For the information of absent share holders, I here beg leave to state, that tho number of tickets sold up to the present time is about 46,0U0. From this you will perceive, that so soon as 34,000 more are sold, they will advise the whole body of share holders of the fact, and ask of them, in general meeting assembled for the purpose, instructions as the final disposition of the Gift Property, with which they are intrusted. That these 34,000 tickets may bo sold in the shortest possible time, tho undersigned makes the following propositions, unequalled for liberality: Each person who gets tip a club of ten subscri bers, and forwards (10) ten dollars to this office, will receive by return mail or other conveyances, Eleven tickets.

[tds] Executrix QUARTERLY REVIEW. ri'MlIS Periodical is the only one of its class in the 1 entire region of the South: and its pages are referred to as the best evidence of the ability ot the South, and its capacity to give expression to the feelings, the interests and intelligence of this sec tion of our country. Its purpose is to fairly repres ent ourselves, and not to misrepresent others. It aims to maintain the truth as we understand it, and to assert the intellectual equality of our section, while, at the same time, it will free the mind of the mind of our people from that state of literary thral dom and dependency under which they have too long labored. We claim, then, from all lovers of the South and friends of a truly home literature, tiiat support lbr our work which will enable us to give it a free course, and thus make it eminently worthy of the world’s admiration and our own pride.

The editors will each, in his department, give a re-cord of the progress and advancement of agri culture and horticulture, especially, as adapted to the soil and climate of the South. Each number will contain plans for the month, for the farm, orchard and garden ; new plants and seeds adapted to Southern culture will receive the careful atten tion of the editors, and a faithful report, made thus saving thereon, thepublie from much imposi tion.

We know there are more than 10,0*00 reading farmers, gard ners, and fiorsts around us, who would save money by taking the Soil of the South. But it is not confin ed exclusively to this class. Every man that plants cotton or corn, a cabbage, or a turnip, keeps a horse or a cow, raises an apple, pear, plum, peach, grape, fig or strawberry; every lady that cultivates a rose, geranium or pink : every house-keeper that makes a loaf of bread, or a pot of soap, will find in the Soil of the South, for 1854, something worth ten times tlie subscription price.
