The Editor of the Cheraw Gazette has deermined, at the suggestion of the Pee Dee J Agricultural Society, to devote more space :han formerly to Agriculture, and matters pertaining specially to its interests. About nine ;oJunius, or a* page and a half weekly, will be i occupied with this subject, excep" when it ihall be necessary to make room for Executive Messages, and a few other political papers ?uch as every intelligent citizen ought to read. A large proportion of what hail appear under Lhe Agricultural head must, of course, be selected. But the numerous Agricultural periodicals now published in tins country afford Abundant and excellent materials for selection; and, alter a sho. t t ine, the reports, and other papers of teh Pee Dee Agricultural Society will of themselves, form no inconsiderable body of original matter, all of it adapted particularly to this part of the country. And it is hoped, also, that among the numerous in. telligent and enterprising planters of the surrounding districts and counties some may be found who will, occasionally, take the trouble of contributing to the coiutnns of the paper the result of their experience. Among the su jects which will engage the Editor's attention the culture of silk shall not be overlooked. Ample ins ructions will be given, in their proper season, for cultivating rhe murus muhicaulis and making silk. The p.'per will espouse the cause of no party in politics, but shall contain an impartial summary of political inteliigence,and, < ccasionally, able speeches and well written essays (wlu n | met with) fairly discussng the principles and measures of all parties, it is believed that * comparatively s.na.l space devoted to political subjects in this way may be made more profitable to the Farmer of domestic habits, w ho wishes to be acquainted with the true state of the country and qualified for a proper ami intelligent discharge of t lie duties of citizenship, thai. 1 i_ .-ii j r 1. _I. a wnoie uiieei mien, iroiri wt'th iu wtcu, auu year to year, wi,h one-sided discufirions, and he mere quarrels of editors and politicians,? whilst, at the same lime, it will not he calcuated to estrange neighbor fritn neiglnor, or to mislead into a belief that one half of the ; couirry are less patriotic ihan the o her, or > less ardently attai hod to our republican institutions.

SIGOURNEY, Whose "name is so intimately connected with the Literature of our Country and who has justly been termed by the contemporary priss The Hemans of America. Will assist Mrs. Hale in the editorial department. It is with feelings of the greatest pleasure that the publisher of the Book makes this announce ment. The editorial corps wilinow consist o MRS. SARAH J. HALE, MRS. LYDIA II. SlOOl'RNEY AND LOUIS A. GODEY. Mrs. Sigourney will commence her valuable aid with the January Number. The Lady's Book haa always been' noted for the purity of its contents; that marked distinction which characterizes it shall still be preserved ; indeed, with such conductors it will be impossible to go astray. TWENTY VOLUMES Have already been issued. It is usual to announce that a small edition only will be published. Contrary to this, the Proprietor of the Ladv's Book announces that he will publish an immense edition, witli which he hopes to supply all those who will favour him with orders, commencing with the January number. It will be seen by this advertisement that every effort has been made by the proprietor of this work to make it superior to any other in America, and as a 'i lie Lady's Book is probably the rr.si proper that could be desired for Ladies, edited by their own sex and assisted as the editorial department is by the pictorial embellishments it is positively the Boudoir companion. There are other publicatior.9 that advert se Fashion Plates. The Publisher of the Lady's Book wishes it to be dis'inct'y understood that the princi. pal Fashions in his work are coloured, and in every Number, which is not the case with any other work published in this country. UN COLO RED PLATES OF FA SH ION S. Also monthly.
