Umerv’s Hay Press. 
I N the August number of the Cultivator, appears an adver¬ 
tisement of a new firm, just formed, for an improved 
press, and alluding to my notice in a previous'No. of the Cul¬ 
tivator, in no very flattering manner, which requires an ex¬ 
planation from me. Some years since, Mr S. W. Bullock, 
New-York city, 208 Broadway, patented an upright pro¬ 
gressive lever press, and as a stationary and powerful ma¬ 
chine it lias no equal, and is in most general,use on the Hud- 
soil River. Subsequent to this, Mr. Dederick combined 
two of Mr. Bullock's levers in the same press, .and, as I learn, 
patented and introduced his improvement or new arrange¬ 
ment—not, however, without much difficulty and litigation 
with the owners of Bullock’s patent, and, as I learn from 
1h have already paid upwards of SlOOOdamages and costs 
for his infringements, and the public are cautioned, under 
date of 1852, by the owners of said patent, not to purchase of 
Dederick or his agents, except at their own risk, as they are 
determined to follow him up and to prosecute for every viola¬ 
tion of their rights.'' 
This is ail the patent Mr. Dederick can boast of, to my 
knowledge. As to the origin of a Horizontal press, it is well 
known to a great number here, that 1 designed a portable 
horizontal press, and long urged the said Dederick to take 
hold and get it up for me—offering every facility possible to 
aid him,—(he insisting it was impracticable). After nearly 
two years, he commenced and got up a model and a full 
sized press with our aid, and, as was supposed, for Emery A 
Co.’s exhibition at the State Fair in 1S52, when to their as¬ 
tonishment, the press was left unfinished, and lie enters the 
model at the fair as his own, and was awarded a compli¬ 
mentary medal, there being no premiums or competition for 
presses. Upon this' beginning, a few presses were made, 
only two of which were furnished to Emery A Co., which 
two, as well as the others made that season by Dederick, 
broke tmd failed, causing much expense and disappointment. 
Since then, Emery & Co. have made large numbers after 
the original plans, substituting iron tension braces in place of 
heavy timbers, and light braced followers, working easily, 
and stronger than as made before, giving uniform and full 
satisfaction. They are offered at the lowest paying prices, 
and warranted superior as a portable and powerful press to 
any others iii use. II. L. EMERY.

First Great Annual Sale 
Of Durham and Dairy Stock, in Westchester County , New- 
York. by JAMES M. MILLER, on the farm of JAMES 
BATHGATE , Esq., one mile from Fordham , and 14 
miles from ihe City Hall, New-York City, by the Harlem 
Railroad,, cars running hourly , will take place on the 
20th Day of September, 1853. 
H AVING been solicited by numerous Cattle-breeders, in 
my native County of Westchester, to get up a sale in 
which all may participate to any desired extent, whether 
wishing to sell one or more animals, and my old friend, 
James Bathgate, having kiiuliy consented to give the use of 
his capacious premises upon which to make the first experi¬ 
ment, 1 have made the above announcement, and now invite 
all persons having high-bred and grade Cattle for sale, either 
in this or adjoining states, to participate in the advantages of¬ 
fered. 
The name and full description of Animals intended for sale, 
with the owner’s name and residence, must be sent to my of¬ 
fice, No. SI MAIDEN LANE, New-York,’’ before the 12th 
of .September next, to be inserted in the, Catalogue, which 
will be ready for delivery on the 15th of September; and the 
Cattle must be on the ground, before 10 o’clock on the day of 
sale, or the evening previous, if possible, which will com¬ 
mence precisely at 12 o’clock, rain or shine. 
The charge for selling, including all charges for advertis¬ 
ing, Catalogue, Commission, Ac., will be Five Dollars per 
head, except when special bargains are made for calves or 
low priced animals. 
None but Cattle of well-known breeds of established cha- 
*raeter, will be received, and every animal offered must be 
sold without reserve. 
If ihe experiment is successfull, a sale will be held every 
j r ear, at some convenient point, making a GREAT FAIR 
for the farmer and improved stock breeder. 
To those who kiiow me, it is needless to say I have sold 
more blooded Cattle than any other man in America; and to 
others it is a sufficient guarantee that '.he proposed sale will 
be fairly and honorably conducted.
