AND GARDENERS.
Gt R. GARRETSON, has removed his
r. wholesale and retail Agricultural and
Garden Seed Wharehouse, to Flushing, L. 1.,
i New York, where lie intends dealing exten
sively in the above business, and will be at all
times enabled to furnish dealers and others with
every article in his line of business. And as
the greater part of his stock of Seeds is raised
under his personal attention or direction, or
where it is necessary to import from Europe, !
they are procured from the most respectable
Seed establishments there, and their qualities (
being tested to bis own satisfaction, their accu- |
racy and vitality are expressly warranted.
The vending of Seeds is a business deserv
ing much greater attention from the mercan
tile community than is at present bestowed up
on it. There is scarcely a farmer or planter
who would not purchase an assortment of su
perior Garden Seeds if they could procure them ]
easily. And as they yield a handsome profit, !
; some explanations may he requisite in regard to
ill; ik :ng sales, Am. They are usually supplied
by the pound or bushel, and will afford a profit
iof IIMI jier cent, or more, at the New York re
' tail prices. For convenience they can lie neat
ly papered and labelled and assorted into boxes
(or put up in strong papers, thereby saving the
expense of box) each suitable fora family gar
-1 ileii, which will be supplied at from jjil to SJ.">
[ —the latter being sutlicient to crop a garden
of one acre. Or they can he put into (> 1-4 and
I- l-‘i cent jiapers, neatly labelled, and assort
ed suitable for a retail dealer, each of which by
the quantity will be charged so as to allow a
profit of 80 jier cent, oil the New York retail
prices. Any one wishing to engage in the
vending of seeds, and not having experience,
by addressing the proprietor will have the ne
cessary information given, and they may feel
confident they will he served with none but ar
t:el* sos the very best quality.
The Proprietor has further to state, that he
is enabled to furnish all kinds of Books on Ag
riculture, Horticulture, Floriculture. Aboricul
ture, Rural Economy, «*tc. «.Ve. Also. Agri
gnltural Implements of Husbandry and Garden
Tools of every description. Also, Fruit and

MULBERRIES FOR SILK WORMS.
50,000 PLANTS of tile Chinese Mulberry
or Mmvs inulliaiul'.is. for sale. Os all the va
rieties of Mulberries for silk, this apjiears most
eminently entitled to preference, and since its
introduction into France seems destined to re
place every where the common White Mulber
ry for the nourishment of silk worms, such is
its superiority over all others. The tree is
beautiful and of a rapid growth, and will thrive
well in almost any situation, and a few years
are sufficient to raise considerable fields of them
in full vigor, sufficient to support an immense
number of silk worms. The raising of silk is
as easy as the raising of wheat and much less
laborious. For a number of years past it has
been a regular and profitable employ incut of
many ol'tlie fanners of Connecticut, during the
early part of the summer, and is emphatically
a business of the farmer—of the cottage—a
j simple labor, in which females and children
who do not essentially aid in suppoiTmg a fam
ily may turn their services to profit. Every
family of the most limited means can raise the
j mulberry and produce cocoons, and fora trifle
can procure a pamphlet which will give them
the necessary information of reeling, Ac. The
plants can be packed so as to he transported to
any part of the Union and will he furnished in
quantities lo suit purchasers, and at very mod
erate rates. Nov. 11>

THE HERALD AND STAR.
IT cannot be denied that the present state ol
our country demands peculiar and well di
rected activity on the part of the press to make
known the features ot the various topics which
are now agitating the various portions of the
national confederacy. To supply, at a low
price, the inland towns with information, at a
little delay only, after it has been received in
the Atlantic cities, is praiseworthy, and should
in tin* end reward such persons as exert their
ability for IheAucccsslul lurtherance of this ob
ject.
The Editors and Proprietors of the Boston
Daily Herald, convinced of the importance ol
a, caretully conducted press to disseminate in
formation throughout the country, some weeks
since issued the first number of the Semi
\\ kf.ki.y Herald and Star, which they have,
found to be suitable to the wants of the inland
community, as it furnishes over one hundred
newspapers in a year, at the very low price ol
two dollars. This paper is made up from the
Daily Herald with such additional niuttor, in
the shape of stories, legends, poetry, statements
of the markets, and such information respecting
sales as may he deemed advantageous to the
yeomanry of the land.
The peculiarity of the Herald and Star will
he found to be in the fact that while it is not
engaged in party politics, it reserves to itselt
the liberty of speaking boldly and openly on
every subject which concerns the weal of tlr
whole country—and summons to aid, besides
the constant supervision of the Editors, valua
ble assistants, who are industriously and hour
ly exerting themselves to give strength and a
bility to their various departments.
The Herald and Star is published every Tues
day and Friday morning, and mailed on the
night previous in order to ensure its speedy
transmission by the mails.
The price is Two Dollars a year payable in
advance ; .83.37) in three months; si3,7>o in six
months; §3 at the end of tlie year. The best
method to ensure the reception of the paper is
to enclose $2 in a letter addressed to the Pro
prietors. HARRINGTON A CO.

Such a work is offered to the public from a
firm conviction of its necessity and importance;
and the editor has only to regret that abler
hands have not undertaken to accomplish so
desired an object as the advancement of Litera
ture in the South, before him. To effect which
will be his constant and unerring aim. The
Lditor has received the assurance of assistance
from many, upon whom he relies, with a pleas
ing confidence, that himself nor the jiublic,
through him, will be disappointed in their ex
pectations of its character and success.
We intend that our paper shall he a faithful
vehicle of general News. The cause of the
South, will be its cause, and the advancement
of her interest its chief aim and desire. Asa
paper, it will espouse no party ; the important
affairs of Government, however, will not be
suffered to pass unnoticed—and all sensible,
judicious communications on this subject, pro
vided they are free from party spirit, will re
ceive particular attention.

usual variety of our columns. Where it may
be expedient we will accompany the engrav

history, as may be of interest.
We shall begin the publication as soon as we
get several engravings from the hands of the
artists, who are now at work upon them. On
