New York, where he intends dealing exten
sively in the above business, and will he »t *ll
tunes 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 front Europe,
they ere procured from the most respectable
Seed establishments there, and their qualities
being tested tohis 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 maybe requisite in regard to
making sales, -Ac. They are usually supplied
by the pound or bushel, and will afford a profit
oflOO per cent, or more, at the New York re
tail prices. For convenience they can he neat
ly papered snd 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 .‘*'l to S’du
—the latter being sullicient to crop a garden
of one acre. Or they can be pul into <> I-1 and
I*2 1-2 cent papers, neatly labelled, and assort
ed suitably for a retail dealer, each ol which by
the quantity will be charged so as to allow a
profit of 80 per cent, ou the New \ork retail
prices. Any one wishing to engage in the
vending of seeds, and not having experience,
by addressing the proprietor will have the ne- ,
ressary 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 lie ,
is enabled to furnish all kinds of Hooks on Ag
riculture, Horticulture, Floriculture. Aborictil
ture, Rural Economy, Ac. Ac. Also, Agri-,
cultural Implements of Husbandry and Garden
'fools of every description. Also, Fruit and ■
I trnamental Trees and Herbaceous Flowering
Plants, Roses and Green Hoi:<- Plants of a very
great variety; all of which can be packed so
as to be transported to any part of the Inited
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 be 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, and on this, and every other subject, j
the suggestions of correspondents will receive |
the fullest consideration.
MULBERRIES FOR SILK WORMS, i
50,000 PLANTS of the Chinesv Mulberry
cr Morus muJticaulis, for sale. Os all tlie 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 !
beautiful and of a rapid growth, and will thrive
well in almost any situation, and a few years 1
are sufficient to raise considerable fields oftliem
in full vigor, sufficient to support nil immense j
number of silk worms. The raising of silk is ,
as easy as the raising of wheat and much less 1
laborious. For a number of years past it has
been a regular and profitable employment of
many ofthe farmers of Connecticut, during the
early part of the summer, and is emphatically
a business of the filmier—of the cottage—a
simple labor, in whicli females and children
who do not essentially aid in supporting a 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 tnlle
can procure a pamphlet which will give them
the necessary information of reeling, Ac. The
plants can be packed so as to be transported to
any part ofthe Uniou and will be furnished in
quantities to suit purchasers, and at very mod
erate rates. Nov. IG
PROPOSALS
For publishing, by subscription, a work to le
entitled

rHIS will ho, both a Grammar and !);<•'.ion
ary of Botany ; —presenting, first, Vegeta
le Physiology, and, second, a minute and ne
urate description of every plant yet discovered
n Georgia, together with itsmed.. innl or nox
ous properties—its English name—itsenihlem,
mguage, Ac. Such a work is much needed.
..t this time, in our Southern Institutions. Wo
have no text book in Botany, calculated to
render the science attractive. Such as wo
have, are nothing more than a few disconnected
acts in Physiology, or a dry dose iption of a
ew leaves, roots, flowers, Ac. all tending to
xcite disgust rather |han taste. Students
hould, as soon as possible, be inducted into the
practical part of the science—it is that only
which can inspire them with enthusiasm in the
prosecution of their researches. We have nev
er known a profound botanist, made so. by
delving for months over pages treating of sap.
lburnum, cambium, and the like. This work
ill teach pupils, first, the names of theclussi s
nd orders in the Linnean system, the metlmd
f analysing flowers, and, proceed next, to the
xamining, collecting and arranging of them
nto an herbarium. A lure for the science be
ng thus implanted, it must and trill increase,
nd urge them on to further and further investi
gations.
We intend that our work shall he, at once, a
text book for schools—a pleasing companion
for ladies in the boudoir and saloon—a useful
friend and companion for gentlemen in their
travels', their daily rambles, Ac. Finally, it
will be enriched with every species of informa
t on which can render such a work entertaining
and instructive.
We solicit the assistance of scientific gentle
men throughout the State, in furnishing us with
information concerning the names, locality and
habits of plants in tlnur immediate vicinity.—
Such information will be gratefully and proper
ly acknowledged.
Postmasters are requested to act as agents in
receiving and forwarding us subscriber's names
as early as the Ist November.
The work will contain from 5 to TOO pages,
octavo, and be furnished to subscribers' in
hoards, at $5 per copy. It will be .issued dur
ing the next winter, provided the number of
subscriber* warrant the expense.
All Editors throughout the Southern States,
friendly to the diffusion of scientific knowledge,
who will insert this notice, and forward us a

of the work. L. LATA STII,

Since the publication of the .1 hi i/ it miller, the
demand for the 1. units’ I'idiiumiin lias been
unprecedented and beyond the most sanguine
anticipations. At the commencement ol'lhe
volume an additional' number or' copies were
printed, which was considered at the time ade
quate to satisfy all the eiders which might be
received, and leave considerable number on
hand for subsequent calls. The publisher is
more than gratified in stating that the whole
edition was nearly exhausted before the issuing
of the seventh number of the volume; and at
this time but very few complete sets remain on
band, tosupply the numerous ortlers which arc
daily received from every section of the l.'nit
i and States.
In consequence of this greet unforeseen in
crease of new subscribers, lie has determined to
double the ninular of impressions for the sub
sequent year; while he most gratefully appre
ciates the unpiecdeiited encouragement ex
tended to the Ladies’ Companion. and at the
same lime lie begs to assure the n ailers of the
magazine and the public in general, that it is
Ins ardent resolution to meet it with a corres
ponding liberality on his part to merit its con
tinuance.
Sit.endii) Srr.Ki. Eni.iiavinos by our best
artists, accompany each number illustrated
by Tales and spirited Sketches—which will,ns
heretofore, continue to be magnificent and far
superior to those published in anv other maga

The Ladies’ Companion contains a larger
tjuantity ts reading than any other magazine
issued in this country, and its subscription
price is only threr dollars a year, while the great
combination of talent secured lor the coming
year *i!l render it unequalled by any other
periodical.

a ladies’ magazine, could have been selected
from the galaxy of female genius \\ hicli is the
glory of our country.

It is the determination of the publisher to use
every means to maintain the superiorly which
the Ladies’ Companion has obtained. For four
years he has steadily pursued a course of im
provement, and lie flatters himself that his pres
sent facilities are such as to give the Ladies'
Companion eminent advantages over all other
publications of its character,
j From the foregoing it will be perceived that
the Ladies’ Comi*a.\ion embraces every de
partment within the range of Belles-Lettres mid
, the Fine .lets ; and no exertions or expense will
■ be deemed too great to render the xvork equal
to any other extent. The flattering and gener

journal in the I’nited States, and in fact, many

asserted the undeniable claims of tin* Ladies'

I SOUTHERN LITERARY MESSENGER.
' r IAH IS is a monthly Magazine devoted cluef
i X ly to LirERATfitE, but occasionally find
ing room also for articles that fall within the
scope of Science ; and not professing an en
tire disdain of tasteful selections, though its
matter has been, as it will continue to be, in
the main, original.
Party Politics and controversial Theology,
as far as possible,are zealously excluded. 1 hey
are sometimes so blended with discussions in
i literature or in moral science, otherwise uuob
| jeetiemabie, as to gain admittance for the sake
of the more valuable matter to which they ad
here : but whenever tlist 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-
1 pointed.
Reviews, and Critical Notices, occupy
1 their due space in the work : and it is the Ed
, itor's aim that they should have a threefold
tendency—to convey, in a condensed form,
; such valuable trutiis or interesting incidents as
are embodied in tin* works reviewed, to direct
1 the reader’s attention to books that desert e 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
t ions that by their variety and multitude dis
tract and overwhelm every undiscriminating
student. ijh-aiitmi. criticism, governed by
the views just mentioned, is one of the most
inestimable and indispensable es auxiliaries, to
him who docs trislt to discriminate.
Essays, and Tales, having in view utility
oi amusement, or both-— Historical sketch
es—and llrmi. ni«i i NCF.S 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
I’ottri enough is published—sometimes of no
mean strain—to manifest and to cultivate the
growing poetical taste and talents of our coun
t ry.
'1 lie 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, as.-iii sive influence of Literature is need
ed, to allay that fever, and soothe that irrita
tion. Vice and folly are rioting abroad : —They
should l-e driven by indignant rebuke, or lasli
«d 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
< f 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 he employed,
than a periodical,on the planol the Messenger;
if that, plan be but carried out in practice t
The Sue aii peculiarly requires such an a-
gent. In all the Union, south of Washington,
there are but two Literary periodicals ! North

I twenty-five or thirty 1 is this contrast justified
by the wealth, the leisure, the native talent, or

: No : for in wealth, talents, and taste, we may
justly claim at least an equality with oufr breth
i ren ; and a domestic institution exclusively
jour own. bevond all doubt affords us, if we
choose, twice the leisure for reading and wri-
J ling, which they enjoy.
It was from deep sense of this local want.
I that the word Hoi i iii.un was engrafted oil the
name of this periodical : and not with any ile
-1 sign to nourish local prejudices, or to advocate
\ supposed local interests. Far from any such
! thought, it is tlie Editor’s fervent wish, to see
1 the North and South hound endearingly togetli
er forever, in tlie silken hands of mutual kind
ness ami nilei lion. Far from mediating hostil
' ity to the North, lie has already drawn, and he
! Lopes hereafter to draw, much of his choicest
j matter thence : and happy indeed will he deem
i himself, should his pages, by making each re
i gion know the other better, contribute in any
j essential degree to dispel the lowering clouds
that now threaten the peace of both, and to
I brighten and strengthen the sacred ties of fa-
I terual love.
! The Southern Literary Mkssent; i.h has
j now reached the l'.'lh No. of its third volume.
How far it has acted out the ideas here uttered,
jis not for the Editor to say. He believes, how
' ever, that it lulls not further short of them,
I than human weakness usually makes Practice
till short of Th ton/.

J No endeavors have thus far been spared to ren- ,
der it worthy the patronage and esteem of the

have been effected, securing an accession of
talent and energy in the editorial conduct oi

in the hands of a single individual—who is
\ thus compelled to pay simultaneous and un
j ceasing attention to Literature, Politics, For
eign Ali'airs, Domestic Occurrences, and every
subject of interest—is not so well calculated j
to secure the highest efficiency in these vari- 1
ous departments as a system embraces a partial
though not absolute division of intellectual la- i
bor. Under this conviction, the active assist
ance as well as counsel of a gentleman favora
bly known in the higher walks of Literature,
have been secured tor the ensuing year, and

Os tii>- general charaefi r of The New York

propose to change that, w hich it has borne from
its estuhi sliment. Circulating for the last two
years lrowi 11,1.00 to i',ooo copies per week,
through every State and city, and nearly every
county, in the Union -it cannot be presumed
unknown to the educated and intelligent. To
these who have not hitherto made its acquaint
ance, it may be proper to state that it is charac
terized by two objects: the one of combining
tlie greatest practicable amount of useful and
elevating information with the highest general
interest; the o’)her, of disseminating truth so
far as possible divested of the jaundice of prej
udice and the cant of party. In short, our
motto is impartiality, as distinguished from the
support of this or that party, clique, or faction,
whether in literature or politics. In conform-
I ing to this outline, great care is taken against
falling into the pernicious error—mere fatal
than the one we oppose—of suppressing or
withholding important truth beeause it lias
been made the theme of partisan conflict In
regard to literature, we shall freely express our
own opinions,’ but accord a fa.r hearing to
whatever may stand opposed to them. In poli
tics, our strictures on public men and measures
and political doctrines will evince a freedom
tempered at all tinies by courtesy; and it will
be our untiring aim to exhibit the views of- all
parties and sects, as set forth by their leaders
and oracles. In this manner, we hope to ren
der our journal a more lucid and perfect histo
ry ol the political contests of the times than
can fairly he expected from any partisan paper.

without entering further into particulars, we
may say that we shall endeavor to publish such
a journal as shall he deemed inferior in merit
and scope to no weekly periodical; and we
hope to render it popular without emptying in
to it whole Novels, Annuals and Jest-Books,
and to win readers and patrons without offer
ing them a bribe of ad ozen romances as a temp

PHILADELPHIA SATURDAY COURIER
TITHE vast patronage which has been awar
A ded the Courier is the best evidence of
its approval. It has the largest subscription
list in this countrjv It is the largest and chea
pest Family Newspaperever issued in the U
nited States, containing articles in Literature,
Science and the Arts ; Internal Improvement,
Agriculture, in short every variety of topics
usually introduced into a public Journal. Giv
ing full accounts of sales, markets and news
of the latest dates.
Without interfering with the usual variety,
the Courier has presented ten volumes of the
most popular literature of the day within the
last year. This feature puts into the hands of
its patrons the most entertaining and popular
current literature, amounting each year to six
times the price paid for subscription—in addi
tion to the immense quantity of other matters
which appear in its columns. In the contin
j uation of this feature we shall endeavor to pre
sent new and popular works with such expedi
tion that the putdication cannot be anticipated
in other sources. In the future numbers we
shall draw from the pens of such writers as
D’lsraeli, Miss Mitford,
Capt. Maryatt, Leitch Ritchie,
Miss Landon, J. R. Buckstone,
Charles Dickins, Barry Cornwall,
Cornelius Webb, Douglass Jerrold,.
Theodore Hook, Crofton Croker,
j Thomas Campbell, Mrs. S. C. Hall,
j Haynes Bayly, Mrs. Gore,
And, in short, from the whole range ofthe.
| current literature of Europe, with which our
j arrangements will supply us as early a mo
; ment as they can be received, in the country.
Besides we have the plo asure „f num b e rinir
among our contributor* many of the most dis”
tinguished writers of our country, from whose
j pens ORIGINAL TALES, POEMS, SONGS
; NARRATIVES AND SKETCHES, will con
tinue to add in terest to its columns.
The Architectural beauty of many of the
PUBLIC BUILDINGS of this city is prover
bial. Believing it will be acceptable to our
numerous patrons to be presented with EN
GRAVED ILLUSTRATIONS of those edi
fices, we are engaged in bringing out a com
plete series, which will form a collection that
! may tvell be termed, THE LIONS OFPHIL
' ADELPHIA. Where it is expedient, we ac
| company the engravings with such descriptions
j of size and facts of history, as may be of intcr-
I est.
I The Courier is published at the low price of
j Two Dollars. For this small sum subscribers
! get valuable and entertaining matter each week
I enough to fill a common book of two hundred
and fifty pages, and equal to fifty two volumes
a year, and which is estimated to be read, week
ly, by at least two hundred thousand people,
scattered in all parts of the country, from
Maine to Florida, and from the sea board to the
lakes.
