lutei*3tin3 Pi'om Liberia. . The following letter, addtessed to the Williamsburgh Time*, it written by an in telligent colored man who emigrated from Williamsburgh, New York, to Liberia a few months ago. It will be seen that he is delighted with the change in his con dition and prospects: Monrovia, Jan. 23, 1853. I premised to let you bear from me when in Liberia, Africa, but although i Have been here two months, I cannot at this time give you much account of the place. This little republic is so far ahead of what 1 expected to find it, that your good people ofthe States would scarcely think 1 was narrating truth were I to de scribe all that 1 have seen, Liberia is a fine fertile country. Things of every kind grow here. The people are more com fortable, in every respect, and enjoy themselves much better than I have ever known them to do elsewhere. The houses are very large, and built mostly of brick and stone; they are two stories and two stories and a half high, from 30 to 50 feat front, and from 25 to 40 feel deep. The steps to these houses are composed of iron ore —a substanee on which the city was built. Iron ore is as plentiful in Monrovia as common stone is in Williamsburgh. Most of those who farm are located on the banks ofthe St. Paul river, about five miles from the city, and some are doing well. Allen Hooper, of New York, has been here a little over two years. He had but small means to commence with, but now has one of the best coffee planta tions on the river. He has seven thou sand trees, growing—two thousand of which are loaded with coffee —and he is of opinion that next year all will bear. Next 1 will mention A. Blacklege, who is making about twelve thousand pounds of sugar a year, and some hundreds of gallons of molasses and syrup—-all of which will favorably compare with the best imported articles of the kind. Sweet potatoes, Lima beans, Indian corn, cassada, plantains, and other table vegetables are raised up this river, which is 25 or 30 miles long. A. fine town is situated at the source of this stream; it is called Millsburg, and contains a popu lation of 800 or 1,000 persons-the most of whom employ themselves in making brick and hewing timber of all kinds for market. I have not ability to describe the ad vantages to be reaped in this country, nor have I the time. My business is so much better than it ever was before, that ] am constantly occupied in attending to ft. One word as to the fever. My children have all had it; so have all the emigrants who came out with us, except my wife, mvself, and two others. None of them kept their beds for more than two or three days. The fever is not as bad as it is generally represented to be. -1 have seen persons who have lived here for from two to twenty years, and who never had it at all. This is a great country for men and women who love liberty and who lores themselves, for money can he made here. Please to give my thanks to the gen tlemen in your city whose philanthropy was the cause of my success. 1 trust that you will publish this letter for the in formation of those who my wish to know something of this country. My next letter shall be longer, and will contain ■nueh more information repecting this colony of Liberia—a day-star of hope for the colored race. JOHN D. JOHNSON. Politeness between Brothers and Sisters. —By endeavoring to acquire a habit of politeness, it will soon bscome familiar and sit on you with ease, if aot with elegance. Let it never be forgot ten that genuine politeness is a great fos terer of family love; it allays accidental iritation, by preventing harsh retorts and ruds contradictions; it softens the boiste rous, stimulates the iadolent, suppresses selfishness, and, by forming a habit of consideration for others, harmonises the whole. Politeness begets politeness, and brothers may easily he won by it to leaveoff the tude way they bring home from school or college. Sisters ought never to receive any little atteution without thanking them for it, never to ask a favor of them but in courteous terms, never to reply to their questions in monosyllables, and they will soon be ashamed to do stieh things themselves. Both precept aad ex ample ought to be laid under contribution, to convince them that no one can have really good manners abroad who is aot habitually polite at home. Mrs. Stowe (Uncle Tom) is now to have a Roman oration, we see, or some thing like it, in England. The good Duchess of Sutherland, the Earl Carlisle, and sundry other of the finest lords and ladies in the land, are making great pre parations to bid her welcome from this, the land of bondage, to ikat, the land of free dom. We fervently trust Mrs. Stowe will onjoy herself in such company, as doubtless she will. StafibrJ House is to be thrown open for her especial use; she is to hold her levees there, and there she is to receive, in 6tale, as it were, the slan derers, denunciators, and libellers of her own country. Os course, the sort of society Mrs. Stowe is destined to keep in England is so very high, so very far up in the seventh heaven of British Aris tocracy, that she will never be permitUu to have opportunity to peer down into the horrible scenes of degradation which every square mile of an English aaining district presents. High life in London and Edinbtyg will shut her oat from the Lowly” there, so that wbeaHkdpea condescend to come back to of Bondage, she will do so, in all probability, with blacker concep tions of American institutions and Ame rican society then she seems to have already. \Ve tramblc for the next book John Bull will than tell her to write: but possibly this wretched country es ours may survive- it, as it has safely survived Uncle Tom. —New York Express.

The Pomegranate produced, fully, onc third the most, and bolls larger, and staple finer A. W. Patrick, James Perry, A. P. Torrence. Nkwton Covictt, Ga. Oct. 30,’1852. This will certify that I planted about twelve acres of Mr. Dickson's Pomegranate Colton this year, from which I shall gather nearly two thou sand pounds seed Cotton per acre, and would have gathered over that amount but for the injury re ceived by rains and the worm. The cotton was plantod one month later than my other cotton. I pronounce it s superior cotton, producing about one-third more than our common cotton. Thomas F. Jones. ’ Nkwton County, Ga. Nov. 1, 1852. 1 ha Mr. Dickson’s Pomegranate cot ton the last two years. It matures earlier than snv cotton 1 ever planted. I am satisfied it wilt produce about one-third more than the com mon cotton on the same soil. D. E. Strong, Covington, Ga.

I planted them side by aide with my oilier cotton, the land same, and tended alike; the Pomegranate pro duced lolly one-third the most, and made over one thousand pounds seed cotton per sere.

WB intend to publish in the city of Columbus, 9a. a paper under the title of “The Cor aaa Score.” We shall not attempt to foreshad ow our future course, by saying that we shall ad hare to and advocate the “great principles” of this or that “graal 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 ing object, which is to do whatever may be ne cessary to increase the amount of parly spoils, which are 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 be corrupt in all its parts, -holding that it belongs to, and is and will 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—thatinall respects End under all cir cumstances, the political connection between the two sections is productive of evil to the South, we shall advocate its dissolution. As to State politics, it there be any party which has any, wc are ignorant of it. So entirely i everything absorbed, in the effort to sustain a na tional organization, that the discuasian of princi ple and measurca, involving the rights and inter eats of the people, is often deprecatedand avoided, lest the party may be tnereby injured; as if the invasion, of the rights ol a citiien, by State legis lation were not as fatal and as much to be guarded against, as the exercise of an undelegated power by Con^teta. In what wo shall choose to consider and to trea as State politics, wc shall find much to discuss— lor there is much that is wrung somewhs'e. We boast that we have the beat Government on earth, and that we live in the full blace of (he light of Christianity, yet we have daily, tlio complaint, that aver all the land, crime and degradation, and misery are increasing, with appalling rapid ity. _ Such are not the legitimate fruits ol a pure Christianity or *f a good and wise government*. We shall consider all things connected with the rights and interest of the people, proper subjects for diicussion; our object will be to ami at the truth; aad when in our opinion, we shall have found it, We shall present it to our readers av it presents itself to us.

This preparation is made as pure as possible. Its bitter taste, and beneficial effects in diseases oj the Liver,and diseases arising from an impure state of the Blood, proves to be the purest and and most useful-preparation of Sarsaparilla that i made. Those who have used the various p r eparations ol Sarsaparilla, will find, by the taste and effect, that there is more Sarsaparilla in one bottle ol Dr. D’s. preparation, than in half a dozen bottles as it is generally made. That it might be more particularly adapted to professional use, nothing but the pure Sarsaparilla has been used, that for differenc diseases, phvs cinns might combine or prescrih with it, such ar tides as they might consider most appropriate in cases under fheir treatment. Its alterative and mildly purgative effect upon the bowels, make it not only a good substitute for Mercury, but useful in removing all diseases ari sing from the imprudent use of Mercury.

THE ref JIM.MIi, Published every Saturday , in the City of New York , at the very low price of $2 per annum. ON Saturday the first day of January next, the first number or the new series of this refined, piquant , cheap, and universally popular Family Newspaper, will be presented-to the public, printed on tine while paper,and anew and beautiful type, manufactured expressly for the purpose. This arrangement will afford all whodesue to receivethe work,an oppor tunity of commencing their subscription with the beginning of the year. Mr; Willis will continue his usual editorial la- bors, writing on THE pa<sinotopics os> interest, as they occur. He will also give, I'rntn lime to time, passages from his Travel* in the Tropic*, and in the South, and West, w.th portions of which ihc retideis of the Home Journal’are already familiar. His entire time being devoted to the paper , the well known variety and industry of his p:ii will be seen m its columns as before. But wc have anew feature to offer from the pen of Mr. Willis, and one that we believe (at this period of fa.-te for picturing* of real life) will be pre-eminently attrac tive. He proposes to give a scries of sketches de scriptive of COUNTRY-LIFE WITHIN CITY-REACH Our readers are acquainted with Ihc one success- [ ful effort in this classical writing. His “Letters ’ from under a bridge - ’ described mere country lift , as ‘ experienced in a remote retirement on the Su?que- 1 liannuh, For the last year or two he has been ta king advantage of the new facilities given by im-.j provements in railroads and steamboats—uniting the repose and beauty of rural life with the coin- ! forts and advantages of easy ncccsa to the rity. — ‘ He finds much in this which is new. I; forms a combination ol the desirable qualities of the true j modes 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, entitled WILD FLO WEll S, will adorn the columns of the forthcoming new series. The Town, as heretofore, will boa l. ailing to pic: nut Its trifles, fashions, and amusements mere ly, though these arc noted with care. The week ly chronicle of the Town, comprises notices, more or less minute, according to eiicumstanccs, of the important lecture*, meetings, works of art, schemes of improvement and benevolence, new enterprise, discoveries and inventions, as Delias the popular entertainments. * Interesting to Ladies,” is the t.tle of one department. Special pains arc taken to select from the news and literature of the world, those facts and ideas winch are of peculiar importance to the Women of America. A fairer held for their industry, and wider scope for the exercise of their genius, are among the necessities of the time to which we shall endeavor to attijjt public atten* tion. From new works of interest, or from valuable articles in the reviews and magazines, libcal cx tracts will be presented weekly. The Foreign Papers will continue to be care ully examined, and cveryibing of home interest extracted, and arranged under the head of “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 ol the columns ol the Home Journal whenever they desire to communicate with the public. These contri butions are a valuable feature of the paper. As the Home Journal is designed to be par ex cellence* Famii.t Paper, the editors keep in view the tasiee of the younger members of families, and endeavor to piovidc in each number, something specially adapted to the hkingof intelligent youth. Upon parly politic* and sectarian dogmas the Home Journal is silent; but upon subjects which are not in dispute between parties or sects, it enden vors to advocate the side of humanity ams justice; and to keep its readers in mind, that it i* not all of ife to 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 chronicle or all that interests all classes or society, and of the in telligence which most enlivens an American Home. . New-Yore is the great ccntio, and here at the great fountain-head of novelty, incident, literature, and foreign news, the Home Journal is printed ami published. Its editors p. Morris and N. P.

DR. RODGERS’ LIVERWORT AND TAR, Tor the complete cure of Coughs, Colds, Influenza, Asthma, Bronchitis, Spitting of Blood, und all other Lung Com plaints tending to CONMMPTiON. THE GR'iAT COUGH REMEDY! RE ADER! have you a Cough, which you a • neglecting, underjlhc idea that it is only common cold, and that it will soon “wear itself out?” Let a iriend tell you, in all kindness, who t will soon be the probable result. In a short time, it you continue to neglect your self, you will begin to feci a sense of tightness and oppression across the chest, accompanied wi’h frequent sharp darting puins. Then a dry, hack ing Cough, will set ir., and when you raise any thing it w-ill be a thick und yillow ish, nr white frothy matter, streaked, perhaps, with blood If j £u still take no medicine, these unpleasant sy tnp w illloms increase, and you will soon have Hec -1 tic Fever, Cold Chilis, Nicht Sweats, Copi j ous Expectoration, and then Great Prostra tion If you still neg'cct yourself, a few weeks ’ or months will see you consigned to the grave, I leaving vour friends to mourn how rapidly CON , SUMFfH'N “i:t iis work, and hurried you away. Friend! have you no cause to be alarmed? In the j above sketch you may see as in a glass, how every case of the Consumption progresses, with more cr less rapidity, to a fatal termination. Os all the [ Thousand* and Mil ions whom this great Destroy cr hu gathered to the tomb, rvc ry single cast be ’ gan with a Cold! If this hadj been attended to | all might have been well; but, being neglected ! under the fatal delusion that it would ‘‘wear itself j off,” it transferred its deadly action to the suli stniicc of the Lungs, exciting til-re the formats n jof tubercle*. Another, and another cold, added fuel to the flame, until these tubetcles began to soften and sappurate, leaving by their ulcera'ion, great cavities in the Lungs. At this c isis, the disease is very difficult of cure, and offen'iincs seta at defiance nil human means. In the lattei or worst stage, this medicine wil oftentimes arrest the disease, or check its progress, and will always make the patient more comforta ble, and prolong hi* life, and is therefore worthy of a dial; —but i:i its incipient or forming periods, Consumption is as curable as anv other diseases and “Dr Rogers’ Svrup of Liverwort, Tar adn GanchaLguu,” if taken at tins time, will cure it {C7 S> AS SURELY AS IT IS TAKEN! This is strong language, I ul we tan refer you to numltcrles* living witnesses to prove that it is TRUE! And therefore, wc earnestly exhoit every man, woman and child, who has a Cough, or is subject to Colds, to keep this medicine by yon in , the house; and whenever yon take Cold, do not “let it atone” to work mischief in your system, but eradicate it thoroughly, and at once, by this pow erful healing compound, and leave your Longs un injured, to carry you in full vigor to a good old ago, MOTHERS’ 1 Have you delicate, weakly children, who are at ways taking cold, and subject to Croup? Rem ember! There never was a case of Croup, which did not originate in a Cold! And w hen your child goes to bed wheezing and coughing, you know riot ilint, before morning, Croup may set in, and ere you can get a Physician, your dear child may be beyond the reach of help. We beseech you therefore, as you value the lives of your children, keep this medicine by you in Ihe house, and when your little ones lake cold and commence coughing, give it to them at once, and rest not until the cough is subdued. We conscientio lily aver, alter the most extended experience, that if this adyicc we be tbtlowcd, no child need ever DIE OF CROUP. for the cold would be cured before it could arrive at” this aggravated and fatal stage. Let eveiy Mother, especially, heed well these remarks, that she may not hereafter, when mourning over lie early blight ol some cherished blossom, have occa sion bitterly to reproach herself for her criminal neglect. It is nn old adage, that “to lie ii>r\v;irn<‘d, is to be forearmed.” Parent*! so let it be in your case. Be sure to a*k for Dr. A. Rogers’ Svrup of LI VERWORT, TAR and CANCHALAGUA, and let no other he palmed on you.
