BV H. W. I.ONCFKtJ.OW,
'piijs is ine place. fc'tand still my steed,
Let me review the scene,
And summon fromthn shadowy Past
The forms that once have been.
The Past and Present re-unite
Beneath Time’s flowing tide,
Like footprints hidden by a brook,
But seen on either side.
Here runs the highway to the town,
There the green lane descends,
Through which I walked to church with thee
Oh! gentlest of tuy friends!
The shadow of the linden trees,
Lay moving on the grass;
Between them and the moving boughs,
A shadow, thou didst pass.
Thy dress was like the lilies,
And thy heart as pure as they,
One of God’s holy angels
Did walk with me that day.
I saw the branches ot the trees
Bend down thy t meh to meet,
The clover-blossoms in the grass
Rise up to kiss thy feet.
“Sleep, sleep to-day,tormenting cares,
Oi earth at.d lolly born
Sole mly sangthe village choir
On that sweet Sabbath m irn.
Through the closed blinds the golden sun
Poured in a dusty beam,
Like the celestial ladder
Ot the ancient patriarch’s dream.
And ever and anon, the wind,
Sweet-scented with the hay,
Turned o’er the hymn-book’s fluttering leaves
That on the window lay.
Long was the good man’s sermon,
But it seemed not so to me,
For he spake of Ruth the beautiful,
And still I thought ol thee.
Long was the prayer he uttered,
But it seemed not so to me,
For in my heart I prayed with him,
But still I thought of thee.
But now, alas, the place seems changed;
Thou art no longer here;
Part of the sunshine of the scene
With thee did disappear.
Though thoughts, deep-rooted in my heart,
r Like pine trees dork andalgch,
Subdue the light of noon, and breathe
A low and ceaseless sigh,
brightens o’er the Past,
~ —i. As when the sun, concealed
Behind some cloud that near us hangs,
Shines on a distant field. [ Gift for 1845.
The Lucy Walker.—The Cincinnati Bul
letin says:
“ We hear related numerous incidents con
nected with the accident, which ate interesting,
but we have no room for many of them to-day.
Mr. Wren, of Yazoo, Mississippi, was thrown
from the boiler deck, and tell near the bow ol
the boat in a state of insensibility. When he
recovered his senses, he saw his little son, six
orseven years oi l, in the rear of the boat, the
flames raging round the boy. The father,
unable to rise, watched the movements of the
son with the greatest anxiety. Soon he saw
the boy leap overboard. The river was full
of planksand mattrasses, and the boy went from
fragment to fragment until he succeeded in
getting upon a mattrass. He floated on the
mattrass until saved by a rope from the Gopher.
The father saw his rescue with feelings we do
not attempt to decribe. Aman, his wile, and
four daughters were saved without injury,
though in different ways and places. Their
meeting must have been most joyous. A little
girl was found clinching to the wreck when the
flames were so near that she had to dash water
against one side of her face to protect it from the
intense heat. A man was on the hurricane
deck, with his wife and a little daughter, at tjie
time of the explosion; he dropped the former aft
into the yawl, and she was saved, but with a
sprained ancle; he thew the latter idto the
stream, and then plunged in and saved it by
swimming.”
From the 2Vt?c Monthly Magazine.
Abroad and at Home—or the two-faccd
Husband*
[There is too much truth in lhe picture here
presented. There are too many such husbands
in the world.]
Those people who at the club and elsewhere
are acquainted with Mr. Wagstaff declare, he
is the most generous and agreeable creature
that ever turned out ot the city. He arrives,
his jolly face beaming with good humor. He
has a good word fur every body, and every man
a good word for him. Some bachelor says,
‘ Wag, my boy, there is a white-bait party at
Greenwich; will you be one?’ He hesitates.
‘I promised Mrs. Wagstaff io be home at din
ner/ says he; and when he says that, you may
be sure he will go. If you propdse to him a
game of billiards in the afternoon he will play
till dinner, and make the most ludicrous jokes
about his poor wile waiting till his return. If
you ask'him to smoke cigars he r.*rl. eo till
morning, and goes home with a story to Mrs.
W., which the poor soul receives with despe
rate credulity. Once she used to sit up for
him; but to continue the practice .would have
killed her. She goes to bed now, and Wagstefl
reels in when he likes.
He is not ill humored. Far from it. He
never says an unkind word to rhe children, or
lo lhe cook, or to the boy who blacks his bools,
or to his wife. She wishes he would. He
comes down stairs exactly three minutes before
office time. He has his tea and his newspaper
in bed. His eldest daughter brings the paper
in, amt his dear wife appears with the tea. He
has a kind word lor both, and scrubs the little
girl’s fresh cheek wilh his bristly beard, and
laughs at the joke, and professes a prodigious
interest in her lessons, and in knowing whether
Miss Wiggles the governess is satisfied wilh
her; and before she finishes her answer, he is
deep in the folios of the Times, and does not
care a one farthing piece what the litth girl
says. He has promised lo tak * the child to
Astley’s any lime these four years. She could
hardly speak when he promised it. She is a
fine tall lass, and can read and write now; and
though it was so long ago, has never forgotten
lhe promise about Astley’s.
When he is away from home, Wagstaff talks
about his family with great affection. In th'
long days when he is a wav, their mother, God
help her! is telling them what a good man their
papa is—how kind and gencrims—and how
busy he is what a pily! he is obliged lo wor k
so hard and stay way from home! Poor creature!
Sure Heaven will pardon her these lies, it any
lies are pardonable. Whenever he says he will
walk with her, /Arabella dresses herself in the
gown he likes, and puts on a pink bonnet, and
is ready to the very minute, you may be sure
How often is it that be is ready to the minute ?
How many scores and scores of times has he
left the heart-sick girl? -not forgetting her in
the least—but engaged e sewhere with a game
ot billiards or a jolly friend and cigar—and per
haps wishes rather to be at home al! lhe lime—
but he is so good namred, such a capital fellow.
Whenever he keeps his appointme; t--Hea
ven help us! sh • bi ightens up as if it were Par
adise co iring to her. She looks with a trium
phant air at the servant who opens the door, arid
round about at the neighbor’s win tows, as if she
would have all the world know that she is walk
ing with her hushand. Every now and then
as she walks—(it is but twice or thrice a year,
for Wagstaff has his business on week days,
and never gets up till one of a Sunday)—every
now and then asshe walks with him, the delighted
creaturegives a skip, and squeezes his arm, and
looks up in his face, she is so happy. And so
is he, too, foi he is as good a fellow as ever
breathed—and he resolves io lake her out lhe
very next Sunday—only he doesn’t. Everyone
of these walk days is noted down in the poor
soul s little calender of home as saint’s days.
She talks of them quite fondly; and there is not
one ot he: female friends, whom she won’t visit
t for weeks after, and to whom she will not be
sure to rind some pretext for recounting the
wonderful walk.
Mon dieu, ladies—all the time J was descri
bing that affair at Durognon’s those odious
French women, and their chatter, and their
ogling, and their champagne, I was thinking of
Arabella faraway in the distance and alone. I
declare upon my honor, she was never out of
my thoughts for a single minute. She was the
moral of the Partie Fine—the simple, while
robed, spotless, meek-eyed angel of a wife—
thinking about her husband—and he among the
tawdry good-for-nothings yonder! Fizz! there
goes the first champagne ci rk, Mr. Wagstaff is
makings lender speech to Madame Virgini?.
At that moment Arabella is up stans in the
nursery, where the same moon is shining in, and
putting her youngest boy to bed.
Bang! there goes the second cork. Virginie
screams—Fitzsimons roars with laughter—
Wagstaff hob-nobs with the old lady, who gives
a wink and a nod. They are taking away the
fish and putting down the entrees.
At that moment Arabella has her second child
between her knees, (the little one is asleep wilh
its thumb in its mouth, and the elder is begin
ning to rub her eyes over her favorite fairy tale,
though she has read it many scores of times.)
Arabella his the child between her knees, and
just as Wag is clinking his glass with the old
lady in London, his wife at Bognor says tome
thing to the child, who says alter her.
“ Dm I bless by dear papa and presently he is
in bea too, and sleeps as soundly as his little
sister.
And so it is that these pure blessings are sent
—yearning alter that fellow over his cups.—
Suppose they reach him! Why, the spotless
things must blush and go out again from the
company in which lhev find him. The drinking
goes on, the jokes an d fun get faster and faster.
Arabella by this time has seen die eldest child
asle’p in her crib, and is looking out at tht
moon in silence, as the children breathe rc-un
her a soft chorus of slumber. Her mother b
down stairs alone, reading ‘ Blair’s Sermons,
—a high-shouldered, ho. k-nosed, lean, mora
woman. She wonders her daughter don’t come
down to tea—there is her cup quke cold, will
the cream stagnant on the surface, and her work
basket by its side, with a pair of man’s slipper
nearly done, and one lazy scrawl from her hus
band, four lints only, aud leu days old. But
Arabella keeps away, thinking, thinking, and
preferring to be alone. The girl has a sweet
soft heart, and little sympathy with the mother’s
coarse, rigid, strong-minded nature. The only
time they quarrel is, when the old lady calls the
son-in-law ab: ute; then the young one fires up
and defends her own like a little Amazon.
What is this secret of love? How does it
spring? How is it.that no neglect can kill it?
In truth, its origin and endurance are alike ut
terly absurd and unreasonable. What secret
power was it that made this delicate minded
young creature, who had been bred up upon the
purest doctrines of the sainted Mrs. Chapone,
who nad never thought about love, who, simple
soul, had been utterly' absorbed in her little dai
ly duties, her piano forte practice, her French
lesson, her use ot the gl bes, her canary bird,
and her Magnall’s questions—what, I say, is it
that makes this delicate girl all of a sudden ex
pand into a passion of love lor a young sugar
baker, simply because she meetshim three limes
rid ng a gray mare on Clapham common, and
afterwards (the sly rogue I) on half a dozen oc
casions at her aunt’s at tea ? What is it that
makes her feel that a young sugar baker is the
fatal man with whom her existence is bound up,
go through fire and water to marry him; love
him in spite of neglect and indifference; adore
him so absurdly, that a half-hours kindness
irom him more than balances a month’s brutali
ty? O, mystery of woman’s heart!
Wagstaff, so splendid with his dinners and so
generous on himself, is not so generous at home.
He pays the bills with only a few oaths; but
somehow he leaves his wife without money.—
He will give it to any body rather than to her;
a fact of which he himself is, very likely, una
ware at thisminute,or of the timidity of his wife
in asking for it. In order to avoid this asking,
the poor girl goes through unheard of economies,
and performs the most curious tricksol avarice.
Site dresses herself tor nothing, and she dresses
her children out of her own frocks. Certain
dimities, caps, pinafores, and other fallals, have
gone through the family; and Arabella, though
she sees ever such a pret y thing in a shop win
dow, will pass on with a sigh; whereas her
Lacelot is a perfect devourer of waistcoats, and
never sets his eyes on aflaringvelvetthatstrikes
his fancy bat you will be sure to behold him the
next week swaggering about in the garment in
Pail Mai'. Women are ever practising these
petty denials, about which the lords of the crea
tion never think.
I will tell you what 1 once saw Arabella do
ing. She is a woman of very high breeding,
and no inconsiderable shire of family pride;
well, one day on going to Wagstaffs house, who
had invi.ed a party of us to Blackwall, about a
bet he had lost, 1 was, in the master’s absence,
ushered into thedrawing room, which is fur
nished very fine, and there sat the lady of the
house at her work table, with her child prattling
at her knee.
I could not understand whatmade Mrs. Wag
staffblush so—look so entirely guilty of some
thing or other—fidget, answer a travers, and re
ceive an old friend in-th is strange and inhospita
ble way.
She, the descendant of the Smiths of Smith
field, of the Browns of Brownha., the proud
daughter ot the aristocracy, wars making a pair
of tromsers far her eldest son. She huduledthem
away hastily under a pillow—but bah! we have
keen eyes—and from under that pillow the but
tons peeped out, and with those buttons the se
cret—they were while ducks—Wagstaffs white
ducks—lds wife was making them into white
ducklings for little Fred.
The sight, affected me. I should like to have
cried, only it is unmanly; and to cry about a
pair of little breeches I—l1 —1 should like to have
seized hold ol Mrs. Wagstaff and bugged her to
my heart; but she would have screamed and
rung for John to show me down stairs; so I dis
guised my feelings by treading on the tail of her
spaniel dog, whose squealing caused a diver
sion.
But I shall never forget those breeches.—
What I Wagstaff is flaunting in a coat oi N ogee’s
and his son has that sweet, humble tailor. Wag
staff is preparing for Blackwall, and here is his
wife plying her gentle needle. Wagstaff feasts
ofl plate and frothing wine, and Arabella sits
down to cold mutton in the nursery, with her
little ones ranged about her. Wagstaff enjoys
—Arabella suffers. He flings about"his gold;
and she tries to stave off evil days by little sav
ings of meek pence. Wagstaff sins and she
forgives—and trusts, loves, and hopes on, in
spite ol carelessness and coldness, neglect and
extravagance.
This is the moral of the last story. O, ye
Wagstaffs of this work!, profit by it. O, ye gen
tle, meek angels of Arabellas, be meek and gen
tle still. If an angel can’t reclaim a man, who
can ?
Alpaca.—Probably tew ladies who wear and
admire the beautiiul fabric cal’cd Alpaca, are
aware of the source of its production. The
Alpaca is a wool-bearing animal, indigenous to
South America, and is one ot four varieties
which beargeneral points of resemblance to each
other. The Lama, one of lhe varieties, has
been long known and often described; but it is
only within a few years that the Alpaca has
been considered of sufficient importance to mer
it particular notice.
Nine-tenths of the wool of the Alpaca is
black, the remainder being partly while, red anil
grizzled. Il is ot a very long staple, often reach
ing twelve inches, and resembles soft glossy
hair; which character is not lost in dyeing. The
Indians in the South American mountains, ma
nufacture nearly all their clothing from this wool,
are enabled to appear in black dresses, without
the aid of a dyer. Both the Lama and Alpaca
are perhaps, even of more value to the natives
as beasts of burden than wool bearing animals,
and their obstinacy when irritated, is well known.
The importance ol this animal has already
been consideied by the English, in their hat
woollen and stuff trade, and an essay on the sub
ject has been published by Dr. Hamilton, of
London, from which some of these details are
collected.
The wool is so remarkable, being a jet black,
glossy, silk like hair, that it is fitted for the pro
duction of texile fabrics differing from all others,
occupying a medium position between wool and
It is now mingled with other materials in
such a singular manner, that while a particular
dye will! effect those, it will leave the Alpaca
wool with its original black colour, and thus
giving rise to great diversity.— lns.
The CiNNAAiON Tree.—Mr. Cushing, our
Minister lo China, in an account ol the island
of Ceylon, makes the f illowing statements re
specting the natuie and lhe cultivation of lhe
Cinnamon tree :
First, as to cinnamon cuUitre. This produc
tion in its perfect state is almost a monopoly of
lhe island of Ceylon, and its growth is confined
to a very nanow tract of on the southwest
side of the Island, chiefly in lhe neighborhood of
Colombo. This does not seem to be the re-ult
of political arrangement merely, but to arise
hum some inappreciable virtue in the combina
tion of climate, soil, and water, and their rela
tion to each other io this island of Ceylon, and
in this part of if. Some of these peculiarities ii
is easy i G indicate without its being so easy to
understand why the particular consequence
should follow.
The tract 01 country in which alone the cinna
mon grows to perfection, is situated on the sea
coast exposed to ft e air of the ocean. It is in a
climate of equable tempera ure, which isatonce
hot and moist—hot from its tropical position,
and moist from the ftequency and plentitulness
ot rains. The general level ot the country is
low in the midst of tresh water lakes, divided
from the sea by a small riband of land. And
the water in the soil ot the cinnamon gardens is
of extraordinary purity, so as to be for that rea
son much in request in the neighboring city as
a beverage. This exact combination ot influ
ences does not occur any where else in the is
land, at least does not in the same degree.
But the crowning fact is the nature of the soil.
It is in great part pure quartz sand of a greyish
to a pearly white lustre. ' A specimen of it be
ing carefully dried by Dr. Davy was found to
consist ot 90.5 silicious sand, 0.5 vegetable mat
ter, and 1 water. This circumstance impresses
one very strongly on visiting the cinnamon gar
dens, it seems so strange to see a plain of pure
quartz sand whitened in the sun and covered
over with a luxuriant growth ol tiees. In richer
soils the aroma is said not to develope itself in
the same concentrated form.
Perhaps the name ol garden, which is applied
to the cinnamon plantations, may lead to an er
roneous conception ot their nature. The cinna
mon tree (laurus annamoniwn,) in its real state
grows to the height of about twenty feet; but the
batk, which is the only valuable part, is found
to lose much ol its highly aromatic quality in
the mature trees. Accordingly, the trees are
cut young, when the stems are only five or six
feet long, and less than an inch thick at the larg
est end. The bark is then stripped or peeled off
in long pieces like willow bark, scraped careful
ly to remove lite cuticle, and laid out to dry, du
ring which it curls up in quills, as they are call
ed, and it is then ready for the market, but im
proves by keeping for a while. The wood is
good for nothing but fuel. Owing to the mode
ot cultivation, this cinnamon garden has very
much the appearance of scrub oa-kj-the rich
bright green leaves ot the small trees being strik
ingly in contrast with the white plain in which
they grow.
It is possible that the fragrance of the cinna
mon gro. cs may have been sensible to voyagers
along the coast ot Ceylon; but Ido not believe
that it often happens; no such fact was perceiv
ed on board, the Brandywine. There is very lit
tie of this fragrance perceptible in the gardens
themselves; and the idea of its extending out to
saa "is laughed al in Colombo.
Astonishing Performance on the River —
Sailing til Gmt P<nnr.—A most singular feat
was yesterday successfully perlormed on the
river between Vauxhall ’ and Westminister
nridges. Mr. Barry, one ot the clowns of Ast
ley’s Theatre, had announced bis intention ol
sailing from Vauxhall to Westministet in a
washing-tub drawn bv two geese. A large
crowd assembled on both sides ol the river to
vitness this strange undertaking. At about
half past 3 o’clock Mr. Barry, with several ol
lisfriends and attired in his clown’s dress, ar
tve.l at Vauxhall Bridge, and, all things hav
ing been prepared, he al once stepped into his
ub an.l started upon his voyage. The tide be
,ng in his favor be went along safely enough,
and had little difficulty in making the geese
keep a proper course. An immense number of
boats accompanied this water party, so that the
ihitvplavoyaguer was in iid'daifter of dlxlWhing."
Mr. Barry disembarked from his vessel at West
minister Bridge, and proceeded ntnidst loud
cheers to the theatre.— Londmtpoper.
Remarkable Repeating Watch.— ln the Acade
my ot Sciences at St. Petersburg, in Russia, is
a repeating watch about the size of an egg.
Within is presented the Redeemer’s tomb, with
the stone at the entrance, and the sentinels; and,
while a spectator is admiring this curious piece
ot mechanism, the stone is suddenly removed,
the sentinels dropdown, the angel- appear, the
women enter the sepulchre, and the same chant
is heard which is performed in the Greek Church
on Eastern eve.
CUTTING TIMBER.
Ma. Bcckminister,—Sir: One fact I wish
to state with regard to the time to cut limber. I
am satisfied from aeffial observation, that tim
ber cut in the month ot June, and perhaps July,
will last twice, if not four times as long, either
under or above ground, as that cut in winter,
and it will not powder po. t.
Yours respectfully,
West Newton, July \’3, 1844. John Stimson.
[There are many causes that tend to prove
June a better time than winter to cut timber.
The bark must be pealed immediately, to let off
the sap, or timber cut in June will rot as last as
any other.— Ed. Moss. Plough ]
Great Yield of Pumpkins— Chas L. Pierce,
of this town, raised the present year from a sin
gle seed, 15 pumkins weighing 384 lbs. The
largest weighed 31} lbs , and the average of the
whole was 25} lbs. each. Ihe vine, including
all the brancues, measured 035 feet in length.—

It is unnecessary to set forth the reasons that
have led to this design. They are many and
will present themselves to every mind. But to
the above the Editors have to add a word. It is
known that the same enterprise has been two or
three times before attempted by others; and that
they failed as signally as they 'wertr weakly be
gun. We care not to investigate causes, but
their failure has stood greatly in the way of the
present undertaking. We can only give un
qualified assurance that this Review will appear
every month for one year at least from January,
1845. Whether it shall continue longer must
depend npon the support of those who can see
the importance ot such a work. This support
we earnestly request, believing that the work
will be in all respects able and useful.
The Review will be published in the City ol
New-York, to be called “ The American Re
view—A Whig Journal of Politics, Literature,
Art and Science.”
Terms: Five Dollars a year; paid on re
ceiving the first numbe-.

REPORT.
Lincolnton, Ga., August 12, 1544.
& THE COMMITTEE selected to attend
the examination of the pupils under the caro,
supervision and instruction ol Mr. Joel T. Mc-
Ginty, Rector of the Salem Academy, Lincoln
county, Ga., beg leave to make the foliowing Re
port of said exam nation, to all whom it may
concern:—
The Committee, in compliance with the re
auest and invitation of the Trustees of the Aca
demy, attended the examination held on the 18th
ultimo. It would seem needless to mention that
the large number of attending visitors fully con
vinced our minds, that the school even now was
in the enjoyment of no trivial reputation. We
are glad that, in connection with this strong evi
dence, after having patiently and attentively lis
tened to the very interesting exercises of the day,
we are enabled to afford to the public generally,
and more especially to the patrons of the school,
still more powerful, more conclusive testimony
of the perseverance, ability, and distinguished
worth of the Rector of the Academy, and the do
cility, learning and laudable endeavors of his ta
ented pupils.
We were glad to perceive that a noble emula
tion reigned throughout the classes, all striving
evidently to excel rn their different studies, and
showing by the promptness of their answers tnat
they had well attended to their cuties during lhe
term. For all this, we would now award them
the meed of praise to which we know they are so
justly entitled.
It has been the misfortune of some of us to
have been prevent at examinations, where naught
save the ignorance of both teacher and pu il was
displayed, where all seemed to be sunk into a
deep, deplorable, aye, shameful lethargy—the
teacher en the one hand, having no regard what
ever for the cultivation of the youthful minds
under his control and management; the pupil on
the otheu, equally insensible to the benefits to be
derived from a good education. Such, we are
able io testify, was not the case here. -Energy—
the life, the soul, the ai! of every undertaking—
was here apparent.
Neither teacher nor pupil feared for themselves
in their responsible situations before the enlight
ened assembly : tie eyes of the auditors, beaming
with delight, were but indices of their hearts as
they ushered the response grateful to ail— ‘‘ Weil
done, good and faithful servants.”
The unde*signed cannot in justi e omit men
tioning the freedom and fairness displayed during
ihe examination. We are fully satisfied that the
teacher has taught all he professes to teach, and
iis pupils have not failed to imbibe the moral
truths, sound doctrine and wisdom he laid before
them. No fiaudjiere—no imposition up m the
communitv and patrons of the school. We take
a pleasure in testifying that all was submitted to
us candidly, openly and fairly.
We would heg leave to conclude this our brief
report, by tendering our thanks to the teacher for
his services to the community and to the coun
try ; and for himself and school, we pray even
still greater success.

raNHE subscriber offers for sale, Cot-
A ton Seed of very superior quality. The
original stock was procured in Texas, and culti
vated on his plantation in Newton county, for
the laet three years, with extraordinary success.
The yield is much larger, and the quality superior
to the Petit Gulph or other kinds of Cotton usu
ally grown in this section of country.
Planters who purchase a supply of the seed
may rely upon sufficient increase in product of
the first crop to refund the outlay for seed.
Planters who take an interest in improvements
of this sort, are referred to the annexed certifi
cates, and the Cotton raised from the seed may
be seen at the warehouses of Adams & Hopkins
and Clark & Roberts.

Dear Sir—l regret it was not in niy power yes
terday, when I saw you, to give you any opinion
with regard to a small lot of co*ton I have grow
ing from seed presented to me last spring by my
friend, John W. Graves, Esq. Since then, how
ever, i have been to my plantation and made com
parison oi it with my crop of cotton, and now
lake pleasure in saying to you, it is a superior ar
ticle in noint of fineness and length of fibre, con
t eining in«?te lint on the seed, and will yield much
more from the same quantity of land planted.
1 am dear sir,
Your obedient servant,
[Signed] Johnston.
Georgia, Newton County:
I hereby certify that 1 obtained fronl John W.
Graves, of this county, a sack of Cotton Seed,
(which he represented of superior quality intro
duced from Texas,) which I planted last spring,
and find to exceed my most sanguine expectation.
I planted it two or three weeks after my other
cotton, (which is the Petit Gulph,) and notwith
standing the season w s dry and unfavorable
throughout the year, (the growing season) yet it
is by far the best cotton I ever made. I think by
the time it is alt gathered, the best part will yield
2000 to 2500 pounds per acre. My neighbors who
have seen it are of the same opinion. From the
trial I have made, 1 believe it will yield double as
much as mv other cotton on land ot the same fer
tility. ' [Signed] Jackson Harwell.
24 th October, 1814.
Georgia, Morgan County:
This is to certify that I am neighbor to John T.
McNeil, Esq., and that he last spring got a load
of Texas Cotton Seed from John W. Graves,
Esq., of Newton county, and planted them on
what I consider average land of his farm ; aad
from frequent observation of the crop, with his
other cotton, (which is the Petit Gulph.) I do be
lieve it will far excel any other cotton 1 have ever
seen raised in this section of country. And I
also believe that the staple excels any other I
have ever examined, pr to fineness and color.
[.Signed] John P. Evans.
This will certify that I acted a«= overseer for
Air. John T. McNeil for the year 1844. My know
ledge of fanning induces me to believe that the
Texas Cotton, raised by Mr. McNeil this year, is
a very superior article, and with me preferable to
any other cotton I have evenaised. It is of long
and fine staple, and well bolted, and cas iy picked
out, and has withstood a drought, this year belter
than the Petit Gulph Cotton. It is, in a word, a
valuable cotton I have ginned eight bales of the
Texas Cotton on Mr. McNeil’s Carver Gin, and
find that it yieldsone pound of clear cotton from
three of seed cotton ; and from my experience of
thirty years in cotton growing, I have never rais
ed any’l think equal to the Texas Cotton.
[Signed] Allison Kent.
Augusta, October 30, 1844.
John IP. Graves, Esq.:
Dear Sir—Having been called on by you to
make a statement in relation to your Texas Cot
ton, we take pleasure in saying, that for the last
two or three years we have received at our ware
house your cotton crops. The quality has inva
riably proved very superior, both as to color and
length of staple. On sale, it has always brought
the highest market price. We consider it a very

It is bylaw made the duty of all civil officers to demand the pedler’s license, and if he refuses to
show it, to take him up, and deal wilh him as the law directs. A bare receipt for the payment of
#SO into the Treasury is not a sufficient license. The license contains the oath, the authority, to
peddle, a description of the person of the pedler, and an extract from the penal code in relation to
trading with slaves.
