& 55. E A.—This celebrated horse was award¬ 
ed the first premium of $20 at the great New-York State 
Fair in September, 1850, where he was exhibited with a large 
number # of his colts, and was judged the best stoek horse for all 
work in this country. Said horse has trotted his mile in two 
minutes and forty-six seconds. One of his colts took the first 
premium at the state fair at Saratoga Springs, owned by Mr. 
Milliinan, of Washington County, N. Y., and all places where 
stock have been exhibited, they carried off the best premi¬ 
ums. He is ,a beautiful dapple grey, 15£ hands high, strongly and 
finely proportioned. This horse is a descendant of the diligence 
coach horses in Italy, and brought from there by Napoleon Bona¬ 
parte to France, and was then sold to a gentleman and brought 
to Quebec, and was there sold to a gentlemen by the name of Me 
Mit, of Washington County, N. Y. Ilis dam was of the Messen¬ 
ger breed. Said horse was raised by Mr. J. Mills, of Argyle, 
Washington County, N. Y. 
We challenge any horse in this state to show as fine stock as 
said horse. His colts are justly celebrated for speed, bottom, 
and good temper, are eagerly sought after in the market, and 
command prices varying from $150 to $500 and $1,000. Terms, 
$10 the season. Insurance to be agreed upon. Said horse will 
stand at the stable of James Rice, three miles north of the village 
of Lansingburgli. All communications addressed to J. T. Grant, 
P. M., Junction, Rensselaer Co. N. Y., will receive prompt atten¬ 
tion. CALVIN MORSE.

■ffilAGtE P1LOW.—No. 28.—The following extract 
FTm from the letter of a gentleman who purchased one of these 
plows, fully explains its character. “In answer to your inquiry 
how I like the great breaking plow, I have to say it entirely ex¬ 
ceeds my expectations, and even your own recommendation, 
which I then thought quite extravagant. I put on four stout 
yoke of oxen, and "drove into the thickest patch of scrub oak 
roots upon my farm ; not without some misgivings, that I should 
break the plow instead of the roots; but I have now turned over 
twenty acres as completely as though it had been nothing but 
stubble, and the plow is this day better than it was when it 
came from your Wore. I think it the cheapest and best plow for 
such heavy'work ever invented,” 
These plows are for sale at our Agricultural Warehouse, No’s.

W EW-OXFORDS0ZRE BUCKS FOR §MiE. 
The subscriber has a number of yearlings and two-year- 
old bucks which he will sell any time when called for, and has 
no hesitation in saying this breed of sheep is superior to all 
others for large carcass, heavy fleeces, early maturity, and con-* 
stitution, and defies competition with all other breeds for profit.* 
This flock, (which has been bred from some of the best ever im-, 
ported,) is so well known they need no further description than » 
to say that the sire clipped 18 pounds of washed wool, and* 
weighed 361 pounds alive. Gentlemen are invited to call and* 
see for themselves, or communicate by mail. Direct to *

’PATEKTt ZINC FAINTS.—The Zinc White Paint 
JSl is rapidly superseding white lead, over which it possesses 
many advantages. It is whiter and more beautiful than white 
lead—does not turn yellow, even when exposed to sulphurous 
vapor, has no smell, is not injurious to health, and is really 
cheaper, as it covers more surface and is more durable. This, su¬ 
perior zinc paint is kept constantly on hand, both dry and ground 
in oil. 
Zinc Brown and Black Paints are both weather and fire 
proof—the best covering for outside work ever introduced ; 
adapted to buildings of wood, brick, or stone ; fences, carriage 
bodies, bridges, and machinery; the hulls of vessels, anchors, 
chains,and all other ironwork on hoard ship; Steam boilers, 
smoke stacks, and water tanks; iron, tin, and other roofing, iron, 
shutters, doors, and railings, wire fences, &c. For iron surfaces, 
this paint is especially valuable, as it forms a galvanic connec¬ 
tion, and entirely prevents rust. May be had both dry and 
ground in oil. 
In preparing these paints for use, when dry, they should not 
only be slightly mingled with oil, but thoroughly worked in with 
as little of it as may be necessary to give the proper fluidity, 
when they will cover well and and give entire satisfaction. When 
ground in oil, they are treated in all respects like white lead.

sets of boxes ; the most of which have only been in use from one 
to two years ; with a sufficient quantity of round trees to cut at 
least 20 sets more ; the land upon which thi.se are situated, is 
not easily surpassed by any piney lands in Eastern Carolina.

I think the buildings altogether are seldom excelled. Those 
wishing to purchase are invited to examine for themselves. 
Terms shall be low, and payments accommodating. Come and

sufficient number of teams and wagons to carry on both the op¬ 
erations of farm and turpentine, and with a year’s supply of pro¬
