There is every variety of soil peculiar to Georgia and South-Caro Una, a IrTcrc portion of them are river, inland, hammock and”bay lands. The river Hammocks are cover ed with a heavy growth of Live Oak und Orange Trees, and are never inundated—The Hay Lands •are heavily timbered,-many of the Bay trees being four feet over—The Inland Hammocks (not bor dering on the river) are numerous, and contain from 100 to 1000 acres—-The Pine Lands are ter tilo, and similar to the best of Upland on the Sea Islands of Georgia and South-Carolina, and hate been demonstrated to produce 2j bushels ol corn to the acre.

Parks pro mised to pay the said John Fletcher or bearer, the. sum of twenty-one hundred and sixty dollars, on or before the twenty-fifth day of December next ensuing the date hereof, for value received : And by the other of said notes, the said James G. Parks promised to pay the said John Fletcher or bearer, the sum of twenty-one hundred and fifty five dollars on or before the 25th of December 1831, for value received: And also that the said James G. Parks is indebted to the said John Fletcher in the just sum of five hundred dollars by open account, for goods, wares and merchandize, sold and deli vered to him by said Fletcher, and forjjioney lent and advanced to him by said Fletcher, and for money had and received by him the said James G. j Parks for the use of said John Fletcher. Now, 1 for and in consideration of the sum of five dollars, j by the said John Fletcher to the said James G. Parks in hand paid, the receipt whereof is hereby acknowledged, as well as for the better securing the payment of the aforesaid two promissory notes and the said open account, the said James G. Parks hath granted, bargained anil sold, and doth by these presents grant, bargain and sell unto the said John Fletcher, his heirs and assigns, all that lot or tract of land, lying and being in the fifteenth district of said county of Houston, and known and distinguished in said fifteenth district of Houston county, by number two hundred and three, toge- 1 ther with all and singular the growing crop of com, cotton and sugar cane thereon, consisting of sixty acres of com, eighty-fike acres of cotton, and one acre and a half of sugar cane, three negroes, Judah a woman about forty years of age, Charles a boy (Judah’s child) about ten yours of age, John a boy (Judah’s child) about seven years of age, three head of horses, two sorrels bought of Chappcl A Holcomb of North-Carolina, one a chesnut sorrel bought of William Cole, one road waggon, one ox-cart, one yoke of led steers, fif teen head of stock cattle marked with a Crop and split in each ear, forty head of stock hogs mark ed with a crop and split in each ear, four beds, bed-steads anti furniture, one dozen chairs, four ploughs and plough gear, five axes and six weed ing hoes, and the remainder of a stock of goods, consisting of cloths, calicoes, muslins, bats, shoes, spirituous liquors, and other articles of merchan dize, amounting to two thousand dollars or there abouts —To have and to hold said bargained pro perty to the said John Fletcher, his heirs and as signs, to his and their own proper use, benefit and behoof forever: And the said James G.

EDW’D WELCH,CI’k. •Medical College,, lvossTin.vrov BY, and with the consent of the Reformed Medical Society, of the United States, the new Reformed Medical Institution has been loca ted ill Worthington, an interesting and flourishing town on the Whetstone River, 8 miles north of Columbus, on the Northern Turnpike. This site has been chosen because it presents the greatest advantages to facilitate the researches of the Bo tanical student; the country around it abounding with every variety of medical plants; and the sit uation being the most healthy and delightful in the Western country —and because the occupancy of the large. College Edifice, together with grouud of every variety of soil for an extensive bdtanical garden, has been presented to us by the board of trustees of Worthington College. There w ill be attached to the institution, a Dis pensary lor analyzing and preparing Vegetable Medicines; and an Infirmary, whore persons from the neighborhood, or a distance laboring under fevers, consumptions, dispepsa, liver complaints, gravel, ulcers, fistulas, cancers* Ac. Ac. will be successfully treated, without bleeding, mercury or the knife, and from which the student will acquire a correct knowledge of the nature, operation and superior efficacy of vegetable agents in removing disease. The necessity for an Institution of this kind in the west, to be under the direction of the compe tent Professors is strikingly evident. It is an insti tution that is designed to concentrate,and dissem inate all the knowledge of l)rs. of Medicine and empyrics, sages; A savages that will demonstrate to the student and the siek thviV.vegetables alone afford the only rational, safe and effectual means of removing di senses without impairing the con stitution, or endangering life or limb. The pre sent system of practice which treats diseases of every form with metalic minerals, uie lancet or knife is dangerous as the lamentable facts which everyday presents too fully illustrate. Nor is this truth more clearly exhibited than the fact that vegetable substances alone, are void of dan ger, and powerfully efficient when administered; a reference to the success of otir New 3'ork In firmary and the success of ignorant botanical physicians, proves this fact. The College and Infirmary will be opened the first week in December, where students from all parts ma) r enter and complete their Medical Ed ucations, and where persons laboring under every species of disease shall receive prompt and faith ful attention. The course of study to be pursued and which will be taught naccording to the OLD rnd RE FORMED systems by Lectures, Recitations, Examinations tnd suitable text books is.

O. GREEN. April 28 46 PROSPECTUS OF HIE And Agricultural and Mercantile Intelligencer. MV recent relinquishment of a participation in the editorial labors of an old and well established journal, would seem to require but few preliminary remarks, in the proposed under taking, were it not, that they are usually deman ded by public expectation, and sanctioned by custom. As there is 110 good reason why this “time-honored observance” should be disregard ed in the present instance, I shall submit an epit ome of my principles, and the course which shall be observed in conducting anew journal, The object of the proposed publication being purely what its title implies, supercedes the necessity of that political commentary which the doctrines of the day have usually demanded; yet, as my former professions are held with unabated at tachment, and there being no neutral ground, in the conflicting and varied sentiments* which dai ly arise, as to both men and measures—it follows, that I should not only make an exposition of my political tenets, but also, that they should be boldly set forth, and fearlessly defended. I have ever indulged an ardent devotion to Republican ism, as the term was understood by its advocates in ’l)B—a sacred regard to the letter and spirit of the Constitution, and a determined and fixed hos tility to every thing like constructive or implied powers—an extension of equal justice to all par lies—that all power is inherent in and derived from the people, us the original source and ulti mate tribunal —the independence and distinct so vereignty of the States, and their confederacy as a Union, under a government limited and actual .y defined in its powers. These are the momi nent articles of my political faith, and befieving in their correctness, shall abide by them in every trial. Among the many topics of deep interest that agitate the people of all classes, is the exercise of unwarrantable governmental influence on the industry and resources of the Country, and the unconstitutional expenditure of the public treas ure to objects of Internal Improvement—measures too frequently destitute of general benefit, and of tentimes marked by a spirit’of partiality, selfish ness and injustice, It would be criminal for one “seated on the watch-tower,” and in the exercise of the duties which belong to the Press, to ob serve, with Callous indifference, the causes which have produced, and the effects which have re suited from the latitudinary construction of the Constitution. The dangerous consequences which may ensue, are already indicated by the excited j feelings of the country. lam deeply impressed that wrong has been done, and evil tolerated— yet, with a spirit of forbearance, it would be bet ter for the Oppressed to bear their evils whilst they are tolerable, than “fly to those they know not of.” The present is an era in the history of our gov-* eminent, distinguished for improvement. The lover of his country beholds it on its “return march” to its original purity and principles.— Already has the distinguished hOad of the gov ernment, caul —“T! e successful operation of the federal system can only be preserved by confin ing it to the few and simple, but yet important objects for which it was designed.” This is a guarantee, that the purpose of the present Exe cutive of the Union and his supporters, is an ef fort t.d restore the Constitution to its original healthy and unimpaired condition. lam happy to accord with the Administration and its friends in the wise and well directed course whicli is pursued by them. The time was, when to dissent from the mea sures of any of the prominent parties of our State, by an attachment to any of the others, or to thpir then distinguished organs, implied an hostility and acrimony which frequently had no bounds, and rendered “Wisdom, Justice, and Moderation," an empty and absurd profession. The times and circumstances have now become more congenial to tatter feelings: the perplexing difficulties which have surrounded us—those emanating abroad, and fostered at home, have subsided, with the acknowledgment of our rights, and the successful accomplishment of nearly ajl the ends which we have contended for. I can review my past course in relation to State affairs, with cheer ing approbation; my future efforts will be inti mately connected with the past; and it is hoped, i without offence to an adverse parly. The writer j does not believe in the infallibility of man, nor | in their perfection as a party; it will therefore be ! my endeavor to support worthy men, and ap prove such orthodox Pleasures as may emanate from genuine patriotism and unadulterated re publicanism —such measures as Will best answer ; the ends of our free government, and of our State’s interest: —such men as will “defend the rights of the People, the Sovereignty of the States, and the Constitutional authority of the Union against all encroachments,” It shall be my studious endeavor to render the Intelligencer an Agricultural and Mercantile ve hicle: to effect it, I shall hasten to possess my self of all the necessary materials which these ample subjects furnish* to unfold every species of information which will be thought to instruct, to interest, and to please. It is believed, that the mntaal conjunction of interest, between the Merchant and Planter, cannot fail to render ac ceptable to one, whatever may benefit the other. My efforts shall be used to procure the earliest and most useful mercantile information, and lay it before the public; and it will be my desire to go into Rural Affairs, and garner the choicest ami best offerings for my Agricultural readers.
