To .Herclmn(«, Agricultural*, AND GARDENERS. ' GR. GARRET9QN. hat removed hi* • wholesale and retail Agricultural and Garden Seed Wharehouse. to Flushing. L. 1., New York,'.where he intends dealing exten sively in the above basinets, and will be at all timet enabled to furnish dealers and other* with every article in liis line of business. And as the greater part of his stock of Seeds is raised under hit 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 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 ot su perior Garden Seeds if they could procure them j easily. And as they yield a handsome profit, j some explanations may be requisite in regard to making sales, &.c. They arc usually supplied bv the pound or bushel, and will afford a profit of 1(H) per cent, or more, at Ihe New York re tail prices. For convenience they can he neat ly papered and labelled and assorted into boxes (or j>ut up in strong papers, thereby saving the expense of box) each suitable fora family gar den, which will be supplied at front $1 to $25 —the latter being sufficient to crop a garden of one acre. Or they can he put into (i 1-4 and 12 1-2 cent pipers, neatly labelled, and assort ed suitable for a retail dealer, each of which by the quantity will be charged so ns to allow a profit of 80 per cent, on the New York retail prices. Aliy 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 be served with none but ar ticles of 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, Ac Ac. 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 the United States, West Indies or elsewhere. Great at tention has been paul to obtaining both from foreign countries and at home, the finest agri cultural seeds, all of which can he furn ished 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 he no dif ficulty in arranging this point to mutual con venience, and on this, and every other subject, the suggestions of correspondents will receive the fullest consideration. MULBERRIES FOR SILK WORMS. 60,000 PLANTS of the Chinesp Mulberry ©r Morns multicaulis, for sale. Os all the va rieties of Mulberries for silk, this appears 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 i beautiful and of a rapid growth, and will thrive . well in almost any situation, and a few years j are sufficient to raise considerable fields ol tlivin in full vigor, sufficient to support an immense number of silk worms. The raising of silk is j as easy as the raising of wheat and much less laborious. For a number of years past it has been a regular and profitable employment ol many of the farmers ofConnccticut, during the early part of the summer, and is emphatically j a business of the farmer—of the cottage—a simple labor, in which females and children who do not essentially aid in supporting a lam- ! ily may turn their services to profit. Every family of the most limited means can raise the mulberry and produce cocoons, and for a trifle can procure a pamphlet which will give them the necessary information oi reeling. Ate. The plants can be packed so as to he transported to anv part of the Uniou and will be furnished in quantities to suit purchasers, and at very mod- , crate rates. Nov. Hi TO PKI.VntRM. WHITE <* WM.

TO say that this is a reading age, implies a desire for instruction, and the means to gratify that desire, on the first point, all are a j greed ; on the second, there is diversity both jof opinion and practice. We have newspa | pors, magazines, reviews, in fine, pamphlets of I all sizes, on nearly all subjects, which have j severally their clusses-of readers and support j ers. And yet copious as are . these means ol , intellectual supply, more are still needed. In i addition to the review sos the day and passing notices of books, the people in large numbers, in all parts of our great republic crave the pos session of the books themselves, and details, beyond mere passing allusion, of the progress of discovery in art and science. But though it be easy to ascertain and express their wants, it is not so easy to gratify them. Expense, dis tance from the emporium of literature, engross ing occupations which prevent personal appli cation of even messages to libraries and book sellers, are so many causes to keep people al way from the feast of reason and the enjoyment of the covered literary aliment It is the oh jeet of the publishers of the Library to obviate ' these diiliculjics, and to enable every individ ! uni, at a small cost and without any personal j etl'ert, to obtain for his own use and that of his j favored friends or family, valuable works, com- , piete, on all the branches of useful and popular j literature, and that in a form adapted to the 1 comfort of the reader. The charm of variety, as far as it is compati bie with morality and good taste, will be held constantly in view in conducting the Library, to fill the pages of which the current literature of Great Britain, in all its various departments of biography, history, travels, novels and poe try. shall he freely put under contribution.— With perchance occasional exceptions, it is in tended to give entire the work which shall be selected for publication. When circumstances authorize the measure, recourse will be had to the literary stores of Continental Europe, and translations made from French, Italian or Gor man. as the case mav bo. Whilst the body of the work will be a reprint, or at times a translation of entire volumes, the cover will exhibit the miscellaneous character of a magazine, and consist of sketches of men and tilings, and notices of novelties in literature and the arts throughout the civilized world.— A full and regular supply of the literary, month ly and hebdomadal journals of Great Britain and Ireland, in addition to home periodicals of a similar character, cannot fail to provide am ple materials for this part of our work. The resources and extensive correspondence of the publishers are the best guarantee for the continuance of the enterprize in which they are about to embark, as well as for the abun dance of the materials to give it value in the eyes of the public. As far as judicious selec tion and arrangement are concerned, readers will it is hoped, have reason to be fully satisli ed, as the editor of the Library i.j not a stran ger to them, blit has more than once obtained their favorable suffrages for his past literary efforts. TERMS. The work will be published in weekly nuin j bers, in stitched covers, each number contain ing twenty imperial octavo pages, with double columns, making two volumes annually, of more than Still octavo pages, each volume ; anil at the expiration of every six months, subscri bers will be furnished with a handsome title page and table of contents. The whole amount of matter furnished in a single year, will be e qua! to more than forty volumes of the com mon sized English duodecimo books. The pa per upon which the Library will be printed, will be of the finest quality used for book work, and of a size admirably adapted for binding.— As the type will be entirely new, and of a neat appearance, each volume when bound, will furnish a handsome as well as valuable, and not cumbrous, addition to the libraries of those who patronize the work. The price of the Library will be Five Dollars per annum, payable in advance. A commission of 20 per cent, will be allowed to agents; and any agent or postmaster, fur nishing five subscribers, and remitting the a mount of subscription, shall be entitled to the commission of 20 per cent, or a copy of the work for one year. Editors of newspapers, to whom this pros pectus is forwarded; will please insert the a hove as often as convenient, and send a copy jot their paper containing the advertisement j marked, and entitle themselves to a free ex j change for one vear.

The Lions of* P3iiladcl|»liia. THE architectural beauty of many of the PUBLIC BUILDINGS of this city is pro verbial. They have not only been the pride ol the city, but excite the attention of nil stran gers. Believing that it would be highly acccp -1 table to our numerous patrons,scattered as they ; arc from the Lakes to the Ocean, to be present ed with Splendid Illustrations, from the i hands of first rate artists—we have made ar | rragPinents to bring out a complete series.— I They will embrace a correct nm. well executed ! view of all the PUBLIC EDIFICES, of our : city anil vicinity, forming in the end a collec ! tion. that may wcll .be termed the LIONS OF j PHILADELPHIA, and which will be present j ed to our patrons, without trenching upon the usual variety of our columns. Wjiere it may I be expedient we will accompany the engrav | ings with such descriptions of size and facts of i history, as may be of interest. We shall begin the publication as soon as we got several engravings from the hands of the I artists, who are now at work upon them. On I the appearance of the first view we shall espe ; cially increase our edition of the Courier, to | supply those who may wish to obtain and pre serve these views. ! The views will also appear regularly in the PHILADELPHIA MIRROR. | ETAs a trifling expression of our regard, we 1 shall print the whole series, at their completion, upon fine white paper, in uniform style—form j ing a beautiful collection of Views, and present i them to such of our country brethren, as may ! oblige us bv an insertion of this notice A lew Advertisement, A .Yew Year, and a .Yew Inducement, for sub scribing to the Weekly Messenger! THE cheapest and decidedly the most pop ular Family Newspaper in the U Slates, with a circulation of many thousand subscrib ers The American Weekly Messenger is published every .tVednrsday, on beautiful white paper, ofthe largest class, at $2 per annum, or ten snhscriptions for $lO. 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 rapidly increasing, and now bid fair to super cede in extent and stability every other pub lication which has existed in the literary world. It is generally conceded that tlie contents of the Messenger embraces as much origimtil 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 he assisted ill the editorial department by the talents of three ■or four gentlemen of distinguished abilities—and it is intended to introduce several important improvements, which will bespeak additional popularity for its columns. As the character and leading features of this Journal are well known throughout the United States, it will be superfluous to enter into a recital ot the same. The season is approach ing, however, when the reading public are ex pected to make their selections lor the next year, and we deem it advisable, therefore, to .urnisli a brief and explicit statement of our terms, which we hope will prove satisfactory, and be implicitly observed : A ten dollar bill, forwarded by mail, postage paid, will pay for ten copies of the Messenger ibr one year! A five dollar bill, forwarded by mail, postage paid, will pay for four copies for one year 1 Two dollars, paid in advance, is Ihe 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 W. K. Burton, Esq. O’Remittances from Clubs, to he entitled to tlie full advantages of the liberal terms here offered, must be made in sums of five's and ten’s of current Bank notes—any lesser a mount, forwarded by mail, will be classed a long with individual subscriptions. A premium of FORTY NOVELS, neatly and appropriately bound, containing the pro ductions of many of the celebrated "Writers of the present day, will be presented to any Agent forwarding forty subscribers, and the pay in advance, as heretofore stipulated. At the expiration ofthe 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 the manner above specified. It will be a great saving to the publ sher. and facilitate the early mailing ofthe 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 someone a inong themselves, who being made acquainted with the names ofthe Club, can as readily dis tribute them as if directed separately. All letters mnst be postpaid, or they will not be taken out of the office. Address CHARLES ALEXANDER. Athenian Buildings,Franklin Place, Pliiladel’a. To Builder* & Contractor* THROUGHOUT GEORGIA.

I do not expect to sell a right to any one with out their first having seen the machine; but in order to afiord an idea of its value, 1 annex the following certificates, one of them signed by two of the most experienced brick masons in the Southern States. 11l my absence from Macon, the editors of the Messenger will act as my authorized agents. T L. SMITH. We having witnessed the performance of Mr T. L. Smith’s new Brick Machine, invented by Calvin Waterman, now in operation in this place, take pleasure in recommending it to the public. The fact of its performance is its best recommendation. We timed it. and find that with new moulds and inexperienced hands, it made at the rate of two thousand three liund red and sixty-eiglu brick per hour. 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 oft’, and four to sand the moulds, &c. —together with four grown men. Thus fourteen hands are sufficient to make the above named quantity of the most beautiful brick per day. JOHN SPRINGER. DAVID F. WILSON. I have witnessed the performance of Mr T. L. Smith's new Brick-making Machine, just put into operation in this place : and have no 1 hesitation in pronouncing it a great and useful 1 improvement on any other method of brick ( making I have ever seen, both as to the quality of the brick and expedition in making. By re quest I timed the machine for half an hour ; ; 1 the result of that trial shows that with 14 hands : the machine will turn out of beautiful and well j i tempered brick, 2,3(jd in one hour, or about 40 j 1 to the minute.

They are dress tolerated only because it cannot well be ser j ved from the sterling ore wherewith it is inccr ! porated. Reviews, and Critical Notices, occupy ; their due space in the work : and it is the Ed j itor's aim that they should have a threefold j tendency—to convey, in a condensed form, ! such valuable truths or interesting incidents as ( are embodied in the works reviewed, — to d.rect ; 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 tliis age of publica , turns 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, ts' him who docs icish to discriminate. Essays, and Tales, having in view utility or amusement, or both— Historic al sketch es—and Reminiscences of events too minute for History, yet elucidating it, aad heighten ing its interest, —may he regarded as forming the staple of the work. And of indigenous Poetry enough is published—sometimes of no mean strain—to manifest and to <*ultivate the j growing poetical taste and talents of our coun i trv. The times appear, for several reasons, to de mand such a work—and not one alone, but many. Tlie public mind is feverish and irri tated still, from recent political strifes The soft, assuasive influence of Literature is need ed, to allay that fever, and soothe that irrita tion. Vice and folly are riolingabroad :—They should be driven by indignant rebuke, or lash ed by ridicule, into their fitting haunts. Igno rance lords it over an immense proportion of our people Every spring should be 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 1 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 w’ealtli, talents, and taste, we may justly claim at least an equality with our breth ren ; and a domestic institution exclusively our own,beyond all doubt affords us, if wc choose, twice the 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 of 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 hoj.es hereafter to draw, much of )iis 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 ties of fa ternal love. The Southern Literary Messenger has now reached the 11,th No. of its third volume. How far it has acted out the ideas here uttered, is not tor the Editor to say. He believes, how ever. that it falls not further short of them, than human weakness usually makes Practice fall short of Theory. No subscription will be received for less than a Volume, and must either begin with the cur rent one—or may commence with Vol. IV, the first number of which will be issued on the Ist January, 1838.—The price is $5 per Volume, which must be paid in all cases at the time of subscribing. This is particularly adverted to now, to avoid misapprehension, or future mis understanding—as no order will hereafter be attended to. unless accompained with the price of subscriptioH. THOMAS W. WHITE. Richmond, Va. Oct. 1837. TIIE 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 i the Atlantic cities, is praiseworthy, and should | in the end reward such persons »s exert their ability for the successful furtherance of this ob ject. The Editors and Proprietors of the Boston Daily Ilerald, 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 1 community, as it furnishes over one liundreiL newspapers in a year, at the very low price ol [ two dollars This paper is made up from the Daily Herald with such additional matter, in j the shape of stories, legends, poetry, statements of the markets, and such information respecting i sales as may be deemed advantageous to the i yeomanry of the land. The peculiarity of the Herald and Star will j be found to be in the fact that while it is not | engaged in party politics, it reserves to itselt j the liberty of speaking boldly and openly on I 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 j lv exerting themselves to give strength and a ! bility to their various departments. I The Herald and Star is published every Tucs } day and Friday morning, and mailed on the i night previous in order to ensure its speedy , transmission by the mails. The price is Two Dollars a year payable in 1 advance ; $2.25 in three months; $2,50 in six months ; $3 at the end of the year. -The best f method to ensure the reception of the paper is to enclose $2 in a letter addressed to the Pro-- ' prietors.
