"XKW YO:?K StARKET, May 26, 1855. 



Floi'r— TlnTe wjisa little better feeling in the ra:irket to-day, 

 ind prices slightly advanceJ. The improvement was piincipally on 

 ■,he Inwer grades. We notice alao some disposition to purcliaMe for 

 rd delivery, bat the transactions were checked bv the advan- 

 ce! pretensions of holders. Siles 9,000 bbls. at $10.31 >i a 10.5tj>4 

 mmou to ch« i'ce Slate ; $10.25 a 10.ol'4 for common to good 

 Ihio ; and $11.37'a a 13 for extra Genesee. Canadian, a slight ad- 

 was realized on the medium grades — sales 2-100 bbls. at $10.50 

 t IT .37 '2 tor the range of common to fancy and extras. 



Graix— 1 1 view of the limited supply of wheat, and a fair mlU- 

 Dg dt'in'iind, holders of parcels on the spot are enabled to realize a 

 hade better prices. There is considerable arrivals, but milleis re- 

 use to purcha-^e in anticipation of lower prices. Sales 3,000 bush- 

 Is fair white Canadian, at $2.60, and 1,000 fair white Michigan at 

 '2.65. Rye doing better; sales 3,8U0 bushels prime northern at 

 ;l.6S. A considerable portion of Western Mixed Corn now arriv- 

 ng is out of order, and shippers are afraid of It — this fact hiis a 

 lepresaing effect upon the market, as distillers are not now pur- 

 tha.sing to any extent. Sales reach 78,030 bushels at $1.04 « $1.11 

 ifcrior to prime western mixed, closing with free sellers of 

 atter at S1.08 , and $1.12 a 1.13 for white do. and yellow. 

 PROVISION'S— Pork market has been quite animated. In other 

 inds of provisions the business was rather limited. Sales 2,S00 

 bis. at $16.5S'i a 16.75 fnr old mess— $17.75 for new do.; $16.8732

 Jales 400 bbls. at 10>.£ a 10?-;. Butter 19 a 24 for State. Cheese 

 all.

BEES! BEES!! 

 L. L. lang3hoths-s:movable comb hive. 



(Patented October, 1855.) 



IJ^ACH Comb in this hive is made bv the bees on a separate, mo- 

 li vable frame, and in a few minutes by the use of a little smoke 

 they may all be easilv taken out without cutting them or at all en- 

 raging the bees. Tiie practical bee-keeper will see that a perfect 

 control over all the combs must make an entire revolution in bee- 

 keeping; as in this way weak stocks may be quickly strengthened 

 by helping them to comb, honey, or hatching broods from stronger 

 ones; queenless colonifs may be supplied with the means of rais- 

 ing another queen ; the exact condition of the hive may at any 

 time be ascertained, and the ravages of the bee-moth elfectually 

 prevented. New colonies may be formed in less time than is usu- 

 ally required to hive a natural swarm ; or the hive may be used aa 

 a non-swarmer ; or managed on the common swarming plan. The 

 right to use this invention is sold for live dollars, and entitles the 

 purchaser to use and make for his own use in one location as many 

 hives as he pleaeea. For ten dollars a nght and a beautiful hive, 

 glass on four sides, will be sent carefully boxed, to any address. 

 For seven dollars a right and a thoroughly made hive with glass 

 on the back. Thiahive is made to stand in the open air without 

 the expense of a bee-house. Proper directions for its management, 

 toco'.her with a minute account of the habits of the bee are con- 

 tained in the patentee's work on '-The Hive and the Honey-Hee," 

 (3S4 pages octtwo,) which will be sent, postage paid, for one dollar 

 and a quarter. For individual and territorial rights, address

 -^ ^Separator made. The superiority c 



First — In cleaning without a screen, by separating the impurities 

 , -fuch as ches^, cockle, smut, &c., by the blast alone, consequently 

 ' «aving the losa of rhe small sound kernels of wheat which must 

 isaflSO through a screen. 



cond — An arrangement by which a part of the sound and per- 

 fect grains are separated from the rest for seeding, leaving the bai- 

 lee in a go'id marketable condition, so that the farmer need sow 

 ily such grain as contains the germ of growth. 

 Third — ^Smaller seed, inch as grass and clover eeed, are cleaned 

 In the mo.=t perfect manner. 



Fourth— Fans built on this plan will clean grain, both in the first 

 id 'lecond cleauing, faster and better than any others now in use. 

 Fifth — The cheapness and durability of its construction.
