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 life offers to the public 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 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 such, or even a greater numler of students. In addition to this, the frequent travel through Chapel Hill gives the Hotel, (being tlie 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 nish it.

Young's Improved Patent Smut and Screening Ma chine. The only Machino of the kind that has stood the test and given satisfaction to the public. It has supplanted every Smut Maclune yet offered in the State, more or less of which have been taken uown to make room for it. The public need fear no im position, as there aro 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 have never been out of order one day. There was awarded to it tlie Premium of the Ma ryland State Fair, and a Premium with a silver me dal, at the Fair of the Maryland Institute, at Balti more, last Fall.
