1t is impossible for lis, in this brief notice, to
speak of all the points of utility and excellence
embraced in these machines, and must content
ourselves with mere mention of few of them,
and invite you to examine the machine We
will furnish either the open or closed cylinder,
spiked with the very best of iron. The cylinder
shaft is made of steel, and fitted with brass boxes
lined with the best Babbit metal. The gear
shafts are made of steel, and run in boxes lined
with Babbit metal. The gearing is made of the
best of charcoal iron and fitted in the best possi-
BILE manner. The cylinder is perfectly adjusted,
by men of long experience. The cylinder cap is
Sc constructed that the cylinder will not throw
dust into the face of the feeder. The grain-car-
rier is ten inches wider than the cylinder, afford
ing ample room to obtain n perfect separation
The revolving knocker in the second carrier is of
great value in securing the grain, The double
fan will clean grain of all kinds in the most per-
feet manner, without waste. The revolving and
vibrating shoe-rakes are very useful in prevent
ing the choking or filling up of the shoe and ele-
vator. The arrangement for raising and lower
ing the concave is very simple and easily opera
ted. The sef-oiling and noiseless shake-rods
for the shoe and elevator spout, must be seen to
be appreciated. The small shafts are made of
good iron, the Journals turned polished and
fitted in the boxes perfectly. The boxes are lined
with Babbit metal, and fitted with oil cups and
caps to keep out the dust. The puleys are made
of cast-iron, covered with leather, to prevent
slipping. The belts are of good oak-tanned leath-
err well stretched, cemented and riveted together

Card from James Armstrong.

TNHE undersigned would hereby respectfully
l. beg leave to return his sincere thanks to the
Democratic and Conservative voters of New Cas-
tie county for their partaity in selecting him as
their candidate for the Sherffalty, from among so
many other gentlemen, whose names were pre-
sehted TO them on Saturday last, any one of
whom would have done honor alike to the Office
and the great party to which they so long and
faithfully adhered.
1t would afford him great pleasure to visit his
friends in every Hundred in the county and to
tender to each, personally, his thanks for the
honor conferred upon him but, as crcumstan-
ces, which are best understood By those who are
most intimately acquainted with him, render this
impracticable, he adopts this as the only avaia-
BILE mode of expressing his gratitude to his fell
low-ctizens for their past support and of solicit
ing continuation of the same Mt the ensuing
general election, pledging himself that, should
he be so fortunate as to be elected to the said Of
hce, he will discharge its duties with honesty, f.
deity, and TO the best of his humble ability.

WITH RUssELL's PATENT MOVABLE CENTER
Russelfs Improved Double Pinion eight and
ten-horse Cary Power, with movable centre, has
long been in use, during which time it has with
stood the most severe tests, and for light draft,
movable centre, is of great value, for by its use
the master wheel is allowed to adjust itself to the
master pinions, so as to divide the labor equally,
thus overcoming friction, and removing to a great
extent the liability to break by sudden jerks or
starts of the horses. The and horse power is
essentially the same as the eight and ten, except
in size.
The spring coupling fork is now attached to
the line shaft of the power, and is made with a
reversible dog, by taking off the coupling fork
and changing the dog, the horses may travel ci-
ther to the right or left.
