4 THE DAUGHTER OF BBAUTT. Sweet daughter of Boasty, Fair sister of Lnve, Thine eyes are the load-stars That kindle dbove : Like the mantle of Night, As it float* on the air, Is the clustering cloud Os thy dark raven hair. On a fair sunny isle, A gem of the sea, There would I lire ever, With thee, love, with thee; ’ No shadows might dim Such an Eden of joy— For nought but delight Should our moments employ. Oh might I but dwell love, In that fairy place, I never would weary To gaze on thy face ; Bewildered with pleasure, I’d linger for aye ’Neath the radiant glance Os thy beautiful eye. r. H . D , Robespierre* The following sketch ol Robespierre will re mind men of what we all see and know, though lew draw the proper inference—namely, that even cowardice, the most abject, can render harmless a chartered and pampered villain: •‘ln fine, that he was beyond most men that ever lived, hateful, selfish, unprincipled, cruel, unscrupulous, is undeniable. That he was not the worst ot the Jacobin group may also be without hesitation affirmed. Collot d’Herbois was probably worse; Billaud Garennes certain ly, ot whom it was said by Garat, “Il fauche dans les tetes, comine un autre dans les pres,”— (he mows down heads as another would grass.) But neither of these men had the same fixity of purpose, and both were inferior to him in speech. Both, however, and indeed all the revolutionary chiefs, were his superiors in the one great qual ity of courage; and, while his want of boldness, his abject poverty of spirit, made him as despi cable as he was odious, we are left in amaze ment at his achieving the place which he filled, without the requisite most essential to success in times of trouble, and to regard as his distin guishing but pitiful characteristic the circum stance which leaves the deepest impression up on those who contemplate his story, and in which he is to be separated from the common herd of usurpers, that his cowardly nature did not prevent him from gaining the prize which in all other instances has been yielded to a daring spirit. “Such was Robespierre—a name at which all men still shudder. Reader, think not that this spectacle has been exhibited by Providence for no purpose, and without any use. It may serve as a warning against giving way to a score of creatures that seem harmless, because of the disproportion between their mischievous propensities and their powers to injure, and against suffering them to breathe and to crawl till they begin to ascend into regions where they may be more noxious than in their congenial dunghill or native dust. No or.e who has cast away all regard to principle, and is callous to all human feelings, can be safely regarded as iunocuous, merely because, in addition to oth er defects, he has also the despicable weakness ofbeing pusillanimous and vile.” Natural Eloquence.—An honest old farmer in Vermont has lately taken it into his head, that he has been “ called to preach”—and preach he will, in despite of the advice of his friends. The following is an extract from one of the old gentleman’s sermons. “ My dear hearers, in the fust place I’ll show that man is an undone critter ; secondly, that a savior has been perwided ; and thirdly, how he is to get out of this pickle.” Having thus, in the most approved manner, laid out his work, he continues in the following strain: “It is recorded somewhere in the good Book, 1 think it is either in the Psalms or the book ot St. Acts, that man was at fust created unpandi cular, but he has found out many sorts of con trivances. Now, my friends, I hold that about the biggest of these contrivances are sin. Sin, my hearers, are seeditian—and seeditian is the old Adam—the evil seed—the tares and the wheat—dou’t you see? Sin, my friends, has cost the world a great deal. It costs a man more than it would to keep a cow—yes, even if she sot her foot in the pail of new milk every other night, and would hook down rail fence like a tarnel saroent. Don’t you see how foolish it is, then 1 Why, you can’t computate what a na tion of hurt it has done to the airth and all that’s in it. If it had’nt been for sin, there never would have been any airthquakes, nor thunder nor rain; and snow storms, aud caverns, and the eatracks, and precipices, would’nt never a hap pened—but the world would have all been as level and smooth as a dish 1 There wouldn’t been no up-hill, nor nothing to hurt and defrac tify the poor weak ancestors of fallen Adam. Oh, my friends, I feel to put it into you the rael gospel licks I You’re all a pack of sinners, so you are—you’ve gone astray —you wander in forbidded paths—the sperit aint with you—in the words of the apostel, ye hatch cock turkey’s eggs, and weave the spider’s web, and bring forth young vipers—don’t you see? and soon, an so on’ rattle-le-bang, like a locomotive turn ed loose under a high pressure of steam, hardly pausing to take breath for two mortal hours, pouring 1 .. a such a confused jumble of man gled scripture, murdered English, and unmit igated nonsense, that his “ firstly,” “ secondly,” and “ thirdly,” were soon smothered to death, aud no further intelligence was heard of them during the discourse. This is no caricature; for it would be impossible to caricature; this * son of 1 thunder ; for dashing at once into un mixed absurdity, there is nothing left for the imagination of the caricaturist to supply.” Correspondence of the N. Y. Express. Washington, December 9th. “Help me Cassius, or I sink." The readers ot the Express may not all be aware of the efforts ot J ohn Tyler to secure a re election.—“ Stick at nothing,” seems to be the determination of the President and his sons, and it is this ambition for fame and love of office which has made his administration the most corrupt, that has ever existed, and more corrvpt, it is believed, than all other administrations put together. The Mr. Abell alluded to is the gentlemen who was recently bearer of despatches to Texas, and who only last week was a second time sent from Washington to Texas with'despatches. “President’s Hoose, Nov. 30, 1843. Sir—As it is considered important, in justice to the President, to circulate among the people the work spoken of by Mr. Abell in his accom panying lei ter, yon will confer a favor on the undersigned by taking such measures for that, and as Mr. A. suggests. Prompt action and a liberal subscription will render your services still mare useful. I am, very respectfully, your ob’t serv’t. JOHN TYLER, Jun’r.” Washington, Nov. 30 1843. Dear Sir—A Life of President Tyler, in cluding his principal speeches when in Congress, and his other public papers, messages, &c. com piled from the most authentic sources is now being issued by Harper & Brothers. The volume is an Bvo. of some 300 pages, finely printed, with a handsomely executed portrait of the President, and in consideration of the large sale confidently expected, is furnished by the publishers at the low price of SSO per hundred As you will doubtless be pleased to aid in setting the acts of Mr. Tyler’s public life properly and truthfully before the people, it is believed that you will cheerfully subscribe for 60 or 70 copies of the work, to be distributed as you shall think best. Your order, directed to me here, with the sub scription money, will be immediately supplied, and it is hoped and expected that the subscrip tion will be prompt and liberal. ALEX. G. ABELL. These are only a pair of letters. There are more of similar import, which I may send you. Please ask Mr. Tyler, if it is not an impertinent question, how much of the Life of John Tyler was written at the White House. Q. IN THE CORNER. True Inspiration.—We have seen a great many affectations about the feelings inspired by traveling through the “ Holy Land;” but we have never seen any thing more beautiful or full ot sacred feelings, than the following, from the painter, Wilkie’s life; — “ ‘ When I went,’ says Collins, the artist, ‘ to bid Sir David Wilkie farewell, a day or two be fore he left home for his last journey, I fouud him in high spirits, enlarging, with all his high enthusiasm, on the immense advantage he might derive from painting upon holy land, on the very ground on which the event he was about to embody had actually occurred. To make a study at Bethlehem from some young femaleand child, seemed to me one great incentive to his journey. I asked him if he had any guide book. He said ‘ Yes, and the very bestand then un locking his travelling box he showed me a pock et Bible. I never saw him again ; but the Bi ble throughout Judea, was, 1 am assured, his best and only hand-book.’ ” “You mustn’t smoke here, sir,” said the cap tain of a North river steamboat to a man who was smoking am >ng the ladies on the quarter deck. “I mustn’t, hey! Why not?” replied he, opening his capacious mouth, and allowing the smoke lazily to escape. “Didn’t you see the sign? all gentleman are requested not to smoke abaft the engine.” “Bless your soul, that don’t mean me—l’m no gentleman!”— North Amiri' can. A beautiful Idea—Knowledge of Men. One evening there was an illumination, and we sat on one margin of the lake to take a prospect of it on the other. But I, instead of looking upon the lambs, looked into the water and up to the sky, and there stood a clear, beautiful star aloft, and immoveable. In the water 1 saw it also, beautiful indeed, but often moved by the wind, changing its torm, and not seldom dim. Suddenlly the thought struck me, so it is with men ;we know them, we judge them, only in the strangest, most complex, and often most un natural relations, far away from their proper selves, in situations and in atmostpheres where they are shaken, and troubled, and become dim. We look always one way—down—into some muddy pond (called belike History) where the peal character of a man is tossed upon the waves of a vain opinion. Pitiful ’—look up at once into the man’s face—into his soul—where God give* you opportunity. At an adjourned meeting ot the Citizens of Huntsville, on Thursday, the 30th November, 1843, for the purpose of promoting a connec tion with the Atlantic Seaboard and the waters of the Mobile Bay, the Chairman ot the Com mittee appointed at the last meeting, John H. Lewis, Esq., presented the following Report and Resolutions, which, on motion, were unani mously adopted, viz: REPORT. The undersigned, appointed a committee un der a resoluion adopted at a meeting held by the citizens of Madison county, Ala., in the town of Huntsville, on the 18th inst., Report, that they have bestowed their best reflections on the subject submitted to them, and regret that the amount of authentic information at their com mand is wholly incommensurate with the mag nitude and importance of the subject. They have, however, arrived at the conviction that here can exist no project of deeper or more a biding interest to the whole State of Alabama, whether it be regarded in a social or commer cial point of view, than a direct communication between North and South Alabama, andanout let to the Atlantic seaboard. From all your com mittee are able to gleam, these desirable objects can be accompished by opening two routes which present themselves as combining more advanta ges, and can be achieved at less expense, than any other. One of these crosses the Northern part of the State along the line of the Tuscum bia, Courtland and Decatur Rail Road; thence 60 miles up the Tennessee River to Gunter’s Landing; thence 23 miles by Rail Road to Dou ble Springs on the Coosa River, thence up the Coosa River about 70 miles to Rome, in the State of Georgia, the destined terminus of the Monroe branch Railroad. Your committee are advised that Steamboats of light draft are in pre paration, designed for the navigation of the Tennessee and Coosa rivers, between the points designated, and that the 3'2 miles ot Rail Road from one to the other of these rivers will com plete the chain of inter-communication, by Steamboat and Rail Road, with the whole At lantic seaboard. The route of 32 miles, your committee learn, was surveyed in 1837, and the elevation of the Sand Mountain, the only bar rier presenting itself, found to be only 518 feel above the Tennessee River, and even at this period ot high prices its cost ofs completion, with stationary power at the acclivity ol the mountain, (which there is every probability can be dispensed with) was only estimated at about Three Hundred Thousand Dollars. As suming as a hypothesis the terms of the late let tings ot contracts for similar work in the State of Georgia, probably one half this sum will complete the whole line, and your committee believe that even this estimate may be reduced by purchasing slaves to do the labor, besides incidentally benetitting the culture of Cotton by withdrawing so much of slave labor from its production. Although your committee have thus pointed out the line of communication wi:h the Atlantic Seaboard and hesitate to point out a communication between the Northern and Southern part of the State, they here declare that it is not from any lack of conviction of its grer.t importance, nor from a want of materials to form a proper judgment as to the best route, but from a belief that its location should be de ferred to the decision ot their fellow-citizens of the South residing more contiguous to the route. They cannot, however, forbear expressing their conviction that a channel of communication between North and South Alabama, contiibut ing so extensively to the internal commerce of the State, and strengthening the social and po litical bonds of the people, is of itself a con sideration, enough to justify the completion of the work. Your committee regret that they have not time to present a statistical account of the for eign and domestic commerce that would traverse these lines of communication. It will, proba ably, be deemed sufficient to say, that Eighty Thousand Bales or Cotton raised in North Ala bama, and that part of Tennessee bordering on it would find its way to the Seaboard by these routes, and that the eastern route would afford such facilities as to cause it to be adopted imme diately, not only for imports, but as a thorough fare of travel for all this region of the Missis sippi valley, to and from the Eestern cities.— Already has this route been tried by our Mer chants, and ni twithstanding a land transporta tion of 250 miles, proved to be the saftest, most expeditious, and least expensive of any route known; and we hazard but little in saying that the whole trade of imports for North Alabama and the Southern Counties of Middle Tennes see, is destined, immediately, to shift to this channel. Your committee will only glance at a few advantages, in a commercial point of view, which this communication would afford by contrasting its facilities with those which now exist. In the first place, it would rid us of our present dependence on the fresh ets in our rivers, of a long, circuitous, danger ous and expensive transit to a market in which our staple finds the most burdensome charges, and is entirely at the mercy of purchasers. It would not only diminish the expense of sale of our Staple, but would give us quick returns and a choice of two markets on the Atlantic Seaboard, to wit: Charleston, S. C., and Sa vannah, Georgia, which are uniformly a hall cent per pound better for Cotton that the New Orleans market, and saving a transit of two thousand miles to the great Cotton marts of Eu rope. In addition to this a certain market would be afforded us for the Bagging, Rope, Bacon, Beef, Flour, &c., which can be so abundantly produced in the Tennessee valley. If the com munication were opened with South Alabama, the articles of produce just mentioned which are now supplied through Mobile and New Or leans, subject to heavy charges and exposed to the pernicious effects of a warm, humid clim ate, would be furnished at low prices and in sound condition. Nor would it be proper in enumerating the advantages to result from the two projected improvements to omit the mention of the vast mineral wealth of North Alabama. Iron ore and Stone coal present themselves in inexhaustible bodies, whilst the extensive water power and unparalelled salubrity of the climate in Northern and Eastern Alabama, mark it as the chosen region for Manufactures in the South; requiring only capital, skill, and a cheap tran sit to market to give them vitality. The ad vantages in a social, political and commercial point of view, to result from these great works would be further demonstrated in the increased mail and travelling facilities. It the Eastern connection were found wecould travel toCharles ton with comfort in 3 days, and to New York in 5 days. In order to exhibit the practicability of ma king the connection with the Atlantic Seaboard, by constructing the 32 miles of Rail Road be tween the Tennessee and Ccosa rivers, it is ne cessary to glance at the present and prospective condition of the Rail Roads in Georgia, and your committee have ascertained the following facts. A line of Rail Road is completed from Charleston S. C., to Madison, Ga. 241 miles.— The last link in the Georgia Rail Road, from Madison to Decatur, Ga. about 58 miles, is un der contiact —in rapid progress of construction, and will be finished in 18 months, at farthest, from this time. The Western and Atlantic Rail Road from Decatur (the junction with the Georgia road) is graded to a point above Cass ville, and the superstructure now in progress of being laid down, and to be completed by the first of April next. The “Memphis branch Rail Road” from a point near Cassville to Rome on the Coosa river, a distance of about sixteen miles, is under contract, to be completed by the connection is formed below, say in eighteen months, thus perfecting the grand chain of Rail Roads from Charleston to Rome nearly four hundred miles in length. Your Committee have already alluded to the fact that Steamboats are preparing for the navigation of the Coosa and Tennessee rivers, designed, expressly, to pro mote the connection between the line of Rail Roads in Georgia and the Tennesse Valley, and that the short link of Rail Road between these two rivers is the only thing wanted to perfect a channel of communication, by Steamboat and Rail Road, with the Atlantic border. But not only is this achannel of communication with the Valley of the Tennessee, b it, by the use of the Tuscumbia, Courtland ar.d Decatur Rail Road around the Muscle Shoals and the Ten nessee Rivet below, with the whole Mississippi Valiev, and most truly and emphatically with the "Great West.” Your Committee have not in the examination of this subject pretermitted the consideration of the ways and means by which it is to be accom plished. They forbear to recommend the mode ot its completion, whether by individual asso ciation combined with State resources, or by State enterprise alone. They will, however, direct attention to the two per cent, fund relin quished by the Federal Government to the State of Alabama upon the express condition that it should be appropriated to the opening of a com munication between the Tennessee river and the waters of Mobile Bay and the construction of a road leading from West Point on the Georgia line to Jackson, Alabama. This fund in 1841 amounted to $228,415 22 and was payable in two equal instalments, falling due Ist ot May, 1812 and Ist of May, 1843. The first instal ment was, by law, invested in Treasury notes bearing interest, but your Committee are not ad vised ot the condition of the last instalment. It is believed that subsequent sales of public lands with accruing interest has swelled the amount of the whole fund to nearly three hundred thou sand dollars, all of which is solemnly pledged for the works referred to, and will, no doubt, be in good faith so appropriated whenever the pub lic will is made to act on their Representatives in the Legislature. Your Committee deem the connection of the Tennessee and Coosa Rivers by Rail Road as carrying out the stipulations of the law in regard to opening a commnnica tion between the North and South, and by a wonderful adaptiveness it can be made available for an Eastern outlet. And when it is consider ed that the States of South Carolina and Georgia have thought it a measure of wisdom to con struct a line of Rail Roads four hundred miles in length, at an outlay of upwards of Four Mil lions of Dollars, for the object of a connection with the Tennessee Valley and the Great West, can it be unwise in the State of Alabama to construct thirty-two miles ot Rail Road in order to meet their noble works and thereby accom plish their grand design, and that for our own benefit ? The problem is solved! The works of South Carolina and Georgia have demonstrated the wisdom of the undertaking by their productive ness as well as by the enhanced value of real estate iu every section of those States within the influence of those works; the conclusion is irre sistible that if it has proven the wisdom of States just mentioned to make such a vast outlay of capital to construct a line of communication to our border, it would be anything but wisdom in Alabama to reject the benefit of these great works when offered to us on the terms pointed out, which amounts, indeed, to a gratuity. Therefore, Resolved, that delegates be appoint ed by the chair to visit Tuscaloosa toconferwith the friends of the protected works as to the best mode of accomplishing them; and also to urge the Legislature to make an appropriation for a survey of the route between the Tennessee and Coosa rivers. Resolved, That delegates be appointed by the chair to visit the States of Georgia and South Carolina, and to report to a meeting to be held in Huntsville on the third Monday in May next, the state and condition of their Railroads, and also such statistical facts as they may deem use ful in illustrating the benefits to result to this State from a connexion with them, and the most practicable plan for making such connection. Resolved, That the two per cent, fund ceded by the General Government to the State of Alabama for the express purpose of connecting the waters of the Tennessee River with those of Mobile Bay and a road leading from West Point in Georgia to Jackson in Alabama, should be devoted to these objects alone; and any attempt to divert it from this purpose whouldbe a palpa ble violation of public faith and destructive of the best interests of the whole State. Resolved, That the forgoing Report and Res olutions be forwarded to the members of the Leg islatures and Presidents of the Rail Roads in Georgia, South Carolina, and Alabama, and that they be published with the proceedings of this meeting in the newspapers in this town. The Chairman named Dan’l B. Turner, Esq. and Col. Robt. Fearn, as delegates to visit the States of Georgia and South Carolina, in pursu ance of the second Resolution, and on motion ol Judge Louis Wyeth of Marshall county, Rich mond Nickles Esq., of Marshall, was added to this delegation. On motion a standing commit tee ot correspondence was appointed, with power to call meetings whenever occasion required, consisting of the following gentlemen viz: Dr. T. Fearn, Wm.J. Mastin, J. I. Donegan and George Cox, The chairmafi then real letters which he fiad received from citizens of Jackson and DeKalb counties, expressing their hearty approval of the object of this meeting, and their desire to lend any aid in their power towards its accomplish ment; and then on motion the meeting adjourned. B. M. LOWE, Chairman. George Cox, Secretary. advice TO FARMERS’ DAUGHTERS A female correspondent of the Tennessee Ag riculturist, last year wrote several communica tions under the signature of Lucy, containing much wholesome advice to farmers’ wives and daughters, and we find she has again resumed her labors in an address to Farmers’ Daugh ters. Her communications of last year were greatly admired and extensively copied, and we think our own readers will conclude after read ing the subjoined, which is the first of her new series, that it is destined to find as much favor with the intelligent as did her former ones.— Amer, Farmer. to farmers’ daughters. The desire of information is necessary in or der to the acquisition of it, and as books are one of the principal sources from which we de rive our most valuable knowledge, I will talk to you about them, and a few other matters this evening. A taste tor reading should be cultiva ted by all young persons. 1 consider a fondness for useful books one of the greatest blessings. Without this, there are so many hours that pass away heavily and idly, and for which no good account can be rendered in time or eternity.— In bad weather, I have seen young ladies lounge about, not knowing what to do with themselves, because they could not go out to visit or shop.— The case is so much altered, when you can sit down with pleasure to a good book, and heed less whether it rain, or the sun shine, can read on, determining to improve the dark days of life by laying up those stores ot knowledge so much needed in after time. You derive pleasure not only from the book, but also from the reflection, I have improved the time. I have learned something I did not know before. It is of great importance that you have the right kind of books. Many young persons read, and it would be better for them if they were ignorant of the alphabet. They read for present excitement, and of couise, novels are the only books lor which they have an appetite. It is my opinion, you had better not read at all, than acquire a passion for them, tor it generally amounts to a passion. Girls who read many novels lose their common sense and heattny action olmind; They dream over the love sick eloquence of the heroines, the beauty, bravery, and noble bear ing of the heroes; all the great events therein related are pondered over, until the common af fairs and duties of every day existence, are tasteless and disgusting, and they are thrown aside whenever it is possible, for the favorite novels. This is not always the worst evil re sulting from improper reading. The splendid qualities of the heroes are transferred to some living character; it is imagined he has the deep dark and lustrous eye, the wreathing hair, the marble brow, the noble and high born grace of a Thaddeus, a Sir William Wallace, or some other imaginary favorite; and it is all the same whether he be a gambler, a play actor, or a horsethief, she believes it not: reflection is at an end, and the novelist wakes from her dream, to bear her bitter tot in the stem realities of life, without preparation of mind or heart. On the contrary, useful books impart strength and vig or to the mind, discipline it to bear the misfor tunes of life, render it more capable of judging the true character ot others, and of acting with discretion in all trying situations. Read for in stance the life of a Franklin, a Washington, a Miss Hannah More, and you find in every page something to imitate, something to better the heart and life. In Miss M. you see a woman of true feminine grace and dignity, one who learned and taught the art of “growing old gracefully.” If you will read novels, read but tew, and those selected by some one upon whose judg ment you can depend. Miss Edgeworth, if I might hazard an opinion, is one of the very few whose works may be read with safety and even profit. She has sense, practical every day com mon sense, that is good for use. She talks a bout industry, economy, correct principles and actions. She possesses at the same time deli cacy and propriety in all things. Better for you to read the pure morality that lives in her writ ings, than to pore over the passionate effusions of the corrupt Bulwer. He it is, who now writes, and forms the taste of millions, and when he talks of love, how fervently do his tones of tenderness gush forth, as if he had a heart to appreciate the holier sentiments of hu man nature. But while he thus writes, he can treat even with personal violence, the beauti ful wife who loved and trusted,—who gave to him the first pure affection of her noble heart; he can separate her from her children, drive her from his home to take refuge with strangers, and even follow her with insult and persecution But lam digressing. There is another article 1 will mention. Read but few books, and let your knowledge be accurate. Understand per fectly what you read, it is better to gain two ideas you can appropriate to your own use, than to have a confused i dea of fifty things.— One of our great men attributes all the distinc tion he has gained, to the careful perusal of one book. The authors ot purest style and most correct sentiments should be studied; while those of an opposite character ought ever to.be carefully avoided. You know a woman is gen erally thought intelligent, if she can talk about a good number of authors she has read. Ido not think it is always conclusive evidence. It is oftener a proof her knowledge is superficial. There are but few ol our sex who devote much time to study, in our part of the country at least, and you frequently find that she who has most names at the end of her tongue, has fewest ideas in her head. Some minds of un common strength may be improved by the study ot many books; where however it is advantage ous to one, it is a disadvantage to many others. A feeling of vanity is produced, and the intel lect confused, ratherthanenlightened. Os course I speak of young persons. Do not look into books in order to make a show; to know their titles and a few sentences from them. I have seen young persons who would look for an hour or two into Paley, and then talk more of philos ophy than others who had studied him thorough ly, and had his ideas on all matters. Some one writing of this effort at display, says, “you can always see the bottom of the pebbly brook, but the ocean unveils not its rich ly gemmed carpeting.” Miss Beecher, speak ing of a young lady who had but Jew books, and had studied them well, mentions that “a person of information in c. n.vrsing with her would always teel a constant wondering pleasure, to find she had so much more to say of this and that and the other thing than he had expected. ” This cannot be said of mere smatterers you know. There are many of you who devour with eagerness, all the fashionable journals of the day; a great part of which consists of pretty love tales. Now, love is an excellent thing in its place, but reading about it all the time is not much benefit. I cannot think you derive much improvement from such studies. They produce a pleasing excitement for the time, but then that time is to all intents and purposes wasted. Take care of the mi- utes, and the hours and days will take care of thimselves. There are papers in our country you may read, and improve irom the perusal, and they are those devoted to Agriculture. You may say, what have Ito do with Agriculture ? Yoa have much or will have, in the course of your future life. They will teach you how to culti vate the gardens you intend to have, when you go house keeping; how to manage houshold af fairs with the most ease and to the best advan- tage, how to do a hundred and fifty other things. A. number of you will marry young doctors, lawyers, preachers, merchants, with soft white hands, who know nothing beyond their proles sions, and if you can learn something before hand, and teach them common senseaboutgoing to work, and earning their living by the sweat of their brow, as the Lord intended them to do, it will add more to your own comfort than you have any idea of. After the first romance of love is over, you will want all those things that grow in the earth, and out of the earth, and you cannot gain them without a good degree of knowledge and a great deal of hard work. My maxim is, learn every thing you can, from darn ing socks, to decorating cows. Put it all down in your mind, or in a book. You will need it sometime or other. To mention these Agricultural papers again, I would not be deprived of the information I gain from them, for all the love tales in the coun try. The Boston Cultivator, for instance, con tains much that is pleasing and useful. There is always something addressed to the ladies, that makes it a welcome guest. The Yankee Farmer, thinks it one of the most proper things in life that girls learn about the “soft soap of do mestic economy,” while young. The Ameri can Agriculturist has a little of most all mat ters that are good. The American Farmer and the Cultivator will teach not only you, but your lathers, a good deal they do not know. There is a host ot other Farmers and Planters, and Ploughboys and Cultivators, that I have not now time to write about, but they are all valua ble for their information on business we have to attend to every day, month and year. I have but one objection to some of them, and it is, that they do not say quite enough for she benefit of the Ladies. One reason may be given for this, the ladies say very little to them. I have written till 1 am tired, I expect you will be tired reading, and will tax you no longer. Lucy. THE ECONOMY OF AGRICULTURE. Liberality constitutes the economy of agri culture, and perhaps it is the solitary human occupation, to which the adage, ‘the more we give the more we shall receive,’can be justly applied. Liberality to the earth in manuring and culture is the fountain of its bounty to us. Liberality to laborers and working animals is the fountain of their profit. Liberality to do mestic brutes is the fountain of manure. The good work of a strong team causes a product be yond the hard work of a weak one, after de ducting the additional expense of feeding it; and it saves moreover half the labor of the driver, sunk in following a bad one. Liberali ty in warm houses, produces health, strength and comfort; preserves the lives of a multitude of domestic animals; causes all animals to thrive on less food; and secures from damage all kinds of crops. And liberality in the uten sils of husbandry, saves labor to a vast extent, by providing the proper tools for doing the work both well and expeditiously. Foresight is another item in the economy of agriculture. It consists in preparing work for all weather, and doing work in proper weather, and at proper times. The climate of the Uni ted States makes the first easy, and the second less difficult than in most countries. Ruinous violations of this important rule are yet frequent from temper and impatience. Nothing is more common than a persistence in ploughing, mak ing hay, cutting wheat, and other works, when a small delay might have escaped a great loss, and the labor employed to destroy, would have been employed to save. Crops of all kinds are often planted or sown at improper periods or unseasonably, in relation to the state of the weather, to their detriment or destruction, from the want of an arrangement of the work on a farm, calculated for doing every species of it precisely at the periods and in the seasons most likely to enhance its profit.— “Arelnr’s” Essays. From the American Agriculturist. TOPPING COTTON—MARL. Sumpter District, S. C., Nov. 4, 1843. In those excellent matter-of-fact articles on the cultivation of cotton, which have appeared inthe late numbers of your paper, by Dr. Phi lips of Mississippi, and which, by the way, are the best I have ever seen on the subject, I do not recollect that he has touched upon the subject of topping cotton. I have made one experi ment in this, and was pleased with the result.— Some planters north ol us, I understand, have also tried this method, and find the cotton is not so apt to shed, as when it is not topped, espe cially in wet seasons. Ordinarily we reckon the first weekin August the best time fortop ping; but this, of course, will depend upon the season, and the forwardness of the crop—for sometimes it must be earlier, and sometimes later. I tried the effects of what I suppose to be marl, on a small spot in one of my fields, say about one acre. The marl 1 judge to be of poor quality, yet can not say, positively, as I nave no analysis of it. 1 dug it out in January last, and spread it broadcast, at the rate ot 30 loads to the acre, as large as an ordinary pair of mules would carry. It seemed to pulverize well, ex posed to the severe frost ot last winter, and I ploughedit in deeper than 1 usually plough, harrowed the land well. The result is, 1 shall get full one-third if not one half mote cotton off this piece than any other part of the field, WniCll muic man |>aj«ui<i A»Un. c,m u ui«. I need not say that we read the articles on manures inlhe Agriculturist with much inter est; for many of us are beginning to learn that it is not only easier and better, but even cheaper to renovate our old lands, than emigrate to a new country and bring new lands into cultiva tion. C. McD. Good Fruit.—That it'is just as easy to have good fruit as poor, is a trutii that every farmer should remember; and this, if acted on, will be found not only easy but profitable. Il the fruit •rchard is deficient in numbers or varieties, lose no time in correcting the evil; and the best way is to apply to some experienced nurseryman for the kinds and qualities most desired. A few good fruit trees of each desired variety, is lar better than great numbers witli inferior fruit. A succession of good fruits is indespensable.— The varieties of summer, autumn, and winter, should follow so as to leave no interval. En large your list of different kinds of fruit, rather than your varieties of the same.— Ab. Cult. Tools, and Tool Sheds.—There should be attached to every farm house, a Tool Shed, ca pable of containing all the implements required on the farm, during winter, and at other sea sons when not in actual use. The expense of such a convenience is a mere trifle, compared with its advantages, and would be more than economising in a tew years. We have often been surprised on beholding the ploughs, cans, ox-wheels, harrows, and wheelbarrow’s, exposed in the yard of a f armer, who was too “saving” to pay a couple of dollars a year for a paper, and who perhaps would took upon the annual disbursement tor such a purpose, as a drain up on his exchequer not “to be endured.” And yet, he could complacently behold his tools rending and rusting in an exposed situation without even thinking of the loss, or the saving that might be effected simply by providing a substaniial protection from the airs a’nd rains.— Maine Cultivator. Pouutry Houses.—ls you wish your hens to lay through the winter, have their houses cleaned out thoroughly. Empty the nests of all filth, have them scraped inside and out, and then whitewashed. Place contiguous to your hen house, underroof, a peck or twoof lime, a bush el of gravel, and a toad of sand or ashes, so that they can daily have access to these substances. Gi/e them chopped fresh meat once a week, or oftener, and teed them regularly twice a dayjwith grain and potatoes—always feeding them near the hen-house, so as to attach them to it. Keep their nests at all times well supplied with clean hay, and a tew chalk imitation eggs in each: if you have no chalk, clay will answerevery purpose, provided you whiten the eggs by white washing them. See, too, that your fowls get water regularly. If you follow this advice, you’ll find that your hens will lay nearly as ma ny eggs in winter as they do in summer. — Amer. Farmer. Churninc Butter.—Every good housewife knows that at times, for some peculiar causes, (most generally extra sourness or bitterners of the cream,) much .lifficulty is experienced in making the cream into butter. A lady writer in the Indiana Farmer, recommends the follow ing course in such cases. We have (says the Western Farmer,) for years used soda or sale ratus for the same purpose, and found them usu ally successful:— “I wish to inform my sister butter-makers, of the means I used, which so successfully re moved the difficulty. 1 churned, perhaps, three hours, to no purpose, and then tried to think of something that 1 had read in the Indiana Farm er, or some other periodical. I could not re member precisely, but 1 recollected the reason stated, was the cream being too sour. I then thought of soda, (pearlash, I presume, would do as well,) and dissolved a large teaspoonful in a pint of warm water, and as 1 poured it in, churning at the same time, it changed in a mo ment, and gradually formed into a beautiiul so lid lump ot sweet butter.” We copy, says the South Western Farmer, from our scrap book, two recipes on the subject of curing bacon. The first for hams, we know not how we came by, but would be a little fear ful that the ley would eat up the skin, having observed it eaten, when packed away in ashes not well leached. Hams.—Take 12 lbs. salt, 1 lb. saltpetre, 1 gallon molasses—with this mixture, rub the hams well and pack away as carefully as is pos sible in a cask, to remain one week. Then with 1 bushel ot ashes make a ley, put the hams in it, to remain 3 weeks. Smoke and pack away in tan bark. This for 12 hams. Bacon.—The gentleman who gave the fol lowing to us, some 10 years ago, was somewhat advanced in life, a citizen of Ohio, and one of those who had boated down the Mississippi, in those broad horns, and walked through “the wil derness,” as all this country was then called. We copy his directions, word for word. To en sure good bacon, it must be good corn fed pork, cold before salted, salt rubbed in hard, and let lie for 24 hours. Prepare you pickle, by taking 1 oz. saltpetre, 1 oz. pearl ash, 2 quarts molasses, enough salt to fully saturate water sufficient to cover 2JO lbs pork in a barrel; lhe pork may be packed close in a barrel with a little salt, then pour on the pickle—cold, when any scum rises remove it. Let the pork remain sto 6 w-eeks, then smoke well, then dip into strong ley, andreturn it into pickle-—bugs will nevei trou ble it. Fbr the Chronicle Sentinel. Correspondence between E. P. Alexander, Esy., and Ben. C. Yancey, Esq. Hmaburg, S. C., Dec. 16, 1843. Dear Sir—Having announced to you an in tention, on the part ot Samuel McGowen, to communicate with you respecting an affair ot honor now pending between yourself and him, and you having refused to receive any commu nication from him, I now regard it due to my ell to inquire ot you your reasons for so doing. This requisition is made for the purpose of ob viating any misapprehension of those reasons, or misunderstanding in regard to them, which might arise from their statement otherwise than on paper, together with the object ol enabling me to act properly with regard to theluturc. Yours, respectfully, E. P. ALEXANDER. Ben. C. Yancey, Esq. Sylvania, S. C< December 16, 1843. Dear Sir—To your note of this day, in which you desire my reasons for declining to receive any communication from Mr. McGowen, which you were deputed to hand me, 1 readily and briefly reply. But first, il my impression of our interview is correct, no intention on the part ot Mr, McGowen to communicate with me in relation to an affair of honor was announced.— There was, at the outset, simply an offer to de liver, on your part, a note irom a gentleman 'without disclosing its charac'er or the name of its author. 1 refused to receive the communi cation unless 1 were informed from whom it emanated. The author being, however, given by you, I declined to receive any communica tion from Mr. McGowen, without regard to, or knowledge of, its character. In this impression my memory is sustained by ti e gentlemen who were present. This explanation is made with the view of precluding inferences which may be drawn, but which are not, doubtless, designed by you, from the phraseology oi your note, which was penned in haste. 1 disclaim, like wise, aay knowledge of “an affair of honor now [lading between Mr. McGowen and my sellT’eri which you make mention. But pass ing over immaterial matters, I proceed to com ply with your desire, to assign my reason for refusing euher to entertain, or even to receive, a communisation from Mr. Samuel McGowen. Mr. McGowen well remembers that, during the past summer, I bore to him a notice from Col. John Cunxingham, who had previcusly given his surety of the peace, to appear in Augusta, on a particular day, to receive a challenge; hav ing distinct warning that he would be posted in case he did not appear. He well recollects that he failed to appear, and that he was posted. In his attempt to escape this degradation, he as signs, in the public journal, the miserable pie text lor his refusal to fight, that Col. Cunning ham was not agentlemanl! It wasat this junc ture that I, as a relative ot Col. C., appeared in an article denouncing him as a coward, and virtually charging him with falsehood in as suming that position, which he had previously, in a conversation with me, distinctly disclaim ed, and which disclaimer he now knows he made. Then it was that I expected a commu nication from him, and then did 1 design to meet him. He knows that he was advised to challenge me, and he now feels it was his duty to have done so. But did he do so? No! instead ot that course, which was attended with danger, he preferred, to resort to a newspaper billings gatearticle. By such conduct, he has forfeited the privilege to be noticed by me, and has sealed his own infamy. I appeared again, in an arti cle reviewing the issues—the effect and intent of which was, the superfluous writing under a pic ture which had been twice drawn— this is a cow ard, degraded beneath my notice as a gentle man! It contained no new issues, but was sim ply a review ot former ones, and an indulgence of sarcasms calculated to fortify them. And strange to say, that now, after the lapse of more than four months, during all which time he tamely submitted to accumulated indignities, he desires to make a communication of some sort to me. He knew, when he contemplated the move, that he would not benoticed. Ofthis he has long since been apprized. The lashings ot public scorn have alone goaded him to this late and impotent effort to save himself. Thus, sir, have I assigned my reasons. There can be now no misapprehension as to them. In regard, sir, to the latter clause of your let ter-appertaining to yourself—l give the assu rance, that in declining any communication from Mr McGowen, for reasons satisfactory to myself, 1 mean no disrespect to to you. Yours, respectfully, BEN. C. YANCEY. E. P. Alexander, Esq. Eagle and Phoenix, Augusta, Ga., 1 . December 18, 1813. J Dear Sir—Your reply to my note of the 16th inst., requiring the grounds upon which you re fused to communication from Sam l>iS^fePowen ’ " a \ * ian ded to me about dav- Your re. of that commm.jJ/rtion, I believe, sir, to be in correct , . , , , . But this is entirely immaterial, lor the cir cumstances under which it was offered to lie de livered, could not leave the shadow of a doubt as to the nature of that communication. You cannot now escape from the consequences of re fusing Mr. McGowen’s challenge, by declining to receive from him ami communication, and then pretend ignorance of its contents. This would be an instance of special pleading not to be tolerated among gentlemen. You say that my friend, Mr. McGowen, by a certain course ot conduc', animadverted upon by you with unnecessary severity, “lia< forfeit ed the privilege to be noticed” by you, and has “sealed his own infamy.” Mr. Yancy must understand that I beg leave to differ with him as to Mr. McGowen’s privi lege to be noticed by him; and the reasons as signed tor his refusal to give my triend the sat istaction which, as a gentleman, he has a right to demand, may be satisfactory to Mr. Yancy, but they are neither salislactory to Mr. Mc- Gowen nor myself. As soon as I had an in terview with Mr. McGowen, after your refusal “even to receive his communication,” he deter mined to post you publicly at the lower market in this city, and 1 returned, in leu minutes, to your office in Hamburg, with a written notice for you to that effect in my hand, but an issue with him,.pt Me pest, was prevented by your pre cipitate return to Sylvania. You were not to be found high or low, ard 1 was under the mor tify ng necessity of making the official return of “non est inventus," upon the notice of my friend, who, when I returned, was anxiously waiting your arrival. We then concluded, under all the circumstances, that you had prudently pro tracted our interview of the evening, and de layed giving me an answer until candle light, with a view of preventing the posting on that evening, (it being Saturday,) and tiiat as soon as 1 had left you, you had decamped and re treated to the Sand Hills of Edgefield, to try “what reinforcement you could gain I'rem L.qre, if net, what resolution from despair.” And, as it turned out, it was a prudent stroke ot strain; y; for on that very evening, not hall :.u hour after our return to the Eagle <fc Phoenix, Mr. Mc- Gowen was arrested and bound over to keep the peace of Georgia, and is now prevented from executing his purpose ot posting you in this State. But being determined to have an issue with you, “attended with Hanger,” and as you are under bond to keep the peace of South Car olina, he requires that you appear at Flat Rock, North Carolina, on Christmas day next, for then and there, between the hours of 11 and 12 o’clock a. si., you will be publicly posted, (not published,) as a scoundrel, a liar and a coward. Although you disclaim any disrespect to me, in refusing to receive any communication from Mr. McGowen, yet the grounds upon which you rest that reinsil necessarily involve disre spect to his fi ietid who bore that communication, and who endorses his character as a gentleman to the fullest extent ot the word. You may, therefore, after being posted as notified above, expect to hear from me. Yours, respectfully, E. P. ALEXANDER. Ben. C. Yancet, Esq. To the People of Flat Rock, North C'aro- * lina.ln particular. Your neighborhood is to be made the place of my abuse. lamto be “posted” there on Christ mas day next, by one Samuel M’Gowen, Esq., ot Abbeville village—accompanied by one E. P. Alexander, Esq., of Laurens village, as his friend. Were this flourish to be made in South Carolina, or even in Georgia, as the scenes have been enacted on herborder, where the relative merits and infamv, under the Code of Honor, of Samuel McGowen are distinctly known, I shculd permit it to pass on the principle that a gentleman should not permit himself to feel in sulted by the vulgar abuse of one whom he has degraded. But as they pass beyond these limits, and from under the peculiar influence of a pub lic opinion fully possessed of the facts, I ha ve deemed it well to ask your attention to my let ter, prefixed, of the 16th inst.,—addressed to JUr. Alexander, —as containing my reasons, briefly, tor a refusal to notice Samuel McGow en, Esq. 1 entertain confidence that your senti ment will concur with the honor and chivalry of gentlemen here. If so, my character cannot be aspersed, for a moment, in your estimation by a placard of Samuel McGowen, Esq. And now merely to acquaint you witii the del ieicy, propriety and chivalry ot these men in absolutely requiring me to go to North Cruolin? —a distance of upwards ot one hundred an t filjy miles—to attend their posting. I will state that they were f ully informed of the serious ill ness <>t my wife, whose situation is such that I would not be warranted now in leaving h-r r siigle day or night. I would not, therefore, detract a particle from the honor and chivalry with which they will clothe themselves ingo ing to a.post, when they must know, on princi pies of common feeling, independent of more refined and delicate sensibilities, that their an tagonist could not be there, even were he dis posed to defend. I would here close and pen not a word in re gard to Mr. Alexander, were it not for the coat se and ungentlemanly tone of his letter of the 181A inst., addressed to me in reply, prefixed, in its order above. Though I had been informed that Mr. Alexander was of doubtful caste as a gen tleman, from various sources, yet I had deter mined to treat him with courtesy. That I have done so, I refer to my letter, which, so far as Mr. Alexander is concerned, is courteous, and contains a disclaimer of disrespect towards him. His violation of courtesy, however, to me, by incorporating in his last letter various insults which in a correspondence of that kind alone proclaims him to be destitute of the breeding of a gentleman, has made him fair game and ren dered it necessary that I should dissect his claims. First then as to the fact (see the correspond ence) whether he disclosed the character of the communication he offered to deliver me. In my letter to him of the 16th, in answer to his of the same afternoon, I delicately called his at tention to the error of and charitably attributed the phraseology to the haste with which his note was penned in my office. But in his reply of the 18th, he pertinaciously ad heres to his first statement, and pronounces my “remembrance” incorrect, notwithstanding I had given him the previous intimation that “my memory was sustained by the gentlemen who were present.” And I am now confident that he wilfully perverted the statement, in the first instance, it was not a material matter, for I do not pretend to say I had not my surmise as to the character of the communication: yea—that 1 was as certain as to its intent, as one could be without an actual reading. Mr. Alexander mistakes, therefore, in supposing I wished to pretend ignorance—for he mus. understand that my position is, that I receive no communica tion from Mr. McGowen—whether I know its character or not. But I desired to correct the error, simply because in any matter, I do not wish by silence to seem to assent to a misstate ment, however immaterial. To show therefore, his misrepresentation, I refer to the certificate of Dr. John Carter, of Augusta, B. Elliott Hab ersham, Esq., of Hamburg, and Mr. Thomas Casey, of Alabama. Secondly, I refer to the certificate of M. Gray, Esq., and Mr. C. H. Lindsey, and ask you to compare it with the second paragrah of his let ter ot the 18th. The point is—on the morning of the 16th he pledged his word to a magistrate that he would not bear to me a challenge or hos tile communication in South Carolina, as he would consider it unmanly to do so when 1 was under a recognizance to keep the peace; and in the afternoon of the same day, he bore to me a communication, which I refused, and of course did not read, but ■which in the paragraph referr ed to, he endorses as “refusing Mr. McGowen’s challenge.” This is alluded to simply to show what regard Mr. Alexander has to his veracity or pledge. With reference to the “precipitate” retreat charged upon me in his letter, I refer to the certificate of Mr. Habersham and Mr. Thomas Casey, who were present. The public will see that he has in his letter, therefore, perpetrated a virtual falsehood. Again to exhibit how deeply deficient Mr. Alexander is in the common principles of hon esty, 1 will state a. fact communicated tome, and which, at a proper time, if denied, can be substantiated. On a certain occasion Mr. Al exander proposed to a gentleman to play a game at cards; the gentleman refused—as Mr. Alex ander had been constantly winning his small change, and be played only for amusement.— Mr. Alexander then propcsed, if he would play whist, he (Alexander) would select a particu lar partner and throw off the game into his hands, provided he should have half the win nings: thus deliberately proposing to commit a fraud on his own partner, for the purpose of aid ing his nominal antagonist, but real partner, by which he was to have halt the profits. The proposition was indignantly repelled. This will clearly assign to Mr. Alexander his proper position beneath gentlemen, and I doubt not will degrade him even with professional gam blers. In the latter part of his letter, he says, after I have been posted “as a scoundrel, a liar and a coward,” I may expect to hear from him. A most extraordinary rule thus introduced, by this chevalier, into the code of honor!! In other words, after 1 have been reduced, in Mr. Alex ander’s estimation, to the position of “a scoun drel, a liar and a coward,” I am then on his own level, and he will communicate with me!!! But as to the effect upon me of Mr. McGowen’s posting, I beg leave to differ essentially with Mr. Alexander. And as to his threatened course, of that hereafter—for sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof. BEN. C. YANCEY. Hamburg, S. C., Dec. 21,1843. 1 certify that I was in the office of Messrs. Yancey & Habersham, on the 16th inst., when Mr. Alexander called to deliver a note, as he subsequently stated, from Mr. Samuel McGow en, and remained for about one hour and a half, during which time no disclosure was made by Mr. Alexander of the character of the note which he had proposed to deliver. JOHN CARTER. I certify that I was present during the latter portion of the interview above alluded to, and came in before Dr. Carter left, *nd that no dis closure as to the character ofZMr. McGowen’s cpminnnication was made in jnv presence. I certify that 1 was present during the whole of the said interview, and heahl no intimation whatever of the purport of the note borne by Mr. Alexander. B. E. HABERSHAM. South Carolina, Edgefield District. At the request of B. C. Yancey, Esq., we do hereby certify that Mr. E. P. Alexander was ar rested under and by virtue of a peace warrant, growing out ot a controversy pending between S. E. McGowen, Esq., and Mr. Yancy, in which it was said that Mr. Alexander was acting as the friend of Mr. McGowen, and intended, in that capacity, to bear a challenge to Mr. Yan cey; that when Mr. Alexander appeared before the Magistrate, he stated to the Magistrate, in substance, that he had no intention to bear a challenge from Mr. McGowen to Mr. Yancey in South Carolina; that a breach of the peace was not contemplated by him, and he w ould consider it unmanly to bear a challenge to Mr. Yancey in this State, in as much as the latter gentleman had been recognized to keep the peace. We further certily, that Mr. Alexander further stated, that if he designed to bear a chal lenge at all, it would be delivered in the State of Georgia, and, therefore, would be no molesta tion of the laws of South Carolina. Upon this statement on the part of Mr. Alexander, and with the consent of the gentleman who had tak en out the peace warrant, he (Alexander) was discharged by the Magistrate. We further certify, that the aforesaid warrant was not taken out with the privity and consent of Mr. Yancey, but, on the contrary, he knew nothing about the matter. Upon being informed of the existence of such a warrant, he (Mr. Yancey) used his influence to prevent it, and particularly request ed that Messrs. McGowen and Alexander should not be molested in that way on his account. Given under our hand, this the 19th of De cember, 1843. MATTHEW GRAY, C. H. LINDSY. The subscribers having been present at the interview, on the 16th inst., between Mr. Yan cey’ and Mr. Alexander, certify in relation to that portion of Mr. Alexander’s note, in which he charges upon Mr. Yancey’ a precipitate re treat to the “sand hills of Edgefield,” and that he, Mr. Yancey, “could not be found high or low,” —that they have read it with the utmost astonishment. Mr. Alexander was distinctly informed by Mr. Yancey’, that it was his inten tion to return immediately to his home, the situ ation of his family rendering it necessary for him to do so; and Mr. Alexander, when he re turned with Mr. McGowen’s notice, must have known that Mr. Y. would be found at his resi dence, and not at his office. Mr. Alexander likewise, was distinctly infoimed that it would be impossible for Mr. Yancey’ to send him an answer to his note before candlelight, if so soon, but that there should be no unnecessary delay. To this Mr. A. assented, and at the same time furnished Mr. Y. with his address. THOMAS CASEY. B. E. HABERSHAM. Hamburg, Dec. 20th, 1843. Female Beauty and ornament. The ladies in Japan gild their teeth, and those of the Indies paint them red. The pearl of teeth must be dyed black to be beautiful i- Gugerat. In Greenland, the ladies color their faces with blue and yellow. However fresh the complex ion of a Muscovite may be, she would think herself very ugly if she was not plastered over with paint. The Chinese must have their feet as diminutive as those ot the she goat’s, and, to render them thus, their youth is passed in tor ture. In ancient Persia, an aquiline nose was always thought worthy of the crown; and, if there was any competition between two princes, the people generally went by this criterion ot majesty. In some countries, the mothers break the noses of their children, and others press the head between two boards, that it may become square. The modern Persians have a strong aversion to red hair; the Turks, on the contra ry, are warm admirers of it. In China, small round eyes are liked, and the girls are continu ally plucking their eyebrows that they may be thin and long. The'Turkish women dip a gold brush in the tincture ot a black drug, which they pass over their eyebrows; it is too visible by’ day, but looks shining by’ night; they tinge their nails wilh a rose color. An African beauty must have small eyes, thick lips, a large flat nose, and a skin beautifully black. The Empe ror ot Monemotapa would not change his amia ble negress for the most brilliant European beau ty. The ornament for the nose appears to us perfectly unnecessary; the Peruvians, however, think otherwise, and they- hang on it a weighty ring, the thickness of which is proportioned by the rank of their husband. The custom of bo ring it, as our ladies !o their ears, is very com mon in several nations. Through the perfora tion are hung various materials —gold, silver, stones, a single, and sometimes a great number of gold rings.

PILLS have, in all cases in which they ? have been used, fully sustained their high char acter. Inthe East and West Indies, in Russia, Turkey and Cliina, the HrundrcUi. are ex tensively patronized. The satne may be said of , Mexico and throughout South America. I have * recently received one order for eighty thousand boxes, irom the Governor of a Colony of Portu f'al in tite East Indies. He had used the Bran- J dr th Pills in Madeira, by the advice of the very Reverend, the Canon, Thomas Tolentino de Sil va, my agent at Funchal, and found them so ex Hn anl i'bffi° us physic and purifier of »•' blood, that he became, after much experience r hcn . e ff c * a * properties, one of their best and int l ,? fcß * a< J vocat es,nnd has now introduced them vlrni.r t °.? ny z°. f which he i9thc appointed Go the .! e n^® vernl,lent of Portugal.

By havint, ti e Bhandrcth Pills always on hand, should Bid den attack of sickness take place, they can be tri ven at once, and will often have effected a cure before the physician could have arrived. In Cho lic and inflmnation of the bowels, these Pills will at once relieve, and perseverance in their use accoiding to the directions, will surely do all that medicine can do to restore the health of the pa tient. In diseases arising front the use of mer cury, or from any cause of vitiation, from bad blood or otherwise, their use will produce the most happy results. In all attacks of Meumatwm, in Erysiphilas, Salt Rheum, and in cases of chronic or recent Costiveness, the use of the Brandricth Pills will be productive ofinfinite service; some times being productive of so great a change for the better, as to occasion great thankfulness. In all cast s of indigestion, worms, asthma, diseases of the heart, and in all affections of the stomach and bowels, the Brasdreth Pills will be found a ne ver-failing remedy. To insure the full benefit of these celebrated Pills, they should be kept in the house, so that upon the first commencement of sickness they may beat once resorted to; one dose then is bet ter than a dozen alter the disease has become es tablished in the system. The Brandreth Pills are purely vegetable, and so innocent that the infant a month old mvy use them if medicine is required, not only with safety, but with the certainty of receivin’” all the benefit medicine is capable of imparting. Fe ntales.may use them during all the critical periods of their lives; —the Brandreth Pills will insure their health, and produce regularity in all the func tions of hie. Be careful of counterfeit Pills. How to avoid them No. 1 Security. Each Agent who sells the genuine Brandreth Pills, has a Certificate o/ Agency, which has been engraved nt a vast expense. It represents the manufactory at Sing Sing, on the banks of the Hudson River, and is signed by Dr. Brandreth and his seal stamped upon the paper. No. 2—Security. Above all, observe the labels upon the boxes: Each box of the genuine Brandreth’s Pills has now three labels upon it. The top and the bot tom label containing upwards of five thousand letters in red ink; the words Benjamin Bran drath’s Pills being printed over two hundred limes upon the two labels. No. 3—Security. There arc also upon each label two signature! of Dr. Brandreth—one “B. Btandeth,” and also one “Benjamin Brandreth.” Each box, thcre t re, to be genuine, must have six signatures of Dr. Brandreth upon it. It the box do not an swer this discription, the Pills are not the Bran dreth Pills, but some vile counterloft of them, as all the old labelled boxes have been t ollecteo. Besides the above signs of genttincn ‘es fac similes of the Branureth Pill labels ate upon the Certificate of Agency; therefore compare your box with the labels on the certificate; if it agues the Pills arc true, if it does not, they are false. [ 1 have expended much time, and at least fiv thousand dollars, in perfecting these checks U the sale of counterfeit Pills, and in the hope the' will secure the genuine Brandreth Pills to al I who want them.
