George X. Harrington, now teaching
school some five miles west of town, has
invented the most convenient, simple
and apparently durable farm gate we
have e yet. 1t has been exhibited to
a great many farmers, who are unani-
mously of the opinion that it is the best
gate yet thought of. 1t opens and
closes either way readily, can be raised
to avoid snow-drifts or to assert stock of
different heights, is light, and no heavy
strain is upon any particular part of it.
A patent is to be applied for.
John Anderson, the station agent,
postmaster. &c, at Bolckow, left all his
irons in the fire at home on Monday and
paid Savannah a flying visit. We would
be glad to see you ~oftener. John.
Senator Wyatt and Representative
