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. ' * *%* Remittances and communications should be al ways addressed, post-paid or franked, to the pub lishers.

" ’ fy/ Dev<,ted \o| ■ * *U 1 •• *' - SOUTHERN AGRICULTURE. : EDITED BY DANIEL LEE, M.D. > Illustrated with numerous eleoant and costly Engravings. 1 TERMS.--ONE DOLLAR PER ANNUM, 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 the friends of Agriculture bestir themselves. They will receive the work at the Club price. The premiums to be awarded on the first day of MARCH, 1849.

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*.” .
