IAGLE HOTEL, CHAPEL HILL, N. C The
j Proprietress of this well known and profitable
establishment, having realized a sufficient income
to warrant her in resuming the quiet of private hfe
offers to the publie generally the opportunity of
bidding for its advantages.
The citizens of the State are so well acquainted
with the advantages of its position, that but few re
marks are necessary, to complete their information.
The Hotel, itself, possesses all the requirements 1
of room and comfort which its purchasers can de
sire. It has capacity for the accommodation of one
hundred and fifty boarders, and the recent and rap
id growth of the University, adjacent, makes it an
easy matter to possess constantly tuck or even a
greater number of students.
In addition to this, the frequent travel through
Chapel Hill gives he Hotel, (being the only one in
the place) a transient custom equal to any in the
State.
The lots and stables adjoining are extensive and
commodious and the country-market supplies abun
dantly and on profitable terms much of its provi
sions. The terms of sale require one third of the price
to be paid on taking possession. A note with safe
security and time of payment suited to the conven
ience of the purchaser, are the reasonable demands
for the remainder.
If further information be desired concerning the
inducements to purchase, the President of the Uni
versity or any other resident of the village, will fur

ble article, .
Young' t Improved Patent Smut and Screening Ma
chine. The only Machine of the kind that has stood the
test and given satisfaction to the public. It has
supplanted evexy Smnt Machine yet offered in the
State, more or less of which have been taken down
to make room for it The public need foor no im
position, as there are now some 280 Machines run
ning in North Carolina ; and I wish to offer no other
references than the gentlemen who are using them,
whose expectations have been more than realized in
their performance. It not only thoroughly cleanses
the Wheat of Smut, but also purifies it of all other
substances, almost to perfection. It takes up but 4
feet square in the mill and requires but little pow
er. It is warranted for five years against breaking
or wearing out and also to retain its cleansing qual
ities for that time.
There are a number -of these Machines through
which 100,000 bushels of Wheat have been cleansed
and they hare never been out of order one day.
There was awarded to it the Premium of the Ma

dal, at the Fair of the Maryland Institute, at Balti
