fall sowing op keeiw.
It is necessary to ol*serv«, that some, and c
ten many things, which are usually sown in the
spring, would be better sown in the fall; and
especially when wc consider how Wilt tour
there is for doing aH things in the spring. Par
snips, carrots, beets, anions, and many other
things, may be safely sown in the fall. 1 lie
Seed will not perish, if covered by the earth.
Seed of all plants will he safe in this way all
the winter, though tire frost penetrate to the dis
tance of three feet beneath them, except the
seeds of such plants as a .slight frost trill cut
down. T*he seed of kidney beans, for instance,!
Will rot , if the ground be not warm enough to,
bring it up. So will the seed of cucumbers, me
lons, and Indian com, unless buried beyond the:
roach of the influence of tire atmosphere. li
ven early peas Mould l>e best sown in the fill,;
could yon have an insurance against mice. c.
all know, what a hustle there is to get in early
peat. If they were sown in the fall, they would
•tart up the moment the frost was out of the
ground, and weald he ten days earlier in bear
ing, in spite of every effort made by the spring
growers to make their peas overtake them. I p
on a spot, where I saved peas for seed, last year,
some that was left, in a lock of haulm, at the
harvesting, and that lay ujkju the dry ground,
till the Uuul was ploughed late in November,
umo up, io the spring, the moment the frost was,
•ut of the ground, and they were in bloom full
Jfteen days earlier than those, sown in the same
field as early as possible in the spring. Doubt-:
less, they would have borne jieas fifteen days
sooner ; but there were but a very few of them,
and those standing straggling about; and I was
obliged to plough up the ground where they are'
growing. In some cases it would he a good;
way, to cover this sown ground with Utter , or
with leaves of trees, as soon as the frost has fair
ly set in ; but not before ; for, if you do it be
fore, the seed may vegetate, and then may lie,
killed by the frost. One object of this fall sow-,
ing is, to get the work done ready for spring ;|
for, at that season, you have so many things to,
do at once ! Besides you cannot sow the instant j
the frost breaks up ; for the ground is wet and;
clammy, unfit to be dug, or touched, or trodden
upon. So that here are ten days lost. Hut, |
the seed which has lain in the ground all the
winter, is ready to start the moment the earth is
clear of the winter frost, and it is up hy the|
time you can get other seed into the ground in a
good state. Fall sowing of seeds to come up in
the spring is not practised in England, though j
they are always desirous to get their things ear- j
ly. The reason is, the uncertainty of their |
winter, which passes, sometimes, with hardly I
any frost, at all; and which, at other times, is
severe enough to freeze the Thames over. It
is sometimes mild till February, and then se-j
vero. Sometimes it begins with severity and]
ends with mildness. So that, nine times out of;
ten, their seed would come up and the plants
would bo destroyed before spring. Besides
they have slugs that come out in mild weather,
and eat small plants up in the winter. Other
insects and reptiles do the like. From these
obstacles the American gardener is free. His
winter sets in ; and the earth is safely closed !
up against vegetation till the spring. I ami
speaking of the north of Virginia, to be sure;!
but the gardener to the south will adapt the ob
nervations to his climate, us fur as they relate
lo it.
From the Southern Planitt.
SWINE.
There is no species of property perhaps lhal
requires more of system in its management than
that of swine. When a proper system is pur
sued with these animals, they are kept with lit
tle trouble or expense, and yield a lucrative pro
fit. But when a loose system is followed, or
perhaps no system at all, instead of a profit, they
are found a vexatious and expensive burthen.
Hence the reason why so few find the raising of
hogs profitable ; and why we hear so many say,
it is cheaper to buy meat than to make it.
The Planter who is more ambitious to multi
ply his cotton bugs than his comforts, and can
barely afford to make corn enough for his table,
let alone feeding his stock, will find little profit
in raising hogs. Unless he can spare enough!
time from his cotton fields to put his fences in
Order ; and enough of ground to raise them pro
visions, he had better at once buy his meat of;
the drover, —unless he makes a plenty lo feed !
them upon, there is no philosophy in trying to
raise hogs.
In embarking into the hog business, ii is of;
some importance to the planter to ascertain the'
most suitable breed. A kind that would better
suit the circumstances of one, may not bo adap
ted to the circumstances of another. For in
stance, if provender is an object, and it is desir
able to produce the greatest number of pigs and
roasters from a limited supply of food, you will
select one of the smaller breeds, as being much
the easiest kept. One breed of hogs will live
and keep fat, where another would starve. On
the other hand, if vou wish to go the whole shoat
7 • \
for bacon, and corn is so plenty as to be no ob
joct, then a larger breed might answer better.
Os the former sort, the Guinea, the Chinese,
the Berkshire or the Suffolk breed might bo pre-|
forred; of the latter, or larger sort, the Hamp
shire; the Shropshire, or the Gloucestershire,
breed would be selected. A breed of hogs we!
have heard highly extolled at the north, is uu
improved breed formed from numerous crosses
with the Chinese and Leicestershire, Berk
•hire, &c. !
The next thing to bo considered, is the pro-!
per number to be kept. If you live near a good j
range, where hogs can keep fat without much!
attention ; or if you make more corn, rye, po- j
tatocs, &c. than you can dispose of in any other!
way, it matters but little what number you keep; j
as it is little more trouble to look after many
than after a few. But if you have but a small
farm or garden, (or perhaps not that, if you
live in town,) the case is altered. Though you
may support a pig or two very genteelly, from
the offals of vour kitchen and stable, and with
•*
very little trouble—yet if so situated you should
undertake to raise a greater number, you would
find it a losing business. Where most of their
food has to be purchased, hogs cannot be rais
ed to a profit.
Much more attention is paid to the manner of
fattening hogs at the North than here. There
every thing is reduced to a system —and is bro*t
as near perfection as possible. Until a few
weeks before killing time, they are allowed to,
run at large with plenty to eat, of the slops of
the kitchen and dairy, and such green food as
can be picked up. They are then put in pens,
or rather in houses, for in their construction a
good deal of taste is often displayed—being gen
teel frame buildings, their size corresponding to
the number of hogs they fatten, shingled and
weatherboarded, with good floor, ventilations,
&c. divided into three compartments, one for
eating fc another for sleeping, and the third for |
their excrement—thro’ which they pass at plea- .
sure. Attached, is the cooking apartment, with
or boilers, for baking or steaming their *
, f H«i—of which Irish |»otaloes form the larncstj
j l*orti*'n. After the potatoes nrocleaul\ wusii-j
. od and boiled soft, they are thrown into a large]
tub or trough, where they are mashed while
hot, and a quantity of coarse meal made often
of oats and j>e;is ground together, is mixed in.
' It is then allowed to stand two or three days un
til it Iwgins to turn sour, before it is fed out.
Os this hogs eat very greedily, and fatten fas
ter than on com, and at a less expense.
Whetlier any profitable substitute could be
found for fattening hogs at the South, for corn,
we are not prepared to say. As the weather is
milder than at the North, they may l>e kept e-1
iqually comfortable in less expensive houses. —
They should have a shed to protect them from
the rain, with a plenty of dry straw, and a pen i
proportioned to the number you fatten.
U'e should he glad to hear the results of ex
)!perirnents in fattening hogs on sweet potatoes,
: Ixtiled or raw—on corn meal, boiled corn, Ac.

It is a lively picture of life and manners, drawn with

; Among the other stories submitted in competition, there
are many of great merit. Those would have been special

able. They will be published in the succeeding numbers
jof our work, as opportunity may offer.
We hope to make the October Number of the Lady’s

; We take this occasion to remind our friends that the
I edition we are printing of the current volume, does not
i far exceed the actual number of subscribers, audit will
i therefore be necessary for those who wish complete

of the Cholera to the North and East, our orders have
increased to such an extent that we feel bound to state
the fact, that those who wish the work may see the im
propriety of further delay.

PROPOSALS |
] for tali *•!" f
Oco. to be called the
HORTH-AM2RICAN GAZETTE.
,_, HF subscriber proposes to publish a weekly paper
i wS to be called The North.Amf.rica>
.. , m . A S' as ’ i t wHI be his endeavor to make it use- 1
Gazette, ) , w jj\ venture to hope for such a .
; ; tulto the pubhc, he w himself a reasonable
j j share ot Whfio so many papers
in Augusta, and some of them so ably
edited, u .melt, be *?> ™
ducted, os to be a very acceptable wnoJjM I, ia b
to those who take, and to many who do not take the ,
other publications. How far it may be m the power ot,
the publisher of The Nokth-American Gazette to make
I it generally acceptable, can only be known alter the
I experiment has been made.—He can however, m ac -,
j vance of the experiment, venture to engage that no e- j
forts of his shall he wanting to render his paper gene-,
rallv useful. It will contain an account of the general j
occurrences of the day—will present to iis readers all
such foreign and domestic intelligence a? may be sup ,
posed to be of an interesting or important Character ,
such moral a«d religious information as may be appro- I
priate to such a publication, and such miscellaneous or
political communications, as shall, in the Editor s judg
ment, be calculated to benefit his lellow-men—and it
will be his endeavor to have the pages ot the Gazette j,
diversified with such occasional selections-, or original
communications, as may be deemed worthy the atten
tion of such female readers, as may be willing to pat
ronize the undertaking. _
As to the political complexion of the paper, it will be ;
necessary to say but little, as it is not to be exclusively ;
a political publication —but as tar as political subjects
Hud place in it, that course only will bo pursued, which
in the honest judgment ot the publisher will be best cal
culated to promote the substantial good ol his tellow
mcn. In a country like ours, the people all have the
same rights and the same interests : to advance these
interests and to sustain these rights, will be the endea
vor of the publisher of The North-American Gazette,
according to the best ot liis ability—and with them, that
happy Union ol the United States, on which their pre
servation must in his view inevitably depend. To the
contests of mere party scribblers, ho can promise no
countenance. To do good, will be the Editor’s endea
vor—if in this ho fails, it shall in no case be a voluntary
failure.
CONDITIONS.
Tiif. Nortii-Ameuican Gazette will he issued the
first week in October. The materials to Ire entirely
new; the paper of good quality and equal in size to any
paper now published in the Btate.
The publisher pledges to his patrons, that the me

Price of subscription Three Dollars per annum, or
Four Dollars if not paid within the year.

PROSPECTUS.
The former Editor of the “ Southern Spy* M. Smith,
and Doctor J. B. Monroe, intend to commence the pub
lication of a Political Newspaper, in the month of Octo
ber next, in the Town of Lawrenceville, Gwinnett conn,
ty, Georgia, to be entitled
T2£E LAWRSITCEVZXaXaE HERALD.
The dense population of this and the adjoining coun
ties, and the almost certain fact of the immediate occu
pation, by the people of Georgia, of the Cherokee coun
try, fully justify the establishment of a Preoci in this sec
tion of the State.
The Political doctrine of the HERALD will bo ac
cording to the policy and interest of Georgia, as regards
State Rights, and the propriety of the rcmuViJ ot all the
Indians of the South.—The South-Car.dina doctrine ol
indiscriminate Nullification will not bo supjKirled by tire
Herai.o—but the reserved rights of the States will be
pled us the best method of preserving tho confederated
Union.
The Herald, in all other cases, shall be a perfectly
free and neutral paper—lts columns shall bo open al
ways for the discussion of all political questions that
may be agitated by either of the political parties in Geor
gia—not the least preference shall bo given to either ot.
thein.—Tho subscribers to the HeraLd shall tutjoy the
full and uncommon privilege of reading in the same pa- 1
per both sides of all political questions and movement*,
j of importance, not only in Georgia, but in every oi
| the Union. Our motto shall be Pro et Con.
The Herald will vindicate the Rights of Man—ofia
sulted justice—injured innocence—defamed reputation,
and the cause ot morality—but will have nothing to do
with Theological or Religious controversy—this is the
business of the Clergy.
A summary view will be given every week in the-
Herald of all important events that may transpire hi
the world, as we may collect it from the Newspapers ot
the United States and from Europe.
The location of the Herald in the vicinity of the Che
rokee country and the Golden Mines, will enable us to
give all the Indian and Golden News from that region.
But few persons, it is hoped, in this and the adjoining
counties, will refuse to patronize the Herald, ns there
hy much money may be retained in this section that now
goes abroad for Newspapers and other prints.
Most excellent facilities are now afforded by tho fre
quency of the mails to this place, of obtaining the ear
liest news from Milledgeville, Augusta, Savannah,
Charleston, New-York, and the other northern cities,
and of disseminating the same by the Herald, to every
section.
CONDITIONS :
I-—The Herald will he printed every Wednesday
on a super-royal sheet, on good paper and typo.
ll.—Price per annum, will be §2 in advance, at the
time of subscribing, paid to M. Smith, the publisher, or
to him who holds this Prospectus, or in six months
from the publication of tho first number, or $4 in twelve
months thereafter, or for 52 numbers to the publisher.—
No Subscription taken for less than a year.
Hl.—All lists of Subscribers’ names, and all letters
on business, or communications, must come free of
postage, or they will not be attended to.
IV.—Any post-master, or other gentleman who will (
be so good as to present this and obtain responsible sub- 1
scribers hereto, and send the list to Lawrenceville, Ga. ]
by the tenth of September next, directed to the Editors
ot the Lawrenceville Herald, shall be entitled to every i
sixth paper subscribed for on this Prospectus, or tho
amount. !

£& ESPECTFULLY inform the Printers of the ■
‘A United States, to whom they have long been in. j
dividually known as established Letter Founders, that:
they have now formed a co-partnership in said busi- j
ness, and hope from their united skill, and extensive ! i
experience, to be able to give full satisfaction to all i
who may favor them with orders. j i
The introduction of machinery, in place of the tedious!
and unhealthy process of casting type by hand, long a ; '
desideratum by the European and American Founders, | i
was, by American ingenuity, and a heavy expenditure ■
of time and money on the partof our senior partner, first i
successfully accomplished. Extensive use ot the rna. i
chine cast letter, has fully tested and established its.
superiority, in every particular, over that cast by the
old process.
1 lie Letter Foundry business will hereafter he ear-' 1
ried on by the parties before named, under the firm of 1
-HI lE, HAGAR and Co. Their specimen exhibits 1
a complete series from diamond to 14 lines Pica. The!
book and news type being in the most modern light and '
style. j <

The Saturday Courier.
the largest and cheapest weekly NEWSPAPER Kt THt
UNITED STATES, IS TUBLISIIBD EVERY SATURDAY, BT
WOODWARD & SPKAGG,
PRICE TWO DOLLARS PER ANNUM,
PAYABLE HALF YEARLY IN ADVANCE.
THIS popular Journal is printed on an extra
imperial sheet, of the largest dimensions. It Colk
tains twenty-eight columns of reading matter, each 00.
luinn being equal to eight pages of a duodecimo book.
The publicatiort ol the COURIER was commenced
April last, since which time it has received a patroiug,
so niTcJtanipled that more than seven thousand copies ars
now distributed weekly through all parts of the United
States. This fact, which has no parallel in the ann»J*
of the periodical-press, will show the high estimation «
which the Courier is every where held; and that thfc
, same ratio of increase will continue, may fairly be prv
i’ sumed, inasmuch as since the commencement of t h*
present month, nearly one thousand new names hat*
been added to the subscription list.
The Courier posresses advantages over all oilier week
i ly newspapers. Its irtlhicnse size admits of the greater
. possible variety, and its contents furnish an extensive.
useful, novel, entertaining ahd instructive miscellany,
i comprising the different branches of popular literature’
j such as Tales, Poetry, Essays, Criticisms, Ac.; notice*
i of the Fine Arts, Humor, Sporting, Anecdote, Sketches
i of Life and Manners, Police Reports, Prices Current ol
j the Crain Market, Foreign and Domestic Intelligence of
| the latest dates, and an abstract and summary ofallntan
i tors which may possess interest for the general reader.
The Literary Department of the Courier is watchfully
j uperintended, and no article is admitted which docs no!
possess positive merit. One Hundred Dollars were p»j ( l
for a Prize Tale which was published iu this paper (l| i
the Tth of January, and otlvcr Irtduccnrertts have beec
offered to secure original contributions. Among the vo;
Unitary correspondents ol the Courier are Miss Lesliei
(author of several publications, which have been highly
applauded by American and European critics;) Richard
Penn Smith, tlie celebrated Dramatist, Novelist, find
Magazine writer—Mrs. Caroline Lee Henta, the accent;
plished author of the prize tragedy, “De Lara”—Min
Bacon, the fair writer of the pathetic “ Love’s Martyr/
Ac. And many others whose names are equally distin'-
gnished; besides a number, whose productions underlie)
titious signatures, have elicited general approbation.
In the selection of literary matter, the publishers of
the Courier have extensive facilities. Their exchange
list includes the most valuable American journals; and
among other periodicals which they receive from abroad
may be specially enumerated Bulwer’s new
Campbell’s Metropolitan, Frazer’s Magazine, London
Literary Gazette, Blackwood’s, La Belle Assomblee,
World of Fashion, and the United Service Journal.
Through their agent, Mr. AN illmer, they are also furnistn
ed with the choicest English papers, including the John
Bull, Bell’s Life in London, Ac.
A portion of the Courier is appropriated to Sporting
Intelligence, and particularly to that branch which related
to the Turf. Subjects of this kind are introduced as of.
ten as a proper regard to variety will admit. Descrip
tions of Favourite Horses, their pedigree, performance)
and appearance, accompanied with engraved likeness* *
are occasionally given, in furnishing which assistance ii
procured from several distinguished sportsmen.
Police Reports occupy a share of attention. Those
are prepared by a skilful person, engaged expresslytoj
that purpose; and as the material, are gathered from aiN
thentic sourness, their general accuracy may be confi
dently relied. In arranging them for the press thu re*
porter combine, facstiousness with fact, and so constructs
the naratives, that in most instances they will bo found
extremely graphic and diverting, without Uio slightest
sacrifice of truth.
In preparing the contents of the Courier, strict regard
is paid to News. All foreign intelligence, up to the Is.
test dates, is invariably given ; and whenever a press of
matter may require it, au extra will be published. The
summary of domestic affairs is more complete, cor
reel and full, and embodies a greater extent and variety
of information than can he found in any other paper, as isl
addition to a condensed statement of localities, a synopsis
of passing events in all parts of the country la u&uhuly
prepared and published.
In order that those who have to laugh may find matte*
for their mirth, each number contains-a melange oflluj
nlourous Subjects, sonic of which Is illustrated by m
engraving, executed by a skilful artist.
The Editorial Department embraces reviews of nptf
publications—notices of the fine arte, Ac.; remarks on
general topics—descriptions of public improvement*
amusements, Ac. —discussions of suitabble subjects—dra
matic criticisms, Ac. This department has be*u, ud
will continue to be, conducted in a spirit of tho most fear,
less independence. Whatever comes fairly withm ob.
servation, shall be frankly dealt with, and no station or in
fluence will deter the prompt and decided expression of
unbiassed opinion.
In fine the Saturday Courier professes to bo the lar.
gest, cheapest, most diversified, entertaining and in
structive newspaper issued from the American press.—
The publishers claim for its contents a character of vi.
gorous originality, judicious selection, extensive variety,
and interesting detail; and they invito comparison with
cotemporary publications.
