The Husketh Heirs.
VBOUT thirty-five years ago, Nathaniel Husk
eth, (a one armed man) removed from the
county of Granville, North Carolina, to the county
of Logan, Kentucky, where he died, leaving only
one child, whos name was Isham Husketh. Isham
afterwards became a Lunatic, and died in the Asy
lum at Lexington. Kentucky, leaving an estate of
about $5000, which passed from the hands of his
Committee into the hands of his Administrator
Isham left no heirs nearer than first cousins. At
the instance of some of said heirs in North Caroli
na and Tennessee, as an attorney, I instituted suit
and obtained a decree in the Circuit Court for
Simpson county, to distribute the esute. . Some of
the heirs have received their portions. The fol
lowing persons, who are proven to be heirs, have
not applied for their portions, viz: Lewis H.
Kittle, Isham M. Kittle. Prudence II. Kittle, Nan

Thomas Husketh. Nbw, unless the above named
persons shall apply for their respective portions,
on or before the first of September next, their por
tions wdl be decreed to the other heirs who have
applied Tor and received their portions.
Any of the above persons applying for their por

FOR SALE!
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 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.
Possession can be obtained at any time, after the
1st of May. Apply to

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
