EDITED BY DANTED LEE, M.D. TERMS.—ONE DOLLAR PER ANNUM, IN ADVANCB. Illustrated with numerous blboant and costly Engravings. 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 tific 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 tue Planters of the South will “ put their shoulders to the wheel” 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. The first number of the Seventh Volume was issued on the FIRST OP JANUARY, 1849. It will be published monthly, on fine paper, in quarto lorm, each number containing SIXTEEN PAGES ofclose ly printed matter, 9 by 12 inches square, forming a volume in the course of the year, of 192 pages.

THIS CELEBRATED watering place, will be open the ensuing season, on the 15th of May, under the immediate management of MATTHEW DUPPEE, who pledges himself to nse all means in his power to please all who may pay him a visit ; and his long experience in keeping the Washington Hall at Tuscaloosa, gives him a decided advantage over those inexperienced in that line of business. He will be prepared to receive a great number of guests, as he is now taking an early start to put things right. It is hardly worth while to inform the public of the great virtue of these Springs, as they are so well known to the public already. There are at least nine kinds of water, all in less than half an aero of ground. There will be a good band of music during , the season at the Springs, If the weather should be wet or cold, guests shall be supplied with plenty of thick covering, and good fires. During the season there will be a direct line of stages from Tuscaloosa to the Springs—say to com mence the Ist of June. There is also a post-office at the springs. Persons arriving from Mobile and New Orleans can get to Selma at all seasons insleain boats, and there take the stage for Tuscaloosa, say 87 miles, and by stage from Tuscaloosa to the springs 90 miles.
