THE FORESTS OF NEW JERSEY.
A correspondent, writing from Cape May,
chmmutnc&tes the following interesting facts
respecting the forests of New Jersey, He
says :
It may sound strangely to very many of
your readers, hut it is true, nevertheless, that
within a hundred miles of New York, in
the little State of New Jersey, there are
forests almost as dense and impenetrable
as ever stood in the primal ages; forests
through which the light struggles with but
feeble power, and in which to dav unfamiliar
feet would become involved in inextricable
labyrinths. The whole of southern New Jer
gey, in fact, is more or less remarkable for its
immense tracts of pine and cedar. The most
extensive, howevei, are in the counties of
Cumberland and Cape May, lymg on the Del
aware Bay and Atlantic coast. In the latter
county there are conti :tn<us cedar swainp.i of
no less than si venteen miles in length, and
from five to eight ruiles in breadth ; and one
may travel for hours along the narrow roads
without discovering anywhere a clear 'patch'
of ground.
The original growth of trees in these
swauips, which might filly be denominated
dismal, has disappeared ; scarcely any are now
to be found more than a century old. For
merly, it is 6aid, they attained a great age ;
on one old tree, some years since, a resident
counted seven hundred rings of annual
growth ; on another, one thousand and eighty
rings were counted. The trees stand very
thickly in their eaily growth; but, as they
increase in size and are crowded for space?
the tops become thhi, and the trees stand
straight and solemn, like so many mourners,
with mere tufts of foliage floating from theii
summit.
These swamps are very valuable, an acre
of such timber commanding Iroin live hun
dred to a thousand dollars. A peculiar fea
ture of the swamps i? that the soil is of pure
ly vegetable growth, often twenty feet or
more in depth. This peaty earth is constant
ly accumulating from the fall of leaves and
boughs, and trees are found buried in it at all
deplhs quite down t the solid ground. The
timber so buried retains its bu >yancy and
Color, and is considered so valuable that large
numbers 01 workmen are constantly etnplov ed
in raising and splitting the 'ogs into rails
and shingles. In searching f>r these logs the
workman uses an iron rod which be tin lists
into the soil, an I by repeated trials ascertains
the S'Ze and h ngth of tie d he Brnke*,8 r nke*,
and then bv dtggmg down, oli'auis a cli p, bv

ville, in this county, as many as eiaht hun
dred thousand, valued a* twelve thousand dol
lars, have been sent to market in a year.—
From the same place thousands of dollars
worth of white cedar rails are annually sent
out. The deposit of timber at this point ex
tends to an indefinite depth, and although,
from the growth above it, believed to be two
thousand years old, is all entirely sound, and
will supply for- years to come, the dralt upon
it. •
AMERICAN NEWSPAPERS.
It is the pride oi Americans that in pro
prrtl<> to our population we have more than
double the number of newspapers of any oth
er country tn the world. It is not claimed
that our first scholars are better educated
than those of the world ; but it is claimed
that the great body of our people are more
intelligent than are the working classes of
Europe ; and if this newspaper press is not
the cause, it is an evidence of the fact.
In ordinary times newspapers are cheaper
here than there, and every family not on the
list- of paupers may enjoy its weekly visit;
and we do know that families in which the
paper is a regul tr visitor are ra >re inte
▼irtuou and respectable than they would be
without it.
Ilence wo urgo all readers to " Support

endeavored to rob him of the glory of his
enterprise by secretly despatching a ves-e in
the course which he had pointed out. lie

particular assistance in that voi age of discov

hands upon him, becati6e of the miracles
which, God wrought by his means. " So,"

A good story is told of a certain
prominent railroad gentleman of 1 this city,
who is equally renowned for his ability to
make and take a joke. A Railroad employ
ee whose home is ia Avon, came on Saturday
night, to ask for a pass down to visit his
family.
" You are in the employ of the Railroad ?"
inquired the gentleman we have alluded to.
j " Yes."
I " You receive your pay regularly V
I <l Yes."
i u Well. Now suppose you were working
for a fanner instead of a railroad, would you
expect your employer to hitch up his team
j every Saturday night, and carry you home
This seemed a poser but it wasn't.
" No," said the man, promp'ly, " I wouldn't
expect that : but if the farmer had his team
hitched up and was going my way, I should
call hitn a darned mean cuss if he wouldn,t
j let me ride."
i Mr. Employee came out three minutes af
terwarda with a pass good for twelve month*.

" What is the matter?" inquired the offi

The dignitary thought the world of his

and exclaimed ;
" Well, gentlemen, conduct me to the

" Oh, you cau hold it here," answered the

" What! have you disturbed the corpse ?
1 cried the horrified coroner.
" Not at all, sir," was the rejoinder,—the

just want you to hold an inquest over the

A GENTLEMAN riding through Sydenham
saw a board with " This Cottage for Sail''

pleasant joke, and seeing a woman in front of

"Just as soon as the man comes who can
raise the wind, " was the reply.
A gentleman sat down to write a

"THE AGE" will advocate the principles and poli
cy of the Democratic paity, and will, therefore, nee
essarily favor the restoration of the Union as it was
and deten I the Constitution of the United St tos,.rd
that ot this Commonwealth.
It will freely and fairly discuss all legitimate su -
jects of newspaper comment, including of course, and
pre-eminently at this tiu.e, all questionsconnecte
with tlf existing unhappy condition of our ountry
It will fearlessly criticise the public actsof public
servants, and defend the lega and constitutional
rights of individual citizens ant of sovereign states,
against assualts from any quarter
It will seek to awaken the minds of the people 10
a proper sense of the a tual con lition of the Repub
lic—to present to them, tru'hfully, the fear, ul perils
in which we stand as a nation —to exhibit the m igni
tude of the task that is before them, if they would
check our downward progress—and to inspire theiu
with patriotic determination to apply THE REMEDY
for our national ills
In briet, it will, in all things, aim to I e the faith
ful exponent of Democratic principles, .tod to render
itsolf worthy to bo an org in of the Democratic par
ty, under whi.se auspices our country prospered so
long and so well. Th" restoration of that party—
the party of the CONSTITCTIO.V and the UNION- to
power, in the legislative and executive governmen
tal branches of the States and of the Union, we be
lieve to he neces.-aryto avert anarchy, and the utter

J) v Tite peculiar taint or
a)Cx infection which we call
WH SCROFULA lurks in
yf the constitutions of
#i multitudes of men. It
P \ ®'fher produces or is
feebled, vitiated stato
of the blood, wherein
fluid becomes in
competent to sustain
the vital forces in their
vigorous action, and
leaves the system to
full into disorder and
decay. The scrofulous
contamination is variously caused bv mercurial
disease, low living, disordered digestion from
unhealthy food, impure air, filth and filthy
habits, the depressing vices, and, above all, by
the venereal infection. Whatever he its origin,
it is hereditary in the constitution, des< ending
"from parents to children unto the third and
fourth generation ; " indeed, it seems to he the
rod of Him who says, " I will visit the iniqui
ties of the fathers upon their children." The
diseases which it originates take various names,
according to the organs it attacks. In the
lungs, Scrofula produces tubercles, and finally
Consumption ; in the glands, swellings which
suppurate and become ulcerous sores; in tho
stomach and bowels, derangements which pre
ducc indigestion, dyspepsia, and liver com
plaints; on the skin, cruptrrp and cutaneous
affections. These all having the same origin,
require the same remedy, viz. purification and
invigoration of the blood. Purify the blood,
and these dangerous distempers leave you.
With feeble, foul, or corrupted blood, you ton
not have health ; with that *' life of the flesh "
healthy, you cannot have scrofulous disease.
Ayer's Sarsaparilla
is compounded from the most effectual anti
dote® thut medical science has discovered for
this afflicting distemjier, and for the enre of the
: disorders it entails. That it is far superior to
any other reiucdv yet devised is known by all
who have given it a trial. That it does com
bine virtues truly extraordinary in their effect
upon tins class of complaints, is indisputab.v
proven by the great multitude of publicly
known and remarkable cures it has made of
the following diseases : King's Evil or
Glandular Swellings, Tnmors, Erup
tions, Pimples, Blotches and Sores, Ery
sipelas Rose or St. Anthony's Fire. Salt
Rheum, Scald Head, Coughs from tu
berculous deposits in the lungs, White
Swellings, Debility, Dropsy, Neuralgia,
Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Syphilis and
Syphilitic Infections, Mercurial Diseases,
Female Weaknesses, ML indeed, the whole
series of complaints that arise from impurity
of the blood. Minute reports of individual
cases may be found in ATER'S AMERICAN
i ALMANAC, which is furnished to the druggists
for gratuitous distribution, wherein may te
learned the directions for its use, and some of
the remarkable cures wlil- h it has made when
all other remedies hud failed to afford relief.
Those ca-es arc purposely taken from all sec
tions of the country, in order that every reader
mav have access to* some one who can speak to
him of its benefits from personal experience.
Scrofula depresses the vital energies and thus
leaves its victims far more subject to disease
and its fatal result* than are healthy constitu
tions. Hence it tends to shorten,"and does
greatly shorten, the average duration of human
life The vast importance of these considera
tions has led its to spend years in perfecting a
remedy which i® adequate to its cure. This
we now offer to the public under the name of
AVER'S SARSAPARILLA, although it is com
po-ed of ingredients, some of which exceed the
best of Sars"/KiriUa in alterative power. By
its aid you may protect yourself from the suffer
ing and danger of these disorders. Purge out
the foul corruptions that rot and fester in tho
blood; purge out the causes of disease, and
vigorous health will follow. By its peculiar
virtues this remedy stimulates the vital func
tions, and thus expels the distempers which
lurk within the system or burst out oil any
part of it.
We know the public have been deceived b>
many compounds of Sttr*ij>mrilla, that promise
much and did nothing; but they will neither
deceived nor disappointed in ibis, Its vima.
have lioen proven by abundant trial, and there
remains no question of its surpassing excellence
for the cure of the afflicting diseases it is in
tended to reach. Although under the same
name, it is a very different medicine from any
other which ha® been before the people, and is
far mot* effectual than any other which has
ever been available to them.
