J LITERATURE.
REPUBLICATION of
The London Quarterly Review,
The Edinburg Review,
L-
The North British Review,
The Westminster Review, nnd
l * Blackwood’s Edinburgh Maga-
ZINE.
The wide spread fame of these splendid periodi
cals renders it needless to say much in their praise,—
As literary organs, they stand far in advance of any
works of a similar stamp now published, while the
, political complexion of each is marked by a dignity,
I candor, and forbearance, not often found in works of
a party character.
They embrace the views of the three great parties
i in England—Tory, Whig and Radical—Black wood
5 and the London Quarterly are Tory; the Edinburgh
r Review, Whig; and the Westminster Review Radi
, ca l* The North British Review is more of a reli
gious character, having been originally edited by Dr.
» Chalmers, and now, since his death, being conducted
3 son-in-law, Dr. Hanna, associated with Sir
David Brewster. Its literary character is of the
. very highest order. The ‘ Westminster,’though re
printed under that title only, is published in England
under the title of the Foreign Qnarterly and West
minster, it being in fact a union of the two Roviews
formerly published and reprinted under separate ti
blcs. It has, therefore, the advantage by this combi
tation, of uniting in one work the best features of
both as heretofore issued.
The above Periodicals are reprinted in New York,
immediately on their arrival by the British steamers,
in a beautiful clear type, on fine whitepaper,and are
faithful copies of the originals, Blackwood’s Magazine
being an exact fac-sirnile of the Edinburgh edition.

EARLY COPIES.
Our late arrangement with the British publishers
of Blackwood’s Magazine secures to us early sheets
of that work, by which we are enabled to place the
entire number in the hands of subscribers before any
portion of it can be reprinted in any of the American
journals. For this and other advantages secured to
our subscribers, we pay so large a consideration, that 1
we may be compelled to raise the price of the maga
zine. Something may therefore be gained by sub-,
scribing early. ' *

Engravings.

i IN ADVANCE.
The character and object of the SOUTHERN
CULTIVATOR are so well known, wherever it has
been read, that the Publishers deem it scarcely ne
cessary to say anything in reference thereto in sub
mitting a Prospectus, for the SEVENTH VOLUME
To establish an
AGRICULTURAL JOURNAL
worthy of the South, and her varied and diversified
products, industry and resources, has. been their
highest ambition; and although their efforts have been
but poorly rewarded, they flatter themselves their
labor has not been in vain. The services of an
Editor, Dr. LEE, one of the first practical and scien
ufic Agriculturists in the Union, have been secured
at a heavy expense ; and the work is embellished by
a most accomplished Artist, whose labors are exclu
sively devoted to its illustration. Indeed, no effort nor
expense has oeen spared to render the work most
useful and instructive to those for whose exclusive
benefit it is designed. Having performed fully as
we think, our duty, it remains to be seen whether
the Planters of the South will “ put their shoulders
to the wh6el” and aid us and themselves in this great
work of improving the husbandry and meliorating
the social condition of the whole people. We think
they will, and it is our confidence in their intelligence
and liberality which has sustained us through years
of unrewarded toil. The Work should be in the
hands of and read by every one who has the charge
of a family in the Southern States; and to show how
earnest we are in our desire to excite an effort among
our friends to extend its circulation and usefulness
we offer the following splendid Premiums to those
who may interestthemselves in procuring subscribers :
$750 in Premiums.
the highest number of subscriberF, not less
than one hundred, sent by any one individual, a
premium of twenty-five dollars.
For the next highest number, not less than
eighty, twenty dollars.
13*For the next highest number, not less than
sixty, fifteen dollars.
|pf For the next highest number, not less than
fifty, ten dollars.
the next highest number, not less than
forty, five dollars.
These Premiums will be paid in the most approved
Agricultural works, and will apply to each of the fol
lowing named ten States, viz : North Carolina, South
Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Tennessee, Alabama,
Mississijmi-Lepisw.’OTc are Usf of premiums, ir

will receive the work at the Club price.
The premiums to be awarded on the first day of
MARCH, 1849.
All persons who desire to enter the list for Pre
miums must notify us on forwarding the first names.
The first number of the Seventh Volume will be
issued an the FIRST OP JANUARY, 1849. It will
be published monthly, on fine paper, in quarto form,
each number containing SIXTEEN PAGES of close

CHRONICLE & SENTINEL

MISCELLANY.
i
* John Ilunyau.
To the name of Baxter and Howe must be
' added the name of a man far below them in sta
tion and in acquired knowledge, but in virtue
their equal, in genius their superior, John
Bnnyan. Bunyan had been bred a linker, and
; had served as a private soldier in the PaHia
meatary army. Early in his life he had been
fearfully tortured by remorse for his youthful
sins, the worst of which seem however, to have
been such as the world thinks venial. His keen
sensibility and his powerful imagination made
his internal conflicts singularly rrible. He
j fancied that he was under sentei c < r’reproba
tion, that he had committed blasphemy against
{ the Holy Ghost, that he had sold C I*l , that
he was actually possessed by a detr Some
times load voices from Heaven , out to
warn him. Sometimes fiends whispered im
pious suggestions in his ear. He saw ision*
of distant mountains tops, on which t l sun
■hone brightly, but from which he was separat
ed by a waste of snow. He felt the devil be
hind him pulling his clothes. He thought that
tire brand of Cain had been set upon him. He
feared that he was about to burst asunder like
Judas. His mental agony disordered his health.
One day he shook like a man in the palsy. On
another day he felt a fire within his breast, h
is difficult to understand how he survived
sufferings so intense and so Jong continued.
At length the clouds broke. From the depth*
of despair, he passed to a state of serene feli
city. An irrisistible impulse now urged him
to impart to others the blessing of which he
washimself possessed. He joined the Baptists,
and became a preacher and writer. His educa
tion had been that of a mechanic. He knew
no language but the English, as it waa spoken
by the common people. He had studied no
model of composition, with the exception, an
•xception important undoubtedly, of our noble
translation of the Bible. His spelling was
bad. He frequently transgressed the rules of •
grammar. Yet the native force of genius, and
his experimental knowledge of all the religious
passions, from despair to ecstacy, amply sup
plied in him the want of learning. His rude
. oratory roused and melted hearers who listen
ed without interest to labored discourses of
great logicians and Hebraists. LJis works were
widely circulated among the humble classes.
One, the Pilgrims’ Progress, was in his own
life time translated into several foreign lan
guages It was however, scarcely known to the
learned and polite, and had been, daring near a
century, the delightof pious cottagers and arti
sansbefore it was publicly commended by any
man ofhigh literary eminence. At length critics
condescended to inquire where the secret of
so wide and so durable a popuiarky lay. They
were compelled to own that the ignorant mul
titude had judged more correctly than the
learned, and that the despised little book was
u'll oVSualcspeare the first of
dramatists. Otherallegorists have shown equal
ingenuity but no other allegorist has ever been
able to touch the heart and to make abstrac
tions objects of terror, of pity, and of love.
It may be doubted whether any English Dis
senter had suffered more severly under the
penal laws than John Bunyan. Os the twenty
seven years which had elapsed since the Res
toration, he had pased twelve in confinement.
He still persisted in preaching; but that he
might preach, he was under the necessity of
disguising himself like a carter. He was often
introduced into the meetings through back
doors, with a smock frock on his back and a
whip in his hand. If he had thought only of
his own eaeerand safety, he would have hailed
the indulgence with delight. He was now, at
length, free to pray and exhort in open day.
His congregation rapidly increased; thousands
hung upon his words; and at Bedford where
he originally resided, money was plentifully
contributed to build a meeting house for
him. Hi* influence among the common peo
ple was such that the government would wil
liygly have bestowed on him some municipal
office ; but his vigorous understanding and his
■tout English heart were proof against all delu
sion and all temptation. He felt assured that
theprofferred toleration was merely a bait in
tended to lure the puritan party to destruction
nor would he b/accepting a placefor which be
was not legally qualified, recognize the validity
of the dispensing power. Oneofthe last act*
of his virtuous life was to decline an interview
to which he was invited by an agent of the gov
ernment.
The Lead Cellar below the Dome at Bremen. —
This cellar has the power to prevent all the
corpses, placed into it, from corruption, and
to render them dry like leather. The name
lead cellar, is derived from the word u Zlni,”
(lead) that was formerly prepared here when
the Dome w r as tiled with lead. Fowl that is
brought here, is drift! up in a sen’night, and
becomes like leather.
1. In the first coffin here, is an old English
Major, has been here 110 years.
2 A student who fell in a duel 170 years.
3- An old Swedish countess, 140 years.
4. A Swedish General, with his aid-de-camp,
who perished in the thirty years’ war. He
was wounded in his throat. His aid-de-camp
got a ball.
5. A workman, who fell down from the stee
ple, broke hig neck in the fall, has been here
400 years,
C. An English lady, who suffered ofacancer
at her chin, 190 years.
7. This one is the last, a workman, Conrad
Ehlers. He was carried in and placed down
here, in order to try if the cellar had stil! kept
its power ; has been here 50 or 60 year:,.
8. In the great coffin, here, is a Swedish
Chancellor, named Von Epgeibrechtcn. It is
not opened on account of his surviving family.
Literary “ Ground and Lofty Tumbling.’'
criticises Ralph Waldo Emerson’s Lectures in
a style as unique as it is original and funny,
as the following extract will show;
‘ It is quite out of character to say Mr.
Emerson lectures he does no such thing. He
drops nectar—he chips out sparks—he spouts
fire, and, conjuror like, drawns ribbons out of
- mouth. He smokes, he sparkles, he impro
vises, he shouts, he sings, he explodes like a
bundle of crackers,he gees off in fiery eruptions
like a valcano, but he does not lectnie. He
is a vitalized speculation —a talking essence
—a sort of celestial emanation —a bit* of trans- •
parency broken from the spheres—a spiritual
prism through which we see all beautiful rays
of immaterial existences. His leaping fancy
mounts upwards like an India rubber ball, and
drifts and falls like a snow flake or a feather.
He comes through the air like a cherub with
a golden trumpet in his mouth, out of which
he blows tropes and figures and gossamer
transparencies ofsuggestive fancies. He takes
high flights, and sustains himself without ruffling
a feather. He inverts the rainbow, and uses
it for a awing—now sweeping the earth, and
now slapping his hands among the star*.” .
