ROWE’S PRIZE CRUSHING MILL. 
IMPROVED AND REPATENTED— PRICE GREATLY 
REDUCED. 
rr>HIS is the only Mill that can do the work of a farm or plantation, 
i and for cheapness, simplicity, durability and efficiency in 
varied and useful application for Farming, Mining and mechanical 
purposes it is wholly without competition. The 4 Horse Mill will 
crush and mix thoroughly 20 bushels of ears of unshuckcd corn (dry, 
of cour-se,) in each hour of running time. With this I can pulverize 
20 pounds of Straw, sheaf Oats or Hay. And then throw in Turnips, 
Beets, Potatoes, or Pumpkins, and mix the whole perfectly. It 
mixes articles that can mixed in no other way. Two active hands 
can grind 8 tons of rock plaster, as fine as any mill, in 10 hours. 
We crush and sift. The same hands and team, in the same time, 
can crush 1000 pounds of bones to a merchantable fineness. They 
can crush 18 bushels of fresh shell lime, for manure, in each hour of 
running time. I can beat any mill extant crushing bark for tan- 
ning. This mill will out last (crushing bashel for bushel, ton for ton, 
horse-power lor horse power) 2'i of any other mills now known as 
Crushers. This mill makes a fair article of family meal. This mill 
furnishes its own horse-power, and will be shipped to crder for $180 
down to $120, according to size — 4, 2 and 1 Horse Mills. 
Porfurther particulars address the patentee, until the 1st Febru- 
ary, 1856, at Richmond, Va., after that, at Tampa Bay, Fla. The 
patentee guarantees every Mill he or his Agents puts up to jrerform 
up to the letter of this advertisement, or no sale.

THE HORTICULTURIST AND JOURNAL OF 
RURAL ART AND RURAL TASTE. 
C OMMENCED by A. J. Downing, author of “Landscape Garden- 
ing,” “Design.s for Cottage Residences,” “Fruits and Fruit Trees 
of America,” “Country Houses,” etc. ikiited by J. Jay Smith, 
Editor of the North Amsricun SylrM. 
This popular publication, which is graduallj" extending its influ- 
ence throughout the country, and is becoming indispensable to the 
tasteful gardener, the fruit culturist, and the floriculturist, will be 
continued under the editorship of J. Jay Smith, whose ability and 
taste in matters of country life are highly appreciated throughout 
the country. 
The cultivation of the beautiful, both in Nature and Art, is .justly 
esteemed an important element in education, and commends itself to 
the attention of all who wish to make their dwelling and grounds at- 
tractive, and to surround themselves with those luxuries and adorn- 
ments that spring from the fruitful bosom of the earth when culti- 
vated by the practical hand. The typographical execution of the 
Iforticulturiid is designed to be an index to its contents — neat, 
chaste and elegant. It embraces witliin its scope — 
I. The Descrii>tion and Cultivation of Fruit and Fruit Trees — 
a subject of vast importance, and In which we are already more in- 
terested than ary other people. 
II. The Description AND Cultivation or Flowers and Flowerixo 
Plants and Shrubs, from the most delicate and tender to the most 
hardy and robust. 
III. To the Dklcripiton and Cultivation of au. Edible Plants, 
which are, or should be, grown in our gardens. 
IV. To Gardening as an Art of Tabte — with Designs for Orna- 
mental or Landscajie Gardening. 
V. To Rural Architecture— embracing Designs for Rural Cottages 
and Villas, Farm Houses, Lodges, Gates, Vineries, Ice Houses, kc. 
VI. To Arboricultube — or the Planting and Culture of Forest and 
Ornamental Trees. 
vn. To Botany and Entomology — so far as these branches are 
connected with the general subjects to which the work is specially de- 
voted. 
The extended and valuable correspondence of the Horti^uUtu'ist 
presents the experience of the most iutelligent cultivators in Ameri- 
ca; tire superior illiustrations, and the instructive and agreeable 
articles from the pens of the editor and contributors, make it eagerly 
sought after by even the general reader interested in country life. 
To all persons alive to the improvement of their gardens, orchards, 
or country seats — to scientific and practical cultivators of the soil — 
to nurserymen and commercial gardeners, this journal, giving the 
latest discoveries and improvements, experiments and acquisitions 
in Horticulture andtliose branches of knowledge connected with it, 
will be invaluable. ; 
A new volnme (lltli year) commences with the January number 
for 1856; and it will be the constant aim of the editor and the pub- 
lisher, by every means in their power, to render itstill more worthy, by 
every practicable improvement, of the liberal patronage it is receiving . 
The work is iasued on the first of each month, in the best style of 
the periodical press, each number containing 48 pages, embellished 
with a frontispiece and several other original and well-executed en- 
gravings. At the end t f tlie year it will make a volume of six hun- 
dred pages, beautifully illustrated with over 100 engravings, many of 
tliem drawings of fruits and flowers from nature. These volumes, if 
taken for a number of years, will make a valuable Encyclopedia of 
Horticultural Literature.

in advance. 
An edition is published with plates, colored in the best style of the 
art — Pr ice, Five Dollars.
