February Calendar*
The Flo wee Garden and Shrubbery. —
Spring, blythe spring, now begins to open on
us. The grass looks fresh and green; and the
•woods gay with the snowy blossoms o i the
Dog-wood; the rich and fragrant flowers of that
Southern gem, the yellow Jessamine; with an
occasional glimpse of the Red-bud. Tender
every sheltered bank and beildy neuk, some
thing pretty may be found. In the garden,
many Roses are in bloom; so that we but too
often have a sight of a natural gem—a rose
bud encased in ice! The Lady Banks Rose,
■white and yellow, open wreaths of their lovely
clusters in the sheltered gardens. The Crocus,
the Hyacinth, Narcissus, and many other early
bulbs, are now unfolding their beauties. Vio
lets scent the air, tempting the Mocking-bird
to competition; reminding us, insensibly, of
the loving strife between the Nightingale and
the Lily of the Valley, so sweetly set forth by
Mrs. Austin in that wondrous little book,
<‘The story without an end”—when “no one
could see whether the notes of the nightin
gale were floating lilies, or the lilies visible
notes, falling like dew-drops from the nightin
gale’s throat.”
Previous to forming a flower garden, and in
those already formed, the ground should be
made rich and mellow. Where the soil is stiff,
an addition of sharp sand will be found to pro
duce an improvement. It is now time that
' many annuals were sown; thuse with very mi
nute seeds, in small boxes or in pots, well drain
ed; covering the seeds with a mere sprinkle of
fine mould, many not needing even this. Keep
shaded and sheltered until up, when they must
be exposed to the light and air to harden them.
When large enough, plant out, shading and
watering when needed. Where the seeds are
not so very small, as in the Balsam or Touch
me-not. Drummond’s Phlox, Larkspurs, &c.
they may be sowed at once in the borders.
In the Green-house the Achimenes and Glox -
inia bulbs should be started. Turn out the ball
from the pot in which they were grown last
year; and which should have been turned on
its side on a dry shelf, when the plants died
down in the fall, receiving no water and being
merely protected from frost. Break up the
ball gently and pick out the bulbs, which are
singular scaly productions. Take a seed-pan
or an eight-inch pot, put in plenty of broken
crock for draining, say two inches, then fill up
with a mixture of leaf mould, sand, and a lit
tle well rotted manure. Piant the Achimenes
bulbs an inch and a half apart over the whole
surface, covering them hall an inch. Water
gently, and place in a hot bed or in a warm
part of the green-house or elsewhere, until
they begin to grow, when they should be taken
up gently and planted in smaller pots —the
longiflora, patens , coccinea, rosea , Gheibrichtii ,
Grandiflora, elegans, and others tjf a like habit,
should be planted, three bulbs in a six inch
pot, using a mixture of one part sand, three
parts leafmould, and three parts good, well
rotted manure. Achimenes , picta, Leipmanii,
pedunculuta, &e’, one tuber in a five inch pot.
We know of no more beautiful green-house cr
parlor flower, especially as they are in their
full beauty through the whole summer, when
they are most wanted indoors. They are, also
of very easy cultivation, and multiply without
trouble. The Gloxinia bulbs differ in appear
ance from the preceding, and do not increase
in number in the pot, though they do in size.
They should now have their bulbs carefully
I shaken dear of the soil, and be repotted in a
mix *ure of one-half decayed vegetable mould,
and onC'hatf good rich loam, with the addition
of a little sand or charcoal. All the varieties
are very beautiful, enriching the green-house,
parlour, or verandah, through the summer.
The leish Exiles. —The following extracts
from a letter written by a gentleman residing
in Van Dieman’s Land, must be interesting to
the families, friends, and admirers of the exiled
Irish leaders:
“In your last you inquired anxiously for
Meaghei. I must tell you now that we are on
the most intimate terms with all the exiles.
\Ve have met Meagher, Martin, and Mitchell.
The two latter are stationed but a few minutes'
walk from this. As to Meagher, we went twen
ty-five miles to see him, to the lakes, the trys
tlng place, where the three districts meet; but'
after all, were disappointed. It seems hard
of the government to confine each to one dis
trict, after they had given their parole not to
escape. However, they do not adhere strictly
to the wishes of the government.
“Soon after our excursion to the lakes Mea
gher visited Bothwell, with his friends Mitch
ell and Martin. We then made his acquain
tance. He has bsen getting a fine boat built,
to beguile his time on the lakes, and he is
about building a hermitage on one of the Is
lands, where he purposes residing. He asked
Miss , a friend of mine, to go up and chris
ten his boat, which is to be called Speranza,
in compliment to the fair poetess: but as we
all agreed that the weather is too cold for ladies
to travel, we deferred the christening till
spring.
“Smith O’Brien, who, you know, refused
his parole, is confined to Maria Island, but is
now allowed more liberty than at first, having
a horse to ride about the island, which is a
beautiful one.
“Mitchell’s contenance is very fine, has great
variety of expression; he has the stamp of a
leader. His health is much improved by the
climate.
‘ Martin is a great favorite with us all—he
is so kind, frank, humble and honest; his health
is also good. They are on the most friendly
terms with all the neighborhood. Three days
never pass that we don’t see some of them. A
ll'w days ago we had a great laugh at themjthey
g ot tired of their lodgings, (anything but com
fortab lc ») took a c ° tta g e » and kept house three
days ex. nctly.—The first evening they came
and poured out their household griefs at our
fireside: tht'V next went t 0 our the
■ thir./ Mr. Mitchell, declared he
could stand it n'° lon S er » and returned, bag
and baggage, to former housekeeper, de
claring that no ho w could be ke Pt without
a woman.”
A subsequent letter contract.’ 0 * 3 the report
of Mr. O’Brien’s attempted escape, f° r which
the writer says there is no* the least ground.
fflA New Light. —Professor ,<3hranf, to whom
Congress appropriated SSOOO, experiment
tal purposes, made an experiment with a new
light on Wednesday night, which, .«*y® tlie
N. Y. Mirror, for brilliancy and cleanse* 3
unsurpassed.
It was displayed from the bluff of Staten
Island, at Fort Tompkins, and from about halt*
past seven until after eight o'clock, the rays of
the light were thrown on Castle Garden, a
distance in a direct line °f eight and a half
miles, whereby the superiority of this light
over any other, at least on our coast, was clear
ly demonstrated. After that time, the light
was so arranged as to cast the rays on the light
I ship, anchored about lour and a half miles
South-east from Sandy Hook, and no doubt
with similar success.

AUGUSTA, GEORGIA, FRIDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 14, 1851.
PROF. A. C. BARRY’S TRICOFHE
ROUS,
OR MEDICATED COMPOUND.
INFALLIBLE for renewing, invigorating and
beautifying the HAIR, removing the scurf,
dandruff, and all affections of the scalp, and curing
eruptions on the skin, diseases of the glands, mus
cles and integuments, and relieving stings, cuts,
bruises, sprains, 6tc. With this preparation ‘‘there
is no such word as fail.” The first journals in
America, medical men of the highest eminence,
prominent citizens of all professions, and ladies
who have used it for years in their dressing rooms
and nurseries, admit with one accord, that for im
parting vi,;or, gloss, luxuriance and curl to the
hair, eradicating scurf and dandruff, healing
wounds, curing contusions, sprains, stings, &c.,
and relieving diseases of the skin, the glands and
the muscles,it has no equal among the multitude
of compounds advertised in the public prints, or
used in priyate practice. In cheapness as well as
efficacy, Barry's Tricopherous is unrivalled. The
immense cash sales of the article have enabled
the inventor to supply it at retail, at 25 cents per
bottle, which is from 50 to 100 per cent less than
the price of any other preparation for the hair now
in use. The scientific treatise on the hair and the
skin, (embracing valuable directions for the cul
ture and preservation of Nature's choicest orna*
nfent,) in which each bottle is enclosed, is alone
worth the money.
The affinity between the membranes which con
stitute the skin, and the hair which draws its sus
tenance from this triple envelope is very close.—
All diseases of the hair originate in the skin of the
head. If the pores of the sea p are clogged, or if
the blood and other fluids do not circulate freely
through the small vessels which feed the root with
moisture, and impart to the fibres, the result is
scurf, dandruff, shedding of the hair, graveness,
dryness and harshness oi the ligaments, and entire
baldness, as the case may be. Stimulate the skin
to healthful action with the Tricopi.erous, and the
torpid vessels, recovering their activity, will anni
hilate the disease. In all affections of the skin,
and of the substrata of muscles and integuments,
the process and the effect are the same. It is
upon the skin, the muscular fibre, and the glands,
that the Tricopherous has its specific action, and
in all affections and injury of these organs, it is a
sovereign remedy.
Sold, in large bottles, price 25 cents, at the prin
cipal office, 137 Bioadway, New York, and sold by
the principal Merchants and Druggists throughout

Elmore, Burke County, Dec. 22,1850.
Mr. J. E. Marshall, —Dear Sir: In compli
ance with your request, I make this simple state
ment of facts. My boy Daniel stuck a thorn in
his foot about the first of last June, the thorn was
extracted, and no more thought of it for 15 or 20
days, his foot then began to swell, and in a few
days it was opened. It discharged a large quanti
ty ol matter. The discharge continued for eight
days, and then ceased. His foot then re com
menced swelling and extended up his leg, thigh,
and hip, with violent pain. He then began to spit
from his lungs matter similar to that discharged
from the abscess on his foot. I then called in me
dical aid, and from the remedies used, he was all
ternateiy better and worse for eight or ten weeks.
During this time a large abscess termed upon the
hip, the discharge was large, and as soon as it
ceased, a general swelling of his leg, thigh and
breast commenced, which was very 7 hard to the
touch, and at times experienced much difficulty
iu swallowing. Medical aid seemed of no further
avail, and was discontinued. I then had recourse
to your " Magical Pain Eradicator.” In forty
eight hours, lrom the time I commenced its use,
his fool, began to soften ; the swelling on his hip
and breast subsided and I am pleased to say he is
now well.
_ I again used your remedy in a case of Nueial*
fia, with great success, giving irrmediate relief.
have tried it also for Tooth-Ache, with my
youngest child, with entire success.
From the success I hare had in the use of your
“Magical Pain Eradicator,” 1 have no hesitation
in recommending it to the public.
Yours truly, W. W. HUGHES.
The above statements of the use of “Maishall's
Magical Pain Eradicator” are kuown by me to be
true.

NORTH AMERICAN
ELECTRIC WASHING FLUID,
For icashing in hard or soft water.
THIS is the only genuine article to be found
in the world ; and possesses double the pow
er of any ihing ever discovered for washing
clothes, at a trifling expense, doing away with
wash boards at once In fact, it seems to be the
long sought Phi'osopher’s Stone, or universal sol
vent ; seeming a magical preparation, its opera
tion being of the most astonishing character. A
common sized washing may be done with one gill
of this Fluid, in less than two hours. It softens
and removes the dirt, leaving the articles of the
mo3t brilliant whiteness. It being as harmless in
its operations as pure water, and clothing will
wear mueh longer than when tubbed to pieces by
the common method of washing.
This Fluid is a powerful agent, to be used in all
cases where soap is required, particularly for
cleansing milk utensils, cleaning windows and
paint, scouring floors ; in short, it is beyond a pre
cedent, as its use is universal in the washing world.

FROM DR HIRAM COX.
Late Professor in the Cincinnati Eclectic Medical
College,
Mr. A. L. Scovili: However reluctant I have
been to permit my name to be attached to patent
medicine, I consider it a duty U, the community
to state that in three cases of incipent consumption
viz : Miss Bell, Miss Barger, and Mr. R. H Cox
one of our City Council, Uat Dr. Rogers' Liver
wort and Tar operated more like a specific than
any other remedy that 1 have ever used. One of
the eases, viz : Miss Bell, pronounced by several
physiciaus to be laboring under the last stage of
scrofulous Consumption. She is now in good
health, from the use of a few bottles of the above
syr»P-. . HIRAM COX, M. D.

From the Hon. Judge Henry Morse.
Mr. A. L. Scovill: I am wtll acquainted with
Dr. Hiram Cox and his practice, he having been
my family phys cian for many years, and can
cheerfully say that I have as much co. fidence in
his skill as any man living.

Cincinnati, Nov. Bih, 1847.
From William Richards, M. D.
* J*® 1 constrained from a sense of duty to make
the following statement, conscious that it mav a D .
pear unprofessional. Mr. Cl arles Wade of thi
city, was quite low with Pulmonary Consumption
for which I had been treating with less than usual
success. At his request, and that of his friends I
permitted him to try Dr. Rogers' Liverwort and
} ar; and I must confess that its efiects were real
ly surprising. After using the second bottle my
vmts were discontined, and he was soon restored
to health. Ido con- cientiouslv recommend my
brother practioners to prescribe this remedy in all
pulmonary complaints which baffle the ordinary
mode of treatment. "
