.tlaslatlon Cotton.
We co ( >y the following interesting arti
cle in relation to the Mast ad on Cotton,
from the last number of the “ Alabama
Planter.” This species of cotton excited
much interest among planters some three
or four years ago. The experiments then
made were, so far as we are informed, high
ly satisfactory. In many instances the
yield was greater than that of Pet't Gulf,
and in all cases the plant was n ted for its
large and vigorous growth. The fibre
was superior both as to length and tenaci
ty, and at the period we refer it bade fair
to supercede other kinds of cotton on the
lich bottom and parire lands. Os la e
years, however, we have heard very little
upon the subject and are not even aware
whether the planting has been increased
since then.
There can be no question about the su
periority of the staple of Mastadon over
all other upland cottons. The fact that
it has heretofore commanded l|to2cts.
per pound rare than the Petit Gulf is am
ple proof. Ifdien the yield per acre is
equal to other kinds, we should suppose a
sufficient inducement existed for a large
increase of its culture.
The following letter written by a gen
t’eman of Boston to a mercantile house of
Mobile, will be read with interest by plan,
ters and others connected with cotton.
The writer is a gentleman of high respec
tability and long experience in the manu
facture of cotton.
Boston, Nov. 14, IS4O.
As the Mastadon Cotton has not become
to any extent a distinct article in the mar
ket, ltke the Sea Island, and as the mix
ture of this with the short staple cotton
has made it so objectionable to those North
ern manufacturiers whose machinery is
not suitable for spinning it, there ha-, been
some apprehension that the cultivation of
it would rut be abandoned. But this, 1
think, would not take place if there should
be a proper understanding between the
planter and the manufuotuier.
In the first place, most of our mills are
built expressly for the manufacture of
coarse goods, and are not suitable for spin
ning cotton of longer staple than the com
mon Upland or N. Orleans,and until there
should be such a quantity of the Mastadon
in market as would insure them a regular
supply, it would not be safe for them to
alter their machinery ; hut whenever this
should he the case, this cotton is so much
b 'tier adapted to certain purposes, and
would make such an improvement in the
quality of several articles which might be
manufactured from it, that 1 have no doubt
the machinery would be changed and a
d ipted to the purpose as fast as a supply
of the cotton could be depended on.
But there should be the greatest care on
the part of the planter that the Mastadon
Cotton should come to market as a distinct
article, aud not he allowed to be mixed
either in the field or the bale,so thai a pur
chaser of the Mastadon can rely upon the
staple for his purpose, aud the purchaser
of the Upland may not suffer from the
mixture of a kind of cotton which his ma
chinery is not adapted to spin.
I have written the foregoing under the
assumption that the .Mastadon Cotton can
actually be produced at as low a cost as
the Upland and Gulf caltons ; some have
supposed it would not cost as much, on ac
count of the plant being of a more thrifty
and larger growth, and that therefore the
tame quantity of ground, and the same
labor would produce a larger crop.
I would mention, also, that 1 have been
told that the saw gin requires an altera
tion in order to gin this cotton to the best
advantage, by taking out one half the saws,
so as to leave a greater space between
them, otherwise the gin ad ip ed to the
short cotton would break the staple, and 1
think 1 have seen some Mastadon Cotton
which showed the effects of this, and which
I supposed at the time was occasioned by
a mixture of short staple cotton.
I hope you will make enquiry upon
these subjects, and it will be very interest
ing to me to kuovv the rpsul', as we are
using in our mill no cotton but the Masta
don and Sea Island, and in tonsequence
our goods receive a much more beautiful
finish than Largish goods of a similar kind,
which are usually made of short staple
Cotton. This fact, I think, cannot fail to
insure eventually a good market for the
Mastadon Cotton.
I would add that, besides the adaptation
of this article to ihe fine fabrics, it is pecu
liarly suited fjr Cotton Duck, a heavy ar
ticle, the manufacture of which is rapidly
increasing, and bids fair to open a large
consumption of cotton, and the strength
and length of staple of the Mastadon ren
der* it the most suitable material for this
purpose.
I am informed tliar, in some parts of the
country, the Mastadon Cotton lias stood
the vicissitudes of the present season better
than the common cotton, and that certain
soils which arc not favorable for cultiva
tion with the common cotton, are better
suited to this. ■*.
These circumstances, together with its
being a more thrifty plant, lead me to hope I
that when the attention of cultivators is I
directed to the subject, and they have |
such experience in raising it as to do it to
the best advance, it maybe produced at'
loss cost than cotton of shorter staple. I

THE ORIGINAL DISCOVERER OF THE
Genuine Townsend Sarsaparilla.
Oid Dr. Townsend is now about 70 years ol »t:e. and lifts
long been known as the AVTHOR and DISCOI'ER ER
of the G ENGINE ORIOUY.IL ‘ TOWNSEND SJiR
SAPA RILLA.' 9 I*eing poor, he was compelled to limit its
iiianuf -dare, hv which me *ns 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 i
the ears of many, nevertheless, as those persons who had
been healed of sore diseases, and saved from death, pro*
claimed its excellence and wonderful
HEALING BOWER.
Knowing, many years ago. that he had. by* his skill,
science and experience, a- vised an article which would he
of incalculable ad .an time to mankind when the means
would he furnished to bring it into universal notice, when
its inestimable virtues would he known and appreciated.
This time has come, the means are supplied ; this
GRAND AND UNEQUALLED PREPARATION
Is manufactured ou 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. P Townsend’s, it improves with age. and
never changes, hut for the better : because it is prepared i<n
scientific principles by a scientific man. The highest knowl
edge of Uhemistry. and the latest discoveries of the art,
have all been brought into requisition in the manufacture
of tiie Old Dr’s Sarsaparilla. The Sarsaparilla root, it is
well known to medical men, contains many medicinal pro
porties, and some properties which are inert or useless, and
other*, which if retained in preparing it for use, produce
fermentation and acid, which is injurious to the system.
Some of the p;oj*erlies 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 tho e experienced in its manufactu e. Moreover, these
volatile principles, w hich fly off in vapor, or as an exhala
tion. under heat, are the very essential medical properties
t»f the root, w hich give to it all its value.
Any person can boil or stew the root till they pet a darg
eolored liquid, w hich 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,
and then call it “ SARSAPARILLA EXTRACT or SY
RUP.” Hut 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 lirst removed, every thing capable of
becoming acid or of fermentation, is extracted anil 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 ivj hear coimnenhetions on every
side tn its favor by men, women, ami children. We find it

llkar Mu : —W hile so many certificates of
individuals living off at great distances are ap
pealing in the papers commendatory of Bal
sams, Slyrups, Pills and Powders, I think it but
right that medical research and superior success
of some of our practitioners at home should be
made known to our community, that those of
our neighborhood who are afflicted may not on
ly save their health but their money also, and at
the same line encourage the efforts of those who
would give character and consequence to this
section of the Union. 1 have been led to these
remarks by the teachings of my own experi
ence :
About seven years ago I was attacked with a
disease of the liver and lungs, accompanied with
haemorrhage or spitting of blood, with severe
and most harrassing and distressing cough,cold
sweats of nights, with a wasting diarrhser, and
a great part of the time confined to my bed, and
so debilitated generally, that l could do hut lit
tle in the way of business I thus continued
lor over five years, making every effort during
that time to regain my health. 1 first applied to
tliepliyscians ofSavannah, where I then resided,
out their eiiorts failed to relieve me. I then
tried Houck’s Panacea for a long time—then
Wistur’s Balsam of W’ild Cherry, Sec., till I had
spent hundreds of dollars in their purchase, and
still found myself ns bad off as before. I then
applied to your townsman, Dr. M. S. Thomson,
who I am happy to say, after treating my case
some G or 7 months, restored me to sound, and
I believe to permanent health, for I am now and
have been for tiie last 18 months in the enjoy
ment of uninterrupted health. This is my ex.
perience, and I doubt not you will agree with
me in the opinion, that 1 have good reasons for
recommending the Doctor and his remedies in
cases ot this kind, lar above the most eminent
physicians whose skill I had tested, and the far
iamed and much boasted balsams and panaceas
with which I had been dosed. Let others do
likewise, if they would he cured, and that they
may not perish for lack of knowledge, I here
by request that you will give publicity to ir.y

Iloldcn's llliHitriitcd Bolku’
Magazine.
SINCE the death of the. projector of this popu
lar Magazine, the property has passed into
the hands of the subscriber, who will continue
to publish it at the publication office, No. iOO
Nassau street. New York.
The New Volume,to be commenced on the
first of January, 1850, will comprise many im
portant improvements, which, it is believed,
will render the Magazine one of the best Period
icals published in the country, ns it ertainly is
the cheapest Among these improvements will
he new and beautiful type, fine calendered {ta
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 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 hy the best Artists ; Portraits of re
markable Persons, and Views of remarkable
Places, illuslrated 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 oftlie utmost re
finement, and read at the fire-side for the amuse
ment or instruction of the family circle.
The Review department of the M.agazine will
contain brief critical notices of all the new pub
licaiions of the day, and will form a complete
chronicle of current literature.
From the business and literary connexions al
ready established, the best assistance that the
country can afford w ill he 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.
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; 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 nnd
artistic attractions to those of any other work
now issued ; the proprietor fearlessly engages
in an enterprise which will he sure to benelit the
public if it should not enrich himself.
The Magazine will ho under the Editorial
charge and supervision of Chaiu.es F. Briggs,
who has been connected with it from the begin
ning. The “Pulpit Portraits," a series of Bio
graphical Sketches,accompanied hy well engrav
ed Portraits of eminent Divines of the American
Churches, which have formed a conspicuous fea
ture of “HOLDEN,” will be continued in the
succeeding Volumes of the Magazine, and will
render it of peculiar value to religious people ol
every denomination.
The Fifth Volume will commence on the first
of January next, but will be issued on the 15tli
of December. Each number will consist of 64
pages, and numerous Engravings. The Terms
are One Dollar a Year in advance —the Magazine
will be plainly and carefully directed and sent
hy mail at the risk of the subscriber. As each
number will be stereotyped missing orlost num
bers can be at any time supplied when ordered,
but will bo deducted from the time for which
payment has been received. Remittances may
he sent at the risk ofthe Proprietor, provided n
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, ’ ni\dpost-paid, in all cases.

THE GLOBE,
A Congressional, Agricultural and Literary
Newspaper.
'■'HE approach of Congress calls out the An-
IL nual Prospectus of the Globe Establish
ment.
The time is full of interest. The coming in
of anew Administration—the consequent broach
ing ofa new poiicy Kuching the internal con
cerns of the 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 lo
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. Thu
discussion, spreading from the Capitol to the re
motest parts of the Union, forms a public opin
ion which reacts upon Congress and controls its
decisions.
To become a useful instrument, however bum
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 growingcountry for Congressional
intelligence.
The Globe Press has alrcrdy enlisted the
ablest Reporters yet known to Congress ; its
materials and machinery are of the best sort ;
and the exclusive devotion of the individual w ho
for so many years has made it his study to embo
dy and publish the labors of Congress, gives ren
son to hope that an advance will be 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
the mass published, by the. protracted sessions
j and the fuller reports given,—will render our
[ enterprise a failure, unless Congress shall so far
patronize it as to become a purchaser of such
portion oftlie daily sheets issued,as shall contri
bute to make the reports that fill them. The
undersigned lias ventured on the preparation lie
has made for the next Session, in the expectation
that Congress will subscribe for as many daily
sheets for each Member, at the subscription price
as will, in part, defray the expense of reporting,
aud give them circulation as Congressional docu
ments in their several districts. This will ena
ble the Publisher to bear the charge of roporing,
and it wi II 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 y ield sufficient profit to
make the system permanent.
John C. Rivf.s having purchased the interest
of F. P. Blair in Jackson Hall llie printing
office machinery and material—heromes the sole
proprietor thereof, and w ill give his exeksive
attention to the Congressional Department.
J. C. Pickett will conduct the Miscellaneous
Department of the Newspaper. F. I*. I’lair
retires front both concerns, w ith prayers for llieir
permanent usefulness and prosperity.
The Globe will be published daily duringtlie
session of Congress, and Weekly IHo 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 will occasion
ally give debates of such importance us command
universal interest.
The price ofthe Weekly Globe is reduced lo
One Dollar, with a view to obtain a more gene
ral circulation. Subscribers who have hitherto
paid $2 per annum, will becharged only $1 af
ter the expiration ofthe first year.
The Congressional Globe will embody, ns it
has done for the iasi sixteen years, Congression
al piocccdings 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 ns fust as the proceedings of Con
gress will make a number Subscribers may ex
pect one number of each a week during the first
four weeks of a session, and two 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 he sent to subscribers soon
after Congress adjourns.
Nothing of a political party aspect will appear
in the Globe save that w hich will be found in
the Congressiohnl reports. A paper assuming
to he an impartial vehicle for all sides, cannot
maintain its character if the editorial columns
reflect a party hue.

the session of Congress, and Weekly during
