It is spring .; yet with all the sort sweetness it

Ooe kiss of my love were worth twenty such

Take tiic wine, take the flowers, now their

For what is the bower where the bulbul is not ?
The cypress invites me with long floating hair,

How delightful to gaze on her ravishing lip,
Yet ivlia' were the pain if forbidden to sip !
For the flame of her dark eye would scorch up
the heart,
If not soothed by the balm which her kisses im

To say for her sake he could welcome even

Sinco for one happy glance of her lovo.lighted e\ e

From the Gardener's Chronicle.
Vulnablc Hint For Farmers.
The celebrated Mr. Robert Bakewel!
of Disltly, Leicestershire, and the found
er of the new Leicester sheep, used to
tell an anecdote, with exceeding high glee,
of a farmer not only of the olden school,
but of the golden times. This farmer,
who owned and occupied 1000 acres of
laud, had three daughters. When his
eldest daughter married, he gave her one
<|uarter of this land for her portion, but no
money; and he found, by a a little more
speed and a little better management, the
produce of his farm did not decrease.—
When his second daughter married, he
gave her one third of the remaining land
for her portion, but no money. He then
set to work, and ploughed up what he
called his poor dry furze land, even when
the fu ze covered, in some closes, nearly
half the land. After giving half his land
away to his daughters, to his great sur
prise he found that the produce increased;
he made more money because his new
hroken-up furze land brought excessive
crops, and at the same time he farmed the
whole of his farm better, for ho employed
luce times more laborers upon it ; he
use two hours sooner in the morning, had
no more dead fallows once in three years;
nstead of which ho got two green crops
none year, and ate them upon the land.
A garden never requires a dead fallow.—
liut the great advantage was, that he had
got the same money to manage 500 acres
as he had to manage 1000 acres : there
fore he laid out double the money upon
the land. When his third and last daugh
ter married, he gave her 250 acres, halt
which remained for her portion, and no
money, lie then found that he had the
same money to farm one quarter of the
land as he had at first to farm the whole.
He began to ask himself a few questions,
and set his wits to work how he was to
make as much of 250 acres as had done
ui 1 000 acres. Tie then paid ofl'lii* bailiff,
who weighed twenty stone ; rose with
the larks in the long days, and went to
bed with tlie lamb; he got as much more
work done for his money; he made his
servants, laborers, horses, mmc faster;
broke them from their snail’s pace ; and
found that the eye ol the master quickened
thb pace of the servant. He saw the be
ginning and the ending of every thing:
and to his servants and laboreas, instead
ci saying “(io and do it,” be said to them
“Let us go my boys and do it.” Be
tween come and go be found a great dif
ference He grubbed up the whole of
bis tmzc and ferns, and then ploughed the
whole of his poor grass land up, and con
verted a greatdeal of corn into meat, cut
bis hedges down, which had not been
plashed for forty or filly years ; straighten
ed bis zig-zag fences;cut bis water-cours
es straight, and gained a deal of land by
doing so; made dams and sluices, anil
irrigated all the land he could; he grubb
ed, up many of his hedges and borders
covered with bushes, in some places from
ten to fourteen yards in width, some more,
in his small closes, some not wider than
streets, and threw three, four, five, and
six, closes into one. He found that in
stead of growing white thorn hedges and
haws to feed foreign birds in the winter,
he could grow food for man instead of
migratory birds. Afer all this improve
ment he grew more, and made more of
250 acres than lie did from 1000; at the
same time he found out that half of Eng
land, at that that time, was not cultivated,
from the want of means to cultivate it with.
I told him the real value of labor always,
and what ought, to be done with a cer
tain number of men, oxen, and horses,
within a given time. I taught him to sow
lois and plough better; that there were
limits and measures to all things ; and that
the husbandman ought to be stronger than
the farm. 1 told him how to make hot
Imd colder, and cold land hotter, light
land stiffer, and stiff land lighter. I soon
caused him to shake off all his old deep
rooted prejudices, and I grafted new ones
in their places. 1 told him not to breed
inferior cattle, 6heop, or horses, but the
best of cW hiud, for the best consumed no
more tli"n tbo worst My friend became
a m .V mill iJmg old age, and died rich.

OLD DR. JACOB TOWNSEND,
THE ORIGINAL DISCOVERER OF THE
(iDßisinc Townsend Sarsaparilla.
Olil Dr. Townsend is now about 70 years of age. and has
long been known as the UTHOR and I) ISCOVER ER
of Hie OEXUIXE ORIQIJSTAI. “ TOWXSEXD S.i/i

manufacture, by which means it has been kept out of mar

proved its worth, and known its value. It had reached
the ears of many, nevertheless, as those persons who had
been healed of sore diseases, and saved from death, pro
claimed its excellence nnd wonderful
HHALING TOWER.
Knowing, many years ago. that he had. by his skill,
science and experience, devised an article which would he
of incalculable advantage to mankind when the means
would he furnished to bring it into universal notice, when
its inestimable virtues would be known mil appreciated.
This time has come, the means are suppled . this
UR.IXD .IXD UXE^U.iLI.EI) PREPARATION
is manufactured on the largest scale, and is called for
throughout the length and breadth of the land, especially
as it is found iiu.«,».»1,1c of degeneration or deterioration.
(Julike youngS. I* TotvnsendN. it improves with age. and
never changes, hut for the better ; because it is prepared on
scientific principles by a scientific wan. The highest knowl
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 known to medical men, contains many medicinal pro
portics, and some properties which are inert or useless, and
others, which if retained in preparing it for use, produce
ferment ‘linn and acid, which is injurious to the system,
dome of the pro|>erties 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 maniifactuie. Moreover, these
volatile principles, w hich fly oM in vapor, or as an exhala
tion. under heat, are the very essential medical properties
»f I he root, which give to :t all its value.
Any perron can boil or stew the root till they get a nark
colored liquid, which is more from the coloring matter in |
Jhe r n ot than from soy thing else - they can then strain
this insipid or vapid liquid, sweeten w<th sour molasses,
tnd then call it 1 .SARSAPARILLA EXTRACT or SY
RUP.” Dut 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 this way, it is made the most powerful agent in the
Cure of innumerable diseases.
Hence the reason why we hear commendations on every
side in its f«vor by men. women, and children. We fmd it
doing wonders m the cure of
COXSIMPTWX, DYSPEPSIA, and LIVER COM

over the body. It has not us equal in Colds and Coughs ;
and promotes easy expectoration and gentle perspiration,

Lei Facts I
FT OM M E N T IS UNNECESSARY— Another
\J extraordinary case of ASTHMA.
Blocntsyillf., Jones County, Ga., )
August 7th, 1849. y
Dr. 51. S. Thomson — bear Sir —Being under
the impression that a short statement relative to
my case might be 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 tog .e it desiring, if you think
proper, to have it published to the world.
STATEMENT:
In September, I -i , I was attacked with Asth
ma, w! li continued to return at intervals, more
or less frequent, for two years. I applied to
some f the most eminent mineral physicians iu
the Mate of .Mississippi, where I resided, but
without benefit—for i continued to get worse
so much so, that from Ist September, 1847, I
bad nn attack every night, with only five cxccp
i lion-, till f- ebruarv, 1840. During this long pe
j riod <d nearly eighteen months, my condition
wtis one of terrible suffering, compelled as I
w as, to sit up almost ail the time trying to catch
my breath, which every minute seemed us if it
were to be the last : indeed, I have been for ten
flajs at a time that I dared not place my bead
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 Homce
opatliio Doctor, who for a time, treated my case;
hot nla«! he also failed and left me in the very
depths of despair.
In this condition Heft Mississsppi and came to
Georgia, and in January of this year, as a forlorn
hope, placed myself under your care in Macon.
\ oil there saw, with many others, my condition,
which for a while,was just as described. I was
reduced to nearly skin and hone, weighing only
ID) Ihs., my general health having suffered se
verely from the repeated attacks of my fell tor
mentor ; but it was not long before I commen
eed improving. At first, I would miss one night,
then two, then more ; my general health also
improved, until now, lam proud to sav, that
through your instrumennality, I enjoy excellent
health—have had no attack of Asthma since the
first week in March, and now weigh 143 lbs.
my usual standard of weight in health.
Since then, I have exposed myself during all
this rainy season to ali weathers, without bein',
attacked, which fuily justifies and warrants me
in making tnis statement, requesting its publica
tion, trusting that others similarly situated, may
lie admonished to cease looking for a cure where

Holden’s Illustrated Dollar
magazine.
SINCE the death ofthe projector of this popu
lar the property lias passed into
the hands of the subscriber, who will continue
to publish it at the publication office, No. 109
Nassau street, New York.
Tlie New Volume, to be commenced ori the
first of January, 1850, will comprise many im
portant improvements, which, it is believtd,
xv ill 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
people in the Republic, which shall be both in
structive and amusing ; and lree alike from the
grossness which characterizes much of the cheap
literature of the day, and front the vapidity of
the so called “Ladies Magazines” The illus
trations will consist ofOrigimil Draw ings engrav
ed on wood by the best Artists ; Portia its of re
markable Persons, and Views of remarkable
Places, illustrated by pen and pencil. A strict
revision will be exercised that no improper arti
cle, or word, shall ever be admitted, so that it
may be safely taken by persons ofthe utmost re
finement, anti read at the fire-side for the amuse
ment or instruction of tlie family circle.
The Review department of the Magazine will
contain brief critical notices ofall ihe new pub
lirations of the day, and will form u complete
chronicle of current literature.
From the business and literary connexions al
ready cstablishad, tlie best assistance that the
country can afford will he secured for completing
the plans of the publisher, and nothing will be
wanting that ample pecuniary resources and
watchful industry can obtain to make the 51ag
azine the leading Literary Periodical of America.
The 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; hut, with tlie new ]
avenues daily opening for the circulation of j
works of merit; tile constantly increasing popu
lation of the 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 he sure to benefit the
public if it should not enrich himself.
The Magazine will be under the Editorial
charge and supervision of Charm's 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 of eminent Divines of the American
Churches, which have formed a conspicuous fea
ture of “HOLDEN,” wil l be continued in the
succeeding Volumes ofthe 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 he issued on the 15tli
of December. Each number will consist of G 4
pages, and numerous Engravings. The Terms
are One Dollar a Year in ad'ranee. —the Magazine
will lie 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 lias 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 sl3. 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 ftl
each.
Letters must be addressed to “Holden’s Dol
lar Magazine, No. 1(10 Nassau Street, New
York, ” and post-paid in all cases.

THE GLOBE!,
A Congressional, Agricultural and Litcraru
A’ewspaper. “
'S’HE approach of Congress calls out the A n .
IL nual Prospectus of the Globe Establish
ment.
The time is full of inttfrost. The confin* i n
of anew Administration—the consequent broach
ing ofn new poiiey touching the internal con
cerns of the country —the new and most impor
tant issues arising front the late vast ncrcssion to
the public domain, and the great national olijt :r .| s
associated with it—lhe impending difficulty in
oor relations with the possible coin
plication of our affairs with the troubles of Eu
rope, —conspire to create great expectation ns (0
the proceedings of tlie next Congress. The ap
proaching Session will probably continue till ] a ( e
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. Tlio
discussion, spreading from the Capitol to the re
motest parts of the Union, forms a public opin
ion which reacts upon Congress and controls it»
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 tlio Globe. Extraor
dinary preparations have therefore been made to
meet tiie increasing demands of our rapidly im
proving and growing country for Congressional
intelligence.
The Globk Press has already enlisted the
ablest Reporters yet known to Congress ; /{»
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 he 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
of the preceding day—the vast addition made to
tin: mass published, by tlie protracted sessions
anti tlie fuller renorts given.—will render ntir
enterprise a failure, unless Congress shall so far
patronize it as to become a purchaser of such
portion ofthe daily sheets issued,as shall contri
bute to make the reports that fill them. Tlie
undersigned has ventured on the preparation lie
has made for the next Session, in the expci tation
that Congress will subscribe for ns 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 reporiing,
and it will give an impulse to the circulation of
the Congressional Print, which, although the
cheapest in the Linion (tlie 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 anti material—becomes the sole
proprietor thereof, and will give his exclusive
attention to tlie Congressional Depai tmcnl.
J. C. Pickett will conduct the Miscellaneous
Department of the Newspaper. F. P. Blair
retires from both concerns, with prayers for their
permanent usefulness and prosperity.
The Globe will he published daily duringtlie
session of Congress, and Weekly the remainder
ofthe year, and will undergo distribution in the
form oi'a Weekly Globe, a Congressional Globe
anti ail Appendix.
The Weekly Globe will contain Agricultural
and miscellaneous articles ; and will occasion
ally give debates of such importance as command
universal interest.
The price of tlie Weekly Globe is reduced to
One Dollar, with a view to obtain a more gene
ral circulation. Snhscribets who have hitherto
paid §2 per annum, will he charged only $1 al
ter the expiration of the first year.
The Congressional Globe will embody, as it
has done for the last sixteen years, Congression
al pioccedings and debates exclusively.
The Appendix will embrace the revised
speeches separately, and tlie messages of tlie
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 eaeli a week during the first
four weeks of a session, and two or three num
bers of each a week afterwards, until the end ot
the session. Each volume will probably com
prise two thousand royal quarto pages, of small
type.
‘ Complete Indexes to the Congressional Gb’he
nnd Appendix will be sent to subscribers soon
after Congress adjourns.
Nothing of a political party aspect vtiWupp®*’
in the Globe save that which will lie found
] the Congressiohal reports. A paper assuming
to be an impaitial vehicle for all sides, entilin'
maintain its character if the editorial columns
reflect a party hue.
