Fraud in Packing Hay. A gentleman desires us to 

 notice a fraud which he discovered a day or two ago, in 

 a bundle of Northern Hay, in the centre of which he 

 found about 20 lbs. of worthless trash. We hope the 

 time is at hand when we shall no longer be obliged to 

 import from such a distance, large quantities of an article 

 which ought always to have been produced in abundance 

 in an agricultural state like this. There have been be- 

 tween 500 and 1000 bundles of Northern Hay, worth 

 about $5 per bundle, consumed in this place within 

 three months past.— FayeUeville JV. C. Observer. 



Something new. A letter commencing as follows, was 

 lately published in the Washington Globe. The idea oi 

 evincing a spirit of gratitude by getting chunk on the Sub- 

 bath, is indeed original. — Merc. Jour. 



"New York, 6th March, 1834. 



"Dear Sir, I received your short but gratifying letter 

 this morning stating the result of the debate on the reso- 

 lutions of the Committee of Ways and Means. Laus 

 Deo ! I intend to get tipsy to day though it is Sunday.".'.'.'

PROVISION MARKET, 

 retail prices. 



THE simplicity of the construction of this Machine, and Ihe 

 small probability of its gelling out of repair, together with the 

 neat and rapid manner that it performs its work, certainly ren- 

 ders it a desirable arliele for the purposes for which it is in- 

 tended. Ii is constructed on an entire new principle from any 

 heretofore invented, and will cut an hundred weight of hay in 

 leu minutes, two inches long, can also cutany length from three 

 inches to one-fourth of an inch ; it is fed by placing the fodder 

 in a hopper that stands perpendicular, the knife playing hori- 

 zontally underneath, by which means all the complicated 

 machinery for feeding and the power necessary to drive it is 

 avoided. 



The Subscriber having become the proprietor of the right of 

 making, tfce. said machine, in and tor the Slate of Massachu- 

 setts, solicits the public to call and examine for themselves. 

 Said Machine is for sale at the store of Proiitv & Mears, 

 No. 12 Commercial street, Boston. DAVID P. KING, 



Mlio is also Agent tor the States of Vermont, New Hamp- 

 shire, Maine, and Rhode Island.
