ALBANY MARKET— April 22. 
■' To-day canal navigation was resumed. Up to 12 
AI. 60 boats had cleared at the Collector's office in 
this city. On the first day and up to the same hour 
last year, 77 were cleared. There arc a goodly 
number of boats still in the basin apparently idle, 
and we learn from forwarders that the amount of 
merchandise going west to-day will fall considerably 
short of last year. 
A stiff south-east wind has prevailed during the 
morning, accompanied with much rain, which ef¬ 
fectually put a quietus to all out-door operations. 
In going our usual rounds this morning, we gath¬ 
ered but little information that would be interesting 
to OTir renders, and but few sales worthy of notice. 
In flour there was scarcely enough doing to estab¬ 
lish quotations. The sales reported arc some one 
or two hundred barrels at the advanced rates of 
Saturday. We could not hear of a single transac¬ 
tion in grain. For good lots of Barley to arrive buy¬ 
ers offered 68c. Provisions arc quiet; sales 2,000 
lbs. smoked meats at 4i for Western shoulders, and 
6j for do. hams. Receivers of whiskey have put 
up Prison to 23^0. at which a lot of 40 bbls. at the 
road was held.— Jour. 
BUFFALO MARKET—April 22. 
The markets during the whole of last week, pre¬ 
sented a very quiet appearance. Some sales of 
flour 1 nd wheat took place, but not sufficient ’to 
serve as a mark for quotations. The announcement 
by telegraph, of the arrival of the steamship Amer¬ 
ica, and the advance of Is on flour had the effect to 
check openitions, and induce holders to evince a 
disposition not to operate. 
Flour—Michigan is held at $4 75®4 81. 
Wheat—The last (luotations were for Ohio, $1, 
Illinois 83c. 
Corn—There is a fair inquiry for this article, but 
there is none in the market. It is offered at 45c. to 
arrive. 
Oats are in good request and woukl readily bring 
34 cents. 
Highwines sell readily at 20c.

WHEELER^S PATENT farmers and gardeners i 
IMPROVED RAIL'WAY CHAIN HORSE PO'WER 
& OVERSHOT THRESHER dr SEPARATOR. 
T he Subscribers, Proprietors of the Patent for 
these Machines, and manufacturers of them, 
having recently increased their facilities for manu¬ 
facturing, are now prepared to fill orders for ma¬ 
chines, and to establish and supply agencies, to any 
extent that may be desired. 
These machines arc favorably known wherever 
they have been used or exhibited. They have ta¬ 
ken premiums at many different State and County 
Fairs held in Massachusetts, New' York, New Jer¬ 
sey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and also in Canada, never 
having competed for premiums without success and 
flattering commendations. 
As many as 2,000 of them are now in use, of 
which over .500 were sold the past season. 
The acc()rapanying cut gives a view of a two 
horse machine at work, with the hand! necessary to 
attend it. It will thresh from 125 to 200 bushels of 
wheat, or twice the quantity of oats per day. The 
one horse or single machines thresh rather more 
than half as fast as the double ones. , 
These horse powers are strong and durable, and 
run extremely light. With one end of the power 
slightly elevated (as represented in the annexed 
cut) the weight of the horse alone affords sufficient 
power to thresh at the rate before stated, or to drive 
circular and upright saws, or any other machines 
used by farmers requiring propelling power. 
THE OVERSHOT TFHIESHER 
takes the grain from a level feeding table or apron, 
(of a proper height to allow the feeder to stand 
erect and feed without annoyance from dust,) and 
passes it through a toothed or spiked concave or 
bed, placed over the cylinder. A recent improve¬ 
ment admits of lowering the concave so as to bring 
it nearer the cylinder, and at the same time so va- 
rying the inclination of the spikes as to set the ma¬ 
chine for threshing tough or damp grain, or short 
oats, .and re-setting it at pleasure, for long rye or 
wheat, or oats in good order, or for timothy grass or 
clover ond all this is accomplished without stopping 
the machine, so simple is the process. By means 
of the Separator the straw, as it comes from the 
Thresher is effectually separated from the grain. 
I he Power Thresher and Separator, complete, for 
either one or two horses, is easily loaded on a com¬ 
mon farm wagon; but where frequent moving is de¬ 
sired, the two horse machines are placed on wheels 
in such a manner that when used for threshing, the 
forward wheels are removed, dropping that end of 
the power, and leaving the opposite end elevated on 
the other axle'ready to receive the horses. By this 
arrangement, (which has been made for the conven¬ 
ience of those who make threshing a business and 
for partnership machines) two men can with ease 
set a two horse machine ready for work in 15 min¬ 
utes, and reload it for moving in the same time. 
W., M. & Co., also manufacture Stalk, Hay and 
Straw Cutters, to be used with their horse powers; 
and also Circular Saws and Benches, for cutting 
ordinary firewood, and locomotive and other fuel. 
Every machine made or sold by W., M. & Co., 
or their Agents, is warranted to work to the sat¬ 
isfaction of the purchaser, or it may be returned to 
them, or to the Agent of whom it may have been 
purchased, within sixty days, and the purchase mo- 
ney, [if paid,] will be refunded. 
These machines are so light, compact, and easily 
handled as to admit of transportation to any part of 
the country with trifling expense. The weight of 
the two horse machine, complete, being less than 
2,000 pounds, and of the one horse, about 1,200. 
The manufacturers arc now establishing agencies 
in all parts of the United States and CanaiJas, where 
they are needed to facilitate the sale of these ma¬ 
chines. Good agents are wanted in the southern 
and western States and the Canadas, to whom lib¬ 
eral commissions will be allowed. Our Agents as 
far as definitely ascertained are—

SEYMOUR’ GRAIN DRlULo 
T his drill, winch was patented in Septem- 
l>er, 1849, is one of the latest improvements in 
Drilling Machines, and better adapted to the wants 
of the farmer than any other now before the public. 
It sows or plants all kinds of gniin and seeds, from 
peas, Ixians, corn and cotton, to the smallest seeds— 
and combines the advantages of sowing either broad 
cast or in drills. It is an excellent Broad Cast Sow¬ 
ing Machine, when the drill teeth and conducting 
tubes, (which are very conveniently detached,) are 
taken off. 
Many farmers so;d': their wheat in brine or other 
liquid, (in which the good seed sink.s while the foul 
floats off,) for the double purpose of separating it 
frorn foul seed and rolling it in lime, plaster or other 
fertilizing substances. 'This has the advantage over 
other drills, inasmuch ns it performs well iu sowing 
grain thus prepared, wdiile they utterly fail in the at¬ 
tempt. Wet wheat, oats or white caps, which so 
readily clog other machines, are not serious obsta¬ 
cles in this. Those who wish to soak their seed for 
any purpose whatever, or mix with it any fine fer- 
[ tilizers, such as lime, plaster, bone dust, &c.,—and 
also those who prefer thrashing with a flail, to avoid 
the injury done to the seed by thrashing with a 
machine —will find 'TIUS 'THE DRILL FOR 
THEM. 
When drilling with this machine, the grain falls 
from the grain-box to the tubes, [a space of six 
inches,) in full view of the person attending it — 
so that, in passing over the field, he may be con- 
stontly ASSURED that the seed is deposited as he de¬ 
signs. 'The teeth are all raised from the ground at 
once, with one lever, and the seed all stooped at 
once; or one may be raised at a time, and the seed 
it discharges stopped. 
'The convenience and simplicity with which this 
machine is managed is unparalleled. No necessary 
expense or pains have been spared in making it as 
desirable, in all respects, ns possible, and after 
and the most satisfactory experiments — not in the 
winter on the floor of the machine shop merely, but 
in seeding time, with the farmer, under I’arious cir¬ 
cumstances, on rough and smooth, hilly and level, 
stony and clear land—the inventor (who was bred 
a practical farmer, and ought to know something of 
the farmer’s wants,) feels assured that the machine 
is not only established on correct principles, but is 
got up in that simple and pennanent style and good 
taste which cannot fail to suit all. 
'The first premium, for a Grain Drill capable of de¬ 
positing fine manures with the grain, was awarded 
to this Alachine at the Fair of the New York State 
Agricultural Society, held at Syracuse in Sept., 
1849. It also received the first premium at the 
Michigan State Fair, in 1849, and the first premium 
of the Ontario County Society.

A few certificates, from the most reuaule sources, 
are subjoined:— 
Mr. Seymour — Sir; With the Grain Drill which 
I purchased of you this season, my son, a lad 16 
years of age, has put in about 50 acres of wheat for 
me, and with some of it about a bushel and a half 
per acre of ashes and hen dung was mixed, and all 
to my entire satisfaction. He has also drilled in 
about 100 acres for others, and 1 believe all are well 
pleased with the Machine, and I must say I prefer it 
to any I have seen. IRA R. BECK. 
East Bloomfield, <S’ept., 17, 1849.' 
Mr. P. Seymow —Dear (Sir: You ask for my 
opinion with regard to the Wheat Drill I purchased 
of you this fall. Without specifying particulars, I 
would express my unqualified approbation of it over 
that of any other which I have seen in use. I am 
somewhat enthusiastic on the subject of drilling — 
believing it will soon bo universally adopted by far¬ 
mers. 1 would not willingly disparage the patents 
of other individuals. 
In haste, with great respect, yours, &c.. 
Gates, (Sept. 10, 1849. CALVIN SPERRY. 
'This may certify, that I have used Mr. Pierpont 
Seymour’s Wheat Drill, and i consider it just the 
thing for putting in wheat. WM. O'TLS. 
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 Ira R. Peck. I am personally acquaint¬ 
ed w’ith Mr. Peck. His statement can be fully re¬ 
lied on. 'The other certificates, I have no doubt, 
are from equally reliable sources. I have myself 
heard the Drill spoken of in high terms of commen¬ 
dation, by farmers who had used it; and have also 
seen it in operation, and believe it to be at least one 
of the very best in use. I 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 be likely to make in regard to the Drill 
would be strictly true. ISAAC W. MTTCHELL. 
Justice of the Peace. 
East Bloomfield, Feb. 5, 1850. 
SEYMOUR’S GARDEN DRILL 
Is a small Machine of suitable size to be drawn by 
a man. It is got up on the principles of the Graiu 
Drill, and will plant peas, beans, beets, and even 
(Uirrots, or any kind of garden seeds, mixed with 
plaster, &c. It is very convenient for large gar¬ 
deners, as it will sow five rows at once as readily as 
the Garden Drills in common use will sow one, and 
is much less liable to clog. 
SKYMOUIl’S BROAD CAST SOWING MACUINK. 
This machine is well known in Western New- 
York, and is universally acknowledged to be the 
best implement in our country, for the purposes for 
which it is intended. It sows correctly, all kinds 
of Grain, (and nay desired quantity per acre,) from 
peas to grass seed — including wheat, rye, oats, bur- ‘ 
ley, buckwheat, rice, hemp, flax, clover and tim¬ 
othy seed. Also plaster, lime, salt, ashes, bone 
dust, &c. ifcc. It is capable of dusting every inch 
of ground on an acre of land with less than half a 
bushel of plaster; and thirty or forty bushels of 
lime may be thus evenly applied to the same amount 
of land, if desired. It sow's 10 feet wide. 
'This machine has been much improved by sub¬ 
stituting iron in several important parts in the place 
of wood, making it a very durable article. It has 
taken the fir.st premium atlive County and two State 
Agricultunil Fairs. 
T3:S'riMONIALS. 
'The following certificates show the public senti¬ 
ment in regard to this machine: 
We, the undersigned, being well acquainted with 
Seymour’s Broad-cast (Showing Machine, do say it is 
well adapted to all the purposes for which it is de¬ 
signed, and it far exceeds all others of which we 
have any knowledge. 
DAV'ID C. BA'TF.S, Canandaigua, 
SAMUEL II. ANDREWS, do. 
RUFUS HUMPHREY, Victor, 
DAVID CLARK, Seneca. 
This may certify, that I have used Seymour’s 
(Sowing Machine, in sowing oats, barley, peas, 
clover and herds gra.ss seed, and it operates to my 
utmost satisfaction. I sowed 30 bushels of oats, 8 
bushels of pens, and 20 bushels of barley iu one 
day, and I think 30 acres a reasonable day’s work. 
J. II. GL\iS/S>, Avon, Liv. Co. 
Mr. Seymour —Dear (Sir; The Sowing Machine 
I purchased of you in (September last, fully answers 
the recommendations, and I think it among tlie best 
farming implements of which ourcountry can boast. 
J. HOLLOWAY, York, Liv. Co. 
Mr. Seymour — It gives me pleasure to state that 
I have used your Sowing Alachine with much suc¬ 
cess. JABEZ GODDARD, York, Liv, Co. 
I have used for two seasons past, P. Seymour’s 
Sowing Machine for sowing gniin and plaster. For 
sowing grain it is excellent on account of sowing .so 
much more evenly than can be sowed by hand. In 
sowing plaster, it is invaluable on accountofits sav¬ 
ing labor as well as avoiding the very disagreeable 
dust that arises from it.
