%) o c t r 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! ■—' j'j 1 ■.u«iß!Hj SI q r f cultural. From the, Columbus Enquirer Gardening for the .Sonlit. 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.

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 CONSUMPTION ; DYSPEPSIA, and lAVF.It COM PLAINT, and in RHEUMATISM, SCROFULA . PILES, CO Sf I TEN ESS, all CUTANEOUS ERUP TIONS, PIMPLES, RLOCTIIES. and ail utfeclious arising from IMPURITY OF THE BLOOD.

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. Macox, Jan. 14, 1850. 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.

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.
