The I'ariner's Daughter.
She may not, in the mazy dance,
With jeweled maidens vie ;
She may not smile on courliy swain
With soft, bewitching eyo ;
She rannftt boast a form nnd mien
That lavish wealth has bought her ;
But ah t she lias much fairer charms,
The Farmer's peerless daughter!
The rose and lily on her cheek
Together love to dwell,
II er laughing blue eyes wreath around
The heart a witching spell ;
Her smile is bright as morning's glow
Upon the dewy piatn,
And listening to her voice, we dream
That spring has come again.
The timid fawn is not more wild,
Nor yet mote gay and free,
The lily’s cup is not more pure
In all its purity.
Os all the wild flowers in the wood,
Or by the clirvstal water,
There’s pure nor fair than she,
Tito fanner's peetless daughter.
Then tell me not of jeweled fair—
The brightest jewol yet
I* the heart where virtue dwells
And innocence is set!
The glow of health upon her cheik,
The grace no rule has taught her,—
The fairest wreath that beauty twines,
Is for the Farmer’s daughter!

Potatoes This flue vegatable, commonly
called Irish Potatoe, is a native of South Ameri
ca, and in its wild state is a small, hitter, tin.
palatable root, and has been brought from i g
original obscurity and worthlessness, to be n
staple article ofhurnnn fond, and to have becomo
oiio of the almost nccesary annual crops for
the sustenance of man. Behold the vast hen “fit
that Agricultural science has conferred on man.
hind, in bringing this one simple root to i;* edi
ble perfection ! How few ever give a thong 1
to the fact, that but for the patient toil and shill
ofthe Horticulturist, no mealy potatoes would
grace their tables, their meats would go.unhash
ed, for the want of a vegetable exactly suited
to mix with it, and the Cod Fish would still
sport in his briny element, around New Found
land's rugged banks, untempted by the fisher
man’s bait, had not tho Horticulturist's skill
made a vegetable so nicely suited to mix w ith
his dry and inspied flesh. Oil think of this, v
lovers of that furfatned Yankee dish, Cod Fish
nod Potatoes, and learn to bless the genius cf
Horticulture.
The best Irish Potatoes are made in a cool
and moist climate, and the nearer wo can up.
proaoh that, by artificial means, tho more per
fect will be our potatoes. It is not merely the
growth ofthe potato that we are to look to, I u
its firinceous qualities after its maturity. No
matter what tho size or quantity of potatoes
muy be made upon a git on piece of ground, if
tho potato is watery and heavy when cooked,
they are worthless, and are unhealthy. To
have the Irish Potato in this hot climate in per*
section, plant after the following method,and my
o.vn word for it, any person that can eitltor beg,
borrow, buy. or steal straw, will never plant
after the Northern fashion, in open earth, again.
As soon af.cr Christmas as possible, plow cr
spade up the piece of ground designed for the
potato patch, lay it off in furrow s eight to ten
inches deep ; now fill the furrow with partially
decomposed straw or leaves, (wheat, oat,or pine
straw, will answer,) cut the potame once in two
and place them sis inches apart, tho cu’ side
downwards, on tile straw ; now level the top of
the ridge, covering the seed,straw and all, with
earth, and then cart on straw, scattering it evenly
over the bed, at least eighteen inches deep, two
feut will ba be’ter, tho winter rains will boat
the straw down compactly, decomposition com.
mencing in the straw i , . e furrows, and in the
straw next the ground, the potntoo sprouts find
their way up through the straw, and snould un
untimely frost nip the ;<>pg, tho tubers are not
affected by it, as when planted in the ground ,
tho tops w ill still push up through the straw,
and eventually cover the whole patch with thn r
dark green foliage. The evenness of the tem
perature with the moisture of the decomposing
straw, will keep the po ato always mealy. No
matter how dry the season may be, the yield
will be greater than when pi rued in the ordin
ary way, and when once planted, it is an end of
the culture until they are l ikon out for the ta
ble The same piece of ground will improve
in productiveness for years, as *oe straw decom
poses Many have failed in this method ofcul
t iro, from the simple fact that they have not ap
plied haifsiraw enough. They neither plant
in the ground or sa the straw, and the summer
nun burns up the fruit oftheir immature planting.
Pila on the straw, pTle on the straw,’ if you wish
mealy “pink eyes,” or cracking “ yalier skins,”
end tha earlier it in dione the greater will be
your crop. It ins been considered a doubtful
policy to save seed of the Irish Potato in this
climate, but I last summer dined with a friend
in Gieeosborough, Ga ,and found as fine Irish
Potatoes upon his table as I ever saw North,
snd ho assured me he had raised them from seed
of his own saving for ten years His plan was,
when lua potatoes were ripe to dig them, and
spteud them in n cool, dry and airy place, and ho
has never found any difficulty in keeping a plcn- ,
t»fu! supply for his table through the season,and
a plenty for seed ; try it, ye who would sav e ]
four dollars the barrel for your seed potatoes. ‘
One half the Irish Po'at e.< are spoiled in conk- |
ing ; to boil them an hour or *wo, take r.ff the 1
ektns, grease them over with rancid butter, and '
place tliern cold on the table, is the very acme
of the gastronomic art with many. Shade of
Epicurus, protect our stomachs from such indi
gestible stuff I To have the potato in thegreatest
edible perfection, the water should boil before
thn potato is put into it, a p'entiful supplv ofsalt
bo added to the water, and the skins at the ends I
of the potatoes cutoff, this will render them
tncaly. They should not remain in writer one I

etc. This Townsend is no doctor, and never was ; bnt was

principal Office, 102 -V/# st., .Vai# York City.
THE ORIGIVAL DISCOVERER OF THE
Genuine Townsend Sarsaparilla.
O’d Dr. Townsend i» now about 70 years of nge. and has
long been known as the AUTHOR and DISCOVERER
of Uik'GENGINE ORIGINAL ' TOWNSEND SAR
SAPARILLA.' 1 Pcing jKM»r. he was compelled to limit its
manufacture, by w hich me - ns it ha# been kept out of mar
ket. and the sales circumscribed to those only who had
proved its worth, and known Us value. It had reached
the ears of many, nevertheless, as those perrons w ho had
been healed of sore diseases, and saved from death, pm* i
clam ed as excellence and wonderful
HEALING POWER.
Knowing, many years ago. that lie had. by his skill, J
science and experience, devised an article which would lie :
of incalculable advantage to mankind when the means
would he furnished to bring it into universal notice, when j
Us inestimable virtues would l*e known and appreciated.
This time has come, the means arc supplied ; this
GLAND AND UNEQUALLED PREPARATION
is manufactured on the largest scale, and is called for
throughout the length and breadth of the land, especially
as it is found incapatde of degeneration or deterioration.
Unlike young S. P Townsend’s, it improves with age. and
never changes, blit for the better: because it is prepared on
scientific principles by a scientific man. The hiyhesl knowl
edge < f Chem’.'try. and the l atest discoveries of the rut,
have nil 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
ponies, and some properties which are inert or useless, and
others, which it retained in preparing it for use. produce
fermentation and acid, which is injurious to the system.
Bonie of the pro|>erties of Sarsaparilla nre so volatile, that
they entirely evaporate and nre lost in '.he preparation, if
they are not preserved by a scientific process, known only
to those experienced in its manufacture. Moreover, these
volatile principles, which fly off in vapor, or as an exhala
tion. under hunt, are the very essential medical properties
of the root, which give to it all its value.
Any person can boil or stew the root till they get a nark
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 with soar molasses,
and then call it •• SARSAPARILLA EXTKACT or SY
RUP.” Rut 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, everything capable of
becoming acid or of fermentation, is extracted and rejected ;
then every particle of medical virtue is secured in ;t 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 jiowerliil agent in the
Cure of innumerable diseases.
Hence the reason why we hear commendations on every
side In its favor by men. women, and children. We find it
doing wonders in the cure of

rrUJE following communication appeared in

plete with interest to all similarly afflicted. Mr.
Smith is a printer by profession, and is employ
ed in that office—he relates his experience, which
after all is the best eriterion by which to judge
of the value of remedies. Advertisements and
high sounding statements may be set forth, and
thus give an ephemeral character and existence
to remedies, which when judged by this test,
lose ell their value, ami become defunct; not so,
however, with those which have thus been test
ed, and have passed through the ordeal ; for of
them, we state tehut has occurred, and from that
deduce what may bo expected. But to the com
munication, it will speak for itself.

S. J. Roy, Editor Georgia Telegraph :
|)us 81n : —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 sue oss
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
lv save their health but their money also, and at
tho same lime encourage the efforts of those who
would give character und consequence to tills
section of the Union. I 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 diarrhaer, and
a great part of the time confined to my bed, and
so debilitated generally, that 1 could do but lit
tle in the way of business I thus continued
for ovor five years, making every effort during
that time to regain my health. I first applied to
the physcians of Savannah, where I then resided,
but their efforts failed to relieve mo. I then
tried Houck’s Panacea for a long time—then
VV ■star's Balsam of Wild Cherry, &c., till I had
spent hundreds of dollars in their purchase, and
still found myself as bad off as before. I then
applied to your townsman, Dr. M. S. Thomson,
who 1 am happy to say, after treating my case
some 6 or 7 months, restored me to sound, and
l believe to permanent health, for I am now and
have been for the last 18 months in the enjoy
ment of uninterrupted health. This is my ex
perience, and I doubt not you will agree with
ine in the opinion, that I have good reasons for
recommending the Doctor and his remedies in
eases of this kind, far above the most eminent
physicians whoso skill I had tested, and the far
I famed and much boasted balsams and panaceas
| with which I had been dosed. Let others do
1 likewise, if they would he cured, and that they
j may not perish for lack of knowledge, I here
! by request that you will give publicity to my
statement in your widely circulating sheet, and
much oblige yours, respectfully,
JOHN H. SMITH.

SINCE the death ofthe projector of this popu
lar Magazine, tho 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.
The New Volume,to be commenced on the
firs: of January, 1850, will comprise many im
portant improvements, which, it is bclievid,
will render the Magazine one ofihebesl Period
icals published in the country, as it ertainK is
the cheapest Among these improvemorils will
be new and beautiful type, fine calendered pa
per, a higher order of illustrations than those
heretofore given, and contributions from some of
tlie ablest writers in America. It is the aim of
the Proprietor to publish a popular Magazine,
adapted to the wants of all classes of leading
people in the Republic, which shall bo hotli in
structive and amusing ; and free alike from tho
grogsness 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 by tho best Artists ; Portraits of re
markable Persons, and Views of remarkable
Places, illustrated by pen und pencil. A strict
revision will be exercised that no improper arti
cle, or word, shall ever bo admitted, so that it
may be safely taken by persong ofthe utmost re
finement, and read at the fire-side for the amuse
ment or instruction of the family circle.
The Review department ofthe Magazine will
contain brief critical notices ofall the new pub
licaiions of the day, and will form a complete
chronicle of current literature.
From the business and literary connexions al
ready estublishad, 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 the Mag
azine tho lending 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 tho 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 xiie superior! y 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 Chari.es F. Briggs,
w ho has been connected with it from tho begin
ning. The “ Pulpit Portraits," a series of Bio
graphical Sketches,accompanied b> well engrav
ed Portraits of eminent Divines of the American
Churches, which have formed a conspicuous fea
ture of “HOLDEN,” tvil ■ be continued in the
succeeding Volumes of the Magazine, nnd 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 tho 15tli
of December. Each number will consist of 61
pages, and numerous Engravings. The Terms
aro One Dollar a Year in adrancc— the Magazine
will he plainly and carefully directed and sent
by maii at the risk of the subscriber. As each
number w ill 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 ns evidence of
tho 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 hound Volumes in cloth gilt
edge, from July to December Inclusive, at $1
each.
Letters must he addressed to “Holden’s Dol
lar Magazine, No. 10!) Nassau Street, New
York, ’ and post-paid in all cases.
WM. H DIETZ, Proprietor.
THE GLOBE,
A Congressional , Agricultural und Literary
Newspaper.
THE approach of Congress calls out the An
l nual Prospectus of the Globe: Establish
ment.
The time is full of interest. The coming in
ofa new Administration—tho consequent broach
ing of anew poiicy touching 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 objects
associated with it—the impending difficulty i n
our relations with France,und 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.
preaching Session will probably continue till late
in the summer of 1850. The debates, from the
agitation of so many questions of vitnl 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 from the Capitol to the re
motest parts of the Union, forms a public opin
ion which reacts upon Congress and controls jta
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 Globs. Press has already enlisted the
ablest Reporters yet known to Congress ; its
materials und 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 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
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 ofthe daily sheets issued, as shall contri
bute to make the reports that fill them. Tho
undersigned has ventured on the preparation he
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 as Congressional docu
ments in their several districts. This will ena
ble the Publisher to bear the charge of reporting,
and it will givo 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 exchsive
attention to the Congressional Department.
J. C. Pickett will conduct the Miscellaneous
Department of the Newspaper. F. P. Biair
retires from both concerns, w ith prayers for their
permanent usefulness and prosperity.
The Globe will be published daily dnringthe
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.
Tito Weekly Globe will contain Agricultural
and miscellaneous articles ; and will occasion
ally give debates of such 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.
Tho Congressional Globe will embody, as it
has dono for the last sixteen years, Congression
al piocecdings nnd debates exclusively.
The Appendix will embrace the revised
speeches separately, and the messages of lhi»
President ofthe United States, and tire reports
ofthe Heads ofthe Executive Departments.
The Congressional Globe and Appendix will
bo published as fast as the proceedings of Con
gress will make a number Subscriber* may ex
pect one number of each a w eek during i he first
four weeks ofa 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
nnd Appendix will be sunt to subscribers soon
after Congress adjourns.
Nothing ofa political party aspect will appear
in the Globe save that which w ill be found in
the Congressiohal reports. A paper assuming
to bo an impaitial vehicle for all sides, cannot
maintain its character if tho editorial columns
reflect a party hue.
