Poet xi). 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 !” (Dtb |)otXvUiti. 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. [ Yankee Blade. 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 do-day at 93 in the shade—hope to get a little more strength to-morrow !) 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 the days of thy life.’” “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 warm bath V’ “Till he finds his toe nails floating on the surface of the water.” “Next class in Materia Modica!” IT “Mr. Tompkins, I shall be compelled to raise your rent this week.” “Thank you, sir, 1 am greatly obliged—it’s more than I can do.” (Kr Vlby is a scamp who steals your goods, like an inclined plane ?

When I say— Tumble Tiber mill dam, Come down slam, dat’s poetry ; but when I say— Tumble ober mill dam, Come down kersplash, dat’s plank verse. 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.” (KT An Irish gentleman lately fought a duel with his intimate friend, because lie jo cosely asserted that he was born without a shirt io his back. CO” A precocious cadet at West Point being asked for his opinion of calibre, re plied at once, lie considered it a decided 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.” XV X\\ \% Sk %"V IK % Mil ;iii ’diji ’Mil ‘dll iiii \fil ai ji •dill ‘JildilU ’iid i; dl! *il fillip’ M E C.

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.

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. New Orleans. August 13-ts Georgia and Alabama and MARRIAGE LICENSES, Just printed and for sale at this Office. Baggy for Sale.

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. From til's Slate of Maine.

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. TERMS: The Soil of the South is published monthly, each number containing sixteen large and handsomely printed page?, and is furnished to subscribers promptly and regu larly at the low price of ONE DOLLAR PER ANNUM. Five copies will be sent 12 months for $4. The monev must in all cases accompany the names,oi tiie paper wifi not be sent.

LOMAX & CO., January 1, 1852. Publishers. 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.
