DURHAM CATTLE FOR SALE. 
Nine head of this valuable breed of animals are now offered 
for sale by the Subscriber, he having more than he can well keep 
on his farm. 
Rose, 9 years old, a good milker, having given 25 quarts milk a 
day on pasture only. She is in calf by my prize bull Meteor, and 
will drop her calf about the middle of August. 
Empress, nearly as good a milker as Rose. She dropped her 
calf about the 25th of June and will be bulled by Meteor. 
Eunice, 5 years old, bulled by my imported Duke of Welling¬ 
ton, 25th June, is a good milker, her dam having given 32 quarts 
a day on pasture only. 
Julia. 4 years old, recently bulled by Meteor. 
Lily, 2 years old, bulled by Meteor 9th June. 
Three yearling Heifers, got by Wellington and Meteor, and a 
yearling Bull, got by Meteor. 
These animals will be sold at $100 to $125 per head. A credit 
will be given of six months or a year, if desired, for approved 
paper. 
Gentlemen desirous of procuring the blood of the celebrated 
herd of Thomas Bates, Esq., of Yorkshire, England, may now 
have an opportunity of doing so, as the young animals possess 
that blood on the side of their sires ; and the cows are in ealf by 
Meteor and Wellington. The cows are descendants of the Bul¬ 
lock stock of Durhams. For the good milking qualities of these 
animals, &c., I would refer to the editor of the American Agri¬ 
culturist. Letters, post paid, will receive an answer.

RHEUMATISM ANNIHILATED. 
DR. VAN BUREN’S RHEUMATIC EMBROCATION. 
The proprietor of the Rheumatic Embrocation comes before 
the public, with increased confidence in the healing virtues of his 
remedy; for, since he first offered it to the public, it has been 
tried in the worst possible and most aggravated cases, over which 
it has completely triumphed; in some instances, indeed, whero 
the patient had been given up by the attending physicians, as in 
curable , and in a great many cases, where all the remedies placed 
before the public, for the cure of rheumatism, had been faithfully 
employed without the least effect; thus proving its transcendent 
superiority. 
It will allay the pain and soreness (sometimes in a few 
minutes), and reduce the swelling in a much shorter time than 
can possibly be effected by any other means; in fact will relieve 
when all others fail; nor can any injury result from exposure 
after its application. The patient will also be less liable to ano¬ 
ther attack, after being cured by this remedy, than by other ap¬ 
pliances ; as it cannot affect the constitution in the slightest de¬ 
gree, nor impair the parts immediately involved; but on the con 
trary, will restore them to their original healthy condition and 
usefulness. 
One of the most important advantages this possesses, over all 
other remedies, is that, where it is properly applied, no contrac¬ 
tion of the tendons can possibly ensue; and where contraction 
does exist, will effectually remove it; thus preventing any distor¬ 
tion of the extremities, and the patient, from becoming a cripple 
for life, as is th-s case in thousands of instances, where other 
modes of treatment are adopted. The proprietor has received 
from various parts of the United States, and is receiving almost 
daily, the most flattering testimony to the curative powers of 
his Rheumatic Embrocation ; and he feels now more justified 
than ever in asserting that it is a never-failing cure in all the va¬ 
rious formsof rheumatism, chronic or inflammatory, and all com¬ 
plaints of an analogous character, such as contracted tendons, 
stiff or weak joints and back, sprains, bruises, &c., when faith 
fully and perseveringly employed. He cannot occupy the neces 
sary space in an advertisement, or he would place before the 
public the documentary evidence of the truth of his assertions. 
But though he cannot do this, he is willing at any time to show 
them to all who may call upon him at his principal office, No. 
56 Sand street, Brooklyn, Long Island, N. Y. 
Agents solicited from all parts of the United States and the
