A SUCCESSFUL EXPERIMENT IN
CORN PLANTING.
On a recent visit to the farm of B. It-
Smith, Esq. near the race-course, I was
gratified at his success in planting this im
portant staple of our country, affording an
additional evidence of the superior advan
tages of scientific culture over that of the
common routine pursued for ages past by
the Planters of our country.
Mr. Smith is not professionally a Plant
er, but a Merchant,devoting his few leisure
hours to the cultivation of his farm. Dif
fering from those who regard book farming
(as it is called) as only another name for
visionary speculations, ho is a constant rea
der of Agricultural Journals—endeavors to
profit by the discoveries of others, and pos
sessing a sound judgment, he is able to de
cide on such modes of culture as are best
adapted to the nature of the soil and the
plants he cultivates.
On the last year much surprise was ex
pressed by Planters that Mr. Smith should
have succoeded in raising 67 bushels and
18 quarts of Corn to the acre. He then
stated that his experiments were not yet
completed—that the ground, by judicious
management, would admit of still closer
planting, and he hoped yet to succeed in
raising 100 bushels to the acre. He doubt
ed the old theory, that what is called firing
in corn was the result of close planting, but
believed that it was occasioned by the pov
erty of the land ; he believed that the hil
ling of the corn was not attended with ben
efit, and. that if the land was thoroughly
prepared, previous to planting, it required
but little other attendance than that given
by the improved plough called the culti
vator.
The land on which the present crop is
planted was originally poor and much ex
liausted by injudicious cultivation. It was
thoroughly ploughed and manured with sta
ble manure, in proportion of 60 single cart
loads to the acre ; the corn was soaked in
salt petre, rolled in gypsum and planted on
a flat surface in double tows, the steins
eighteen inches apart in row., of four feet.
Very little use was subsequently made of
the hoe ; the cultivator was run through it
a few times ; the luxuriance of the growth
kept down the grass and rendered all fur
ther culture unnecessary. The ears are
now filled, and the crop is considered safe
from any vicissitudes of the season. The
field has the appearance, in its rich green
foliage, of a vigorous growth of a young
forest. It. is the finest field of corn I have
ever beheld, and it is believed by good jud
es that the product will not fall far short of
100 bushels par acre.
I request you to insert this notice urm. r
a hope that the Planters in our vicinity m:
visit the well conducted Farm of Mr. Smith
examine and judge for themselves. An
experiment has also been made on the same
farm on the effects of calcareous manures,
which may also be seen to advantage. B.

THE AGRICULTURAL INTEREST.
There is certainly no more important in
terest in the country than that from which
the community obtain their bread ; there
can be none more important than that
which forms the basis of the prosperity of
every other interest, and without which e
very other interest must fail and sink to
ruin. Such certainly is agriculture, the
foundation upon which every interest and
the whole prosperity of the country rests.
It is very natural then, and not only natu
ral but inevitable, that every other interest
in the community should follow the fof
lunes and be governed by the particular
state of this individual interest; that when
it flourishes and is in healthy and prosper
ous state, every other branch of industry
should also be blessed with prosperity, and
that when it declines these should also de
cline with it. Why then, says one, were
i.ot times highly prosperous when cotton
was selling at from fifteen to twenty cents,
and other agricultural products were of like
value ? We answer, because permanence
of prices, and an equality of interests, are
essential ingredients to the prosperity of a
community. Times were not prosperous,
because the prices of agricultural products
were too high ; they had a disproportion
ately high value, as compared with other
products of labor. This superinduced a
wantonness and carelessness in business,
and an extravagance in living ; a bloat,ml
plethora of the body politic, without steady
action or vigor, instead of the well-rounded
muscles and well-strung sinews of good
health, and mature strength. The conse
quence was, that the higher the prices, the
more deleterious to the people at large—
and had cotton gone up to fifty dollars the
hundred weight, it would not have done the
community (as a whole) a pin’s worth of
good. Prodigality, extravagance and care
lessness, would more than have kept pace
with the prices, as they always do in cases
of sudden prosperity, the community would
have been none the better for them, and
when prices had reached and found their
level with other products, as they inevita
bly were obliged to do in the course of trade
the people would have been left with their
habits of extravagance, loose manner of do
ing business, and their debts upon them—
to which is not unfrequently added a laxity
\of morals and manners more injurious and
incurable than all the other evils combined.
Vhere unremitted industry, economy and
Vtdence were exercised, fortunes were ac
yulated rapidly, but the cases of this
t \acter were so few, that, in general,
I’Vprices did not in the least promote the
? r \rity and happiness of the people.
Trade has now experienced a revulsion, j
and prices are too low, particularly the I
price our great staple, cotton, dispropor ;
tionately low as compared with other com
modities in market. The consequence is,
that the agricultural interest languishes
and is distressed. The agriculturist has
paid out all he can pay, to meet debts con
tracted when trade was brisk and prices
high, but from the decline of prices has
been obliged to pay from double to four-fold
of his produce as compared with what he
would have paid three years ago to meet
the same amount of debt.
1 Mkilforts to pay induces him to increase
thelmiount of his planting, in the only sta
ple from which lie can realize money, and
the extended cultivation of this staple aqd
superabundance of it beyond the calls for
consumption, has a constant tendency to di
minish the price fully in proportion to the
increase of the culture. Hence the plan
ter realizes no more now from the produce
of fifty bags of cotton than lie formerly did
from fifteen or twenty, and lienee he is able
to pay no more of his - debts from that a
mount now than he formerly did from the
lesser amount. The question then is, how
is this evil to be remedied ? .How is agri
cultural labor to be bestowed, to give it a
greater value, and yield a larger produce ?
This is the great desideratum now among
planters and whoevercan solve the problem
will do more for the planter than would the
discovery of the philosopher’s stone for man
kind. We do not pretend to such knowl
edge ourself, but we do think that one step,
and that not an unimportant one, towards it
would be a larger diversity in the applica
tion of agricultural labor. We make too
much cotton, and too little other commodi
ties, which, if the production would not put
much money into our pockets would at least
save some from going out of them. For
instance, the silk culture might be exten
ded and improved, and gloves, stockings,
shawls and dresses made, to the saving of
many a dollar for these articles in the
stores. Sugar and molasses might be made
from the beet and corn stalk, and coffee (if
the expression is allowed) from rye and
the sweet potatoe—much could be saved in
this way also. Cotton bagging could be
made as well and as good at home as abroad
by the women of the house ; and a cotton
rope is also as good as one of hemp, if the
same labor is bestowed on it to make it as
good. As to horses, mules and bacon, a
planter should be ashamed to buy either at
the present time, and all can be raised on
a plantation with ease and in abundance.
It is nonsense in the ears of a sensible plan
ter to tell iiitil that it takes so much corn
and fodder to raise them that it is cheaper
to purchase, when he very well knows that
v ry little of either is necessary, and but
for a -hart period of the year, and where it
is, it is only so much labor divested from
tiia culture'of cotton to that of corn to make
both more val uable, to say notiiing of keep
fig his money in his pocket. We arc no
planter and know but little about planting ;
; but we have no doubt that a good planter
j and a good economist could point out fifty
j Melos, such as the above, necessary on a
| plantation or in a family, which might be
i made at home, to the diversifying of of la-|
j bor and saving the money of the planter.
Never get into a passion because others
will not agree with you in opinion.

[VEGETABLE PILLS|
A BLiiLiC BLESSING. *
r| J HESE Pills have long been known and up.
X predated, for their extraordinary and im
mediate powers of restoring perfect health to
perrons suffering under nearly every kind of dis
ease to which the human frame is liable.
They are particularly recommended to all
those persons who are afflicted with any kind of
a chronic or lingering complaint, as there is no
medicine before the public which has so natural
and happy effect upon the system in correcting
the stomach and liver, and to the formation of
healthy chyle and thereby purifying the blood.
They are acknowledged by the hundreds and
thousands who are using them, to be not only the
most mild and pleasant iii their operation, but the
most .perfectly innocent, safe and efficient medi
cine over offered to the public. Those who
once make a trial of these Pills, never afterward
feel willing to be without them, and call again
and again foffnore ; which is sufficient proof of
their good qualities.
HEADACHE—SICK 01t NERVOUS.
Those who have suffered and are weary of
suffering with this distressing complaint, will
find Spencer’s Vegetable. Pills a remedy at once
certain and immediate in its effects. One single
dose of the Pills taken soon as the headache is
felt coming on, will cure it in one half hour en
tirely.
Asa remedy in summer and bowel complaints,
they display their wonderful powers to admira
tion, and are far superior to any thing in use for
these complaints.
In Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint, they stand
unrivalled. Many have been cured in a few
weeks, after having suffered under the dreadful
complaint for years.
In Habitual Costiveness, they are decidedly
superior to any Vegetable Pill ever brought be
fore the public .; and one 25 cent box will estab
lish their surprisifig virtues, and place them be
yond the reach of doubt in the estimation of eve
ry individual.
They are invaluable in#ervous and hy’pochon
driacal affections, loss of appetite, and ali com
plaints to which females alone are subject.
They are mild in their action, and convey al
most immediate conviction of their utility from
the first dose. They may be taken by persons of
any age; and the feeble, the infirm, the nervous
and delicate are strengthened by their operation,
because’ they clear the system of bad humors,
quiet nervous irritability’, and invariably produce
sound health. *
Upwards of three hundred and seventy thousand
boxes of these inestimable Pills have been sold
within the last twelve months in three States a
lone, and more than three times the same quan
tity in other States.
As an anti-bilious medicine, no family should
be without them. A single trial of them is more
satisfactory than a thousand certificates.
TESTIMONIALS:
Columbia co., New- York, Sept. 12, 1841.
Dear Sir :—I take much pleasure in bearing
testimony to the efficacy of y’our Piils in remove
ing Bile from the Stomach ; and in all complaints
emanating from that source. I would also say
that their mildness and certainty of action, ren
der them a safe and effective purgative for weak
ly individuals; and that they may be given at all
times without apprehension of any of those inju
rious consequences which so frequently attend
the application of Calomel, or Blue Pills.
On the whole, I consider your Vegetable Pills
a valuable discovery. Verv respectfully,
R. E. TOMPKINS, m. and.
Extract of a letter, from a highly respectable
Planter, in the State of Louisiana, and resi
dent in New-Orleans, under date,
September 28, 1841.
There was several Bilious attacks on-my plan
tation last summer, and I never knew an instance
in which your Pills did not answer every pur
pose, when given in the first commencement of
the disease ; and there lias also been six or Sev
ern different cases of Chills and Fever, and your
Pills have cured every casg without the slight
est disposition to a return of the Chills ; and I
think your Pills the best remedy for the com
plaints they are recommended to cure than any
medicine I liave ever used. Every family should
always liave these Pills on hand. I have no
doubtthat your Pills have saved me $l5O Doc
tor bills this season. ,
My overseer had a daughter who had the
Dropsy, and she has experienced great relief
from the use of one box of the Pills. I also gave
one box to my brother-in-law, who had taken al
most every thing for Dyspepsia, and they have so
far relieved him that he thinks one box more
would cure him entirely ; he says they are tho
best Pills to cleanse the blood that he knows of.
Yours, very respectfully, T. 11. ANSON.

j PROSPECTUS OF THE
SAVANNAH REPUBLICAN
To our Friends in the Interior.
DURING the last throe years the Savannah
Republican has been much increased in
size, and its editorial and working department
have been so organized that it has been in our
power to distribute a vast amount of useful in
formation among our readers in tho low country,
the number of whom has more than doubled.—
Our circulation is not so great in the interior,
however, as it ought to be. Hitherto we liave
been completely cut off’from the up-country, but
now, by the completion of the Central Railroad,
wfe are brought near to it, and Savannah is from
necessity and will be its commercial mart. Here
tofore we have made no efforts to extend our
circulation in the interior, but the time has now
come, and we call upon our frieuds of the State
Rights Party of Georgia to lend us a lielniny
hand.
Our future course may known from what we
have dope. To those who have not read our col
umns it may be well to say that we shall couture
ue to prosecute the war which we commenced
near three years ago upon “the People’s very
Democratic Central Bank.” The neck of this
monster is now under the heel of the people,
and its promises to pay are received at their just
discount. We now point to the borrowers from
this institution, who are suffering under its griud
mg efforts to collect money, in a time of unpre
cedented scarcity. We shall continue to de
nounce tho Milfedgeville Clique, who have so
long lorded it over our rights and fattened on our
substance, while they have bankrupted the State
and, not content with this one of their number
has embezzled about $30,000 of the public mon
ey. We shall denounce in bold terms such pal
try subterfuges as have been practised by the
Loco Foco party, and expose the worthlessness
of McDonald lea and coffee, the increase of taxes
under the promise to diminish them, the improv
ident, dishonest, corrupt legislation, by which, a
foul stain has been cast upon the escutcheon of
this State—such legislation as any set of men
ought to blush to be concerned in. We shall
occupy a moderate, defensible ground in relation
to a Tariff —equally free from direct taxation for
the support of the United States Government, on
a people already oppressed, and its opposite of
excessive protection. The present tariff, with
its high and protecting duties on woollens, cot
ton and iron, we object to. We desire to see a
tariff for revenue, with only slight countervailing
and discriminative protection.
Such are some Os the general objects for
which we labour, and shall continue to labour,
and we invite all friends to the good cause—that
of law and order—to aid us in our efforts.
With regard to the News and Commercial De
partments of the paper, we are determined that
nothing shall be wanting. For our future dili
gence in this respect, we will only refer to what
we have already done. We purchased the Re
publican with a determination to build it up and
to make it the business of our lives, and we see
nothing to discourage us in our efforts, but eve
ry thing to urge us on.
To the politicians of our party especially, it
must be a matter of importance to extend the
circulation of the Republican, because we are
of course and of necessity, the medium of com
munication between the sea-board and all the
other papers of the State. As we perform our
| duty to the public and our own party, so will the
I people and that party fare well or ill.” One thing
all may rest assured of, even if our previous
course was not already a guarantee of it, —wo
I will pursue an independent, straight-forward,
, honest course—or at least, that which we be
j lieve to be so, and that is synononymous with
the moral principles of the Whig party. In short,
I we will do every thing which lies in our power
jto enlighten and instruct our readers. We may
| not always come up to the demands of party ex
actions, but when we deviate from them, be sure
that we feel that our country has higher claims
j and should always be served before party.
We feel that we have a right to cal: upon our
Whig and State Rights friends in the interior
to furnish'us the means of increasing our influ
ence. Let each of our present subscribers pro
cure us one or two more, aud the thing is done.
We pledge ourselvqs to give a good account of
them.
We prefer this mode of communicating with the
public to sending out an agent,” as the .expense
i attending such a proceeding is generally too
heavy to be borne. We intend however, in a
1 few days to publish a circular embodying the a
bove, copies of which we shall take the liberty
of forwarding to some of our friends in the interior.
| We have only to add the terms of subscrip
tions, which are, for the Daily Paper $lO, and
for the Country, (tri-weckly,) $5, per annum.—
Payments in all cases to be made in advance or
what we consider equal thereto, a City reference.
