Female Resolution.
NJ I will never see him more,
, Since thus he likes to ream:
And when his cab stops at the door,
John, say I’m not at home!
He smiled last night when Julia smiled,
(They must have met before;)
11 thus by her he is beguiled,
I’ll never see him more.
I’ll sing no more the songs he loved,
Nor play the waltzes o’er:
Nor wear the colors he approved—
I’ll never please him more!
I’ll conquer soon love’s foolish flame,
As thousands have before;
Look strange whene’er I hear his name,
And ne’er pronounce it more!
The plait of hair I must resign,
That next my heart I’ve wore:
He, too, must yield that tress of mine
He stole when truth he swore!
The miniature he used to trace,
And fed romantic o’er,
I’ll tear from its morrocco case,
And never kiss it more!
This ring, his gift, I must return,
(It makes my linger sore;)
Then, there’s his letters—those I’ll burn,
And trampicon the floor!
His sonnet that my album graced,
(My tears shall blot it o’er;)
The leaves together thus I’ll paste,
And ne’er behold it more!
I’ll waltz and flirt with ensign G.
(Though voted oft a bore:)
tn short, I’ll show my heart is free,
And sigh for him no more:
If we shou’d meet, his eye shall shrink
My scornful glance before;
Heavens! that’s his knock! here, John, I think
I’ll see him— -just once more!

Sheridan and his Son Tom.— “ The two She
ridans,” says Kelly, were sopping with me
one night after the opera, at a period when
Tom expected to get into parliament.
“I think, father,” said he, “that many men,
who are called gieat patriots in the house of
commons, are great humbugs. For my own
part, isl get into parliament, I will pledge my- ,
self to no party, but write upon my forehead
in legible characters, “To be let.”
“And u ider that, Tom,” said his father,
“write—‘U .furnished.’ ”
Tom took the joke, bat was even with him
on another occasion.
Mr. Sheridan had a cottage about half a mi e
from Hounslow Heath. Tom being short of
cash, ask d bis father to let him have some.
“Money I have none,” was the reply.
“Be the consequence what it may, money
I must have,” said Tom.
“If that is the case, my dear Tom,” said the
affectionate parent, “you will find a case of
loaded pistols upstairs, and a horse ready sad
dled in the stable—the night is dark, and you
are within half a mile of Hounslow Heath.”
“I understand what you mean,” said Tom,
“but I tried that last night. I unluckily stop
ped Peake, your treasurer, who told me that
you hid been beforehand with him, and had
robbed him of every sixpence he had in the
world.”— Wraxall.
Depending on Circumstances.— Said Dinah
to Sambo, as they were taking a loving pro
menade, “Sambo, how you tink de mariage

“Well I’ll tell you; dat are ’pends altogeddcr

Orlando Lassus, whose great musical tal
ents adorned the last of the sixteenth century,
w rote the following humorous epitaph for him
self, which is actually inscribed on his tomb
stone:
A child I sang the treble part,
A youth, the counter claims my art,
A man, the tenor was my place,
But now, I’m stationed in the bass.
The adjutant of a volunteer corps, doubtful
whether he had dis'ributed muskets to all the
men, cried out, “all you that are without arms
will please to hold up your hands.”
A merchant, a few miles from Petersburg,
Va. opening a hogshead of hardware, and com
paring its contents with the invoice of it, found
a harnmar less than was charged therein.—
This he mentioned to a young Irishman, his
assistant, who immediately exclaimed, “och.
my honey, don’t be after bothering your head
about that, did’nt the nager take it out of the
hogshead to open it with?”
A foreigner just arrived observed an owl,
which a farmer had brought it: for sale.
“Pray what do you ask for this turkey?”
said the foreigner.
“Why,sir, this is an owl.”
“I don’t care how ould it is—only teli me
your price.”
“A child has been born in France with a
bocis, like that of an elephant, instead of a
nose.”
The little fellow intends to stay some time
with his friends, as he brings his trunk with
him.— Old Joke.
McDonald Clarke's Taste.— “l hate those
gasping sick-turkey-locking creechers, with
wasp-like bodies, and mincing feet’ Give me
a girl, says he, “with a waist like a cotton-bag
and a foot like a flounder!”
The best joke we have heard in a long time,
was cracked by a village preacher. He was
preaching on a very sultry day, in a small room
and was much annoyed by those who casual,
ly dropped in after the service hal commen.
ced, invarivbly closing the door after them.—
His patience being at length exhausted by the
extreme oppressiveness of the heat, he vocifer
ated to an offender—“ Friend, I believe if I was
preaching in a bottle, you would put the cork
in!”
A gentleman had a board put on a part of
his land on which was written, “I will give
this field to anvone who is really contented;!’
a id wh 'ti an applicant came, he said, “are you
c • iteat ■<!?” The general reply was. “I am.”
“ Phen.” rejoined the gentleman, “what do you
want of my field?”
Absence of Mind.— This complaint appears

of lite, and by warding ofi, at! tar as practica
ble, the progress ot Cii •micul dceomposiiion
VV hen vegetables or fruits are gathered for
use or preservation, the air of th-; atmosphere
which surrounds them is continually depriving
them of caroo.i, and loriaiug th., carb •■fie acid
gas. The water they cm.tni,), hv its Hofr.mi .g
qualities weakens the afii fity oftimir elements;
and heat produc- the P ff ct by ddali.iy
their parts, and promoting the di eornposi
effect both of air and wap. r. ILmce drvi g
in the sua or in ovens, is one of the umst oh
viol’s modes of preserving vega tables fir use
as a food, or for other perpvses, hut not for
growth it the drying pioce.-s is carried s > f,-.r
as to destroy the pri .ciphi of’life in seeds, roots
or sections of the shoots of ligeimus (wo idv)
plants. Potatoes, tor. ips, a d other eseulmit
roots may be preserved i'rem ant an i to t!u>
following summer, by burying them in perfect
ly dry soil which shall b; at th * same time at
a temperature but a few degre s above the
freezing point. Corn [grai. ] may be pr. s-rv.
ed many years by first dryi g it th >reugh'y 1.1
thesun,and bury ii g it i i dry cool pits, and ei>.
closing these so as e/iccimjiy to »xeln !e the
atmospheric air. In a short time the air
w thin is changed to carbo.nc arid rias, in
which no animal will live, and in which, with
out the addition of oxvgen or atmospheric air,
no plant nr seed will veg tale. The e- r.i is
i thus preserved from decomposition, from i i
• sects, vermin, and from vegetation, i i a far
j more effectual manner th,an ii can be in a <rra
nary. In this way the Romans preserved
their corn in chambers ivwn out of dry rock,
the Moors in the sides of - hills, the Chi esc at
the present time ii deep pits of dry soil, and
the aboriginal natives of Africa, in earthen
vessels hetmetricallv sealed. The origin of
these practices are all obvious imitntio s of
what accidentally takes place i i nature, from
withered grassy tussocks t > th • hedgehog’s
winter store; and hence the origin of h. rb,
seed and root rooms and cellars, and packing
plants and seeds lor sending to a distance.—

Jerusalem Artichoke.— This plant is in a
peculiar manner fitted to grow u. Men he shade.
It can, therefore be cultivated in woods; and
it is sometimes sown in England to show shel
ter for game; the plants being left to reproduce
themselves annually from tubers.
Taking into account the hardy qualities of
this plant, its productiveness and easy culture,
it may be doubted whether it merits the uni
versal neglect into which it has fallen. Grant
ing its inferiority as an article ol food to the
plants now cultivated for our domestic stock,
it must be of some importa ce to hive a plant
that can be so easily raised and on soils so
low in the scale of fertility.

Method o f preserving young trees from being
injured by Hares or Habits— Bv William Pat
erson, Esq. of Iberdeeu, K- nt, E.ig.
Hares, rabbits aud rats have a natural an
tipathy to tar; but tar, though fluid, co itract
(when exposed to the sun and air for sum:'
tune) a great dryness, and very binding qmdi
ty; and if applied to trees in its mitura i .state
will occasion them to b • bound. To remove
the difficulties, tar is of so strong a savor, that
a small quantity mixed with other things in
their nature loose and open, will give the whole
mixture such a degree of its own taste ai d
smell, as wiil prevent lures, &c. from touch
ing what it is applied in.
Take any quantity of tar, and six or scvi-u
times as much grease, stirriug and mixing
them together; with this composition brush
the stems of young trees, as high as the h ires,
&c. reach, and it wdl eff dually prevent their
being barked. Ibi lieve it a plantation of ash.
(which they are very fin d of.) were made in
a rabbit warren, this mixture would c rtm-'lv
preserve it. These animals do great mischi; 1’
amongst floweri' g shrubs, and are particular
ly fond ot Spanish broom. Scorpion Senna,
and evergreen Cystissus. I have hid those
shrubs eaten down to a stump, but as 'he mix
ture cannot well bo applied t•> them. I have en
closed their branches with a new tir twine,
putting it several times round th ■ shrub, which
has had the desired eff ct. T.rtwi e bv be
ing exposed to the a;r and rain, will lose its
smell, consequently must be renewed as occa
sion requires; but the mixture is always to
be preferred where it can be useful.

Ilcssiun Fly.
I he fly itselt is a small insect with long
bluish wings, and may b : seen hoveri g ab tit
over a wheat field in a warm dav in the fall,
after the wheat is up aud has got into sto ding
—it then deposits its eggs, from one to five or
six, on the lower leave wh re it joins the sta'k.
lhe eggs, when first laid, are about the size
of the point of a pin and white; they grow
until they become of the size and shape of a
flax-seed, when th y change th it color to a
brown, and appear in shape and color of a fl.i
seed. H hile in the white state they appear
to extract nourishment from the stock ot wheat,
fi’om their wounding it, the eggs continue in
the flax-seed state in the stalk at the junction
of the lo wer leaf, until the next spri ;g, and ev
ery stock that has an egg in it turns to a dark
green and perishes before the next, spring. 11.
the spring, after the wheat begins to grow, no
eggs can be found in the live wheat, but on
examuiing, there will b ; foil id dead stools of
wheat, and on taking these up y<»u will find
the egg at the root of the stool where it was
deposited, appearing like a fla.x-se <l. When
the weather becomes warm in the spring these
eggs hatch, and the little creature crawls up
out ot the ground, and begins to lay eggs on
the surviving wheat close to the stalk on the
lower leaf, where the egg remains, goi igthro’
its changes until fall, when it conu s out a fly
again, and comm -nces on the ir w sown wheat.
The fly will lay its egg io Rye, but the rye
stalk grows strong and fust, and bursts open
the husk leaf where the egg is I. i 1 and the
egg I. Ils out and perish s. 11 will lav its eggs
in Oats and Timothv, hut not tod > much 1 jnrv.
1 bis fly is a very Jiff rent 1 s ct from h fly
thathislatelvmu.de i s appearance-in New
England a d N w Y rk state, or the Mai v
laud fly—in both these last cas us the fly lays
its egg in the grain while in a milk state, and
the worm eats the milk and meal out of the !
gr.’i:. bat in nocaej has th 'gi ii . b en r: t ;i.
by tha Ht-ssi.m fl; or found i c ; !' ;be: .■
flies may depredate in lhe same field in th- ir
own way. What is the rems fl? ft crmrmt
be in applying any thing to seed sowing,
as lhe fly lives on the root or ; e: .r ir. instead
ot the car er grain. Even it> >d ;il!;.gi; inis
failed this last season as well as kite sowing—-
V. ill not lime do it if properly applied, as a
very small portion of limo is a quick and er r
tain death to many insects? A pint of quick
lime mixed with 100 bushels ct" wheat wi l de
stroy every weave! in it, and if blown from a
tan into a barn it will destroy or drive them all
out.
Lime is a certain and quick death to fleas,
&c. and it is said that, by s>wt::g over I lie
grain it will destroy the egg in tho grain.
Supposing a farmer when he ii.-u id the fly was

NOTICE.
The publication of the above, as stated, will
be commenced in July. The trifling delay that
took place in the regular publication of the
.vlarryatt Novels, and which was occasioned by
the frequent reprints of the early numbers, mid
the uncommon severity of the winter, which
prevented the making and transporting of pa
per, need not be expected m the Bulwi;k No
vels. _ The Subscriber did not anticipate the
very favorable reception that Marrvatt would
meet with. He thought the sale would be large
—but not enormous—and is now better able to
judge what number of copies it wdl be neces
sary to print; added to which, the publication
will be commenced and concluded before the sc-
verity of winter commences.
| In another point, the experience of the pre
< vious publication has suggested an improvement
lin a future. Where more than one .Subscriber
resides in a place, the numbers will be sent flat,
and not folded, T hey will then bo received by
the •■'ubseriber in as good order as if taken im
mediately from the Proprietor’s Office. This
i will tie a great improvement.
In January next another republication of some
I celebrated modern Novelist will take place, eith- j
! er James, Cooper, Irving, or some other of e
j qua! repute. It is determined by the present
i Publisher, that the American public shall lie ,
furnished with the most beautiful, and nt the
'same time cheap, edition of modern Novelists
I extant.
‘Lj-' As soon as an autlierilic'i'cJ Portrait of
i Captain .Warryatt can be obtained, the Subscri-
I her will have it engraved for his edition of the
.Uurr.att Novels.

to the cause of the Botanical System
of Medicine, entitled
In launching forth upon the world, and as
suming the responsibility of such a design, we
aro aware that, many obstacles will naturally
arise as obstructions to this great undertaking;
and that we shall subject ourselves to the con
tempt ol some, and the ridicule of others. Eat
believing as we d”, that not onlyourowninter
e.'t, as wo.I as the interest oi many ot our fellow
beings, is involved in the promulgation of cor
rect knowledge upon the subject of this per
secuted system of Medical Reform, we are de
termined to bear the reproach that may be heap
ed upon us, looking tor a rewaid in the success
which may attend our exertions.
Ibis publication is designed tor the dissem
ination <,i truth in support ot'the Botanical Sys
tem ot .Vied;cine; and such other information
upon tae treatment and cure of diseases, as
may be for the general good of its readers.
Wiih this brief and comprehensive view of
the subject, v.e shall leave the design rvilh the
friends of the cause in Georgia. It is (lhe
system) evidently increasing both in interest
ami numbers', but, cannot flourish to anv great
extent, unless assisted by the circulation of a
well conducted periodical. And we do hope,
that, the friends of the cause will not cease their
efi’orts until the storm ot prejudice and persecu
tion has subsided, and a copy of this work is
found in every family.
ihe work she'd be issued, as soon as SOO
subscribers are obtained. It shall appear on
superior medium paper, containing 16 octavo
pages per week, at $5 per annum, payable on
the reception ot the first number. Thus mak
ing a volume of 832 pages per year.
lhe services of a gentleman oftallents and
medical attainments will be secured as editor
oi the above work. And we assure the public
generally, that no pains shall be spared to make
it bofn usi ful and interestmg.
Vi e request that subscription papers may be

DYSPEPSIA
AND
LIVER COMPLAINTS.
The Patent Vegetable Mediciny. Stom-
ACHIC.E et HepatxcjE, formed by chymical
analysis and synthesis of several proximate ve
getable principles, are universally acknowl
edged to have totally eclipsed the pretensions
of every other remedy, and superceded the ne
cessity of every other mode of treatment whero
ever the above diseases are found to exist, as
well as in enlargement of the Spleen and in
Jaundice.
Among the symptoms ofDyspepsia and Liv.
er-complaints, are flatulency, sourness or burn
ing in the stomach, melancholy, irritability,
disagreeable taste in the mouth; great irregu
larity of appetite, which is sometimes voracious,
and at other times greatly deficient: thirst, fetid
breath, nausea, weakness of the stomach, acid
eructations, palpitation, drowsiness, irregulars
ity of the bowels, pressure on the stomach af
ter meals, pain in the head, dizziness or ver
tigo; confusion of mind, attended with loss o
mernory, a gnawing in the stomach when emg,
ty, chilliness, affection of sight and hearins
pain and weakness in the back, languoi, did
turbed sleep, cold feet, and hands, tremor, un
easiness in the throat, cough, pain in the aide
or breast, &c.
These Medicines hava been found so effec
tual, in removing the complaints for which they
are recommended, that physicians frequently
have recourse to them far their patients, after
having exhausted all their skill, to little or no
purpose.
DR. PETERS
Vegretable Anti-Billioiis Pills
Are the cheapest and most approved Family
Medicine ever offered to the Public They
are extremely mild in their operation, neither
causing sickness of the stomach, nor any un
pleasant sensation in the system, as is too fre
quently the result from medicines given to act
upon the bowels. They act specifically upon
the Liver, when in a torpid condition, carrying
off a large quantity of bile, through the influ
ence of the excernent function, which, if suf
fered to remain in the system, would produce
either Jaundice, Liver Complaint, Bilious Fe
ver, Fever and Ague, or some other grievous;
bodily affliction. In all cases of torpor of the
bowels, they act like a charm. In recent cass
es of Dyspepsia, they are a certain cure. Ma
ny persons who were subject to violent attack
of sick head-ache, have been much benefited,,
and several perfectly cured in a few weeks by
■ their use. They are highly recommended as
-1 a preventive aud cure of Bilious
