TITM. R. PRINCE & Co., successors of Wm. Frince, and so2e 
VV proprietors of his great collection, offer the largest and choicest 
assortment of Fruit and Ornamental Trees and Plants to be found 
in America, and will transmit Descriptive Catalogues to all post-paid 
applicants desirous to purchase. The choicest varieties of Fruits, 
which are scarce elsewhere, are here extensively cultivated, and ap¬ 
plicants will not be disappointed. Every desirable fruit enumerated 
by Downing, Manning, Kenrick, Hovey, and in the Catalogues of 
Europe, can be supplied. Of the finest varieties of Pears, 50,000 trees 
can be supplied, of which 15,000 are of bearing age on both the 
Pear and the Quince. Purchasers are solicited to visit the establish¬ 
ment and judge for themselves, but the same attention will be paid to 
the selection for all distant correspondents. The prices are as low 
and mostly lower than trees of equal quality can be elsewhere ob¬ 
tained. And above five hundred varieties of Fruit Trees, and a much 
larger number of Ornamental Trees, can be supplied, that cannot be 
obtained elsewhere in the Union, except in a few casual instances. 
Every premium for Roses and Strawberries was awarded to us by 
the Long Island Horticultural Society. 
A wholesale Catalogue will be sent to all venders. 
The transportation expense to the west is now moderate, and the 
Agent’s Receipt will be sent to each purchaser, which will prevent 
the possibility of loss. Cash or a reference can be sent with the 
order, by those who are strangers to us. Oct. 1, 1850—It.

Blatchly’s Plows. 
WE are now manufacturing and offer to the farming public these 
* ’ celebrated plows. We claim for these plows, that they are of 
light draft, laying the furrow more closely, covering vegetable matter 
completely, and from their height of beam, admirably adapted to 
plowing in clover. From the peculiar shape of the point, work 
admirably in hard gravelly and stony soils. Any person giving one 
a fair trial, and dissatisfied with its working, is at liberty to return it, 
and the money will be cheerfully refunded. One of them was exhi¬ 
bited at the State Fair, and will be remembered by many readers of 
the Cultivator.

Unrivaled Improvement in Water Wheels for 
Mill-Owners. 
T> ECENT improvements in the French Turbine and Scotch Mortar 
Water Wheels, exceeding all others, even the most perfect Over¬ 
shot Wheel, by a great percentage, has been patented by Mr. Henry 
Van Dewater. It has been fully tested, and found far in advance 
of all other wheels, both in power and economy, or quantity of 
water required. Its superiority is established in the following points : 
1st. It gives greater percentage of the water. 2d. Is not affected by 
back-water. 3d. Is not obstructed by ice. 4th. Wastes no water. 
5th. Is more durable. 6th. Requires less room. 7th. It is less varia¬ 
ble in its motion when performing more or less labor, with the same 
supply of water. 
The quantity of water required under different heads and falls, for 
six and a half horse power, say from 5 feet to 28 feet fall, first

tories, by the use of the above wheels, and will send us a statement 
of head and fall of water, and the amount of horse power required to 
drive the machinery they use, will receive immediate attention. 
KT* This wheel is capable of driving, according to the quantity 
water, and as the head and fall may be in height, from 6 horse-power 
to 250 horse-power. 
Mr. Jagger, is a practical and experienced mill-wright, and con¬ 
siders this the best Water Wheel that has ever been offered to the 
public. 
We have a large assortment of Machinery patterns, that have been 
collecting more than fifty years, and are ready at all times to furnish 
Castings, fitted or not, at short notice and on fair terms.

Emery & Co.’s 
New- York State Agricultural Society' 1 s first premium Railroad Horse 
Power and Thresher , (with the latest and important improvements , 
for which patent is secured.) 
rpHESE HORSE POWERS were exhibited in operation at the 
September Fair of the N. Y. S A Society, at Albany, in Com¬ 
petition with Wheeler’s, (still made and sold by us,) Allen’s, and se¬ 
veral others, including all of any note now before the public on the 
endless chain principle, where all were thoroughly examined, as the 
able report of the committee will testify, when they unanimously 
agreed to award E. & Co., the first premium for superior mechanical 
construction, durability, strength and power, (without regard 
to any former premiums which have heretofore been awarded to some 
of those in competition.) 
The demand for the above machines exceeds our most sanguine 
anticipations. Its superiority over any we have heretofore sold is 
demonstrated every day by those using them, and the unprecedented 
demand for the same—and lastly', by the full and able report of the 
Committee on Farming Machinery at our late State Society’s Fair. 
The Farming Public are assured that no expense will be spared to 
make our machines satisfactory in every respect. For further par¬ 
ticulars, terms, prices, warranty, description, Sec., see Catalogue, 
furnished gratis on application, by mail or otherwise, to

117HEREAS Messrs. Wheeler, Melick & Co. have recently re- 
** moved to this city, and formed a co-partnership for the purpose 
of manufacturing Horse Powers and Threshers, and leased of the 
subscriber a portion of his extensive manufactory for said purpose, 
and occupied the same, have of late pursued a course of advertising 
by styling themselves the proprietors of the “ Albany Agricultu¬ 
ral Works,” and “ manufacturers and dealers of Agricultural Im¬ 
plements generally ,” and otherwise, so as to have left the impression 
upon the public mind that they have either become the proprietors or 
manufacturers in connection with our establishment, or have suc¬ 
ceeded us in the name and business of the same, greatly to our inju¬ 
ry. This notice is, therefore* to inform our patrons and the public, 
that our interests are and ever have been distinct and separate .—and 
further, that their advertisements, bills, cards, &c., with our own, 
were laid before the Grand Jury of this county, by whom they were 
indicted; since which an injunction has been granted restraining them 
from the further use of .the name or other means by which they shall 
appear in any way connected with, or the proprietors of the said es¬ 
tablishment. HORACE L. EMERY.
