- . THE FARMER.
Drive on, thou sturdy farmer,.
Drive cheerfully o'er the field,
The pleasure of afarmer's life
No other life can yield.
Thou riseth with the morning suny
To till the fruitful earth,
And when thy task is done,
Thou seek'st.thy peacful hearth.
Thou rores not the gaudy town,
With its tumultuous roar,
Plenty and peace thy fireside crown)
And thou dost ask no more..
Monarchs in robes with crimson dyed,
Are low compared. with thee;
They are pampered sons of pride,
Thou art God's nobility.
Go on, tiou sturdy farmer,
Tread proudly on thy sod,
Thy proud goodly heritage,
Thou chosen son of God!
Nixing Soils.
"Some nine or ten years ago, in the
early part of my farming, I had occasion
to deepen a well about six or eight feet.
The earth thrown out was a tenacious
blue clay, just damp enough to cut into
runips, and adhesive enough to remain so.
After finishing the well, the man who had
charge of the farm was at a loss to know
where to deposit it. Having a bare san
dy knoll in one of the fields, which was
not inaptly termed " personal property,"
from its being wafted about by every
breeze, here to-day, and there to-morrow,
it occurred to me that the clay would
hold the sand and form a soil. I accord
ingly ordered it deposited there in heaps,
the same as if manure. This was in the
Oummer. In the fall the lumps were scat
tered over the surface and left to the ac
tion of the rain and frost. In the spring
it was found to have broken down, crum
Bed and slacked like lime. These heaps
were reduced and the clay evenly spread
over the surface. The field received a
coat of manure, was ploughed, and sown
with -oats and peas. That where the
clay was applied, produced the largest
and more vigorous growth, of any other
part of the field. In the fall it was sown
with rye, and seeded down with timothy
and clover. The rye as well as the clo
ver was much more vigorous and heavier,.
on that than any part of the field. In
fact, the person who occupied the farm
after I left it, informed me that he lost his
crop of grass on that part in consequence
of.its lodging. Thus the personal was
made real or fast property, and remains
so to the present day.
"Having -experienced such beneficial
effects from mixing clay with sand, I was
afterwards induced to try what effect sand
wvould have on a rather retentive soil.
The garden at Three Hills Farm, is a
stiff clay loam resting on a strong tena
- cious clay subsoil, rather inclining to
moisture. The second year after I pur
chased and took possession of it, 1 caused
a coat of sand, from six to eight inches
depth, to be put on one of the squares,
which wvas spaded in with the manure,
and I had the satisfaction to witness the
most gratifying and happy results-the
crop on that square was far superior to
any other in the garden. Since then I
lhave caused over five hundred one-horse
cart loads of sand to be put in the gar
den, and the effect is still visible although
the sand has disappeared."-Dr. Poole.
PREsERVING WHEAT.-The wheat is
now being harvested and promises an
abundant yield. We trust our farmers
wvill use every precaution to shield it from
rainis and insects. The wheat crop is too
often suffered to remain ini the field in
small shocks, exposed to the weather
and ravages of birds and vermin, and
hence we have an inferior article of flour,
attributable to bad mills, when the fault
is in the management of the wheat.
We want no better bread than can be
made with Georgia wiheat ground by
mills. A friend in Jones county some
years since, told us that he dried his wheat
wvith heated rocks, and wvas never trou
bled with the weave?. Take good sized
rocks, make them sufficient hot to heat
without burning the whleat. First put
into a hogshead or ~box, a layer of wvheat
then a layer of rocks. About two layers
of rocks w~ill be enough for a hogshead.
We tried this plan last year, and have
not yet seen the bill of a wveavel in it.
Let our friends try the experiment, it can
do no harm,, and may save, much loss
and labor.-Rome Courier.
ABOUT Cows-Every one has felt the
Snconvenience of having his cows calve
during the night. In all seasons, but es
pecially i winter, this is exceedingly an
nioying, and not only demands contamual,
useless watching, on the part of the cow
keeper, but very often indirectly causes
the death of the calf and its mother.
Now it has been ascertained by a person
living in the neighborhood of Utrecht,
that a cow with calf', milked for- the last
time at night instead of in the morning,
Out of 30 cows on which the experiment
was tried, only three or four are men
tioned by Mr. Numnan, as being excep
tions. As confirming the above state
mnent wve may mention the fact, that a
large farmer in the campi-ne has also tried
the same plan with success.-Eastern Ga
zette.
HISs TO FAR31ERS.-Tomnatoes make
excellent preserves.
Plants, when drooping, are revived by
a few grains of camphor.
Pears are generally improved by graft
ing on mountain ash.
Turnips of small size have double the
nutricious matter that large ones have.
Rats and other virmin are kept from
grain by a sprinkle of garlic when pae-k
ing the sheaves.
Sulphur is valuable in preserving grapes
&c., from insects.
Cold bathing, pure water, plain diet, a
clear conscience, and a clean shirt, are
i.n,,.nsal tn healih and hapnnuness.
WoRTKNoWrG-How. TO PRUSERvE
PAsTE.-Every lady, ivho -keeps a scrap
book need to have a little ' cup of flour
paste at hand. How 'can the paste be
preserved? A clergy man in Connecti
cut told me a few years since that after
various experiments, he tried putting the
paste into and openmouth vial or jar and
covering the surface with tincture of
camphor. This was perfectly successful.
He could at any time take out what he
wanted with a little wooden spoon, with
out pouring out the champhor. Perhaps
the uncamphorated alcohol would answer
as well, but I should doubt it. I have not
lately met with any little discovery ofthis
kind, which has been of more service to
me, and many of your readers may be
glad to know of it.-Culturist.
A Horrible Dream.
WE once heard a laughable joke which
a henpecked husband got upon his wife.
He had borne her railing for many a long
year, till one morning, while she was
blustering away about wood, short of po
tatoes, flour, etc., he remarked very pa
thetically:
"Jerush, I had a dream last night-a
very queer one-and it gives me some
uneasiness. - I dreamed that I was taken
sick and died."
" Well, if it was no more than that,"
said the wife, "I wish it had been more
than a dream."
" But this is not all," said the husband,
"I went to hell, and when I got there I
inquired of one of the imps for the Old
Devil himself, and was shown to his pres
ence. The old fellow recognised me at
at once, and said to me: 'Have you
come here to stay?' I told him I had."
" Well, I can't have you here," said he,
"for if you stay, when Jerush dies she'll
come-and hell will be in an uproar all
the time !"
Soon after the completion of the nar
rative of the dream there came a shower
of culinary utensils about his head, which
obliged him to seek quarters elsewhere,
till his Jerush's wrath subsided.
NEVER SATIFIED.-"How little mo
ney would make me happy," said a wo
man who was employed in the house of
a gentleman of wealth. "How little Mar
tha?" enquired he. "0, dear sir, one
hundred dollars would make me perfectly
happy." "Would it, indeed? Then be
happy, for you shall have it-here it is,"
said he, as lie handed her the amount,
Martha thanked him gratefully, and he
turned away; but he was scarcely out of
hearing before she exclaimed "I wish I
had said two hundred!"
GETTING ON THEIr LEds AGAIN.
" What news to-day ?" said a merchant to
his friend lately.
" What news I" responded the gother,
"nothing, only times grow better-peo
ple are getting on their legs again."
"On their 'legs?" said the first, "I
don't see howv you can make that out."
" Why, yes," replied the other, " folks
that used to ride are obliged to walk now;
-is not that getting on their legs again ?"
Otr A Subscriber sends us the follow
ing. We suspect it is somewhat at vari
ance with the opinion of men in general:
Here, Printer, take this silver money,
And Ill send more before you dun mue;
For the worst of all life's human ills,
Is to be dunned for Printer's bills.
A Wish.
I wrean I had a little wife,
A little stove and fire,
I'd hug her like a lump of gold,
And let no one come nigh her.
A CELEBRATED GAMBLER, after attend
ing a great revival meeting, exp~erienced,
as he supposed, a change of feeling, and
was finally induced to take his seat on
the "anxious beach." The minister com
menced examining them on their experi
ence and the state of their feelings, and
finally, approaching the gambler, asked,
" Well, my friend, what do you say I"
"Oh," replied lhe, unconsciously, "I
pass! what do you do, old fe.llow ?" turn
ing to his left hand neighbor.
CooL.-The following orders were
given by the captain of a Western steam
boat, wihen she was about to engage in a
race with another boat:
"Rosin up, thar, and tell the engineer
to shut down the safety valves. Give lier
goss. Gentlemen who have n't stepped up
to the captain's office and settled, will
please retire to the ladies' cabin till we
pass that boat or burst. Fire up !"
A QUAINT OLD GENT had a man at
work in his garden who was quite the
reverse.
" Mr. Jones," said lhe to him one morn
ing " did you ever see a snail !"
" Certainly," said Jones.
" Then," said the old man, "you must
have met him, for you could never over
take him."
" LOOK HERE, PETE," said a knowing
darkey to his companion, " don't stan'
dar on de rail-road."
"'Why, Joe?"
"Kase, if de cars see dat mouf uv
yourn, dey will tink it am de depo', and
run rite in !"
A GENTLEMAN advertised in the' Wash
ington lIntelligencer, that he lost on the
9th inst., "a silver wvatch, wvith a gol
face, and gray frock coat."
OtrAN Irishman upon seeing a squir
rel shot from a tree: "said Faith and be
jabbers, that's a waste of powder; the
fall itself would have killed the squirrel."

ELMOns, BuaKE CY., Dec. 22, 1850.
Ma. J. E. MansIaL--Dear Sir : In compli
ec with your request', I make this simple state
nent of facts. My boy Daniel stuek a thorn in
s foot about the "first of last June, the thorn
's extracted, and no more thought of it for 15
r20 days, his foot then began to swell, and in a
v daye it was opened. It disecharged a large
uantity of matter. The discharge continued
reight days, and then ceased. His foot then
c-commenced swelling and extended up his leg,
high, anid hip, with violent pain. H~e then be
n to spit from his lungs matter similar to that
sharged from the abscess oni his foot. I then
alled in medical aid, and from the remedies used,
cwas alternately better and worse for eight or
1 weeks. During this time a large absess
rmed upon the hip, the discharge wvas large,
nd as soon as it ceased, a general swelling of his
g, thigh and breast commenced, which was very
ard to the touch. and at times experienced much
liculty in swallowing. Medical aid seemed of
ofurther avail, and was discontinued. I then
a recourse to your " Magical Pain Eradicator."'
aforty-eight hours, from the time I commenced
ue, his foot began to soften ; the swelling on
is hip and breast subsided, and I am pleased to
w he is noo woell.
I again used your remedy in a case of Neui)
lgia, with great success, giving immediate re-,
ef. I have tried it also for Tooth-A che, with
y youngest child, with entire success.
From the success I have had in the usc of
our " Magical Pain Eradicator," I have no hesi
tion in recommending it to the pubfle.
Yours truly,
W. W. HUGHES."
The above statements of the use of " Mar
tall's Magical Pain Eradicator," arc known by
meto be true.

COMMERCIAL TRANSCRIPT.
5. Olin Ta ey, Editor.
Published Daily,and Tri-weckly at Cetumbia,S. C.,
AT Four DOLLARs DAILY, and Two DOLLARS
TR-WEENLY, per annum, payable invariably six
months in advance.
The Publisher, though fully aware that the com
mercial necessities of Columbia do not require the
assistance of anotherjournal, is yet well satisfied
that the queitions now agitating the State, demand
a more thorough and searching examination than
they have yet received. To the furtherance of this
object, will the energies of this journal be direct
ed, in order that the people may have all the lights
before them, in deciding upon the policy to be
adopted by them in seeking for their rights, and re.
dress for their injuries and grievances.
Though.they entertain no doubt about the right
of a State to secede at any time and that upon this
right depends the sovereignty of the States, and in
this the only protection of the ciizen against a
centralized, consolidated power; yet believing, as
they do, that the exercise of this rightat this crisis,
by what is now called -"immediate se rate State
action," is a hazardous remedy, if ineed a reme
dy, at all of those grievances, involving dange
which no ken can foresee, and perhaps the blght,
ing of the now cheein prospect of a Soutben
Confederacy, the hisher will devote theh
columns more particularly to the exposure of those
dangers, and the ruinous consequences which wil
n all human probability grow oat of uoh aetion
He will further, by all just and honorable mean
sustain the wise and prudent measures indicated
by our State Legislature, In conformity. with the
sugestions of the Nasville Convention, which look
to the harmo niing of sentiment ahd soothng o
prejudices in the Southern States; that by unloz
among themselves, they might-redreu tiemselves
effectually, without the postibility of ineurrin
those evils which will certainly grow out of prema,
ture and has action. it is then sincerely hoped
by the r, that the'friends of co-operatu
united ation, or united secession as it may be
called, throughout she State, will propnpdy aid
him in thi enterpise.' Upon them it mutt depend
for its support. If, as even the most violent advo
cates of immediate secession saa Southern Con
federacy is ultimately i' jn'b~ A*s.sZure el
thigs, who shall we, wh beivet. prematine
action by this State will fbrever' blighitlmh hopei

PROF. A. C. BARRY'S
TRICOPHEROUS,
OR, MEDiCATED COMPOUND,
I NFALLIABLE for renewing, invigorating, an~
beautifying the Hair, removing the .curf, dan.
druff, and all affections of the scalp, and curing
eruptions on the skin, diseases of the glands, mus
ces and integuments, and relieving stings, cuts,
bruises, sprains, &c. With this preparation " there
is no such word as fail." The first journals 1:n
America, medical men of the highest eminence,
prominent citizens of all professions, and ladles
who have used it for years in their dressing rooms
and nurseries, admit with one accord, that for im.
parting vigor, gloss, luxuriance and curl to the
hair, cradiscating scurf and dandruff, healing
wonds, curing contusions, sprans, stings, &tc.,
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, 0r
used in private practice. In cheapness as well an
efficacy, Barry's Tricophierous is unrivalled. The
immel!e cash sales of the article have enabled the
Inventor to supply it at retail, at 25 cents r bot
tie, which is from 50 to 100 per cen.ls t n the
price of any other preparation for the hair now im
use. The scientific treatise on the hair and the
ukin, (embracing valuable directions for the culture
and preservation of Nature's choisest ornament,)
in which each bottle is enclosed, is alone worth
the money.
Sold, in larg bottles. price 25 cents,sat the prmnt
cipal office, 13 Broadway, New-York ; and by the
rncipal Merchants and Druggists throughout the
Unied States, and Canada, and by G. L. PzRN,

640 Reward.
T1 HE above reward will be given for the ap
1prehension and delivery in any convenient
jail, of TWO NEGROES, the property of the
subscriber, a man and a woman.
The man's name is AUSTIN, very dark corn
lected has one of his upper front teeth out, five
eet eigt or ten inches high, and weighs near
wo hundred pounds.
The Woman's name is PHILLIS, copper col
ored, chunky, and about 22 years of age.
The fellow ranaway about two years ago, and
was for nine months in Augusta, Ga., hiring his
time to diff'erent persons. It Is probable he is
now in that place, as when last heard from, he
was making his way in that direction.
