IMPROVEMENT OF LAND.
It is til ways very gratifying to hear of
the improvement of old worn out or riatur- j
ally poor {anas'; because it indicates the !
addiion of solid wealth to trie country, end !
sets a good example to others. It is a ques- •
lion well worthy of consideration, whether ’
a good form may not he made out of the |i
poorest “old field’’ in the old States, at- an
expense much lest than that involved in j
the emigration to, and purchase and prepa- [
ration of, a rich one in the western country; j
more especially if the sacrifices incident ‘
thereto be calculated in the account. Be
that as it may. however, the improvement
of poor land iri all the old States, is an ob
ject of great importan.ee, both to individu
ais and States, to farmers and to.vvns.peo
ple. Let any one look about the environs j
of the city of Baltimore, for example, or I
Washington, or indeed any where in the i
middle and Southern States, and see the j
large trams of waste land that meet his ‘
view at #very turn, and then ask himself!
whether individuals, cities, towns and j
•States, woulfl not all he benefited by the j
improvement of these “old fields,” and their j
conversion to profitable uses. But the j
thing is sc self-evident, that no argument j
can be required to illustrate it. The how, j
not the why, it should be done, is the great
point. How can this poor old field he made j
to produce thirty bushels of wheat, forty of
corn, fifty of oats, or two tons of hay to the
acre, at. a cost that will enable the afore
said crops to yield a fair interest on the in
vestment and a fa.* compensation for the
labor ? That is tl frequent question—
and ten thousand <. tees answer, “ ay,
how /”
It is not intended }~ioio to answer this
question, but to make a few remarks ap
plicable to it, for the purpose of preparing
the way for the answer at a future, but not
distant day. We often hear of this and
that case of improverrfent by this and that
man, and of the wonders they have perform
ed in the still more wonderfully short time
of so and so many years. These announce
ments are always very gratifying to every
body ; they are eagerly sent forth to all the •
world in the newspapers, and are returned
in grateful echoes upon the improver’s de- j
lighted cars. And this is all right. It acts
as a most powerful excitant upon others
1 hat had been more dilatory ; it stimulates
and encoura* -s them Jo do likewise. But
unfortunately they are always, or almost
always, if not quite, accompanied by the
well known fact, that the improvers were
in possession of wealth, and that enabled
them to accomplish the wonders spoken of.
They were not obliged to earn the bread
they were eating, by the sweat of the brow,
at the, very time they were making the im
provements. They were not obliged to
raise the interest on the debt incurred in the
purchase of that very piece of land, by
hard work, at the very time they were ditch
ing, draining and liming. They had the
means wherewith to improve, and the time
wherewithal to do it in. And is it won
derful, that with these attributes of ability
in full possession, they made the improve- ,
rnents ? Would it not have been wonder- .
ful if they had not ?
Still it is a good thing, no matter by ]
what means it is accomplished; it is an act j
that deserves praise ; just as does the prop- J
er appropriation of any and every other sac- j
ulty we possess, and no more. Such im- ;
provers have simply performed an act of
duty, which they owed to themselves, their
families and their country—what else?
But show to the world a farm once impov’
erished as naturally poor, that has been
made fertile or productive, out of its own
resources, by the judicious management
and industry of the farmer, afid that has in
the meantime maintained that farmer and
his family, besides paying some interest,
and possibly principal of the purchase mon
ey, and all in tho course of five or oven ten
years ; then the world will have something
to bold up to its rural inhabitants as an ex
ample that they ALL can follow. How
evef commendable the former class of im
provers may be, the latter is infinitely
more so. The former has purchased, a
valuable property, the latter has made
one. Farms may be found in many a part
of the country that have cost their owners
almost as much as it would to v *qve paved
tht?i*entire surface with silvr /dollars —
and *yet they are not a whit more produc
tive than many others that never cost an
extraneotis cent. Many a farm may now,
be seen'in any part ofour country, that five j
years since, would scarcely pay for culti
vation, but now yielding full, even heavy
crops, that have never felt the influence of
a particle of manure or other fertilizer, that
it had not itself produced either directly or
indirectly.
This is the kind of improvement our far
mers want ; this is this the only kind that
can be generally adopted. The men that
,Tia*e money enough to improve land, are
generally those that will make some other j
use of it ; and the few that will appropri
ate it to that object are rather exceptions
than constituents of the rule. Much more
good, therefore, will result from the publi
cation of instances of self-improved lands,,
and the processes of the improvements, e
ven though but a moderate degree of excel
lence be obtained, than can possibly pro
ceed from the dissemination of facts in re- j
lation to paid for improvements; because
tiie one proceeds from the proper applica
tion of industry and intelligence, and can
be universally followed as an example— ,
the other from the concentration ofextrane
ous means, and can be imitated by but ve- ,
ry few.-- No one can object to the applica
tion of foteign means to this object : on the |
contrary, the- more they are thus applied |
the better. It is good for the, individual j
most concerned ; it is good for tlm country j
. that the gold in his cotters should be made
i toenrieh the land. But do nth set him up j
;as an example to ho followed\v these who t
bayu not the means 10-do likewise; anti ver
! y fl vv have ; not one in ten thousand prob j
ably—for it is rather tantalizing for a poor t
i man to be told that be can make his land j
jus rich and .productive as his neighbor !
j Dives, if he will expend five or ten thou-'I
sand dollars in its improvement! Rather I
tell him how to do it by the means he pos
scsses, bis industry .for, that is all his eapi- i
| tal, and lay before film instances with de- !
I tails, of other cases iliat have succeeded
by the same means. The man that shall
raise from impoverishment a piece of land j
in this way, that is by his Own industry out |
of his own resources, descri es more of his i
country than nil the mere politicians that [
ever lived since the world was formed. |

“ The skilful physician shall lilt up his head,
iti the sigl it of the groat men the earth, he
shall be iu admiration ; for liffTaQi prepared hie
medicines out of the herbs of the Jield; and he
Physicians, medical men, and philosophers,
have all agreed that nature has prepared a reme
dy for every disease. A little reflection must
convince every one of the truth coiitaiued in
i hie remark. Dr. Spencer’s Pills are a vegeta
ble remedy, and all-powerlul in removing dis
ease. Thoy may be taken with impunity at all
times without regard to diet or exposure, and
without: the debilitating effects consequent on
taking oilier medicines. They have the united
tcsuAmy of the whole medical profession in
their iavor, and from their decision there is no
appeal. Persons wishing to purchase cannot be
trie prtioularto get Hpencer’s Pills, as there are
scores of unscientific preparations put on sale al
most evhry.day, of doubtiul efficacy.

Talladega Syringe, Talladega Cos., Ala.
August 17th, 1842-
This is to certify, that 1 have been afflicted
with Sick Headache, Dxjfepsia, and Liver Com
plaint, and Gpstiveness tor the last eight or nine
years, during which time I had talien, as well as
I recollect, about sixty boxes of Beckwith’s
Pills, twelve boxes of Peters’ Pills, a>
ber of boxes of Champion's and Ljduftfath’s
Pills, all of which afforded me *|t little or lie
relief. At last, I was rocon“ss;,fod to try Doc
tor Hpencer’s Vegetable-t'ilfs, and wej.i.l -Dtp;
fori never had but one attack of the Sick llead
ache after I ummer.ced taking the Pills, (now
about hit ufonths,) and I candidly confess) that!
have derived more real benefit, irom tlie use of
Spebcer’s Pills, than from all tlie other Medi
cines and Pills that 1 have ever taken, and 1 would
earnestly recommend them to all, as being in
iny opinion the best medicine in use for all lin
gering complaints. The Pills have done me so
much good, that I would not feel willing to -he
without them for five dollars a box; and I can
not but feel very grateful to Dr. SpenCCr for Im--
vmg prepared such a valuable medicine, and the
distribution of it is conferring a very great favor
on the public, as it is a thing ot the utmost im
portance that every family should have a supply
of Doctor Spencer’s truly valuable Pills ooi; ,-

Greensbob’o, Ala. Feb. 4,1843.
I certify, that-in the summer of 1842, I had a
severe attack of Fever and Ague, and was for
seme time under the treatment of a physician,
but received no benefit from hie prescriptions—
my disease continued to increase in the frequen
cy and severity of its attacks, I at last had re
course to Dr. Hull’s Fever and Ague and Anti-
Fever Pills, and in using half a box, was entirely
cured, and have remained in good health ever
since.
I afterwards had -in my family several cases of
Fever and Ague, and have in every instance
made use of Hull’s Pills, which have always im
mediately effected a cure.
Dr. Hull’s Pills, require no puffing where they
; are known and where they are not, a single trial
j is sufficient td insure their universal adoption.—
