LET THE BANNER MEN ADVANCE.
BY R. M. CHARLTON.
Let tlie banner men advance !
Wave its silken folds on high,
Charge, desuite of spear or lance,
And let him that falters, die !
Wheresoe’er the foe is found,
Where his sword like lightnings glance,
Tho’ he scatter death around,
“Let tho banner men advance !”
It was thus, that one of old.
Cheered his soldiers to the strife,
Till beneath that silken fold,
Jle surrendered up his life 1
Eut when death had glazed his eye,
And his senses felt its trance,
Still he raised his battle cry.
“Let the banner men advance !”
Warrior of God's own word,
Let that war-cry be thine own ;
Gird thee with the gospel sword,
Bo its shield before thee thrown !
Haste thee to sin’s battle ground,
("God may bless your faith, perchance,)
And wherever vice is found,
“Let the banner men advance 1”
Wo to him who falters now,
When the day is almost won,
Or no crown will deck his brow,
When the strife of life is done !
Onv. ard 1 onward ! Christian knight,
Cast behind no fearful glance,
To the thickest of the fight,
“Let the banner men advance !”
ITie thee to the heathen land,
Where they wrapt in darkness lie,
Onward, with the martyr band,
Lift thy Saviour’s cross on high !
Though they lead thee to the death,
Midst their wild and fiendish dance,
Still proclaim, with latest breath,
“Let the banner men advance !”
Net in vain shall life be shed,
Or. that dark, benighted ground,
Go<l shall call thee from the dead,
W hen the angel’s trump shall sound 1
And, when raised to realms on high,
And its joys thy soul entrance,
Christ shall echo back thy cry,
“Let tho banner men advance !”

RAYS FROM THE LANTERN.
ICT Pray, Don’t Cut Dim Down.—The
Evening Post says that Richelieu Robinson
is “hanging about the Tribune office.”
03° Tremendous.—The Evening Post
says that Scott is called Old Chippewa, be
cause he has whittled the Whig party away.
I,* Bout et i>k Trott.—Harper’s Maga
zine may be said to be the Essence ol‘ Lit
erature, because it is ail Extract.
03™ Quite Irresistible.—As an induce
ment to tiieir clients, the Cireleville Journal
says, that all subscribers paying in advance,
will be entitled to a first rale obituary notice
in case of death.
O’ Very Significant.—A correspondent
says that the Diplomas recently bestowed up
on the Ladies at the Worcester Medical Insti
tute, of M. D., are very appropriate initials—
s4ill Women being Most Dangerous, whether
in Love. Law or Physic.
03° Speaking Truth for Once.—Gree
ley said, at the Niagara lizzie, “that the
Whig illustrated life of Gen. Scott, (copies
of which we had for sale “in the rear of the
stand,”) was more brilliant than romance , and
more interesting than any novel ever written.”
VV'e quite agree with the Porkeater that it
is a great work of fiction.

03“ Why is an editor who has sprained
a certain part of his arm so as to prevent him
from writing, like one who is imposed upon
by a thieving correspondent? Because he
is troubled by a plaguy urist. (Thermometer

PT The Georgia Home Gazelle is the title
of a handsome paper published in Augusta,
and edited by James M. Srnvthe and Robert
A. Whyte—several numbers of which we
have received. From the way the editors
spell their names we infer that they are deci
dedly ys men.
O’ Rather Good.—[Scene—Connecticut
River Railroad cars crowded to utmost ca
pacity. Tall Yankee boy, with a bundle on
his arm, standing in a corner unable to obtain
a seat. Arriving at the depot, the conductor,
as usual, makes the fact known and sings
out:]
“Will-a-man-sit,” [Willimansett.]
Tall Yankee, amidst roars of laughter
from passengers :
“Es course a man will sit; jist show me a
seat, and darn my dag’ertype es 1 don’t stick
tow it till I hatch.”
ID” A cab-driver, in his list of journey ex
penses, entered in the item of “refreshments
for horses,” three pence worth of whip cord.
Ip” “I wonder what makes my eves so
weak ?” said one loafer to another. “Whv,
f they are in a weak place,” replied the latter.
IP” In the battle of the Resaca de la Pal
ma, in a hand-to-hand skirmish, a soldier in
our army, a quaint Irishman, pierced a Mexi
can with his bayonet, and immediately after
fired the contents of his musket.
“What was that for ?” said the officer in
command of the squad, in a tone signifying
his disapproval of the act.
“Oh 1” said the soldier, much puzzled for
an answer, “what was it for t —why, to make
a hole to get my bayonet out of, to be sure.”
03° “Miss Brown, I have been to learn
how to tell fortunes,” said a young fellow to
a brisk brunette. “Just let me have your
hand, if you please.”
“La! Mr. White, how sudden yew are!
Well, go and ask my father.”
| 03° An Irishman hearing that Mexico was
about treating, exclaimed, “Mexico is going
to trate! be Jabers! I’m glad of it! I’ve been
wantin’ a dhrop this many a day.”
03“ A few weeks since a paragraph was
going the rounds, enquiring when the present
United States flag was adopted. The Cin
cinnati Gazette replied thus :
The following is the original resolution
adopting the Stars and Stripes :
In Congress, June 26,1777
“Resolved, That the flaw of the thirteen United
States bo thirteen stripes, alternately red and white;
that the Union be thirteen stars, white in a biue tield,
representing anew constellation.”
As new States were added to the Union,
from time to time, new stripes were added
to the flag, till the number increased to fif
teen or twenty. At length, about thirty years
ago, the stripes were reduced by act of Con
gress to the original number of thirteen.
CO” Some years ago, an Italian singer, of
a very gentlemanly and amiable character,
named C , went over to England, to sing
at the Opera. He never loved the stage, and
finding an opportunity of entering into some
mercantile speculation, he quitted his original
profession, dropped the Italian termination
of his name, and became highly successful in
his new pursuit. His distinguished manners,
and the respectability of his character, ob
tained for him admission into the first circles
of London; and the Duke and Duchess of
R looked upon him with a particular re
gard and esteem, admitting him on familiar
terms to their domestic circle, as well as to
their more public parties, lie never could
wholly master the English language, howev
er. One day, dining alone with the Duke
and Duchess, the Duke sent him some wood
cock, but omitted to send him any of the trail.
“I will beg your Grace for some of de
bowels,” said Signor C .
“Oli, fie! .Mr. C ,” said the Duchess.
“I ask your pardon for correcting you; but
we call that in England the trail.”
“1 thank your Grace a thousand times,” was
the reply. “I will not forget—de trail—l
shall remember de trail. How do vou spell
it?”
The spelling was explained to him, and the
matter passed over. About a month after, a
large dinner party was given by the Duke of
R , and Signor C was invited, but did
not appear at the hour appointed. After
waiting a few moments, the company sat
down to dinner, and tiie soup was hardly
eaten, when one of the servants brought in a
note to the Duke, who, on opening it, appear
ed convulsed with laughter. The Duchess in
sisted that the whole party should share in the
fun, whatever it was, and after some slight
hesitation, his Grace read as follows:
“My Lord Duke—l am profoundly grieved
that l can not have the felicity of attending
upon your Grace this evening, and have wait
ed to the last moment in hopes that I should
be better. 1 find, however, that it would be
vain to attempt it, as 1 am afflicted with ex
cruciating pains iu my trail, and can only
sign myself, with very great respect, vour
Grace’s faithful servant, C .”
(NT* Examination in Anatomy.—“ How
does man differ from the brute creation?”
“He stands upright, but he doesn’t act so.
He walks on two legs, contrary to the Bible,
for it says, ‘Upon thy belly slialt thou go all

“Where is the carotid artery situated ?”
“It commences both sides of the neck, at
ihe shirt-collar, passes up under the hat-brim
to the top of the head, then down the insen
sate canal, and terminates in both boots.”
“How long ought a person to remain in a

“Till he finds his toe nails floating on the

Drawing on the Dictionary.—A
great ‘‘speechifier,” at a recent political meet
ing, wishing to say that those who live in
glass houses should not throw stones, made
use of the following language. He evident
ly supposed it would not do to speak in the
vulgar tongue:
“Pugnacious individuals, who reside in
crystalline domicils, should not perpetrate the
indecorum of administering to the amusement
of themselves and the canaille who appro
pinquate them in moral deformity, by projec
ting fragments of granite towards those who
deambuhite in their vicinage, as such pre
sumptuous viciosity, so far from being para
digtnatized, is apt to influence simultudinary
punition.”

cosely asserted that he was born without a

CO” A precocious cadet at West Point

bore.
0O” One likes al ways to see an impudent
lawyer, whose forte it is to banter and “bally
rag” w itnesses, brought up with a round turn
by some victim of his ill-mannered bearing.
We heard a recent instance of this kind
which is worth relating:
A case was being tried on Long Island
about the soundness of a horse, in which a
clergyman, not very conversant with such
matters, appeared as a witness. He was a
little confused in giving his evidence; and a
blustering fellow of a lawyer, who examined
him, at last exclaimed— *
“Pray, sir, do you know the difference be
tween a horse and a cow’ ?”
“I acknowledge my ignorance,” replied
the clergyman; “l hardly know the difference
between a horse and a cow, or a bully and a
bull —only that a bull, I am told, has horns,
and a bully, (bowing with mock-respect to the
pettifogger,) luckily for me, has none!”
OCt That is a good story told lately in a
Scottish newspaper. A tavern-keeper in the
little tow nos Kelso had recently erected a
shower-bath in one of his rooms, part of
which was fitted up as a sort of bar, or “tap
room,” as they call it on the other side. One
evening an Irishman, who happened to be
drinking along with a few companions in one
of the boxes, rose up for the purpose of ring
ing for more liquor. Looking round the room
for the bell-cord, his eye fell on the rope at
tached to tho shower-bath. “Bo Saint Path
rick !” said he, “I have found the bell-rope at
last;” and seizing it, he gave it “a strong pull,
and a pull altogether.”
In an instant he was drenched to the skin ;
and almost frantic with rage, to the no small
amusement of his companions, he roared out:
“Oh, be the powers!—is that the way ye
play thricks upon travelers ? Be Jabers, if I
had that big baste of a lan’lord foraninst me,
I’d soon tache him better manners!”
IT Why is a clock the most humble thing
in existence ?
Because it always holds its hands before
its face; and however good its w r orks ma}’
be, it is always running itself down.
O’ Mrs. Partington, upon reading that the
Life Guards appeared last evening in “undress
uniform,” said—“ Well, if soldiers will go
naked, I’m glad they don’t traiu in tho day
time, I am.”

LEONARD SCOTT & C'O.,
No. 154 Gold street, Neic York,
CIONTINUE to publish the four leading British
) Quarterly Reviews and Blackwood’s Magazine;
in addition to which they have recently commenced the
publication of a valuable Agricultural work, called the
“FARMER’S GUIDE TO SCIENTIFIC AND
PRACTICAL AGRICULTURE,”
By Henry Stephens, F. R. S., of Edinburgh, author oi
the “Book of the Farm,” &c. &e.assisted by John
P. Norton, M. A., New Haven, Professor of Scientific
Agriculture in Yale College, &e., &e.
This highly valuable work will comprise two large
royal octavo volumes, containing over 1400 pages, with
IS"or 20 splendid steel engravings, and more than 500
engravings oil wood, in the highest style of the art; illus
trating almost every implement of husbandry now in use
by the best farmers, the best methods of plowing, plant
ing, haying, harvesting, & c. &c., the various domestic an
imals in their highest perfection; in short, the pictorial
features of the book is unique, and will render it of in
calculable valuable to the student of agriculture.
The work is being published in Semi-monthly Num
bers, of 64 pages each, exclusive of the Steel engra
vings, and when not taken in connection with the Re
views or Blackwood, is sold at 25 cents each, or S3 for
the entire work in numbers, of which there will be at
least twenty-two.
The British Periodicals Re-published are as follows,
viz:
The London Quarterly Review. (Conservative),
The Edinburgh Review. (Whig),
The North British Review, (Free-Churc
The Westminster Review, (Liberal), and
Blackwood’s Edinburgh Magazine, (Tory).
Although these works are distinguished by the politi
cal shades above indicated,yet but a small portion of their
contents is devoted to political subjects. It is their lite
rary character which gives them their chief value, and in
that they stand confessedly thr above all other journals
of their class. Blackwood,still under the masterly gui
dance of Christopher North, maintains its ancient cele
brity, and is, at this time, unusually attractive, from the
serial works of Bulwer, and other literary notables, writ
ten for that magazine, and first appearing in its columns
both in Great Britain and in the United States. Such
works as “Caxtons” and “My New Novel,” (both by
Bulwer), “My peninsular Medal,” “The Green Hand.”
and other serials, of which numerous rival editions are
issued by the leading publishers in this country, have to
be re-printed by those publishers from the pages of Black
wood, after it has been issued by the Messrs. Scott &
Cos., so that subscribers to the reprint of that Magazine
may always rely on having the earliest reading of these
fascinating tales.

In three I.arge and Closely Printed Volumes,
Small Type, Donlrte Columns ; I land
sort IP Print, Paper and Binding.
DESIROUS of supplying the large and continually
increasing demand for the complete series of tbs Re
view,in 12 volumes, now exhausted, and which it would
require, a very large outlay to reprint, the editor has
been induced to make a selection of all the important
and valuable papers contained in them from the begin
ning. condensing, re-arranging and completing to date,
and throwing the subjects, after the manner of the ency
clopedias, into alphabetical order. In this manner ev
erything of interest and importance, will be preserved
in a convenient form for reference ; and the volumes
will constitute the only repository Ibr the shelves of the
library, of such information, which by means of the
monthly numbers hereafter will always be brought
down to date.
The volumes will embrace the gist of everything that
has appeared in the Review relating to the Southern
and Western States, tan imperfect index of which will
he found at the open ing of the 10th volume.)
To wit : Their History, Population, Geography, Sta
tistics ; Agricultural Products of Cotton, Sugar, To
bacco, Hemp, grains, Naval stores, etc., etc. Manufac
tures, detailed accounts, statistics and history of all
branches. Internal Improvements : complete statistics
of railroads, results, profits, expenses, costs, advantages,
miles in projection,construction, completed, etc. ; plank
roads, caual.snavigation,etc. Statistics of Health and Dis
penses, wealth and progress; relative condition whites and
blacks ; Slave laws andstatistics, management and ame
lioration of slavery—origin, history, ana defences of sla
very and slave institutions ; the valuable treatises of Har
per, Hammond, Drew, on slavery, etc. Commerce of the
South and West in all its minute particulars, etc., to
gether with an historical and statistical sketch of each
of the States and cities—the domestic and foreign trade,
resources, manufactures, etc. of the United States—the
census returns from 1790, with the complete statistics of
the census of 1850.
As not one in twenty of our present subscribers we
believe have taken the work trom the beginning, or
have preserved the numbers regularly, this edition is re
commended to them , and the volumes hereafter will be
bound uniformly with it. And the same care is taken
now to print an edition of the monthly numbers so large
that a reprint or condensation can never be required
again.
An appeal is made to al i the subscribers of the Review
to sustain this truly southern enterprise, and sustain us
in the efforts we have been making for six years, almost
unaided and alone, in this field.
I ~-w The terms will be §lO for 3 volumes, payable
on delivery of the second, with the privilege to any one
who may no? be pleased to return the first on the re
ceipt of it. Where the payment is by order on a mer
chant in a Southern City, and the order below is sent,
it will not be called for until the deli,-cry of three vol
umes to the said merchant. Should, however, any sub
scriber having confidence in tne established character
and reputation of the Review, think lit to enclose the
§lO on receipt of this circular, it will tend to facilitate
us in the large expenditure we are involving. We are
nut asking such prepayments, however, unless volunta
rily made.

For the Removal and permanent Cure of all
diseases arising from an Impure
State of the blood, or habit
of the system.
The value of this Medicine is now widely known,
and every day liv field of its usefulness is extended.—
It is approved, and highly recommended by Physicians,
and admitted to bo the most powerful and searching
preparation from the root, that has ever been employed
in medical practice. Its operation extends to the remo
test parts of the system, and consists in removing dis
eased action in the absorbing and secreting organs. In
man, Nature seldom effects, unassisted, the cure of any
virulent disease, but requires the aid of a stimulant, al
terative, or antiseptic medicine. In diseases of the skin
and flesh, a combination of these three classes of me
dicinal agents is highly desirable. All these properties
are combined in this preparation ; and instead of op
erating successively upon the system, as they must nec
essarily do when taken separately, they operate simulta
neously and in perfect harmony when administered in
this form. Its tonic property strengthens the digestion,
and improves the appetite. Its alterative tendency car
ries off the accumulations of morbid matter, and its an
tiseptic influence neutralizes the virus, by which the dis
ease is fostered. Its uniform success in curing and re
lieving the various diseases for which it is recommen
ded, is established by a multitude of attested facts.
Cure of Bioachitis or Ministers’ Sore
Throat.
Fair Haven, Mass., Aug. 22,1350.
Messrs. Sands.— l regard it but justice to yourselves,
and humanity to all similarly afflicted, to say that your
Sarsaparilla has cured me of the Chronic Laryngitis.
It would be difficult for me to describe the alarming
condition of my throat and vocal organs previous to
the use of your invaluable remedy. During nearly
three years I was forced to desist from the public duties
of my profession ; and having made use of a great va
riety of professed specifics, besides submitting to more
than thirty extremely painful caustic applications, I had
abandoned all hope of’ relief, when, as a dernier resort,
I was led to the trial of your Sarsaparilla.
My disease was ot so long standing, and had so obsti
nately resisted the best medical skill, that 1 am conscious
it cannot truly he said, my “faith hath saved me,” for I
had none ; but I trust f feel in some appropriate degree
grateful for the favorable, result above named. I have
now been able to attend to the duties of tho pastorate
for more than a year, and having proved from actual
experiment the thoroughness of the cure, I could not
feel justified in longer withholding this statement.
1 am accustomed to keep afbottle of your Sarsaparilla
at hand, and whenever exposed to colds or extra labor,
still use it as a prerentire. Very gratefully yours,
S. c> BROWN, Pastor of Centre st.
jYI. E. Church.

certificate of a remarkable cure effected by using only

afflicted with any disease of SciWda I would most
sincerely recommend and advie tnem to make use of
Sands’Sarsaparilla. If any persoii wishes further in
formation about my case, by cal lug upon me, I can
convince them of the healing poorer of this medicine.

THE SOIL OF THE SOUTH.
IN May. 1850, a number of Planters living in Georgia
and Alabama,met in Columbus, Ga., and formed them
selves into an Agricultural Society. The advantages of
such an association were at once apparent, and with the
view to contribute as much as possible to agricultural
improvement,it was determined, at a meeting of the So
ciety in January, 1851, to establish an Agricultural Jour
nal. As the result of that action,
‘‘THE SOIL OF THE SOUTH,”
made its appearance in the month of March last. It
was hailed with universal approbation, and from that
day to this, it has steadily ana rapidly increased in eircu
lation and public favor. At the recent great Fair in Ma
con, Ga.,itwas liv a unanimous vote of the members
recommended to the patronage of Southern Agricultu
rists, and elected to be the
ORGAN OF THE SOUTHERN CENTRAL
AGRICULTURAL ASSOCIATION.
it will hereafter be published under the auspices of
that association,and will be the medium of communica
ting officially, all intelligence pertaining to its interests
and objects. By a resolution of the Executive Commit
tee, the publisher is authorized to send a copy of the paper
gratuitously to all Agricultural Societies in the South
that will send their address to the office of publication.
The columns of The Soil of the South wil!,ashere
tofoie, be devoted to the discussion of all subjects per
taining to tiie interests of Agriculture and Horticulture,
Domestic and Rural Economy. It is intended to make
the paper essentially practical, and at the same time
eminently progressive, in its character, embodying as tar
as possible, all that is valuable, as well in tiie practice
as the science of Agriculture. In its instructions, it
will be the constant aitn of who write for its col
umns, to adapt themselves to the peculiar climate,soils
and crops of the South. In short, no effort and no
reasonable expense will be spared, to make The Soil
of the South a worthy and instructive Journal of South
ern Agriculture.

number containing sixteen large and handsomely printed
page?, and is furnished to subscribers promptly and regu
larly at the low price of

TO THE LABORING CLASSES!
PROPOSALS
FOR PUBLISHING TIIE
AMERICAN FARMER ANI) MECHANIC,
A Weekly Paper, to be Devoted to the
Industrial Interests of the South.
HOW are the great industrial interests of the South
to he promoted ? What more feasible plan than
the establishment of a Journal, devoted to their general
development and support ? For the accomplishment ot
thfo object—the development and promotion of these
ends—the subscriber proposes publishing in the city of
this State furnishing the largest subscription, a paper de
voted to the interests of the Laboring Class, in every
sense of that term.
In keeping with the object as intimated above, its aim
will be to elevate the true artisan to that dignity of sta
tion so justly due those who, to so large an extent, give
character to a nation ; and who, bv their numerical force,
if in no other way, govern the affairs of every enlight
ened people.
And in attempting this, it shall be done with a free
dom Horn that prejudice existing to such an extent
amongst those to whose affairs we thus intend devoting
our time and energies We wish it done by a home ed
ucation—a general enlightenment, that banishes blind
prejudice, and makes room for that enlarged charity
which forbids envy, and delights in protecting each his
neighbor in the enjoyment of all lawful rights of prop
el ty or station. An education that teaches indepen
dence of thought and action— that enables one to feel
and act the freeman. We wish, in a word, to bring into
existence a paper which shall only prove a benefit to the
laborer, whether the scene of his operations isin the field
or the work-shop, and shall injure no one.
We ate aware of the tact that the American Me
chanic, published for mechanics, proved a failure. This
resulted from more than one cause. Firstly and main- !
ly, because of a want of effort amongst those for whom \
it labored! Secondly, because in its general tone.it
exhibited too little sympathy for the interest- of the
slaveholder. This, however, was more the spirit oi’ its
correspondents than its editor, though he, unfortunately,
solely, had to shoulder the failure, its cause, its loss. —
Lastly, the paper, though larger than its patronage
would warrant, was too small; ari objection arising
from the fact, that one containing four times the matter
could be had at the same price. We mention, though
we shall not now discuss, these matters.
Though many do so, we cannot conclude, because of
one failure, there must be another; no, we cannot be
lieve the people, in their knowledge of the necessity, will
not welcome, t.HEER the stranger, by a general invi
tation to their fire-sides. Indeed, will not every one who
respects honest latter, become, at once, a Sub
scriber and an Agent !
We present this one plea as a necessity for the 1-ar
mer and Mechanic, ana leave it with those most inter
ested, to show by their acts, whether they shall nave a
paper to advocate their cause when necessary, a tnena
to cheer them in their honorable position, . e J
their interests shall still suffer, as heretofore. Ia P •
is this: What would be the condition of Christianity, had j
it not its various publications ? VV her would ne me j
Political Parties without theirs? Indeed, how much
would any and every interest suffer didl we not continu
ally hear their good parts recited by that voice which
spoke into existence and still upholds our freedom-that
has to be stilled while empires totter and tremble to their
foundation ! And what mighty voice is mis ? Its the j
voice of the Press ! Engage it m your lavor, laboring ,
ones, and you have a lever strong enough to bear you
far above the scoffs of pride, or evils of poverty.
