$) o c t r fi. Love’s Treason. It was the old knight’* only child Went forth upon the twilight wild : The silent sky was purple gray With one pale light of yellow day, That hung upon the western track, And marked the level distance black. And there they meet; a minstrel lie, The landless soldier’s daughter she. The clouds hung heavy o'er the hill, The broad, bare waste was dark and still, Dut love in either heart was bright, And so they stood beneath the night. And o'er the breezy wild they strayed, And through the woods he led the maid ; And his the mighty gift of song That lent its magic to h s tongue ; And love, and love, was still the theme That lulled their hearts in happy dream. Beyond the margin of the wood, In stately pride a castle stood ; And as they gazed, all lustrous bright, As joy bursts in on sorrow’s night, The gracious moon poured down her sheen, A silver shower o’er the scene. And then he clasped the maiden's hand, And looked upon the spreading land, And said, No minstrel poor was he, But noble earl,of high degree, And hailed her ladie mistress there Os castle proud and forest fair. But with a wonder strange she heard, In breathless hush, her lover’s word, And in her face a wild dismay ; And then she drew her hand away, And calmer grew her brow and eye, That told a settled purpose high. She said ; “ Love is a thing of light, Nor brooks the shade of falsehood's night; And love must shrink, and fade, and faint, Within the circle of its taint; Forever and forever die, Whose life is nourished by a lie !” And then she drew her mantle round, And turned her to the forest hound ; Transfixed all in stark despair, He stood and gazed upon her there, Until beneath the wings of night She passed forever front his sight. Agricultural. John Michel, Esq. and the CoknCcl tu he. — Our enterprising follow-townsman, John Mitchel, Esq., has succeeded, at his farm, on Charleston Neck, in carrying the culture of Indian Corn to very great pro ductiveness, of which that valuable grain is capable. The following are the tesults of his system of culture:—ln 1847, 105 bushels, and, in 1848, 102 bushels, to the acre—in 1849, SO bushels on one acre, 90 bushels on another, and 23 bushels on a quarter of an acre, equal to 92 bushels to the acre. The diminished production of the last year was caused by the snow and severe frost, in the middle of April las!, followed by a protracted drought. The first planting was almost entirely destroy ed, and Mr. M. had to replant twice. The following is a synopsis of Mr. M.’s | system of culture : The rows are placed 5 feet apart; a deep furrow is ploughed and the seed deposited on the hard ground —the seeds about 6 inches apart and cov ered with rich rotted manure, to a level with the surface of the ground, overlaid with a small quantity of earth. When the plants are about 18 inches high, they are thined by removing all the inferior stalks, leaving all the healthy ones, no matter how close to each other. When the corn is about 3 feet high, it receives a good ploughing, the earth being thrown on each side of the plants by the plough, and the hoe being used to complete the hilling, which must not be too high—and this is all the hilling bestowed. The centres of tho rows should not be ploughed, lest there should be a cutting of the lateral roots, which should be allowed to run across the 5 feet rows. When the corn is about tasselling, the flat plough (that in vented by Mr. Taos. Dail, No. 1 Qneen etreet,) is used to cut the grass, a little be low the surface of the ground—this plough working like a charm and that being all the secret. The manure, used by Mr. M., is well rotted, and consists of Horse, Cow, Hog, Privy and Vegetable Manure—the great est quantity of which may be applied, without the least danger of firing the corn, Mr. M., puts as many as 70 to SO cart loads to an acre.— Charleston Courier. Winter Ploughing.— As there are many times during winter, when the ground may be ploughed without i.ijury, therefore, if you have any stiff clayey fields that you intend for spring crops, you should seize every opportunity through the win ter, when the ground is not urt, to have such fields well ploughed, taking care to lap the furrows, so as to ensure the water which may fall, to find drains beneath them to carry it off. By attention to this recom mendation, you will, through the action of the frost, have the tenacity of such clay soils broken down, and its texture greatly improved, as there is nothing, except the application of large quantities of coarse manure, marlor lime, better calculated than exposure to winter freezings and thawings, when effectively done, at a time when the land is not saturated with water. If plough ed when wet, your object will not only be defeated, but the soil will remain in bad condition throughout the season. Dental Card for 1850. PUTNAM A DOIUOX, OFFICE SEAR C. A.

Old Dr. Townsend i» now about 70 years of Hire, and hat lon# lice n known a* the AUTHOR <’tnd DISCOVERER of toe GENUINE ORIGINAL “ TO HNS END SAR SAPARILLA.'* Heine poor, he was compelled to limit its manufuel*re, by which means it has been kept out of mar ket, and the sales circumscribed to those only who had proved its worth, and known its value. It had reached the u.irs of many, nevertheless, as those persons who had been healed of sore diseases, and saved from death, pro claimed its excellence and wonderful HEALING POWER. Knowing, many years ago. that he had, by* his skill, •clence and experience, devised an article which would he of incalculable advantage to mankind when the means would be furnished to bring it into universal notice, when its inestimable virtues would be known and appreciated. This time has come, the means are supplied ; this GRAND AND UNE QUAL LE D PREPARATION is manufactured on the largest scale, and is called for throughout the length and breadth of the land. especially as it is found incapable of degeneration or deterioration. Unlike young s?. I* Townsend’s, it improves with age. and never changes, hut for the letter: because it is prepared on scientific principles by a scientific man. The highest know 1- edge of Chemistry, and the latest discoveries of the art, have all been brought into requisition in the manufacture of the Old Dr’s Sarsaparilla. The Sarsaparilla root, it is well know n to medical men, contains many medicinal pro parties, and some projierties which are inert or useless, and others, which if retained in preparing it for Use, produce fermentation and acid , which is injurious to the system. Some of the pro|ierties of Sarsaparilla are so volatile, that they entirely evaporate and are lost in .he preparation, if they are not preserved by a scientific process, known only to those experienced in its manufacture. Moreover, these oolatue principles, which fly off in vapor, or as an exhala tion. under heat, are the very essential medical properties i»f the root, which give to it all its value. Any person can boil or stew- the root till they get a dark colored liquid, which is more from the coloring matter In the root than from any thing else; they can then strain this Insipid or vapid liquid, sweeten w ith sour molasses, md then call it •• SARSAPARILLA EXTRACT or SY RUP.” But such is not the article known as the GENUINE OLD DR. JACOB TOWNSEND’S SARSAPARILLA. This is so prepared, that all the inert properties of the Sarsaparilla root are first removed, every thing capable of becoming acid or of fermentation, is extracted and rejected; then every particle of medical virtue is secured in a pure and concentrated form ; and thus it is rendered incapable of losing any of its valuable and healing properties. Prepared in tins way, it is made the most powerful agent in the Cure of innumerable diseases. lienee the reason why w’e hear commendations on every side in its favor by men, women, and children. We find it doing wonders in the cure of CONSUMPTION, DYSPEPSIA, and LIVER COM PLAINT, ami in RHEUMATISM, SCROFULA. PILES, ( OS'J'JVEMESS, all CUTANEOUS Eli UP 'Tit NS, PIMPLES , HLOC I'HES, and all utleclious arising from IMPURITY OF THE BLOOD. It possesses a marvellous efficacy in ail complaints arising from Indigestion, from Acidity of the Stomach, from unequal circulation, determination of blood to the head, pal pita tion of the heart, cold feet and hands, cold chills and hot dashes over the body. It has not its equal in Colds and Coughs ; and promotes easy expectoration and gentle perspiration, relaxing stricture of the lungs, throat, and every other part. But in nothing is its excellence more manifestly seen and acknowledged than in all kinds and stages of FEMALE COMPLAINTS. It works wonders in cases of Fuor Albus or IVhites. Fill ing of the IVomb, Obstructed, Suppress* and, or Painful Menses, irregularity of the menstrual periods, and the likl ; and is as effectual in curing all tbe forms of Kidney Disease s. By removing obstructions, ami regulating the general system, it gives tone and strength to the whole body, and thus cures all forms of Nervous diseases and debility, and thus prevents or relieves a great variety of other mala dies, as Spinal irritation. Neuralgia, St. Vitus' Dance Swooning, Epileptic Fits, Convulsions, &.C. It cleanses the blood, excites the liver to healthy action, tones the stomach, and gives good digestion, relieves the bowels of torpor and constipation, allays inflammation, purifies the skin, equalises the circulation of the blood, producing gentle warmth equally all over the body and the insensible perspiration ; relaxes all strictures and tight ness, removes all obstructions, and invigorates the entire nervous system. Is not this then The medicine you pre-eminently need J But can any of these tilings be said of S. P. Tow nsend’s infer,or article? This xoung man’s liquid is not to be COMPARED WITH THE OLD DR’S, because of one GRAND FACT, that the one is INCAPA BEE of DETERIORATION, and NEVER SPOILS, while the other DOES ; souring, fermenting, and blowing the bottles containing it into fragments ; the sour, acid liquid exploding, and damaging other goods : Must not this horri ble compound be poisonous to the system ? What! put r.cid into a system already diseased with arid ! What causes Dyspepsia bnt acid ? Do we not all know that when food sours in our stomachs, what mischiefs it produces 7 flatu lence, heartburn, palpitation of the heart, liver complaint, diarrhiea, dysentery, colic, and corruption of the blood! What is Scrofula hut an acid humor in the body? What produces all the humors which bring on Eruptions of the Skin. Scald Head, Salt Rheum, Erysipelas, White Swell lags. Fever Sores, and all ulcerations internal and external? It is nothing under heaven, hut an acid substance, which sours, and thus spoils all the fluids of the body, more or .ess. What causes Rheumatism but a sour or acid fluid which insinuates itself between the joints and elsew here, irriuiting and inflaming the delicate tissues upon which it acts ? So of nervous diseases, of impurity of the blood, oi deranged circulations, and nearly all the ailments which afflict human nature.

But what else should l»e expected from one who known nothing comparatively of medicine or disease ! It requires a |ierson of some ex;»erience to cook and serve up even a common decent meal. How much more important is it that the [lersons w ho manufacture medicine, designed for WEAK STOMACHS AND ENFEEBLED SYSTEMS, should know well the medical properties of plants, the best manner of securing and concentrating their healing virtues, also an extensive know ledge of the various diseases w hich affect the human system, and how to adapt remedies these diseases! it is to arrest frauds upon the unfortunate, to pour halm into w onnded humanity, to kindle hope in the despairing bosom, to restore health and bloom, and vigor into the crushed and broken, and to banish Infirmity that OLD DK J \< op TOWNSEND has SOUGHT and FOUND the op* port unity and means to bring his Grant!

J HILE so much is being said and done by X V Gentlemen of a different persuasion, for the purpose of elevating their profession in the public estimation ; while societies are being formed all over the country, and resolutions pass ed declaratory of the superiority of their system, and denunciatory of all and every other; w hile the prejudices of the past are being aroused, and the fears of the future are being appealed to; while legislative aid is being invoked, and ad verse interference denounced ; While the freedom of speech and of opinion in professional men, especially of those of the “sacred profession,” are endevoured to be curtailed, and their con duct in givingcontenance to other systems de nounced as '•'■painful and mortifying while, in fine, they are placing their dependence for ele vating their profession, on societies, resolutions, denunciations, prejudices, fears, legislation, &c. &<■.; be it the pride, the happiness, and the glory of the undersigned, to put his trust in that which is far more substantial—“ the results of his practice. ’ These are his dependence, and to them he looks for that “professional” elevation to which he aspires; and judging of the future by the past, he has every reason to believe that he will not he disappointed. Influential bodies may rail, ridicule, and donounce; legislation may place its ban and promulgate its anathe mas ; individuals may scandalize, backbite, and traduce, hut“rACTS are stubborn things “Are cheils that, w inna ding, And dar na be disputit”— One of which at any time, is worth a thousand arguments. On them he has laid the base, and on them ho expects to raise the superstructure ; and in accordance with usage, will still append more to the list, already before the public. The following letter is from the Rev. John W. Mil. sos the Florida Conference, of the M K. Church South ; who without the fear of the Faculty before his eyes, dares their rebuke and accusation of guilt of “painful and mortifying” conduct,and boldly gives his experience to the world. It is too late in the day for men toschool themselves into the repression of their convic t ions. Quincy, Fla, April lOth, 1849. Ur. M. S. Thomson — Dear Sir With inex pressible gratitude, 1 drop you these lines. Since 1 received your Medicines, and commenced fol lowing your prescription, my health is so im proved that I do not now feel the least symptoms of disease, my morbid appetite left ine on the commencement of taking your medicines: every thing I eat now agrees with me, and I am satis fied with a common meal. My Spleen was very much enlarged, and niy kidneys failed to do their office when I last wrote you, but these are now corrected The miserable restlessness that was my lot of nights, has left me, and I now sleep sweetly ; indeed my whole system is regular and easy’. So sudden was the ehange,that my friends, (those of them who did not know that I was taking your medicine,) were astonished on meeting with meat the improvement in my health. When I compare toy present condition with my miserable condition a few months ago, I can not express the gratitude I feel toward you. I now enter into conversation with life, as I once did, and the same zeal that once burned in my heart for the Church has been kindled afresh, with my tnind freed from that gloom, inactivity and forgelfuln ess,\v hich disease had engendered, and I yet hope to live long to preach the un| searchable riches of Christ. I have yet some medicines left, &c. I am, dear sir, yours grate fully, JOHN W. MILLS.

CtOMMENT IS UNNECESSARY— Another ) EXTRAORDINARY CASE OK ASTHMA. Blopntsvili.e, Jones County, Ga., ) August 7th, 1849. 5 Dr. M. S. Thomson —Dear Sir —Being under the impression that a short statement relative to my case might he productive of good to many that are now afflicted as I have been, and being desirous of adding my testimony in favor of your system of practice and skill in curing disease, 1 have concluded to give it, desiring, if you think proper, to have it published to the world. STATEMENT: In September, 1845, I was attacked with Asth ma, which continued to return at intervals, more or less frequent, for two years. I applied to some of the most eminent mineral physicians iu the State of Mississippi, where I resided, but without benefit—for I continued to get worse— so much so, that from Ist September, 1847, 1 had an attack every night, with only five excep tions, till February, 1849. During this long pe riod of nearly eighteen months, my condition was one of terrible suffering, compelled as I was, to sit up almost all the time trying to catch my breath, which every minute seemed as if it were to be the last ; indeed, I have been for ten days at a time that I dared not place my head upon a pillow, wheezing and breathing in a manner to have been heard over a hundred yards. Having exhausted the skill and means of the Allopathic practitioners, like a drowning man catching at straws,! resolved to employ a Homoe opathic Doctor, who for a time, treated my case; but alas ! he also failed and left me in the very depths of despair. In this condition Ileft Mississsppi and came to Georgia, and in January of this year, as a forlorn hope, placed myself under your care in Macon. You there saw, with many others, my condition, which for a while,was just as described. I was reduced to nearly skin and bone, weighing only 110 lbs., my general health having suffered se verely from the repeated attacks of my fell tor mentor ; but it was not long before 1 commen ced improving. At first, I would miss one night, then two, then more ; my general health also improved, until now, lam proud to say, that through your instrumennality, I enjoy excellent health— have had no attack of Asthma since the firstweekin Alarch, and now weigh 145 lbs., my usual standard of weight in health. Since then, I have exposed myself during all this rainy season to all weathers, without being attacked, which fuily justifies and warrants me in making tnis statement, requesting its publica tion, trusting that others similarly situated, may be admonished to cease looking for a cure where it cannot be found, but resort at once to the means that have so happily, and in such a limited peri od restored me to health. With abounding feelings of gratitude, respect and esteem, I remain yours sincerely, CYRUS L. HOLMES. O Tor Terms, &e., see advertisement above. IT.

SINCE the death of the projector of this popu lar M agazinc, the property has passed into the hands of the subscriber, vvlio will continue to publish it at the publication office, No. 109 Nassau street, New York. The New Volume, to he commenced on the first of January, 1850, will comprise many im portant improvements, which, it is helievtd, will render the Magazine one of the best Period icals published in the country, as it certainly is the cheapest. Among these improvements will he new and beautiful type, fine calendered pa per, a higher order of illustrations than those heretofore given, and contributions from some of the ablest writers in America. It is the aim of the Proprietor to publish a popular Magazine, adapted to the wants of all classes of reading peoplein the Republic, which shall he both in structive and amusing ; and tree alike from the grossness which characterizes much of the cheap literature of the day, and from the vapidity of the so called “Ladies Magazines.” The illus trations will consist ofOriginai Drawings engrav ed on wood by the best Artists ; Portraits of re markable Persons, and Views of remarkable Places, illustrated by pen and pencil. A strict revision will he exercised that no improper arti cle, or word, shall ever he admitted, so that it may be safely taken by persons oftlie utmost re finement, and read at the fire-side for the amuse ment or instruction of the family circle. The Review department oftlie Magazine will contain brief critical notices of all the new pub lications of the day, and will form a complete chronicle of current literature. Front the business and literary connexions al ready establishad, the best assistance that the country can afford will be secured for completing the plans ofthe publisher, and nothing will be wanting that ample pecuniary resources and watchful industry can obtain to make the Mag azine the leading Literary Periodical of America. Tite extremely low rate at which it is published precludes the hope of profit, except from a circu lation greater than that which any literary pe riodical has ever yet attained; but, with the new avenues daily opening for the circulation of works of merit; the constantly increasing popu lation ofthe country; the cheapness of the Magazine, and the superiority of its literary and artistic attractions to those of any other work now issued ; the proprietor fearlessly engages in an enterprise which will be sure to benefit the public if it should not enrich himself. The Magazine will be under the Editorial charge and supervision of Charles F. Briggs, who has been connected with it from the begin ning. The “Pulpit Portraits," a series of Bio graphical Sketches,accompanied by well engrav ed Portraits cf eminent Divines of the American Churches, which have formed a conspicuous fea ture of “IIOLDEN,” will be continued in the succeeding Volumes of the Magazine, and will render it of peculiar value to religious people of every denomination. The Fifth Volume will commence on the first of January next, but will be issued on the 15th of December. Each number will consist of G 4 pages, and numerous Engravings. The Terms are One Dollar a Year in advance —the Magazine will be plainly and carefully directed and sent by mail at the risk of the subscriber. As each number will be stereotyped missing or lost num bers can be at any time supplied when ordered, but will be deducted from the time for which payment has been received. Remittances may be sent at the risk ofthe Proprietor, provided a description ofthe bills are taken, and enclosed in the presence of the Postmaster as evidence of the fact. Five copies will be furnished for $4 and 20 copies for sls. Numbers for the year 1848, ex cepting the month of January, will be furnished at 4 cents each, and bound Volumes in cloth gilt edge, from July to December inclusive, at $1 each. Letters must be addressed to “Holden’s Dol lar Magazine, No. 109 Nassau Street, New York, and post-paid in all cases. WM. 11. DIETZ, Proprietor. dec 1 * THE GEO BE, A Congressional, Agricultural and Literary Newspaper. r ('HE approach ofCongress calls out the An 1. nual Prospectus of Globe Establish ment. The time is full of interest. The coming in of anew Administration —the consequent broach ing of anew poiicy touching the internal con cerns oftlie country —the new and most impor tant issues arising front the late vast accession to the public domain, and the great national objects associated with it—the impending difficulty in our relations with France,and the possible com plication of our affairs with the troubles of Eu rope,—conspire to create great expectation as to the proceedings of the next Congress. The ap proaching Session will probably continue till late in the summer of 1850. The debates, from the agitation of so many questions of vital interest to the Republic, will draw forth all the talent of the National Legislature. To bring its delibera tions home to the people, on each succeeding day, while measures are maturing, is, in effect, to bring the whole nation into council. The discussion, spreading front the Capitol to the re motest parts oftlie Union, forms a public opin ion which reacts upon Congress and controls its decisions. To become a useful instrument, however hum ble, to assist the working of the admirable ma chinery of our popular institutions, is the ambi tion of the conductor of the Globe. Extraor dinary preparations have therefore been made to meet the increasing demands of our rapidly im proving and growing country for Congressional intelligence. The Gi.obf. Press has already enlisted the ablest Reporters yet known to Congress; its materials and machinery are of the best sort ; and the exclusive devotion of the individual who for so many years has made it his study to embo dy and publish the labors of Congress, gives rea son to hope that an advance will ho made in the accomplishment of this undertaking commensu rate with its increased importance. But the ac cumulation of expense consequent on the addi tional number of Reporters required—the extra charges incurred in printing at night the debates oftlie preceding day—the vast addition made to the mass published, by the protracted sessions and the fuller reports given,—will render our enterprise a failure, unless Congress shall so fur patronize it as to become a purchaser of such portion oftlie daily sheets issued,ns shall contri bute to make the reports that fill them. Tho undersigned lias ventured on the preparation he has made fur the next Session, in the expectation that Congress wiil subscribe for as many daily sheets for each Member, at the subscription price as will, in part, defray the expense of reporting, and give them circulation ns Congressional docu ments in their several districts. This will ena ble the Publisher to bear the charge of reporting, and it will give an impulse to the circulation of the Congressional Print, which, although the cheapest in the Union (the expense of prepara tion considered) will yet yield sufficient profit to make the system permanent. John C. Rives having purchased the interest ofF.P. Blair in Jackson Hall—the printing office machinery and material—becomes the sole proprietor thereof, and will give his exclusive attention to the Congressional Department. J. C. Pickett will conduct the Miscellaneous Department of the Newspaper. F. P. Blair * retires from both concerns, w ith prayers for their permanent usefulness and prosperity. The Globe will be published daily duringtlic session of Congress, and Weekly the remainder of the year, and will undergo distribution in the form ofa Weekly Globe, a Congressional Globe and an Appendix. The Weekly Globe will contain Agricultural and miscellaneous articles ; and w ill occasion ally give debates ofsucli importance as command universal interest. The price ofthe Weekly Globe is reduced to One Dollar, with a view to obtain a more gene ral circulation. Subscribers who have hitherto paid $2 per annum, will be charged only $1 af ter the expiration of the first year. The Congressional Globe w ill embody, as it has done for the last sixteen years, Congression al pioecedings and debates exclusively. The Appendix will embrace the revised speeches separately, and the messages of the President ofthe United States, and the reports ofthe Heads ofthe Executive Departments. The Congressional Globe and Appendix will be published as fast as the proceedings of Con gress will make a number Subscribers may ex pect one number of each a week during the first four W’eeks of a session, and tw o or three num bers of each a week afterwards, until the end of the session. Each volume will probably com prise two thousand royal quarto pages, of small type. Complete Indexes to the Congressional Globe and Appendix will be sent to subscribers soon after Congress adjourns. Nothing of a political party aspect will appear in the Globe save that which will be found in the Congressiohal reports. A paper assuming to be an impaitiai vehicle for all sides, cannot maintain its character if the editorial columns reflect a party hue. TERMS: For one copy of the Daily Globe (daily during the session of Congress, and Weekly during the recess,) a year, : : $5 00 For the Daily Globe for less than a year, at the rate of, per month, ; : 80 For one copy ofthe Weekly Globe, one year, 1 00 For one copy ofthe Congressional Globe, during the session, : : : 3 00 For one copy of the Appendix during the session, : t : -3 00 For four copies of either, or part of both, during the session, : : : 10 00 For ten copies of either, or part of both, during the session, : : : 20 00 The prices for these papers are so low, that advance payments are indispensable to carry them on. Postmasters who may obtain subscribers will be allowed twenty per cent, on the subscription prices for single papers, which they may retain when they send on the names of subscribers and the subscription money. The price for the Congressional Globe and Appendix, to Clubs who take -ten copies, is s° low, that no deducrion can be afforded. Subscriptions may be remitted by mail, at our risk, in money at par in the section of the coun try where subscribers reside. JOHN CRIVES. Washington City, October 9, 1849. C'ongrONSi Water.
