rjHHE MOST VALUABLE OF ALL FER- 
* tilizers.—It is well known and now universally con¬ 
ceded, that for the greater number of crops the most valu¬ 
able element in all kinds of organic and artificial fertilizers 
is the ammonia contained in them. The subscriber has, 
on this account, |undertaken extensive arrangements for 
manufacturing subjects of amonia from the gas works in 
and about New-York city. The greater part of this is 
used in preparing his Super Phosphate of Lime, but he 
can also supply to such as require It, a few tons weight 
of the pure crystalized sulphate of amonia which will be 
furnished packed in quantities to suit purchasers at $6 50 
per hundred lbs. All orders promptly filled.

directs, he will, when they commence bearing'fTurnis nthe owner 
with one of his vinedressers whom he has instructed in liis mode 
of cultivation; and who will do all the labor of the Vineyard,

trusted to his care. 
His Trees, etc., are very fine this year, and his collection very

M ULES FOR SALE.—The subscriber 
keeps constantly on hand 400 to 500 MULES, of all sizes. 
Among these are some of the choicest animals in the United 
States ; 16 hands and over in height, and well proportioned. 
Mules are almost the only working animals used in portions of 
the Southern States, the West Indiajslands, and Spanish posses¬ 
sions, where severe work and hard usage are allotted them, and 
under which horses would soon die. An equal advantage would 
follow their introduction among farmers and others, in the 
northern States. They are not only much hardier than horses, 
but they will draw more in proportion to their weight; will en¬ 
dure a great deal more; live twice as long, and eat less; and the 
only dressing or currying they need, is a soft place to roll^on 
They are gentle, tractable, and easily managed ; and nobody wh 
has ever tried them will ever give them up for horses or oxen.
