AGENTS FOR THE SALE OF

Seed Planters, Water Rains', fyc. 4>c. 
THE undersigned have been for many years devoted to the ad¬ 
vancement of agricultural, horticultural, and'other scientific pur¬ 
suits, for which a taste is advancing in this state rapidly, and 
beyond any other period of its existence ; and aware of the want 
of an agent located in Mobile, in whose judgment in such mat¬ 
ters the citizens of this and the adjoining states, and the proprie¬ 
tors can have confidence, and who would take a direct and per¬ 
sonal interest in furthering the introduction of approved agricul¬ 
tural and horticultural implements, tools, and machinery, we are 
induced to open an agency in this city, devoted to these branches 
alone. From our knowledge of, and acquaintance, with the plant¬ 
ers of Alabama and Mississippi, we are enabled to offer greater 
inducements and facilities to patentees and inventors for the sale 
of their articles than can be obtained elsewhere. 
We will open an exclusive Agricultural Agency Warehouse in 
Mobile, suited to the southern planter. Inventors and patentees 
are invited to a correspondence (post paid), relating to plows, har¬ 
rows, rollers, cultivators, horse-powers, grain and rice threshers, 
hulling machines, fanning mills, cottern gins, and all other ar¬ 
ticles useful to planters and agriculturists. 
It may be proper to add, that the great Mobile and Ohio Rail¬ 
road, of which Mobile will be the dep6t, will go on to a rapid and 
certain completion, and this will shortly be a point inferior to 
none is the Union for the sale of everything connected with the 
vast interest of agriculture of Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee, 
and Kentucky, and through the terminus of the road at the mouth 
of the Ohio with the “ Great West,” whose outlet this will be in 
a fair and profitable rivalry with New Orleans. 
We will make prompt returns ot all business confided to us. 
Agricultural and horticultural works received on commission.

FRUIT AND ORNAMENTAL TREES 
THE subscribers wish to inform their customers and the public, 
that'they have now on hand, and will offer for sale, during the en¬ 
suing planting season, a large stock of fruit trees, consisting, in 
part,' of 50;000 apple trees suitable for orchard planting, 20,000 
pear ditto, ditto, 15,000 cherry ditto ditto, 15,000'peach ditto, ditto, 
besides large quantities of apricots, plums, nectarines, quinces, 
grapes, and all the small fruits. The trees are vigorous and heal¬ 
thy, and the collection comprises all the leading standard sorts, 
as well as nearly all the rare and choice ones recently brought 
to notice. All have been propagated under the personal supervi¬ 
sion of the proprietors, whose care, experience, and entire devo¬ 
tion to the business, give the public a ieasonable guarantee for 
accuracy. A large share of attention is paid to the cuiture of 
garden fruit trees, and the stock of apples on Paradise stocks, 
pears on quince, and cherry on mahaleb, is probably the largest 
in the Union. 
All the famous native fruits of western New York can be sup¬ 
plied genuine—propagated from the bearing trees. Immens 
quantities of young trees, suitable for distant transmission, can 
be supplied. 
The stock of ornamental trees is very large, and quantities for 
planting streets, public grounds, &c., or to dealers, can be fur¬ 
nished very low. Hedge plants can also be furnished by the 
1000 or 10,000, comprising Norway spruce, arbor vita5, hemlock, 
red cedar, English and American thorn, buckthorn, Osage orange, 
honey locust, privet, &c. 50,000 plum seedlings, one year old, 
30,000 quince, of the best sort, for pear stocks, besides large quan¬ 
tities of rhubarb, asparagus, sea kale, and all other articles in the 
nursery line, at reduced rates. 
Trees and plants will be packed in the best manner and ship¬ 
ped to any part of the Union. A new catalogue for 1848 and ’49 
is just published, and will be sent gratis to all post-paid appli* 
cants.
