Cincinnati, Ohio, June 10.—The feeling in the market costinues 
about the same as heretofore noticed. Dealers ar t with a great deal 
of indifference, and seem inclined to wait until the article is brought 
to market, instead of visiting the various points to purchase. The 
impression seems to be that prices of washed will rule from 20 to 35 
cents per pound. The stocks in the hands of manufacturers are large, 
and the woolen trade is so generally depressed that there is no induce¬ 
ment to operate, except at prices which must be considered safe un¬ 
der all contingencies — Gazette. 
Chicago, Ill —The Prairit Farmer in a review of an aitfcle upon 
the prospects of the Wool market, says:—" The T I ibune predicts that 
the price of wool will range low for the next twelve months, and offers 
as reasons for so thinking, the losses on last year’s purchase, the gen¬ 
eral aspects of trade at home and abroad, and especially in the manu¬ 
facturing districts, the dullness and Inactivity in the woolen goods’ 
market, the stoppage of many of the largest mills in the United 
States, the large amount of capital sunk in the manufacturing busi¬ 
ness by capitalists the few years past, the large amount of old wool 
on the market in Boston, Providence, New York and Philadelphia, 
and the fact that the new dip will in all probability be large. All 
these reasons are worth consideration, and some of them are but too 
well founded; yet we believe that the price of wool in Chicago, w ill 
be lower in June than in July or August. Last year the new clip 
commenced coming in about the 10th of June, fine Saxony fleeces 
ranging as follows:—Full-blood, 45c.; % blood, 40o ; blood, 36c.; 
blood, 30c ; native, 25 to 27c for washed fleeces, making the aver¬ 
age cost of the Illinois and Wisconsin wools 40 cents.” 
The London Farnw’a Magazine, in its review of tire wool trade for 
the last year, says that American wool even surpasses many of the 
foreign wools for felting properties, and for its suitability for making 
fight or heavy broad-cloth. Samples have been obtained from Amer¬ 
ican flocks which contained 2 ,r .22 serrations to the inch, while the finest 
Saxony wools from Hungary will only contain about 2,400 serrations. 
The same authority says:—“From a car ful review ef the whole

IMPORTANT TO FARMERS! 
THE BUCKEYE ROTATING HARROW. 
I N offering this implement to farmers we do it with the confident 
expectation that they will find it an implement after which they 
have long been seeking, namely, a thorough pulverizer of the soil 
TO FARMERS 
We would say, read the following from “The Onto Farmer* op 
May fiist: 
“An entire change hi the form of the Harrow has keen projected 
which in our opinion bids fair to supercede the old-fashioned forms.— 
It consists of a frame made of cross bars, the ends of which, and 
points of junction, are armed with teeth in the usual form. The 
method by which circular motion is produced in this Harrow, is very- 
simple. The center of the wheel or frame rotates freely on a pin o r 
Journal, and to this pin is attached a lever, one arm of which stands at 
right angles with the other. To one of these the horse or ox is fastened 
by proper appliances, while the end of the other arm carrh s a weight 
This makes the one side of the barrow heavier than the other, and 
tV.us sinks the teeth of that side deeper in the soil. When this Harrow 
;s dragged over the ground, the teeth on the fight side move rapidly 
forward, and thus change their relative position, and thus each tooth 
in turn acts as the fulcrum on which all tire rest move. By this 
means, lines forme d by the teeth are in the center nearly rhomboidal, 
while at the sides they cut each other at very acute angles. The 
ground by this means is thoroughly pulverized, and no furrows are 
left on tire surface, and if a large stone or root should obstruct the 
passage of the Harrow, it will pass arour.d. Instead of clogging, by 
getting large clods fastened between tho teeth, this circular motion 
e ither grinds those up, or throws them aside at once. We know tha 
this form of Harrow will soon supercede the old one in the estimation 
of our Farmers, for we have seen it in operation, and it does its work 
well and thoroughly, saving labor, and making a more even field by 
a more thorough comminution of the surface, and a filling up of 
furrows.” 
These Harrows are made of the best material, and in the best style 
of workmanship. They are delivered at the depot, to be shipped ac¬ 
cording te directions, on the receipt of fifteen dollars. All orders ad¬ 
dressed to ROBINSON 4 CO., 21 Bank St, Cleveland, Ohio, will 
r eceived prompt attention. 
TO PATENT-RIGHT MEN. 
The Improvement, called the Buckey e Rotating Harrow, recently 
patented by Mr. DeAVitt and O. I). Barrett, of this city, is having a 
more rapid sale than any other improvement that has come to onr no¬ 
tice for many a year. Read what the great patent- vender of the West 
says. R. Fanning, of Clarksfield, Huron county, Ohio, now selling 
in Indiana, under date of May second, to the patentees says:—“I 
never saw a thing get up so great an excitement as the Harrow does. 
The farmers speak well of it to a man." The patentees in<end to sell 
out a part of their territory immediately. They will make arrange, 
nients with energetic patent-venders to take hold of this improvement 
<n such a way as to insure larger returns to the venders than can be 
obtained by selling any other light. 
For further information, address the General Agents for the United 
States, ROBINSON 4 CO., 21 Bank St., Cleveland, Ohio. 
TO MECHANICS. 
There is no business that pays as well as the Agricultural Imple¬ 
ment Manufacturing business at the present time. Notwithstanding 
the present hard times, all this class of manufacturers are receiving 
more orders this year than ever before. Men hi every part of the 
country, with exclusive privileges, are wanted to engage in toe manu¬ 
facturing of the BUCKEYE ROTATING HARROW. Any com¬ 
mon mechanic can start toe business. For further information, 
address ROBINSON 4 CO, 
21 Bank btreet, Cleveland, Ohio. 
TO CAPITALISTS. 
One of the best opportunities is now offered for capitalists te invest 
their funds so that instead of drawing from six to tea per cent, they 
will draw from seventy five to one hundred per cent Every one 
knows that genuine agricultural improvements have invariably enriched 
all who have invested in them.

I N order to advance the interests of Agriculture more effectually 
than I can by spending money in attending public trials, which 
often are very unsatisfactory to toe public, I offer the following 
premiums: 
1st-ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS 
To toe farmer who shall cut the greatest number of acres of grass and 
grain, in the shortest time, in the best manner, and with the least ex¬ 
pense, with Ketchum’s Combined Machine, manufactured this year, 
during toe ensuing harvest 
2d-ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS 
To the former who shall cut with any Ketchum Combined Machine, 
not less than fifty acres of grass and fifty acres of grain iu like manner. 
3d.—ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS 
To the farmer who shall ent one hundred acres of grass, with any 
Ketchnm Mower, in like manner. 
4th—FIFTY DOLLARS 
To the farmer, who shall cut fifty acres of grass, in like manner, with 
any Ketchum Mower. 
5th.—TWENTY-FIVE DOLLARS 
To toe fanner, who shall harvest twenty acres of clover seed, with any 
Ketchum Mac-hine, iu like manner. 
The grass must yield not less than one and a half tons to toe acre. 
The said work to be done with machines manufactured by the sub¬ 
scriber, at Buffalo, N. Y. 
Farmers competing for toe above premiums shall forward an affida¬ 
vit or affidavits, setting forth the facts, viz: the kind of land, crop and 
amount thereof per acre, toe quality of work, length of stubble, time 
occupied, giving toe hours, and tile expense incurred for labor or re¬ 
pairs, stating each item and such other circumstances as may be 
proper, together with the number of the machine and toe year pur¬ 
chased, to T. C. Peters, of Darien, Gen. Co., N. Y, before toe 1st of 
September next, who shall have tire privilege of making or having 
a personal examination made, or may require additional proof before 
making his award. 
I will furnish blanks for affidavits to any person, and reserve tho 
privilege of publishing any of die statements and toe awards in my 
next circular. Two premiums shall not be uwarded to the same person. 
The result of accurate trials of this kind, will enable the public to 
Judge with more certainty of toe value of Reaping and Mowing Ma¬ 
chines compan d with the "cythe and cradle, than can be done at trials 
as usually conducted, for the reason that so small a quantity of either 
grass or grain is cut, that it is difficult for Committees to judge with 
scrupulous accuracy of toe features and capacity of the different ma¬ 
chines. R. L. HOWARD,

THE NEW YORK SELF-RAKING REARER, 
WITH MOWER COMBINED. 
SEYMOUR & MORGAN’S PATENT, 
Improved for th.e Harvest of 185Q. 
A S A REAPER it is more simple, and less liable to got out of 
repair than any other Self Raker,—is easier lor the team than 
any hand-raker of equal width of cut—leaves a clean stubble of any 
desirable height. Rakes off the grain better than is ordinarily done 
by tile best hand rakes. The size of the bundle is easily regulated by 
u slight pressure of toe driver’s foot, and Is operated with the least 
possible amount of manual labor. 
The Sell-Raker was awarded too First Premium at toe Natioual 
Trial in J uly last. 
As a Mower, it is lighter iu draught than many machines which 
cut less width of swath;—leaves the cut grass in good condition, und 
stalls at any point without backing to get up motion of tho knite before 
coming to toe grass. Tbe motion of the knife is changed from slow, 
for reaping, to fast for mowing, by using different sized pinions,—^se¬ 
curing a high motion when necessary, and avoiding it, and the conse¬ 
quent loss of power and wear of the gearing, when unnecessary. The 
same cutter bar is used for both reaping ami mowing, and the machine 
is easily and quickly converted to serve either purpose. 
For quality of material and workmanship, strength, durability and 
efficiency, it is, as manufactured by us, not excelled as a combined 
machine 
We manufacture two sizes,—one cutting five feet, designed for two 
horses; toe other cutting six feet or more, designed for four horses, 
(may be used with two) Circulars containing price, terms, testimo¬
