Rochester, Sept. 7, 1849. 
I have examined certian certificates in the hands 
of Mr. Seymour, in favor of his Grain Drill, one of 
them from IraR. Peck. I am personally acquai.it- 
ed with Mr. Peck. His statement c.m be fully re¬ 
lied on. Tho other certilieate.s, I have no doubt, 
are from equally reliable sources, 1 have myself 
heard the Drill spoken of in high terms of commen¬ 
dation, by farmers who hod used it; and have also 
seen it in operation, and believe it to be at least one 
of the very best in use. 1 was present at the State 
Fair, in September last, where the first premium 
was awarded to Mr. Seymour for his Drill. I have 
the confidence that any statement which Mr. Sey¬ 
mour would bo likely to make in regard to the Drill 
would be strictly true. ISAAC K. MITCHELL,
