£ar&. We understand that such is the scarcity of 

 the host kind of bark used by tanners, that the kind 

 usually denominated Spanish Oak will readily command 

 from $20 to $21 a cord. The scarcity of the article 

 has interrupted the regular business of several tanners.— 

 JV. Y. paper. 



Masons. There.is a great scarcity in this city of brick- 

 layers and stone masons, even at 15 shillings a day, now 

 the wages. This fact is mentioned, that those out of em- 

 ploy in other places, may know where to find work and 

 good wages.— .'V. Y. Gaz. 



A machine has been invented in Cincinnati for cut- 

 ting wheat, or any other small grain, by horse power. 

 It is stated that it will, when propelled by two horses, 

 cut as fast as eight persons can bind. A fair trial has 

 been made of it, in the presence of several members of 

 the agricultural society of Hamilton county. It met 

 their fullest approbation, and the editor of the Cincin- 

 nati Advertiser, who has seen the machine, expresses 

 the opinion that it may be applied to cutting grass also. 

 This, if it proves fully successful, is an important in- 

 vention ; but so many novelties have been brought for- 

 ward of late, and so few have answered the expectations 

 at first held out of their utility, that we are disposed to 

 be somewhat cautious and incredulous. — U. S. Gaz. 



Singular Fact—A Frankfort, (Ky.) paper says :— " In 

 many parts of this country chickens and other fowls 

 have died in great numbers with all the symptoms of 

 cholera. A gentleman of our acquaintance administer- 

 ed spirits of camphor to several chickens which were ap- 

 parently near death, and they instantly revived and 

 speedily recovered."
