DBEMH, the diaooTerer, who baa removed to Baltimore, Md., where be can bare aooeaa to ibe (.arest and best medicine, on the moat favorable term. He will aiwajre keep on hand a larjre mipplr, and will sell to bit customer, wholesale and retail, at the shortest notice. In the preparation of these very niperior snd excellent Pills, no cost or trouble is spared to insure the greatest possible degree of perfection, in point of utility, excellence and comfort. They contain one article which has probably never before been need as a medicine, and which is a powerful agent in cleansing tb Liver, (which gives tltem an advantage over every oilier Pill heretofore offered to the public.) The comoosilion used in these Pills is carefully pre pared by the band of the diwverer, and may be used by the roost feeble pstient in the most delicate situation, either male or female ; and from their peculiar combination are highly strengthening, mild in tbctr action on the bow els, and indeed, io a climate kite ours where colds and couifbs are almost an unfailing con sequeuce ol the sudden clianges to which all are witect, every one at all liable to suffer from the influence of these causes, will find the great est security in having his liver and bowels well cleansed by these invaluable I'llls. Where these Pills are known, especially in the southern States, where they have been cir culated so extensively, they need no recom mendation their merits are so well known by Uiaar laaulia. mmtmn hmm a 1 - tion that lias brought them into great oemand. They therefore are destined to be, at no distant day, the only remedy recognised and ued by tlte people where bilious diseases are so preva lent. The advantage in Ibis treatment there fore, is, that a cure must be radical and com plete without the necessity of breaking down the system in one part to remove a disease in another. , They can be sent to any point in the United States by Mail or Express.

As a preliminary she gave a "tea party" at her residence in ooston.

The bye-pi sees, of tba farm where in weeds harbor comparatively Doticed and unharmed, are prolific source whence they spread, and strongholds last taken by tba agf.ro site farmer. To tha easy, alotbfol farmer, ilioj are impregnable, aad from their comtnandtag aosatuoo, hold his pasaiotas forever ander rjaasiuloti. PiotninenVmoftg tlteae harboring places arc iheTence corners, and tlev are esteciaTTy favorable to the weerhj when partly filled with rubbish or lone Irom the fields. There new va rieties are often first introduced by means of birds, or from the fence opposing a barrier to those downy seeds that float in the air. There, too, the sood find a congenial place to grow ; there is shade, rich toil, and they are nndistnrbed by machin ery. Often the rubbish or stone pilee are so dense as to protect the weeds against the farmer's efforts to uproot them. Consequently, they mature their seed, and it is scattered. A patch of couch grass may exist for years in a fence corner unnoticed ; out when its creeping roots strike oat far enongh for tha plough to tear them, they are distributed far and rapidly over the field, and every joint becomes a new plant wherever it permanently lodges, jsjaaicauoo, then, is nearly impossible. The road sides, which ought to bo scrupulously kept clean, are too often safe harbors ing places for weeds. Manure heaps eon lam inp; these seeds are frequently neglected until the vigorous growth induced has bronght the plants to maturity ; and many spots around farm buildings aud yards are onsight- ly trom a dense annual gr-wui Tn abort, the farmer iv set grow, a weed will nounsn ana occu py the room. Nature abhors an unt .aa A l 1 prolific soil. It is tho tanner s ousi ness to see that all plants which grow on his premises are beneficial to his. interests. HOW WEEDS WORE IJtJUKT. If farmers would more closely con sider the detriment to their iatereata which arises from the presence ana growth of weeds in the soil, they ill . . .,. nnil mnra W0111U D6 lllClieu to grcaioi - united effort to accomplish ther ex tradition. Fertility of the soil is di minished mainly by the crops grown on and removed from it. Weeds rob it of much plant food without returning any eqn ivalontto the farmer, and in most soils available piani ioou in uw so abundant but that the growth of weeds diminishes the yield of the cultivated crop exactly in proportion to the amount Lot the elements of that crop thus abstracted. Let any farmer observe his field closely at harvest time, noting the great variety and mass of plants which the soil 1 :.l. .I,,-, a Mn liA AllltlV supports, uoaiwca w vate6, then estimate tne w.nnwu yield which would have resulted had the elements which formed these been given to the orop, and he wtfl feel in hia pocket how detrimental to ... .r .i 2 rrk Uvul his interest are in weeua. u uwi. crops yield most abundantly, and to . i I " ilw. -.,r.,l.,iii fpniw tneir coraparativo irewv . weeds this reauU may bo ohiefly aa cribed. Aud here wo win snggvav that good farming demands that all irrain crops be cultivated at different stages of their growth. Besides the toss weeue occaaaou the cultivator by diminishing tha yietd of hts crops, they iraposa oj WLVi large aindtfnr of trarernurierav -tive labor. Io fitting tha ground for sowing the seed, in cultivating, har vesting and oleaning the grain, tha presence of weeds in tba soil aud crops causes much extra work to be performed.
