DISSOLVED BONES, OR SUPERPHOSPHATE OF LIME. 30 Tons are Now Landing ex * Mary Shepherd,' from one of the best Scotch manufactures, contain* ing, by Dr. Andersons (F.B.iS.} analysis, 29 10 per cent, aoluable phosphates, with 14 per cent, of ammonia. The value of this Manure for creating a rapid growth, and being obnoxious to the insect world, ia too well known to require remark. MALDEN ISLAND GUANO. dO Tons, ex 'Hercules, 9 a direct importation, best known as Phospho-Guano ; is said to hare been used with, much success in the other colonies. A copy of an article setting forth at length its virtues, from the local journals, can be obtained on application. It likewise, from its large per-centage of soluble phosphates, appears to warrant the conclusion that it is most valuable. BOLIVIAN GUANO Has been found to answer remarkably. A cargo is shortly expected per ' Waverley.' BONEDUST, From long and successful use, has justly earned the first place in the farmer's mind. It is the ambition" of the undersigned to furnish them with a genuine, unadulterated article, and at the lowest rate possible. Fifty tons are landing ex 'Kate,' of their usual quality, guaraateed free from foreign substances. W. J. HURST & CO., Queen-street, Opposite T. and S.

GfcOVEK&BAKEB SEWING MACHINE COMPANY, MANUFACTURERS OF ELASTIC STITCH AND "LOCK STITCH" SEWING MACHINES. THE GROVER & BAKER ELASTIC-STITCH MAC BINES will hem, fell, cord, bind, tuck, gather, quilt, braid, and embroider. They are simple, durable, and not liable to derangement. They sew from ordinary reels, and no re-winding of_ the thread is necessary. They sew with equal facility all fabrics, the most delicate and the heaviest, and with all kinds of thread, silk, cotton, or linen ; their seam is so strong and elastic that it never breaks even on the bias. They fasten both ends of the seam by their own operation. Their seam, though cut at every sixth stitch, remains firm, and neither runs nor ravels in wear. Their seam is plump and beautiful, and retains its plumpness and beauty after washing better than any other. Their seam can be removed in altering garments, after proper instruc tion, without picking or cutting them. Watching and varying the tensions upon the threads, necessary in other machines, is unnecessary in these. The tensions being once adjusted on the Grover and Baker elastic-stitch machine, any amount of sewing may be done without change. They make beautiful embroidery, and are the only machines that both embroider and sew perfectly.

THE GROVER & BAKER SHUTTLE OR LOCK-STITCH MACHINES, Which are comparatively new, combine the good points of former shuttle machines with most important improvements, making them the most simple, perfect, efficient, and durable shuttle or "lock-stitch' machines yet introduced. Hence the universal favour and success of the machines wherever known. For all descriptions of cloth or leather work they have no equal.

THE HIGHEST PREMIUMS Over all competitors, both for machines and machine work, were taken by the Grover and Baker Sewing* ■. machine Company in 1863 and 1864, at thirty-one State and county exhibitions in America, where all the (ther leading machines were placed n competition. UPW KRDS OF 100,000 Of these machines ore in use in ail parti of the world. MESSRS. WINKS & HALL, At celind, Agents.
