ofhis manner of improving a worn out farm
andottlit: sale . of its products the last year;
anikvie regret that from the great micumu•
lit-tion.Of matter on hand, we cannot give his
hitter, We are - obliged to' con.
flint : ourselves with a brief abstraCt of ma
terial facts.
Mr. - Leonard came into possession of 90
acres of cultivated but exhausted land in
Mar,: 1833. In that.yoar the stile of its
products amounted to 85 . 59,88; in 1834,
the isales amounted to,8718,05; ,in 1835 to
•
181,125,04;:imd in 1830,. notwithstanding
the Unflvorable season, and the failure of
Most of his staple crops, to sl,l96,l3 = thus
thAn doubling its products, by• judi.
cious management in three, years. His ex
pense during the last-year, for labor, dung
and- freight,
.amounted. to , 8254,72—thus
leaving him a nett profit on his farm of
• 8912,41-'-or more. than 8100 per acre per
annum. We will quote Mr. Leonard's
statement of the means he adopted to thus
dbubiediefertility of his soil.
"My farm," says he, "was in so . low a
condition that it would not produce more
than ten bushels of iyo, or twenty of corn
per acre; - and as 1 had no other income but
what I could make upon this poor farm, I
set about farming in earnest. found it
was in vain to ttttempt improvement without
manoro, :so I contrived to get about 400
hinds a year,.3oo 'of which I made, tr, the
following manner.' I : have marl, though of
very - inferior quality. I cart about 100
,:oads of thiS into mybarn yard, and by yard
ing my cattle upon it through the Season,
contrive to increase it'to 200 loads. I also
'cart about 50 loads to my hog pen, on which
I keep My hogs tbe•year round. In this
:Way I. got 100 loads mOre,which is excellent
for potatoes, corn, &c., Mid as my farm .is
sitnate pear the bay, I obtain from New
York annually, from 50 to 75 loads of the
best, stable dung, ut About . 84 per load on
delivery, and by mixing it with the earth,
made up the 400 loads. By this treat.
Ment,:.l find my land improve rapidly, and
my income in like proportion. But I am
sOrry.to say there are many farmers among
ue..whe are still pursuing the old land-killing
system, scarcely making both ends meet.—

reiim tha Pittsliurgh Daily Times
The . ./Pailitee illaintfocl firer
in a short excursion to the country at this
delightful season, when nature is clothed in
beauty, and the birds are singing their Ma
ker's liruiseove have seen how pleasantly
many of our farmeie live in these times of
almost universal distress. . While our coun.
try.,'. flourished, the farmers have been reap.
in g a noble harvest for years past, from the
high prices and constaut demand for every
article produced and brought to market.--
We sincerely wish them continued health,
peate and•ha t ipmess.
The limes are momentous, and pregnant
with go4or evil; and we, believe, if there is
`.no iidical and immediate change in the or.
data things, the• distress now so severely
: preying upon the manufacturing, mechani
cal, and commercial interests, will soon find
its:way'to the cottage and fireside of the far
.trier; and that the agricultural interest of our
country will, as it'already does in the South
ern f totes, feel the painful change .of times.
The farmer can do much to save the coun
try, and promote its best interests, to foster
alt branches of business, anti aid all classes
ofindustriouscitizens;while at the same time
hepromotes his own,and secures for himself
a sure rnarket,•that of the operatives of the
cities and towns.
On meeting an old and intelligent farmer
in the street, he justly remarked, that "the
interest of town and country,tho farmer,man ,
ufacturer, and mechanic, are one, and can
not be separated, without - producing loss and
irtconventence to all parties." The town
and country must necessarily support each
other, supply each other's wants and contri
bute to each other's prosperity. -•
Within the last 22 years there have been
two poi iods, when the farmer suffered the
keenest distress, and labored under the most
painful trials: The first was immediately
after the last wnr with Great Britain, when
our manufactories were destroyed and bro
ken up,-our mechanics and workshops de.
serted,ourstores and dwelling houses empty,,
rentis,and produce down to almost nothing- 7
and when farmers, with their produce, beg.
Bed peoplo.to buy at any price! and when;
Asir 'staying the- whole day in Pittsburgh
,striving in vain to sell,and procure groceries
stud oecessartes in exeliatige,they have been
Wirt to take their produce home, and
gt it to the hogs, orlo leave it unsold, or
io iitime cellar or garret!
We have seen flour, good fresh superfine
Burs tell in the Pittsburgh market at from
Witt
a barrel, and from 75 cents
le WIG perewt.; beef, 1 to 2 cents per lb.;
MEM
cts. - Inteorr',"4 to 5 ets.; good
fresh butter, • 6.+ ate.;oati, 124 to •15 ets.i
wheat r dull at 25cts.;.and.other articles' in
proportion; but little money, and few buyers
and consumers; because our Manufacturers
were obliged, to suspend their operations,
discharge flierr handsond lose their capital
the fruit of their toil and induStrY; and our
country overrun with British goods, and sold
at tiny price, to sweep the specie out of our
land, to break down our home industry and
manufactures. A similar time occurred
about 0-years since, at the commencement
of the Pa. canal, when for a time our
energy and industry were paralyzed,
and the productions of the farmer reduced
very low indeed.
Let the farmers resolve to sustain the
home manufacturer, the mechanic, the mer
chant, and the well conducted bank, in their,
own neighborhood,which has by its judici
ous discounts to the manufacturer and me
chanic, or the commercial man, sustained
the country's industry and enterprise. Let
them riot hoard up their money, but put it
out to active and profitable use, when it is
so much wanted by the community. Let
them at once look over their list of balances
due their saddler, shoemaker, blacksmith,
weaver, ploughmaker, school master, iner•
chant, &c., and pay Clem off cheerfully,and
encourage them to go and do likewise. If
no debts are ow ;ng, so much the better.—
Go and purcha se of them necessary nrticles,
and pay for them, and thus encourage them.
Thusyour best customers will all be encour
aged, and made stronger friends and better
customers. Another plan of usefulness,
which will put your surplus money out at
compound interest,(tmd benrfit society, will
be, lo follow the example elan intelligent .
old farmer, who has visited the Pittsburgh
market ter 30 years, and has become ricl6
A. L. H. Y
not by hoarding his specie in his old chest,
but by loaning out his money to deserving
men, and by buying from tune to time bank
stock; on which tic drew his dividend semi•
annually, and with the proceeds, and pro.
ducts of his farm, bought more stock. Ile,
within the last week, gathered all his availa
ble re.4nurces in money together, came to
Pittsburgh, lonned a part to two of our mei.-
chants,and Ica. a thousand dollars with anoth
er gentleman to buy more bank stuck in our
Pittsburgh hanks. Like causes produce
like effects. Two sears, and perhaps in
much less time, with the present system of
things, flour will again be down to 2 or 8:14
bacon, 4 .to 5 cents; and every thing down
to the lowest price; and few buyers. Our
consumers become limners and producers,
or pass into the illimitable 'West; our mane•
factories and Workshops again broken down
and deserted; and all sellers—no money,
and no buyers. • Let our farmers look these
things soberly in the face; let them trace
effects to their true and legitimate causes;
and let them resolve to protect their own
and their country's best interest by using all
thetr power and influence to protect home
industry. AN OLD MERCHANT.

And also a Spring attached to the Girth or

Saddles made upon this plan are incom

in point of strength, durability and elastici

of the spriwr b to the girth is productive of
ease and comfort to the horse, and protects
him from injuries arising from violent or

SADDLES
_ .
Notwithstanding the prejudices against.
these Saddles heretofore, he feels justifiable
in saying, that lie hopes to gain the confi
dence and patronage of the public—as he is
enabled, on the present principle, to ensure,
all his saddles without any extra charge.—
That a soft, easy saddle is desirable to all
persons who ride much, and particularly to
those who may not be favored with a very
pleasant horse; I presume all persons will
unhesitatingly patronize the spring saddles,
when they will be ensured as long as the
purchaser may deem necessary.
The elasticity ofthe Saddle acting in har
mony with the symetry of the horse and
rider, not only affords ease to the man, but
incalculable advantage to the horse. All
persons of judgment and experience must
know, that a dead, unelastic weight on a
hems is oppressive. The Spring in the
Girth affords the following advantages: Ist
Moving or yielding with the horse's chest in
breathing, no cramps or cholics.or any dis
ease can rise therefrom. 2d. The girth will
outlast two or three of the common kind,
because the yielding dare spring on the sud
den expansion of the chest prevents the girth
from breaking, and saves the rider from fall
ing; many falls have heen the fruits of break
ing. girths. - •
GENTLEMEN and LADIES are invi
ted to apply, as the little difference in the
cost of these and the hard Saddles is so tri
fling, and incomparable with the difference
in comfort and safety.
N. B. Saddlei's in the country can be
accommodated with Township or Shop
Rights at a trifling cost.

these diseases have not their origin in impurity

oration could induce the to withhold it. My motto
is, "honor to whom honor is due." I was great

nothing that would roach my disease. It is un
necessary here to state in detail, how much I suf.
fered; suffice it to say, that I have been severely

and that I obtained two bottles ofyour Anti-Rheu

which accompanies it, and that it has banished
every vestige of Rheumatism from my frame.—

Highly Important to the Afflicted.
It will no doubt be gratifying 'to our readers
to learn the . wonderful success which has attend.
ed Mr. P. O'Neill, in the use atilt, valuable Anti.
Rheumatic Medicine, which has boon ascertained
to be a specific not only in Rheumatism. but also
in White Swelling, disease of the Hip Joint, Scro
fula, &c. &a. We aro urged to make those re.
marks, not from the certificates of unknown per.
sons, but from our own knowledge of several im.
portant cures effected by his medicino,which have
created general astonishment. The most inipor.
tant ono is that of Miss E Rohr, the daughter of
our worthy Post.mastor, who, after years of suf.
fering, has been relieved solely by the use of Mr.
O'Noill's modicine—the Medical Faculty having
tried every thing in vain. These aro Miss Rohr's
own statements. The high reputation of Mr.
O'Noill's endorsors justify us in saying that their
statements merit universal credence.
From the Baltimore Chronicle,
Wo are not in the habit of expressing an opin.
ion of the efficacy of Patent Medicines, but in the
case of the above mentioned remedy for Rhouina.
tism, we feel called on, by principles of humanity,
to state that it has had the most surprising ef
fects. The inventor is a gentleman in whom the
greatest reliance can be placed; but ho has other
than his own testimony in favor of the medicine
which he offers to the public. Clergymen. phy.
vicious, and those who have boon mimed, have
borne voluntary witness to its astonishing effica
cy; and those who have the misfortune to be afflic
ted with this distressing complaint may be colour
ed of iminediate relief by resorting to this remedy.
The following is front tho Frodericktown Her.
aid, edited by Win. Ogden Niles, Esq. April Gth,
1833:
Mr. O'Neill's Rheumatic Medicine, offered to
the public in this day's paper, if we form an opin
ion from the character of the maker, and numer
ous certificates in his possession from highly res
pectable individuals, who have been cured by the
use of it, is ono of the most valuable of recant dis.
covery. Its effects upon thove afflicted with duo.
nic and inflammatory rheumatism,havo been truly
Marvellous; a few bottles enabling them to din.
pease with crutches, flannels and bandages, with
which for years they have protected their limbs
and bodies., Mr. O'Neill merits the gratitude of
the afflicted, and the testimony of respectable
physicians forbids those imputations which' are
generally attached to venders of panaceas.

About two years ago I was severely afflicted ,
with tho dyspepsia,which I had for the last fifteen
yearF, previous to the above named 'time, which
was very much increased by my having a blood
vessel ruptured upon my lungs,occasioned by lift
ing—winch increased my complaint, dyspepsa
and general weakness And debility to such a de
gree, that fur twoyeare previous to my using the
Garlegant Balsam, I never eat a meal but my
stomach became so painful that I had immediate
ly to throw it up. Seeing Garlegant's Balsam of
Health advertised, I was. induced to try a bottle;
after taking the very first. dose it appeared to
strengthen my stomach; and every dose of the
first bottle helped ma su much, that in the course
of a few days my stomach began to retain and dig
gest every thing I oat. I continued to use the
Balsam until I used seven bottles, which cured
me entirely, and metered me to perfect health,
which I have enjoyed over since, and not before
for fifteen years.. I cheerfully recommend - it to
all persons who are afflicted with dyspepsia or do.
biltty of stomach. Given under my hand this 11th
day ofJanuary, 1834.

This is to cortify that I bought of your agent at

tont Medicines, but found no relief, until I made
use of .your Balsam of Health, which effected a
radical cure, and do recommend 'it to all these
who aro troubled with that obstinate disorder

Pastor of the Lutheran Church.
JOHN S. MILLI:M....Dear doom it my.
duty to inform you that 1 consider Gar!want's,
Balsam of Health, prepared by you. a. superior
medicine, My wife has lorlt been in a delicate
state of health, and of course no means were left
untried of which we coutd hear; myself opposed:
to nostrums and patent medicines--1 neverthe
less consented to purchase a bottle of your Bal
sam of Health, and I do hereby certify that Mrs..
Sheffer derived more benefit from the use of it
than of any other medicine. My opinion Is that
if a cure can be effected, as regards the diseases
you mention, your Balsam will, if used in the
first stage of the disease.
