HADESsviLLE, KY, June %, 1870.
EDITORS CHRONICLE; I have recently
learned of reports going the rounds, in
reference to the celebrated Johnston Self
raking Reaper" TO the effect that had, on
my farm, two or three of them thrown by
as worthless and of no account. The truth
il, that for the last and the present har-
vest, have purchased five Johnston Ma
chimes, for my several different farms, and
have used no other than the Johnston,
and do not desire to use any other BELLE
wing, as do, land as can be demonstrated
to any thinking man, that there is no
other machine that can compare with u In
handling grain. in all the variety of dlffi-
cult circumstances to which our grain is
liable to be found In ut harvest, and espe-
ciallyin seasons like the present. am
credibly informed that these reports have
sprung from parties tn the Interest Of the
"Wood" Machine. And now make this
offer to any agent or owner of the Wood
machine: Let them go with the two ma
chimes into the worst piece of lodged or
tangled grain that can be found within ten
miles, or more, of the city of Clarksville,
and make the trial before a committed of
I'VE competent, disinterested farmers, and
the machine that is pronounced to do the
best work shall bo entitled TO the owner
ship OF both machines, at the close of the
contest. This / claim to he the real and
only "test" OF the merits of the machines.
A machine shat will only do good work,
when the grain is in favorable condition D,
is not the machine, In my opinion, for our
farmers to rely.upon In saving their crops.
The "Johnston" know to be capable of
saving the grain clean, in whatever condi-
ton II may be, without any reference to
the direction the machine Is driven.

The subject of this Imperfect notice had
gone to the country to spend few days,
when he was taken with hemorrhage OF

protested religion when IL years of age,
and consequently, had been n member of
the NJ Il. Church for thirty years. To say
that Mr.. Gum had been, throughout the
whole time, consistent, humble christian
gentleman. is but to reiterate public senti-
ment. 1t is quite too common to preach

borne out I'm the expression that Simpson
b. Gum lived and died prepared, and has
gone to that rest in reserve for the faithful.
He was married, in 1850, to lMiss Penick, a
worthy christian helpmeet, who, with
three little jewels, two girls and one boy,
survive him. She has the warmest SYM

interest, its able articles ON various

that so much ability and research, are
so slow in impressing themselves upon

RADICAL religion, In the North,
which is the synonyme of hypocricy,
is excited by the refusal of Southern
Churches, to recognise 1t as Christian
ity. Ministers of religion who preach
in advocacy of a war of extermina-
ton, with its crimes of murder, rape,
robbery and arson are agents of the
devil rather than of God of mercy
and peace, and the congregations that
tolerate them, are unworthy Of aliili-
alton with true Christians. This is
the reason of the refusal to affiliate,
and the Northern Churches can pond
or upon 1t, with profit to their morals.
