gggricttltural. .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.

Principal Office , 102 -V x.*au st., Neie York Ciijf. •iW^^XI). 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 dome wonders in ihe cure of COMSVMPT/UJY, 1) ysPKPSIS, and I.tVF.R COM P/..11.YT, and in KIIKU.M.iT/SM, SCHOFUi.A. PICKS, COsi'/KK.YK.ss. .ill rVT.I.VKOI'S KUUP riCJfS, PIMP I.

Hay, Editor Georgia Telegraph : 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.

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.

VVM II DIETZ, Proprietor. dec I 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.
