It is pro;oseJ by the ad- Ul '-ites of the plan, to nuite the ponton of the Sale ly '.!* West of the Chattahoochee river to Alabama, and l' 4 - torsion 1 ing belweea the Chattahoochee and Bu •••anaev r.vers to Georg a, the bahiuce to constitute the ~ in* State ol l - fotida. * i’liis division. Mr. Editor, though rccommendable on inV accounts, would, if at temp.e l, have to encounter di.hcultie* and prejudices, aiding from the State fee:- r. and priJe of the people of the portions of Florida, M-tip*‘.'cd to be adjoined to Georgia and Alabama, Vl :ch if not surmountable, would probably be hard to erco.ne. But h iv.-ver this prupositiou may be met i iV West and Middle Florida, it is certainly one ‘veil ’ ilculated to attract attention, and excite sonic degree , * interest in Alabama and Georgia ; as the former, in he event of its being carried into etleet, would acquire wLat she so much wants, a port deep enough lor ships ol i in then; u late the latter would obtain a double unuv , *. e teons -one on the Atlantic, and one on the Gulf of Mexico. It would, however, Mr. Editor, be a stili bet "ei rangeme.it, we humbly think, were the parties u .iceiued to reverse the proposed process, by Alabama aim Gtsegia surrendering t\u.-h a pnr.ton of their over- I (Mown domain, to the S.ate ol Florida, so as to admit u s ihe West atid Middle divisions, being erected into se; ..rate and independent States. This measure, while i; wenid give two more slave States to tiie Union, and thus gre.i ly strengthen the Sou.h, would as need scatce be obsetved. al*. add to the resnuicc-s, heighten the po litical status, and impart a quickening impulse to the prosperity of these new members of the confederacy.— Their union would be drawn closer, a.id be made more permanent by such a * jtirntton ms paradoxical as tins may sound ) As the tederal bond, which binds the States together, is stronger, and of a more vital kind, aud calculated, therefoie, to prove more lasting, than the unnatural connection, by which there is less connec tion of interests, and less communication between Hast and West l iotida, than between either of them, and Canada <>r the State of Maine. The plan is, however, we believe, popular, or at any iv.te favorably regarded in this part cf the State though getgranhically disjoined, they are forcibly linked to each other, and present, like a realization of the force of ‘•three single gentlemen rolled into one. ’ The L nion would hus for once be strengthened by • < is on, and the South brought more on a par in power aud weight and political influence with the Nonh and West, or the mm slarciiolding S ates. Tbe new States would also come into the confederacy in a mote advanced condition, and therefore better prepared to assume aud exercise the task of self-governmen , than any that ever before eu tered it. Georgia, in the event of the tirst proposition pr-vaiii.ig, would be called on to grant to Mast Florida, as an equivalent for the acquisition of ihe Middle Dis tric% and an access to the Gulf of Mexico, an extension of her boundary, at least as for as ihe big .Satilla ; a cession which she could well spare from her immense domain, which by the proposed arrangement, would stretch in a manner unexampled in the ease of any oih erSaefrom sea to sea. Ihe three divisions of Florida are indeed so for disjoined, and so slightly, yet forc-i ----bly, and therefore so insecurely held together, that some such arrangements as those wchave here briefly and cur sorily suggested, would seem to be required, both by a regard to the true and best interests of these divi sions, and to those of the Union generally. For the im mensely extended seaboard of Florida, equal nearly to that of all the rest of the Union, presents an exposed and therefore vulnerable frontier, which no single Stale can defend or properly guard. Without some such di vision iheu, as we hare indicated above, tbe General Government will be compelled, sooner or later, to take this vast and exposed sea line under its care and protec tion. however it may have to encroach in doing so, upon the righ.s aud sovereignty of the State. CRAWFORD. Orange Springs, East Florida. Gbowth or Nashville. —ln l'fo, the population of Nashville was six thousand nine hundred; in 1850 it was sixteen thousand; now it is estimated variously from eighteen thousand to twenty-three thousand, and ii- probably actually about twenty thousand. Great changes have recently taken place in the elements of its growth. A few years ago scarcely anything was man ufactured here, otherwise than by hand labor. Now, \ ritms s.eam engines are throwing up their columns of black smoke in dliferent parts of the city, aud almost everything is being manufactured by improved labor saving machinery. A tew years ago we were importing t.ui cut stone from Cincinnati. Now the tines; Italian, Trut.e se.’ and other marbles, are being sawed and pol ished by steam and horse power in the city, and the el egant an 1 costly products are supplied in large qu.tn t. ies to purchasers at a distance. Meantime, engine shops, planing mills, trip-hammers, car factories, wag on and plough fae ories. furniture shops, Ac., driven bv s earn, with powerful and improved machinery, are springing iuto existence m Nashville and South Nash ville, and the hundreds of skilled laborers and artisans employed in ihem, increase die consumption of the farmer's produc s, and keep the masons and the carpen ters employed in furnishing new tenements to house t'.e u. Ihe h itels are tilled with strangers, reaching us dady by railroad and oiberw.se. The wholesale busi ness ot ihe city his probable been doubled within the last few years. The grocery business has been immense ly enlarged. The retail dry g.ods houses inform us that their business has been grea ly increased. The c ty is now as full of |>opu!a:ion a- .n egg is of meat New buildings are rapidly going up, both in the city and the suburbs, and the demand is still for more bou *es. Nashville, the most beautiful and pleasant city iu the Mississippi \ alley, has just fairly began to grow.— Ban ner. Prospective Aucsesisxts.—The arrangements for Fran coin’s Hippodrome are progressing with spirit on both sides of the Atlantic. Ihe billowing distinguished artists have been engaged, and will arrive in April: Madame Frauconi, Arons. and Madame Cherenie, Mile. Cberente, Hippodionte and menage riders; J.es Fnres Siegrist, the original “perch” and acrobatic performer ; Me>dan*es Siegnst, Sylvester and Richard, chariot dri vers, with their ass;-tan Band grooms; Mile, sjyivesten. Mile. Mason, Mile. Angelina, Mile. Caroline Vidal, Mile. Leotnine tiilturi, Mile. Adeline Bigott. Mile. Eugenie C.trf. and Mile. Eugenie Maria—names well known to the trequemers of the Hippodrome in Paris, and who have only been induced to cross the Atlantic at immense salaries. This detachment will be accompanied by Mods. Ferdinand Maria, principal director of the course, and his various attaches, grooms, trainers, Ac. The trained ostriches have already arrived The principal chariot horses, race horse, drivers, riders, Ac., will come out in the steamer Washington, which leaves Havre on the 30ta inst. The great “Car of Flowers” is expected in the ship Sea Duck. Every effort is being made to open on the Is. of May. Mens. Juilien will soon leave England for New York. He has engaged thecelebrated prima donna, Mile. Anna Lerr. who will accompany him to America, thus making Lis arrangements complete. How TO MAKE ONE FaRM F.QCAL TO TItHEE. —-O. T. Stewart, Esq., in a recent Address before the Ohio Ag ricultural Society, thus speaks on the subject: Many farmers who are destroying the productiveness of their farms by shallow-work, as they find that their crops are diminishing, think only of extending their area by adding acres of surface, as if they supposed that their title deeds only gave them a right to six inches deep of earth. If they will take these deeds, study their meaning, and apply the lessons to their fields, they will soon realise in three-fold crops the fact that the law has given them three farms where they supposed they had but one -in other words that the sub-oil brought up aad combined with the top soil and enriched with the atmospheric influences, and these other elements which agricultural science will teach them tot ppl v their ground, nil i c.e s tiret-f 11, l e i.easaus of its j o ductiveness. To show to wnat au extent the fertility of the soil can be increased, I refer to a statement iu the last Patent Oiiice Report. Iu the year !'->>, there were nine competitors for the premium corn crop of Ken tucky, each of whom cultivated 10 acres. Their ave rage crop was about 122 bushels per acre At that time tlie crop of wheat tier acre in the harvests of Great Britain, on a soil cultiva'ed for centuries, is almost dou ble that produced on the virgin soil of Ohio. Why is this* Stir;ply because British farmers are educated men, and apply work wisely. They pay back to the earth what they borrow ; they endeavor by every means iu their power, to enrich their ground, and in return it enriches them. If our formers, instead of laboring to double their acres, would endeavor to double their crops, they would tind it a vast saving of time and toil, aud au increase ol protits. Muuv of them uerei think of digging ten inches into the soil, unless they have dreamed about u crock of gold hid in the earth; hut if iht-y would set a bent the work ot digging in earnest, every man would find his crock of gold without the aid of dreams and divination. We have a great advantage over the British farmers in ihe fact that our formers nearly all hold the lands which they cultivate in fee simple, while in England they are chiefly tenants, hiring the lands of the nobility, paying enormous rents to the proprietors, besides hea vy taxes to government. Tuxes here are comparative ly I ght, and our formers are their own landlords Hence they have been able to pay three-fold wage* for labor to (hose paid in Europe, pay the cos’s and trans portation. and yet undtrre!! tfc Briti. Lt formers u their own maiket. Smith, the auctioneer, is a popular man, a wit and gentleman. No person is offended at what he says, and many a hearty laugh lets he provoked by his hu morous savings. He was recently engaged in a sale of venerable household furniture and “ lixins.” fie hid just got to “going, going, and a half, u half, going!” when he saw a smiling countenance, upon agricultural shoulders, wink at him. A wink is always ns good as a nod to a blind horse, or to a keen-siglred auctioneer, so Smith winked, and the man winked, and thov kept winking, and Stni h kept “going, going, going,” with a lot ot glassware, store-pipes, cartoifs, pots, and perfu mery, and finally the lot was knocked flown— “ To—a who?” said Smith, gazing at the smiling straeger. “Who? Golly!” said the stranger, “ I duti-no uho ” “ Why, you. sir,” said Smith. “Who, me?” “ I e-, yes, you bid on ihe lot,” said Smith. ” Me? danied if I did,” insis’ed th? s'ranger. •• Why, did not you wink aud keep winking*” “Winking! Well l did, so did you wink at me. I thought vou were wink .gas much as to say keep dark, ’I il si', k somebody in :hat lot < f stiifT;’ and I winked as much as to aav I’ll be dtrrcal if vou don’t, mis ter The Sha! l Box ix Oglethorpe.— This disease is n the wane in this vicinity.

By (he schooner lLrnnt and, the N w Orleans P c .yutte received full tiles from Vo; a Cruz to the Itch, and liven th-* city of Mexico to the ! th u!r. The news contained iu them is of little interest. With the exception of Wra Cruz, there seems to i,o little feeling produced in Mexico by the publication if Scnor Escobar's report of his interview with Santa At.- na.

The sum of was col lected fr hint by the congregation, and by tlu.- ayuntatuiento. T;:e State of Yucatan has voted for Santa Anna as : Bresident, and the Territory of Colima for General 1 U rjga. It was said that Santa Anna’s first act on his tetit’.n to Mexico would be laying of the first stone for the con struction of the railroad to Tacubaya. 1 he State authorities of Vera Cruz hud ordered a pub- 1 lie reception for Santa Anna, who was expected about the last of March. Great complaints were made liecae.se the Supreme Government demanded the payment of the ti percent, export duty in Mexico on the last conduct*. it is said that the collector at \ era Cruz has about Cx ..i,oi.i ,n hand, collected trout duties, which he refu ses to pay any one except Santa Anna.

The books and accounts of the County Treasurer, have also been examined, and we iind them well kept, and vouchers for all disbursements. There appears to be a balance in his bauds due the county of three hun dred and eighteen dollars and eighty-eight cents. The county Jail has been visited bv a committee from >ur body, and it is reported to be in good order, with 1 he exception of the door, which needs anew lock, and some other slight, repairs, which we recommend liie Inferior Court to have attended to as soon as possible. Feeling, as we do, the g.eat importance and benefits >f education being extended to every child in the •ounty, we recommend our Representatives in the next legislature, to urge upon that body the passage of a aw prescribing more fullv what amount of property lersous shall possess to entitle them to the benefits of .he Educational Fund, and what amount of pay teachers •hall have per day, and the s.udics to he pursued. We further recommend that the Ordinary cause to ‘he levied a tax of twenty-five percent, for the educa tion of the poor. In looking over the returns of the Ordinary, we find in h:s hands four hundred and forty-nine dollars mid forty-six cents, to meet an indebtedness of six hundred and” eighty-oue dollars and forty two cents; leaving a deficit of two hundred and thirty-one dollars mid ninety six cents, in addition, the returns submitted to us show that there are two hundred and sixty-five children oe; tided us being entitled to the benefits of the Educa tional Fund. The rua ls, in all parts of the county, are complained of as being in a miserable condition, in fact almost im passable, and we hope the inferior Court will see that they are put in good order. \Ve respectfully request of His Honor Judge John son, a copy of his charge made to this body, at the commencement of this term, believing, as we do, that it was the ablest one we have ever beard from the bench, and that its publication will tend to the advancement of the morals of our people, and a more fearless and ener getic execution of :Ik* laws of the land. In conclusion, ■.ve tender him our sincere thanks for the ability and independence with which he discharges the high trusts confided to him. We cannot fail :o tender our warmest thanks to tiro Solicitor Oeneral, Y\ m.

Many years of trial, instead of impairing the public confidence in this medicine, has won for il an apprecia ion and notoriety by far exceeding the most sgutnc ‘xpeetationsof its friends. Nothing but its intrinsic •’illucs and the unmistakable benefit conferred on thou- i -ands of sufferers, could origin:: ea -.d maintain tlie rep -1 tat ion it enjoys. While many inferior remedies th: list ipon the community, have failed and been discarded, his has gained friends hj- every trial, conferred bene its on the afflicted thev can never forget, and procured :ures too numerous and too remarkable to he forgotten. While it is a fraud on tlie public to pretend that any >ne medicine will infallibly cure- still there is abuu lant proof that the (.'lurry Pectoral does not only as a general tiling, but almost invariably, cure the maladies or which it is employed. As time makes these facts wider and better known, his medicine has become the hast reliance of tlie aftlic ed, from the log cabin cf the American peasant, to the >alaces of European Kings. Throughout this entire •ountry, in every State, city, and almost every hamlet contains, Cherry Perioral is known as tlie liesi reine ly extant for diseaaesof the Throat and Lungs, and in nany foreign countries, it is coming to lr* extensively ised by their most intelligent Physicians. In Great dritain, France aud Germany, where the medical sci ’ tires have reached their highe: i perfection, Cherry • ’ectoial is introduced, and in constant use in the Ar- J lies, Hospitals, Alms llou.- -s, PubPe Lisrinitions, and In domestic practice, n < the surest 1 emedy, their ntteud ng Physician.-, can employ for the 1. ore dangerous us , .ectioas of the Lungs, Also, in milder . nutl for ( hildien it is safe, pleasant and eftectci.il to cure. In •fact, some cf the most flattering testimonials wc re ceive have been from parent.- who have found it elSer.- eious i 1 cases purlieulariy incidental to childhood. The Cherry Pectoral is m nti Pictured hv a practical | Chemist, and every ounce of it tm ler his own eve, with invariable accuracy and care. It is waled and pro tects by law from counterfeits, consequently can be relied on nsgenuine w incut adulteration. We have endeavored hen*! to furnish the community with a medicine cf such in rinsic -upertoriry and worth as should commend i-szlHo their confidence - remedy it once side, speedy and effectual, will li his has by re peated and countless trials proved itself to be: and 111s! by great cave and preparing it with chemical ac curacy, of uniform strength o ,and Physicians anew agent on which they can rely for the best resulfa, end die afflicted with a remedy (ha. will do for them all that medicine can do.
