Mr Poppenlieim ottered the following resolu- Re*Jref, That this Convention, placing the luilest contidence ill the sound conservative prin- I cipies that will govern the action of the Cincinnati Convention, recommend to the delegates com- I posing this Convention, the call of public meet ings in their several districts to receive the report of ikeir delegates after their return from Cincin- j nati. and to take such action as will secure the j support of the people of South Carolina to the I nominee for the Presidency of the Cincinnati Democratic Convention. Which was adopted. Mr. Orr being called upon, addressed the Con- | vent ion. Mr. Remolds, from the committee to whom was i referred the resolution to name suitable persons as j delegates for the State at large in the Convention, ; beg leave to report: That they have had the same under careful con sideration. Aware of the responsibility which ! rested upon them, they were anxious to present j .a,:h citizens to the attention of the Convention as j would not only command the entire contidence of | the people at home, but whose distinguished abili- i :v .md services were well calculated to illustrate ! ami maintain the purity of the honor and integrity • tbe principles of the State anywhere, lu their opinion they have eminently succeeded, l’hev j have selected those who, identified as they are j with the best interests of the State, and represen- I taiiresof its various sections, come strongly re- J commended to the judgment of the Convention, ; four committee would, therefore, present for the j hearty sanction aud approval of the Convention as j delegates for the State at large, the following dis- | nnguished sons of South Carolina: Hon. F. W. Pickens, Hon. J. L. Manning, Hon. A. G. Magrath, ; (Jen. J. M. Gad berry. The following gentlemen were selected as dele- ; gates to the Democratic Convention at Cincinnati: j 1. H. 11.

Paltner. Mr. McGowan, from the committee on resolu lions, reported the following resolutions, unani- j niously adopted by his committee, representing j the spirit of various resolutions submitted to ! them: j 1. Resolved, Thai a proper administration of the ! affairs of the Federal Government must depend | upon a careful regard, on the part of each of its i branches, for the limitations upon their powers, j rnosed by the Constitution of the United States, i ana a due respect to the reserved fights of the sev eral States. i. Resolved, That the principle of the equal ’ rights of the States in the view of the Constitu- i timi, and of all laws based upon it, constitutes the j tundamental condition upon which the Union was ! firmed, and can alone be maintained. 3. Resolved, That we recognize in the removal i of the Missouri restriction upon the equal rights J • f the slaveholding States, a practical aeknovvl ; figment of that great principle upon the part of the Federal Government, and deem this a proper occasion to render our support and assistance to the Democratic party in the nomination and elec- j tion of a Presidential candidate, who may repre- j sent the late action of that party upon this ques- j tion, and whose claims of success may be made to • depend, not upon a combination for the spoils of | otlice, but upon a fair presentation of the great i issue which is to be joined between the friends of the equal rights of the States, and a strict construe- i tion of the Constitution, and those who are opposed i to both. 4. Result,d. That it conformity with the request I it our sister State, Georgia, “ to co-operate with j ner” upon this subject, this Convention deems it j it and proper at this time, that tu waiving for the .resent all objection to its organization aud mode | f proceeding, should be represented in the Na- j t onal Democratic Nominating Convention, upon \ condition, in the language of our friends of Geor gia, that said Convention “ shall adopt it platform ■f principles, which shall, amongst other things, include in substance the following propositions : The recognition and adoption of the principles contained in the Kansas and Nebraska act, and in conformity with these principles, that the people | •f Kansas have the right, when the number of their people justifies it, to form a Constitution with i »r without slavery, and be admitted into tlie Union i upon terms of perfect equality with the other j States. 2. That neither the Missouri Compromise t uor any other anti-slavery restriction shall hereaf- 1 ter be extended over any territory of the United j States. “. The prompt and faithful execution of J tbe fugitive slave law, and its prominent continu- j aace upon the statute book. 5. Resolved, That the inflexible devotion to 'uund constitutional principles of Franklin Pierce, j as evinced in his annual messages to Congress, ; ar,d his adherence to the equal rights of all the Slates in sustaining the doctrine of Congressional j nou-intervention and non-interference on the ; question of slavery in the common territories of j the Union, entitle him to the gratitude, contidence and cordial support of all true constitutional Dem- ; ocrats. 4. Resolved, That Franklin Pierce is the first I’hoice of this Convention for President of the : United States, and that thorough identification j in sentiment and opinion with the principles em- ; bodied in the foregoing resolutions is a prere- j 'jnisite, indispensable to our support in any candi date of the Democratic party. Mr. Meetze moved that the vote be taken on the j resolutions separately; when each was passed and i the whole adopted. The Committee rose and reported the resolu- j tion to the President, who made a feeling and j spirited address in response, and On motion of Mr. Wilson, the Convention ad- j jourxed sine die. Her. Jame* E. Evans. We regret to learn, that the ilethodiat C’ougre- i gatiou in this city are likely to lose tho valuable ; services of this estimable and efficient minister. For more than twelve months he has been soli- i cited to take a place in the Ageucv of the Book j Concern, of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, i which i* located at Nashville, Tenn., but has uni* formlv and steadily declined the appointment. At | the late meeting of the College of Bishops ana Book Committee, one of the Agents having re- j signed, he was elected to till the vacancy, but still » dediued, until over-ruled by the unanimous opin ion and advice of the Publishing Board and Bish ops. The former consisting of Messrs. Green, j MeVeirin, Gardner and Hamilton, and tho latter, of Messrs. Soul, Andrews, Paine, Pierce and Early. Whilst this arrangement is painful and embitr- j •ssstng to pastor and people, Mr. Evans will be t wed hv the best wisliesof bis numerous friends, i I'T his happiness and success in the now and verj . important field of labor tLat lias been assigned I him. I« the mean time, we are pleased to be able to >-'ate that arrangements bare been made to till the 'aeancy created bv his removal. Macon Mtuengtr, May 7. Dr. Jackson's Opinion' op Medk ine in Disease. la his •• letters to a Young Physician,’ Dr. Jack wn, of this city, holds the following language with reference to the common idea that disease is only to be cured by medicines in large doses: “It is ; :ur own practice to avoid drugs as much ns possi- i ble ; and I more frequently find it difficult to per- j suade people to abstain from using them, than to induce them to take them. It is a narrow and uu- j .hist view of the practice of medicine to suppose it '< to consist altogether in the use of powerful drugs, I °r of drugs of any kind. Far from it. It is true I that the common question addressed to the physi cian by the patient is, • What shall I take ?’ That j (Uestion implies that there is a drug adapted to j every disease. But the enlightened physician first under* whether the pattern shall take anything. He considers what other modes of relief there are besides pills and draughts. He looks to diet and regimen. I have sometimes had patients say I was doing nothing for them, because 1 had not ordered any medicine to be taken. It may be that the pa- j Uent m such a case thinks that no medicine will relieve the disease, and is right in his opinion. et, something is to be done, but not by medi cine.’'— Boston Post. Boston, May 4. —Dr. John C. Warren, an «mi nent physician in this city, died this morning af ter a brief illness. He was seventy-nine .years of Age. from, the Savannah Republican. Letter from Gov. Broome, i On the Subject of a Railroad Connection between Georgia and Florida. '• The Journal of last evening publishes an inter esting letter from Gov. Broome upon the extension | of the Main Trunk railroad through the territory of Florida. We regret that we have not room for I the letter entire, and must confine ourselves to a synopsis of its contents. I Gov. Broome says, there is no existing charter | sot a railroad in Florida, of which the Main Trunk I Company can avail itself for the extension of its i ™ ad florid* 1 nor is there, indepen | dent of the I ensacola and Georgia Company any j power in the Legislature to grant a charter for j extension. The charter for a road from St. Andrew s l.ay to the Chattahoochee, he maintains I never was a valid charter, having been granted bv ; the Legislature in violation of the Constitution of the State. If originally valid, he says it has lorn/ since been forfeited by non user, and cannot be re j thout an amendment of the Constitution. | 1 lie general charter law of the State, he savs, never had any validity from the beginning, and has been I abandoned by its originators as clearly opposed to ; the Constitution. Gov. Broome proceeds to say that, independent | of the wishes of the Pensacola and Georgia Com ! pany, there is neither a charter nor the power to grant one, which would enable the Main Trunk i Company to reach St. Andrews, or Pensacola bv a line through West Florida. This consent he savs will never be given by that Company aud the citi zens of Florida, should the Main Trunk be located so low down as Clinch, Lowndes and Thomas coun ties, owing to the competition it would bring about with their own works of improvement. He savs, there could be no accommodation of interests un- I der such a location, and our only plan for connect -1 tng such a line with the Gulf would be through : I the Apalachicola River. Gov. Broome, however, thinks this is a plan bv which a union of interests could be effected. That i I plan is set forth in the concluding paragraphs of ; : his letter, as follows: onr road located from Waresboro’to Newton, i would be just about parallel with our line from Ai- ! ligator to Tallahassee, leaving a uniform width of i country of about sixty or sixty-five miles between I j them, to be drained by the two roads. This I | think would be desirable, and I would therefore i J insist us a condition of our union, that your Main ; Trunk shall pass as far North as a line from Waresboro' to Newton. From that point I would i j invite it to descend the Flint river, via Bainbridge ! and from a junction with our main East and West | line on the East bank of the Apalachicola river at , our place of crossing, which will probably be i within ten miles of the junction, if it is not at the I ; junction itself. Such slight additional legislation, ' if anvj as may be found necessary to conform the ! charters of the respective companies to such a union could, I think, be readily obtained, andshould i I the companies fail to procure amendments, the | connection and crossing can be made at the jutic- h tion without them. As a consideration for such a i ' connection, 1 would insist substantially upon such ■ i il location as I have indicated, and a subscription i i to the capital stock of the Pensacola and Georgia ! j road of six hundred thousand dollars, to be ex | pended in constructing the main line West of the } junction to Pensacola, and one hundred thousand i to be expended on the Branch to St. Andrews Bay. I 1 hese amounts, with such additional subscriptions j as can be obtained in this State, and the aids pro vided by our Internal Improvement bill, would se • cure a vigorous prosecution and early completion > of the entire lines to Pensacola and St. Andrews. Tlie increase of distance from Waresboro’ over a connection with Pensacola byway of the Pensaco la and Montgomery road, will be'found to be less than ten miles. Your part of the cost of construc tion from the Chattahoochee would be less than one-fourth that of tlie other route. Your Gulf connections would be better, and both enterprises would be relieved of a withering competition and destructive rivalry. “Another argument in favor of such u location is found in the fact that we desire to connect St. Marks with the South-western road bv way of Bainbridge. Your Main Trunk, located as I have j suggested, would soon be joined at Newton bv the i South-western road from Albany. A connection with Bainbridge from Tallahassee would then op erate as a practical extension of that road to the Gulf at St. Marks, and thus the construction of one road would secure the extension of two, and add largely to the business of all. “On such a basis l think concert of action at tainable, but with u more southerly location feel confident we can never harmonize.’’ From the Boston Daily Chronicle. The .Votes and Queries Burlesqued.' Rotes and (faeries, Ro. 91*D. —“ Tomnoddy" asks i where is Palmyra, and why is it always spoken of j as being mined ?” Palmy ra is in the State of New : York. It was once a very flourishing place, hav- i ing as many as seven or eight hundred inhabitants; but the construction of the Middlesex Canal, un der the auspices of the celebrated Sir Henry Clin ton, led to its ruin. It was while swimming across this canal that Leander Snooks lost his life and the j name of Hell’s Point was given to the place by his i indignant contemporaries. Palmyra was so called because there were no palm trees within a thou- j sand miles of it, in strict accordance with Ameri- ■ can usage. “The Isles of Grease." mentioned by an English poet ol the name of Byrnm are Nantucket and j Martha’s Vineyard, once famous for their success : in the w haling business. The observation of the j poet, that “all except their sun is set,” is a deli- j cate way of reminding them that their shining glories arc vanished, and that they are reduced to j the sad necessity of contenting themselves with ' mere daylight. “Tbe Merry Wives of Windsor” were the wives j of Windsor, discoverer of the famous soap. That j he should have had two wives at the same time, j shows that Morrnonism flourished in England in the reign of Queen Elizabeth ; and that they were j merry shows that two women did once upon a i time live in the saute house without quarreling. But then they tuav have made poor Windsor tin - comfortable enough. Dr. Johnston wrote the following exquisite I lines : “Rub-a-dub-dub, three maids in a tub, And who do you think was there? . The butcher, the baker, The candlestick maker. All going down to the fair. Gen. Wolfe, who was killed at the siege of 1 Pondicherry three hundred years before Christ, said, in reading this verse, that he would rather have written it than have won tbe battle of Bun ker Hill. The Duke of Wellington said he would uot. Celsus discovered steamboats. Newton invent ed the hobbv-liorse. Tailgates were discovered ; bv Fulton when he was sweeping the heavens with ; Lord Rose’s telescope in search of the planet I Aquarius. The Roman Comiqm was the produc- ; j tion of Bosseut, Massilon, and Bourdalone, who I ; also wrote Brantone’s Vies des Damns Gallantes , j in the intervals of their pious labors. The following lines are often quoted, and we i should he glad to learn by whom they were writ ten. Can anv of our readers tell us the name of I their respective authors? i “To be or not to be, that is the question.” - “The curlew tolls the knell of parting day.” | “ There came to the beach a poor exile of Erin!” “ Hurrah for the bonnets of blue!" “ A man’s a inau for a’l that.” “Yankee Doodle came to town.” “ The Lord into his garden came.” “Soots wha hae wi’ Wallace bled.” " Know ye the land of the cypress and myrtle ?” “Truth crushed the earth shall rise again.” “And Freedom shriek’d as Kosciusko fell.” “ O’er the glad waters of the dark blue sea.” “ Should aiild acquaintance be forgot!” “ lint Linden saw another sight.” “ Alone on the banks of the (lark rolling Danube.” j “O, Love! in such u wilderness as this!” “ Fanned by Conquest’s crimson wing.” “We frolic while ’tis May.” “Sweet Auburn, lovelies! village of the plain.” “Some weak inglorious Milton here may rest.” “Full many a gem of purest ray serene." “ And read their history in a nation’s eyes.” “ A vouth to fortune and to .tine unknown.” A handsome sum will be owed to any learned ! and ingenious person who shall make known the names'of the authors of the above lines, or of any or of either of them. It is a solemn duty to rescue the names of great poets from the dust of obli- j non, and to let the world know to whom it is in debted fie some of the noblest sources of enjoy-; ment. Hence our offer made with our accustomed ] liberality, and without regard to expense. Liquid for Coloring the Hair Black.—Alexar- j der Reed, of Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, having seen j it stated in the Sclentin'*. American, in answer to a \ c that we were not acquainted with : •mV liquid that would color the hair black, and not stain the skin, gives the following as a receipt j tout will do it: . j “Take one part of bav rum, three parts of olive i o u U nd one part of good brandy by measure, and wash ihe hair with the mixture* every morning. | hi a short time the use of it will make the hair a j beautiful black, without injuring it in the least, i We know that the pure olive oil and good bran dv in equal parts, make an excellent hair wash but have never known it to color the hair. The above mixture may color the hair, but we would not infer from its nature that it would. There can be no doubt, however, of its being atonic of much superiorcharacter to many that is sold at an ex trar again price. The articles must be mixed in a bottle, and always shaken well before they are ap plied. It is not an easy matter to obtain either pure olive oil or French brandy, to prepaie such a mixture, but we suppose that the above receipt re fers to the common article sold by druggists.

St. Louis, May 5. —A letter trom Westport, Kan sas, savs:—Hopes arc entertained that Sheriff Jones will recover. Col. Sumner arrived at Lawrence on tlie 25th ult., with Ins w hole command. Governor Robin son charged the act of firing into the soldiers tents on the pro-slavery party ; but Col. S. denied this, and said if the Governor would leave the matter to him, lie would soon settle it. Stringfellow demanded to appear on the behalf of Kansas before the Congressional Committee, eith er iruperson or by counsel, to introduce testimony and examine witnesses. Mr. Howard, chairman i of the committee, refused the demand. The Deputy Sheriff of Douglas county was hav ing writs issued to arrest one hundred citizens of Lawrence, charged with the commission of crimes under the Territorial laws. The troops will re main at Lawrence until all the arrests are made i aud the parties are sent to Lecompte. Important Trial. We learu that a case of more than ordinary interest is in order for trial before the Supreme Court now in session at Worcester. j The facts present some new' features in financial settlements. It appears that a debtor, who could 1 not meet his engagements, made a statement of ; his affairs, and a conditional settlement was agreed j upon, that each creditor would take fifty per cent, on his claim, provided all the creditors should be* j come parties to the agreement. It is stated that i one of the firms in this citv who signed the agree- j ment to take fifty per cent., got seventy-five per ; cent, in settlement. Subsequently this concern | found themselves bankrupt, when their affairs were placed in the hands of assignees—men of the highest probity of character—who, discovering the transaction, now bring an action to recover tlie un- i paid twenty-five per cent. Several other creditors who had been induced to agree to a settlement at ' fifty percent., now “join in'the request,” and have brought an action for their unpaid fifty per cent, j It is said that it is expected m all the compromise 1 settlements some one or more of the creditors get a “lion’s share," and should this case be decided favorably for the plaintiffs it will open a wide door for future litigation. —Boston Journal. Letters Sent to Hotels.—About two thousand letters were lately returned to the l’wst Office from one «f the principal Broadway Hotels, having j been received there through the mails from every section of the Union, and not called for by the par ties to whom they were addressed. It appears that i \ these letters have been accumulating years, and j they no doubt embrace many of value and impor ! tance, long since given up as lost, and in connec- j tion with which the Post Office Department has ' been severely censured. A gentleman of New Orleans, for iustuuce, going | North, savs to his friends that lie shall stop at the j | St. Nicholas Hotel, New York. But on arriving j here he changes his mind, and stops at some other < 1 house. His letters are addressed to him at tlie St. Nicholas, and he never receives them. It is a duty which every landlord owes to his guests and to the Post Office Department, to return j all letters not called for within a reasonable time, , ; to the Post Office, ill order that they may be deliv ered from there, or at least be sent to the dead let j ter office at Washington, from whence, if valuable, they are quite sure to find their way back to the writers in due time. Hints for the Presidential Election The lowa Sentinel says the .Spring elections in that State indicate a Democratic majority of about three thousand. Michican has gone Democratic by a still larger majority. The Legislature of Maine on ! the 10th ult., passed resolutions condemning the ! sectional resolutions of the previous Legislature, ] and approving the principle of the Nebraska law. j In New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Connecticut, \ the Democrats have gained thousands within a ■ year, and lack but little in either State of a major- j ity of all the votes. Next November will very i probably supply the deficiency. Nearly the whole i South is Democratic; and in short, the prospects of the Democracy in reference to the approaching j Presidential Election, are excellent. The Black j Republicans, as well as the Know Nothings, are i becoming disheartened ; and the Old Line Whigs, j so far as they have co-operated with either of these ! factions, are hauling off, and preparing to set up ; for themselves. State Conventions which have re- i cently been held in Kentucky and Maryland, take ; this ground decidedly. Most of them had rather j the Democrats would succeed, than either of the j factions above named. The Tariff question, the ! Bunk question, and every other important ques- i turn, which formerly divided the Old Line Whigs ; , from the Democrats, is now either adjusted or oo- j \ solete—while on the question of Abolition Section i alism, which is now uppermost iti the public mind, | the Old Line Whigs and the Democrats are agreed.

RICHARDS A SON. | (General GEORGIA MEDICATED SOAP. j The Empire State of the South .still ahead in her Improvements. IIIS article wi* compare favora- — it jr - M bly with any of like character in the known world. I find that by putting it in the form of a Soap it gives it a decided advan tage over any Balm, Salve, Liniment, .eSBUSv, or Ointment'that can be made for the cure of dis eases herein enumerated ; it also prevents its vir tues from being impaired by age or climate, and renders it very convenient for use. Its action is prompt, and at the same time harm less, as it contains no mercurial or other prepara tion injurious to the patient. This.article, there fore, being highly medicated, will cure Ulcers, Cuts, Flesh Wounds, Ring and Tetter Worm, Piles, Erysipelas, Scald Head, Itch, Nettle Rash, Salt Rheum, Chilblain, Prickly Heat, Scurvy, Sore Byes, Bone Felons, Old Sores, Sore Nipples, Ac., extract seurf and dandruff from the head, thereby preventing premature baldness. It is also one of the best remedies for Burns or Scalds, and will cure the Fistula and Scratches in horses; extract tar, paint and grease from clothing, and is also a superior dentrince to the teeth. For’shaving soap, it forms a rich lather, softening the beard, and curing such sores as may be on the face. 111 the cure of all the enumerated diseases, and j particular old sores, this soap has proved a balm j ludeed, by its wonderful healing powers. I can procure certificates innumerable were it necessary, but believing that a single cake is only requisite’ to prove its eflicacy as above stated, and wishing to avoid everything like humbuggery, I leave it to those who will give it a fair trial, not doubting they will then declare this to be the ns plus ultra of the age in the healing art. Prepared by C. Pemble, Augusta, Ga., and sold by 1). B. PLUMB A CO., Druggists. Price 23 cents. ‘ ap2 EVERY family should at once procure a bot: tie of the great Arabian remedy for mail and beast, called H. G. FARRELL’S ARABIAN LINI MENT. It allays the most intense pains in a few minutes, restores the synovial fluid or joint water, and thus cures stiff joints; it penetrates the flesh to the bone, relaxes contracted cords, cures rheu matism and palsied limbs of twenty years’ stand ing ; also, tumors, swelled neck, enlargement of the glands, and is the best medicine for ailments of cattle ever discovered, curing sweeny, spavins, splint, and all diseases which require an internal application. Sun Pains of ten pears’ standing cured hy H. O. hirreU’s Arabian liniment. Mr. 11. G. Farrell —Dear Sir: I had been af flicted with the “Sun Pain” for the last ten vears, and could never get relief except by bleeding; but by the use of 11. G. Farrell’s Arabian Liniment, applied over the temples about three or four times a day, it was entirely removed, and I have felt nothing of it since. I went into the stable one night, to apply it to a horse’s sore leg, and being very lame he stumbled and fell against my legs, crushing and bruising them so badly that they turned black as mv hat, rendering them powerless. I applied your Liniment, and was well enough in a few days to go about again as usual. I also crushed my linger in a shocking manner, by letting a back log fall upon it; your Liniment soon healed it up, though. JOHN B. M’GEE. LaSalle Precinct, Peoria Co., 111., Feb. 6, 1849. [ Esq. Barker, of New Canton , 111., »ay»: 1 Mr. H. G. Farrell’s Arabian Liniment has cured some had cases here, which every other remedy had failed in ; one was a white swelling and con tracted cords in the leg of a boy twelve years old. The leg had withered away, and was so contracted that lie had 10 use of it. Three doctors had tried their skill upon it in vuin, und he was fast sinking to the grave, when the boy’s father was induced to try H. G. Farrell’s Arabian Liniment Before the first bottle was used up, he came to Mr. B.’s store, aud the first words he said were, “ Mr. Barker, I want all that Liniment you have in the store; the one bottle 1 got did my bov more good than all that had ever been done before." That boy is now well and hearty, ancl has free use of his legs. It is good for sprains, bruises, cuts, burns and swellings. Zook out for Counterfeits ! The public are cautioned against another coun terfeit, which has lately made its appearance, called W. B. Farrell’s Arabian Liniment, the most dan gerous of all the counterfeits, because his having the name of Farrell, many will buy it in good faith, without the knowledge that a counterfeit ex ists, and they will perhaps only discover their error when the spurious mixture has wrought its evil effects. The genuine article is manufactured only by H. G.

He prefers to let others speak its praise, and therefore introduces the following certificates, from two planters, well aud favorably known in the community in which they reside. Ho might in troduce many others, hut the Plow Stock will speak for itself whenever examined. JAMES B. MELL. Riceboro’, Liberty county, Ga. This is to certify that I have, with my own hundq, thoroughly tested ihe newly invented Plow Stock of James "B. Mell, Esq. In point of simplicity and perfection, I have never seen or used its equal. In it is combined every thing that I could wish in a Plow Stock, and it,’ in my opinion, is the cheapest aud the best that has ever been offered to the pub lic. 1 speak from having used it with my own hands, t was raised to follow the plow, and think that I know how one ought to run. I would cheer fully thank any one, who will thoroughly try it, to point out to me one single fault in it. It is easier upon the horse and the plowman than any that l have ever used. * The principle upon which you regulate the depth of the Plow is so simple, and yet so perfect, as to commend itself to any one ; and the Stock is adapt ed to any kind of Plow Hoe. It is, moreover, just as light as auy could desire it to be. I would re commend to anv and all, if they wish the best and cheapest Plow Stock, without hesitation to get Mr. Janies B. Mell’s. D. W. W ilso.v. Peutield, Ha., April 15, 1856. In companv with several others, I, this dav, wit nessed the trial of Mr. James B. Mell’s Plow- Stock, by Mr. D. W. Wilson, and cheerfully state that all present were fully satisfied'that it does everything i as stated above. ’ I would, moreover, state that I ! have been using them on my farm for several months, and every day serves to confirm me in the I opinion of the superiority of Mr. Mell’s Plow Stock i to all others now in use.
