^MANUFACTURER * 
or 
PITTS’ PATENT SEPARATOR 
AND 
DOUBLE PINSON HORSE POWER. 
O WING to the increased demand, and being desirous of 
locating at a convenient point for shipping, I have re¬ 
moved to Buffalo, N. Y., and have erected a large establish¬ 
ment for the purpose of manufacturing the above celebrat¬ 
ed Machines, for threshing and cleaning grain at one ope¬ 
ration. 
This is the same Machine that'has stood, and now stands, 
unsurpassed by any Machine in existence for the above pur¬ 
pose. It has been exhibited at nearly all the State and 
County Agricultural Fairs throughout the United Slates, and 
always received th e first premium. 
The Machine has recently been much improved, enlarg¬ 
ed, and rendered more substantial in all its parts. I there¬ 
fore offer it to Farmers of the different wheat growing dis¬ 
tricts, to be all I claim for it, viz. the best Machine for 
threshing and cleaning grain, how in existence. 
I also .manufacture Pitt's Improved Endless Chain Two 
Horse Power and Separator—also Pitt’s Cora and Cob Mill, for grinding feed for stock. 
My Horse Powers and Separators are all warranted to be a better article than can be purchased at any other shop—and if they do 
not, on trial, prove to be so, I will take them off the hands of the purchasers al the price they may pay me for them. 
P. S.—The Patent Right on the Separator has recently been extended for a further term of seven years, and all infringements on 
said right will be dealt with according to law. JOHN A. PITTS.

From the New-York Tribune. 
“The Water Cure Journal holds a high rank in the science of 
health; always ready, straight-forward, and plain spoken, it unfolds 
the law of our physical nature, without any pretensions to the tech- 
idealities of science, but in a form as attractive and refreshing as the 
sparkling element of which it treats.” 
From the Fountain Journal. 
“ Every man, woman, and child, who- loves health, who desires 
happiness, its direct result, who wants to ‘live while it does live,’ 
‘ live till he dies,’ and really live, instead of being a mere walking 
corpse, should become at once a reader of this Journal, and practice 
its precepts..” 
From the New-York Evening Post.

pular Health Journal in the world.”

Valuable Virginia Land for Sale. 
I OFFER for sale between 700 and 800 acre*? of land, handsomely 
located in Prince George comity, Va., lying immediately on Chip 
Oaks Creek, adjoining Lower Brandon plantation on the south, 25 
miles from Petersburg. About 200 acres are cleared, and the balance 
tolerably well timbered with oak and pine. The cleared land was 
marled several years ago, and 1.000 bushels of marl, with 1,500 bush¬ 
els of lime have been recently applied to it. 
The improvements are a good brick house, with five rooms—from 
which there is a beautiful prospect of James River—a kitchen, smoke¬ 
house, stable, a barn with stationary horse power attached, and a 
well of good water. The buildings are within 300 yards of the main 
landing where vessels load with produce, wood, &c., and unload 
lime at seven cents per bushel Marl abounds on the opposite side 
of the creek. The whole tract is well watered by springs and brooks, 
that run through fine meadow lands, a part of which are cleared. 
I will sell it entire or in parcels to suit purchasers, as it can be ad¬ 
vantageously divided into four farms. If not sold privately, (of which 
due notice wiil bo given.) before the 30th day of September next, I 
will sell it upon the premises, on that day, at public auction, without 
reserve. 
Persons wishing to view the property, will leave the Richmond 
and Norfolk boat at Lower Brandon wharf on James river, three 
miles from the property; or I will give any informaiion to those ad¬ 
dressing me (post-paid) at Cabin Point P. O., Surrey county, Va.

Great Sale of Superior thorough-bred Short-Horn Cattle. 
T HE subscriber will offer for sale, his entire herd of choice Short¬ 
horns, comprising 50 head, young and old, at public Auction, on 
Wednesday the 13lh of October, 1852, at 1 o’clock. P. M-, at his 
farm 2£ miles from the city of Troy; reserving Jo himself one bid on 
five Cows and Heifers and one Bull, say six head in all, and these to 
be pointed out previous to the commencement of the sale ; this bid 
will be made public when the six animals are brought to the stand 
for sale. Should any gentlemen advance on the single bid made by 
the proprietor, the highest bidder will be entitled to the animal. It is 
proper to say. the severe drouth in this vicinity reducing the hay crop 
one half, has decided the proprietor to make this sale at the time 
named, instead of next Juhe, which he had purposed to do. 
The "well established reputation of this herd in this Union, and in 
Canada, and the splended herd it has measurably sprung from, viz: 
the famed herd of that eminently English breeder the late Thomas 
Bates, Esq , renders it hardly necessary to comment upon its superior 
merits. It may not, however, be inappropriate to remark, that the 
establishment of this herd was commenced in 1838, and that the most 
careful attention has since been paid to its breeding, and that it now 
contains mostly all the reserved stock of two former public sales. 
And besides these he has now on the passage across the Atlantic, 
shipped 21st June, on board the Packet Ship Kossuth, Capt. Jas. B. 
Bell, a superior yearling roan Bull, having many crosses of the famed 
Duchess Bulls of Mr. Bates. Including this latter animal and the two 
beautiful red roan three year old Heifers, which came out from Eng¬ 
land last September, “ Yarm Lass” and •* Yorkshire Countess,” and 
the beautiful Heifer Calf of the latter animal, got in England by the 
Duchess Bull 5th Duke of York, there will be 14 head of this import¬ 
ed stock, and its immediate descendants. There has been sold from 
this herd but three Heifers from these importations, and these cows 
were sold at $300 each. All the young bulls bred from these cows, 
except those now offered for sale, have also been sold at private sale, 
at $300 each, most of them while quite young. 
Besides these 14 head of high bred animals, the noble premium 
cow Esterville 3d, bred by E. P. Prentice, Esq., of Albany, and the 
equally fine two year old, red and white Heifer bred by me, got by 
the Bates Bull Meteor, and three of the famed milking Willey tribe, 
the same tribe of cows as the Heifer Ruby, sold by me to Mr. S. P. 
Chapman of Madison county, and which cow was awarded the first 
premium by the N. Y. Slate Agricultural Society, for producing the 
largest quantity of butter in 10 days in June, and 10 days in August, 
on grass pasture only, being a fraction over 40 lbs. in those 20 days. 
There are other valuable tribes in the herd, as the printed Catalogue 
will show. 
The catalogue will be ready for distribution about the 1st of Au¬ 
gust, and will exhibit richness of pedigree rarely to be met with, 
showing the descent of most of the animals, from the best animals 
on record in the English herd book. Having received an iiv itatiou 
from H. Strafford last winter to forward a list of the pedigrees of my 
herd to be inserted in the forthcoming volumes of the English herd 
book, of which Mr. Strafford is now the editor, several pedigrees 
were sent to him of the animals here offered for sale, and will appear 
in, said book. 
A credit of 9 months will be given on all sums up to $300, and 9 
and 18 months on all sums ever $300, for approved paper, with in¬ 
terest, payable at some bank in this State. GEO. VAIL.
