CiTixr.xs or thk Usio,Vou have done me
the honour as with one vo'n'e, from one end

my Ointment with your approbation. It is scarce

of a Letter from Mr. J. W. Lanolev. of'
lunUciUf, Vadkin County, Xurth Carolina,
L . dated Xiirtmber 1st. 1853.
READ HIS OWN WORDS.
To Professor Hollowat,
Sir : It is not my wish to become notorious,
nether is this letter written for the mere sake of
writing, but to say, that your Ointment cured me
of one of the most dreadful cutaneous diseases
that flesh is heir to, and which was considered by
all who knew me, to be entirely beyond the reach
of medicine. For nine years 1 was inflicted with
one of the most painful and troublesome sore legs
that ever fell to the lot of man ; and after trying
every medicine I had ever heard of, I resigned in
despair all hope of being cured ; but a friend
brought me a couple of large pots of your Oint
ment, which caused the sores on my legs to heal,
and I entirely regained my health to my agreeable
surprise and delight, and to the astonishment of
my friends. (Signed) W. J. LANG LEY.
AN EXTRAORDINARY CURE OF A BAD
BREAST, WHEN NEARLY AT THE
POINT OF DEATH.
Copy of a Letter from Mr. Durant, Ktv Or
leans, November 9th, 1853.
To Professor Holloway, 38, Corner of Ann and
Nassau Streets, New York.
Dear Sir, It is with heartfelt gratitude I have
to inform you that by the use of your Ointment
and Pills, the life of my wife has been saved. For
seven years she had a bad breast, with ten run
ning wounds, (not of a cancerous nature. ) I was
told that nothing could Bare her: she was then in
duced to use your Ointment and Pills, when in
the short space of three mouths, they effected a
perfect cure, to the astonishment of all who knew
ua. We obtained your Medicines from Messrs.
Wright & Co., of Chartres-street, New Orleans.
1 send this from "Hotel des Princes," Paris, al
though I had written it at New Orleans, before
we finally left, at that time, not knowing your ad
dress at New York.
(Signed) R. DURANT.

ment in most of the following cases :

SINGER'S SEWING MACHINES,
T are the only Sewine Machines of any
yy utility which cm bo used without making
the owner liable to a suit for infringement of pat
ented pirvilers. are still sold fit,
REASONABLE PRICES,
AND WITH
UNQUESTIONED RIGHT.
Having termincd jour legal controversy with
Elias Howe, Jr.. and procured his full licene to
use his invention, there is not the slighest claim
th.it our machines infringe any other patent.
The right to use the machines which we have
sold, and shall hereafter sell, is unquestionable.
V e own ten distinct prtent of Sewing Machines,
covering all the nice points of the invention, and
all the machines of other manufacturers infringe
one or more of them. Our patent securing the
spring whereby the cloth, kc, is held to the feed
ing apparatus by a yielding presure, is infringed
by all the machines now offered in the market
Those who buy the inferior and practical machines,
are hereby distinctly apprised that we shall com
pel them to pay us for the privilege of using them.
Our legal rights will henceforth be rigidly enfor
ced. THE IMMENSE SUPERIORITY
of Singer's Sewing Machines has been completely
established They are of universal app i ;ntion
the same machine doing all kinds of work, and
doing it perfectly. They are not only superior in
contrivance, but unequaled in mechanical finish.
They perform all work required and continue to
do it with ut getting out of order. We desire to
call attention particularly to our new.
MACHINES TO SEW WITH A SINGLE THREAD
which by ample trials have been proved superior
to all others for,stitching linen and all very thin
fabrics also for sewing leather either with a
waxed thread or silk and for quilting linings.
We are also prepared to exhibit and sell embroid
ering machines, producing an entirely new and
very beautiful result. Machines of extra size,
both shuttle and single thread, may be had for a
small difference in price. These are found to be
very popular. Machines for hat-binding, stitch
ing carpet-bag handles, and any other peculiar
work, will be supplied at short notice.

"VOT t public, but at private sale, if early ap
plication be made to me at Raleigh or upon
the premises, the most beautiful and undoubtedly
healthy Cottage Farm in Wake county; with great
capabilities for profit. It is within two and a half
miles of the city of Raleigh, immediately in the
fork of the Chapel Hill and Hillsboro' roads and
within one hunlred and fifty yards of the Central
Rail Road ; combining every thing to reader it a
most charming family residence. The tract con
tains 131 acres of good, arable land, about 100 of
which is in the original forest the residue has
been cleared within the lasi three years, liberally
manured, handsomely and strongly enclosed and
put in a high state of cultivation. The Dwelling
House is a strong two story, well built and tastely
finished building, in modern styles it has six 18
feet square rooms, each with a tire place besides
spacious airy Halls above aud below stairs, Porti
co and every other convenience that heart cau de
sire. The out houses are numerous and well built
and of every kind a well improved farm can require.
There ia a spacious Store House, and a Black
smith shop upon the premises, where I have car
ried on a very extensive business for the last twelve
months with great success, and can, therefore,
pronounce it one of the best stands for a country
store within my knowledge. The range for Cat
tle, Hogs and Sheep is very fine, and there is an
abundance of fire wood and rail timber, and clay
for brick making, upon the land. There is a most
excellent well of water at the House and also
one at the Store, and three everlasting springs up
on the premises.
This property being upon the great thorough
fare of Western trade and travel, au' of pleasure
rides frpm the city, and the landscape charming, the
inmates never find it lonely, but are ever gladden
ed by the moviug panorama of busy life . I have
a larger body of land farther from the city, which
my interests require me to improve and occupy ;
therefore I will sell this property cheap and on
easy terms. This is a rare chance for any person
wishing a handsome, healthy, cheap and profita
ble family residence, all new and in good order
for immediate enjoyment. The schools in the city
are convenient, being only a few minutes ride or
walk. This property would eminently suit a pub
lic officer, or a Physician desiring a good country
nructice. or a Merchant, wishing to be in the city
every day, while adding to his thrift by avocations
at home. To any person willing to keep a pn
vate boarding house, carry on the mercantile busi
ness, make Brick for market, with or without a
well managed maiket gardeu and dairy, for the
supply of the city, added to his farming opera
tions, this property would aasuredly lead to for
tune. Now's the day and now" the hour to
strike for the prixe.

STATE AGRICULTURAL FAIR.
AT RALEIGH, OCTOBER, 1854.
TO my friends and patrons, who intend visiting
Raleigh in October, to attend the Fair, and
to buy their supply of Winter Garments:
The Clothing Trade at the present time is at
tracting considerable attention in the Mercantile
World, and every year more capital is being em
ployed ; and when we consider the amount of Clo
thing manufactured, we cannot but be surprised to
know that so few manufacturers pay particular
attention to getting up their Stock in good taste,
and having their goods well made.
We believe from our experience in business that
too much care and attention oaanot be given to the
manufacturing of Clothing ; consequently we pay
the best prices for all kinds of work done; and af
ter having under daily training for years certain
hands, it is but reasonable to suppose that we can
offer for sale the best made Clothing in the State.
We shall have, therefore, on exhibition, during
Fair week, at onr Store, the most beautitul Stock
of Ready-made Clothing in the State Scott 4
