A bid received after time,3o wit: tlie 1 Otb March j next, at 9a. in., or without tbc gnrranty required by law, j i or that continues several routes in one sum or compensa- j tion. cannot be considered in re-mpetitiou with a regular | proposal not ad j aged to bo extravagant. 13.

There should be. but oils route bid for in a proposal. 15.

Im- ! mediately after the Ist April text, report that fact to the j department,stating their exit* t distance from the railroad : depot, and how otherwise sup plied w it It the mail, to ena j bln tbc Postmaster General to direct tile proper supply j to he made from the railroad by mail messengers, from ! jinl after the Ist July next. 19 Under the act of3d H ircli, 18-15, the route is to lie let to the lowest bidder, tendering sufficient guaranties | for faithful performance, w ithout reference to (he mode I of transportation than in.ay be necessary to prov ide for j the due celerity, certainty, and security of such iraus i pollution. When tlie lowest bid p-eposes a mode of conveyance thai is inadequate for t’ne route in respect to the certain ty, security, and celerity of the mails, aside from any ac commodation for trav el, it will not be entitled to 4lie ■ route 20. When the bid d ors not name a mode ofconveyance, ! it will he taken and n aderstoodto be for the lowest mode of conveyance to wit: on ftoreback. When it proposes to carry according to the advertisement, and no mode of conveyance is stated for the route in the advertisement, it will he considered as offering only for horseback con- | veyance. 21. Since the pa ssage of the act of March 3, 1315, a 1 new description o/bid has been received. It specifies no | inode of conveyance, font engages to carry tile mail widi j | certainty, celerity, and security, using the terms of the j , law. These bids are called,fiom the manner in which i ■ they are de.-ic nated on the books ofthedepartment,“star | hid." It lias been decided, after mature consideration, j : that a bid proposing a specific mode of conveyance of as j 1 high ag- tie as two horse coadi transportation is to be j preferre toth** star bid. The experience of the depa t- 1 : nionT enables it to lay down the following rules, viv: : j When the mail on tlie route is noi so larae as to requira i two horse coach conveyance. a scar bid. if the lowest, Will j be preferred to the specific bid. 22. When the mails are of such size and weight as to : renderit necessary or expedient, in reference to them | alone, to provide two-horse couch conveyance, the spe cific bid. though the luffhe-t, » ill be preferred to tlie stat bid! to tlie extent of a moderate difference in the compen sation, in case the difference is not such as to interfere • with tlie policy ofthe new law, which looks to a reduc tion in tin’ cost of transportation, Exceptions, however, may be allowed where tbe star bid if made by the present owner ofthe stock on the route, ami it is manifest tfi.it t. lie reasons for preferring j[!ie specific bid do not exist in his case. 23. On routes of the highest class, where four-horse coach or steamboat transportation is required by flic size and importance of the mails, the preference f**r the spe cific bill will he, if necessary carried to u greater extent of difference than on ’he iuferor coach ionics, subject, however, to the exceptions above stated. 21. A modification of a bid, in any of its essential terms is tantamount to a new bid, aud cannot be received, so as to interfere with regular competition, after the last hour set for receiving bids. <-’• JOHNSON.

Seed should be planted, can be had at our of fice, and wilfbe furnished to purchasers of the Sefcd - doughty & beall, Agents of Mr. R. Abbey. As evidence of the superiority of the quality i °f the cotton produced from this Seed, we ap pend the following correspondence: Boston P/.a.vtat/on, ? Near Yazoo City, Mi.. Sept. 1, 1616. \ Dear Sir: The great attention awakened by the introduction of the MASTODON COT -1 ON into the Urdu J States, together with rny ! earnest desire tpat it may succeed in promoting i the interests ol the South, may be a sufficient ex- j cuse for this communication. 1 he seed were procured (as I suppose) near 1 t! >e northern extremity of the Culfof California, where there are extensive uninhabited regions, and where Cotton of various kinds is sometimes found growing wild. Its transfer to Mississippi, therefore, (the same latitude) keeps it still in its native climate. 1 hat you may not he imposed upon in the pur chase ol seed, it is proper for you to know, that, w;th but two stalks growing in 1842, hs cultiva tioa in 1811, had not extended beyond my plan tation, except In a single instance in my neigh j borhood. Ip 1615 it was first raised hv others.— j But its valuable properties not then being gen i erally known, it became much mixed and crossed, j in many instances, with other cotton; and hence | the vast quantities of mixed seed throughout the i country. And besides this, extensive frauds | have been committed by the sale ofquite differ i ent kindsot seed, as “Mastodon.” A large com | mission house in New Orleans has been exten -1 sively engaged in this business, and manv parts i ot the country Hooded with spurious seed. Should you wish to cultivate the Mastodon, Jon would do well to get seed that is genuine, audit is nearly equally important that it be neither j mixed or crossed with other cotton. 1 would , also suggest the greatest care in keeping your i setil pure. To prevent it from degenerating, i plant in small quantities ol picked seed occasiuu -1 Ally, to use lor seed. I have from tiie first taken the greatest possible ; I care of my seed, and have my present crop grow- | 1 ing entirely from picked seed. Isliall put up my j seed crop carefully for sale, with my name on [ each sack. They may be had in New Orleans j of Buckner & Stanton and Hooper & Marve, in i Mobile of Moulchin & Tevell, and shad also '■ have agenciesin the principal places in Alabama, j Georgia and South Carolina, To secure my j seed it should he especially inquired for. The Mastodon should be cultivated precisely j as other cotton, except that it should have a lit j tie more distance. The seed are very large and j while. To obtain a high price for the cotton it j should be handled and ginned well. | Bv taking the “Southern Cultivator.” Augus- i 1 ta, Ga., £1 per annum, you may learn more upon j this important subject. Almost any of the South- j i ern newspapers will be ot value to you in this re- j ; sped. Allow me to say that mv brother, Major M. E. Abbey, of Columbus, Miss., and Mr. D F. Miller, of J.,a., have, I believe, taken great pains in preserving the purity of their Mastodon cotton seed. By noting those remarks and circulating them among your friends, you will promote the inter ests of cotton growers, and oblige yours, respect fully, R. ABBEY* MASTODON COTTON.—From the fol ; lowing letter from one ofthe oldest and largest i Commission Houses in Europe, it will be seen that the wellginned Mastodon Cotton was worth in Liverpool, at the lime the letter was written, from 16 to *2O cents a pound. Ihe Cotton the letter speaks ot was ginned on the common gins. It is now settled beyond question, that an arti- : cle worth double the price of ourcommon Colton, 1 may be raised any where in the Cotton rcigiun, j without any additional expense or labor. In selecting seed, care should he taken to get that which is pure, as much of it is mixed with other seed. Mastodon seed arc all large and white. LIVERPOOL, Kept. S, 1516.. R. Abbey. Enq., Yazoo City , 31 Sir We regret that in reply to your favor ot j August sth, we can give little satisfactory infor- j mation as to the uses of Alastodon Cotton in our j manufactories. Even had a sufficient quantity gone into consumption, which there lias not, the | manufacturers would carefully conceal the uses to | o which thev put it, and its value to them. Ofthe quality and value of Ihc Cotton in our | markit, we can give a strong an 1 decided opin ion. We think its length and strength and silki ness of staple place it next below Sea Island Cot ton, from which it presents no marked point of difference, when not injured by ginning. This is a most important point, because saw ginned Sea Island dues not rank high in this market, ow ing to the staple being cut. The writer believes that he has seen every | parcel of Mastodon cotton in the Liverpool n 0 ; kct. For some lOd is asked. We sol4two bales, I dull in color, at BJ, and a rather large sale was ; made early in the season at 83 or fid. Had we j 100 bales of similar quality to the small bale of i Mr. W. 11. Mercer, we [should ask iUd, and we | have no doubt a sale might he made readily at i 9d. But yon must bear in mind the parcels of a hale or two are difficult to place, the buyer mak ing rather a favor of taking tltem. The principal points to attend to are first, fine ness, length and comparative strength of staple, which must not be injured by over-ginning or working the gin too fast, which converts valua ble cotton into a broken mass of fibres, expensive to separate and involving the loss of hall the Cot ton. Next to this, a fine pink bloom is desirable, i not too much of the cream color, and a degree of oiltness in the quality of the cotton, making the sample silky. These points attained, the Cotton would only be inferior to the higher qualities of Sea Islands. Wc remain you obedient servants, GEO. GREEN & SON. Jan. 13 —c 86 I pAINTSroi I>. WEN DOW G L ASS.

I state of the Blood or other tluids of the body, j The proprietor of this Alterative would most re ; sped fully assure the public that he has not otlered this preparation to their notice without due rellec tion, and close ami rigid study, nor until after twelve years’ experience had manifested its great superiority over every other article of the kind, — and he now recommends it with confidence, fully believing that the above combination of medicine will effectually eradicate from the system a class of disease some of which have heretofore been con sidered incurable. He lias prescribed it in almost every variety of disease and with unparalleled success, especially in cutaneous affections, cancerous, scrofulous and scorbutic diseases, and diseases originating from obstruct ion or enlargement of the glands or impuri ty of the blood. Cancer and Cancerous Tumors. lie has used this preparation in upwards of twen ty well defined cases of cancer and cancerous tu mors, and in every case but one with perfect and ! entire success. IJrouchocele or Goitre, {Swelled Neck.) j He has prescribed it in over a hundred cases of j goitre, ami it has never failed in a single instance to completely remove the disease. Not a solitary I case of fadure. All were cured. The success lie lias met with in curing broncho- 1 cele and cancerous affections has convinced him tirat these dangerous and horrible diseases may be removed with as much certainty as Fever and Ague. He does not wish to be understood as say ing that they can be cured as soon as Fever and Ague, but with as much certainty,* and further, that he has good reason for believing that this prepara tion will not only «tire these diseases when formed, | hut that it destroys the virus or poisonous principle ! lurking in the system, from which that peculiar | class of diseases, as well as that of scrofula emanate. Scrofula—King’s Evil. | This preparation has been n.-eil in numerous rases | ofScrofuia, King’s Evil, and scrofulous swellings, | and always with the most deed led success. Skin Diseases. He has prescribed it in a great variety of culane ; ous affections, and found it successful in curing salt ; rheum, or tetter, biles, blotches, pimples,morphew and jaundiced skin, Ac. % Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint. It has been used in numerous casesofliver com plaint and Dyspepsia, and with the happiest effect. Tic-Douloureux. It has been used in several cases of Neuralgia, and in every case it was successful. Rheumatism. This preparation has been prescribed in a great many cases of chronic rheutoaism, and in every j casein which it was used until tie* system became affected by the medicine, the disease was removed * Gout. A number of cases of gout have been cured by this preparation. In one ol these cases, the man had been afflicted with it so severely for thirteen years as to entirely disable him from business, and for five months immediately previous to his taking the Alterative he, had been confined to his room; but before lie hail finished the third bottle, he was enabled to walk about the streets and soon after re turned to lits business, from which he had so long been excluded by his afflictions. Dropsical Swellings, This medicine increases the powers of digestion, excites the absorbents into healthy exercise, by | which watery or calcareous depositions, and all 1 unnatural enlargements are reduced, it imparts i tone and vitality to the whole system, removing | sick and morbid headaches, giddiness, wandering pains and nervous affections. In fact, in every case where the medicine has been taken for some lime, no matter for what pur pose, the general health of the patient has always been improved by it. In conclusion, the proprietor would say that some i of THe most astonishing cases of skin diseases, can j cer, bronchocele,and scrofula, have been cured t>y I this medicine, that have ever been recorded; hut I want of room in this sheet precludes their pubiica -1 tion at tills time. CANCER. An interesting case cured by Jayne's Alterative. In the spring of 1831, a cancerous tumor appear ed in the right breast of Mrs. Flioebe, wife of Peter Stretch, of Salem, N. J. It was examined by many Physicians, and was considered by all ns cancerous, and besides bore ail ihe characteristic marks of one. All probable means of removing it were used without the slightest benefit, it continued to in crease botli in size and painfulness, uniil all hope ol saving her life, but by a painful operation, was abandoned, which, after a consultation of eminent , I Physicians, was performed, Jan. lst*Jß32, by Dr. | John Rhea Barton, assisted by Dr. Redman, the proprietor, and two otherinedical gentlemen. The ! whole and entire right breast was removed, and af ter examination of the tumor, was pronounced by all present a cancer of the most malignant charac ter. In about three mouths, after end tiring incredi ble sufferings, she was enabled, though broken in spirit, to gel about again. She remained feeble, and her general healt ti was exceedingly bad, as in deed it had been for several years before. In the springof 1837, upwards office years after herbreast i had been removed, a painful tumor made its ap pearance on lire right side, immediately over the part formerly occupied by the nipple of the right breast, previous toils removal. This tumor steadi ly increased for several months, and became so painful as to deprived her of rest. The glands un der the right arm were enlarged; and scin hus, and a hard, irregular, and at times painful tumour, ap peared in the left breast. No operation could now arrest thedisease. Indeed her whole body appear ed to lie a mass of disease. Her case was consid ered hopeless. Bhe wasof a very scrofulous habit, both her parents having died of Pulmonary con sumption. The experiment was now made with this Alterative. It was at first given in small doses, three times a day, and \ lie doses very gradu ally. but steadily increased daily, as long as she took it, which was about six months, and the skin over and around the tumour was wet night and : morning with a strong solution of lodine and Hv j driodate Potash. The tumour continued increas i ing in size for about six weeks, and was at times ! very painful, w hen the pain suddenly ceased alto ! gether, and the tnmoursw’elled out at the base,and became soft, and then began to diminish, and con tinued gradually decreasing until every vestige of disease was removed. The tumour in her left breast, and those tn her right axilla were also dis persed. No cancerous or scrofulous tumours ever appeared afterwards; and her general health, which had been so bad for fourteen \ ears as to make life a burthen, was effectually and permanently restored. The proprietor is in possession of the diseased 1 breast, and those who choose may examine it. He ' would also .-ay that he could mention over a dozen cases equally interesting, wherein his Alterative has subdued cancer and cancerous tumours, but he has not room hereto record them. 31 rs. Sarah Young, of Quinton’s Bridge, N. J., had a goitrous tumour on the left side of her wind pipe, a> large as the half of an orange, w hich w as cured by using this Alterative for about four months. 3li-s R S , South Fourth-street, Phila delphia, was also cured of an enlargement ofthe ; throat, which filled the entire spaee between the | chin and hreasi-bonc, and extended around on I each side of her neck to behind her ears, and front j her ears to her shoulders, and produced awful de ; fortuity. It commenced growing when she was ! but five years oli, and continued gradually to in j crease until siie was nineteen, at which lime she commenced using this Alterative, which she took I for seven months, which entirely reduced the en- I largement; and she has now as smooth and pretty | a neck as can be found. The proprietor is not at liberty togi\ e her name in print, but will refer per ' sons to her. For sale by W3l. K. KITCHEN, ! esp 28 ly 2 Sole Agent for Georgia. NEW YORK. SPRING GOODS.

TAHE subscriber being the only possessor in the I oiled Slates, of the recipe for preparin'*- j HAU DERIVES CHEMICALSOLU i ION" I for which the Society ofEncouragemcnt and Ag riculture of France, after testing the value of it for three consecutive years, through a commission composed of Scientific Agriculturists and (Jhe } niis’s, and after their favorable report, awarded the inventor a premium of 3,000 francs, and a gold medal. The stimulating power of the ingredients com posing tfiissolution is such, that by s tec pine the Seed in it, the effect is not only to accelerate tho germination, but to render the vegetation more ; vigorous, by its useful action ns a hygroscopic; I the gaseous emanations of carbonic acid, and ! carbonated hydrogen, nourish the plant, ami , make it more productive to the Farmer, by pre i venting rust and the attacks of insects. The numerous advantages arising from the use I of tliis Steep, are—lst, that it is the direct appli j cat : on of pabulum to the seed, instead of the : ground. 2d. It supersedes all brinings, lime, ' plaster, and all other troublesome operations now in use. 3d. It causes a much more speedy and hardy growth; and lastly, by maturing much ' sooner, (we think 10 dais,) it will evade the rust, | and consequently, give the husbandman a morn profitable harvest; also, the cost is moderate, (§5- fur the barrel of 33 to 35 gallons ') k 2 DIRECTIONS FOR USING THE CHEMICAL SOLUTION. Put in a tight tub as much of the Solution as is required for the quantity of Seed you have to soak—throw in the seed and let it remain, as follows- NV HEAT and TIME. (j Hours or more. OATS and BARLEY, 3 Hours or more, CLOVER and OTHER GRASS SEED, 2 Hours. I INDIAN CORN, IS to 21 Hours. g g* After being soaked, dry it through a hair- I sieve before sowing. CO I’TON SEED.— Southern Planters would find a groat benefit by using this Solution as a steep for their Cotton Seed before planting. The longer the Seed stand soaking the better. After j having been soaked, the Seeds must be drained 1 in a sieve or basket, and immediately planted. For the information of those who wish second testimony on this matter, he subjoins the opinion of some well known Agriculturists, who tried the j preparation on Wheat last Fall, and now renew their orders for an enlarged quantum for spring | seedings. Extract of a letter from JOHN S. SKIN NER, Esq., dated February 15, 18-15. Your So- I Union was tried, not by me, but my own son, F | G. Skinner; the Wheat he steeped in it was j sowed very late, yet he says the effect is very ap ; parent and highly beneficial, I shall recommend the trial oftbe Solution to all my friends next | spring, for their Oats, Com, Ac, Col. N. GOLDSROROUGH, writes, March Gth, 1845; Throe bushels were seeded in stiff white Oakland, and here 1 have every reason to be well satisfied with the experiment; the Wheat came up tbcee days earlier, and grew up with as tonishing vigor, and has maintained a superiority over the adjacent Wheat, which was brined ami limed and seeded the same dav in land of the same quality. It has constantly appeared thus far as if the land in which the Wheat stteeped in the Solution was seeded had been manured, and the other not; whereas the whole was dressed the preceding spring with harn-yard manure, Ac. Commodore JONES, U. S.Navy, writes : ‘‘A* to the effects of the Solution on the growing crop, Ac., 1 think very favorable. It has added much to the appearance as well as to the growth, Ac. !> (Order, double the quantum used last Fall.) Green Valley Farm , August 27, 1846. —Ihave tried your solution, last fall, on Wheat. I sowed a piece of land of three acres, one half the seed soaked with the Solution, and the other without any soaking. One acre and a half, with the seed soaked, gave 21 i bushels Wheat, the other one and a half acres only yielded 12|; the Wheat weighed 50i pounds per bushel, while that not soaked, only 57|. The Wheat soaked came up nearly four da ijs before the other, and harvested ticelvcdays sooner. PHILIP MARSO. 5jT Mr. A. MAUGE, of Augusta, Ga., is ap pointed my sole agent for this State. L.
