Asms 4F2.otiuv.il* From the Mercury. Mr. Ruffin and the Mar iug System. Messrs. Editors.—As a number of our Planters have commenced Marlinjr thdr lands through the favorable repre sentations of Mr. Ruffin—they will be gratified to learn the estimation in which the system is held, by those who have had an opportunity of testing it for a number of years past. You will, lam sure, confer a favor on our Agricultural community by republishing from the Petersburg Republican , the proceedings of a meeting and a public dinner given to Mr. Ruffin, by the Farmers in this vicin ity, who were induced by his publica tions and example to resort to the use of Marl, and adopt his mode of Agriculture. It will tie perceived that such was their favorable opinion of the effects of Marl in resuscitating their worn out soils, and such their gratitude to the individual who had pointed out to them the means of increasing their comforts and advanc ing their prosperity, that now after an experience of ten years they gave him a dinner and presented him with a set of plate. Yours truly, B. From the Republican. Dinner given at Garysville in honor of Edmund Ruffin, Nr., Esq., by the Farmers of Prince George County. Prince George C. //, Dec. 12, 1843. Dear Sir: —At a meeting of the Far mers of this county, the following,among other resolutions, were adopted ; Be it therefore Resolved, That the Farmers of Prince George county, in consideration of the distinguished ser vices rendered by Edmund Ruffin. Esq., Sen. in promoting the Agricultural in terests of this county, by the practical use of marl as a manure, and by his es say's on that subject, do t nder to him a farmers’ dinner at such time as may suit his convenience ; and that a committee of seven be appointed to correspond with Mr. Ruffin on this subject. Resolved further, That we will, at said dinner, tender to Mr. Ruffin some memento in token of our approbation of his services in the cause of Agriculture. We, a Committee appointed for that purpose, in behalf of the farmers of the comity, tender to yon a public dinner, to be given at Garysville on the2Bih of the present month—or at any time which your convenience may dictate. Feeling as we sensibly do, that we are mainly indebted to you for whatever share of prosperity we enjoy as farmers, loving you as a man. esteeming you us a neigh bor, and honoring you as a lienefactor, we should be wanting injustice to our feelings if we did not assure you of the sincere pleasure it gives ns to announce to you the wishes of your country-men. W e are respectfully, Your ob't servants, THEODORICK BLAND, ELGIN RUSSELL,) W, SIMMONS, WM. E. PROCTOR, THUS. H. DANIEL, TIM. RIVES, WM. SHANDS, Sen. Columbia. (S. C.) Dec. 15th, 1843. Gentlemen : The expressions of approbation and f ivor which have been recently bestowed on me by the public resolutions of the farmers of Prince George county, and further, by yourselves, as their commit tee, are in the highest degree gratifying to ray feelings. I accept, with much pleasure, the invitation to partake of a public dinner at Garysville, on the 28th mst.—which time is entirely convenient, and suitable to my arrangements for closing my labors on the Agricultural Survery of South Carolina. Respectfully and truly. Your friend, EDMUND RUFFIN. To Messrs. Theodorick Bland, Elgin Russell, W. Simmons, Win. E. Proctor, Thomas H. Daniel, Tim Rives, Win. Shands, Sen.—Committee. • Importance of Omitting. W r hen we have got a piece of good loamy land lying on a dry subsoil, or well drained, it is onr own fault if we have not good crops or if the vicissitudes of the seasons affect us to any great ex tent. The last two years we have try ed to keep our land dry in winter.— Whoever has observed the difference be tween the produce of two fields, both of nearly the same quality, but the one drained and the sulisoil ploughed, and the other merely ploughed up in high and narrow stretches, must he fully con vinced that the capital which is laid out in thorough draining*often pays a better interest, without risk, that the most usu rious discounter of short bills could have the conscience to desire- This year it has been 100 per cent, and more, in some heavy wet soils, now laid dry.— Draining, in the best manner, seldom costs more than L. 6 per acre, and it can be done effectually lor half that sum. Without being drained, the cold wet lauds which abound in England will not average 16 bushels of wheat per acre, taking into the account the great many field which failed entirely'. The same soil properly drained, with the same labour and manure, will average 30 bushels, with double the quantity of s'raw, and more than a bushel per acre of seed may be saved. Here then is a differre ice of 15 bushels per acre, which at 6s. amount to L. 4. 10s., and allow ing a load of straw more than on the un drained land, worth L. 1 10s., we have just the cost of the draining, or cent upon cent on the capital. We have ourselves realized this difference; and we have 10 acres of wheat in a drained field, and 8 acres in another of equal quality, but not drained, of which the first will average by estimate 36 bushels per acre, while we do not expect more than 20 or 22 from the other. The poorer crop has been the most expensive, owing to the constant hoeing and weed ing required to keep it clean. After this, can any proprietor or tenant hesitate to have his heavy and wet lands drained ? If neither the one nor the other have money to spare, let them borrow it if they can, at five or six or more per cent.— They will soon be enabled to pay off the debt; but every prudent landlord should urge his tenants to drain, and of fi r to find tiles on receiving five per cent, additional rent for the cost of them. Gardner's Cronicle. I,aril Oil. At one of the sectional sittings of the late meeting of the British Association, Mr. Hawkins stated that many of the set tlers in the vale of the Mississippi were going largely into the production of lard oil, which is found to be much better for the lubrication of machinery than sperm oil, now so generally in use for that pur pose ; that the expense of producing this oil is singularly small, and considerable exportations to the manufacturing coun tries may shortly be expected at very low prices ; that the mode generally pur sued is to drive a thousand, more or less, of young pigs into the woods to feed themselves on acrons, beech mast. &c., 1 for nine months, during which time they grow into large hogs: they are then driv en into a farm yard and fattened upon Indian corn or maize for a month, at the end of which period they are killed, and the whole mass, fat and lean together, boiled into lard, except when hams are in demand for exportation, in which case they are cut out and sold separately : that the scraps left after the lard is pres sed out hear a very small proportion to the previous weight of the hog, much the greater part being converted into lard ; that the lard is tlien mixed with a certain proportion of alcohol, and sub jected to heat, which separates the mass into stearine and ealine— the stearine be- ing of a consistence similar to sperma ceti, is manufactured into candles; and the eline is the lard oil, the principal product, from which great profit is ex pected. Time. Whether we play, or labour, or sleep, or dance, or study the sun posteth and the sand runs. In all the actions that a man performs, some part of his life pass eth. We die with doing that for which only one sliding life was granted. Nay, though we do nothing. Time keeps his constant pace, and flies as fast in idleness as in emplayment. An hour of vice is as long as an hour of virtue : but the dif ference which follows upon good actions is infinite from that of ill ones. The good, though it diminishes our time here, yet it lays up a pleasure for eternity, and will recompense what it taketh away with a plentiful return at last. When we trade with virtue, we do but buy pleasure with expense of time; so it is not so much a consuming of time as an exchange. Time is a ship which never anchors ; while I nm abroad, 1 had better do those things that may advantage my landing than practise such as shall cause, my commitment when I come to the shore. In Paris there are two lodges of female Masons, distinguished by the endearing appellations of Candor and Fidelity. NEW BOOK STORE ON COTTON AVENUiv Two doors above Messrs. J. H. 6c W. S.

Relieving the present to be a crisis too important to the interests of the .••einocratic party to allow any press devoted toils cause to sink for want if support, the subscriber has, at the instance of many friends, con sented to assume the editorial guidance of the l eiets burg Republican. Recognizing in the late temporary defeat of D< moc racy the necessity of recurrence for future success to the fundamental principles of States' Rights, and their strict application to all Federal issues. The Republi can wili neither in itself exhibit laxity of political faith, nor tolerate its indulgence in others, but wiil undevia tinglv adhere to the noble principles, as admirably em bodied by one of our distinguished Statesmen—‘Free trade; low duties ;no debt; seperation from Banks; economy; retrenchment; and strict adherance to the Constitution.” The successful and permanent estab lishment of ibis wise and just system of measures must grratly depend on the judicious selection of the I lento cratic candidate for the next Presidency, and believing the amplest guarantee of these important ends to be afforded by tlic eminent abilities and unsullied fai'h of JOHN C. CALHOUN,the Republican will advocate his claims to the nomination of the National Conven tion. These claims will be enforced w ith due respect to the preferences of others, anil the cordial support of this press will he given to the Nominee of a Conven tion so assembled as to lie general, and so constituted as to give a clear expression to the will of the majority. The Petersburg Republican will, as heretofore, he published three times a week, at Five Dollars per an num, always payable in advance.

It will be devoted to the spread of true Democratic princi ples and will adopt for its motto the words of the Hon. John C-Calhoun—‘‘Free Trade; Low Duties; No Debt; Separation from Batiks ; Economy, Retrench ment; ana strict adherence to the Constitutionand will bear alofi his truly Democratic banner. It will al so strongly advocate the limitation ol the tenure of the Presidential office to one term —not only in justice to te distinguished public men of the nation, but as more consonant to the genius of our Republican institutions and more conducive to a faithful and independent ad ministration of the Government. As the most direct and effective mode of securing the permanent ascendancy of these cardinal princi pies, the Spectator will zealously urge upon the coun try the claims ot the distinguished Southern States man for ihe Presidency. In doing tins, it will not lie unmindful of the integrity and safety of the Republi can Party, an 1 will manifest a proper regard for the preiensions of the prominent individuals who have been named for this high trust, and are identified with the advancement of these principles. The Spectator will lie edited by one of the ablest and most experien ced political writers of the day. The terms are three dollars per year, in advance, for a single copy. Clubs and individuals, ordering more than one copy, and forwarding the amount of subscriptions in ud vance, will receive them on the following terms: Five ■% liars per annum for two copies. Twelve dollars per annum for five copies. Twenty dollars per annum for ten copies. No paper will be sent without a remittance of the sub scription.

THE approaching session of Congress will, doubtlea, he the most important one, in many respects, in the annals of American politics. The occurrences will be interesting to every citizen, and we shall make extensive arrangements to spread before our readers the earliest, most elabo rate, and most correct accounts of every thing that transpires at the capital. The proceedings of Con gress will be minutely attended to, and speeches delivered in both Houses given at length. The approaching Congress will differ in many re spects from any other ever convened. The Execu tive will be firm and just, and yet courteous and conciliatory to all the parties that compose the Con gress, so that in the political conflicts, which may be anticipated, the PEOPLE'S interests may not be altogether neglected. One party will have the as cendancy in the Senate —the other in the House, while the President will strive, in behalf of the cocntrt, to harmonize their legislative action. Congress will find that, under the present Execu tive, the revenues being in responsible hands, no defalcations have occurred, and that the agents, en trusted with the public funds, have merited the con fidence of both parties. It will find a tariff some what imperft ct, and differing from the one recom mended by Mr. Tyler, passed in the House by the casting votes of twenty-one Democrats — thirty-Jlre Clay whips voting against it; while in the Senate four or five Democrats voted for it, and twice that number of Whigs against it. It will find that the currency of the country is in a sounder condition than it has been for twenty years, and that too with oui a Bank, or any thing of a kindred nature ; while the five millions of Treasury notes authorized to be issued bearing six per cent., are taken by 'he Gov ernment creditors without any interest at all. It wiJ find demagogues and political managers busy cheat ing the People as usual, preaching distribution, as sumption of state debts, bank, &c. But they can never make much progress while Mr. Tyler is Pres ident. All these exciting subjects will be agitated for the benefit of Presidential aspirants. At such a time, it is necessary that the citizens in every section of the Union should know what is done by their representatives, and be acquainted with the import and design of the debates tnd move ments in Congress. The session will no doubt be long, as well as intensely exciting, and lienee the in ducement to subscribe for the Madisonian by the year. TERMS: (always in advance.)

Agriculture —that most important branch of industry, will not he neglected in the pages of the Advocate. To this branch we shall devote much attention, and in addition, to such selected articles, as may he of interest to this section, we will endeaver to procure the assis tance of the tarmersin Weste'n Georgia, who, by giv ing their own experience and mode of culnne, will bring forward others, and thus all reap a benefit.

It will be an object of the undersigned to make the Advocate such a paper as every subscriber will feel a pleasure ill perusing himself, and in placing before his family, and when Ins year expires, renew Ins subscription with a smile on his countenance.

[The following is from Mr. Isaac M. l llolnas, Mer chant, at Talladega Springs, Alabama.] Talladega Springs, Talladega Cos. Ala. August 17,1842. This is to certify, that I have been afflicted with Sick Headache, Dyspepsia, and Liver Complaint, and Costiveness for the last eight or nine years, du ring which time I had taken, as well as I recollect, about sixty bores of Beckwith’s Pills, twelve boxes of Peters’ Pills, and a number of boxes of Champion’s and Brandreth’g Pills, all of which afforded me but little or no relief. At last, I was recommended to try Dr. Spencer's Vegetable Pills, and well I did; for Inever bad but one attack of the Sick Headache af ter I commenced taking the Pills, (now about air months) and I candidly confess, that I have derived more real benefit from the me of Spencer’s Pill?, than from all the other Medicines and Pills that I have ever taken, and I would earnestly recommend them to all, as being in my opinion, the best medi cine in use for all lingering complaints. The Pill* have done uic s< • much good, that 1 would uot fed willing to be without them for five dollars a box ; and I cannot but feel very grateful to Dr. Spencer for having prepared such a valuable medicine, and the distribution of it is conferring a very great favor on the public, as it is a thing of the utmost importance that every family should have a supply of Dr. Spen cer's truly valuable Pills constantly on band.

I was appointed an agent fur the sale of them about fix months ago, at which time the travelling agent left me about one Ihutidred boxes, and I have sold out every box Ion;' since, and could have sold a? many more if they had been left. I think every family should keep a supply always on hand. 1 have never sold any Pills in my store that have been liked so well as Spencer’s Vegetable Pills. ADAM RISER.
