Many otlier nuts of wit and wisdom were crack- 

 ed witli as much glee as if Comus himself had 

 presided at the feast, and every guest had been in- 

 spired by the Genius of Hilarity, Quips, quirks, 

 smiles, plain and wreathed, and otlier manifesta- 

 tions of mirth from the delicate inaudible simper 

 to the loud horselaugh, indicated that all believed, 

 "a merry heart doth good like a medicine." A 

 Song written and sung by If. .1. Finn, Esq. [see 

 the last page of this day's paper] added much to 

 enjoyments of the feast of intellect and the flow of 

 festivity. 



We arc- happy to learn that an Address will be 

 delivered before the Massachusetts Agricultural 

 Society at their Exhibition at Brighton on the 

 16th Oct. by Hon. Edward Everett.

VALUABLE FARM AT AUCTION OR PRIVATE 

 SALE. 



THE Subscriber offers for sale a Farm situated in the 

 town of Marlboro', Mass. about half way between Howes' 

 Tavern and the Lower Meeting-House. It consists of 14-0 

 acres of excellent land, with a large two-story Dwelling House, 

 two Barns, Chaise and other Out-houses, with two fine Wells 

 of Water. About 70 acres of the land is covered with a fine 

 growth of the best quality of Wood ; the remainder, consisting 

 of Mowing Lands, Tillage and Orcharding, is in a high stale of 

 cultivation. It now supports 20 head of horned cattle, horses, 

 swine, &c. 



For the last 25 years, this estate has been improved by Mr. 

 William Wilson, deceased, and for 50 years previous thereto, 

 it was known as " Munroe's Tavern." " The excellent quality 

 of its soil, the large and valuable quantity of wood, and its other 

 numerous advantages, make it a most desirable situation for a 

 farmer; while its situation (on the old road to Worcester, on 

 which the travel is great, the distance from any other tavern 

 and its former notoriety as one,} makes it a no less desirable 

 situation for a Tavern again. 



The above estate, free from all incumbrances whatever, will 

 be sold mi Friday the first day of November, unless previously 

 disposed of by private sale. "As also, at the same time, all the 

 cattle, a large quantity of hay and grain, farming utensils, ^>c. 

 as are not previously disposed of. 



Terms of purchase made known on the day of sale. Like- 

 wise, several other lots of land belonging to the same estate, 

 will be sold at the same time.

IMPROVED HEARING TRUMPET. 



THIS Instrument possesses the valuable property of con- 

 ducting Sound in an infinitely more distinct and agreeable man- 

 ner, than anv of the numerous contrivances which have been 

 devised for the assistance of those who are afflicted with imper- 

 fection of the sense of hearing. From its flexibility it becomes 

 as portable as the common Hearing Trumpets, and affords the 

 additional advantage of rendering conversation as distinct be- 

 tween persons who are removed to the full extent of the TuDe, 

 as with those who are immediately near each other. — For sale
