Mr. fvHiTn : Ifoar S.r—Xotmiug tonic short Inin; since, several editorial jib-era in the* most-: iTttcrosling journal under vour parcn’al care, recommending the culture of ornamental native* plan’s, many of which arc trujv, as vo;i sav, • I- > ly as deserving the cure h* -cowed on tb'-rn. as iiH»s* of those that are- obtain*-d at a gn at t ,\- th row in my mite with a \i*. o to forward this f» raise worthy object. i The delightful a ‘udv of holaii} is of those; 1 luxuries, whfoh. it is tr .*■-. w-. might H v;*< ;:rc ; With, r.« w* could with ail other caffs l!i;h merits and sweeteners oflifc; but the elegance of the 1 aiims» ni< u’s it affords, were it commendable fori, this alone, would filly deserve ’ho attention of .*.ll that can bes'ow a few ! i>un- moment • to it. T it has, however, higher claims to oar notice, as on** of th«-bran* lies of lids natural science by I 1 whir! 1 w<* a r*-enabled townleh the secrets ol na- 1 turc in her epera’ions on l!so vegetable v. *ul«J, which sa I"v us with food, clothing, medicine, and an I*.tinity'ofobjects ibr lie- arts, so abun dant that if is next to impossible to enumerate V tin in. The beauty of the objects of botanical ji 1 s aence, and the innocent pie., ires attending its ■ ' pursuit, are ohioflv my present object. To do j ice to s I'-ii a subject is undoubtcdlv much \ * , . . * . jt b< V"U<l mv powers* for it naturally chuins a corn spending el* -guncc <»t style-, and a llowery fl*»w of language not within my reach. Some objections have been made*, apparently , with jiumc re asonableness, J<> the nuiAcr oi j 1 hardi and uncouth names given to many ofrhese ;■ loVfly (>b)( ets.—it must he admitted that this is n serious fault, and this. 1 fear, will be found a ;t-i(lici**nf reason why the names of plants ini; eiirdeiuug will contimic som what different from ! n P what fll cv are in botany. Vv iiat sweet and love- ,| ly bps could be so twisted and contorted as to; call a w ry b» antiful and interesting plant, named n bv W iil'leuow “JSfhrankia uncinata, ’ and byk Miehuux “Mimosa liorrldula Ah ! iMicliaux,Jl Miehuux! 1 low ungaiiaut for a r'rencliman to affix so horrid a specific name as “horriduhi” to the sensitive, elegant, sweet-scented plant here j' named! True, it has some prickles ; but thisis* analogous with its lovely sensitiveness, which makes if shrink from familiarity. Saw you not that tliisis in accordance with this modest dread , of pollution that it is armed, to forbid the rude touch <*f inconsiderate man ? Or v. ho could n cog- , 1 riiv a'i elegant little shrub in the names “Ammyr- , sine huxifolia,” or “ Leiophylli/m buxifolium ?*’ There are, however, many worse than these, which were taken at random. The harshness of , the names are, however, more apparent than real. A more owing to our not being familiar with i 1 them than wn r.re. But, if there are ineonveni- p ences in the use of botanical names, they’ would probably he still more numerous, were two sets j ( of names adopted; for plants have names enough already' in all conscience, and these arc ineon- j 1 venienoes that must be borne in deference to the f. excellent reasons which botanists can give for p their names, oven ifsome of them do disfigure ff boa l iful plan’s with horrid ones. This will ] jirobaMy give rise to two sets of names, one for ff botany ami the other for gardening, as I have p sc. n it proposed some years since, when it was j] suggested, for example, for that magnificent tree, i 1 the “Liriodendron tulipitcra,” proposing to call j it “Liris.” Gao of the great recommendations ff of the use of botanical names, is that they are j understood every where in the world where there j 1 nr*- botanis’s, and this, without scarcely the pos- f’ sibility of a mistake. The use of vulgar names ff ought, at all events, to he given up; for they ff seem to have been invented at the tower ol'Ba- ff bel; f«*r they serve only frequently to conceal p the meaning of the speaker, and this misunder- p standing may often be attended with very un plcasant circumstances, as I knew one instance of a physician who knew the botanical name of i a medicinal plant, the “Podophyllum pelatum,” but not the plant itself. lie inquired for it by j 1 its vulgar name of “ May apple,” and was di- | reeled to another plant, the “ Pussiflora incar- 1 nata,” also called “May apple.” He adminis- 1 tcred its root, with what effect, I do not remem- ; bvr; but, for what he knew, la* might have been ’ administering poison so his patient. Mistakes of this kind, and from this cause, are of oner made J 1 * than wo arc aware of. (■ Some fastidious persons have also made nno ther objection, viz : the sexual system of being, as they say, exceedingly indelicate. But, 4 * Honi soil qui mal pease.” This objection is ; now generally overlooked; but to such as can not get over it, I would advise seriously to select ; another planet to live in, whore things may per- I chance, have been ordered differently ; for eve- j ry thing on ibis terraqueous globe must harrow up their supcrdclicatc nerves past endurance, ns it appears, that the God of nature has tho’t j»roper to give sex to all organised nature. In delicate ns tiiis may he in the eyes of some per sons, it is very probable that the Creator was a better judge in thoke matters, than they. I am indebted !<* botany, with all its defects, although I have but a smattering of it, for very many pleasant hours, and for the acquaintance of the best and most amiable men 1 ever knew ; j I am, therefore, very partial toil. How dc-j lightful it is, when a man’s mind is rendered moody and peevish, by the ill-usage of a wick- i< eu world, to be able to regain his composure, M an! forget file ills so which lie. is a victim, by; < simply s*tpiping out into his garden, the fields or' the grows, wlioro bountifui nature affords him.!;' on all sides, attractions which he cannot resist, j - even if he were disposed to do so ! How ele- j' vatiug to his spirits, as it must be at least inno. j ••eat to his morals, to admire those endless beau- 1 ties of the vegetable kingdom ; to scan the in- j. finite variety of contrivances with which the i Author of all has endowed every plant, from j the smallest moss to the most gigantic tree, to ’ 00 7 ; s suit each for its purpose; how he has endowed! some with the* most brilliant colors, the most; , fragrant odors, the pleasantest tastes, and the fj, most graceful forms. To speculate as to theij l particular object of each of these perfections ;lj* whethe»they were so created, simply to regale j, ungrateful man’s senses ; or, which is most pro- ; ; liable, whet her there Ls not, in all tiiis, some mys- * terv which his sagacity has not yet been able j’ to penetrate. He must be satisfied, whatever be the result of his cogitations, that the .so tiling ' s were not created in vain, and be grateful for the < share of enjoyment they aflorvi him, aotwilh- j* standing his ignorance. That this country p rot luces plants as interest-|r iug auJ as useful as any other country, is {jot fcctly certain. Tiioy are much sought after in ICurope, and some of them which we disregan! •lore, boar a very high price there. Far bo it from me to discourage in any degree the cul ture of exotic plants ; 4 only wish to attract 1 some notice upon our neglected and frequently ;l unfcecn native beauties. Taking notice of our forest trees first, one of,, them will scarcely be found on trial, but what ifji planted in a suitable soil, giving it ample space: to develope itself and assume freely its natural shape, will excite much more admiration than i was anticipated. A tree, no matter ot what |kind,% a grand and beautiful object, and moat;; L. | i \ our rcaccts ii.ust have so>u a variety Oi -.i th*-m which had Ixx n !*.*ft or suffered to grow un- ; 1 iiKjlcstc-1 in some old fie 11, yard or lot, hut t;:at • Ibr surj*assed in beauty ol form, density of shade, Ac. any thing that could have been ex{*ected from seeing them crowd'-d together in our tor- bi ests. C?m a more magnificent object be seen da VdiT these circumstances than the “ Lirifxlen- Cl • ip'ii tulipifera?” I have seen it, (I sj>cak from: • vs’ant recollection) at least fifty or sixty feet high to its lowest branches, with a body perfect. ~ iv straig'nt and probably about three feel in dia mete r at tliat height, and this superb column j, 1 surmounted by a most licautifully expanded j j,, cone. The delicate hue of its uncommonly i 'shaped leaves, added to its other merits, made g' ,it one of the most grand objects of the vegtta- j ll ble world. IA ■rv species of our numerous oaks aj 1 arc beautiful and some of them unsurpassed. • All the individuals of that beautiful family the i :f magnolias.” arc elegant. Some of them splen- 61 •lid ,an*l all highly deserving of culture. M'hat ; “ (exotic shrub bears a more beautiful flower than ' . |onr“ Kahnia latifolia,” disgraced as it is with such names as calico shrub, laurel, ivy, Ac. Ac. [c» the last two names being those of plants with j which it bears no sort of affinity; but as they d 1 are the name s of other plants, tl*ey surely should l e( ■not he ajiplietl to this. We have ulso the “ Rho- ! s ] d'*d<-ndrou maximum,” and several o’hers, tlie igi 1 beauties of whose flowers are unsurpassed. Al 'r,o, the “ Stewarlia malachodendrum,” the fumi-i Cj 'lies of spira-a, symphonin, viburnum, lonicern, - •halos!a, gelsomium, euonymus, cratx*gus, caly- ! /ranUius, chionanthus, amorpha, andromeda, big. ' ' nouia, clematis, gordonia, robinia, ot the splen did azalea, Ac. Ac. which among the trees, *similes and climbing plants, are ot no common ■merit fi«r ornament, besides the high value ot j tn some of them in the arts. Among the herbace-1;« ,011 s plants, the beautiful ones are so that only a few of them cun be noticed. And to begin with the lily tribe ; can any thing sur pass the amazing splendor of some of them ? ;61 I remember when, many years since, I first saw “ .the “ Lilium stlperbum” in its native glory, I : was rambling tlirough the fores's beyond Pitts- burg and came at once and unexpectedly on a small prairie of perhaps ten to fifteen acres in £ (extent, when I was amazed by the surpassing j 1 splendor, brilliancy and gracefulness of several of those plants in full bloom, some of them pro- /j table at least seven feet high, and having some P ’ ; thirty or forty flowers expanded ! Truly, “ So- ci lomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of those.” Connected with this family are the P amaryllis, crinura, pancratium, Ac. all of which L ! are well worthy of culture and arc cultivated ahd admired in Europe. The family of the as- clopias is also beautiful, and promise to he more (over of great utility in the arts; for besides the | numerous silky aigrettes that crown their seeds ; M the fibres of the bark of all of them arc more or less susceptible of being converted into cloths of very fine texture and silky gloss. The “ F rti- sera waiter!” is a curious and handsome plant (not yet cultivated that I know of. The amso- gi Injas, gentians, some of which are very orna mental ; the hydrangea, hypericum, monarda, ocnothera,yucca,“Spigelia marilandica,”rhoxia, _ pornassia, i pome a. The “Cantua coronopifolia’ or “ Ipomopsis clogans,” really deserving its last specific name, the asters, the elegant “ Calo-j g pogon pulchellns,” the several cypripcdmms,! the numerous family of the orchis, Ac. Ac. | l * ( But why should I attempt an enumeration of; <r| that which is almost innumerable ? to To such persons who cannot bring themselves ec to think that any thing is worth their notice, whose value cannot be estimated in dollars and l gl cents, and who consider the culture of merely | ornamental plants, as at best, a very idle pur- Gi suit, I would ask, whether, in a very hot day,, - and after having suffered much fatigue, the re clining in the shade of beautiful trees and shrub bery, is not of rather more benefit to them than r flic dollars they may have at the time in th&lrj C i pockets, —whether the refreshing fragrance the flowers and the cooling and delicious tastes; of the fruits, are devoid of utility ? It is only! by cultivating our native plants that their spe-i cific properties can be, first suspected, discover-- * ed and then proved. Can we form any idea of all the treasures in reserve for the world, lie con. v cealed in thousands of vegetable productions that arc* now the object of our disregard ? Have we any suspicion of the possible benefit to man. | kind that may be yet extracted from the vege. table world, in medicine, for food and in all the p arts? And if most of the useful discoveries 01 yet made in this world have been in a great T ; measure the effect of chance, will not that (chance be much enhanced when these objects , 0 ; ; have become more noticed, their culture attend jodto, and their every part studied with sedu jlouscarc? Every thing that softens the harsh ~ nature of man, every thing that has a tendency v to temper his passions, to draw away his atten tion, even for a moment from the sordid pelf and gripping avarice of unjust, rapacious, greedy and ambitious man, must -elevate his feelings, purify his mind, ennoble his pursuits and avoca tions, and bring him nearer and nearer to that in * O • I. ultimate degree of perfection attainable by his finite being in this world. It w, perhaps, only; ,- t by an extended study* of nature that man can! w 1 free himself from the thraldom of superstition! which requires of him tltc total surrender of his( reason, and by dispelling the gloom of ignor-l ance, enable him to preserve and improve that! faculty vouchsafed to him by his creator, which j V alone distinguishes him from the brute.

'H'IIIS popular Journal is printed on an extra size , imperial sheet, of the largest dimensions. It cot\- , tains twenty-eight columns of reading matter, each co lumn being equal to eight pages of a duodecimo book. The publication of the COURIER was commenced in l April last, since which time it lias received a patronage ; so unexampled that more than seven thousand copies arc j now distributed weekly through ail parts of the I lifted j States. This fact, which has no parallel in the annuls 1 of the periodical-press, will show the high estimation in I which the Courier is everywhere held; and that the same ratio of increase will continue, may fairly he pro-; 'sinned, inasmuch as since the commencement ot the present month, nearly one thousand new names have been added to the subscription list. The Courier possesses advantages over all other week-- ly newspapers. Its immense size admits of the greatest; possible variety, and its contents furnish an extensive, j useful, npvel, entertaining ahd instructive miscellany, comprising the different branches of popular literature, such as Tales, Poetry, Essays, Criticisms, &c.; notices of the Fine Arts, Humor, Sporting, Anecdote, Sketches of Life and Manners, Police Reports, Prices Current of the Grain Market, Foreign and Domestic Intelligence of the latest dates, and an abstract and summary ot all mat. tors which may possess interest for the general reader. The Literary Department of the Courier is watchfully superintended, and no article is admitted which does not possess positive merit. One Hundred Dollars were paid for a Prize Tale which was published in this paper on the 7th of January, and other inducements have been offered to secure original contributions. Among the vo luntary correspondents of the Courier are Miss Leslie, (author of several publications, which have been highly! applauded by American and European critics;) Richard’ Petm (Smith, the celebrated Dramatist, Novelist, and I Magazine writer —Mrs. Caroline Lee Hcntz, the accom plished author of the prize tragedy, “De Lara”—Miss Bacon, the lair writer of the patlictic “ Love’s Martyr,” &c. And many others whose names are equally distin guished; besides a number, whose productions under fic titious signatures, have elicited general approbation. In the selection of literary matter, the publishers of the Courier have extensive facilities. Their exchange I list includes the most valuable American journals; and tuuong other periodicals which they receive from abroad may be specially enumerated BulwoPs new Monthly, Campbell’s Metropolitan, Frazer’s Magazine, London Literary Gazette, Blackwood’s, La Belle Assemblee, World of Fashion, and the United Service Journal. Through their agent, Mr. Willmcr, they are also furnish ed with the choicest English papers, including the John Bull, Bell’s Life in London, Jtc. A portion of the Courier is appropriated to Sporting Intelligence, and particularly to that branch which relates to the Turf, Subjects of this kind arc introduced as of. iten as a proper regard to variety will admit. Descrip tions of Favourite Horses, their pedigree, performance and appearance, accompanied with engraved likenesses , 1 aYfe occasionally given, in furnishing which assistance is, procured from several distinguished sportsmen. Police Reports occupy a share of attention. Tltcsej are prepared by a skilful person, engaged expressly for \ that purpose; and as the material, are gathered from au- i thentic sourccss, their general accuracy may be court-1 dently relied. In arranging them for the press the re- j porter combine, f'acstiousness with fact, and so constructs the naratives, that in most instances they will he found ; extremely graphic and diverting, without the slightest ! 1 *Hieriricc of truth. In preparing the contents of the Courier, strict regard i is paid to News. All foreign intelligence, up to the la- ' test dates, is invariably given; and whenever a press oft matter may require it, an extra will be published. The summary ol domestic affairs is more complete, cur-. 1 rect and full, and embodies a greater extent and variety j of information than can be found in any other paper, as in i | addition to a condensed statement 61' localities, a synopsis! • of passing events in all parts of the country is regularly) 1 prepared and published. i ; In order that those who have to langli may find matter J | for their mirth, each number contains a melange of Hu- ■ ■ mourous Subjects, some of which is illustrated by an | : engraving, executed by a skilful artist.

A summary view will he given every week in the j Herald of all important events that may transpire in I the world, as we may collect it trotn the Newspapers ot the United States ami from Europe. The location of the Herald in the vicinity of the Che rokee eountrv and the tr'nlden Mines, will enable us t<> i give all the Indian and Holden Arms trotn that region. But few persons, it is hoped, iu this and flic adjoiuin;; counties, will refuse to patronize the Herald, as thee by much money may ho retained in this section that now goes abroad for Newspapers and other prints. 3lost excellent facilities are now afforded by flic ft qiicncy of the mails to this place, of obtaining the car licit iivws from Milledgeville, Augusta, Savanna!. Charleston, New-York, and the other northern cities, and of disseminating the same by the Herald, to every section. No pains Or expense will ho withheld from r- ndcriug the Herald worthy of a liberal patronage and whu it we have reason to believe it will obtain.

In presenting this I number to tho notice of our patrons we again take occa i shut to render thanks for the liberality which has been ! extended towards us, and to invite attention to onr work i It would be fastidious in us to deny that our Book po?- : sesSes merits which no similar publication can fairly I claim. The immense and unprecedented patronage bestowed upon it, the continual rapid augmentation ol the general and concurrent testimony of the press in its 1 favour, are circumstances which leave us no room fer ; doubt on tins subject. Indeed with the superior facili | tics we possess, we should bo properly obnoxious to ce;;- • sure, if our work did not surpass its contemporaries. In our present number we think there will he found considerable improvement. Wc respectfully ask atten ! tion to our Plato of the Fashions, which we boldly as sert is unequalled by any similar engraving heretofore published in this country, and in proof of this we need only institute a comparison bet ween it and those furnish ed by other periodicals. Anxious as we have always been to avoid any invidious distinctions, wc should not have referred to tlfis matter, bad not ‘ comparison been challenged' by the publisher of another journal. We hope the contrast will be made, and shall esteem it ft particular favour on fdie part of our editorial brethren if any of them whose leisure wUI permit, will examine our plate cither in reference to its own merits, or by comparison with others. The result of such an exam ination we know must be favourable. The artists em ployed by us are of the llrst excellence, and their works • are such as need shrink from no investigation. Thu wood engravings accompanying the present number will , also he found worthy of admiration. ■ 3\ e had hoped to furnish in the present number ihe ! PRIZE TALE and POEM or which our premium? >•[ S2->0 wore offered. In this wc have been disappear ed, as the gentlemen composing the Committee hav ■ been so occupied in their various public avocations, that they have not yet made the award. In our next we j shall have the pleasure of laying both the Prize articles i before our readers, and it gratifies us to bo able to as sure them that, wherever the award may fall, it will he 'well deserved, as we have received and laid before the Committee a very large number of unusually interesting Tales and Poems. The publication of these will ir regularly continued, and the future numbers of the Lady’s Book will contain original contributions such as will safely bear comparison with those of any other periodical, foreign or American. Iu the course of the volume which has now eont- I menced, a variety of improvements will be effected, j Among theso we may mention the introduction of sev j erai very peculiar and striking engravings, dj’ Agent in this city, W.
