This will certify that I planted about twelve
acres of Mr. DicKson’s Pomegranate Cotton this
year, from which I shall gather nearly two thou
sand pounds seed Cotton perlacre, ami would have
gathered* over thut amount hut for the injury re
ceived by rains and the worm. The OotTon was

I have planted Mr. Dickson’s Pomegranate cot

PROSPECTUS OF
THIS CORNER STONE.
WE intend to publish in the city of Columbus,
Ga.a paper under the title of “The Cor
ker Stone.” We shall not attempt to foreshad
ow ucr future course, by saying that ve shall ad
here to and advocate the “great principles” of this
or that “great parly,” for the reason that we
know no party, to whose principles, as exemplifi
ed in pructiee, we can thus commit ourselves.
Willi some difference in creeds and professions,
the two gical National parties agree in one lead
ing object, which is to do whatever maybe ne
cesrary to increase the amount of party spoils,
which arc gathered mainly from the South and
distributed almost entirely at the North. We do
not belong to either of them.
Believing the General Government to he corrupt
in all its parts, —holding that it belongs to, and is
and will be administered lor the benefit of the
North alone—that it is an engine, by which the
power and resources of the South arc wielded to
her injury—thatinall respects and under all cir
cumstances, the political connection between the
two sections is productive of evil to the youth, wc
shall advocate its dissolution.
As to State politics, it there be any party which
has any, w.; aro ignorant or it. So entirely] i
everything absorbed, in the effort lo sustain a na
tural! organizition, that the discussion o! princi
ple and measures, involving the rights and inter
ests of the people, is often deprecated and avoided,
lest the party mty be thereby injured; as if the
invasion, of the rights ol a citizen, by Slate legis
lation were not as fatal and as much to be guarded
against, as the exercise of an uodelcgutcd power
hy Congress.
Li what wc shall choose to consider and to trea
a* Stale politics, wc shall fi.id much to discuss—
for there is much that is wrong some wlicc.
We boast that we have the best Government on
earth, sod that we live in the full blaze ol (he light
of Christianity, yet we have daily, tin; complaint,
that over all the land, crime and degradation,
and misery are increasing, with appallin'* rapid
ity. Such arc not the legitimate fruits of P a pure
Christianity or of a good und wise government.
We shall consider all things connected with the
rights and interest of the people, proper subjects
forjdit cussion; our object will be to aim at the truth;
and when in our opinion, we shall have found it,
we shall present it to our readers as it presents
itself to us.

expressly tor the purpose. This arrangement will

tunity of commencing their subscription with the
beginning of the year.
iVIr. Willis will cmtinuc his usual editorial la
bors, writing on the pa sinotopics of interest,
as they occur. He will also give, *rom lime to
tune, passages from his Travels in the Tropics, anil
in the South, and West, willi pontons of which the
readeis of the Home Journal-are already familiar.
His entire time being dtroltil to the paper, the well
known variett and industry of Ins pen will be
seen in its columns ns before. Hut we have anew
feature to offer from the pen of Mr. Willis, and
one that w e believe (at this period of la le for
picturing! of real life ) will be pre-eminently attrac
tive. He proposes to give a series of sketches de
scriptive of
COUNTRY-LIFE WITHIN CITY-REACH
Our readers are acquainted with the one success
ful effort in this classical writing. Hi-“L-lters
from under a bridge-’ described mere country life, us
experienced in a remote retirement on Ihe busquc
hannuh. For the last year or two he Inis been ta
king advantage of the new faciitics given by im
provements in railroads and steamboats—uniting
the repose and beauty of rural life with the com
forts and advantages of easy access to the city. —
He finds much in this which is new. I: forms a
combination of the desirable qualities of the true
inodes of life, which he thinks well worth descri
bing and making familiar to the world. In addi
tion to the above,
A NEW NOVEL,
translated from the German by a graceful and
brilliant American author, emitted
in LD FLO \r EII s,
will adorn the columns of the forthcoming new
SERIES.
The Town, as heretofore, will be a lending to
pic: not its trifles, fashions, and amusements mere
ly, though these are noted with care. The week
ly chronicle of the Town, comprises notices, more
or less minute, according to eiicumstanccs, of the
important lectures, meetings, works ,far,
scheme* of improvement and benevolence, new
enterprise, discoveries and inventions, as well as
the popular entertainments.
’ Interesting to Ladies,” is the t.tle of one
department. Special pains are taken to select
j from the news and literature of the world, those
I tacts and ideas which are of peculiar importance
jto the Women of America. A fairer held tor their
j industry, and wider seopc for the exercise of iheir
genius, are among the necessities of the time to
which w e thail endeavor to attract public atten
tion.
From new works of interest, or from valuable
articles in the reviews and magazine*, libcal ex
tracts will be presented weekly.
To* Forkiax Papers will continue to be enre
illy examined, and everything of home interest
extracted, and arranged under the head ol “Read
ings in Foreign Journals.” American papers,
lor a similar purpose, will be diligently ransacked.
A large number of able and distinguished
persons arc accustomed to avail themselves ot (tie
columns of the Home Journal whenever they desire
to communicate with the public. These contri
butions are a valuable feature of the papt'r.
As the Home Journal is designed to be par ex
cellence a Family Paper, Hie c.itors keep m view
the tastes ol the younger members of families, and
endeavor to provide in each number, something
specially adapted to the likingot intelligent youth.
Upon party politics and sectarian dogmas the
Home Journal is silent; hut upon subjects which are
not in dispute between parties or sects, it endea
vors to advocate the side of humanity and justice;
and to keep its readers in mind, that it is not all of
ife lo get a living.
This copious, comprehensive and elegantly print
ed Family Newspaper is now acknowledged to
, be the indispensable drawing-room gazette of the
| country. A home is hardly complete we think we
: may safely venture to say, without the HOME
! JOURNAL, which is the chf.onici.e of all that

In a slmri lime, il you continue lo negbet your

CRYSTAL PALM
Circular to American Producers, from the
Association fir the Exhibition of the In
dustry of all Nations, Office No. 53,
llroadway, New York, 6lh Dec. 1852^
1 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 fir
the purposes of the exhibition, construct
ed entiicly 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. The mason-work is entirely com
pleted. The main part of the iron vvoik
i* contracted for, a large pait of the cast
ings are delivered on the ground, and the
construction is steadily going on. We in
tend, as we have already stated lo 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 jour productions as
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
r.terest whatever, direct or indirect, in
thfffinal disposition to he made of any ar
ticle that may he displayed. You are
no doubt, aware that we have received
all the assistance from the public author
ities that we have desired. The citv has
given'us the lease of Reservoir-square ;
thalState has granted us a charter, and
the Federal authorities have engaged
the the building shall be made a 13 .tided
Warehouse fur ;he purpose of receiving
foreign articles without paying duty
so long as they remain in it. He
have the strongest assurances of support
from the Representatives here of the prin
cipal Foreign Countries. Thu late la
mented Mr. Webster, on the 12;h Octo
ber, issued a private circular from the
Department of Slate, to the Repiesputa
lives of this Government at the Couits of
the Principal European Powers, reoues'.-
ing their assistance in the objects of the
undertaking, and we are receiving daily
confirmation of the general interest that
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, whatever, that
we shall have a very extensive represen
tation of all the branches of foreign indus
try. The measutes we have adopted
will thus secure two great objects we
have desired to attain, namely : the erec
lion of a building which will he a great
| architectural ornament to our city, and
the exhibition, in that building, of the
j products of the Industry of the Old
| World ; still we shall fall far short of
our mark if we do not equally succeed in
obtaining the fullest and most extensive
co-operation of American Industry Our
Exhibition would he extremely defective
it would be very inferior, both in in
terest and in utility, to wliat we mean to
make it—if the great resources of the
people of our own country were not fully
i displayed in it. We believe it unneces
[ sary to urge upon you the arguments on
I this subject, which w e are sure will pre
j sent themselves to the m*|nd Jif every in
; lelligent American produ|er Your own
! position in the woild of American Indus-.,
i try,yoor own interest, and w hat is ijArffll
I to an enterprise devised and meant 49
he carjied out with no narrow views*btori
on a large scale of public usfcfaS®e*s—all
entitle us to entertain the fullest c-on vie-
I tion that you will send us some %f the
j choicest specimens of your skill, and that
I you will urge your fiiends to do the
| same. In making this application-, we
I desire to have it understood, that we in
‘ tend to call forth a complete tepresenta
i tion of all the respuices of the countr”,
as well of Kavr Matetials as of Manu
factured Articles. We hope to see abun
dant specimens of the Ceteal products of
the Northern and Wtstern Stales, of the
Cotton and Sugar of the Si u'h. as well
as of all the other great agricultural sta
ples of the country.* Os similar imped
ance are the Mineral treasures of our
continent. We are particularly desirous
that our building should contain a com
plete collection oft he vatious Ores which
ihe active industry of our people is daily
bringing to light, of the Metals produced
from them in their various stages of de
velopment, and also of all other Minerals.
I his would include as well Coal, Grau
te, and other similar substances, as those
chemical product* more especially used
in the Arts. ihe Ores should he accom
panied by the Rocks in which they are
found, and, if possible, by plans anu sec
-1 lions of the measutes in which they lie.
I It would also be of great interest to ex
hibit, either by models or Descriptive
Drawings, 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 ate forwarded to us, we shall take
such measures for their classification and
ai rang err. etrt, as will best subserve 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 ve are
very desirous that the Sculpture of the
country may be fully represented. Jfuur
wishes tn these respect* are answered,
our building will furnish a complete il
lustration of the National Resources, lire
Art and the Industry of our People, and
the manifestation ihus made, will, we are
convinced, surprise even those most con
versant with the progress of the Repub
c. We inclose our general Circular,
and also a form of Application for Space,
to which w’e beg your attention. Copies
of these, or of this letter, if you desire
them, to send to your friends or corrcs*
pondents, can be had at this office, In
order that we may know on what exlent
of co-operation we may depend, the fa
vor of a reply on or before the loth day
of January is asked. Please address it
