The Express brought official accounts of some successes of General Noll’s army in Candahar. The Qhilziea, GOOD strong, attempted to storm the tort ot Kliclati-Ghilzics on tho morning of the 21st May, but were gallantly repulsed, alter mi hours hard fighting, l»y thcsmall garrison of 1000 men, leaving upwards of 100 dead on the Held, besides carrying oil* many severely wounded, without the loss of a man on our side. On the ; 29th ot May, 7.000 AH'gans, under Softer Jung, | came towards Candahar, with the intention of at- 1 tacking it, and when they wero about lour miles 1 off, a party went out and drove them away, kill- Inw about 200. 1 he accounts state that the follower* of Suftur Jung have dispersed, and that chief is now in our bands.

Fr.ail tlio Southern PJunt.T. VIRGINIA REAPER. Rig I.ick, Roanoke, July 13, 1S42. Messrs Kditors—1 have been surprised that tlm “Virginia Reaper,” invented by Cyrus 11. Mc- Cormick, of Kuckhridom. has not received some notice in our agricultural papers. 1 am satisfied tlu»t it is one of the most important ii.ipU-meotH which has been presented to the agriculturist for many years. 1 understand it has been patented since 181-1, but the patentee, with a most com- mendable putt, nee ami prudence, determined not to hazard the reputation ot his invention by supplying the public demand, till bo bad scrutini- zed, tested, arid perfected it by several years of private experience. After eight or nine years of care In] observation, lie again appears before tho public, prepared to guarantee with confidence the performance ol his rcapt r. 1 and others embraced the first opportunity ol supplying ourselves, and have used them as far as was practicable in our late wheat harvest. No far as 1 have any knowl- edge ol tac opinions ol those who purchased them, or of those who leave witnessed their per- formance, there is an unanimous concurrence in the belief that the machine in fully equal to every tiling said ot it in its advertisement. I Itavo tested it satisfactorily in every grade and condition of wheat; in that which was verv light, as well as that which would have yielded, hut for the ru6t, from thirty to forty bus'll* Is per aero; in that which was ortict and in that which was tangled and fallen, ami tuur.d it to operate, in every instance, with surprising neatness r.nd t lli- cicncy, scarcely leaving a head, and but slighliv influenced in tho number of acres cut in a given timo by the condition 0f the grain. It was found to cut tangled and fallen grain w here ever it was not too fl.it to bo reached by the sickle as w ell as tout which was standing. The neatness and com- pleteness with which the crop is saved is scarcely conceivable to one who has not witnessed its work. Those most wedded to tho cradle, admit that the reaper wiil save on an average at least one bushel more to tho acre in stanuing w heat than the best cradling, whilst in tangled grain the saving would be augmented to double, treble, or even quadruple that amount. No that tho ma- chine, which costs only an hundred dollars, will pay for itself in cutting an ordinary crop. The machine too is simple and substantial; of course, not liable to get out of order, and when trom casually deranged or broken, easily rectified or repaired by an ordinary mechanic. Jt w ill cut with facility fifteen acres perday, and when push- ed, at least twenty. Two bands attend it with ease as rider and raker, relieving each other reg- ularly, and fivo or six will hind tho grain with morn ease than they would bind tho same quanti- fy grain alter cradlers and rakers, as tho ma- chine leaves it straight and in piles large enough lor several sheaves. It is fully equal to five choice cradlers, who would require five rakers and live binders to follow them, making fifteen in ail. Thus, you see there is a saving of the labor of eight hands in every day’s cutting of tin- reaper. It performs equally well on rolling and undulating as level land, and by taking steep hills obliquely, so as to graduate the ascent, the difficulty with them will be in a great degree obviated, I ...... ,i.:. ...i... _. » »« J-~ ..•'Viurin VI oil. ill \/Or* nm k in Hie Enquirer of October or November, 1841 .for a minute and satisfactory description ot the machine, and would suggest the propriety ot your appending it as a note' "to this letter, for the satisfaction of your readers. I will merely add, in closing this communication, the testimony ot a lowland farmer, who has had three of the ma- chines in operation this summer. Mr. ('oroin Braxton, in a transcript with which 1 1,ave been provided, says, “I have had three ot Mr. < ’. II. M’Cormiek’s Patent Reapers at work tins harvest under my immediate observation; one on the farm on which I reside, and two others on farms under my management, and lake pleasure m stating, that the operation of all lias been ful- ly equal to my expectation ; and indeed rather exceeded it, as indeed that of all others who wit- ncssed the operation of the machine. Mr. Mc- Cormick’s advertisement is fully sustained. It will certainly cut from fifteen to twenty acres per day, it well attended to, and leaves not a straw that can he brought in contact with the cutter. It lias been worked this harvest under every disad- vantage which it was possible almost to bring to hear against it, inconsequence of the unpreceden- ted weather wo have had. It will cut any wheat tli,it is not too low for the reel and teeth to reach it. It does not appear to me to he a3 liable to get out ot order ns a common cradle, and I should think it would be very durable. The Reaper has cut all descriptions of wheat, green, ripe, rusted as badly as wheat could have it, lying and stand* ing. And I have no hesitation in saying, that I believe it one of the most important agricultural improvements oftlicd;>y,and think that e very farm- er cutting fifty acres of wheal would find it to his advantage to have one. No weather has prevented the Reaper from working, except when the ground was so soli as to mire the wheels. -Signed, COR BIN BRAXTON. t -liericoke, June 23, 1842.

If well alien. ; 1 wed, it would cut, 1 think, from fifteen to twenty j acres per day.

The Express brought official accounts of some successes of General Noll’s army in Candahar. The Qhilziea, GOOD strong, attempted to storm the tort ot Kliclati-Ghilzics on tho morning of the 21st May, but were gallantly repulsed, alter mi hours hard fighting, l»y thcsmall garrison of 1000 men, leaving upwards of 100 dead on the Held, besides carrying oil* many severely wounded, without the loss of a man on our side. On the ; 29th ot May, 7.000 AH'gans, under Softer Jung, | came towards Candahar, with the intention of at- 1

tacking it, and when they wero about lour miles 1

off, a party went out and drove them away, kill- Inw about 200.

1 he accounts state that the follower* of Suftur Jung have dispersed, and that chief is now in our bands.

China.—[From the Bombay Correspondence | cf the London Morning l’ost.j Tho intelligence ;

from China, ■which comes down to the 2?th of !

May, Is Wholly unimportant.—Several of the transports, with reinforcements, have arrived at Hong Kong, the remainder were » xpreted to reach in a few days afterwards, when Sir Henry Pot- tinger would proceed to the northward, and, as it IS supposod, advance at once to Pekin. It was

■^currently reported that the Emperor, alarmed at ^.♦Jbe preparations which the English were making'

to attack him, hud given his subjects a paternal exhortation to resist the barbarians to the utmost, j and retired into Tartary. 11 is departure from I Pekin, before wo reach it. though highly probable, will bo unfortunate. 11* tie should have removed 1

himself and his family beyond the great wall, ; with whom are we to conclude » treaty ? The ! new settlement at I long Kong was rapidly pro-! Sressing. Tho intelligence of tho Emperor’s j iglit is derived from the French missionaries at

Pukin, who vre supposed to have access to some 1

good sources of information. S P A I N

The Madrid advices are to tho 25th tilt., at which date there are vague rumors of a dissolu- tion of the Cortes, and of a war between Spain and Portugal, because the troops of the former coun- try were approaching the Portuguese frontier. It is scarcely necessary to add that the reports merit no attention.

tThe Paris papera of the 1st inst. are barren of ntws. The Chambers were prorogued on the 30th ull. till the 9th January next. On the pre- ceding day the debate on the Regency I,aw began and ended in the Chamber of Poors. M. M. dr Drozc, Villemain, Gahriac, and the Princo do la Mowska spoke, when the law was pul to the vote, and passed by 103 votes against 11.

Hulchtry in China—We find the following paragraph in the London .Sun of tho 3d instant, relative to the last battle in China:

aV. Jr. Ifr.riitrJ. “Arrangements were made for an attack in three

'columns,'two of which were gallantly led by Sir 11. Gough and Sir W. Parker in person. Noth- ing could exceed the bravery of the troops. They contrived to surround the Chinese, and quite be- wildered them. Thecarnago was dreadful, beim» -100™ a butchery than a battle, ignorant of the laws of civilized warfare, the poor crealUiCB knew not how to surrender, and were massacred. Not Jess than a thousand of them, including a groat number of Mandarins, were killed or drowned in the canals; whereas of the British troops only threo were killed and twenty-two wounded. The encampments, and such oi the buildings as had

occupied by the enemy, were burned, and the grain magazines thrown open to the populace, who spucoily emptied them."

resented, as well as from oilier causes, was m> able to g’t as many of them into use this year a; lie had expected, living apprised of the grea variety ol situations nnd circumstances in whicl such a machine must operate, he concluded to a- wait another years’ experience, nnd additional testimony from different parts of the State, hcfor< hazarding a great deal; and he has now’ the sat- isfaction of presenting such accounts of the ope- rations of all his Reapers that were in use tliii year—from some of the most distinguished mon and agriculturi>ls in tlm State. Tiicsv it is thought will bo satisfactory to tlio most skeptical, and will show bow far bis representations of tlm ma- chine have been realized.

Tlm undersigned deems it only necessary to add, that for some time to come ho inti nds to de- vote his attention exclusively to introducing his machines into different parts of tlm country, by establishing agencies, selling rights, (w iiiclt he now offers for the first time,) or machines, and will continue to have them manufactured in tlm best manner, on the satuo t r:ns ns heretofore, guaranteeing their proficiency in every respect, it they perlorm as warranted to do, it w ill be seon, as staled also by others, that they will clear their price in one year’s use; and, if so, what tolerable Farmer can hesitate to purchase 1

As there is likely to he an extensive demand for these Machines, a considerable number buy- ing already been engaged, it is desirable that ap- plications for them should be made as soon as

may be, that the demand may ho supplied. The undersigned expects soon to have a cut and print- ed description of the Reaper, in detail, which lm can forward by mail to persons d. siring to know more of it, and which will enable any one to un- derstand its construction properly.

Frieo ot tlm Reaper $100. It is warranted to cut fifteen Acres per day with case, without he- ing subject to get out of order. It will eul 5i> to Hh) Acres without sharpening, and operates well in all sorts of small grain except eery s/turt 'vit*, and on any moderately hilly land tout is clear of (hard) sprouts, stumps, or large stones, but tlm latter, if low, may be cut round. It will save a bushel of wheat to the acre that would be lost bv ordinary cradling.

Messrs Kditors—1 have been surprised that tlm “Virginia Reaper,” invented by Cyrus 11. Mc- Cormick, of Kuckhridom. has not received some notice in our agricultural papers. 1 am satisfied tlu»t it is one of the most important ii.ipU-meotH which has been presented to the agriculturist for many years. 1 understand it has been patented since 181-1, but the patentee, with a most com- mendable putt, nee ami prudence, determined not to hazard the reputation ot his invention by supplying the public demand, till bo bad scrutini- zed, tested, arid perfected it by several years of private experience. After eight or nine years of care In] observation, lie again appears before tho public, prepared to guarantee with confidence the performance ol his rcapt r. 1 and others embraced the first opportunity ol supplying ourselves, and have used them as far as was practicable in our late wheat harvest. No far as 1 have any knowl- edge ol tac opinions ol those who purchased them, or of those who leave witnessed their per- formance, there is an unanimous concurrence in the belief that the machine in fully equal to every tiling said ot it in its advertisement.

I Itavo tested it satisfactorily in every grade and condition of wheat; in that which was verv light, as well as that which would have yielded, hut for the ru6t, from thirty to forty bus'll* Is per aero; in that which was ortict and in that which was tangled and fallen, ami tuur.d it to operate, in every instance, with surprising neatness r.nd t lli- cicncy, scarcely leaving a head, and but slighliv influenced in tho number of acres cut in a given timo by the condition 0f the grain. It was found to cut tangled and fallen grain w here ever it was not too fl.it to bo reached by the sickle as w ell as tout which was standing. The neatness and com- pleteness with which the crop is saved is scarcely conceivable to one who has not witnessed its work. Those most wedded to tho cradle, admit that the reaper wiil save on an average at least one bushel more to tho acre in stanuing w heat than the best cradling, whilst in tangled grain the saving would be augmented to double, treble, or even quadruple that amount. No that tho ma- chine, which costs only an hundred dollars, will pay for itself in cutting an ordinary crop. The machine too is simple and substantial; of course, not liable to get out of order, and when trom casually deranged or broken, easily rectified or repaired by an ordinary mechanic. Jt w ill cut with facility fifteen acres perday, and when push- ed, at least twenty. Two bands attend it with ease as rider and raker, relieving each other reg- ularly, and fivo or six will hind tho grain with morn ease than they would bind tho same quanti- fy grain alter cradlers and rakers, as tho ma- chine leaves it straight and in piles large enough lor several sheaves. It is fully equal to five choice cradlers, who would require five rakers and live binders to follow them, making fifteen in ail. Thus, you see there is a saving of the labor of eight hands in every day’s cutting of tin- reaper. It performs equally well on rolling and undulating as level land, and by taking steep hills obliquely, so as to graduate the ascent, the difficulty with them will be in a great degree obviated,

nm k in Hie Enquirer of October or November, 1841 .for a minute and satisfactory description ot the machine, and would suggest the propriety ot your appending it as a note' "to this letter, for the satisfaction of your readers. I will merely add, in closing this communication, the testimony ot a lowland farmer, who has had three of the ma- chines in operation this summer.

Mr. ('oroin Braxton, in a transcript with which 1 1,ave been provided, says, “I have had three ot Mr. < ’. II. M’Cormiek’s Patent Reapers at work tins harvest under my immediate observation; one on the farm on which I reside, and two others on farms under my management, and lake pleasure m stating, that the operation of all lias been ful- ly equal to my expectation ; and indeed rather exceeded it, as indeed that of all others who wit- ncssed the operation of the machine. Mr. Mc- Cormick’s advertisement is fully sustained. It will certainly cut from fifteen to twenty acres per day, it well attended to, and leaves not a straw that can he brought in contact with the cutter. It lias been worked this harvest under every disad- vantage which it was possible almost to bring to hear against it, inconsequence of the unpreceden- ted weather wo have had. It will cut any wheat tli,it is not too low for the reel and teeth to reach it. It does not appear to me to he a3 liable to get out ot order ns a common cradle, and I should think it would be very durable. The Reaper has cut all descriptions of wheat, green, ripe, rusted as badly as wheat could have it, lying and stand* ing. And I have no hesitation in saying, that I believe it one of the most important agricultural improvements oftlicd;>y,and think that e very farm- er cutting fifty acres of wheal would find it to his advantage to have one. No weather has prevented the Reaper from working, except when the ground was so soli as to mire the wheels.
