Like billows streaming in the light,
Sly thoughts flowM on a moment pas: ;
lint now their hue so purely bright,
With sudd-n gloom is overcast.
*o o’er the white and sunlit crests
Os the blue ware n hicli sparkled free,
Sonic envious clouds will heave their breasts,
And chase their shadows o’er the sea.
How slight the barrier, which divides
The rapid stjeams of joy and grief!
How often do they join their tides,
And part again, before a leaf!

I>kAR Major.— l feel inclined totrouble
you aa;ain with a few facts, the lesult of an
ssxpcriment on a small scule, in raising
corn on worn-out-land.
The other day, I gathered three three
liorso wagon-loads of good con from
about two acres of land, being a pnr ion of
n small field containing six acres, which 1
cultivated in 1817, after the fashion of our
fathers, and only gathered three loads of
*ery sorry corn from the whole—(the same
wagon.)
I he statements given above ninv he
sufficient to induce some friend to inquire
How that was done 1 if so, lm so kind as
to say to such that it was not done by any
unusal amount of plowing or hoeing—nor
was it the result of favorable seasons—fo
il* 1347 the seasons were more favorable ;
and in addition to that, the corn of 1847
received n plowing and two hoeings above
the present year; but that it was done by
plowing differently, and especially deeper,
and by an application of that peculiar kind
of stuff "what makes poor laud yield big
corn,” frequently called “manure.” The
land was broken with twisters and subsoil
plow, running two of the former arid one of
the latter, seven inches deep. By this
method the surface was completely turned
over,and the subsoil pulverized. In plunt
ing, 1 gave five feet by four, distance, and
dropped two grains to the hill ; on this I
put a small shovelful of compost, and cov
ered with a scooter, two furrows. This
corn was never plowed but twice, neither
hoed or thinned.
If I may be allowed to give an opinion
respecting the above, I should say, that if
the corn had been planted differently as to
distance, and plowed ofiener, hoed and
thinned, it would have been considerably
better.
Perhaps enough lias been said to lead
•omo friend to inquire after the method of
preparing the compost. Also, how long
time was spent in hauling and applying.
If so, the compost was prepared by mix
ing stable and decayed vegetable matter,
or dirt from the woods, about equal parts ;
was hauled and applied by three hands, in
about ten hours.
Ans Rr rioN or Food in Plants. —The
foil > wing extract from “principles of Sci
entific Botany," on the absorption of fond
in plants, is a curious comparison with
the same in animals: “Plants have no
stomachs, nor the analogue of a stomach,
and consequently they have no digestion.
The animal kingdom has a stomach, in or
der to enable it to convert the nourish
ment received from a solid to a fluid, from
an insoluble to a soluble form ; then fol
lows the ahsorpti in of the nutriment
through homogeneous membranes. But
plants must find all the substance requi
site to their nutrition already in a state of
solution; they have no gastric juice by
means of which they may chemically de
compose and des live substances not read
ily prepared; nor have they salivary
glands, in order to maintain the supply (if
solvent juice. Tho organic elements, car
hot) and nitrogen, are only present, as car
bonic acid, carbonate ammonia, dissolved
in water. Hence vegetation is absolutely
dependent upon water as a common sol
vent. Countries that are entirely desti
tute of water are incapable of sustaining
vege’ation, as is the case of Sarah a, a por
tion of the Gobiwuste, &c ; whilst the pu
rest sand ifsupplied with water, becomes
cnpableofsupportingavegetation, though
it may boos a very poor and unproductive
order. Upon the supply of rain from
equator to the poles, and more especially
upon the supply of vapor iti the atmos
phere, the luxuriance of vegetation is
strictly dependent.”
Cohn Cons.—A friend who read an
articcle in some paper receommending
cobs, ground or unground as constituting
a valuable feed for stock, undertook to test
the truth of the statement for himself.—
He had a large quantity on hand and after
providing himself with a proper vessel,
(half-hogshead tub,) lie filled it with cobs,
and then with a solution of salt in water.—
In this step the robs remained till they
bad embibed a sufficiency of the fluid to
render them soft. In this condition they
were fed out to the stock—half a peck
to a full grown cow or ox in the morning
and the same quantity at night. He re
marks that all his animals are extremely
fond of them, and that they consume a
much less quan ity of hay and grain th
they did before he commenced giving
them cob feed. Neither do they require
salt in its natural state. He’ has also
ground several bushels of cobs, and find
the meal an excellent article for making
“mush.”

THE ORICINAL DISCOVERER OK THE
Genuine Townsend Sarsaparilla.
Old Dr. Townsend * now a boat 70 years of nge, and has
long been known as the AUTHOR and DISCOrF.RF.fi
of me GF.XUIXF ORIG/X.IL ‘ TOIYXSF.XI) SAR
SAPARIL/.A *• Felng poor, he was compelled to limit its
inanufactare, by which means it has been kept out of mar
ket, and the Kales circumscribed to those only who had
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
HEALING POWER.
Knowing, many pears ago. that he hnd. by his skill,
science and experience, devised an article which would be
of incalculable advantage to mankind w hen the means
would be furnished to bring it into universal notice, w hen
its inestimable virtues would he known and appreciated.
Phis time lias come, tin’ means are supplied ; this
GRAXD AXD UXFQUALLFI) PRFPARATIOX
is manufactured on the Inrgext sotie. and is called for
throughout the length and breadth of lh« hand, especially
as it is found incapable of degeneration or deterioration.
Unlike young S. I* Tow nsend’s. it improves with age. and
never changes, hut for the better: because it is prepared on
scientific. principles by a scientific man. 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
pertie*, and some proj#*rties which are inert or useless, and
others, which if retained in preparing it for use, produce
fermentation aud acid, which is injurious to the system.
Some of the properties of Sarsaparilla are so volatile , that
they entirely evaporate and are lost in ihe preparation, if
they are not preserved by a scientific process , known only
to those experienced in Us manufacture. Moreover, these
volatile principles, w hich fly oH' in vapor, or as an exhala
tion. under heat, are the very essential medical properties
«f the root, which give to it all its value.
Any person can boil or stew the root till they get a dart
colored liquid, which is more from the coloring matter in
Ihe root than from any thing else; they can then strain
this Insipid or vapid liquid, sweeten with sour molasses,
and then call It “SARSAPARILLA EXTRACT or SY
ItIJP.” lint such is not the article known n* 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 innuinerablo diseases.
Hence the reason why we hear commendations on every
side In its favor by men, women, und children. We find it
doing wonders in the cure of
COXSVMPTIOX, DYSPEPSIA, nnd LIVF.R COM

It possesses a marvellous efficacy in nil complaints arising
from Indigestion, from Acidity of the Stomach, from unequal
circulation, determination of blood to the head, palpitation
of the heart, cold feet and hands, cold chills ami hot (lashes
over the body. It has not its equal in ('olds and Coughs ;
and promotes easy expectoration and gentle perspiration,
relaxing stricture of the lungs, throat, and every other part.

Dysjiepsia but acid 1 Do we not all know that when food
sours in our stomachs, what mischiefs it produces ? flatu
lence, heartburn, palpitation of the heart, liver complaint,
diarrhtea, dysentery, colic, and corruption of the oiood?
What is Scrofula but an acid humor in the body 1 What
produces all the humors which bring on Eruptions of the
Skin, Scald Head, Salt Rheum, Erysipelas, White Swell
lugs, Fever Sores, and all ulcerations internal and external?
It is nothing under heaven, but an acid substance, which
sours, nnd thus spoils all the fluids of the body, more or
.ess. What causes Rheumatism hut a sour or acid fluid
w hich insinuates itself Itctween the joints and elsewhere,
i irritating and inflaming the delicate tissues upon which it
acts? So of nervous diseases, of impurity of the blood, oi

Wc wish it understood, liecause it is the absolute, truth,
that 8?. P. Townsend's article and Old Dr. Jacob Towm

uvular ; that they are unlike in every particular, having
not one single thing in common.
As S. I*. Townsend is no doctor, and never was, is no
chemist, no pharmaceutist—knows no more of medicine or
disease than any other common, unscientific, unprofessional
man. w hat guarantee can the public have that they are re
ceiving a genuine scientific medicine, containing all the
x miles of the articles used in preparing it. and xvhich are in
capable of changes xxhich might render them the AGENTS
ot Disease instead of health.
But what cl>e should lie expected from one who know**
nothing comparatively of medicine or disease ! It requires
a person of some experience to cook and serve up even a

Df.ar Sik : — While so many certificates of
individuals living off at great distances are ap
pealing in the papers commendatory of Bal
sams, Syrups, Pills and Powders, I think it hut
right that medical research and superior success
of some of our practitioners at home should bo
ru idc known to our community, that those of
our neighborhood who are afflicted may not on
ly save their health hut their money also, and at
the same ii.no encourage the efforts of those who
would give character and consequence to this
section of the Union. I have been led to these
remarks hy 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 nnd distressing cough,cold
sweats of nights, with a wasting diarrlimr, and
a great part of the time confined to my bed, and
so debilitated generally, that I could do but lit
tle in the way of business 1 thus continued
for over five years, making every effort during
that time to regain my health. 1 first applied to
thephyscians of .Savannah, where I then resided,
but their etlorts faiied to relieve mo. I then
tried Houck’s Panacea for a long time—then
Wistar’s Balsam of XV'ild Cherry,&c., till I had
spent hundreds of dollars in their purchase, and
still found myself as had off as before. I then
applied to your townsman, Dr. M. S. Thomson,
who I am happy to say, after treating my ccsc
some 6 or 7 months, restored me to sound, and
I believe to permanent health, for I am now and
have been for the last Id months in the enjoy
ment of uninterrupted health. This is my ex.
patience, and I doubt not you will agree with
me in the opinion, that I have good reasons for
recommending the Doctor and his remedies in
cases of this kind, far above the most eminent
physicians whose skill I had tested, and the far
famed 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 nr.y
statement in jour widely circulating sheet, and
much oblige yours, respectfully,

Holden’s Illn*tr:it<Ml Dollar
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. 100
Nassau street, New York.
The New Volume, to lie commenced on the
first of January, 1850, will comprise many im
portant improvements, which, it is believid,
will render the Magazine one oftliebest 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 he both in
structive and amusing ; and free 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 of Original Drawings engrav
ed on wood hy the best Artists ; Portraits of re
markable Persons, and Views of remarkable
Places, illustrated hy pen and pencil. A strict
revision will be exercised that no improper arti
cle, or word, shall ever he admitted, so that it
may be safely taken by persons ofthe utmost re
finement, and read at the fire-side for the amuse
ment or instruction ofthe family circle.
The Review department ofthe Magazine will
contain brief critical notices ofall the new pub
lications of the day, and will form a complete
chronicle of current literature.
Front the business and literary connexions al
ready established, the best assistance that the
country can afford will be secured for completing
the plans of the publisher, and nothing will be
wanting that ample pecuniary resources and
watchful industry can obtain to make tbe Mag
azine the leading Literary Periodical of America.
The extremely low rate at which it is published
precludes tbe hope of proSt, except from a circa
iation 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 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 Ciiari.es F. Briggs,
who has been connected with it front 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,” 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, hut will ho issued on the 15th
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
by mail at the risk of the subscriber. As each j
number will be stereotyped missing or lost num. 1
hers can he 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 oftlie Proprietor, provided a |
description ofthe bills are taken, and enclosed
in the presence of the Postmaster as evidence of
tile 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 he 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, ’ an A post-paid in all cases.

THE GLOBE,
A Congressional, Agricultural und Literar
.Yewspaper.
r |''llE approach ofCongress calls out the Au
8. nual Prospectus of the Globe Establish
ment.
The time is full of interest. The coming i n
ofa new Administration —the consequent broach
ing of anew poiicy tcuci.ing the internal con
cerns of the country —the new and most impor
tant issues arising from the late vast accession to
the public domain, and the great national object*
associated with it—the impending difficulty in
our relations with l'rance,and the possible com
plication of our affairs with the troubles of Eu
rope,—conspire to create grent expectation as to
the proceedings of the next Congress. The ap
proaching Session w ill probably continue till late
in the summer of 1850. The debates, from the
agitation of so tunny questions of vital interest to
the Republic, will draw forth all the talent of
the National Legislature. To bring its delibera
tions home to tho people, on each succeeding
day, while measures are maturing, is, in effect,
to bring the whole nation into council. The
discussion, spreading from the Capitol to the re
motest parts ofthe 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 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 lias already enlisted the
ablest Reporters yet known to Congress ; it*
materials and machinery arc of tho 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 on advance will he made in tho
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 debate*
ofthe 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 far
patronize it as to become a purchaser of such
portion of the daily sheets issued, as shall contri
bute to make the reports that fill them. TIIO
undersigned has ventured on the preparation ho
has made for 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
of F. P. Blair in Jackson llall—the printing
office machinery and material—becomes the sole
proprietor thereof, and will give liis excltsiva
attention to the Congressional Deportment.
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 be published daily during the
session of Congress, and Weekly the remainder
ofthe 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 to
One Dollar, with a view to obtain a more gene
ral circulation. Subscribers w lio have hitherto
paid $2 per annum, will he charged only $1 lif
ter the expiration of the first year.
The Congressional Globe will embody, as it
has done for the last sixteen years, Congresiion-
I al piocccdings anil debates exclusively.
The Appendix will embrace the revised
speeches separately, and the messages of tlie
I President of tbe United States, and the reports
1 ofthe Heads ofthe Executive Departments.
The Congressional Globe and Appendix vs ill
he published as fast as the proceedings of Con*
gresß will make a number Subscribers may ex
pect one number of each a week during the first
four weeks, of a session, and two nr 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 he an impaitial vehicle for all sides, cannot
maintain its character if the editorial column
reflect a partv hue.
