The undersigned having purchased the EXCLUSIVE RIGHT In and tor the State of Calitornla, for the Mannfucture and Sale of WINHAMS PATENT HOSE COUPLING, Hereby eautlon all partics against the manufacture or purchase of the above Hose Couplings, except through us, as ony lofr twill be pr d tothe full cxtent of the law. PRESCOTT & SCHEIDEL, Marysville Foundry. I3v10-310, March 3ist, 1865. This Machine ls now complete and ready for salo. In constructing It, our aim has becn to produce a tight, choap and economical Crushcr—one adapted to mining on a small ns well as on a large scale. The elementary principle on which it opcrates Is that of the stamp—the only one really reliable and economical. But the stamp has many serious disudvantages, smoug which are itsgreat welght and small velocity; the great power required to run it; difficulty In feeding properly; hnperfect discharge, and the necessity of crushing wel, or the annoyance from itust in crushing ry. All these difienitics are obviated in our machIne, and the pereusslve blow of the stamp retuined, with the further advantage of Its belng a drawlug or grinding one. We give to onr hammers such absolute or relative welght and vclocity as we ehoose—just such aslo effect thelr purpose and no more—thus securing the qualities of the natural hammer blow. The feed Is scil-adjusting_and uniform, ard as fast as Ihe ore reaches the required degree of flicness Qvhich depends upon the flneness of the screen or sicve used), it is instantly discharged, so that there is 10 packing of the ore under the hammers. The will crushes dry, with no more dust than that Incident to fecdIng, which is Irifling. As the only support of the mortarisa siugle post set into ihe ground, the machine can be put in place at slight expense. The size now belug built weighs about 1,800: pounds complete; the heavlesI plece not welghing over 275 ronnds. It is dylyen by Nalf a horse-power, and erushes from three to ten tons per day of twenty-four hours per day, according to the eharacter of the rock and the fineness to whleli it is reduced. PRICE,..c000:0005 seecouciin $3800, Larger ones will be furnished If desirca. We invite an Inspection of the Mill now In operation adjoining tbe Fonndry of DEVOE, DINSMORE & CO., on Fremont street, between Market and Mission, San Francisco.

The Annitgauinator is simple in Its construction, consisting of a pan or tub constructed of wood and ndapted to cithyr a Stone or lrou boitum. Opposite cach other, and on the inside ot Ihe ub. are two tinges, from two to four Inches brawl, reaching from the ron ti near the bottom, with rooin for the mullers to passunder.

For rapldly putverlzing and amalgamaling ores, they have nocqnal. No effort has been, at will be, xpared to have them constructed in the most perfect manner, and of the great number now In operntlon, not one has ever retired repairs. The constant and increasing demand for them is suliclent cyldenec o¥ thicir merits. They sre constructed so asta apply steam directly Into the pulp, or with steain bottoms, as desired, This Amalgamator Operates 23 Followa: The pan being filled, the .mothm of theinnller forces the pulp to the cenier, where it ls drnwn down throngh the aperture and.between the grinding surtaces. Thence it is thrown to the periphery hito the quicksilver. The curved yates again draw it to the eenter, where it parses down, und to the clrenmference as before. ‘Thus it is constantly passing Ina regular tlow between the grinding surtnces nnd to the quiches Weer, until the ore is reduced to un hmpalpable powder, and the metal amalgnmated. Setlers made on the same princigle excel all others.— They bring the pulp so constautiy and pertectly in contact with quicksilver, that the particles are rapidly and completely absorbed. MIll men are Invited to cxainIno these pans and setlers for themselves, at the PACIFIC FOUNDRY, 1vl0 San Francisco. Hepburn & Peterson’s AMALGAMATOR.
