loaf by hand, and who when, as boys,
thus toiling at the âquarin,âââ felt as
fatigued as well could be, the recollection
of which has since recalled the miserable
condition of the poor slaves of whom
Homer writes, who ground under such
a continual pressure of such weary toil:
Are there not those who remember when
flour could not be had separated from
the bran, at any flour mill in this Island ?
âAre there not some women yet alive who
remember how often their arms became
wearied in handling a heavy seive, when
sifting the flour? Are there not women
too who remember how from day to day,
for weeks in every year, they had to card
by hand, the weariness and toil of which
still lingers in their recollections ? Are
there not many who remember how the
doth was fulled at one time, to the great
annoyance of every tidy woman ? Are
there not those who remember the time
when there were no threshing machines,
and the slow process of the flail was the
only mode of separating the grain from
the straw? Are there not those who
well remember when there were no
shingle or lath mills, and when it was
almost impossible even to get cnough
Dourds sawed to covera house? To all
these queries we enswcrin the affirmative,
And what has reKeved our people from
these burdens? Was it not our friend
at the bar? How is it that we can now
âhear in any seetion of the country the
noise of the threshing machine? How is
it that we can have flour ground that
will compare with any imported? How
is it that we can have boards, shingles,
and laths of an excellent quality ? How
is it that we hear of such a factory as
Stanfieldâs, where they clean, card, spin,
full, press and dress cloth? The answer
âis, the introduction of machinery has
ddag this. . :
Ina word is it not to machinery that
the cidilized world is indebted for most
of the, numberless comforts which mark
the pidont contrast between man in A Ce
ilized and in an uncivilized condition F
Are we not indebted to machinery for
lessening the cost in the production of
almost every, if not all, of the articles in
daily use by every person in our land =
Does not machinery come in as an able,
willing and indispensible friend, to lend
his efficient aid in every department of
labor? Can we look to the right, or to
the left, behind or before, and tail to
perceive what the civilized world owes
to machinery? We might pursue the
subject for weeks, but deem it unneces-
sary. Shall such an uncalled for duty
continue to be forever placed upon our
statutes, as a barrier to the introduction
ofa power from which arises so many
of the indispensible aids to human com-
fort and industry ?
â Forbidit Pen; for thoucanâst conquer error,
Forbid it Pross, proved ally of the pen;
Forbid it Speech, t) at carries trath or error
To the hard bosom. of unthinking menâ
Pen ,Press and Speoechâcreators of opinion
--Combine, remove it, and thus fuliil thy
mission;
To remove't belongs unto thine kindred
mission.â
We hope and trust that the present
Legislature now convened will wipe out
this long borne burden on our country's
enterprise, and allow all machinery to
come in free of duty.
SEED WHEAT.
We would advise those farmers who
wish to raise a good crop of wheatâand
who does not ?ââto at once secure some
of that excellent Canada Szrep Wueat,
advertized in our paper, for sale at the
Stores of David Rogers and Lemuel
Vickerson, Esqs., and at the Mills of
Messrs. Jesse Wright & Son,in Bedeque.
We have it from these gentlemen, and
others who have t sted its quality, that
it is a superior seed, and is warranted to
be Spring Sced Wheat. We hear that
it kas been reported by some evil-disposed
party in the country that the Wheat on
sale by these gentlemen is not Spring
Secd Wheat. We contradict this false
accusation, on the word of Mr. Wright.
âThe wheat crop in this Island has for the
past few years been a great failure, while
at the same time it has been on the in-
crease in Canada. We do not pretend
to say exactly what the cause may have
been, but we doubt not that a good deal
of the failure is owing to the bad seed
sown. (Chunge the seed this year, and
see what results will tollow.
âââââ or
FIRE!
A fire broke out yesterday morning,
about 10 o'clock, in the house occupied
by Mr. George Harvey, on St. Stephen
Street. âThe Fire Company with the
Fire Engine were soon on the 8 ot. A
good supply of water, principally from
the river, was kept in the Engi. e, and
by the exertions of the Company and the
large number of people who had assem-
bled, the fire was confined to the one
house, and completely extinguished; not,
however, until the house in which it
jbroke out had been pretty well destroyed
inside. âI'he wind at the time was blow-
âing yery strong from the north, and the
house on fire being in the centre ofa
cluster of buildings, almost adjoining
Mr. Hibbetâs Hotel, it was thought at
first there would be a big fire; but thanks
âto a kind Providence and the noble exer-
tiens of the inhabitants, who worked
well, we have been saved such a dire
calamity. We must add that the Vire
Engine wasin good order. The origin
othe fire is not exactly known, but is
âsaid to have originated from a stove pipe.
We understand the house was insured.
A Dredging Machine.
Tur Hon. Mr. Huythorne said tn the
Legislative Council last session th t
«Dredging Machines are no doubt desir-
able to improve âour harbors, as well as
for the purpose of raising manure to en-
rich our fields.â We endorse this state-
ment, and would be glad to see the House
of Assembly voting asum which would
enable the Government to procure one for
the use of the Colony,
It has come at last. What has come?

Dr. Wistarâs Balsam of Wild Cherry.
Tn the whole history of medical discoveries
NO REMEDY has performed so many or such
remarkable cures of the numerousâ affections
of the throat, Lungs and Chest, us this long
tried and justly ceiebrated balsam. So ens
erally acknowledged is the superior excellen-
cy of this remedy, that but few of the many
who have tested its virtues by experience fail
to keep it handy as a speedy and certain cure
for sudden attacks of coldâfully believing
that its remedial powers are comprehensive
enough to embrace every form of disease,
from the slightest cold to the most dangerous
symptom of pulmonary complaint.
UNSOLICITED TESTIMONY,
From Rey. Francis Lonper, Pastor of the
South Congregational Church, Bridge-
port, Connecticut.
âT consider it a duty which I owe to suf-
fering humanity to bear testimimony to the
virtues of Dr. Wistarâs Balsam of Wild Cher-
ry. I haveused itâwhen I have had occasion
forany remedy for coughs, colds, or soie
throatâfor many years, and never ina single
instance has it failed to relieve and eure me.
L have frequently been yery hoarse on Satur-
day, and looked forward to the delivery of (wo
sermons on the following day with sad mis-
givings, but by a liberi use of the Balsam my
hoarseness has invariably been removed, and
[ have preached without difficulty.
IT commend it to my brethren im the minis-
try, and to public speakers generally, as a
certain remedy for the bronchial troubles to
which we are peculiarly exposed.

loaf by hand, and who when, as boys,
thus toiling at the âquarin,âââ felt as
fatigued as well could be, the recollection
of which has since recalled the miserable
condition of the poor slaves of whom
Homer writes, who ground under such
a continual pressure of such weary toil:
Are there not those who remember when
flour could not be had separated from
the bran, at any flour mill in this Island ?
âAre there not some women yet alive who
remember how often their arms became
wearied in handling a heavy seive, when
sifting the flour? Are there not women
too who remember how from day to day,
for weeks in every year, they had to card
by hand, the weariness and toil of which
still lingers in their recollections ? Are
there not many who remember how the
doth was fulled at one time, to the great
annoyance of every tidy woman ? Are
there not those who remember the time
when there were no threshing machines,
and the slow process of the flail was the
only mode of separating the grain from
the straw? Are there not those who
well remember when there were no
shingle or lath mills, and when it was
almost impossible even to get cnough
Dourds sawed to covera house? To all
these queries we enswcrin the affirmative,
And what has reKeved our people from
these burdens? Was it not our friend
at the bar? How is it that we can now
âhear in any seetion of the country the
noise of the threshing machine? How is
it that we can have flour ground that
will compare with any imported? How
is it that we can have boards, shingles,
and laths of an excellent quality ? How
is it that we hear of such a factory as
Stanfieldâs, where they clean, card, spin,
full, press and dress cloth? The answer
âis, the introduction of machinery has
ddag this. . :
Ina word is it not to machinery that
the cidilized world is indebted for most
of the, numberless comforts which mark
the pidont contrast between man in A Ce
ilized and in an uncivilized condition F
Are we not indebted to machinery for
lessening the cost in the production of
almost every, if not all, of the articles in
daily use by every person in our land =
Does not machinery come in as an able,
willing and indispensible friend, to lend
his efficient aid in every department of
labor? Can we look to the right, or to
the left, behind or before, and tail to
perceive what the civilized world owes
to machinery? We might pursue the
subject for weeks, but deem it unneces-
sary. Shall such an uncalled for duty
continue to be forever placed upon our
statutes, as a barrier to the introduction
ofa power from which arises so many
of the indispensible aids to human com-
fort and industry ?
â Forbidit Pen; for thoucanâst conquer error,
Forbid it Pross, proved ally of the pen;
Forbid it Speech, t) at carries trath or error
To the hard bosom. of unthinking menâ
Pen ,Press and Speoechâcreators of opinion
--Combine, remove it, and thus fuliil thy
mission;
To remove't belongs unto thine kindred
mission.â
We hope and trust that the present
Legislature now convened will wipe out
this long borne burden on our country's
enterprise, and allow all machinery to
come in free of duty.
SEED WHEAT.
We would advise those farmers who
wish to raise a good crop of wheatâand
who does not ?ââto at once secure some
of that excellent Canada Szrep Wueat,
advertized in our paper, for sale at the
Stores of David Rogers and Lemuel
Vickerson, Esqs., and at the Mills of
Messrs. Jesse Wright & Son,in Bedeque.
We have it from these gentlemen, and
others who have t sted its quality, that
it is a superior seed, and is warranted to
be Spring Sced Wheat. We hear that
it kas been reported by some evil-disposed
party in the country that the Wheat on
sale by these gentlemen is not Spring
Secd Wheat. We contradict this false
accusation, on the word of Mr. Wright.
âThe wheat crop in this Island has for the
past few years been a great failure, while
at the same time it has been on the in-
crease in Canada. We do not pretend
to say exactly what the cause may have
been, but we doubt not that a good deal
of the failure is owing to the bad seed
sown. (Chunge the seed this year, and
see what results will tollow.

FIRE!
A fire broke out yesterday morning,
about 10 o'clock, in the house occupied
by Mr. George Harvey, on St. Stephen
Street. âThe Fire Company with the
Fire Engine were soon on the 8 ot. A
good supply of water, principally from
the river, was kept in the Engi. e, and
by the exertions of the Company and the
large number of people who had assem-
bled, the fire was confined to the one
house, and completely extinguished; not,
however, until the house in which it
jbroke out had been pretty well destroyed
inside. âI'he wind at the time was blow-
âing yery strong from the north, and the
house on fire being in the centre ofa
cluster of buildings, almost adjoining
Mr. Hibbetâs Hotel, it was thought at
first there would be a big fire; but thanks
âto a kind Providence and the noble exer-
tiens of the inhabitants, who worked
well, we have been saved such a dire
calamity. We must add that the Vire
Engine wasin good order. The origin
othe fire is not exactly known, but is
âsaid to have originated from a stove pipe.
We understand the house was insured.
A Dredging Machine.
Tur Hon. Mr. Huythorne said tn the
Legislative Council last session th t
«Dredging Machines are no doubt desir-
able to improve âour harbors, as well as
for the purpose of raising manure to en-
rich our fields.â We endorse this state-
ment, and would be glad to see the House
of Assembly voting asum which would
enable the Government to procure one for
the use of the Colony,

NO REMEDY has performed so many or such
remarkable cures of the numerousâ affections
of the throat, Lungs and Chest, us this long
tried and justly ceiebrated balsam. So ens
erally acknowledged is the superior excellen-
cy of this remedy, that but few of the many
who have tested its virtues by experience fail
to keep it handy as a speedy and certain cure
for sudden attacks of coldâfully believing
that its remedial powers are comprehensive
enough to embrace every form of disease,

âT consider it a duty which I owe to suf-

forany remedy for coughs, colds, or soie

instance has it failed to relieve and eure me.
L have frequently been yery hoarse on Satur-
day, and looked forward to the delivery of (wo
