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. gFT Mr. A. MAUGE, of Augusta, Ga., is ap- J pointed mv sole agent for this Slate. .L.

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.

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.
