We observe that while the course Of the
Hon. II. MARSHALL, and the other seceders from
the Wing caucus, is almost universally condemned
by the reliable Wing press Of the South, it is
warmly commended by the Democratic press.

Of the Times, few days SINCE also entered the

from the Wing caucus is denounced by all the

indiscreet, and unnecessary while the Democratic
papers are warmly praisne him for doing what

bring for exhibition thereat portions OF your stock
the products Of your orchards and OF your gardens
Don't presume that any animal, or product, you
may own is inferior 10 others that Will be mere,
and be thus deferred from bringing them, as 1t Is
only by comparison that the relative merits OF any
thing can be determined. The safer presumption
for you to arrive at, will be that what you nave
is as good, if not better than that Of others, ana
that it behooves you to gallantly enter tne st o.
competition: if defeated honorably. and the high
character of the Judges is guarantee that you
can be defeated in no other way, you VIII ENJOY
the luxury of knowing that others were more en-
tiled to success than yourself.
And while we address you to bring such articles
as are properly in your department, we crave per-
mission to solicit your interest, to induce your
oivss and daughters to bring whatever appertains

cultural work, called the

AGRIcULrURE,"
BY HENRY STEPHENS, F. r. s., OF Edinburgh, au.
thor of the Book Of the Farm, &C., &C.; assisted
by JOHN 7. NoRroN, M "A, New Haven, Professor
OF Scientific Agriculture in Yale College, &c, &c
This highly valuable work will comprise two
large royal octave volumes, containing over 400
pages, with l8 or 30 splendid steel engravings,
and more than 600 engravings on wood, in the
highest style Of the art, illustrating almost every
implement of husbandry now in use by the best
farmers, the best methods Of ploughng, planting,
haying, harvesting, &C., &C., the various domes-
tic animals in their highest perfection; in short,
the pictorial feature of the book is unique, and
will render it of incalcuabe value to the student
Of agriculture.
The work is being published in sem-monthly
numbers OF "a pages each, exclusive Of the Steel
engravings and is sold at 25 cents each or As for
the entire work in numbers Of which there will be
at least twenty-five.
The British Periodicals re-published are as fol

AND
BLAcKwooD's EDINBURGH MAGAZINE (Tory).
Although these works are distinguished by the
political shades above indicated, vet but a small
portion ofther contents ia devoted to political sub
jecs. 1t is their literary character which gives
them their chief value, and in that they stand con.
iessedy far above all other journals oftheir class.

Christopher NORTH maintains its ancient celebrity,
and is, at this time, unusually attractive from the
serial works Of Buwer and other literary notabes,
written for that magazine, and first appearing in
its columns both in Great Britain and in the United
States. Such works as "The Caxtons" and I'M y
New Novel; Doth by Bulwer,) "My Peninsular
Medal, ""The Green Hand" and other serials,
Of which numerous rival editions are issued by the
leading publishers in this country, have to be ref
printed by those publishers from the pages o.
