New York Market. 
NEW YORK, April 19.—ASHES—The market is firm 
with a fair demand, and sales of 75 bbls at 85 for Pots and 
85,75 for Pearls. 
I-'LOUR AND MEAL—There is no change to note in 
our m irket for Western and State Flour; the arrival of the 
steamer and the inclemency of the weather restricted the 
des. There is a moderate business doing for export and 
the British Provinces. The trade buys sparinglyjn view 
of 
SEYMOUR’S GRAIN URIEL.. 
T HIS Machine is established upon the principle of Sey¬ 
mour’s Broadcast Sowing Machine, and proves to be 
better adapted to the purposes for which a Grain Drill is 
wanted than any other which has been tested in our coun¬ 
try, being not only capable of sowing Wheat, but all grain 
and seed, from Peas, Corn and Cotton, to Grass Seed, eith¬ 
er broadcast or in DRii.i-s; and flue fertilizers, such as 
lime, plaster, guano, bone dust, &c., may be mixed with 
the grain if desired, or sown by itself broadcast. 
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 constantly assured that the send is deposited as 
he designs. The teeth are all raised from the ground at 
once, with one lever, and the seed all stopped at once; or 
any one may be raised at a time. The convenience and 
simplicity with which this machine is managed is unparal¬ 
leled. No necessary expense or pains have been spared in 
making it as desirable, in all respects, as possible, and af¬ 
ter many 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 various circumstan¬ 
ces; 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 as¬ 
sured that the Machine is not only established on correct 
.I principles, but is got up in that simple and permanent style 
A, 1 m Lihp'h. ~' 7 - and good taste which cannot fail lo suit all. Teeth 8 inch¬ 
es apart, or as ordered. 
The first premium for a Grain Drill, capable of deposit¬ 
ing fine manures with the grain, was awarded to this Ma¬ 
chine, at the Fair of the New York State Agricultural So¬ 
ciety, held at Syracuse in September, 1849—and again by 
the same Society at the Fair in Albany, in 1850. It also re¬ 
ceived the first premium at the Michigan State Fair in 1849, 
and the first premium of the Ontario County Society. It 
has been much improved within the last fifteen mouths.

Albany Market 
ALBANY, April 21, 6 I’. M.—FLOUR—Nothing of im¬

ARRIVAL OF THK PROMETHEUS. 
New York, April 19. 
The California news by the Prometheus, though 
tea davs later, is not of much importance. 
In consequence of the continued dry weather 
the hopes of the miners have been greatly disaf 
pointed. 
The Prometheus brings no gold, but we learn 
that $2,000,000 is on the way to the Atlantic 
States and had arrived at Panama. 
The drought occasioned a great depression in 
business of all kinds. 
Bounty Land Warrants, 
Bv the appropriation hill of the 3d ultimo, a re 
striction is imposed relative to the location of 
Bounty Land Warrants, which, from its being in 
so inappropriate a place, is not generally known 
and as many holders are now making arrange 
monte, and some of them expensive ones, to have 
their warrants located upon the valuable mineral 
and other lands about to bo brought into market 
the ensueing summer and fall, it is suggested that 
it bo made more public. We therefore publish the 
provision, as follows: 
“ That no land bounty for military services 
granted by the act of 28th September, 1850, on 
titled 4 An act granting bounty land to certain of 
ficers and soldiers who have engaged in the mili 
tary service of the United States,’ or by virtue of

Mr. Seymour—Sir: With the Grain Drill which I pur¬ 
chased from you this season, my son, a lad 10 years of age, 
has put in about 50 acres of wheat for ine, 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. And 1 must 
say I prefer it to any I have ever seen. Ira R. Peck.

BRIGHTON, April 17.—At market, 750 Beef Cattle, no

by farmers. I would not willingly disparage the patents of 
other individuals. With great respect, yours, &c., 
Calvin Sperry. 
I have examined several certificates in the hands of Mr. 
Seymour, in favor of his Grain Drill, one of them from Ira 
R. Peck. I am personally acquainted with Mr. Peck. His 
statements can be fully relied on. The other certificates, I 
have no doubt, are from equally reliable sources. I have 
myself, heard the Drill highly spoken'of by farmers who 
have used it; and have also seen it in operation, and be¬ 
lieve 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 he likely to make in regard to the Drill, would 
be strictly true. Isaac W. Mitchell,

T HE subscriber having built a large addition to his Fac¬

a tile machine, after the same pattern as the the one im¬ 
ported from England by JonN Delakiejd, Esq., ot Seneca 
Co., N. Y. He has now about 20,000 ready for field and 
cellar drains, and intends to manufacture 200,000 this sea¬ 
son. The price will vary according to size, from $3 to 
®1C per thousand. Flats half the price of tile. A thou¬ 
sand will lay between 65 and 70 rods of drain, and 40 rod 
of three inch tile, make a load for a good team. 
N. B. Any Farmer that will come and get a load of tile, 
and drain some wet swale with them; and when he has 
had two crops of grain on the land, if he will say that its 
improvement and extra yield of crops don't pay 21 per cent 
interest on the outlay, I will make up that amount to him at 
his request.

spacious Manufactory, and otherwise extend their meansoi 
promptly filling orders. Their Powers and Threshers have

Seymours’s Broadcast Sowing Machine! 
T HIS Machine is well known in Western N. Y., 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 any desired quanti¬ 
ty per acre) from peas to grass seed—moulding wheat, rye, 
oats, barley, buckwheat, rice, hemp, flax, clover and timo¬ 
thy seed. Also plaster, lime, salt, ashes, bone dust, &c., 
&c. It is capable of dusting every inch of ground on an 
or 40 bushels of lime may be thus evenly applied to the 
same amount of land, if desired. It sows ten feet wide, or 
may be made narrower to order. This Machine has been 
much improved by substituting iron in several important 
parts m the place of wood, making it a very durable arti¬ 
cle. It has received the highest recommendations from 
hundreds of the best fanners in our country; among whom 
are Myron Adams, W W Gorham, 1) C Bates, Dea S H 
Andrews, Rufus Humphrey, Jared II Houghton, Levi 
Boughton, Hon RobtL Rose, Guy Collins, of Ontario county 
and others too numerous even to mention their names, in 
many parts of the United States, 
It has taken the First Premium at five County and three
