A LBANY NURSERY.—This establishment now of¬ 
fers perhaps the best collection of Pears now in the 
country; [see the June number of the Cultivator.] Also, 
Apples, Peaches, Plums, Ornamental Trees, Green-House 
Plants, &c. &c. A catalogue will soon be printed, and for¬ 
warded to order. Address J. BUEL & Co. post-paid. tf 
^T^^rBj'U'OR SALE—The subscriber wishing <g r2 
fj —JL 1 to close up his business, offers for sale'=TT-4 
the valuable Iron and Lumber Establishment, formerly own¬ 
ed and occupied by Penfield & Taft, situated on Putts creek, 
six miles from Lake Champlain, in Crown Point, Essex co. 
N. Y. The premises in question consist of a valuable water 
power, with a fall of more than 100 feet within sixty rods; 
on which there is now in operation a Grist-Mill with three 
run of stones, propelled by an overshot wheel; two Saw- 
Mills, one with overshot wheel and double gear, all nearly 
new and in good order; a Forge with two fires; and a ma¬ 
chine shop for pounding and separating ore. The water for 
propelling these works is held in reserve by four ponds or 
reservoirs on the premises; the upper one being about 2J 
miles in length, forming an ample reservoir for the whole 
works below, and affording sufficient water in itself for driv¬ 
ing a forge with four fires and a rolling mill. 
Adjoining the works are 600 acres of land, one-fourth of 
which is under good cultivation; on which are five dwelling- 
houses, convenient barns and out-houses, a store, blacksmith 
shop, and buildings convenient for other purposes. 
There is also 1,000 acres of fine timbered land lying two 
or three miles from the above described works. Also, about 
five miles distant are 800 acres fine timbered land, on which 
are two Saw-Mills, and one of the richest, most extensive 
and valuable beds of iron ore yet found in the U. States. 
Also, 1,900 acres of land in the towns of Schroon and 
West Moriah, Essex co. the greater part of which is covered 
with pine timber; 100 acres of which is under good culture, 
and on which is a good saw-mill, blacksmith shop, several 
dwelling-houses, barns and out-houses. 
Also, one-half of a farm of 130 acres, situate on Lake Cham¬ 
plain, near the mouth of Putts creek, 2-3ds of it under good 
improvement; on which there is a large and convenient wharf. 
On examining the above described premises, they will be 
found to combine unparalleled advantages for prosecuting an 
extensive business in the manufacture of lumber and iron, 
and for the sale of ore. 
Such parts or parcels of the premises as are necessary for 
prosecuting the manufacture of iron and the sale of ore, will 
be disposed of separately from, or in connexion with, the lum¬ 
bering establishment, as may suit the purchaser. 
For the terms of sale, and all further particulars, inquire of 
the subscriber on the premises. ALLEN PENFIELD. 
UOR SALE—A Splendid Country Seat in the 
iiTlIf -t 1 Highlands, on the Hudson River. That beau- 
TPIH tiful country residence, known by the name of the 
BEVERLY ESTATE, containing four hundred acres of land, 
about two hundred of which are fine level arable soil, of an 
excellent quality, in a good state of cultivation, and not sur¬ 
passed by any on the river for fertility; the remainder is fine 
and thrifty timber land. The situation is the most eligible on 
the Hudson, extending one mile and a half on the river, with 
a bold shore and convenient dock, nearly opposite West- 
Point, and within fifty miles of New-York. The prospect is 
extensive and diversified, reaching from St. Anthony’s Peak 
on the south, to the bay and city of Newburgh on the north. 
This estate can conveniently be divided into three farms, giv¬ 
ing an equal proportion of front on the river, and of arable 
and timber land to each. Almost every enclosure is supplied 
with living springs of the purest water. There is on said es¬ 
tate a plain house, (formerly the head-quarters of Gen. Ar¬ 
nold;) also out-houses necessary to carry on the business of 
the farm. The single fact that during the whole'time the 
cholera raged throughout the state, not one case occurred 
within ten miles of this place, is sufficient to prove the unri¬ 
valled salubrity of the situation. The facilities of intercourse 
with the city, that can be reached in four hours, by means of 
numerous steam-boats, are great, and daily increasing, both# 
as regards pleasure, and the convenience of a near market for 
produce of every description. •> 
For conditions of sale, apply to STEPHEN A. HALSEY, 
189 Water-street, New-York, or RICHARD D. ARDEN, on 
the adjoining farm. Ardenia, 23d April, 1839. j6t

M ULBERRY TREES.—a few thousand Mulberry 
Trees are for sale at the Albany Nursery. They con¬ 
sist of the Multicaulis, Brussa, Chinese, that is, the product 
of Chinese seed, and the common white. The prices will 
depend upon size and quality. The Brussa is more hardy 
than,the common, and the Chinese about as hardy; and the 
threVlrinds are believed to be equal, if not superior, to the 
Multidaulis, for silk; though it is proper 4 to add, none of the 
mulberries that we have tried are propagated with so much 
facility, from buds and cuttings, as the multicaulis. The, 
prices will be conformed to the average market pricg'. - tf

nPO THE SILK GROWERS OF THE UNITED 
X STATES.—In consequence of the difficulty of purchas¬ 
ing cocoons in the present state of the silk culture in this 
country, (competent agents for the purchase, at a distance, 
are not at present to be had,) and as the reeling of the co¬ 
coons is the foundation of the whole business in a national 
point of view, the subscriber is induced to receive cocoons 
from all parts of the country, to be reeled on shares, in the 
Italian style, for exportation; the silk to be returned to the 
owner, or the market price in cash, as may be desired. Per¬ 
sons sending cocoons for reeling, will please name for what 
purpose it is intended, whether for Sewing Silk, which re¬ 
quires 20 to 25 cocoons (or fibres to the thread,) or the finer 
qualities for weaving, say from 6 to 10, inclusive, and the 
product will necessarily vary with the quality of the cocoons. 
Worms poorly fed will produce light thin cocoons, and many 
of them so light that they will fill with water and sink, and 
consequently be lost. Cultivators will therefore see the im¬ 
portance of producing good cocoons—the largest are not al¬ 
ways the best. The cocoons should be firm and hard to the 
touch. A large spongy cocoon will not yield much silk. 
The terms for reeling for the present season, will be 20 per 
cent of the silk produced from each parcel of cocoons, which 
as they will be necessarily received in small parcels, will be 
attended with more trouble and expense than in after years, 
when the feeding of silk worms will be as extensively fol¬ 
lowed as is now the growing of cotton. 
SAMUEL WHITMARSH. 
Northampton, Mass. July 8, 1839. 
N. B. The cocoons should be thoroughly seasoned before 
packing; they should not be damp, as they will heat in trans¬ 
portation. All bad cocoons in which the worms have died, 
should be rejected. They may be packed in flour barrels or 
boxes, with holes bored in the top and bottom, to give air, or 
in bags within crates, or in any way to prevent crushing them. 
They should not be crowded, but shaken into the barrels with 
the doss on. They may be shipped from any part of the U. 
States, direct to Hartford or New-Haven, Conn, whence they 
will be received by the canal ‘ or river boats, directed to 
“ Samuel Whitmarsh, Northampton, Mass.” sept-2t..

And purchasers can test for.themselves, any seeds of which 
they are distrustful, by sowing a few in a box of fine earth, 
and placing it in a warm room, exposed to the sun, where, 
if kept moist, the seed, if good, will vegetate in a reasona¬ 
ble time. In all cases where seeds prove 1 to be bdS[, they

flatters himself he will be able fully to meet the wishes and 
expectations of the public, and make the ALBANY SEED

with whom I am unacquainted, without remitting payment, 
are expected to give references in this city or New-York.

Cattle, for several years past bred on the farm of L. F. Allen, 
on Grand-Island. 
The herd consists of about thirty, including Cows, Bulls, 
Heifers and Calves. Several of them have been imported 
by one of the subscribers, direct from England, and with 
their produce, are surpassed by few animals in the country. 
In addition to these, every animal offered is the direct de¬ 
scendant of thorough bred imported stock, and of unques¬ 
tionable purity of blood. 
With the above will be sold twenty select and beautiful 
animals, consisting of pure Devon; crosses of different de¬ 
grees between the Devon and Improved Short-Horns; cross¬ 
es of the Alderney and Ayresliire with the Short-Horns. 
These are Cows, Heifers and Calves, all superior animals.

FOUNDER,” got by imported Bellfoun- 
der, the best thoraugh-bred trotting horse 
ever in America, and out of the imported 
mare Lady Allport, bred by T. T. Kis- 
sam, Esq. of Long-Island. The stock of this horse is unsur¬ 
passed in the country for size, speed and action—together 
with several elegant, thorough-bred breeding mares and fillies, 
and two or three young horse colts, the produce of the above. 
These animals are of the highest character as roadsters, and 
as trotters, no blood in the country has excelled them. They 
are all from the best stables of Long-Island. Also, a beauti¬ 
ful pair of full-bred matched fillies, five years old. All these 
horses are blood bay. 
This entire stock will be sold without reserve, to the high¬ 
est bidder, commencing at 10 o’clock A. M. They can be 
shipped within an hour from the farm, on board the steam¬ 
boats to go up the Lakes, or on board canal boats at the farm.

previous to the sale. A credit of sixty days will be given on 
approved notes or acceptances, payable at a bank either in 
Buffalo, Albany, or New-York, for all sums over $300.

EW-YORK URATE AND POUDRETTE 
COMPANY, not incorporated, but carried on by indi¬ 
vidual enterprise. The manures are not divided among the 
stockholders, as are those belonging to another establishment, 
but sold to applicants for cash on delivery. Orders are sup¬ 
plied in the order of time in which they are received. Urate 
50 cents and Poudrette 40 cents per bushel, with contingent 
charges for bags or barrels, &c. 
The company are daily preparing for use, during the warm 
dry weather, the materials collected during the past winter, 
and will have several thousand bushels ready before the first 
of October next. The material is disinfected and rendered 
free from offensive smell by a compound, every part of which 
is in itself a good manure. The experience of the past and 
present year, 1838 and 1839, on Long Island, has satisfied 
many of the farmers that these manures have the quickest 
operation upon vegetable matter, producing greater abun¬ 
dance, and the cheapest of any manure they have ever tried. 
Amended instructions for their use, the result of practical 
experience, will be furnished on application. The effect of 
Poudrette upon grape vines and morus multicaulis is beyond 
all comparison. This company are erecting large and ex¬ 
tensive works in the vicinity of the city of New-York to 
prepare the manures; and farmers and gardeners may confi¬ 
dently rely on a supply. Orders, post paid, directed to “The 
New-York Urate and Poudrette Company,” box number 1,- 
211, post-office, New-York, or sent to the store of STILL¬ 
WELL & DEY, number 365, Fulton-street, Brooklyn, will 
be attended to. Neio- York, July 17, 1839. 
The company will be very much obliged to gentlemen who 
have used the manures, to give them a statement in writing 
what has been the result of their use and experiments in re¬ 
lation to them. aug-4t.
