To the Farmers of Terrell.
We publish something on the fourth page
of this paper especially calculated to do you
good if you are at all willing to be benefitted;
and now that tbe .State has done and is do
ing so much to enhance your interests, will
you not do something for yourselves ?
Tbe subject of improved agriculture, the
diversification of crops, fcc.. is one that is en'
gaging the minds of leading men everywhere,
and bow is it possible to attain the desired
object, without the hearty co-operation of all.
Hence tbe importance of agricultural societies
It has been said that when two men ride on
one horse one must lide behind. It was es
tablished by that Being who made the world
that tbe producer, or Agriculturist should
ride before, and bold the reins of the com
mon horse. And such was evidently the
oondition of the producer and consumer in
tbe early ages of the world. As dhese com
panions were compelled to travel together,
they enjoyed for a time the order of nature :
but when both stopped to rest in the early
and dark ages, the consumer seized the reins
and mounted before, and the producer has
been compelled to ride behind ever since l
Now, this state of things should not exist,
aud a state of peace, order and prosperity
will never exist on earth while it continues.
The following suggestions on this subject
arefiomanold agricultural magazine, and
we ask a careful perusal of them, aud trust
that the farmers of Terrell may determine to
have a live, prosperous and beneficial soci
ety :
We now call upon you to begin she reme
dv; to attempt a cure for an evil which has
long afllcted your whole body, and to remoe
a burden which has long oppressed yon.
Many of your brothers and producers say to
you that the remedy is easy, aud will do ii -
justice to no one It is plain and may be
seen by you all. It is only unitedly to say
wo will govern ourselves, and not be gev
orned; we will ride before on the common
horse, or we will travel in company no ions
ger 1 We will say to those who are neither
producers nor manufacturers, God made men
to work six portions of time out of the sev
en of Lis active existence j and that when
he was not in want of so many, or much of
tbe fruit of labor as at present, God placed
him in the garden of this world, not to study
politics nor metaphysics, butte be an agri
cultui ist.
It is not for wont of intelligence among the
farmors, but for want of confidence in the
knowledge which they have; a confidence
which alone can be obtain and by associating
with their fellows, and participating in tho
bnsiuess of deliberate assembles, that they
find theraselvos neglected. It is a known
fact, that a tr.au lost in the wilderness, and a
long time addicted to solitude, will flee front
every man that approaches him ! It is this
principle of our nature, that makes us ima
gine 'Aiat others are superior to ourselves, ula
til we become acquainted with their weak
ness : and this can only be done by associat
ing with them, where we shall soou find that
their talents are diminished by comparison ;
and soue confidence will bo iucrea-ed by a
discovery ol your strength.
In order that you may be united, you must
meet and associate one with another. You
must form yourselves into a society, and en
joy a mutual interchange of thoughts and
opinions. You certainly can uuite in mutu
ally aiding each other by a communication of
the results of your experience in farming;
and union of sentiment and opinion in one
thing, will naturally pave the way for union
in many things t and the effect of union in
your agricultural pursuits will not fail to
make you sensible ot the importance of un
ion in the business of vindicating yoar rights.
Is ia by oomiug together and eeeing the
great improvements in husbandry, and the
adaption to use of the different improve
ments that all can be effectually benefitted
by them ; and it ia by coming together and
conversing on the best n:etdonß ot cultiva
ting the earth, and adapting particular
grains to particular 60ils, and ascertaining
the most valuable seeds, that the knowledge
of the few may become universal among
you. Publications may do much, but they
caunot do all that is desirable to be deue in
this respect. Many subjects of valuable in
formation cannot be so placed on paper as to
bo profitable to you all; and what is * an ‘ ed
canuol be known to those who might be dts
nosed to unite, without such personal inter
views as may be had in societies such as
those which have been formed in your coun
ties, and in which we invite you to take a
part. _________

Special Notices,
A Chapter of Tacts.
.Space is valuable in a newspaper, and it is
therefore proposed iu this advertisement to
condense it variety of facts, Important to the
publie, into a small compass. Those facts re
fer to Hosteller's Stomach Hitters—what that
celebrated medicine is, and what it will do.
In the first place, t ic«, the article is a stim
ulant, tonic and alterative, consisting ot a
combination of an absolntely pure spirituous
agent with the most valuable medicinal vege
table substances that Botanic research has
placed at the disposal of the chemist and the
physician. These ingredients are compound
ed with great care, and in such propoi lions
ns to produce a preparation which invigor
ates without exciting the genoral system,"and
tones, regulates aud coutrols the stomach,
the bowels, the liver, aud the minor secretive’ I
organs.
What this great restorative will do must
be gathered from what it has done. Tlie
case of dyspepsia, or any other form of indi
gestion, iu which it has been persistently ad
ministered without etieclingu radical cure, is
vet to be heard from, aud the same may be
said of billious disorders, intermitted fever,
nervous affections, general debility, constipa
tion, sick headeache, mental disabilities to
whice the feeble are so subject. It purifies
all the fluids of tlie body, iucludiugtlic blood,
and the gentle stimulus which it imparts to
the nervous system is not succeeded by the
slightest reaettou. This is a chapter of facts
which readers, for their owu sakes, should
mark and remember.

MOORE COTTON Cl
i
* ■*—— f
Established in 1852—Formerly at Double Wells. ■
ALSO, A GENUINE PATTERN OF
The Griswold Gin .
THE UNDERSIG NED, having resumed the manufacture of tho above Gio,
*■ pr< pose to make it what it was before tho war—“ The favorite of the
South." Our work stands upon its merits, anti we think this a sufficient guar
antee. Via have secured the services of some of tho best mechanical talent
in the Northern shops, in addition to somo of tho best workmen from the shop
of tho late Samuel Griswold Mr. Cbas. Gardner, who served eight years
apprenticeship under E Carver & Cos.. at East Bridgewater, Mass., and who
was employed as Superintendent of tho Double Wells shop, from the com
mencement of tbe manufacture ol the Moore Cotton Gin, until its suspension,
is again at Lis post, aud will give oach Giu his personal inspection before it
leaves the shop.
In calling the attention of planters to our Cotton Gins, wo desire that they
should notice the improvements we offer, which aro substantially as follows ;
A. PORTA BLE ROLL BOX,
For obtaining any inclination of the Gin Rib or Grate, is used ; tho object of
which is to improve in the quantity giuDed, lesson the quantity and improve
the quality of lint. Also, to giu damp or wet cotton ; to alter the picking or
separating tbe lint from tho seed—either to take moro lint off, or lees lint from
tho seod, as circumstances require. We use both the common Roll Box and
a Swinging Front. The latter is arranged to lot out all tbe seeds and hulls
in a momeut, and is very easily managed.
THE GIN BRUSH
We meke, cannot be excelled by any bair brush used. Tho bristles are all
drawn in by a cord, nnd the timber is all selected from tho best lumbor, well
seasoned • and every brush is made perfectly tiro and rat proof.
CYBINDER AND BRUSH BOXES,
Are both oscillating and plain. Can furnish either, as may be ordered. We
line them with the best babbit metal.
GIN SAWS.
We make all the saws that we use from the best English Cast Steel, and o
any size that may be desired. We employ, to superintend and manufacture
our su"s, one of the buqj*eaw-ma':ors in the Soutn, aud our machinery for the
manufacture of Gin Saws cannot bo excelled.
COTTON SEED CRUSHING MILL.
We are the only successful manufacturers of this important and useful in
vention—the Cotton Gin, with the Cotton Seed Crushing Mill attached. It
will hardly be necessary hero to allude to the immense saving and economical
use of crushed cotton seed as a manure. We received a gold medal as a pro
miurn, from tbe Fair of the Cotton Planter’s Convention, held in Macou, Ga.,
18Ct>, for tho best Cotton Seed Crusher attached to the Gin Stand, to crush
the seed as fast as it escapes from tho Roll. We refer to some of the many
certificates that we have on the subject.
TRIAL OF GlNri.
We keep constantly on hand seed cotton, and every Gin is tried before it
leaves the shop-old cr new ones.
REPAIRING OF OLE GINS.
Wo have a complete assortment of tho very best Cotton Gin Machinery in
the country, and make repairing of old Gins a specialty. Planters will do
well to send in their old Gins and have them made as as now, at a much
less cost than anew one can be bought for. Send on your orders and old
Gins early
We aie also authorized by Messrs. Findlay’s Sons to receive orders orders
for Findlay & Craig’s Screw Cotton Press, and Craig’s Patent ren table Horse
Power, and Castings generally.
