has been supposed that America was first
Discovered from Europe by the Normans,
who reached some of the shores of Labra

,.. THE POLL EVIL:
The poll evil arises from various causes,
all inflicting more or less injury on the parts
where the disease appears. Hanging back
in the stable when hitched on the halter or
bridle rubbing or striking the back . part
of the head against the ; manger unnatu
ral stretching anapainuil tension of the uga.
mcnt ft the neck by unnecessary tight rein
ing and not unfrequently an accidental
or designing blow on the poll will originate,
flu's disease ; inflamation conies on, and .
swelling appears, not, tenaer ana nainmi.
It is always serious in its nature ana diffi
cult in its treatment Mr. Youratt, one of
tlie first veterinary surgeons ot tbe age,
thus describes tho course to be pursued
when a horse is threatened with poll evil:
'The first thing to be attempted is tg
abate tho inflamation by bleeding, physic,
and the application of cold lotions to the
parts.;.By these rrieans, the tumdr will
sometimes be dispatched. This system,
however must not pe pursued too far. If
tbe swelling increases, and the beat and
tenderness likewise increase, matter will
form in the tumor ; and then our object
wjll be to hasten its formation by warm fo.
hicntations, poultices, or stimulating em
brocations. As soon as any ? matter is
formed, which may be known by tbe soil.
of the tumor, and before It nas time to
spread around and eat into tbe neighboring I
comes the whole art of treating poll evil ;
the opening into the tumor mut be to made
that all: the matter thou run out, and con.
tinue afterwards to ran out as fast as it is
formed, and not collect at the bottom of the
ulcer to irritate and corrode. This can tie
effected by a seton "alone. . The needle
should enter? at the top of . .the trjflmoYJ
Ccnetrate tnrougn tne Dottom, aiw jdo
mught out througlj"ihe'iide of the .neck,
a little below the abscess. .Without any
thing jnorb than this, and frequent applica
tions of warm water to keep the parts
clean and obviate inflamation, poll evil in
its early stage may "usually be cured. If
the ulcer has Ttfen allowed to deepen and
spread, and threatens to eat into the liga
ments of the joints of the neck, it may be
necessary to stimulate its suriace.and per.
haps painfully so, in order to bring it to a
healthy state and dispose it to fill up. This
however, will bo ineflbctual except the
ly to run out of the wound, and tbe appli
skill and anatomical knowledge of the ve.
tcrinary surgeon. .. Ia very desperate ca.
scs it may be necessary, tn order that the
ulcer in its whole extent may be acted upon
by caustics, to divldethgj lament qt the
neefc, by which we'teTO.dribed the
head as almost entirely supported,.: This
may be done with perfect safety; as the
head will be supporter! atbough the lign.
mcnt should be divided between the second
bone and tho head-The divided ligament
will soon unite again, and iu former usol
fulness will be ; restored when the wound
so made is healed."

rp HE subscriber proposes to publish at Calhoun,
X Anderson District, S.C., by tlie first day of
Roptemnet next, a weekly Journal of the above
title, of respectable size, and good paper, and fair
type, to be devoted to the dissemination of politi
cal principles, in accordance wun a strict con
struction of tha Federal Compact, and the doc
trine promulgated by the Jcttersoman Kcpablican
School. As consistent with those principles it
will advocate tha Election ot Wm. If. Harriann.
of Ohio to the Presidency, and John Tyler, cXYirJ
gtma to tna vwe r residency or t&e United States,
and will exercise all honorable means for tha Sub
version oi the present Administration, with a firm
ConTiction that its leading measures are in direct
noalility to tne prosperity and happiness of the
great mass of the Citizens of our Common Coun.
try. rll will observe a mild and dignified tone,
and address itself in plain language to the com
mon sense or every class of citizens for whose
benefit it is designed." It will be the uncompro
mising opponent of that ridiculous system) of pro.
scription for opinion's sake adopted by the presen t
aojninisiratton, and will maintain the true char
acter of in Independent public press,
And although it will advocate the Election of
Harrison and Tyler with all the seal and ability it
can command, as the only hope of restoring the
government to its ariirinal parity and republican
simplicity, it will nevertheless treat, with respect
the opinions of those who differ with us. and its
columns will be open to a temperate discussion of
all political subjects, and it will under no circum
stances become so much of a parti zan, but that it
will scrutinize every act or the Administration for
tbe time-being, and condemn or approve- as- may
redound to the interest of the South. .
The Highland Sentinel will not be exclusirelv
apolitical paper, but will devote much of its col
umns, to Agriculture, Education,' Literature, tho
Arts and Sciences, History, Novelties,. Amuse
ment, the Turf, Field sports, the markets, dtc. and
will use every exertion to present soch a medley

The subscriber, a few weeks since' issued a
prospectus of the Southern Times and General In
telligencer, which was designed to occupy, neu
tral ground in Poliu"c.-fce -'was not aware at the
time that South Carolina would enter the arena of

likely to do. But ha vine been dissanooihted in"
that expectation, and not willing to stand aloof
rrom an important political contest, - has thus
changed bis purpose and has issued this prospec

gentlemen who may be disposed to take an active
interest for the cause of reform, and may-find it
; inconvenient to mix with the community in pro.
curing subscribers between this and the proposed

To tha Ladies of Georgia, and of the South m.
1 -rail Vrtitl following pmn is most reHpeatfullysgk
nutted. . It M hoped that it Wll receirs tlm
serious attention and nieet their approbajj
" since ills for" their wpceil boiieflt that tlie aoci
TN submitting the following plait, ws would ant
A call the attention of the Ladies, and all thwl
who feel Interested (and who are. those that
not ?) m the welfare and iniprovemenl of the F
male sex, to the presentcoliilition of the Sou then
rress. Nearly all the publications which I
from it are engaged in political 1 eUcusskms, ui
their columns -teem with accusations, denisk
abuse and every other form of wordy warfare
carried on in language,' frequently unfit for "can
poNto," and seldom suited to the delicacy and get
tlencss which belong so peculiarly to the Fenialt
character. , . . . -
Of the few literary papers published Sooth a
tne rotomac, there ts not one exclusively dediet
tod to the Ladies Wa bays felt this as a will
which ought to be supplied i and we propose fc
make an edurt to do so, confident that our enda!
vors will be crowned with success, if we can onl
secure the hearty co-operation of those for whom
we propose to labor-THs La dirs or the Sotrrav-4
And we expect, further, that every intellirai
mind among the other sex, will view--with-appf,
bauon, and aid in sustaining, an enterprise design,
ed to improve the minds of those, without what,
cheering smiles and soothing companionship, life
would pe dreary and this fair world a desert.
We wish, abb, to afford to the Ladies a heUt ta
the exercise of their own talents, and for tbe tV
velopemcnt of the resources of their minds. Tb
lists of authors, for some years past, have bt.
quenUy-ensolIed the names of females whose r
rious success bas shed an additional radiance st
the name of Woui." The lords of creaboo
have been forced to acknowledge that the Femslt
mind is, by no means," deficient ia capacity aM
intellectual endowments whilst, at the same tint
jit is possessed orsuperior dtficacy and tact Loa
was woman's muid held m thraldom long were
her powers underrated, and fotC"d to remain in
active or unexercised, by the force of convenuoiai
arrangements ; but her chains are broken, and be
liberty has been proclaimed. The 'article of Mos
lem faith that " women have no -iouIs," no lonrw
obtains among us. Let the ladies now assert thai
svn privileges, and we offer them. In our piopssrs
work, a medium for tha exprers-oa of their on
views and sentiments, on all that appertains, h
any degree, to the welfare and irmjwanienta'
