine to California.
Our circulars contain the names Of
over five thousand five hundred men in the North
west alone who have purchased it and used tan
evidence OF its standard character which should
not be overlooked.
The great reputation achieved by this
favorite machine has led several INSCRIPTIONS
manufacturers, and numerous agents, to attach
the name "SwEEPsfAKEs," in one way and
another, to their machines and advertisements to
mislead and deceive.
To avoid deception, look for the card
&C. AULTMAN & Co., Manufacturers, CANTON,
ONO" in gilt letters, conspicuously, on both sides
Of the machine.
If you want to buy q spurious Sweep
stakes, because you can get 1t for "poor pay
or on "long time" do it with your eyes open
That is the way they get rid Of inferior machines
The genuine Sweepstakes" con-
tains many valuable pecuttdrities of construction
as well as Patented Improvements not to be found
In any other machine whatever.
1t is the acknowledged Leader of the
great Endless Apr0n" or Canvas Grain Car
Ter" branch of the threshing machine family,
which has for more than thirty years threshed and
cleaned the grain Of the country.
i More SWEEPSTAKES are being
BUILT for this year than ever before. Improves
ments have been added, and its acknowledged
position at the head of its class will be fully
main tanned in the future as in the past.

FRENCH RooFs-A VALUABLE SUGGEs-
TON Editors Country Gentleman: 1t has
been suggested by friend that the new
style of French roof, which is becoming so
common both in city and rural architecture,
might be turned to profitable account and
at the, same time insure an amount of
beauty and convenience that is well worth
considering. aazF~gs gTEg
The suggestion is, to have the covering Of
coarse, strong glass, in place of slate OF
shingles and thus, by the admission of
light and heat, this part of the house would
become an admirable conservatory, where
fruits or flowers would flourish in the rank
est luxuriance. In city houses especially,
water could readily be introduced in so
convenient manner as to insure the pro-
per degree of humidity, while the simplest
possible arrangement would secure ample
ventilation: Grapes of all kinds, dwarf
fruit trees of plum, apricot, peach, &c.,
could be readily grown, as well as all kinds
of flowers, and the attic of ones house be-
come the most profitable and delightful fea-
ture of the domain. .gsuyn
Glass, suitably cast, could be more cheap
~ produced and applied than slate or even
good shingles, and would be quite as strong
and durable as either. The introduction Of
coloring material would add very slightly
to the cost, and could be applied with
charming effect.-J. B. Ollie, DelaaOart

Louisville, KY.
In Louisville, KY, on the ed instant the
market was buoyant; receipts liberal and
prices maintained. We take the following
from the last number of a Louisville circular
"In our last circular January 4th) we re-
ported the market active and firm for all ma
nufacturng qualities of old tobacco. This
feeling has continued to the present. The sup
ply is not equal to the demand, consequently
we have 4 better feeling for sweet filters and
wrappers. The recelptS OF tne ne" crop are
not large for the last ten days. Owing to the
bad roads planters are unable to get their crops
| TO market.
.sWe find that the most of the crop that is
arriving is of poor quality and not desirable
however, we believe that the planters are
sending forward their worst and keeping back
their best for the last.
Good motley leaf is much wanted for
wrappers, and this kind brings good prices:
The same may be said Of good heavy boiled
SOnr planters cannot be too Careful in Sc
lecting and classifying their tobaccos. AS 4
general thing the new crop comes TO market
in very high order and badly assorted, in
many cases leaf, Tugs, and trash, all in one
sample"

How E. A. POLLARD WAS APPOINTED
A member of the Committee on Retrench-
ment recently addressed letter to Secre-
,sry McCulloch inquiring on what recon-
nendation and by what influence Z. A. Pol
lard, Of Virginia, author Of "The Lost
Cause" was appointed as an officer in the
New York custom house, what his salary was,
&c. The Secretary replied that the records
Of his department; showed that Mr.. Pollard
vas nominated b. Collector Smythe on the
9TH Of October, 1868, as e clerk, salary
$1,000 per annum, and the nomination was
approved October Il, 1868. Tn the 26th
Of December last the Collector nominated
another person in the place of Mr.. Pollard,
when action was approved by the Secre-
terv Two days aticrNard. Collector Smythe,
in his letter to Secretary McCulloch, says
that Pollard was appointed TO Office by him,
having Influential endorsement in his
favor, with good deal OF persistence on
his own part, from which Pollard was re-
moved as soon as he Collector Smythe)
learned something Of his antecedents, Of
which he had previously heen in ignorance.
The name given 20 ;im IN the first in
STAGE, and by which be was nominated to
the Secretary 0! the Treasury, was Z. M.
Pollard, which also misicl him as to the
CHARACTER OF the individual. The Collector

WAsHBoARDs .-Washboards that are
made of wood soon wear so that the CORFU
gated surfaces are Of but little benefit in
cleansing clothes from dirt, &c., and no
washing machine has yet been introduced
that cleanses garments 80 well that hand
rubbing is unnecessary consequently the
little plea for washboard that is attached
to, and forms part of, the machine soon
wears so as to be useless. As this portion
cal mot be replaced without considerable
expense, and to save this needless expense,
I would say that the corrugated surface can
be recut by the use Of 9 half-inch gouge
chisel in the hands Of a common mechanic.
An old board thus operated upon is as good
as new. A dollar saved is dollar earned.

How TO REPAIR CHAIN PUMP.-EditorS
Country Gentleman, If the tube has got
worn too large for the chain, SOFT will not
raise the water properly, procure some
light sole or heavy harness leather, cut into
circular washers trife larger than the
buckets make hole or slit in the centre
take the chain apart and slip on one of the
washers next above the bucket, having it
fit snugly. There should be only four or
FIVE to any well, no matter what the depth is,
as if more than two are in the tube at once,
when drawing the suction will be too great.
Trial will show how large the washers
should be left. A most efficient means of re-
pairing worn out simultaneously. j.

Intentional UnderpayIaent OF Post

age.
The question as to the proper disposition
of mail matter deposited in postoftice in
tentionally underpaid having been often
submitted to US, and being one likely to often
arise, we have addressed the Department
on the subject, and received the following
reply, which will serve as guide to all
who may be in doubt upon the subject:
..r..-- " 18th June, 1867.
Sir,-In reply to yours of the oath in
slant have to say that the spirit of the
postal Law requires the full prepayment Of
postage, as indicated by section 242, and
that the modification contained in section
252 was only intended to cover cases Of IN
aduertance or ignorqnce, and should not be
applied to cases where the full prepayment
is aOiyu!ly and Anoooingly eoithheld.
SIN other cords: In ordinary cases,
where one full rate shall have been prepaid
the amount omitted should be rated up as
an uDdercharge, and the letter forwarded
to its destination, as directed by section Isl
| of the regulations but in the case of E7o,o1
intentional and aoi!ftlL omission, the letters
should be held for postage; and if not paio
by the mailing party, returned to the dead,

Bold ROBBERY IN NEW YoRK-ARREsT
"f TIE IHIEF AHD RECOVERY OF THE
A"NhY.-Ihe bo,Lest robbery ever COM
mltted in New ! ork took place at the Park
Bank, On Broadway, at half-past 9 O'Clock
On Saturday morning. Two or three men
entered the bank while the clerks were
preparing Tor the business Of the day, and
without attracting attention passed to the
rear. One Of the clerks had taken large
amount Oh money out Of the safe.and piled
il up on his table. It was done up in bun
dies Of various amounts. Some of these
tuIdles rested against the large plate glass
fronting the desk, which it vas supposed
would be adequate protection against
thieves. The janitor was in the front of
the building with the cashier, and the
cIe,ks we're all attending to their duties
behind, the railing, when suddenly a
loud crash was heard, and the break
ing of glass resounded through the room.
The startled clerks looked in the direc-
ton Of the noise and saw young man
reach through the broken glass and take
cut roll of billy, with which he fled out
Of the Ann-street entrance. Mr.. Ryder
and Mr.. Barry, attaches Of the bank, and
number OF other persons, quickly started
IN pursuit.
When Mr.. Ryder reached the street the
thief had about hundred yards start, and
was going down Ann street toward Nassau.
The cry OF "Stop thief" vas taken up,
ani large numbers joined in the chase.
The thief turned into Nassau, and down
Fulton street. Ryder gained steadily on
him until he reached Dutch street, when
ne slipped the money FROM under his arm
!, and let it fail 10 the ground, hoping thereby
40 stop the pursuit. mir. Ryder did stop
and pick up the money, but Mr.. Barry
AePt on, aud in time gained on the thief.
Down Fulton TO Gold, and through Gold
TO Maiden lane the chase continued, when
The strength of the thief gave out, and OH
GER John Kohler, Of the second precinct,
took him in charge. The thief gave the
name Of Thomas Cs Pinto. He is about
twenty-five years Of age, and five feet eight
inches high. The package stolen contained
.bout $4,000, all of which was recovered.
The glass was broken by an iron plate
Stout half an inch thick, foot in circum-
erence, and of octsgonal shape. 1t had
evidently been made for the purpose, as
arge handle, semi-cireular in shape, had
'scen;ly been riveted to it. When the glass
'a6 broken this instrument fell to the floor,
'ldlng TO the noise and alarm.
