AGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENTS. 



The subscriber would call attention to his stock of Agricultural Implements, consisting of 

 Ploughs, Straw Cutters, Cornshellers, Corn and Cob Crushers, Hoes, Spades, 

 Shovels, Axes, &c. &c. which he will furnish as good and sell as low, as they can be had in 

 the State of Virginia. C. T. BOTTS. 



Hussey's Heaping Machine. 



FARMERS who intend procuring this machine to cut their next harvest, will please send their orders 

 soon to the subscriber in Baltimore. The uncertainty felt by farmers for a year or two past, as to 

 what machine they had better procure, appears from present indications, to be considerably removed, as 

 the orders already received are more than doif !e the number of any previous year, up to the middle of 

 February. To say nothing of what this machine will do in good standing grain, it is warranted to cut 

 grain in such bad condition, as no other reaping machine ever made can cut at all.

PERUVIAN GUANO. 



rilHE subscribers are prepared to furnish to order, Guano of the cargo imported by Saml. K. George, 

 1 Esq. Agent of the Peruvian Guano Company, and warranted genuine, at three cents per lb. for one

This cargo is warranted to be pure and of the best quality, and is in the original bags (of about 130 

 lbs. each.) All orders, to insure attention, must be accompanied with the cash.

LAND AGENCY. 



SUCH has been the Subscriber's success in this department of his business and such is the increasing 

 notoriety he is obtaining as an Agent for the Sale of Real Estate, that he does not hesitate to recom- 

 mend his services as mutually beneficial both to those seeking to buy and to sell. 



With his extensive knowledge of the wants of persons desiring to purchase, derived from the various 

 applications that he is daily receiving, it is almost impossible that any one desiring to sell should fail 

 to reap from his services five or six times as much as he charges for them. Those charges are as for- 

 merly — when the property is sold within 12 months from the date at which he is employed, if the sale 

 amounts to ten thousand dollars, he is to receive $100 out of the first payment of the purchase money — if 

 it amounts to less than that sum, he is to receive $50. If at the end of 12 months the property remains 

 unsold he is to receive $10. 



g^f Information furnished those desiring to purchase, without charge.

HORSE POWER AND THRESHING MACHINE. 



THE Subscriber is manufacturing, for $120, what he believes to be the best Horse Power and Thresh- 

 ing Machine now in use. He is emboldened to say so, from the fact, that where it was used last 

 year it was universally approved. The Horse Power, particularly, is unrivalled. From two to four 

 horses is all the power that is ever required, and for compactness, ease of draft and durability, it cannot 

 be excelled. 



This Machine is calculated to get out cleanly from 120 to 150 bushels per day; but for $150 a larger 

 drum will be furnished, that with four horses will thresh 250 bushels. 



Orders are pouring in, and those desiring these Machines will please inform me at once, that I may 

 not be hurried in getting them up; and therefore may have a better opportunity of turning out a good ar- 

 ticle. C. T. BOTTS.

Wood Engraving. 



A GOOD Engraver is much wanted in the City of Richmond. In a population of 25,000, there is no 

 one who makes a business of engraving.
