THE UNDERSIGN ED, having been appointed agent tor the sale of the above churn, in this county, is now prepared to supply the farming community with the best article over made for converting milk into butter. The principle upon which this chum is constructed is a philo sophic one, and its great advantage over the common dasher or the barve! churn, will bo appa rent upon examination into the principle involved in tho execution of each kind of cburt). ,fn the old-fashior.ed churn, and all the SO CALLED IMPROVEMENTS upon it, butter is produced in a longer or shorter time, according to the quality of the cream or milk, SOLELY BY AGITATION of the contents of the chum while in the CONCAVE BEATER CHURN in addition to the mechanical action of the beater upon the milk, a constant supply of atmos phere air is forcibly carried through the cream or milk at every revolution, thus bringing into contact with every portion of the milk, ihe oxygen upon the chcmical combination of which, with it, the formation of butter depends. The following are believed to constitute the advantages of this Churn overall others in use. 1. That, although embodying a great philosophic principle, it is the most simple churn ever invented. 2. That it is the most convenient, useful, and substantial. 3. That the labor is infinitely less (ban with any other. 4. That it will never fail to make good butter. 5. That it will make butter from fresh milk in from 5 to 10 minutes. 6. That it will make butter from some milk in from 4 to 8 minutes. 7. That it will maso butter from any unskimmed milk in from 5 to 15 minutes. 8. That it will make butter from cream and milk prepared in the old way, in from 3 to 6 minutes, some less time. 9. That it will make more butter out of the same quantity of milk than any other churn or process. A host of testimonials from tho Kentucky and Missouri presses, in which, with other Stales, these churns aro superseding al! others, could.be adduced to show the value of the article, but this is considered unnecessary, as one trial cannot fail to convince those most wedded to the old, laborious, uncertain and vexatious mode of butter-making, of its vast superiority. Any infringement of the patent will be promptly prosecuted by the Patentee. For sale by Dubuque, July 25 1849. 47-3t. WOODWARD &.

The liberal and progressive political doctrines which prevailed in the Presidential canvass of 1848, cannot be mistaken they wiil be zeal ously supported iu this Journal. A liberal system of Internal Improvements, and the great interosts of Labor, Agriculture and Com merce demand, and will receive a large share of the Editor's attention. The '•Portrait Ga.1 lei'iy will be firmly, decidedly, and substan tially Whig it will address itself to the mass les in plain, straight-forward, unmistukable anguagc it will avoid all mystification, and will be worthy of the support of those who have imbibed tho progressive spirit of the age. It will not be subject to the control or dicta tion of any Clique and the mere fact of any public man or men acting with the Whig or any other party, will not prevent iiis or their public acts being discussed in it as they de serve. Extreme u/traisms will be studious/y avoided—the preservation of the L'NION being deemed of paramount importance, and of far greater moment than any question now agita ted by tli-puZitica/ parties of the day. With a view, a/so, to niaUe the paper an acceptab/e fami/y companion, cach number Will contain se/eetions from the most popu/ar Magazines, and the best American authors. In short, it w ill be conducted in the spirit of an cn/arged patriotism, which sha// acknow/edgc no/imits, but those of our own wide-spread Republic The "Portrait Ga//ery" will be printed on adoub/e medium sheet—Pricc, 00 per an nuin, to be paid during the year.
