The times appear, for several reasons, to de

of popular government may no longer brood,

j CAREY’S LIBRARY OF CHOICE
LITER ATI RE.
TO say that this is a reading age, implies a
desire for instruction, and the means to {
i gratify that desire, on the first point, all are a
' greed ; on the second, there is diversity both
of opinion and practice. We have newspa
jpers, magazines, reviews, in fine, pamphlets of.
all sizes, on nearly all subjects, which have
! severally their classes of readers and support 1
ots. Aml yet copious us are. these means oi j
intellectual supply, more are still needed. In
addition to the reviews of the day and passing
notice.'} of books, the people in large numbers,.
' in all p..rts of our great republic crave the pos
session oi the books themselves, and details,
beyond mere passing allusion, oT the progress
oi discovery in art and science. But though it
be easy to ascertain and express tiieir wants, ii i
jis not so easy to gratify them. Expense, dis
tance iroin tin emporium of literature, c ngrossl
ing occupations which prevent personal appli
cation oi even messages to libraries and book
sellers, are so many causes to keep people a
j way from tin* feast oi reason and the enjoyment
lof the covered literary aliment It is the ob
ject of the publishers of the Library to obviate
i these diilieuljies, and to enable every individ
j iial, at a small cost and without any personal
I ettort, to obtain for his ou n use and that of bis
j iavored friends or family, valuable works, com
! plete, on all the branches of useful and popular
literature, ami Unit in a iorin adapted to the

I'. E. Smith s new Brick Machine, invented by
Calvin Waterman, now in operation in tins
place, take pleasure in recommending it to the
public. The fact of its performance is its besj
recommendation. We timed it. and tind that
with new moulds and inexperienced hands, it
made at the rate of two thousand three huud
red and sixty-eight brick per hour. By mould
ing' ten hours in a day, it would therefore turn
out twenty-throe thousand six hundred per day.
It requires six boys to bear olf. and four to sand

men. Thus ioiirtcen hands are sullicicnt to
make the above named quantity of the most
beautiful brick per day.

GR. GARRETSON, has removed his

j Gardgn Seed Wharehouse, to Flushing, L. 1.,
; New York, where he intends dealing exten
sively in the above business, and will be at all
! time* enabled to furnish dealers aud others with
every article in his line of business. And as
the greater part of Iris stock of Seeds is raised
j 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
j being tested to his own satisfaction, tiieir accu
racy and vitality are expressly Warranted.
The vending of Seeds is a business deserv
ing much greater attention from the mercan
| tilc'coiurnunity than is at present bestowed up
lon it. There is scarcely a farmer or planter
who would not purchase an assortment of su
-1 perior Garden Seeds if they could procure them
j easily. And as they yield a handsome profit,
i some explanations may be requisite in regard to
' making sales, Ac. They are usually supplied
by the pound or bushel, and will afford a profit
l ot 1 00 per cent, or more, at the New York re
tail prices. For convenience they can he ncat
| lv papered and labelled and assorted into boxes
; (<>r put up in strong papers, thereby saving the
expense ol box) each suitable fora family gar
' den, vvliic Ii will he supplied at from Jjjtl to
—the latter being sufficient to crop a garden
!ot one acre. Or they can be put into (i 1-4 and
: I'J Id cent papers, 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 60 per cent, on the New York retail
I price's. Any one wishing to engage in the
[ vending of seeds, and not having experience,
by addressing tiie proprietor will have the ne
cessary information given, and they may feel
: confident they will be served with none but ar
ticles of the very best quality.

IT cannot lie denied tlmt tile present state nl
our country demands peculiar and well di
i reeled activity on the pari of tin* press to make
known the features of the various topic s winch
j 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 lias keen received in
i the Atlantic cities, is praiseworthy, and should
i in the end reward such persons as exert their
j ability for the successful furtherance of this cb
j jecl.
! The IMi tors and Proprietors of the Boston
Daily lierahl, convinced of the importance ol
a carelully conducted press to disseminate in
formation throughout the country, Koine weeks
l since issued the first- number of the Sr.ni
Wkkki.i tlKiiAt.ii ami Staii, 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, 'i ills paper is made up from the
Daily Herald with such additional matter, in
tiie shape of stork s, legends, poetry, statements
of tin' markets, and such information respecting
sales as may be deemed advantageous to the
yeomanry of the land.
Tne 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 the
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
dnv and Friday morning, and mailed oil the
night previous in order to ensure its speedy
transmission by the mails.
The price is Two Dollars a year payable in
advance : S'-’.'Jo in three months; s2,fit) in six
months; .Si! at the end of the year. The best
method to ensure the reception of the paper is
to enclose ts’d in a letter addressed to the Pro
