A Haily Morning and Evening 
NEWSPAPSE, 
Independent in Politics. 
Its columns afford a complete resume of the World’s Doings 
from day to day; while its Correspondence, Reports, Literary 
Contributions, Criticisms, and Leading Articles, represent all 
topics likely to engage public attention. In the promptitude 
and fullness of its accounts of the 
GREAT ITALIAN WAR, 
The New-York Times has thus far confessedly outstripped all 
its conteraporaiies ; a precedence, which with its ample Edito¬ 
rial and other Correspondence at the Seat of War, it will un¬ 
questionably retain.

THE PLOW, THE LOOM, AND THE ANVIL. 
Two complete setts and a few single volumes of this work re¬ 
main to be disposed of. 
The Plow, the Loom, and the Anvil was n work of no 
ordinary merit. Inaugurated by the late Col John S. Skinner, 
enriched largely by his pen, and devoted to the great industrial 
interests of this country, it deserves a place in the choicest li¬ 
braries. 
The two setts offered above are, it is believed, the only copies 
of the work now to be had. They are freshly bound in excellent 
library style, embracing ten volumes of nearly 800 pages each, 
and form in themselves a thorough history of the progress of 
Agriculture and the mechanic arts in this country, from 1848 to 
the present time. 
These setts, together with a few single volumes, will be dis¬ 
poser! of reasonably, if applied for soon. 
iSP Ail persons indebted for the Plow, the Loom, and Anvil 
are earnestly requested to remit without delay.
