To leroltants, Agricwlf ursts, and gardeners. GR. GARRETSON, lms removed his • wholesale and retail Agricultural und Garden Seed Wharehouse, toElushing. L. 1., New York, where he 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 tinder 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 his own satisfaction, their accu racy and vitality are expressly warranted. The vending of Seeds is a business deserv ing milch greater attention from the mercan- 1 tile community than is at present bestowed up on it. There is sc a reel} - a farmer or planter who would not purchase an assortment ot su- j perior Garden Seeds if they could procure them easily. And as they yield a handsome profit, some explanations may be requisite in regard to J making sales. *c. They are usually supplied by the pound or bushel, and will afford a profit of 100 per cent, or more, at the New York re tail prices. For convenience they car. he 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 den, which will be supplied at from jftl to $23 —the latter being sufficient to crop a garden of one acre. Or they can be put into 0 1-1 and 12 1-2 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 u profit of til) per cent, on 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 no-, Pessary information given, and they may feel confident they will be served with none but ar- j tides of the very best quality. The Proprietor lias further to state, that In is enabled to furnish all k inds of Rooks on Ag riculture, Horticulture, Floriculture, Aboricul ture. Rural Economy, Ar. &c. Also, Agri cultural Implements of Husbandry and Garden Tools of every description. Also, Fruit and Ornamental Trees and Herbaceous Flowering Plants, Roses and Green House Plants of a very great variety ; all of which can be packed so as to be transported to any part of tin- I'nitcd States, West Indies or elsewhere. Great at tention has been paid to obtaining both from foreign countries and at home, the finest agri- , cultural seeds, all of which can he furnished in large quantities, and where the purchase is made for cash a discount will be allowed. A liberal credit will be given where a good under standing is established. There will be no dif ficulty in arranging this point to mutual con venience, und on this, and every other subject, the suggestions nf correspondents will receive the fullest consideration. i MULBERRIES FOR SILK WORMS. 60,000 PLANTS of the Chinese Mulberry or Morus multicaulis, for sale. Os all the va-' rieties of Mulberries for silk, tins appears most eminently entitled to preference, and since its introduction into France seems destined to re- j place every where the common White Mulber- | ry for the nourishment of silk worms, such is j its superiority over all others. The tree is | beautiful aud 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 inline use number of silk worms. The raising of silk is j as easy as the raising of wheat and much less j laborious. For a number of years past it has been a regular and profitable employment of; many of the farmers of Connecticut, during the j 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 supporting u fam ily may turn their services to profit. Every! family of the most limited means can raise the ; mulberry' and produce cocoons, and for a t ri ll< - i can procure a pamphlet which will give them I the necessary' information of reeling. Arc. The j plants can be packed r.o as to be transported to j any part of the Uniou anu willin' furnished in , quantities to suit purchasers, and at very mod erate rates. Nov. 1G to I’lsi.vre-iKN.

A i\c» Advertisement, 1 .2 .Xew Year, and a .Yew Inducement, for sub scribing to the Weekly Messenger! THE cheapest and decidedly the moat pop ( ular Family Newspaper in the U States, , with a circulation of many thousand subscrib ers The American Weekly Messenger is 1 published every Wednesday, on beautiful white ! paper, of the largest class, at §2 per annum, or ( ten snbscriptfons for $lO. t Its contents are adapted to the wants of the ' Farmer, Mechanic, Tradesman, Agriculturist, Merchant and Manufacturer. This Journal was commenced on the first of January last, and. without any previous effort to herald its success, went into immediate and rapid circulation. Such was the unprecedent ed popularity which attended its projection that, in about six months from the period it was first issued, not less than fifteen thousand : names were embraced on its subscription lists! | which have been ever since constantly and i rapidly increasing, and now bid fair to super cede in cxlent and stability every other pub lication which has existed in the literary world. It is generally conceded that the contents of the Messenger embraces as much origimal matter as any other periodical of the present day. The diffusion of useful and wholesome ! information, with a view to the cultivation of a | correct knowledge of Polite Literature, is the : chief object at which it aims. Arrangements have been entered into, by which the publish er will be assisted in the ed.torujl department, by the talents of three or four gentlemen of i distinguished abilities—and it is intended to [introduce several important improvements, | which will bespeak additional popularity for i its columns. j As the character and leading features of this : Journal are well known throughout the United ’ States, it will be superfluous to enter into a i recital ol the same. Tile season is approach l ing, however, when the reading public are ex ! pectcd to make their selections lor the next ! year, and we deem it advisable, therefore, to i lurnish a brief and explicit statement of our j terms, which we hope will prove satisfactory, ; and be implicitly observed : I A ten dollar bill, forwarded by mail, postage jiaid, will pay for ten copies of the Messenger lor one year ! A five dollar bill, forwarded by ! mail, postage paid, will pay for four copies for i one year! Two dollars, paid in advance, is the price of an individual subscription for one year One dollar, in advance, will pay for a single subscription for six months only. A five dollar note will pay one year’s sub scription to the Weekly' Messenger and also the Gentleman's Magazine, edited by IV. E. Burton, Esq. O’ Remittances from Clubs, to be entitled to the full advantages of the liberal terms here offered, must be made in sums of five’s aud ten’s of current Bank notes—any lesser u liiount, forwarded by mail, will be classed 11- long with individual subscriptions. A premium of FORTY NOY’ELS, neatly and appropriately bound, containing the pro ductions of many of the celebrated writers a;f the present day, willbe presented to any Agent forwarding forty subscribers, and the pay in advance,as heretofore stipulated. At the expiration of the term subscribed for and paid by clubs, the paper will invariably be discontinued, unless the advance money is for warded previous to that time, and the subscrip tions renewed, in tbe manner above specified. It will be a great saving to the publisher, and facilitate the early mailing of the paper, it the individual forwarding the sum required for four, or ten. or more subscribers, when they are located together, will allow the package to be addressed to the Postmaster, or some one_a mong themselves, who being made acquainted with the names-of the Club, can as readily d.s tribute them as if directed separately. All letters innst be post paid, or they will not he taken out of the office. Address CHAR LK S ALEXA NDE R. Athenian Buildings,Franklin Place, Philadel’a.

By mould ing ten hours in a day, it would therefore turn out twenty-three thousand six hundred per day. It requires six boys to bear off, and four to sand the moulds, Ac.—together with four grown men. Thus fourteen hands are sufficient to make the above named quantity of tlie most beautiful brick per dav. JOHN SPRINGER. DAVID F. WILSON. I have witnessed the performance of Mr T. L. Smith's new Brick-making Machine, just p it into operation in this place: and have no hesitation in pronouncing it a great and useful improvement on any other method of brick making 1 have ever seen, both as to the quality of the brick and expedition in making. By re quest 1 timed the machine for half an hour ; the result of that trial shows that with 14 hands the machine will turn out of beautiful arid well tempered brick, 2,30 c in one hour, or about 40 to the minute.

PROSPECTUS OF THE [SOUTHERN LITERARY MESSENGER riIHIS is a monthly Magazine devoted cliief- J- ly to Literature, but occasionally find ing room also for articles that fall within the sc: pe of Science ; and not professing an en tire disdain ol tasteful selections, though its matter lias been, as it will continue to be in the main, original. Party Politics and controversial Theology. as far as possible,are zealously excluded. They are sometimes so blended with discussions if, literature or in "moral science, otherwise unob jectionable, as to gain admittance for the sake of the more valuable matter to which they ad here : but whenever that happens, they are in cidental, only; not primary. They are dross tolerated only because it cannot well be ser ved from the sterling ore wherewith it is incor porated. Reviews, and Critical Notices, occupy their due space in the work : and it is the Ed itor's aim that they should have a threefold tendency—to eonvey, in a condensed form, such valuable truths or interesting incidents as are embodied in the works reviewed, —to direct -the reader's attention to books that deserve to be read,—and to warn him against wasting time and money upon that large number, which mer it only to be burned. In this age of publica tions that by their variety and multitude dis tract and overwhelm every undiscriminating student, impartial criticism, governed by the views just mentioned, is one /of the most inestimable and indispensable of auxiliaries, to him who docs wish to discriminate. Essays, and Tales, having in view utility or amusement, or both— Historical sketch es—and Reminiscences of events too minute for History, yet elucidating it, aad heighten ing its interest.—may be regarded as forming the staple of the work. And of indigenous Poetry enough is published—sometimes of no mean strain—to manifest and to Cultivate the growing poetical taste and talents of our coun try. The times appear, for several reasons, to de mand such a work—and not one alone, but many. The public mind is feverish and irri tated still, from recent political strifes The soft, assuasive influence of Literature is need ed, to allay that lever, and soothe that irrita tion. Vice and folly are rioting abroad :—They should be driven by indignant rekuke. or lash ed by ridicule, into their fitting haunts. Igno ranee lords it over an immense proportion of our people : Every spring should Le set in motion, to arouse the enlightened, and to in crease their number ; so that the great enemy of popular government may no longer brood, like a portentous cloud, over the destinies of Our country. And to accomplish all these ends, what more powerful agent can be employed, than a periodical, on the plan of the Messenger; if that plan be but carried out in practice ? The South peculiarly requ res such an a gent. In .all the Union, south of Washington, there are but two Literary periodicals ! North ward of that city, there are probably at least twenty-five or thirty ! Is this contrast justified by the wealth, the leisure, the native talent, or the actual literary taste, of the Southern peo ple, compared with those of the Nothern ? No : for in wealth, talents, and taste, we may justly claim at least an equality with our breth ren ; and a domestic institution exclusively our own,beyond all doqbt affords us, if we choose, twice tlie leisure for reading and wri ting, which they enjoy. It was from deep sense of this local want, that the word Southern was engrafted on the name oi this periodical : and not with any de sign to nourish local prejudices, or to advocate supposed local interests. Far from any such thought, it is the Editor’s fervent wish, to see the North and South bound endearingly togeth er forever, in the silken bands of mutual kind ness and affection. Far from mediating hostil ity to the North, he has already drawn, and he hopes hereafter to draw, much of his choicest matter thence : and happy indeed will he deem himself, should his pages, by making each re gion know the other better, contribute in any essential degree to dispel the lowering clouds that now threaten the peace of both, and to brighten and strengthen the sacred tics of fa ternal love. The Southern Literaf.y Messenger has now reached the Kith No. of its third volume. How lar it has acted out the ideas here uttered, is not for the Editor to say. lit* believes, how ever, that it falls not further short of then), than human weakness usually makes Practice fall short of Theory. No subscription will he received for less than a Volume, and must either begin with tlie cur rent one—or may commence with Vol. IV, the first number of which will be issued on the Ist January, ltiflti.— The price is $5 per Volume, which must he paid in all cusesutlhc time of subscribing. This is particularly adverted to now, to avoid niisapprelfdiß|ien, or'future mis understanding—as no order will hereafter be attended to, unless accompi£ned with the price of subscription. THOMAS W. WHITE. Richmond, Va. Oct. ]S37. 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 of 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 the end reward such persons as exert their ability for the successful furtherance of this ob ject. The Editors and Proprietors of the Boston Daily Herald, convinced of the importance ol a carefully conducted press to disseminate in formation throughout the country, some weeks since issued the first number of the Semi Weekly 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 tlie very low price oi two dollars This paper is made up from the Daily Herald witlj such additional matter, in the shape of stories, legends, poetry, statements ol the markets, and such information respecting sales as may be deemed advantageous to the yeomanry of the land. The peculiarity of the Herald and Star will be found to be in the fact that while it is not engaged in party politics, it reserves to itselt the liberty of speaking boldly aud openly on every subject which concerns the weal of the whole country—and summons to aid, besides the constant supervision of tlie 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 Tucs] 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 ; $2,25 in tlfree months; $2,50 in six months ; $3 at the end of the year. The best method to ensure the reception of the paper is to enclose $2 in a letter addressed to the Pro prietors * HARRINGTON ACO
