THE CILTIRE OF ftHI BARB.
Baltimorf, April 14, 1832.
Dear Sir , —The Rhubarb is the simplest
thing possible to cultivate. Nature informs us.
by example, that the crown of the root should
be set about one inch tinder—this being i’s si,
tuation, (after the foliage disappears) in wintun
For culinary purposes, when it is cultivated for
the petioles, or leaf-stalks, and of course a her- i
donee of them and large ones too, are repaired, ,
it should have a very nch soil, neither high nor .
low ground, but u medium site, somewhat shn- ,
dy. If made rich with stable-manure well rot
ted is the best. Whenever the leaf stalks are
large enough, say from eight inches to a foot o
more long, thev may be cut for use. Cut them
dose to the ground, strip off the leaf, and the
thin skin from the stem, cut the stem into pieces,
half an inch long, and svw them as you would
gooseberries for tarts. They require a large
quantity of sugar, (about their weight,) before
they are stewed —it is inconceivable how much
the acid and flavor are improved by stewing.
When stewed they are to be made into tarts in
the same manner that other green fruits are.
Mrs. Smith always gathers all the leaf stalks
not wanted for present use, prepares and puts
them up as a conserve for winter use, for which
purpose the rhubarb has no equal. After the
leaf stalks are prepared, (peeled and cut) she
makes a syrup of as much sugar, (good brown]
by weight as she has rhubarb, and gently stews
the rhubarb in it till done : when cool it is put
away in stone or glass jars for use.
in cutting the leafstalks, take only the outer
large leaves, leaving the young and small ones
on the plant. I never force or blach rhubarb,
it injures the flavor materially ; or at least it
spoils it for my use.
I ought to have salt! something of the culture
of the plant. After it is set in rich ground no
thing more is necessary to be done. The plant
being set two feet apart each way will smother
the weeds. It would he well, however, to spade
the ground occasionally, to secure the absorp
tion of moisture. Ihe plants last many years,
and are capable of being divided every year il
desired ; in which case*, split the roots so as to
leave a bud on each division.
This plant is extremely difficult to raise from
seed, being very hard to vegetate. It must be
sown in February, and will require frequent wa
tering, if the weather be dry, in March and A
pril. The plants may be transplanted into their
allotted place in the fall or the next spring, and
will bear cutting the second year, that is the
same season they are transplanted. The plants
from which seed is expected must be set in a soil
more dry and sandy than those for culinary pur
poses, as those in the rich soil seldom seed well.
However highly I estimate the rhubarb for
culinary purposes, it has a value far above all
price in another respect, to me. I have found
the tarts and the conserve made of it a sover
eign remedy for cholera infantum , or summer
complaint in children. My little daughter pass
ed the summer of her second year in that af
flicting disease, barely having life left at the ap
proach of winter. During the winter she re
covered n little strength, hut wc were obliged to
deny her all fruits and vegetables. With the
commencement of warm weather in the next
year her complaint returned with redoubled
violence and inveteracy, so that on the 6th of
July, all hope of saving her had been abandon
ed. Walking in my garden on the morning of
that day, after having just denied her some fruit
which the other children were allowed to eat
freely, and feeling much pain on account of the
apparent cruelty which it was my duty to exer
cise in denying her the fruit, it occurred to me
that I would have a tart made of the rhubarb
for her. [Our supply had been so small that we
had seldom used it in the family previously.]
I immediately cut some leaves and caused the
tart to be made. She ate a small piece of it at
12 o’lock, another at 2, and at 3 o’clock an evi
dent change was perceptible in her stools, of
which she had previously had from six to twen
ty a day.—Afler three o’clock she had no stool
till next morning, when it was natural ; the first
natural one she had had for many months.
From that time to this, site has been free from
the complaint; or rather, whenever it has oc
currcd, a single piece of the tart or a spoonfu
of the conserve, has been sufficient to arrest it
We have since used it with all of our children
and given it to our neighbors, without a single
failure. All children are fond of it. We give
the conserve to them on a piece of bread or in
any other way. I have used it myself in simi
lar complaints with success —it is a very grate
ful relish in such cases. Immediately on the
discovery of this valuable property in the rhu
barb, I sat about making provision for a full
•upplyof plants for my family, and hope never
again to be without it. 1 have also made such
arrangements as will enable me to supply roots
to those who may want them next fall. They
can be sent to any distance with facility. I am,
air, yours, respectfully.
' GIDEON B. SMITH.
We strongly recommend the culture of this
plant to our readers —there is little or no diffi
culty in raising it. Our success this year has
been more complete than the last, and we pro
pose giving an account of the experiment at the
dose of the season.
FROM THE SEW.YORK PARKER.
PRESERVATION OF BACON.
Midulksex, July 9, 1832.
Sir,—»ln the Genesee Fanner of June 30th,
1 notice an article on the preservation of bacon,
by means of charcoal, which meets my views
perfectly. Charcoal is certainly the best an
ti-ceptic that we know of, and I think if run
through a tanner’s bark mill, would be reduced
about fine enough. An inch or two of the coal,
laid in the bottom of a cask or box, and the hams
laid on it iu close order, then covered with char
coal, then another layer of bacon, covered in
like manner, and so proceeding with layer after
layer, covering each with charcoal, I think it,
will be perfectly secure against any rancidity
taint or worms. Yours, «kc. R. M. W.

(During the ensuing session of the Legislature.)
The Journal
Os the Proceedings of the Legislature of Geo.
*i«ui History of the Times ,
BY M. D. J- SLADE, OF MACOX, Ga.
“ Ltgt totum, set ns Metre totum." —“Read all, if you
would know all.”
THE people of Georgia are much in want of a me
dium of intelligence which will promptly transmit
to them the “ Proceedings” of their Legislature. M c
are not only generally, but individually concerned in all
acts of legislation, because these acts involve personal
as well as political rights, between which there ex
ist* a most intimate connexion. It is the interest then,
j of every man in the community to be timely acquainted
with the action of our representatives upon these rights.
This it a desideratum —to supply which the Jocrnal is
intended. At the present we labor under much incon
venience for the want of it. For near, and sometimes
more than three months after the expiration of the Ses
sion, the Laws of the State, with a few exceptions, are
as a “ sealed Book* to the great mass of the people ; and
frequently, such are the injurious effects produced by
tins dclev, that men have been known, who, in obe
dience to a preceding, have actually violated a subse
quent law which had been reversed or modified—not
knowing that a new had been submitted for an old law.
In addition to the entire proceedings of the Legisla
ture, the Journal and History, will contain the gener
al intelligence of the day, and its interest will be in
creased by faithful reports of the transactions of the
important Redress Convention of Georgia, which con
templates sitting in Milledgevillc, the ensuing session.
The Debates in the Convention, as well as those in the
Legislature, will be regularly and correctly reported ;
for which purpose arrangements arc making with a ca
pable and experienced Stenographer.
The Jocks al and History or the Times, w ill be pub
lished daily, and the Legislative and Conventional Pro
ceedings of each day laid in extenso before the public on
the subsequent morning, and immediately transmitted
to any part of the State to which the paper may be or
dered. .
The large and interesting niasi of information which
this Publication will contain, and the great expense
which must be incurred to carry it into operation will
require a liberal patronage, and such a patronage the
editor flatters himself will be extended to him.
It is unnecessary to enlarge on the convenience and
important utility of such a publication to members of the
Legislature, in enabling them to ascertain immediately
the precise state of any measure in which they are in
terested and to keep their constituents advised of the
progress of public business, without the abstraction ot
lime and attention from their special duties, expended
in letter writing.
Terms.— The Journal and History of the Tunes will
be publiscd daily with a nrw type, by machinery, to be
expressly procured for the purpose and on good paper,
and will be put to subscribers at the price ot In t Dol*
lars per session, payable on the reception ot the first
number.
Hr Those to whom subscription lists will be sent are
respectfully asked to lend their exertions and influence
to the undertaking, and to make a return ot any subscri
bers which may be obtained, by the 10/A day of Octo
ber. They arc particularly requested to do so, that the
Editor may be enabled to make the proper arrangements,
and to furnish promptly the first numbers to each sub
scriber.
M. D. J. SLADE
Will continue to publish the Macon Advertiser, as
heretofore ; and assures his patrons and the public that
so far from the interference nr conflict of the above pub
lication with the interest and management of the Ad
vertiser, that he designs and believes that the former
will greatly improve the latter. The Advertiser shall
lack for none of that attention, which the editor flatters
himself has entitled it to the kind and cheering patron,
age which has been so liberally extended to it.
The Advertiser will continue to be published weekly
in the summer and tri-wcckly in the winter, at the
price of Five Dollars per annum, payable in advance.
Land and Gold Region Lists of the Drawing.-the
addition to the Legislative and Conventional Proceed
ing, the JOURNAL will contain Official Reports of the
Drawing of the Land and Gold lottery Regions, which
will commence, it is presumed, about the commencement
of the sitting of the Legislature. Should the Lottery
however have commenced its drawing previous to that
period, such days as may have drawn, will also be pub
lished, so that individuals interested will have cntiie
Lists from beginning to end.
O’ The fraternity are respectfully asked to publish
the above, which, as heretofore, will be reciprocated ;
and to each paper a copy of the Journal will be regular
ly and gratuitously sent.

LABORING SCHOOL.
IN answer to the many enquiries made, the principal
begs leave to state, that this Institution is full and in
a flourishing condition. He is convinced by the experi
ment that schools of this kind will succeed and prosper.
Some difficulties were anticipated from the novelty of
the thing and from a want of firmness in parents ; but if
they will do their duty, no fears need be entertained about
the success and usefulness of such establishments.
Mr. Enos B. Myer, educated in a school of this kind,
(and who conducted this during the Principal’s absence
to New-York) is engaged as a permanent assistant : on
account of this arrangement, eight more students may be
admitted after Ist of July, the commencement of the se
cond term. By this date, more commodious buildings
will be arectcd.
The terms and regulations arc as heretofore, viz :
1. The course of studies to occupy three years.
2. Each student to labor three hours per day.
3. Board, washing and tuition for Ist year, §9O ; for
the 2d §75; for the 3d §SO. Payment half yearly in
advance.
There will be a short vacation of about a week com
mencing on the 23d July. The public examination will
be held earlyssin November, of which due notice will be
given and then a vacation till January.
Letters, post-paid, not otherwise, making applications
for admission or inquiries in regard to the School, will re
ceive attention.

PROSPECTUS
OF THE
HAWKIMSTILLE adtocatb.
The Undersigned design, as early as a
number of subscribe rs can be obtained, to publisn
in the town of Hawkinsville, Pulaski county, Georgia, a
paper under the above title. ~..* r
In the whole Southern Circuit, although it extends ov«r
far more territory than any other in the State, there is
not printed a single paper. Surely this Circuit has not
resolved to be behind every other in the Mate, m ilia
march of improvement! While, then, the °
every oiher Circuit, have the pleasure of receiving oy
each mail, papers printed within their limits, may me
not, with reason, indulge the sanguine expectation, mat
our citizens, as also those of other Circuits, (to whose
papers they contribute a liberal patronage) will bounti
fullv aidin' the support of this attemrt to establish a pa
per’in this place, and contribute much to it* circulation .
Hawkinsville has been so rapid in its growth, and has
already risen to so much importance, m a commercial
points of view, as now to render it the most important
town in the Southern Circuit. What place, then, could
or would he more suitable fer the establishing and sup
porting a paper?
It has become the fashion, for those who make propo
sals for editing a paper, to declare their politico creed ,
that all mar know by their colours, on wlnen siu* they
will fight. ’ The undersigned, without censuring such
example, will follow it in part only. They, therefore
declare themselves to be native Georgians, <x that while
they design to steer clear of extremes, they no less ler
vently hope to be ever found on the side of the peo
ple, the true democracy of the State. 1 rudence
might require them to stop here : but they feel con
strained to go farther. The various and momentous
questions, which agitate to the very centre, our po
litical connexion as sovereign States, and the tear,
ful encroachments of the United States’ Government
(more especially as manifested by the late decision of
its Supreme Court,) which like some dreadlul yawning
gulph, threaten the most awful and ruinous consequences,
demand of every true patriot and advocate ot his coun
trv, to be at his post, and like the faithful watchman,
to tell when all’s w ell, or every hope is past. W ith what
disinterestedness and deep devoteduess have not the
Southern people ever been attached to a just and equit
able union of the States ? How many concessions, and
wh u convincing sacrifices have they not made, and will
they not even yet make, as peace offerings upon the al
tar' of so; ! harmony! But it has been justly said,
that a cold, liculating, selfish policy, like the Israe i»es’
rod, is swallowing up every better feeling, and calling
upon all to fall down and worship this “golden image,
as he only true and living Diety. Whatever maybe the
course of others, while the undersigned truly hope, that:
our excellent Constitution, our once happy Union, and
the high destiny to which, under happy auspices, it may
aspire, will not merely we like some golden age, as a song
in the memory of posterity; they trust in the fervor of
their hearts to be found ever contributing their poor
and humble mite to resist encroachment, in whatever
shape it may come, and oppression under whatever co
lors disguised, till every hope, shall expire in the last
entrenchment of their country.
Perhaps they ought to avow, their deep devotion to
the political principles ot Washington and Jefferson,
and the unblemished principles ot those who have
been an ornament and glory to their country ; and more
especially their cordial and warm support of the Hero
whp has gathered never dying laurels, both in the fielc
and in the cabinet. But professions alone are Vain. The
undersigned hope to be judged of by their acts*
As to the politics of the State, amid chance of
chance, or the violence and heat ot party dissentions,
they faithfully promise with calmness and coolness, to
discuss the measures of each and every party, in the
spirit of candor. And whether praise or censure be their
object, they will never follow any other light but that of
truth—they will never have any other guide, but that
of honor. \V r ith these in view’, they will hold as dust
in the balance any unjust or unmeaning censure.
No inconsiderable portion of their paper shall he de
voted to general literature, with whatever may im
prove, adorn or refine the mind ; and more especially
te Agriculture ; on the successful improvement in which,
freed from burdensome taxation, mainly depend the
happiness, prosperity and glory of the Southern country.
THE HAWKINSVILLE ADVOCATE will be pub
lished weekly at Three Dollars per annum, if paid in ad
vance ; or Three Dollars and Fifty Cents at the end of
the year.

GOLD and LAM) MAP
OF THE COUNTY OF CHEROKEE.
IHAV 3 now in the hands of the Engraver, which will
be completed by the first of November next, a gene
ral and accurate Map of the Cherokee Country, drawn
from the returns of the District Surveyors. Owing to the
great number of Lots, into which the country has been
divided, particularly the Gold Region, and the large di
mansion of the sheet it will require, to have all those
numbers distinctly and accurately laid dowui, I have tho’t
it advisable to form the Map into separate and detached
Sections; which I designate as Gold Map t Land Map.
All the Land Districts in the Territory are laid down
on one sheet, and constitute a distinct and separate Map
by themselves.
The districts reserved and surveyed as Gold Districts,
are divided into three sheets or Maps. Districts No. 1,
2,3, 4, 5,11,12,13, 14, and 15, of the first section, form
the first Map.
Districts No. 1,2, 3, 14, 15,16, 17,18,19, 20,21, and
22, of the second section, form the second Map.
Districts No. 1,2, 3,4, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, and 22, of
the third section, and Districts No. 1,2, 3, 16, and 17,
of the fourth section, form the third Map. On these
Maps will be found each District in the Territory, with
every square Lot of Land and Fraction distinctly laid
dowm and numbered—ail Mountains, Rivers, Creeks,
Branches, Roads, Ferries, «Scc. are correctly and faithful
ly delineated.
The Map wll be handsomely engraved, printed on
strong silk paper, colored and put up in morocco cases
at the following prices, viz :
Land Map, §5 00
Gold Maps S 3 50 each, or forthe three, $lO 00
For Gold and Land Maps, comprising the
whole Territory, sl3 00
Persons desirous of obtaining this valuable Map will
do well to inform the publisher soon, as but a limited
number can be obtained during the drawing of the Lot
tery.
All communications addressed to the subscriber in
Milledgeville, Ga. ( postage paid of course,) will meet
with prompt attention. ORANGE GREEN.
Milledgeville, August 23, 1832.
CT Editors in the State of Georgia, who are disposed
to publish the above two or three months, shall receive

medicinal properties are admirably adapted to the allevi
ation and removal of the numerous bodily complaints in
cident to the summer season. We doubt whether the
whole Pharmacopac offers a more innocent and effective
remedy, or a more pleasant and palateable preventive.
Having seen its virtues tested in cases of severe head
ache and threatened Cholera Morbus, we can conscienti
ously testify-concoming Its utility.”— Ed.N. Y. Evening

BUTLER’S EFFERVESCENT MAGNESIAN
APPERIENT relieves Dyspepsia, or indigestion, nerv.
ous debility, giddiness, headache, acidity of the stomach,
and habitual costiveness. It is more convenient than the
Seidlitz Powders, and the dose may be so regulated as to
perform a gentle or powerful purgation; its portablenese
and the convenience with which it is mixed, recommend
it to the attention of all travellers, particularly those vis
iting or residing in hot climates.
