He this season orders for competition a Machine Invented and Patented by his son, WILLODGERY Gazes. Its unparalleled and unprecedented suceses, and manifest superiority over all others, has induced him to undertake the sole manufacture of this truly valuable Machine, being the acme of perfection.

HORSE, PONY, AND DONKEY MACHINES.
The SILENS MESSOR has an extraordinary advantage over all others of this class: it in worked with a Patent Double Action Pinion Chain, and although much lighter, possess greater strength. The noise has hitherto been a great obstacle in the working of these Machines; horses and ponies taking fright at the shaking and rattling noise, running away and doing inconceivable damage. This machine can be worked with any draught or carriage horses, however spirited, doing its work silently and effectually. It has greater facilities in quick turning than any other Machine now in use-can be readily raised or lowered to cut the Grass any height required.
GREEN'S PATENT DOUBLE SELF-ACTING GRASS DELIVERY BOX.
The Patentee, in respectfully submitting the above to the Public, informs them that he has at length succeeded in offering to their notice a PERFECT IMPLEMENT. The Grass is collected in a small box, and by a simple contrivance, when full, transfers the contents to a larger one, which eventually deposits its burden in one large heap.

GREEN'S IMPROVED PATENT PARVUM MIRACULUM, Or, SINGLE-HANDED LAWN
MOWING MACHINE FOR 1861. CHAIN FULL SIZE CHAIN FULL SIZE.
BY ROYAL LETTERS PATENT, DATED JUNE 6, 1859.
The Patentee, in introducing this Machine to the public, respectfully informs them that his attention has been directed to the fact that many persons, having small plots of ground and fond of horticultural pursuit, are obliged to call in the aid of gardener to perform a portion of the work required, when, for the sake of health and relaxation from business they would prefer doing it themselves. The weight of the Parvum Miraculum is 54 IIb, and outs 15 inches, and can be sally worked by a boy; even a lady can indulge in this healthful exercise.
The above Machine worked with a Patent Cast Steel Pinion Chain, in the making of which T. G. has spared neither time nor expense in machinery for that purpose alone. The have been fully tested by steam power, and are warranted to stand any reasonable amount of work without getting out of order. This Machine, being so light and easily worked, requires no drawing handle; the levers are dispensed with for throwing in and out of cor. These alterations take from the weight, and very much simplify the Machine. The Cylinder has no each end, and the Cutters being steeled on both sides, by reversing the Cylinder it becomes self-sharpening. In previous Hand machines the Drams have been 14 inches; these are work with a 10-inch Dram, in proportion to the weight of the Machine. The Cutters are made the same strength as the larger Hand Machines, and will stand an equal amount of service In small plots and undulating ground, small bed and narrow person can do more work than two with the largo Hand Machine. The price of this Machine is 54, delivered (carriage paid from the works at Leeds), at all the principal Railway Stations in England.
