were the following:

ARMERS AND GARDENERS WHO 
can not get manure enough, will find a cheap and powerful 
substitute in the IMPROVED POUDRETTE madefy the sub¬ 
scribers. The small quantity used, the ease with which it is 
applie l, and the powerful stimulus it gives to vegetation, ren¬ 
ders it, the cheapest and best manure in the world. It causes 
plants to come up quicker, to grow faster, to yield ^heavier and 
ripen earlier than any other manure in the world, and unlike 
otner fertilizers, it can be brought in direct contact with the 
plant. Three dollars’worth is sufficient to manure an acre of 
corn. Price, delivered free of cartage or package on board of 
vessel or railroad in New-York city, $150 per barrel, for any 
quantity over six barrels. 1 barrel, $2; 2barrels, $3 50; 3 bar¬ 
rels, $5 00; 5 barrels, $8 00. A pamphlet with information and 
direct ions will be sent gratis ana post-paid, to any one applying 
for the same.

Gentlemen—At the request of John P. Cushing, Esq., of this 
place, I have, for the last five years, purchased from you 200 
barrels of Poudrette per annum, which he has used upon his 
extensive and celebrated garden in this town. He gives it al¬ 
together the preference over every artificial manure, (Guano 
not excepted), speaks of it in the highest terms as a manure for 
the kitchen garden, especially for potatoes. 
I am, gentlemen, very respectfully, 
Your obedient, servant.

MULE FAN MIIX. 
T he best and cheapest grain 
AND SEED SEPARATOR EVER OFFERED 
IN THIS MARKET. 
The superiority of this Fan consists 
First—In cleaning without a screen, by separating the impu¬ 
rities, such as chess, cockle, smut, &c.. by the blast alone, con¬ 
sequently saving the loss of the small sound kernels of wheat 
which must go through a screen. 
Second—An arrangement by which a part of the sound and 
perfect grains are separated from the rest for seeding, leaving 
the balance in a good marketable condition, so that the 
farmer need sow only such grain as contains the germ of 
growth. 
Third—Smaller seed, sucli as grass and clover seed, are 
cleaned in the most perfect manner. 
Fourth—Fans built on this plan will clean grain, both in the 
first and second cleaning, faster and better than any others now 
in use. 
Fifth—The cheapness and durability of its construction.
