Feb. 2nd, iSGO. 23-3m FEVEIl AMD AGUJE, from which mankind suffer over a large part of the globe, is the consequence of a diseased action in the system, induced by the poisonous miasm of vegetable decay, inis exna- lation is evolved by the action of solar heat on wet soil, and rises with the watery vapor from it While the sun is below the horizon this vapor lingers near the.earth's surface, and the virus is taken with it through the lungs into the blood. There it acts as an Irritating poison on the internal viscera and excreting organs of the body. The liver becomes tor pid and fails to secrete not only this virus, but also the bile from the blood. Both the virus and the bile accumulate in the circulation, and produce violent constitutional disorder. The spleen, the kidneys, and the stomach sympathize with the liver, and become disordered also. Finally, the instinct of our organism, s if in an attempt to expel tne noxious lnm sion, concentrates the whole blood of the body in the inter nal excretories to force them to cast it out. The tdood leaves the surface, and rushes to the central organs with congestive violence. This is the Chill. But iu this effort it falls Then the Fever follows, in which the blood leaves the cen tral organs and rushes to the surface, as if in another effort to expel the irritating poison through that other great ex cretorythe skin. In this also it fails, and the system aban dons the attempt exhausted, and waits for the recovery of strength to repeat the hopeless effort another day. These are the fits or paroxysms of Fever and Ague. Such con stitutional disorder will of course undermine the health if it is not removed. We have labored to find, and have found, an antidote, AYER'S AfcrL'E CURE, which neutralizes this malario'-s poison in the blood, and stimulates the liver to expel it from the body. As it should, so it, does cure this afflicting disorder with perfect certainty. And it does more, or rather does what is of more service to those subject to this infection. If taken in season it expels it from the system as it is absorbed, aud thus keeps those who use it free from its attacks ; keeps the system in health although exposed to the disease. Consequently it not only cures, but protects from the great variety of affections which are induced by this malignant influence, such as Remittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb, or Masked Ague, Periodical Head ache, or Billious Headache, Billious Fevers, Neuralgia, Rheu matism, Gout, Blindness, Toothace, Earache, Catarrh Asthma Palpitations, Painful Affections of the Spleen, Hysterics, Col ic, Paralysis, and Painful Affections of the Stomach and Bow els, all of which, when arising from this cause, will be found to assume more or less the intermittent type. This " Ague Cuke " removes the cause of these derangements, and cures the disease. This it accomplishes by. stimulating the excretories to ex pel the virus from the system ; and these organs by degrees become habited to do this their office of their own accord Hence arises what we term actiimatalion. Time may ac complish the same end, but often life is not long enough, or is sacrificed in the attempt, while this " Ague Cure" does it at once, and with safety. We have great reasons to believe this is a surer as well as safer remedy for the whole class of diseases which are caused by the miasmatic infection, than any other which has been discovered ; and it has stiil anoth er important advantage to the public, which is, that it is cheap as well as good. prepared by DR.

AYEU'S CIIEKKY I'JECTOKAL, has won for itself such a renown for the cure of every varie ty of Throat and Lung Complaint, that it is entirely unne cessary for us to recount the evidence of its virtues, wher ever it has been employed. As it has long been in constant use throughout this section, we need not do more than as sure the people its quality is kept up to the best it ever has been, and that it may be relied on to do for their relief all it has ever been found to do.

Jan. 5. 19-ly Wilmington, N. C. Facts for Farmers. 1 Mutton can be produced, pound for pound, at less than half the price of pork ; it yields more nourishment when eaten, and keeping sheep does not exhaust a farm to the extent that feeding hogs does. Sheep can bo kept through the winter on bay or turnips, or mangel wurtzel, or sugar beet, while hogs will not uo without at least some corn. Land planted with corn without manuring it, does not yield half the crop it would if manured ; while rais ing corn on nearly all the farm wears out the land, wears out the men and horses and farm implements, and, while doinrr all this, returns but a comnarativelv small amount for labor, and will eventually make that man poor who practices it. The most economical aud nourishing food lor a funnly in the whiter, is white beans or white peas, the latter of which can be kept free from bugs by shelling or thresh ing them when ripe, and then immersing them in scald ing hot water for about one minute, which, while it de stroys the egg that produces the insect, docs not injure the vitality of the pea. bo says the-1 atent Olhcc ile port for 1849. Peas thus treated can be spread upon a sheet and dried by the heat of the sun, and one bushel of them will, I know by experience, go as far iu a family as a barrel of flour. Cows fed during the winter, on any kind of moist food, as potatoes, turnips, or other roots, will give more milk than it led on bay or corn, or anything else of a dry nature. It would be to the advantage of farmers to confine their attention exclusively to the farms, and let all specu lating business alone ; for, if farming i9 worth following at all, it is certainly much better to attend to it well than to have the minu divided between it and some oth er object. It is best, moreover, lor fanners to raise crops of every variety that their land will produce which are saleable in their vicinity ; tor by following this plan, if one crop fails, or is not so much in demand, some other will probably be found to compensate the loss. Goward's Register. New Kinds ok Wheat. A writer in the Indepen dence Beige thus satirizes the wayn which the produc tiveness of new kinds of grain is estimated : When a man buy3 a new kind of wheat at its weight, in gold, it is (mite natural that he should take the great est care in the preparation of the soil in which he plants it. lie selects the best spot of ground he has, with the best exposure, and watches it continually after it has come up. Let a weed start near the dear grain, it is immediate ly pulled up, which gives a very beneficial cultivation to the plant. And when the grain is ripe the heads are cut ofl with scissors while they are moist, so that not a kernel shall be lost ; they are placed in a handkerchief, and the threshing is done on a parlor table, by rubbing them in the hands. So, then, "the crop being weighed and measured, a calculation is made that if a surface as large as a pocket handkerchief gives such a yield, a large field say an acre would give so much. Then the calculator goes on to estimate the increase over the present production of wbeat in France, were this kind of wheat sown in stead. How to Grow Ptiidica Every Vr. The following, by a correspondent of the Ohio Culti vator, is worth a trial by all Iovcm of the delicious fruit: Procure your trees grafted upon the wild-plum stock. The tree partakes of the nature of the plum, being hardy, and will never winter-kill ; and putting out late in Spring, will never oe injured ry tne frost ; and it is a cer tain preventive against the working of the peach grub, while the nutural life-time of the tree is beyond that of our own ; w you may depend upon peaches every year, and for a long period of time, without "the destructive and discouraging influences attending the growth of the common peach. They can be obtained at from fifty to seventy five cents per tree, and you had better pay five times the amount, than not obtain them, and be ccr itain of peaches every year. Try it, and our word for it, you will be satisfied with the result. Ex. Paper.
