FARMERS' LIBRARY.
Prospectus of the Farmer's Library, and Monthly
Journal of Agriculture. John S. Skinner, Edi
tor. None can well have studied the true sources
of National welfare, without perceiving the natu
ral and friendly connexion existing between Ma
nufactures, Commerce and Agriculture. The po
licy which strikes at the prosperity of tho Manu
facturing conmm'cr, must damage the Agricultural
producer, and neither can be injuriously affected
without detriment to the Merchant, at once con
sumer and earlier for both. As, however, the ele
ments of manufacturing and commercial industry
must'be derived chiefly from the soil, is it not the
obvious interest of all other classes that the one
"which gives to all their employment and subsist
ence, should be encouraged and benefitted with
every advantage that science can confer and the
most enlightened itidustiy make available? Yet
at has not been until comparatively a late period
in Europe, and still later in America, that the pub
lic mind has been made properly 'sensible of the
necessity of science to Agriculture, and so to re
spect Farming as essentially an intellectual and
dignified pursuit one which should imply for its
followers high mental cultivation and various
'Attainments. Happily, however, educated young
men are now betaking themselves to Farming, as
a business, which, like the learned professions,
3ias its own principles and will have its literature ;
and truly it may be asked what subject has lately
;given rise to memoirs and works more profound
.and instructive, or been fruitful of more interest
ing results of scientific investigation, than Agri
c.ulture 1 Who, among modern Literati, enjoy
more enviable distinction than JLiebig and John
ston, and Boussingault and Candolle The taste
Tor Agricultural Literature in our country, thanks
to the able journals, that encourage it, keeps pace
-with its progress in Europe. The more fully to
tmeet the demand thus created, we have decided
to publish on the first day of July, and monthly
"thereafter., the Farmer's Library and Monthly
Journal of Agriculture, to be edited by John S.
Skinner, late Assistant Postmaster Ueneral and
founder of the first Agricultural periodical pub
lished in this country.
Far from being designed or in any way calcu
lated to affect Injuriously the circulation of exist
ing journals of less price and wider circulation,
they may supply the Farmer's table with lighter
and more agreeable refreshment, while in the Li
brary he may may find more solid as it will be
more costly food.
Each number will consist of two distinct parts,
viz. :
I. The Farmers1 Library, in which will be pub
lished continuously the best Standard Works on
Agriculture, embracing those which, by their cost
or the language in which they are written, would
otherwise seem beyond the reach of nearly all
American Farmers. In this way we shall give
for two or three dollars the choicest European
treatises and researches in Agriculture, costing
ten times as much in the original editions, not
easily obtained at any price, and virtually out of
the reach of men who live by following the plough.
In the Farmers' Library they will be accompanied
by notes from the Editor, explaining what may be
obscure to American readers, or calculated to mis
lead the beginning in Farming, owing to differen
ces of Soil, Climate, &c. The works published
in the Library will form a complete series, explor
ing and exhibiting the whole field of Natural
Science, and developing the rich treasures which
Chemistry, Geology, and Mechanics, have yielded
and may yield to lighten the labors and swell the
harvests of the intelligent husbandman. The
"work will be so arranged that the Farmer's Libra
ry may be bound up by itself, forming a mam
moth volume of 600 pages at the end of each year; ;
or each work contained therein may be bound se- j
paralely.
II. The Monthly Journal of Agriculture will I
likewise contain about 50 pages per month, and
will comprise, 1. Foreign: Selections from the
higher class of British, French and German pe
riodicals devoted to Agriculture, with extracts
from new books which may not be published in
the Library, &c. Jc. 2. American: Editorials,
communicated and selected accounts of experi
ments, improved processes, discoveries in Agri
culture, new implements, &c. In this department
alone will oais resemble any American work ever
yet published. It can hardly be necessary to add
that no Political, Economic, orolher controverted
doctrine, will be inculcated through this magazine.
Its price will be Five Dollars a year in advance,
for two royal octavo volumes of 600 pages each
Each number of the Library will be illustrated
by numerous engravings, printed on type obtained
expressly for this work, and on good paper the
whole got up as such a work should be. If it does
not prove the best as well as the amplest and most
comprehensive Agricultural work ever published
in this country, the fault shall not rest with the
publishers, and we are sure it will not fall short
for want of industry or devotion in the Editor.
The low and definite rate of postage chargeable
on such a periodical after the 1st of July say
six to eight cents a number will enable many to
take it who would otherwise have 'been repelled
by the heavy and capricious exactions of the Post
Office. As Postmasters are permitted to frank
money letters to publishers until that period, and
as we wish to print only so many copies as may be
wanted, we respectfully solicit orders from all who
may incline to aid us, as early as will suit their
convenience. Address

Worms Kill Thousands.
CHILDREN are most subject to them, but per
sons of all ages are liable to be afflicted with
them. Had breath, paleness about the lips, flush
ed cheeks, picking at the nose, wasting away,
leanness, pain in the bowels, joints or limbs, dis
turbed sleep, frightful dreams, moaning and some
times a voiacfous appetite, ate among the symp
toms of worms. Many are doctored for months
for some other imaginary disease, when one box
of bherman s Worm Lozenges would effect a cure.
Dr. Ryan, corner of Prince street and the Bowery,
cured a man of worms that was reduced to a skel
eton, and by only one box of Sherman's Lozenges:
he is now as fat as an alderman. The Hon H.
B. Beardsley has saved the life of one of his chil
dren by them. The sale of over 2,000,000 of boxes
has fully tested them. They are the only infalli
ble worm destroying medicine known. What
family will be without them I
Consumption, Coughs, Colds, Whooping CoUghs,
Asthma, and all affections of the lungs, will find
a healing value in Sherman's Cough Lozenges.
They saved the Rev. Richard De Forrest, the
Rev. Mr. Streeter, Jonathan Howarth, Esq., and
that worthy old hero, Leonard Rogers, from the
consumptive's gtave. They cured in one day, the
Rev. Mr. Dunbar, the Rev.' Mr. Ilandcock, Wm.
II. Altree, Esq., of distressing coughs. They are
the pleasantest cough medicine and cure the soon
est of any known remedy.
Headache, Sea-sickness and Palpitation, re
lieved in from five to ten minutes by Sherman's
Camphor Lozenges. Persons attending crowded
rooms or travelling will find them to impart buoy
ancy ofspiiits and renew their energies- Those
suffering from too free living vvilifind a few of the
lozenges"to dispel the horrors' and Iowness of
spirits.iX Mr. Krauth, of the Sund'tir Mefcurv, hits
repeatedly cured himself of severe-headache byv
mem. Uaptatn Uhadwick, of the packet ship
Wellington, has witnessed their efficacy in a great
many cases of sea-sickness. They operate like a
charm upon the agitated or shattered nerves, as
Sherman's Pour Man's Plaster does upon rheu
matism, lumbago, pnin or weakness in the side,
back, breast, or any part of the body. Mr. H. G.
Daggers, 30 Ann street, Henry R. Goulding, 35
Chatham street, Mosos J. llcnriques, Esq., and a
multitude of others have experienced the wonder
ful effects of these Plasters. Price only 12 1-2.
cents. Caution is necessary to see that you got
the genuine Sherman's Lozenges and Plasters, as
there are many worthless articles attempted. to be
palmed off in place of them, by those who Would
trifle with your life for a shilling,

received and for sale at the Republican office.

Spitting of Blood,
Night sweats and pain in the Side.
Jonathan Haworth, Esq. the well known Tem
perance Lecturer, was attacked with a cold front
sleeping in damp sheets, in the winter of 1811. H
neglected it at first, but soon found it assuming 1
somewhat alarming aspect, and then resulted tv
the various remedies usually recommended forlunjr
complaints. When one thing failed he tried an
other, until he had exhausted his patience and the
whole catalogue of remedies. His cough was al
most incessant, so that he could get little or no
sleep attended with pain in his side, spitting of
blood, night sweats, and all the usual symptoms of
Consumption: While at Rome, (N Y) he felt that
his end was nigh that in that place he must soon
end his journey of life. Providentially, a lady
who visited him advised a trial of Dr Sherman's
Cough Lozenges. He accordingly sent and got a.
box, and the first dose gave him more relief th.in
all the other medicines he used before, ily the
time he had taken one small box, he was able to
start for the city of New York, and in three weeks'
time he was perfectly restored to his usual health.
He often announces the fact to his hearers, when
lecturing on Temperance, and says he awes Ins
life to Dr Sherman's Lozenges
From the Cincinnati Daily Times, of Jan. 4th 1341.
Coughs The variableness of the weather this
winter has caused an unusual number of persons
to be afflicted by colds and coughs scarcely a.
family has escaped; and with many, carelessness
in attending to a cough, has laid the foundation for
consumrjtion. Our familv has not escaiwd the
general affliction, but owing to a remedy, used
for the first time, they were speedily cured. Sher
man's Cough Lozenges, which we were induced
to try, proved what they are represented to be. and
affected a cure in a few days of a troublesomo
cough, which appeared so deeply seated thjt
seemed doubtful if it could be removed at all.
