commencement of session, and then,
perhaps, in few weeks they will all be
exhausted We say again, that those
who want the Congressional Globe, or the
Appendix, must subscribe and send the
money for them by the 10Th Of December,
else they will not probably get them.
Persons subscribing for the Congress
siona Globe, or the Appendix, should be
careful TO name tho State, as well as the
post Office to which they wish the paper
sent, as there are many post offices of the
same name in different Staies--Pars, for
example. We received money from Par

and We have not been able, up TO this day,
TO find out from what State il was sent 1;
and the person who sent it has lost his
money. The rules of the General Post
Office requires the post masters TO endorse
the name Of the State on every letter, but
many OF them neglect 10 do il.
Every man in the country who desires
10 be informed Of the public history or the
public men Of the country, should read the
debates of Congress. Our foreign affairs
and the domestic concerns of every Sec
ton Of the country pass under review in
Congress. The discussions embrace men
and things, present and past history; and
the best faculties and highest altainments
are directed to their calculation. II is

acclimating he more difficult genera.
5. Analysis Of soils and planls--and
suggestions Of methods of analysis within
the means of Mississippans; discussing
also the propriety of geological and az
ricultural survey Of the State by legislative
authority.
6. Manufactures and he Mechanical
Arts, established within the bounds OF the
State, important to the agricultural in
terest.
The premiums 10 be awarded by COM
mittee Of thirteen agricultural gentlemen,
TO whom shall commit all the essays for
adjudication, by such subdivisions of labor
among themselves as they may agree up
on---the unsuccessful essays to be at the
disposal of the editors of the Farmer.
The essays to be forwarded TO me, free
of postage, by the first of March next
accompanied by sealed envelope, enclo-
sing the authors name.
In connection with the foregoing, in
tended to submit an address-setlng forth
reasons why an agricultural paper should
be sustained in the Southwest; but, |
leave that duty to be better performed by
the many pubic.spirited gentlemen whom
this prospectus may reach--entertaining
all, who feel the magnitude of the cause,
to mount their horses, forthwith, and spend
q day or two in endeayors 10 form clubs of
subscribers. These clubs will be the nu-
cle for for presently forming societies, es-
tablishing agricultural libraries, holding
neighborhood fairs, &c.--thus cementing
the community together, in the execution
Of one common, grand design.
This is certainly favorable moment
for gaining the public attention, when the
excitement of politics is.about to subside
for season,
The planters Of the State should make
il common cause 10 demand Of the Le-
gislature geological and agricultural sur
vey of the State. 1t shall be one of the
leading aims Of the Farmer, to concen-
,rate public opinion on this point, SO as TO
make it efficient upon our functionaries.
Though long delayed, shall ever conti-
nue. to hope for the accomplishment of this
measure. If the agricuturalists of the
State would unite in demanding it, it
might be effected by the Legislature to be
elected in November, 1915. Say, fellow
citizens, will you aid us in our endeavors
to reach the public ear, on topic SO i'm
portant to the welfare Of our State?
We are so arranging our bushes as 10
admit of our riding much through the
country; and we hope to spend at least a
third of our time in visiting our patrons in
different sections. We shall endeavor al
so, one or the other, or both of the editors,
TO be present at all fairs or cattle show
held in this or the adjoining States.
In conclusion, | would state, that it is
my intention to devote myself more d.
rectly TO the interests Of the paper than
heretofore; and am assured by my CO.
adjntor, that he will take time 10 visit far
mers, and will give much more of his at
tention to the cause than his situation has
heretofore permitted.

DR0SPECTUs or THE CONGRESS.
SIGNAL GLOBE 81 APPENDIX.

These works have such Il wide circua.
ton, and have been so universally op.
proved and sought after by the public, that
we deem il necessary only in this pros.
pectus to say that they will be continued
at the next session Of Congress, and to
state, succinctly, their contents, the form
in which they will be printed, and the
prices Of them.
The Congressional Globe is made up
OF the daily proceedings of the two Houses
of Congress. The speeches of the men,
bers are condensed to bring them into a
readable length, All the resolutions, Of
fered, or motions made, are given in the
movers own words; and the yeas and
nays on all the important questions. 1t
printed with small type--brevier and
nonparcl--on double royal sheet, in
quarto form, each number containing III
royal quarto pages.
The Appendix is made up of the Presi'
dents annual message, the reports of the
principal officers Of the government tina
accompany it, and all the long speeches
Of members of Congress, written out Of
revised by themselves. 1t is printed IL
the same form as the Congressiona
Globe, and usually makes about tho SAM
number of pages
Now there is no source but the Con
gressional Globe and Appendix fror
which person can obtain full hlstor
Of the proceedings Of Congress. II
now recognized, by resolution, as the at
then,ic report of proceedings, the earle
volumes having been purchased for tn
use of members, and for the COMPRESSION
nj library. Gales g. Seaton's Register {
Debates, which contained history, wa
suspended in the year 1887, aud has nc
since been resumed. II cost about fiy
times as much for session as the Cor
grcssionHl Globe and Appendix, and d
not contain an equal amount of matter,
great portion of the current proceeding
being omitted.
Complete indexes to both the Congre,
sionnl Globo and the Appendix are prin
ed at the close Of each session, and scr
TO all subscribers for them.
Tho reports Of the Congressional Glot
and Appendix are not in tho least degrt
affected by tho party bias of tho editor
They are given precisely as written o.
by the reporters and tho members then
selves, and are subject 10 the rovisic
and correction Of the speakers.
The approach of a Congress which wi
discuss for the American people all II
most important questions ever entertanC
by the national councils, and new and Q,
traordinary measures never before full
veniured upon, has induced the publishe
Of the Globe 10 make greater and beii,
preparation than heretofore for reportr
and publishing the speeches and proceo

All persons who may desire either,

them by the 10Th Of December, else the

to the abserice of Mr. WILLIAMS, the
Secretary, who was lying sick al the

The Country.

Every thing looks magnificent in the
country. Wheat and the smaller grains
never yielded better than they have
the presen, season. The vast corn
crop that has been cultivated this sea-
son. looks more promising than any
we have ever seen. Potatoes and escu-
Tents of all kinds yield most abundanty.
Fruits. such as apples. peaches and
all descriptions Of wild fruit are very
abundant. We believe the only falling
off this season is in the grass crop
Were il not that all portions Of our
country seem to be blessed in the same
ratio that we have been, our farmers
might obtain larger remunerailng prl-
ces; as il is, the low prices for grain
and all kinds OF produce. will lead all
who are able TO hold on with the hope
that prices will be better. There are
several contingencies in embryo which
seem 10 mark out such a course as a
wise one.

New .Subscri5ers--Since the new
Post Office Law went into operation,
which enables subscribers living within
thirty miles of this place to receive
their papers post free, we have had
quite large accession TO our subscrip-
ton list. Wapello, Mount Pleasant,
West Point, Salem and several other
places have about doubled the size of
their packets. We hope they will do
more than ibis, and that others will do
likewise. The large increase of sub
scribers we have recently received from
Fairfield, where there is no such IN
ducemen,, is very gratifying. Although
we say it who shouldn't say it,perhaps,
we think that every why in this region
of country who is able should subscribe
for the Hawk Eve. Two dollars the
price Of subscription be better
invested. While we speak thus. we
would no. be understood as excluding
Democrats from our subscription list.
We have quite number already and
should like more, both for their and
our'own sake.

Flint Bridge.

This Bridge should be repaired with
on, delay. The season for high water
is approaching, when i, will be impos-
sible TO cross. except by ferry. Besides,
in its present dilapldased state it is
more liable TO be swept entirely away,
than i, would be were i, thoroughly
repaired. Who knows but Congress
may make liberal appropriation to
mend the breach that has been made in
consequence of the derelic,ion of duty
on the part Of one of its own agents.
An effort should be made by our Dele
gate to secure such an appropriation.

meantime the Commissioners or those
whose duty il is should see that il is
