ROWTON
WINNER of the GREAT ST. LEGER.
.....This celebrated and unsurpassed English Race Horse and capital Stallion, will stand his present season at Wilton, Granville County, N.C. at $50 a Mare, and $75 to insure, due when she is ascertained to be with foal, or is parted with, with $1 to the Groom. The sesson money will be due the 1st of July, at which time the sesson expires. Mares fed at 33 cents perday, which must be paid before they are removed. Black servants boarded free of charge - Great attention shall be used to prevent accidents and escapes, but no responsibility for any which may happen. I pledge myself to my friends and patrrons, to do them justice in all respects, if they will send to Rowton. For his racing in England and that of his Colts, see hand bills

We have received the Prospectus of a new paper to be printed weekly, at Philadelphia, under the title of the "Franklin Journal and Mechanic's Magazine." It is to be under the patronage of the Franklin Institute of Pennsylvania, and is to be edited by Dr. Thos. P. Jones, at present one of the Principals in the Oxford Female Academy, and who is appointed Professor of Mechanics in the Institute. The object of this publication will be to diffuse information on every subject connected with the useful arts, but is particularly intended for the benefit of those engaged in Mechanical pursuits. Our acquaintance with the Editor, warrants us in recommending his proposed Journal to the patronage of the public, confident that his abilities and resources are such as will render it interesting and valuable.
Subscriptions received, at this office. Terms, $3.50 a year, paid in advance.
We take pleasure in stating that Dr. Thomas P. Jones of Philadelphia, late of Oxford, in this State, is appointed by the Secretary of State to succeed Dr. Thornton, as Superintendent of the Patent Office, at Washington. The Franklin Journal, which has given so much celebrity to Dr. Jones as its Editor, will be continued, it is presumed, by him. His acquirements in practical science and chemistry, and his great knowledge of Mechanics, has procured him the most honorable distinction in the estimation of scientific and literary men.
