Ec0AisuED IN hCHMOND, VIRGINIA.,
.4t the to,o price Of ONE DOLLAR per AMMAN,
> the cheapest weekly newspaper south of the
i Potomac, and cheap as any in the Union.
This paper is made up chiefly from the Daily
Dispatch, consisting Of the entertaining and
news matter of that sheet, and carefully selected
light literature and poetry.
Hucn K. PLEAsANTs, Principal Editor
II Is designed to make it equal to any Weekly
sheet in the Union for it's general interest. In
tone and sentiment, it is Southern-its conductors
are Virgnians, and they hope to merit and re-
ceive the encouragement of their fellow citizens
They enter upon no mere speculation in their en-
terprlze, nor are their views and opinions shaped
merely to catch the popular breeze. From edu-
cation, from position, from association, from in
terest, from choice, they are Southern men, Their
defence Of Southern rights is defence Of them
selves and all they hold dear;-that it has been
warm unremittng and as far as their capacity al
lowed, vigorous, no man who has read their sheet
will deny. To doubt that it will continue to be
so is to presume that the principles and ideas
which have been insted into them from their
birth, can be eradicated, at period Of life when
men rarely change their views They, at least,
know 1t to be impossible.
| LTThe low price at which the paper is pub
lished requires that the subscription be paid al
,oays in aduance.

EDITED BY AN ASSOCIATION OF LITERARY MEN
Under this title will be published, during the
~ year 1850, twenty-four Portraits and Biograph
cal Sketches OF American citizens who have become
llustrous in the service OF the country. Every por
ton OF the work will receive the most careful atten
on, and nothing will be spared to render it wort Inv
mad enduring monument to the great men OF The Re
public
Mr.. Brady has been many years engaged, at great
expense, collecting Portraits ior National Gal
lcry, and those which being engraved for this
work are believed TO be superior to any that have
ever been taken. In the accomplishment of this grea,
object he has experienced the utmost courtesy and
encouragement from distinguished men Mr. Brady's
reputation has been too long established need any
recommen ndation- His daguerreotypes are in the
highest sense the works OF art glowing with tie soul
OF the living countenance.
The dra wings and engravings of D'Avgnon hav e
been pronounced by Europeans of taste TO be fully
equal and IN some respects superior to those Of the
best artists OF London and Paris and every i'm
preston in this Gallery will be taken under his i'm
mediate supervision. The Typography will be exc
cuted as carefully and in superb style the
cravings themselves. The entire work will be on
the finest imperial folio paper, l6 by % inches, made
expressly for this purpose.
This work has nothing sectional in its scope ; il
win therefore be comprehensive in its spirit The
names of those men only admitted whose talents
and public services have Won for them IN honorable
fame throughout the nation Each of the great de-
partments of life Will have its representatives. Art
and Literature universal in their spirit and the
Gnllery is intended to be worthy and enduring mon
ument to the great OF the Republic, whose
achievements and fame constitute the chief glory OF
the nation. We hope that every lover Of Art and
friend OF our glorious Union, will respond to our ap
peal for encouragement and aid in commendable an
undertaking, that It's publication may make an era in
he progress Of American Art, and by grouping TIE
illnsrious men OF the Union together, consolidate it
still more firmly.
and the prices they sustain in Europe would place il
beyond the reach of most Of our citizens the publish
ers have resolved TO merit large circulation, by
charging very low price They have, therefore.

BLACKWOOD'S MAGAZINE
AND THE
BRITISH QUARTERLY REVIEWS
Premluma to New Suhscrihcrs

OWING to the late revolutions and counter-rcvo
" lutons among the nations OF Europe, which hav,
followed each other in quick succession and Of which
the" end is not yet, the leading periodicals of Great
Britain have become invested with degree of inter
est hitherto unknown. They occupy a middle
ground between the hasy, disointed and necessarily
imperfect records OF the newspapers, and the elabo
rate and ponderous tYeatses to be furnished by the his
torian at future day. The American Publishers,
therefore, deem it proper to call renewed attention to
these Periodicals, and the very low price at which
they offered to subscribers. The following is
their list, viz:
THE LONDON QUARTERLY REVIEW,
THE EDINBURGH REVIEW,
THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW,
THE WESTMINSTER REVIEW,
BLACKWOOD'S EDINBURGH MAGAZINE
In these periodicals are contained he views, mode
raely, though clearly and firmly expressed, OF the
three great parties in Engand-Tory, Wing and Ra-
dical-" Blackwoodo and the GO London Quarterly D
are Tory the "Edinburgh Review % Whig and
the &C Westminster Review " Liberal. The q North
British Review y owes its establishment to the last
great ecclesiastical movement in Scotland and is not
ultra in its views on any one o. the grand depart
ments of human knowledge; il was originally edited
by DIR. Chalmers, and now, since his death is con-
Quoted by his son-in-law, DIR. Hanna associated with
Sir David Brewster Its literary character is of the
very highest order. The " Westminster" though
reprinted under that title only, is published in Eng
land under the title of the Foreign Quarterly and
Westminster y it being in fact union OF the two
Reviews formerly published and reprinted uader sepa-
rate titles. 1t has therefore the advantage by this
combination of uniting in work the best features
of both as heretofore issued.
The above Periodicals reprinted in New York,

To have Green Beans, Peas. a amd
Corn in Winter. Gss

A gentleman says he saw in January
green peas as succulent, to all appearan
ces, as they were when plucked from the
vine FIVE or six months before. The
mode of preparing them is, to pick, wher
of proper size for eating, shell and care.
fully dry in cloths in the shade. All the
care necessary, is to prevent them from
moulding; this done, they will be fine and
sweet the following spring. Beans may
pc preserved in the same way; and With
perfect success.
Green corn may be preserved in the fol
lowing manner: "Pluck che ears of the
green corn when fit for boiling strip of
the husks, and throw the ears into ket-
tie of boiling water: leave them in until
the water boils over them, when they must
be taken out; shell off the corn by run
ming the prong of fork along the base Of
the grain, holding the ear with one end
against the breast; this is more expedi-
tous, and saves all the grain, including
the heart or germ, which is the sweetest
part.
After being thus prepared, it must be
spread out ON cloths, in shady, airy place
to dry. 1t should be stirred every day
until dried thoroughly. When cooked it
should be put in cold water and boiled
about an hour or more, the water to be
pretty well boiled of. When the water
is nearly off,a little milk added will i'm
prove the taste.-Ma1iSon Tribune
