New Mode op planting Swp.et Potato Nines, Level Lind or in Bed.— Editor Southern Cul ’ - On the 20th dav of Julvlast, I commenced -'■tmg potato vines in the following manner: “ground planted, was rvp stubble, badly plowed -m harrowed, and verv clavev : ‘ made furrows with a bull tongue plow four ' tpart; laid two vines along the whole length tae furrow, then covered with a plow about tee or five inches deep, running a furrow on each Thev soon began to come up, and, although ground was dry and cloddy, made a verv good • a !, with the exception of two rows, which were -i i'-d with young and tender vines in the mid •'! the day, which were scorched by the sun '*• they could he covered by the plow. On the “3 of August 1 bedded up ihree rows, 'that is K ~ out in the middles, but the ground being dry and hard, I merely harrowed the balance ii-e'p down the grass; a spell of wet weather ' 'Tg in, caused the vines to run over the ground i they were worked no more.

Ernst. layette co., Texas, 1356, To some of our readers, doubtless, the legend o “Peeping Tom, of Coventry,” will be new, while j others may never have chanced to meet Tenny -1 son’s beautiful version of it: The Lady Clodiva.

She told him of their tears, - nd prayed him, “If they pav this tax thev I starve. | Whereat he stared, replying—half-amazed | * 011 w, »uld not let your little finger ache i For such as these!” “But I would die,” said she. j ‘augned, a, l( i swore by Peter and bv Paul; filliped at the diamond in her ear ; | ‘Ch ! ay, ay, ay, you talk !” “Alas 1” she said, But prove me what it is I would not do.” ; From a heart as rough as Esau’s hand, He answered: “Ride you naked through the town, j -^ nd repeal it!” and nodding—as in scorn— j parted, with great strides, among his dogs. So, left alone, the passions of her mind. As winds from all the compass shift and blow, : Made war upon each other for an hour, ’Till pity won. She sent a herald forth, I And bade him cry—with sound of trumpet—all 1 lie hard conditions ; but that she would loose The People; therefore as thev loved her well, From then till noou no foot should pace the street, No eve look down, when passing; but that all Should keep within—ddbrshut and window barred. Then fled she to inmost bower, and there i Unclasped the wedded eagles of her belt— The grim Earl’s gift; but ever, at a breath, She lingered—looking like a summer moon Halt dipped in cloud—anon she shook her head And showered the rippled ringlets to her knee ; Cneltjd herself in haste; adown the stair Stole on ; and, like a creeping sunbeam, slid From pillar unto pillar, until she reached The gate-way—there she found her palfrey trapt In purple, blazoned with armorial gold. Then shone she forth, clothed with ehastitv ; The deep air listened round her as she rode, ' Aud a'l the low wind hardly breathed, for fear. T he little wide-mouthed heads upon the spout Had cunning eves to see ; the burking cur Made her cheek flame; her palfrey’s foot-fall shot Light horrors through her pulses; the blind walls Here full of chinks and holes; and overhead Fantastic gables, crowding, stared, but she Not less through all b r >re up till, last, she saw The white-flowered elder thicket from the field Gleam through the Gothic archway in the wall. Then she rode back, clothed on with chastity ; And one low churl, compact of thankless earth,’ The fatal by-word of all years to come, Boring a little auger-hole, in fear Peeped ; but his eyes, before they had their will, Were shriveled into darkness in his head. And drooped before him! So the powers, who wait On noble deeds, canceled a sense misused; And she, that knew not, passed; and all at once, \S itli twelve great shocks of sound, the shameless noon Was dashed and hammered from an hundred towers, One after one; but even then she gained Her bower,“whence rising, robed and crowned, To meet her lord, she took the tax away, And built herself an everlasting name. Distressing and Singular Suicide. A man named Cornelius C. McAcuffk, a per iodical dealer, committed suicide in New York on Friday night, bv taking a large dose of bitter al monds. At the coroner’s inquest the following letters, among others, came to light: New York, March 31st, 1856. To Coroner Connery: Dear Sir: Believing that a man has the right of disposing of his own as he may deem proper, provided he does so without injury to others, and when he has no one for whom he is bound to pro vide, 1 have determined to retire from this world, and this communication is to prevent any misap prehensions about my death ; no one is aware of m.i intentions, lie through whom I have procur ed the poison, 1 have deceived; lie is therefore al together innocent. l’he reason of my determination is simply this, that some years ago 1 formed an attachment, un fortunately “loving not wisely, but too well.” The object of my idolatry proved unworthy of inv af fections, but this could not alter me, nor weaken the spell that bound me to her. 1 have used every exertion in my power to obliterate her image, but in vain. 1 find after change of scenes, Ac., noth ing can effect the purpose, and it is altogether out of the question that 1 could ever love another wo man. lam indeed desolate! No home ! Nor anything resembling it. The four walls of a bed-room when 1 retire at night—-what object then to toil away? Fruitless, unproductive, what good am I to myself or society ? None, only in somebody’s way, there fore f shall retire. 1 well know how my friends will be horrified at this step, as they will regard it in the light of “living in the face of Providence,” “going into the presence of God uncalled, unßent for.” 1 respect their ideas, although I don’t coin cide with them. The great Creatorof the universe knows the secrets of all hearts and “Sees as equal Lord of all, a hero perish or a sparrow fall.” I desire to be buried in the plainest manner, and at as little cost as possible. I cannot conclude without expressing the deep sense of obligation ! am under to Messrs. Coleman and Stetson, of the Astor House, for their great kindness to me, and liiv acknowledgments are due and are hereby free ly given to all the employees of that establishment; since I first entered it 1 have received nothing bin kindness. I have written a statement of my affairs as well ns my excited state will permit, and 1 doubt not that my assets will produce more than any debts of mine in this country will amount to. This state ment 1 shall address to Mr. Butler, hut 1 don’t wish it to he published, as it could only gratify idle cu liositv ; for i presume this letter will answer all the ends of public justice in reference to the cause of my death, Ac. In conclusion,! beg to say that / am at peace with aU mankind , and if I have any euennes 1 freelv forgive them, and hope I shall be forgiven by those I may have injured. I never did a deliberate wrong that 1 am aware of, although I am aware that, a weak fellow, I have been wanting in firmness to say “no.” Wishing you every happiness, anil asking noth ing of the world but the charity of its silence. I am, dear sir, yours respectfully, Cornelius C. McAuliffe. Additional by the Persia. New York, April 2s.— Austria intends occupy* : ing every corner of Italy where political excite ment can be got up in excuse for events which arc ;of daily increasing importance. Additional Aus trian troops are ordered to remain in the States now occupied by Austrian forces. The garrisons in Lombardy are to be increased, in fact Austria is already at war with Piedmont, though their ar mies are not face to face, and a struggle cannot be ; long delayed. Austria will, however, try to post pone a quarrel in the field until the policy of France and England towards Italy is declared, the work iof reconciling the affairs’of that country having ) commenced in Parts. The Emperor of Austria has signed the treaty. I When the ratifications have been made public, a thanksgiving will be proclaimed throughout the country. It was reported in London, on the 19th inst., that-Lord Palmerston and Mr. Labouchere were about to retire from the Ministry, and that tha lion. Didney Herbert and Sir James Graham would take charge of the Government. It is believed, j however, to be an unfounded rumor.

THIRTY-FOURTH CONGRESS —FIRST SESSION. II AsnixGTON, April 23.— Senate.— Mr. Hunter re ported back the deficiency bill with the disagree ing amendments of the two Houses, and moved that the Senate insist on its amendments, anu ask a committee of conference. Mr. Pugh opposed the Washington water works appropriation, and moved that the Senate recede from that amendment. The motion was not agreed to—yeas 7, nays 32 —and the motion to appoint a committee of" con ference was then carried. Mr. Hamlin introduced a bill to incorporate the Atlantic and Paoilic. Union Railroaa Compa n\■ He said this bill had been seut him bv an in dividual whom he did not know, with a requesi that it should be offered as a substitute for all oth er Pacific railroad hi] 1 .-, but as lie did not think proper to do tiiai, he introduced it as a separate bill, and moved its reference to the Pacific railroad special committee. He read some extracts from the letter accompanying the bill, in which its au thor says it is the most important bill that has ever been presented in Congress since the adoption - f the American Constitution, and whatever party shall first adopt it will be sure to succeed in the Presidential campaign. The reading of these ex tracts occasioned much laughter. Mr. Weller thought there was no need of refer ring the bill, as the committee has already re ported. Several Senators exclaimed, “Oh, yes, let it go.” Mr. Vi eller—Well, if he sends it there, I will pledge myself that none of the committee will ever read it. (Laughter.) Mr. Brown spoke on the Kansas question, after which Mr. Benjamin obtained the floor, and the bill was postponed until Friday next. Mr. Stuart moved to take up the river and har bor bills. After some debate the motion was re jected—yeas l!t, nays 22. The Naval Board question was resumed, and Mr. Biggs gave way to allow Mr. Bell, of Tennes see, to make some remarks relative to Lieutenant Maury. Before he had concluded, the Senate went into Executive session and shortly after ad journed. Horsk.—Mr. Nichols made an explanation re specting his vote for Mr. Banks as Speaker, called forth by the recent speech of his colleague, at Hamilton, Ohio. Ho denied that the printing and binding question influenced his vote against his colleague, and for Mr. Banks. Mr. Campbell disavowed having intended to east the least imputation on Mr. N'ichol's integ rity, hut, at the same time, lie believed that the printing question delayed the organization of the* House. Mr. Ready asked Mr. Campbell sundry questions with reference to what the latter, in his speech at Hamilton, said about the southern Americans in connection with the Speakership. Mr. Campbell replied that no formal proposition was made by members of that party, but it was suggested to him privately, by persons not pre tending to represent it, that if he would consent to endorse the twelfth section of the Philadelphia platform, the probal>ility|was that lie would acquire strength for the Speakership from that quarter. Mr. Morgan objected to further explanations. The Senate bill to remit duties on goods, wares and merchandize, destroyed by lire, was taken up. The House, by five majority, that sustained the de cision of the chair add the hill did not make an ap propriation of money, and therefore need not, un der the rules, be reported to the committee of the whole on the state of the Union. (Several days ago this decision was reversed). After an unsuccessful motion to make the bill the special order for the {third Tuesday in May, il tyus sent to the committee of the whole on the state of the Union. The House passed the Senate bill amendatory of the act of l sv>, establishing the Circuit Court for the district of California. Adjourned. COMM ERCIA I a. Augusta Market, May 1,1 I*. M.

V, . S, Sheriff C. A TO THE CITIZENS OF AUGUSTA. t would can your attention to mv new pre para.ion, known as “BLISS’ DYSPEPTIC REM .vIEDY.” This medicine is anew medical com inund, and is the result of long practice, exten sive observation, and close study of all diseases having their origin in a disordered state of stom ach, and adapted to every stage of these diseases, f rom their incipient symptom to those in which they nave assumed a Chronic form; and although but yet in its infancy, has gained a notoriety and repu tation very seldom attained by any “ patent” pre paration. This Remedy is no quack nostrum, got up to gull the people, and fleece them out of their money, but a medicine, which, together with the treatment prescribed to accompany the taking of the medicine, has the sanction of years of success ful application in private practice, and will not fail to cure the most stubborn case of Dyspepsia, no matter of how long standing, or how severe it may be, providing the directions are closely followed out. It was not suddenly hit vpon, nor dreamed -of, but is the accretion of facts and experiments collected in the daily rounds of duty as a practis ing Physician, and is given to the public in a popu lar form, in the hope, as in the belief, that it will not fail in giving relief to the sufferer from Dys pepsia, and all other diseases having their origin lu the stomach, in any instance when thedirections are properly attended to. It has received the high est encomiums from the first physicians throughout the North and South—it has been tried, recom mended and certified to by some of the most emi nent jurists and statesmen in the country, all of which shall appear in due time. Physicians of large practice are now using it and relying upon it alone in these diseases in their practice, and re commend it to their friends as worthy their best confidence. It is entirely dissimilar to any and every prepar tion of the kind now before the people. The ori ginator, entertaining views and opinions somewhat at variance with the prescribed notions among medical men generally, as regards tlie nature of these diseases, has in this preparation brought to gether medical agents of known utility and worth, in the form of a new combination, making a com pound altogether and entirely new, and one that will not fail in effecting a cure, if directions are followed and persevered in. The undersigned is well aware that the same encouragement has been given, and the same promises made, over and over again, by manufacturers of patent medicines, as regards tlieir different preparations, and as vouch er for the curative qualities of this preparation, and for the purpose also of giving additional weight to whatever he may say as regards this new preparation, he would beg to refer to the fact, that lie is the originator, manufacturer and proprietor of the well known “Jacob’s Cordial,” the cura tive properties of which in Cholera, Dysentery and Diarrhea, are now being proclaimed by thousands in every section of the country, and as being all that he ever said of it. Tin- undersigned does not profess to be a philan thropist, or that he is uninfluenced by considera tions of pecuniary profit in placing the Remedy he fore the people, but he iA>c know that while lie max be realizing a pecuniary profit, fellow-sufferers will realize that which is of more worth to them than the wealth of India. Dyspepsia, like Gout, may he said to be a fash ionable disease; it more readily than any other, in various of its forms, and to a greater extent, find its victims in the wealthy and aristocratic circles, especially in large cities, and its insidious work ings are often the real, though undiscovered cause of the sallow cheek, the dull, heavy eyes, and gen eral inertia- indisposition to either mental or phy sical effort, which are erroneously attributed to other causes. Scenes of luxurious ease are not, however, alone the haunts of this destroyer of the health and en joyment of myriads of mankind. Other conditions of life there are in which it revels oxer faded and emaciated forms, and dispirited and despairing hearts. The sedentary labors of the counting house, and the study, not less than the intense ex citement and irregularities of busier occupations of mercantile life, are promotin' of it; each daily adding to the number of its subjects. But our (that is the physician und his patients) object is not, having once discovered the disease, so much to trace it back to its source, as to remove it from where we find it, and to establish a healthful and ! vigorous action of the various organs, by use ot the proper agencies, and to restore to their natural functions these organs which had been perverted bv disease. For all NERVOUS SUFFERERS, This preparation, with itsaocompanyingdircctions for treatment, are peculiarly applicable; and if the former is taken and >i. hi r closely complied with it will not fail of curb' . Also, to those stiff- vom DISEASE OF THE LIVER, tt is parti u 1 c enoiub-d, and most admiral lv adapted.

In using this Remedy, i-s .n- It ial effects may be toorted for at once, i will begin to relieve, an'd the patient will know that recov-ry has commenc ed within forty-eight or seventy-two hours, or, at farthest, by the time he has taken the contents of one package. To those trying the effect of this Remedy, I would propoed a test that will demon strate to the patient that he is being benefitted. If it is used in a case of Dyspepsia, where pain or other distressing feelings attend the taking of food upon the stomach, I suggest that the patient, after using the Remedy for three or four days, and following closely the other directions, partake of some articles of food which he had known pre vtously to disagree with him, and he will discover that it no longer produces the disagreeable effect. Sufferers from Dyspepsia, nervous sufferers, inva lids from disease of the Liver, and from broken, worn out and debilitated constitutions, try one package; follow out closely all the accompanying directions, and prove the truth or falsity of what I have said of the Remedy. I would, however, remark, that unless you determine to take the medi cine and follow out all directions ns given, I pre fer you would let it alone entirely, and not buy it; preferring much rather to go without your money than have you take it without deriving benefit.
