' ox tint gored yours. Anollier rem.irUable incident 

 thai the doctrines of ilie Ueclaratiiin of Independence 

 1 becominu licrelical ; and a resolution couclied in the 

 ry words of (his old fasliioiied paper, havo, by a large 

 le, been laid upon the table. We mean to slate facts 

 ly — we havo no comments to offer. 

 Phe Government have ordered out the militia to pro- 

 t our neutrality on the northern frontier. The British 

 cers boast of their enterprise in destroying llie Steam 

 it at Schlosser ; but the act of these subalterns is not 



act of the British Government, who, unquestionably 



I make prompt explanations and redress. The disaf- 



ed continue in force at Navy Island, but are not like- 



,o do any thing more titan to bluster, and presently 



jisbanded. 



:"he Indians have triumphed in a battle with the 



lericans in Florida, and many of our~brave officers 



soldiers have fallen. Wu commi.^erate the fate of 

 ;e noble young men, and weep over the disgrace of 

 country; but the ways of Heaven are just. A tliou- 

 d such defeats cannot atone for the injuries which 

 Be abused sons of the ftirest have received at our 

 ds ; and centuries cannot wipe away the biacU dis- 

 ;e of having betrayed their chief under the plighted 

 or, held sacred even among the lowest barbarians, 



flag of truce.

 lications on band, which shall receive early and due

sal« at the New England Agrlcidlnral Warehouse and 

 Store: the above machines were highly recommended by 

 immitlees at the late fair, and by others who have used 

 for the last two or three years. 



JOSEPH BRECK & CO. 



Joseph Brcck & Co., at the New England Agricultural 

 Warehouse aud Seed Store, Nos. 51 &52INuith Martlet Street 

 have for sale, Greene's Patent Straw, Hay ai d Stalk Cuiter, 

 operating on a mechanical principle, not 1 efore applied to 

 any implement for this purpose. The most proiuiiieni effects 

 of this application, and some of the consequent peculiarities 

 of the machine are; 



1. So great a reduction of the quantum of power requisite 

 to use it, that the strength of a half grown boy is sufficient 

 to work it very efficiently, 



2. With even this moderate power, it easily cuts two bush- 

 els a minute, which is full twice as fast as has been claimed 

 by any other machine even when worked by horse or eleam 

 power. 



3. The knives, owin:i to the peculiar manner in which they 

 cut, require sliarpening lesi often than those of any other 

 straw cutter. 



4. The machine is simple in its construction, made and put 

 together very strongly It ia therefore not bo liable as the 

 complicated machines in general use, to get out of order.
