m~ ii t i a cjti £ n%rw. &ib ¥'l Continued from last teeth, kt th is fi n3, I prosu-lie fn* there are few if a:iv persons who commenced ni iriw ' as £ir bask as 10 years and prosecuted the work steadily afterwards, whose farms are not now doubled, ilnot tripled, ill productive value, from this one source of increase alone. Nor is this early and unusually rapid progress, which you have made in this m<>de of knorovemont, owin/ merely; as some mijht infer, to the superior profit which it pro nrtes in advance of its actual trial. Forthwith truly it presents that claim for preference, and though that claim has been made known by publications, to, at least, all the readinit and most in telligent atrricidluralists of the United States still, no where else have the prac tical operations compared with yours, And those of lower Virginia generally. In western New York, where Agricul ture, in general, is belter conducted than with us. the many valuable beds of inarl remain untouched. Rich shell marl, of fresh water, is found in New Jersey, Vermont, and probably in most or all other of the Nbrthen States, and not one trial has lieen made of them, or if made, has yet been published'. Not the least interest on the subject seems to have been excited there. Indeed, not long ago. the Editor of an Agricultural paper, (the Massachusetts Ploughman,) and he a practical farmer, proclaimed his doubts of the ii ility or profit of lime ns manure; and Dr. Dana, a distinguished and pop u!ar writer on Bgricultural chemistry, hi his “Muck Manual,” treats with deni al and contempt the doctrine of general deficiency of linv? in soils, and the ne c'ss ty for a greater supp’y. Indeed, he main ains that every soil, even the jioor rest and most destitute m .Massachusetts, has already an abundant natural supply of lime. Thus, even at this late day, yrmr practice is far from having the gen eral support either of the practical farm ers, or tiie scientific writers and Agricul til alists of the North Then ns to prac tice, and in regions more like your own, and neitrer ho-ne. In North Carolina, where the marl beds are rich and exten sive, but little use has been made of them; and none at all in Georgia, where they have been much more liounteously be stowed. In South Carolina, also, very little of thought and less labor had been giver, to this source of wealth before the present year. But, it is just and proper to ndJ, that howeva r late in beginning, most of the intelligent planters of South Carolina are now well awakened to the value of this improvement, and many have already commenced marling, and o ne of them are making unexampled >rogress. The planters of that State will nt long be behind any in Virginia in he extent, at least, of their marling and irniiig of erations. The few among this company who l*e as old residents of Prince George unity as myself can can as well remem ■rour Agricultural and social condition, •fore thi-re existed either practical uowledge, nr even hope of profitableor, >iding improvement of onrinnd, or our yricnitural condition, whether from iarling or liming, or from nnv other uirce. And the former condition of i igs, and the strong contrast to the -esent, enn hardly be realised by those ho were then children, or unborn. Verity-five veais ago, there was scarce / a proprietor in my neighborhood, and eriving his income from his cultivation, /ho did hot djsire to sell his land ; and /ho w is not prevented* only by the im possibility of finding a purchaser, unless at half of the then very low estimated values and prices of lands. All wished tOi.ell—none to buy. If a stranger had been inclined to settle atnot.g us, lie might have chosen almost any farm in the country, and would scarcely have failed to find the owner glad to sell, and at a low price. And ifso strange a fancy had*possessed one or ltnre persons as to wish to buy 20 contiguous farms; and the wish and intention had been adver tised, so far from the market price being raised by so sudden and large a demand the previous prices asked would probably have been even reduced, by the eager competition of those driving to be a rnong the lucky sellers and fearing to miss so rare a chance ; and alt of whom, so soon ns thus released from their pre vious tic and encumbrance, would have gone their way, rejoicing to aid in filling trp-the great Western wilderness. Now mark the contrast since presented. In all of this my old neighborhood, and, so far as 1 know, throughout the whole country, not one individual, after be ginning to marl, has emigrated, or de sired to emigrate. Yet within the same space of time, the rage for emigration has passed over other parts of Virginia l»ce a pestilence, leaving marks of deso lat tin which will scarcely be effaced by tYenty years of subsequent iudntry and Er Tiie pnees of lands here tve greatl; increased, though less than tHcir trito value. But I know not how t*«-stum-itd the rate '(yftiiwttttte, because sales are now even more rare than for merly, though for the opposite reason. Then it was that iwibody would' bay. Niw nobody wilf sell. Th& I have cause to know to my sorrow, so far as personal feeling .and interest are concern ed. F> >r 1 have been anxious lor some years to buy some farm in my old neigh borhood, and mar to the homes of my older a id settled children,- nnd to pass tha remainder of mv declining years n#ar w n-ie I was born, «nd ,, ha've lii'ed aid labored larige?t. And my anxious effort to buy has been in vain; no pro prieterr being willing to sell any farm worth the buying as a residence. And in consequence of this disappointment, and despair of doing better, I have recent ly bought a fnrffi so remote, that, with all its great advantages, 1 shall go to it with the reluctanl feelings of An exile. But estimates of increased production, and increased values and prices of your marled land even though the One or the other may be triple or quadrupled, do not indicate all, or the most important bene fits you have derived from marling.— There has been produced a still more valuable improvement in the people themselves—in industry,general habits, demand for and acquirement of educa tion, and in all the results which are sure to proceed from these causes. Up to the time so often referred to, 25 years ago. and still later, the former large estates of tills country, in every successive genera tion, had been more and more reduced in size, as well as all lands in their rate ot production. Almost every man was growing poorer, or the prospects of his family becoming worse. The grade of society had been, and still continued to be, decidedly on the decline. And the proprietors, having no hope of the im provement of their lands, or of lieing re munerated for eve so great iddustry and devotion to their business, thought it as well to-bestow very little. Accordingly, like the inhabitants of a city ravaged by the plague, and from the like motives, they thought more of present enjoyment, than of providing for future wants ; and there prevailed generally habits af idle ness. and improvidence, of pleasure-seek ing, and of neglect of business, with all their necessary consequences Now all has been changed. 1 know no where a more industrious and steadily thriving community than is now exhibi ed in the present occupants of the same ground. Among them, I believe it would be diffi cult to find a young land-holder who is not industrious, attentive to his business, and thriving in his operations; and if seeking pleasure less than his predeces sors finding it for more successfully, in steady attention to the cultivation and improvernt o f his farm. And this change, and all these results anJ lienefits, eco nomical, social and moral, are mainly owi.ig to thii one circumstance—that every man has now presented to him, in certain prospect, a full and sure reward for his lobors. And that prospect, alone, will serve to render any community in dustrious and frugal; as the absence of all such prospect will as surely render any community, in the general, idle, cureless, and wasteful of their means.

One party will hat c the as cendancy in the Senate —the other in the House, while the President will strive, in sehaif or the country, to harmonize their legislative action. Congress will find that, under the present Execu tive, the revenue# being in responsible hands, no defalcations have, occurred, and that the agents, en trusted with the public funds, have merited tlto con fidence of both parties.

Thomas, Mer chant, at Talladega Springs, Alabama.] Talladega Strings, Talladega Cos. Ala. August 17, 1942. 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, dm ring which time I had taken, as well as I recollect, about sixty boxes of Beckwith’s Pilb, twelve boxi» of Peters’Pills, and a number of Imxcs of Champion's and Brandretb’s Pills, all of which afforded me but little or no relief. At last, I was recommended to try Dr. Spencer’s Vegetable Pill*, and veil 1 did; for Inevor had but one attack of the Sick Headache af ter I commenced taking the Pills, (now about sir months) and I candidly confess, that I hare derived more real benefit from the use of Spencer’s Pills than from all the other Medicines and Pills aftat 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 Pills have done me so much good, that 1 would not feel willing to be cithout them for five dollars a box; and 1 cannot but feel very grateful to Dr. Spencer fur having prepared such a valuable medicine, and tht distribution of il 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. Speu cer’s truly valuable Pills constantly on band. ISAAC M. THOMAS. [From Mr. Adam Riser, a popular Merchant in Tail,, dega County, Alabama.] Riser's Store, Talladega Cos., Ala. 4 August 16, 1342. ) This is to certify, that I have used Dr. Spencers’ Vegetable Pills in my family for the last six months, and I consider them the best Pills 1 ever used. I was appointed an agent for die sale of them about <ix months ago, at which little the trai oiling agent left me about one hundred boxes, and 1 ha> c sold out every box long since, and could have sold as inany more if they had been left. 1 think every family should keep a supply always on hand. J have neversidd any Pills in my stole that have been liked so well as Spencer's Vegetable Pills. ADAM RISER. [From a very respectable Planter in Washington County, Alabama.] Washington Cos., Ala., March 8, 1843. To Dr. Spencer; Dear Sir—l have used your Vegetable Pills in my family the 1 >st year with great success,and I consid er them the best Pill I ever used. I have made con siderable use of many other popular Pills, but Ia n convinced that yours are superior to any of them. Fot Sick Headache, they are an excellent medicine. For Bowel Complaint, 1 think them the best medi cine in the world, and also for the Bloody celux. I can say to you that I made great use of them last season. 1 had twenty of my blacks sick with the Flux, and 1 administered your Pills freely, and 1 did not loose a single case. My neighbors speak in the highest terms of them. Respectfully yours, JESSE JORDAN. (important cautionl 1 . F | A PROCLAMATION To the Citizens af Georgia: WHEREAS, for several years past, the g-ood Peo ple of this State have been gr.-ally, and very seri ously imposed upon in limes of suffering and sick ness, by being obliircd to pay the enormous price of One Dollar and Fifty Cents for a Box of PILLS, or a Bottle of MIXTURE, to cure CHILLS AND FEI'ERS, and other distressing complaints: Now, therefore, know ye, that an effectual means if reli'f have been discovr red in DR. HULL'S VEGET ABLE FEVER and AGUE, and ANTI-FEVER PILLS; which arc offered lty the Proprietors and their at the low price of only One Dollar per Box— from 25 to 50 per cent, cheaper thau the majori ty of all other medicines for the cute of such com plaints; and as to the comparative safety with which they can be taken, together with the simplicity ol their component parts (w hich nre entirely vegetsbb) and the real value of Hull’s Pills, as adapted to the wants of the community, there can he no longer the least doubt of their great superiority over all otlict medicines, not only in their superior properties ia the safe and speedy cure of Chills and Fevers, but also as a remedy in Fevers of every description. It is particularly worthy of remark, that out of up wards of Twenty Thousand Boxes of these Pills sold in Alabama alone, within the last twelve mont 'S, not a single case has come to the knowledge of the pro prietors, where they have failed to cure the Chill* end Fevers, when they have been used aicordinff to the directions accompanying them. And beside* these pills are no l ‘qnack medicine;" they are tht scientific preparation of expori -need medical met. who, after having prepared this important recipe, most positively declared that from ail the discoveries up to the present time, in medical science, they si*' noway by which they could possibly be improved, or made in any way more effectual in the cure of those complaints for which they are recommended: so that the happy combination of the ingredients and their proportions are such as to produce a medicine which never fails to relieve when relief is at all atiain»ble Upwards of one thousand certificates might here be added, of important cures effected by this inedicinr ; r but it is not pecessary to putdislt theui, as'a single, trial of the Pills is more satisfactory evidence than t volume of printed testimonia's. We would, howe v ' t er, refer the reader to some eight or ten thousand families in this State, who it is thought have experi enced their efficacy, and who would bear ample tes timony of their unrivalled virtues.
