A Mixture of Salt and. Lime has been
found to prove very valuable In raising, wheat
crops ihis season. The trials have realized
ihemost sanguine expectations in many places.
Turnips also prove with this composition
ire wed upon the soil. Sulphate of soda ( Ed-
eom Salts) has been of equally great value to
potatoes. J his, with an equal quautiiy of ni
trate of soda, is thought by .some even better.
A Pine Lob, twelve feet long, sawed in the
St. Clair mills last week, which made two
thousand two hundred and fifty-seven feet of
one inch boards ; 16C3 feet of it being clear
and 954 of it common lumber; quaking it worth,
at our mill prices, the snug Units sum of twenty-otic
dollars.

More m or in oil Tresblci.
Jvotwithftanding the sacred promises made
jn their recent treaty with the State authorities
of Illinois, the Mormons still continue their de
predations upon the inhabitants of the adjacent
country. The house of Mr. Crawford, near
Warsaw, was recently entered, during the fam
ily's absence, and every thing of a portable na
ture stolen from it. Col. Warren, in an ac
count of the affair, says :
" About the samo time, two splendid horses,
the property of L. Chandler, and several heads
of Catde, were stolen from, the neighborhood.
Oilier robberies of similar character were, also
committed. A man who was driving a herd of
cattle towards Nauvoo, and a noted Mormon,
was encountered by General Hardin, who find
ing that he was unable to account for them in
as satisfactory a manner as he could have de
cired, sent him a prisoner to Quincy. Wilcox,
whose disappearance while on a visit to a friend
in Nauvoo, created so much excitement, has
not vet been heard from. A German named
Dabenheyer had also disappeared, and his body
was found in a ditch near the house of a Mormon."

Counterfeit on the Trenton Bank.
This morning a counterfeit of the notes of
the Trenton Bank of the denomination of ten
dollars was presented at the Bank. It is the
first counterfeit of the kind. Its whole appear
ance is different from that of the genuine notes.
At the top of the note is an engraving of Miner
va sitiing, and a ship in full sail ; at the right
end a large figure of Minerva standing ; and at
tbo bottom the Eagle coat of arms.
The signaiures are fairly executed. The
noie is dated October 21, 1845, and made pay
able to J. Conk. The engravers' names are
Harris & Sealy, Ne,w York "-State Gas.
Great Oxen.
Three oxen, weighing 10,000 pounds each
were exhibited at the Brighton (Mass.) Cattle
Show last week.
It is estimated that $25,000 in wages were

burg and vicinity.
MEASLES.
Dr. Smith's Advice.
The Measles appeared in Europe about the Karoo
time with the small pox, and have a great affinity
to that disease. They both came from the same
quarter of the world, are both infectious, and sel
dom attack the same person but once. The Mea
sles are most common in the spring season, and
generally disappear in summer. The disease it
self, when properly managed, seldom proves fatal;
but its consequences . are often very troublesome.
Our business is to assist nature to throw out the
eruption. Blood-letting is almost certain death.
Nothing ever discovered has done the work so
fiently and effectually as DR. SMITH'S (Sugar
Coated) " Indian Vegetable Pills." You need not
force them down either.

Congressional Intelligencer.
The Proprietors of the National Intelligencer
in order to meet the wishes of those whose cir
cumstances or inclination do not allow them to
subscribe even to a weekly Washington papper
during the whole year, have determined to is
sue during each session of Congress, a weekly
sheet styled "The Congressional Intelligencer"
to4)e-devoteil exclusively to the publication, as
far its limits will permit, of the Proceedings
ofeboth Houses ol Congress, and Official Re
pons, and Documents connected therewith, in
cluding a complete official copy of all the Acts
passed by Congress during the session.
To bring the price within the means of eve
ry man who can read, the charge for this paper
will be for the Jirst session of each Congress
half a dollar.
The price of the " Congressional Intelligen
cer," to be issued on each Wednesday during
the approaching Session of Congress, will there
fore be one Dollar, paid in advance. To en
large upon the value, to those who lake no
newspaper from Washington, of this publica
tion, coniaiiiiug an impartial but necessarily ab
breviated account of i tie Proceedings in Con
gress, including an authentic official copy of
all the laws passed during the sesiion, would
be needless. The man who takes no such pa
per, ouglit to take one, if he dues not prefer re
maining ignorant of what moat nearly concerns
his own destiny, and that of his family and of
his poicruy forever.
When six copies are ordered and paid for by
any one person, a deduction of oneixih will
be made from the price: that is to say, a re
mittance of Five Dollars will command &ix co-

PROSPECTUS
For Reviving and Publishing a Weekly Paper en
titled THE NEW-YORKER
The New-Yorker, a Weekly Journal of Liter
ature and General Intelligence, was established
by the present Editor of The New-York Tribune
in March, 1834, and discontinued, 01 rather merg
ed, on the establishment of the Weekly Tribune,
in September, 1811, after having been published
just seven years and a half. Having now ample
and able Literary assistance, aud having recently
extended and perfected our Mechanical arrange
ments, we propose to revise and re-issue it on and
after the 1st of October, 1845, on a sheet slightly
differing in size or character from the old New
Yorker, but at a much lower price.
The plan of this paper will combine
1. Original Literature Reviews, Poems, etc.
2. Select Literature Tales, Sketches, extracts
from new Books, etc.
3. Miscellany Letters from Europe and -different
parts of our own Country, Statistics, Anec
dotes, &c.
4 Hints on Domestic Economy Agriculture, In
ventions, Recipes, &c.
5. General Intelligence -Foreign and Domestic,
including Political events, Proceedings of Con
gress, &c. &c.
Tin's last department will be carefully prepared,
and will be as ample and varied as that of any
other Weekly paper whatever. The extensive
correspondence and other facilities for obtaining
information which we have been years engaged in
concentrating on the Daily and Weekly Tribune,
will enable us to present early and authentic ac
counts of all transpiring events through this our
cheaper Weekly, from which Political essays and
all matter of a partisan character will be careful-.
ly excluded. In hne, The isew-Yorker will oe
simply and truly a Family Newspaper, of moder
ate size and the lowest possible price, intended
for such readers as either dislike Political discus
sion or prefer to obtain this portion of their intel
lectual aliment through the gazettes of their res
pective localities We intend that no matter to
which rational men of any Political. Religious or
other persuasion can object shall appear in this pa
per, though a large portion of its contents will ap
pear also in the Weekly Tribune.
The New Yorker will be published every Sat
urday morning, but printed and mailed on Thurs
day and Friday, so as to reach as many of its pat
rons as possible before the Sunday rest of the
Mails. It will be printed on a sheet of fine
whito paper, identical in size and quality with that
of the Daily and Semi-Weekly Tribune, (of which
this is a specimen,) and afforded to the subscribers
at the low price of O.ne Dollar a year, payable
always in advance.
Twelve copies will be sent a year for Ten Dol
lars, or Twenty-five copies for Twenty Dollars.

POPULAR LECTURES
ON
SCIENCE AMI ART
DELIVERED IN THE
Chief Cities and Towns iu tile V. 8.
BY DIONYSIUS LARDNER.
Doctor of CiTil Law, Fellow of the Royal Societies of London
and Edinbu rgh. Member of the Universities of Cambridgs
and Dublin, and formerly Professor of Natural Phi
losophy and Astronomy in the University of
London, &c. Scc.
The publishers announce that DrLaidner hay
ing brought to a close his public Lectures in this
country, they have availed themselves of the op
portunity thus presented to induce him to prepare5
for publication a complete and authentic edition of
these Discourses. The general interest which for
the last four years they have excited in every part
of this country is universally felt and acknowl
edged. Probably no public lecturer ever contin
ued for the same length of time to collect around
him so numerous audiences. Nor has there been
any exception to this favorable impression. Vint
after visit has been made to all the chief cities,
and- on evety succeeding occasion audiences a
mounting to thousands have assembled to hear
again and again these lessons of useful knowledge.
The same simplicity of language, perspicuity of
reasoning, and felicity of illustration, which ren
dered the oral discourses so universally accepta
ble will be preserved in the published report, which
will indeed be, as nearly as possible, identical with
the Lectures as they were delivered.
The publishers feel that in the volume now pro
posed they will present to the American Dublic a
most agreeable offering, and an interesting and
useful miscellany of general information, which
Will also afford that large class of persons who
have attended the Lectures, an agreeable means
of reviving the impressions from which they have,
already derived so much profit and pleasure.
The subjects which will be included will en
brace a variety of topics in the Astronomical and
Physical Sciences, and in their application tr the
arts of life. Among these the following may be
mentioned:
The Plurality of Worlds; The Sun; Ths Moon ;
The Planets; Tho Comets: The Solar System;
The Atmosphere Popular Fallacies; Artificial Il
lumination; Light; Sound; Electricity; Galvanism;
The Bridge Water Lecture; Lunar Influences;
Weather Almanacs; Babbage's Calculating, Ma
F.lflntric and Magnetic Teleeranhs: Tha
Telescope and Microscope; Galileo; Copernicus;
Lavoisier; Newton; The Stellar Universe; The
Power of Steam; Steam Navigation; Aurora Bore
alis; Water Spouts; Thunder and Lightning; The
ory of Dew; Heat; The Barometer; The Thermom
eter; &c &c
The work will appear in numbers, or parts, wm
be well printed on good type,' and copiously illus
trated with engravings on wood. It will be com
pleted in ten or twelve numbers, and the entire
volnme will be published within six months. The
price will be 25 cents for each number.
Any person wishing to procure this valuable
work may apply to our agents, or to any of the
Booksellers or Country Merchants in any part of
the United States. Postmasters remitting one
dollar will be entitled to five numbers. Qrdsra
are respectfully aoltcitedrr
