POMEGRANATE COTTON.
TWO years’cxpcl'icnec with this variety o
Cotton has proved it to he the most produc
tive Cotton grown in this section of countrv, as is
s iown by the report of Gen. Hendrick, Col. Jones 1 ,
Col. Watters and others, who have planted this
Cotton the present year. It should he planted one
fourth thicker than other Cotton, both in the Rows
nnd Drills, the R iws two-ind-a-half, and not over
three feet oil the best land. It should be topped
about the last of July.

We planted Mr Dickson’s Pomegranate Cotton
this year, side hy side with ihe common Colton on
Ihesjinetlay—no difference in the land or culti
vation. The Pomegranate produced, fully, onc
thtrd the most, and bolls larger, and staple finer

This will certify that I planted about twelve
acres of Mr. Dickson’s Pomegranate Cotton this
year, from which 1 shall gather nearly two thou
sand pounds seed Cotton peracrcjand would have
gathered over that amount-hut for the injury re
ceived hy rains and the worm. The cotton was
planted one month later tlian my other cotton. I
pronounce it a superior cotton, producing about
one-third more than our common cotton.

I have planted Mr. Diekson’s Pomegranate cot
ton the last two years. It matures earlier than
anv cotton 1 ever planted. I am satisfied it
will produce about one-third more than the com
mon cotton on the same soil. D. E. Strong.
Covington, Ga. Nov. 19, 185*2.
I plant cotton ia V\ yne county, Kentucky, for
spinning use only. I was at this place last winter,
and was induced to take home a few of Mr. Dick
son’s Pomegranate Colton seed. 1 planted them
side by side with my other cotton, the land the
same, and tended alike; the Pomegranate pro
duced lolly one-third the most, and made over one
thousand pounds seed cotton per acre. My spin
ners say the lint is superior to any cotton they ever
spun. Canon Wirsham.

PROSPECTUS OP
THE CORNER STOWE.
WE intend to publish in the city of Columbus,
Ga.a paper under tbe title of “The Cor
ner Stone.” We shall not attempt to foreshad
ow our future course, by saying that ve shall ad
here to and advocate the “great principles” ot this
or that “great party,” for the reason that we
know no party*, to whose principles, as exemplifi
ed in practice, we can thus commit ourselves.
With some difference in creeds and professions,
the two great National parties agree in one lead
ng object, which is to do whatever maybe ne
cessary to increase the amount of party spoils,
which are gathered mainly from the South and
distributed almost entirely at the North. Wc do
not belong to cither of them.
Believing the General Government to he corrupt
in all its parts, -holding lhal il belongs to, und it
and w ill be administered for the benefit of the
North alone—that it is an engine, by which the
power and resources of the South are wielded to
her injury—t hat in all respects and under all cir
cumstances, Hie political connection between the
two sections is productive of evil to flic South, wc
shall advocate its dissolution.
As to State politics, il there he any.party which
has any, wc arc ignorant of it. So entirely isi
everything absorbed, in the effort to sustain a” na
tioflil organization, that the discussion of princi
ple and measures, involving the rights and inter
ests of the people, is often deprecated and avoided,
fest the party may be thereby injured; as if the
invasion, of the rights ol a citizen, hy State legis
lation were not as fatal and as much to be guarded
against, as the exercise of an undelegated power
by Congress.
In what wc shall choose to consider and to treat
as State politics, wc shall find much to discuss—
for there is much that is wrong somevv lict.
Wc boast that we have the best Government rih
earth, and that wc live in the full blaze of the light
of Christianity, yet we have daily, the complaint,
I ha? over all the land, crime and degradation,
and misery arc rncrcasing, with appalling rapid
ly- Such are not the legitimate fruils of a pure
Christianity or of a good and wise government.
Wc shall consider all things connected with the
rights and interest of the pi-oplc, proper subjects
for discussion; our object will be to ami at (lie truth;
and when in our opinion, wc shall have found it,
we shall present il to our readers as it presents
itself to us.

ed weekly on a large sheet, at SI per annum, in
variably in advance. No man will be entered up
on our list until the money is paid. Any person
who will ?end us five subscribers will receive a
copy for his trouble. The first number will he

that there is mors Sarsaparilla in one liotile ol Dr.

is generally made.
That it might be more particularly adapted lo
professional use, nothing but Ihe pure Sarsnn&rilla
has been used, that for different* diseases, pliys

CONSUMPTION.
THE GREAT
COUGH REMEDY!
RE \DI£R! have you a Cough, w hich you are
neglecting, under the idea that it is only u
common cold, and that it w ilI soon “wear itself
out?” Let a iriend tell you, in all kindness, what
w ill soon he the prolxiblc result.
In a short time, if you continue to neglect your
self, you w ill begin to feci a seiisc of tightness and
| oppression across the chest, accompanied with
■ frequent sharp dattirig pains. Then a drv, hack
ing Cough, will set in, and when you raise any
thing it will be a thick and yeltow'ish, or white
frothy matter, streaked, perhaps, with blood. If
£,ll still take no medicine, these unpleasant syiap
willtoms increase, and you will soon have Hec
tic Fever, Cold Chilis, Night Sweats, Copi
ous Expectoration, and then Great Prostra
tion If you still ncg'ecl yourself, a few week*
or mouths w ill sec you consigned to the grave,
leaving your friends to mourn how rapidly CUN*
SUMPTION did ils work, and hurried you away.
Friend! have you lie cause to he alarmed? Lithe
above sketch you may see as in a glas, how every
case ol the Consumplion progresses, until more or
less rapidity, lo a fatal termination. Os all the
Thousands and Mtl ious whom This great Destroy
er has gathered to the tomb, every single case be
gan w ith a Cold! If this hud been attended to,
ail might have been well; hut, being neglected,
under the lata! delusion that it would ‘‘wear itseli
off,” it transferred its deadly action to tile sub
stance of the Lungs, exciting there the formal ion
of tubercles Another, and another cold, added
fuel to the Hone, until these lubeiclcs began to
so ’tcn an I snppurute, leaving by their ulccra'inn,
great cavities in the Lungs. At this c isis, the
disease is very difficult ofeure, and oftentimes sets
at defiance all human means.
In the lattei or worst stage, this medicine will
oftentimes arrest thediscase, or check its progress,
and will always make the patient moie comforta
ble, and prolong Ins life, ami is therefore worthy of
a trial; —but ii its incipient or forming periods

I lave you delicate, weakly children, who are ol

not ihat, before morning, Croup may sei in, and
ere you can get a Physician, your dear child may
he beyond the reach of help. We beseech you
therefore, as you value the lives of your children,
keep this medicine by you in the house, and when
your little ones take cold and commence coughing,
g.ve and lo tiioui at once, and rest not until the cough
is subdued. \Ve coilscienlio l-ly aver, after the

but without obtaining relief. At length I used
your Plaster, and am now by ils good effects en

CRYSTAL PALACE.
Circular to American Producers, from the
Association for the Exhibition of the In
dustry of all Nations , Office No 53,
Broadway , New York, Gth Dec. 1852.
I Address you, on behalf of the Asso
ciation for the Exhibition of the In
dustry of all Nations, to invite your co
operation in the general objects of the
enterprise. The building intended for
the purposes of the exhibition, construct
ed entiiely of iron and glass, will be, it
is believed, the largest and most beautiful
edifice in the country. It covers, on the
ground floor, two and a-half acres, and,
with the galleries, the whole space is four
acres. ‘J he mason-work is entirely com
pleted. The main part of the iron work
is contracted for, a large pait of the cast
ings are delivered on the ground, and tho
construction issleadily going on. We in
tend, as we have already stated to the
public, that the exhibition shall be open
ed on the second of May, 1853. You
are thus offered an unequaled opportuni
ty of exhibiting, to the vast population of
this country, such of tour productions a.r
you send us, free of all charge of every
kind whatever, from, the time that they
are delivered into our custody until with
drawn. The Association has already an
nounced that their objects are limited ex
clusively to exhibition. They have no
interest whatever, direct or indirect, in
thrfinal disposition to be made of any ar
ticle that may he displayed. You are, -
no doubt, aware that we have received
all the assistance from the public
ities that we have desired.* The city ha if
given us the lease of Reservoir-square?
ihatState has granted us a chatter,
the Federal authorities have engaget?
the the building shall he made a Bbfttlei?
Warehouse for the purpose of receiving
foreign articles without paying duty
so long as they remain in it. W(S
have the strongest assurances of support
from the Representatives here of the prin
cipal Foreign Countries. The late la
mented Mr. Webster, on the 12. h Octo
ber, issued a private circular from the*
Department of State, to the Representa
lives of this Government at the Couits of
the Principal European Powers, request
ing their assistance in the objects of the
undertaking, and we are receiving daily
confirmation of the general interest tha*
the subject is exciting among the manu
facturers of Europe. A large number of
articles of high value is alteady secured,
and we have no doubt, w hatever, that
we shall have a very extensive represen
tation of all the branches of foreign indus
try. The measuies we have adopted
will thus secure two great ohjccls we
have desired to attain, namely: the elec
tion of a building which will be a great
architectural ornament to our city, and
the exhibition, in that building, of the
products of the Industry of the Old
World *, still we shall full far short of
our mark if we do r.ot equally succeed in
obtaining the fullest and most extensive
co-operation of American Industry Our
Exhibition would he extremely defective
—it would he very inferior, both in in
terest and in utility, to what we mean to
make it—it the gieat resources of the
people of our own country were not fellv
displayed in it. We believe it unneces
sary to urge upon you the arguments on
this subject, which w e are sure w ill pre
sent themselves to the mind of every in
telligent American producer. Your ow t>
position in the world ot American Indus
try, yoor own interest, and what ia due
to an enterprise devised and meant to
he carJied out with no narrow views, hut
on a large scale of public usefulness—all
j. entitle us to entertain the lullest convic
tion that you will send us some of the
, choicest specimens of your skill, and that
you will urge your liiends to do the
same, in making this application, we
desire to have it understood, that we in
tend to call forth a complete lepresenta
tion of all the tescutces ot the country,
as well of Kaw Materials as of Manu
factured Articles- We hope to see abun
dant specimens of the Ceteal products of
the Northern and Western States, of the
Colton aud Sugar of the Souih, as well
as of all the other great agricultural sta
ples ot the country. Os similar import
ance are the Mineral treasures of our
continent. We are particularly desirous
that our building should contain a com
plete collection of the various Ores w hich
the active industry of our people is daily
bringing lo light, of the Metals produced
from them in their various stages of de
velopment, amt also of allother Minerals.
1 iiis would include as well Coal, Gran
ite, and other similar substances, as those
chemical products mote especially used
in the Arts. The Ores should be accom
panied by the Hocks in which they are
found, and, it possible, by plans anu sec
tions ol the measures in winch they lie.
it would also be of great interest to ex
hibit, either by models or Descriptive
Dra w ings, the different processes employ
ed in the reduction of the Ores and the
manufacture of the Metals. You will
readily see the importance and value of
a collection of this kind ; and if the speci
mens are forwarded to us, w e shall take
such measuies for their classification and
arrangement, as will best subsetve the
objects of the Exhibition, and, at the
same time add to the information and ex
perience of our people. We have, here-
tofore, announced that Paintings in
Frames will he exhibited; and we are
very desirous that the Sculpture of the
country may be fully represented. If our
wishes in these respects are answered,-
our building will furnish a complete il
lustration ot the National Resources, the
Art and the industry of our People, aud
the manifestation thus made, will, we are
convinced, surprise even those most con
versant with ttie progress of the Kepub
c. We inclose our general Circular,
and also a form of Application for Space,
lo which we beg your attention. Copies
of these, or of this letter, if you desire
them, lo send to your friends or cones*
pendents, can be had at this office,, in
order thal we may know on what extent
of co-operation we may depend, the la
yer of a reply on or beiore the 15th day
of January is asked. Please address it
