PROPOSAL SFOR PUBUSIIINF A Temperance Journal I TN COLUMBIA, S. C. 1 nRIHE State Temperance Society of South Carolina, .at the late Anniversary Meeti ing, in Columbia, resolved toucstabhsh if pra:j ticable, a Weekly Newspaper, devoted to j the cause of Temperance. The Executive j Committee, whose duty it is to carry this j resolution into effect, beg leave to address the j several Societies and individuals, in the State j engaged in this good cause, upon this interee; ting snbject. The incieasing prevalence and ruinous effects of the use of intoxicating liquors, call loudly for some decisive measures to rouse public attention to this direful evil, ariu imita : the counsiis and efforts of the bcncvolentand | patriotir, in arresting its progress. No means seem more wisely adapted to accotnplis h their purpose, than such a dissemminatiou of facts and statements upon me cuojoxt us j would be effected by sucli a publication. The ; labours, experience and investigation of the , friends of Temperance in the Northern States, | have accumu'ated treasures of knowledge and I bargumeuts in tins cause. Bui these valua tie materials arc excluded from our communi! y. by their being mingled with speculations hoside in our domestic institutions. The way therefore, in which the interesting details and powerful reasonings, contained in ttlie Temperance publications of the north, can be given to the public there his rough the columns of the proposed paper. It is thus manifest, that the best interests of our State, and the progress of the Temperance Reformation so vitally important to pubiic safety and happiness will be most effectually promoted by a general j circulation of the Temperance Advocate. The following plan will regulate the publication. It will contain? I. Original communications and domestic intelligence relative to the general subject of Intemperance. II. Copious extracts from Books, Pamphlets and Newspapers, published in other States to promote the Temperance cause. III. A weekly summary of general and domestic news, prices current, &c. As the friends of Temperance, the expected patrons of this Paper, belong to different political parties and religious denonvnations, all discussions of a controversial or- sectarian character, both as to politics and religion, will hn scrupulously excluded, f Tho general design of the publication is to j furnish every family in the State, desirous ol ; obtaining it, with full information and authrnI tic documents as to direful evils of Intemperance, and the necessity of Reformation. As the commencement of such a Publicaj can only be warranted by a large subscription ; a strong appeal is made to the officers of Tem! perancc Societies, and the friends of the cause to whom this Prospectus may be sent, to use prompt and active exertions to obtain as many subscribers as possible. CONDITIONS. : The South Carolina Temperance Advocate ) will be published weekly, at Columbia, on a j uper-royal sheet, equal" in contents to the j Columbia Telescope. The price to subscri; bcrs will be Two Dollars and Fifty Cents 1 per annum, if paid in advance, or Three Dollars, at the close of the year.

Practical and useful knowledge t adapted t<> the necessities of society, will always find a market, and lie sought after with an avidity proportionate to its estimate and importance. The thirst for knowledge which so fvghly distinguishes the present period should be hailed with universal satisfaction and it is a cheering reflection that the doors co widely thrown open, that none are so poci as to he deba-ed. The success that lias attended the dissemmination of tlie I'ennj , Magazine, has induced the proprietors to issu( his prospectus for the publication of the i American Journal of Scientific and Usefu 1 Knowledge and it is hoped that its merit wil be sucli as to entitle it to a liberai pa'ronnge without clashing with the interests of o'licrs or of underrating the merits which many o them undoubtedly possess.

Baden Corn.?The great productiveness of this corn lias now hnen '. ftiablished beyond conlrovery. Kvery one who has tried if, tinder every circumstance, has pronounced it the host yielding corn which can be plan'ed. This has been the result both North amUtscuth. During the past season, a friend of ours gave us a few seed, which planted us a quartcrofanacre.- The seed being scarce, we had to plant it, seven by five feet apart, and between hills, wherein Irish potatoes wore growing. The corn was planted in April, and as the potatoes were dug in, the earth taken from them was hauled up to the corn. From the quarter acre thus a!tended, we gathered ten bushels and one quart of good corn. When the corn was in mutton, it experienced a heavy gale,1 which destroyed at least one bushel of it. The crop was badly attended in every particular. Had the seed been mo e closely planted, and the crop carefully und properly attended, we feel little hesitation in be. lievinzlhat the yield would have be-^n dou. O * bie. Along side of the same corn, on the same land, under the same culture, our common j flint corn was planted; and from oi.e acre ! not over twelve bushels were gathered. The Hadcn corn is celebrated for its nu| merous production of ears, which, though ( not remarkable for their sze, will, when shelled and measured, produce to the; size of the car, a larger quantity of grain-than anv other species we have tried. In the presence of several gentlemen this fall, we selected several cars of cur common Hint corn, and several of rhe Ha. den. The cars of the flint averaged in length eighteen inches?the Baden otify ten. Yet, in every instance, the Baden corn, when she led, out measured the other. The difference was in the cobs. The cob of one being unusually large; the other very small. The Baden corn makes a good homony, keeps well, and yields blades in abundance. The following letters on the subject .will fully corroborate what we have above stated in favor of this valuable corn. Extract from a letter of a gentleman in the State of Ohio. "I think my Baden corn (the product of eleven grains planted the year before) has exceeded the productions of all your correspondents so far as 1 have seen any account. I have no hesitation in pronouncing it at least 103 per cent, better as a general planting crop, than any other species of corn that we have in the barrens. I diviJ. ed die product of these eleven grains into four parcels, which was enough to plant four acres. The best parcel, I put upon about three fourths of an acre remote from any oilier corn?the ground was the ordi. nary post oak barrens and had been partially manured?I had it ploughed twice, harrowed, and laid off four by five feet, I dropped one grain in each hill to about half and two gruins in tho remainder of tT.e ground. It came up finely. I plucked off the suckers from two rows and suffered the remainder to take its course; it sent out generally strong shoots, frequently equaling in size the main stalk, an i numbering from two to seven?each in most cases producing corn. It grew remarkably thrifty, assuming a deep rich grcrn with an abundance , of fodder, and the stalk attaining in some instances, na elevation cf 13 and 14 fi ot. i It promised, when in the silk, a remarkable result. In one hill (die production of two ! grains) there were nine stalks hearing twen* ' ty one cars of corn. These were counted by myself, and two of tny neighbors, who | came expressly to see it, and who judged . that such corn would yield one hundn tl , and twenty bushels to the acre. Unfortu3 nntoly for the experiment, about tho time r the corn began to harden, a heavy N. W. 5 gale, with some hail, swept over and pros. { frated at least onethirJ of it; yet from the [ three fourths ot an acre, I gathered 80 I bushels. This corn was ploughed twice, I run through once by the ctrf ? vat or and re , ccivo I ouc hoeing. Two other acres wen planted in other parts of my corn field anc ^ received the usual cultivation of my crop II The last acre was planted with the most in ' i (V?rinr corn, bain? tin tin and ond nubhit ,f | corn, with my new ground corn, and ykd ; ded beyond my highest expectation?. I d>< II not mcast'ro it, but I am convinced ilia !? oach acre produced double the qu inti*y o '* my ordinary crop, j I am so well satisfied with the superio ! pro ific qualities of '!?' Baden corn, that " | shall plant my prirc'plc crop with it ne.v ,f! year."' l(j j From the Ohio ileraiJ atu Gazette. GREAT PttODCCT OP BADEN CORN. c 3b. Harris\-~-\ am induced to send yo nn account of the product perncro of th " j Baden corn, of which yoa noticed sorr I time since a specimen stalk at my stori j That was grown by Sheriff Henderson, or n-! ripened 'o perfect-on. Mr. K?win Euclid, raised the Baden Corn on two } and a quarter rods of new cleared land in ! the corner of the field, and the product wan at the rate of 2IS bushels per acre of shellj ed com. Me manured the land broadcast, and planted three in a hill, three and n half feet apart every wav. Mr. Crosby of Euclid, also has railed about the same qunnTitv, and with (he fike success. . dfow, sjr, it clcory proves that if ik/mers wiil their lands properly, and not sparingly use manure, they can raise as much on one aero as is usually raised upon four.

We shoul I judge that no! one kernel saturated by saltpetre was toueh. ed, while almost every hill in the adjoining rows suffered severely. No one who lyijl examine the field can doubt the efficacy h i preparation. He will be as onished nt | the striking difference between the five rows { and the remainder of the fi?M. i Here is n simple fact, which if seasonably I and generally known, would have, saved i ma ty thousands of dollars 'o the farmers i of this county alone in the article of corp. ; It is a fact which should be universally ; known, and is, in all probab btv one of the ! greaest discoveries of modern times in jbir ' neglected science of agriculture. At ail | events, the experiment should be extensive. I ly tested, as the results arc deeino J certain, while the expense is comparatively nothing. Mr. M. also stated the result of anotin f experiment tried upon one of his apple trees . ; last spring. It is a fine, thrifty, healthy I tree, about 20 or 30 yonrs o'd, but has no. 1 ver, in any one year, produced over about J two bushels of apples; wiu.'e in blossom 1 !

'Mr.'M. was led to m;ike tii? ! experiment by reading nn account of trees ' j .adjoining a meadow where p!.ts?er had been j cown at the time there was n light bredfeo j in the direction of the orchard, the tre** j contiguous to the meadow bearing well* * | while the o hers produced no frui'.
