IIAITEKiyU’S
CHEMICAL SOLUTION.
FO.lt THE IMPROVEMENT OF
WHEAT AND OTHER SEEDS,
fHNiIE subscriber being the only possessor in the
j JL United States, of the re ripe fur preparing
j i lAU 1 ERI VE’S CUE vJ ICAESOEU t IG,\
| for which Ihe Sociefyot Encouragement and Ag
; riculture of France, a tier testing the value of it
1 for three consecutive years, through a commission
: composed of Scientific Agriculturists and Chc
mis’s, and after their favorable repprt, awarded
the inventor a premium ci ‘S.vLJj francs, and a,
gold tu«Aal.
The stimulating power of the ingredients com
posing this solution is such, that by steeping the
Seed in it, the effect is not o:\ly to accelerate the
germination, hut to render the vegetation more
vigorous, hy its useful action as a hygroscopic;
the gaseous emanations of carbonic acid, and
carbonated hydrogen, nourish the plant, and
make it more productive to the fanner, hy pre
venting rust and the attacks of insects.
The numerous advantages arising from the use
of this Steep, are —Ist, that it is the direct appli
cat on of pabulum to the seed, instead of the
ground. 2d. It supersedes all brininga, lime,
plaster, and all other troublesome operations now
in use. 3d. it causes a much more speed/ and
hardy growth; and lasllv, by maturing much
sooner, (we think 10 da . s,) it will evade the rust,
and consequently, gr'e Hie husbandman a more
profitable harvest; also, the cost is moderate,
for the barrel oi 33 to 35 gallons )
DIRECTIONS FOR USING THE CHEMICAL
SOLUTION.
Put in a tight tun as much of the Solution
es is required for the quantity of Seed you have
to soak—throw in the seed and let it remain, as
follows •
WHEAT and RYE, G Hoqrs ogr mare
OATS and BARLEY, 3 Hours or more
GEOVEIi and OTHER
GRASS SEED, 2 H nr=.
INDIAN CORN, 18 to 24 Hours.
After being soaked, dry it turougb a hai'*-
sieve before sowing.
CO’i'TQN SEED.,—Southern Planter-would
find a great benefit by using this Solution as a
steep for their Colton Seed before planting. The
longer the Seed stand soaking the better. Alter
having been soaked, the Seeds must be drained
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
preparation on Wheat last r ail, and now renew
{heir orders fur an enlarged quantum fur spring
seeding*.
Extract of a letter from JOHN S. SKIN
NEIi, Esq., dated February 15, 1845. Your So
lution was tried, not b> me, but mv own soli, F.
G. Skinner; the Wheat he sleet e.f in it was
sowed very late, yet he says the effect is very ap
parent and higbL beneficial, I shall recommend
the trial of the Solution to all my friends next
spring, for their Gals, Coin, iN;c.
Col. N. G 3LD3BOROUGH. writes, March
I Gth, 1815; Three bushels ware seeded in stiff
white oak land, and here I have every reason to
j he well satisfied with the experiment; the Wheat
came up thcee eat Her, and grew up with as
■ tonishing vigor, and has maintained a superiority
over the adjacent W neat, which brined and
litqed and seeded the same day in land of the
same quality. It has constantly appeared thus
i 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 watt dressed the
; preceding spring with harn-yaid manure, Ate.
Commodore JONES, U. S. Navy, writes : ‘‘As
to the effects of tlv Solution on the growing crop,
; Arc., {.think very favorable. It has added much
to the appearancp well as to the growth, Arc.”
(Order, double the quantum used last Fall.)
Green Valley Farm , August 27, 181 G.—l have
tried your solution, lugt fall, on Wheat. I sowed
1 a piece of land of three’acres, one half the seed
I soaked with tlie Solution, anil the other without
anv soaking. One acre and a half, with the
seed soaked, gave 2l£ bushels Wheat, the other
unp and a half acres only yielded I2f: the Wheat
weighed 5Ht pounds per bushel, while that not
soaked, only 5*4. The Wheat soaked came up
nearly four days before the other, and harvested
twelve days sooner. PHIL, ID iViARSO.

or any affection ol' the Lungs. Liver or Chest,
j after reading ihe following letter, just received from a
I no si respectable inhabitant of Westchester County
| New York.
Tarrytown, Aug. 9, H 44.
Dear Doctor—li is difficult to lin'd words to express the
gratitude which 1 feel towards you for the interest you
have taken to relieve me in my di.-treas. In the year
lal'2 I contracted a heavy cold, which finally settled on
my lungs; in a few months after 1 commenced coughing
and laising offensive matter, which smelt very bad.
Having heard that Sherman’s Lozenges were good for a
cough I tried a few boxes of them, but they had not the
least effect on me. I then called in the best physician in the
place, whoa tended me a few months, but without sue,
cess; I then saw an advertisement in one of the ciry
papersof Wislar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry, of which 1
pur- based three bottles, at the corner of Fulton and N as
sail but I could not perceive t e least beneficial
effect from it, on the contrary 1 think it was a great in
jury to me. Shortly after using it I commenced raising
blood in large quantities; 1 was taken down sick and
confined to the hou-e for three months, during which
lime 1 lost my appetiieandf. il away very fast; I was
then induced to consult Dr. Curlisof New York, (one of
the best physicians in the city,) but he could do me no
good. I again became worse, and was confined to the
liouse all last winter and spring, and 1 ga> e hP all hope of
ever getting any better, as I again raised blood and my
cough was very severe, together with a pain in my hreu.-t
and under the shoulder blade. My friends now gave up
all hope of ray recovering, and thought every day was
the last. About this time I heard of your BALSAM OF
LIVERWORT being good for consumption, hut 1 was
like many others, and was fearful tiial it might be a regu
lar humbug; I however finally consented to try it, as I
thought it could make me no worse. My brother then
purchased a Louie of it ks. 375 Bowery, N. V.. and I com
menced taking if. and by the time 1 had Used one hotl l6
full I could sleep all night, and in the morning I had an
appetite for my breakfast. 1 still keep on taking it and
find great benefit from it—the pain in my breast isentire-
Iv gone, and 1 raise no more blood. Withinlhe last two
months I have gamed in weight six pounds and much in
strong Ii- 1 would therefore advise all who have any
alTec ion of the Lungs or Liver to try the Genuine Dr.
Tavlor’s Balsam of Liverwort, for I truly believe it to
bet lie best remedy in existence for diseases of the Lungs
orE^ v '♦ !r • Should any one duuht the above statement re-
I alive to your valuable medicine, let a,in call on me, and
I w ill convince them of its virtue.

former for more than two years, and the latter for
upwards of one year last prp t. 1 have kept an
accurate account of the pr duct, waste and cost I
of operating each ih scription of Mule, and the

I have no hesitation in saying the Smith’s
Mijle will turn off more work per spindle than
any other now in use; that it requires less trouble
to keep it in order, and may be kept in repair at
less expense. Yours, respectfully,

have long regarded it as a most humiliating rc
V T flection ilium llic Bouth. that no professedly neu
, tral amifv jou riiil lias yd been sustained vv thin in r hiir
j ders. We have tested the expciiu. ui whether such a
: paper could not be supper ed at the immediate South,
j and though not wholly unsuccessful, nun xperience fas
tatigut us that the papers of this class published in the
large Northern cities, po.sess advantages over those of
the country , which, in a measure, d fy compe i ion. Cut
i lie.re the'ease is different. Baltiinure, stapiling as t does
on tile I o tier of the Siiutoern States, is yet near enq gh
to the great commercial, literary and political emporium,
to be ini hided in the neighborhood of great Anvru au
cities, and to enjoy all ttie advantages, as a radiating
point. w|iich are possessed by either Fniladelphia. Boston
i r,N w York. A paper issued Irom Baltimore has all the
fa ilitics for obtaining the latest literary in elligence, as
: wi lias the current literature of the day, foreign and do
; mestic, that are enjoyed by the journals of the Northern
i cities. The Western Continent is as large, as cheap, •
I and can be better adapted to the wan s ami tastes ofSoutli- I
; ern readers, than tliose Nort!i ,- rn papers which now draw
I so laree an amount of their patronage from the Southern ’
public.
Eiitertaininglhese views, wr have looked with confi- |
deuce to the success of the Continent. Eiirlu month’s !
experience has tended to strengthen that confidence, and
j now we enter upon its publication with a firm conviction
■ that all that is necessary to secure for it a circulation :
; equal io that of its Northern eoleinporaries, is a faithful |
and enei getic devotion of our best abilities to make it a
useful and enterainiog Family Journal. It is our dc- j
sign to make the Western Continent emphatically a j
Southern family paper, that may be read with interest
and profit by every member of a Southern family.— i
With this view. we shall draw for our literarv depart
ment, from the best sources,such matter as will interest j
and entertain the mind, without offending the taste or
orruutinsr the morals of our readers.
Pains will be taken to give the alest intelligence on al
subjects of interest to the general reader, to the exclu
sion of the vast amount of local matter, such as personal
gossip, police reports, lheatr»cal and other criticisms,
w hich mlTke up so iargea portion oflhe staple of soraeof
the popular weeklies cl the North, jn s v.'ptd, though
■we shall endeavor to make our paper interesting to all, ;
onr chief aim shall be to adapt it to the wants and tastes
of the people of it*c South and Soutli-W'e.-t, upon w horn,
and these of our own city who are disposed to sustain
such a journal, Wc inu-t n.ainly depend for support.
R lying more upon the intrinsic merits of our paper,
than on any promises we might make in a prospectus,
we will close by appealing to the readers of the South
and West for a share of that patronage w inch they so
liberally bestow upon the overgrow n weeklies of the
North.
