tran-mission of Goods from New York to Augusta,
in sto 7 days. Bills of Lading should accompany
goods by Steamships.
Particular attention should be observed in direct
ing Bills of Lading; many now direct “Steamboat
Agent,” “ Steamboat Company,” &c., and as there
are several Companies, this creates detention , and
much confusion ; shippers by this Company should

The Largest Grape Vine in the United l
j States.—Under this heading the Natchez, ®
i Miss., Free Trader of a recent da’e, has the I
following paragraph :
“ Mr. William Casey, corner of Union and
State streets, in the city of Natchez, can boast
ol a grape vine which is, undoubtedly, the
monarch vine of the United Slates, it rises
from the ground in a single trunk of some I
three inches in diameter, nearly straigh and J
well proportioned, to the height of about nine I
feet, when it spreads into branches, and covers ||
I and embowers the trelliswork of quite a large 1
garden, besides climbing a tall tree. The
i weight of the immense clusters of grapes
hanging upon it, now about half grown, is
estimated at a ton. To stretch out any of the
branches in a direct line, they would measure
from three to four hundred feet. The descnp
tion of the grape is not natural to the country,
but was brought to Natchez in the old Spanish
times. It is called the ‘Jack Grape/' from
‘Spanish Jack,’ the nickname of the Spaniard
who planted it. Some years ago. Madame
Bingaman, now dead, offered Mr. Casey five
hundred dollars if he would remove the vine
safely to her garden, in the environs of the
city ; but no sum of money whatever would
induce the owner to part with it. It produces
a wine which has the taste of Hock.”
The Paris correspondent of the National In
telligencer mentions the following:—
Balloon ascensions are still the favorite a*
musement here. Hardly a day passes but we
have an entertaiument of the sort. Lieuten
ant Gale, of the English Navy, is in Paris with
a remarkably fine balloon. He has made
many ascensions of extraordinary daring.
Having made known his willingness to accept
companions in his aerial voyages at the rate of
SGO per seat, one hundred and fifty applica
tions were made to him in the course of four g
days. Among them are noticed the names of I
many distinguished political characters, litera
ry men, artists, and savans of the capital.
Upon the body of Mr. Rogers Nor they, who
lived in the poor house at Ba s h, Me., on Tues
day, were found $3,000 in gold, with which
he had recently returned from California. He
was 74 years old. and his death was caused in
part by serving a writ upon him to recover a
forfeit surety bond which he had given before
he went to the gold region. The writ was
served on the Saturday evening before his
death, and threw him into convulsions.

MONTHLY JOURNAL, V '
I! Devoted

j/zlj &o tlje Interests of
SOUTHERN AG-RICULTURB
EDITED BY DANIEL LEE. M.D.
Illustrated with numerous elegant and costl
Engravings.
TERMS:—ONE DOLLAR PER ANNUM
» IN ADVANCE.
On the first of January, 1850, the first number of
the Eighth Volume of the SOUTHERN CULTI
VATOR will be issued. In sending forth another
Prospectus, it is deemed unnecessary to make any
new promises. If seven years of continued, unflag
ging, earnest effort to improve and advance the Agri
culture of the South have not sufficiently established
the character of the work, nothing that can be said on
this occasion will contribute to such a result. The
Publisher desires that his future eff-'-ts in that great
and noble cause shall be judged by uis past. It is
his purpose to make the Cultivator equal, in every
respect, to what it is now ; what the planters of the
South want —a medium for the communication of the
thoughts and opinions of practical men, that they may
successfully teach each other whatever is important to
their interests and theirpr ofession.
Planters of the South I —the future destiny of the
Southern Cultivator is committed t oyour keeping
nd care. You, and you alone, can sustain it, and
as it is exclusively devoted to your interests, your aid
is confidently invoked. If you deem it worthy a
generous and liberal support, let it not suffer for the
want of that support. If it is of value, it should be
in the hands of every man who boasts the proud vo
cation of tilling the soil; and the Publisher looks to
his friends and the friends of the work to aid him iu
extending its circulation.
It will be published monthly, as heretofore, on fine
paper, in quarto form, each number containing SIX
TEEN PAGES of closely printed matter, 9 by 12
inches square, forming a volume in the course of the
year of 192 pages —with a complete Index.
