This machine performs its work very perfectly, and with sufficient rapidity. Tho horse power being perfectW simple in principle and conslruclion, and evidently of great strength and durability; is apparently not liable to the too common objection of getting out of order, and requiring repairs, and the fact that the whole is so easily transported, (requiring but little more room than for a horse to stand upon,) and that one horse performs the labor with much apparent case, must command the admiration of every person who seos its operation. W e can, therefore, c o n fidently say that, in our opin ion, Messrs. Coit and Fuller’s Machine and Horse Power is decidedly the best now in use, and deserves the attention and patronage o f the grain growing nicrs of our county, Jan. 12, 1835.

Mourn the Muse, whose strains once breathing All the soul of woman’s love; Joyous chords, with gems unwrealhing, Garlands her own hands had wove: Songs that waked iho chiefs to glory, E ’er the battle’s din was o’er; Songs of sweet, domestic story. Ye, alas! aro heard no more. Hearts, in apathetic slumbers, By her gentle, matchless mind She awakened with her numbers. And the soul of sense refined. Fame has spread her songs of gladness, Echoed from tho princely dome, While her simple lays of sadness Bless the lowly cottage iiome. Onco her trembling chords revealing Deepest thoughts in mournful shade. Vain a breaking heart concealing Hopes that promised, hero betrayed ; Hopes she had in spring limo cherished— Tho bruised reed—the flower crush’d— A delusive ivrcck—had perished. Ere her voice and lyre were hush’d. Mourn her loved and honored name, Which Genius to the world hath given : Her soul, beyond the breath of fame, Shall find iulicity in heaven. Her song of sorrow now hath ceased,— Mute her lyre, and cold the hand ; Her broken spirit God appeased. And called her to the better land. M R S . H EM A N S ’ LA S T POEM.
