In a Pamphlet, at the Office of the ALEXAN
DRIA DAILY ADVERTISER, in a
short time,
An Address
TO THE PEOPLE OF THE U. STATES,
ON THE IMPORTANCE OF ENCOURAGING
Agriculture and Domestic Manufac
tures.
Tending to shew, that by a due encourage
ment of these, essential interests, the nation
will be rendered more respectable abroad, and
more prosperous at home. Together with an
account of the IMPROVEMENT IN SHEEP
AT ARLINGTON, the native sheep of Smith’s
Island, and the plans proposed of extending
this valuable race of animals, lor the benefit of
the country at large.
BY GEORGE W. P. CUSTIS, Esq.
Os Arlington house, in the district of Columbia.
At a time when the energies o the nation
seem awakened to the state of our foreign and
domestic concerns, we conceive that the impor
tant interests of agriculture and manufactures
should meet with a considerable share of the
public discussion. Certain it is, that at no pe
riod of our political history, could these nation
al subjects excite more interest, or be more
properly urged to the notice of the public mind.
The unsettled and impending appearance of
our foreign affairs, and the present disturbed
Mate of the European world, renders it clouhly
necessary for the citizens of America to cherish
and ; remote their domestic policy, whereby
hey mat derive those resources which are now
u>t. tied from abroad, and create wealth and
industry within themselves. Too” long have
these important and patriotic interests been
uegie ‘.ted. The nation now feels their want,
m I we trust will duly provide for their support,
iovernmeijt, hithercto engaged in other con
cerns, will now cherish those domestic institu
. ions, which will preserve the nation’s dignity,
nil promote the people’s welfare.
On the merits of the little Work we are
ibout to issue to the public, it is not our pro
duce to decide; but of the advantages to be
erived from its sale, we would beg leave to
say every thing which a disinterested exertion
i:i the cause of domestic manufactures justly
demands. And as the profits of this work, af
ter the expences of publication are paid, will
lie solely devoted to the purpose of the Arling
ton Institution, we may hope and confidently
expect a liberal patronage from a discerning
and patriotic community. EDITOR.

Tracts of the most distinguished Navi

Carefully collected from the best Charts, Maps,

The difficulty of procuring good and accu
rate Maps, and the extravagant prices charged
for those imported, has been the principal in- I
ducemcnt to the present undertaking. Mr. >
Arrow smith’s Maps hav e justly acquired the
pre-eminence over all others in Europe and
America, both for neatness and correctness,
and so great has been the demand for those of
his execution, that it very frequently happens,
that a single copy cannot be procured in the U.
States. His celebrated Map of the World, the
best extant, is so absolutely necessary to the
gentleman and the scholar, that it is hoped the
encouragement will be sommensurate with the
weight of the undertaking.

J. The size of the map will be upwards of
six feet bv three feet, and shall be engraved in
the very best manner, and printed on paper of
the first quality.

THE LIFE OF
Maj or- Ge n. Jam e s Jack so n
BY THOMAS U.’ P. Cl! Ml I.TON,
A citizen of Savannah.
With considerable labor and difficulty I have
collected materials which wiH • liable me t
complete, in a few weeks, the file of major-ge
neral James Jackson.
The character of this late distinguished ci
tizen, was always held in high estimation bv
the republican interest of the United States’;
and even his enemies (if al! enmity is not now
buried in the grave) must acknowledge, that he
was a brave soldier, an incorruptible states
man, and an honest man.
The memoirs I am preparing for publica
tion will be the thus divided—
-1-t Period —Will detail the revolutionary
services cf general Jackson, and, collaterally,
the services ot many patriotic Georgians, from
1776, to the evacuation of Savannah, in 1782.’
2d Period —Will detail his political and ci
vil pursuits, from 1782 to 1806. This division
of the memoirs will contain a history of the
Yazoo Speculation in the state of Georgia,
from the commencement of the fraud to its sub
version, in 1796 ; and will also embrace the
proceedings of the house of representatives
and the senate of the state of Georgia, ana o'*
the hon ■ f re; esentatives of the congress of
the United States, in the year 1791, on the
celebrated contested election of general Antho
ny Wayne.
This work will be printed on an octavo page,
and will probably contain 350 o’- 400 pages.
The price to subscribers, (as the expenses
of publication are at present estimated) will
be S2 50— one dolt. t. r of which must be paid
at the time of subscribing.
As soon as 1000 subscribers shall have made
this adva we, the money and the manuscript
will be ueiivered to the publisher.

FIRST CHARLESTON EDITION OF
Buchan’s Family Works.
Including Domestic Medicine, or a treatise,
on the prevention and cure of diseases, bv re
gimen and simple medicines To which are
added. Observations on Diet ; recommending
a method of living less expensive, and more
conducive to health than the present.
ADVICE TQMOTHERS,
On the subject of their own health; and the
health, strength, and beautv of their offspring.
[The celebrity of. Dr. .Buchan’s Domestic
Medicine, as well as its universally acknow
ledged utility, renders commendation wholly
useless. Ihe first Charleston edition however,
has several advantages'; a little before tiie
death of the doctor, (i805) he revised it, and
besides considerable amendments, lie added
several interesting new subjec ts or heads—and
as the Vaccination or Cove-Pox has become an
important branch in the medical art, this edi
tion contains the best information on that head.
Besides the chapter on the Kine Pox, there is.
also, the Anatomy of the Human Body ; a gen
eral and particular account of the properties of
Aliment; a chapter on the Yellow Fever ; of
the Tetanus or the Locked Jaw, &c. &c. Tne
Advice To Mothers, is a late production of
this celebrated physician. The Philadelphia
Literary Magazine, in noticing this work, says,
“ This performance is one of the most useful
and agreeable that could have been transmit
ted to our soil. The author is an old man, but
he writes in an intertaining and persuasive,
and even in an elegant manner. The work is
entirely free from technical obscurity, or sci
entific method. It is written to instruct, and
for that purpose endeavors toengage the atten
tion of that sex, whose interest he takes into
his care.”
N. B. The last revised (prior to this) edition
of tile Domestic Medicine, sells at three dol
lars, and the Adi dee to Mothers, at two dol
lars. The present edition, enlargrd, including
both, sells at but three dollars, and fifty cents ,
iu handsome calf binding and fine paper, three
dollars and seventy-five cents. And separate
