Thc 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 requircments
of room and comfort, which its purchasers can de
sire. It has capacity for the accommodation of one
hundred ami fifty lxarders. aud the recent and rap
id growth of the University, adjacent, makes it an
easy matter to possess constantly such or even a
greater number of students.
In addition to this, the frequent travel through
Chapel Hill gives the Hotel, (being the only one in
the pluccj a transient cu&toni equal to any in thc
State.
Thc 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 terras of sale require one third of the price
to be paid on taking possession. A note with safe
security- mid time of rmvmcnt suiten to thc conven

THE Undersigned would respectfully inform those
engaged in the Milling business in North Caro

supply at the shortest notice, that almost invalua
ble article,
Young' Improved Patent Smut an1 Screwing Ma
chine. The only Machine of the kind that has stood the
test and given satisfaction to the public. It has
supplanted every Smut Machine yet offered in the
State, more or less of which have been taken down
to make room for it. The public need fear no im
position, as there are now some 280 Machines run
ning in North Carolina ; and I wish to offer no other
references than thc 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 np 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 thut time.
There are a number of these Machines through
which 100,000 bushels of Wheat have been cleansed
and they have never been out of order one day.
There was awarded to it the Premium of the Ma
ryland State Fair, and a Premium with a silver me
dal, at the Fair of the Maryland Institute, at Balti

this organization is to afford a system of Insurance
which shall operate for the mutual benefit of all its
members.
The peculiar advantage arising from this mods
of Insurance, is that the assured pay no more than
the actual losses and expenses of the Company, and
experience has proved the safety of Mutual Insur
ance Companies as well as the great saving to its
members ; and 110 stronger argument can be pro
duced in their favor,; than the Confidence which they
receive from the entire community, where such
