Fron the CQ tgi u.oW Julg28, 1i89, Rlesources of the 'Southl -0 The title of this well-known and valuable olumo, is a comprohensivo one, and fully .inveys the Idea of its contents. It deve, pees, as it purports to do the "resourcos of .ho Southern fRel$ ad forest, medical, commerclal and agr cmitural;" and provides a complote "medical bot4ny of the Southern Mtates ' far more cowdrehensivo than any yet published-havIngi-iif faet the advan. tago of using all prov16uq publleations-of which Da. PonoznR hs made excellent use. It affords practidhi Information, of the most valuable kind, in'respect to the "uso, "ul proportles of te..trees, plants and ohrubs," abounOing eveywhere in the !ropical vogota h,of the Bouth. All the cond W6ns of this promise ot the tio are fulitt1- n the pages of this copious Id most vaIu.le voluine; and, whether ,e consider the iticlIan' the planter the .#peculator, the hpusekeeper or the simple 4tizen, this should, be a household book ith all. In brief -it tak ep rank with the h0solutely nedoaspr histories of the coun, -,y; and whore they 6xhibit little less than ibe sirifts, the st1uggles, the wars, and the !aiserablq politics of society, this volume #rows us Paqk upon God: shows us what Iave boon 1o blessings and bounties we owe to His hands; shows us where to turn . or resource at the hour of need I shows the statesman how best to calculate the proba% ble products of the soil; the farmer how to avail himself of its natural productions; the domestic mediciner how to meet the omer, goncles of disease, front his nativo woods; and the domestic economist how to find, in probably the most miserable weed, an herb of grace as wall[ as utility, giving relief to his pails. and savor to his soups. Conveying almost every variety of Instrue, tion on all those vital subjets, this volume of Da PoRonER was aimirably calcuated to meet the exigencies of the great civil war, forced upon the Confederate States at a mo% ment when their materials in food, muedlelne, metals and machinery were almost wholly wanting; art and science, irrespective of simple agriculture, was deficient in training and experience, and when our people suf, fared from privations which rendered neces sary the exercise of every agency to meet the exigences of daily life. The preparation of such a work as the prosent, hnppily occurred to the Surgeon% General of the Confederate States; and with a like fellcity of judgment. he chose for its preparation the editor in whose able hands Srachioed the most singular success, and becamo of general use throughout the war, DR. PoRCHER brought to his task all the essentials of study, science, thought and medical training so essential to the work. Yor 12 years, as phy siclan and surgeon, he had dwelt in charge of the hospitas, enjoy, ing daily opportunites for experimental in vestigations in Therapeutics and Practical Medicine. lie had made the best use of those opportunities; of most Iicorrigible in. dustry, his experiments were conducted through the nicest details, and subjected to all the most scientilic tebts. lie was at once scientifically and practically nauralist; an explorer of woods und forests; an atalist of shrubs, roots and herbs-gifted with a hap py quickness in discriminating them, and an rqually happy art in discovering their mied leinal and other qualities. Nor, in these studios in the open fields. olid he limit himsel to the teachings simply of material tnture. He was well read in the best books of science, and tested their al leged truths by his own experience. The catalogue or scientifle works which he has examined. constlures, of Itselft a most ca% pacions library. From the woods, fields and forests, the swamp and the rocks, from the. writings of learned men, be turned agaln to conemporary nuthority, aid -.ought from the individual citi,en the forester, the farmer and planter, and old housekteepers. all that they could tell of their own discov, I.ries in the domestic prOvince. There were, ad still are a thousand simple secrets of old People, of ite red mon and of the negro, which yield remedies against hunger and <lisease of which science as yet knows no. thinig. WIth curious senrch and industry, Da. PoRocEat souight out aund followedi all the clues, th:routgh whatuvor medIum,* wleIh milght conduct hint to time new truth ; anid the result is. this most coplins aunt comnpres hoimuive dlectioniary.of Sourlhern resource: whethwr for peace or war, for heititli or <ti sentse for roil to proenre andr art to mai:nipu-t late, nri reduce to humnun use. W hethecr, as regardis staple or farm cultitre, the propier mo(des for raising cotton:, rice, enmgar, indigo corn and the cereals, or tihe humbler ambiitlon of tihe fruit, vegetable and gar deni grower. in all (of thtese our author lisbeen almost equally solicitious to pro cume the comapletest linraion: and give the wisest counsel. No Interest is over tooked, hardly a single olbject of use, how aver unknown or however much despised, aind tIhe volume rises into the rank of a his tory, as essential to that of the South in gen eral, es any that teaches the p)rogress of so cloty and its experiences through tihe two: hundred years of its pIast existence. Thte book may and should bre kept alongsidle thte StAle's history of its civil and military af faIrs; of Its growth anid development in hut man respects and character. It provides a fining auxiliary arid companion volume to every such history in each of the Southern States. The style of theo author is clear and unaf fected, neat and suflciciently compact. Hie seldom fails below his subject. and exiibts nosi vain ambItIon to1 rIse above It. In his preface, lie narrates tihe nianiner of huis pro Sgress, with:out assumntion as wvithout disguise. * The alphabetieal index to the COMMON nasmes of plants will gratefually meet the needs of the simnpl practical, while the in - dox of the botanIa names of genera and species, will satisfy tihe scientinec student, to whom the comm9n names may be unfia' miliar. These indexes are valunble additions to the work, hecessary, in fact, in a volume so crowded with its thousand topics not one of which is without its interest and value to the people of the South. It shouid be in the iibrary of every Southern household and deserves to be well thum bed. The volume, beautIfully printed on fine paper, wlih a clear noew style is from the press of blesars. Walker, Evans and Cogs, well, who have ncquritted thremselves of their share of the wvork with the most commeondat hl. skill, neatness and good taste. It is a * large octavo, neatly bound, anid contains inore than sovon hundred pages of letter press. Such a ublication is hishl honora'. ble to our local literature, e.specially whetn we consider under what circumstances it was originally prepared, under what dis,. pourn g apets of society, It has been rc * pabilshen such handsome costume. Frons Charleston Daily News, July 28th. OUR FIELDS AND FORESTS. We are glad that Dr. Porcher has met .safflelnt encouragement to warrant him In Y ssuing a second edition of his very vaiuable work.

Dr. Porcher in this book, points ont and descrIbes, both for the learnet and unlearned reader, no less than five hundred substances, possessing ever variety of use fulh quaility, all to be fotund within the limits of the Southern States; and for all of which, lhe it remembered, there is a ready market.

The mer chant, factor, planter, farmer, physician and surgeon, mechanic-the representative of every sphere of activity. will find in it much that will gratify and reward. Notices of first edition. Opinion of Mr. Ravenel, as expressed in a letter to the author. On the whole, I have boon surprised at its general accuracy. and freedom from typo graphical errors, knowing as I do from ex, perience. how difficult it is for the printers to be correct in scientific terms. The con, nection between practical medicine and Botuny opens a vast, very vast, and almost unexplored field, and yoar book lays the foundation for its study and application. It will take its place at a standard wora on that subject, and in course of time will need corrections, additions and amendments. O#icial communication from Sur geon-General S. P. Moore, C. S. A.,-To the author upon the com pletion of tho task assigned him. The comprehensive information displayed in the preparation of this work has been fully appreciated by the pubilo, and Very flattering notices of its issue have been gie on by the press to which it has been freely distributed, with the request that as many as possible of the more valuable extracts be rep ublished. Permitme to say that your labors have met with the approval or this office 'which takes pleasure, whilst expressing its appro elation of the manner in which you have accomplished the task undertaken by you; at the same time to compliment you on the ability with which you have enlightened the profession and society upon matters, a full knowledge of which is so important. The work has been distributed widely among the MbDIOAL OPF0Btns. From Southern Illustrated News, Richmond, Va. We incline to the opinion, that a more useful work has never been issued from the American press. * * 0 Alost particularly do we commend this work to the notice and acceptance of fami% lies and house wives, who would not sup% pose from the title that it contained any. thing that would be specially suited to their tastes and wants. l'hey wtill discover that no hook of receipts ever publihed is more comp-kct of serviceable hints and suggestions. Indeed in this point alone, it is worth alt the "E.iquire Withins" and "Things Worth Knowing" that were got up with such pro fusion for sale in the Southern States.
