Jl o c t r w . [for the southern tribuneJ TO A MOCSTAIN POETESS. IT DUPRE POSTELL. Were wishes wings to bear me. Up to where thou art, Oft, oft would I be near Thee, And strive to win thy heart Distance should no more vex me— As now, from day to day, When I in grief remember, How far thou art away. Ive seen the copies of thy songs , I've read them near the sea ; And as the thirsting trav’ler longs For streams, I've long'd for Thee ; Long'd to be near Thee, in the eve Os ev’ry quiet day ; And breathless listen, as you weave Your spirit winning lay. Could I but train a mocking bird, To go, and conic again, I'd send it, —daily send it, To bring to me thy strain : 'Twould soon mcthiiiks, feel pride mid joy To fly to where thou art ; To learn, and then repeat to me, The echo of thy heart. I would not cage that precious bird ; Methinks ’twould pine and Hie, If only once thy voice it heard, And then forbid to fly ! I’d teach it by caresses How dear it was to me, For going, and returning, And telling me of Thee. Sweet Songstress of the mountain, — My dreams are blest by Thee ! In dreams of night; in dreams of day, Thy form 1 often see ! I see thy face ; I hear thy voice ; I listen to thy lay ; But ah ! how can my heart rejoice ? 1 am too far away. Agricultural. From the American Agriculturist. ISeniarks on Braining. We all well know that wheat and other grains as well as grasses, are never fully developed, nor produce good seed, when roots are soaked in moisture. No man ev er raised good wheat from a wet or moist subsoil. Now, many farms of this coun try, though at times during the summer they apperdry, and crack open on the sur face, are not in fact dry farms. On the contrary, for nine months out of twelve, they are moist or wet; and we need no better evidence of that fact, than the annu al freezing out of the plant, and consequent poverty of many crops. Need we say more to convince you of the necesity for draining your farms 1 Now comes the question. How is this great good tobeacomplished? What is the best method ? What will it cost? And above all, what will it pay l These en quires we will endeavor to meet. The statements, though brief, will doubtless lead you to renewed inquiries, and active search for imformation. The inquiry, How is this great good to be accomplishrd ? What is the best meth od ? will lead me to speak of various proha ble localities, each of which needs a differ ent treatment. Thus we have on sever al of our farms portions that may he called bogs, being generally too wet to sustain the weight of a man, and where the water seems to rise from below. These lands are very retentive of moisture, acting like a sponge; but when drained, are often iound to he very fertile and productive.— To drain lands of this description, the first important step is, to ascertain the nature of the strata of the earth, which the near est high grounds may possess, in order to know whether the main supply of water does or does not flow from them. In al most all cases, such is the case, and leads us at once to cut a drain or ditch,just above the level of the bog on the higher ground, and so deep so as intercept tho waters as they descend, and by means of this ditch to lead them off toward the lowest point, thus arresting the supply of water, collect ing into one channel, and cutting off from its usual ramifications through the bog.— In time, the bog will have become so firm as to be traversed readily, though it re mains wet and marshy. Smaller open drains or ditches, should now be dug from the lowest point of the bog, to he connect ed with the deeper and larger ditch on the higher around, the connection to be made at the greatest depression of the latter*— Smaller lateral ditches may now be cut, leading into the main ; and thus the bog will be drained and rendered fit for culti vation. Ahcif.ht Relic. —Jesse M. Eyre,of Chester Borough, in digging a well on the west side of Chester Creek, near the site of the house of Rob ert Wade, visited by William Penn on his first landing, in Iti'itJ, came directly on the well which supplied water to the above named resident.— About six incites below the surface was found the old well, neatly walled, and on clearing it out, the well-bucket was found at the bottom. It had been closed a hundred years. ILT The chamois and ibex arc found on the Alps as high as 0,000 feet.

PAI/'i ION EXTRA A man by the name of C/.A PP ha* aagayed with a young man of the name of 8. !*. Townsend, and nses hit name to put up a Sarsaparilla, w hieh they call Dr. Town •end'* Sarsaparilla, denominating it U FXLUXE. Original, etc. This Townsend is no doctor, and never was; bat was formerly a worker on rairroads. canals, and the like. Yethe assumes the title of Dr., for the purpose of gaining credit for : what he is not. This is to caution the public not to be | deceived, and purchase none hut the OEXUIXMS ORIOI XAL or.I) Dr. Jacob Townsend's Sarsaparilla, having on It the Old Dr's likeness, his family coat of arms, and hi* signature across the coat of amis. Principal Office, 102 Xassau-st., Xew fork Cifgr. OLD’m. JACOB 'l*^^: THE ORIGINAL DISCOVERER OF THE (ienuiue Townsend Sarsaparilla. Old Dr. Townsend is now about TO years of ace, and lias long been known as the AUTHOR and DISCOVF.RF.iI of the G ENU INF ORIGINAL “ TO HNS END SAR SAVA ML LA. *' Being poor, he was compelled to limit its manufactire, by which means 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 the ears of many, nevertheless, as those persons who had been lulled of sore diseases, anil saved from death, pro claimed its excellence and wonderful HEALING POWER. Knowing, many years afro, that he had, bv his skill, science am! experience, devised an article which would be of incalculable .advantage to mankind when the means would be furnished to bring it into universal notice, when its inestimable virtues would be known and appreciated. This time has come, the means arc supplied ; this GRAND 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 incapable of degeneration or deterioration. Unlike young S. I’ Townsend's, it improves with age, and never changes, but 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 pcriies, anil some properties which are inert or useless, and others, which if retained in preparing it for use, produce fermentation and acid , which is injurious to tho system, dome of the properties of Sarsa|»ariila are so volatile, that they entirely evaporate and arc lost in .he preparation, if they are not preserved by a scientific process , known only to those t xjierienced in its manufacture. Moreover, these volatile principles, which fly orf' in vapor, or as an exhala tion. under heat, are the very essential medical properties -if the root, w hich give to it all its value. Any person can boil or stew' the root till they get a dark 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 w ith sour molasses, ind then call it “ SAKS AT A RILL A EXTRACT or SY HUP.” 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 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 we hear commendations on every side 111 its favor by men, women, and children. VYe find it doins wonders in the cure of COXSUMITIVX, IJYSPF.PStA, and 1.1FF.11 COM PI.AIXT, and in RHEUMATISM, SCROFULA, Pl/.FS, COS’TJFFXFSS, nil CUTAXEOUS FItUP Tit XS. PIMPLES, ISLOCTHFS, and all affections arising from IMPURITY OF TIIE BLOOD. It possesses a marvellous efficacy in all 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 and hot flashes over the body. It has not its equal in Colds and Coughs ; and promotes easy expectoration and gentle perspiration, relaxing stricture of the lungs, throat, and every other part. Rut in nothing is its excellence more manifestly seen and acknowledged than in all kinds and stages of FEMALE COMPLAINTS. It w orks wonders in cases of Fluor Aldus or Whites, Fall ing of the IFomb, Obstructed, Suppressed, nt Painful Menses, Irregularity of the menstrual periods, and the like; and is as effectual in curing all the forms of Kidney Disease s. Ry removing obstructions, and regulating the general system, it gives tone and strength to the whole body, and thus cures all forms of Nervous diseases and debility, and thus prevents or relieves a great variety of other mala dies, as Spinal irritation, Neuralgia, St. Titus' Dance. Swooning, Epileptic Fits, Convulsions, Ac. It cleanses the blood, excites the liver to healthy action, tones tlie stomach, and gives good digestion, relieves the bowels of torpor and constipation, allays inflammation, ,3itrifles the skin, equalises the circulation of the blood, producing gentle warmth equally all over the body, and the insensible perspiration; relaxes all strictures and tight ness, removes all obstructions, and invigorates the entire nervous system. Is not this then The medicine you pre-eminently need ? Rut can any of these things be said of S. I*. Townsend’s inferior article I This young man’s liquid is not to be COMPARED WI TH THE OLD DR’S, because of one GRAND FACT, that the one is I.NCAPA RLE of DETERIORATION, and NEVER SPOILS, while the other DOES ; souring, fermenting, and blowing the bottles containing it into fragments ; the sour, acid liquid exploding, and damaging other goods ! Must not this horri ble compound be poisonous to the system?- What! put acid into a system already diseased with acid! VV’hat causes Dys{»epsia but acid ? Do we not all know that when food sours in our stomachs, w hat mischiefs it produces ? flatu lence, heartburn, palpitation of the heart, liver complaint, diarrheea. dysentery, colic, and corruption of the bioodl What is Scrofula but an acid humor in the body 1 What produces all the humors which bring on Eruptions of the Skin, t?cald Head, Salt Rheum, Erysipelas, White Swell lugs, l ever Sores, and all ulcerations internal and external? It is nothing under heaven, but an acid substance, which sours, and thus spoils ail the tluids of the body, more or .ess. What causes Rheumatism but a sour or acid fluid which insinuates itself between the joints and elsewhere, irritating and inflaming the delicate tissues upon which it acts? So of nervous diseases, of impurity of the blood, oi deranged circulations, and nearly all the ailments which afflict human nature. Now is it not horrible to make and sell, and infinitely worse to use this auLKUNLi, FERMENTING, ACID “ COM POUND” OF 8. P. TOWNSEND, in*l vet he would fain have it Understood that Old Dr. Jacob I'ownsend’s Genuine Original Sarsaparilla, is an IMITA I'D >.N of his inferior preparation !! Heaven forbid that vve should deal in an article which weald bear the most distant resemblance to S. P. Town* •end’s article! and which should bring down upon the Old Dr. such a mountain load of complaints and criminations from Agents w ho have sold, and purchasers who have used S. I*. Townsend’s FERM K.NT ING COMPOUND. We wish it understood, because it is the absolute truth, that S. P. Townsend's article and Old Dr. Jacob Town send’s Sarsaparilla are heaven-wide apart, and infinitely dis similar ; that they arc unlike in every particular, having not one single thing in common. As S. P. 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. u hat guarantiee can the public have that they are re ceiving a genuine scientilic medicine, containing all the \ irtues of the articles used in preparing it. and which are in capable of changes winch might render them the AGENTS of Disease instead of health. Rut what else should be 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 common decent meal. How much more important is it that the (lersons who manufacture medicine, designed for WEAK stomachs and exfekbx.ed systems, should know well the medical properties of plants, the W«st manner of securing and concentrating their healing virtues, also an extensive knowledge of the various diseases which a fleet the human system, aud how to adapt remedies lo these diseases! It is to arre t frauds upon the unfortunate, to pour balm into wounded humanity, to kindle hope in the des|tairing bosom, to restore health and bloom, ami vigor into the rcMsiied and broken, and to banish infirmity that OLD DR. J A COR TOWNSEND has SOUGHT and FOUND the op purtunity and moans to bring his Grand Universal Concentrated ltemedy within the reach, and to the knowledge ofall who need it, that they may learn ami know, by joyful experience, its Transcendent Power to Ileal.

Mr. I Smith is a printer by profession, and is c.mploy ! cd in that office—he relates his experience, which after all is the best criterion by which to judge of the value of remedies.

But to the com munication, it will speak for itself. Macon, Jan. 14, 1850. S. J. Ray, Editor Georgia Telegraph : Dear Sir :—While so many certificates of individuals living oil' at great distances are ap pearing in the papers commendatory of Bal sams, Syrups, Fills 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 time 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 hcernorrhago or spitting of blood, with severe and most harrassing and distressing cough, cold sweats of nights, with a wasting diarrluer, 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. I first applied to thephyscians ofSavannah, where I then resided, but their efforts failed to relieve me. I then tried Houck’s Panacea for a long time—then Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry, &.C., till I had spent hundreds of dollars in their purchase, and still found myself as bad oft' as before. 1 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 1 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 me in the opinion, that I have good reasons for recommending the Doctor and It is remedies in cases of this kind, far above the most eminent physicians whose skill 1 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, anil that they tnay not perish for lack of knowledge, 1 here by request that you will give publicity to tr.y statement in your widely circulating sheet, and much oblige yours, respectfully, JOHN 11. SMITH.

Thomson, Dear Sir .-—1 hope you will excuse n.e for not writing to you sooner. I have not forgot you, neither will 1 forget to pay you when 1 sell my cotton. I am much gratified in being able to announce that my son has got almost entirely well, so much so, that all those symptoms of disease have left him, but the enlargement of the spleen which has not entirely gone. To look at his situation eight months buck, and to look at hint now, it seems almost as one risen from the dead. I say to you, there is no more healthy looking youth in all this county, indeed his whole sys tem is regular and easy. God knows how long lie will remain so, but I hope he will to the end of life. lie has not taken any medicine for the last four months, yet he is thirty pounds heaver than before that time. I had applied to Physi cians, of both the Mineral and Botanic Schools, of eminent genera! qualifications, hut all to no benefit, but thanks to God, and gratitude to you for his restoration.

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. 10!) 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 bclievt and, will render the Magazine one ofthebest Period icals published in tho country, as it certainly is the cheapest. Among these improvements will be now 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 tree alike front 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 ofOriginal Drawings engrav ed on wood by the best Artists ; Portraits of re markable Persons, and Views of remarkable Places, illustrated 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 he safely taken by persons of the utmost re finement, and read at the fire-side for the amuse ment or instruction of the family circle. The Review department of the Magazine will contain brief critical notices ofall the new pub lications of the day, and will form a complete chronicle of current literature. From the business and literary connexions al ready cstablisltad, the best assistance that the country can afford will be secured for completing the plans of the publisher, and nothing will he 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 diiily 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 he under the Editorial charge and supervision of Charles F. Briggs, who has been connected with it from 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 he 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 tho first of January next, hut will he issued on tho 15th of December. Each number will consist of G 4 pages, and numerous Engravings. The Terms are One Dollar a Year in advance —the Magazine will he plainly and carefully directed and sent by mail at the risk of the subscriber. As each number will 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 oftlie Propriclor, provided a description ofthe bills are taken, and enclosed in the presence of the Postmaster us evidence of the fact.

THE GLOBE, A Congressional, Agricultural and Literary Newspaper. » THE approach of Congress calls out the An I. nual Prospectus of the Globe Establish ment. The time is full of interest. The coming j n ofa new Administration—the consequent broach ing ofa new poiicy touching the internal con cerns oftlie country—the new and most impor taut issues arising from the late vast accession to the public domain, and the great national objects associated with it—the impending difficulty our relations with France,and 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 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. 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 its decisions. To bccomea 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 Globe Press* has already enlisted Uv* ablest Reporters yet known to Congress ; its materials and machinery are of the best sort; and the exclusive devotion of the individual who for so many years lias made it his study to embo dy and publish the labors of Congress, gives rea son to hope that an advance will he 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 oftlie 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 oftlie daily sheets issued,as shall contri bute to make the'reports that fill them. The undersigned has ventured onthe 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 as 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 tho system permanent. John (,’. Rives having purchased the interrst of F. P. Bi.air in Jackson Hall—the printing office machinery and material becomes the sole proprietor thereof, and will give his cxclt give attention to the Congressional Department. 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 he published daily duringthe session of Congress, and Weekly the remainder of the year, and will undergo distribution in the form ofa Weekly Globe, a Congressional Globe and an Appendix. The W eckly Globe will contain Agricultural and miscellaneous articles ; and will occasion ally give debates of such importance as command universal interest. The price of the Weekly Globe is reduced to One Dollar, with a view to obtain a more gene ral circulation. Subscribets who have hitherto paid !j?2 per annum, will he charged only .<1 al ter the expiration of the first year. The Congressional Globe will embody, as it has done for the last sixteen years, Congression al proceedings and debates exclusively. The Appendix will embrace the revised speeches separately, and the messages of ilia President oftlie United States, and the reports oftlie Heads ofthe Executive Departments. The Congressional Globe and Appendix will he published as fast as the proceedings of Con gress will make a number Subscribers may ex pert one number of each a week during the 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 and Appendix will he sent to subscribers soon after Congress adjourns. Nothing <if a political parly aspect will appear in the Globe save that which will he found in the Congressiohal reports. A paper assuming to he an impntliui vehicle for all sides, cannot maintain its character if tho editorial columns reflect a party hue.
