Root CrOpS.--No season can afford more
convincing proof of the uncertainty of the
weather than the present one. A week closing
i8th March, was delightfully."- pleasant, the ther
mometOr making one day in the shade 7O0, and
was beginning fast to show its effect on vegeta-
ton; frost rapidly leaving the soil, which it had
done in loose soil to the depth Of six inches
But on the 10Th, fearful wind, and that from
the coolest quarter, blowing for 81 hours, and
continuing stormy cold and gloomy since, has
Eealed up all as tight agair as midwinter, and
doubtless to market gardens will prove a con-
siderable loss in early crops of vegetables.
Those who had started their hot-beds previ-
Gus to the bad weather, will have had their
hands full to have saved their plants-a worse
fortnight for this operation it has never been
our lot TO experience.
The rush of work when the weather is fairly
open, WILL we fear, leave no alternative but to
do some very imperfety; especially will this be
the case, where every means have not been
employed to forward other operations that could
be done, SC that concentration Of all the
strength could be. applied to cropping Mt the
first opportunity.
Foremost among these will be the the root
crops, the soil for which requires to be deep,
moderately rich and well pulverised, as the
object is to afford every facility for the forma-
ton of the root. 1t is best to SOW these crops
in beds of about six feet wide, with an alley be.
tween each bed of one foot or fifteen inches in
width. This affords better facilities for getting
among the crop to hoe weed, and other neces-
sary operations to be done during the summer.

both purposes. This does we'll sown as late as

FOR ALL THE PURPOSES ORA

THERE has long existed public demand for an

quantity but it is better that any medicine should
be taken judic:Ously. Minute directions for their
use in the several diseases to which they are ap-
plicable are given the box Among the COM

may mention Liver Complaint, in its various forms

when taken to excess. The thousand cases in which
a physic is required cannot be enumerated here but
they suggest themselves to the reason of every

answer better purpose than any thing which has
hitherto been available to mankind. When their

either up or down the river. Regular trips Of steam

P. S.-The card of james Walisms, President of
the Tennessee River NJ. NJ & Transportation Com
pauy," dated at Chattanooga, Jan. Goth, has just
been handed me, in which the price of freight over
the East Tennessee and Georgia Railroad is contras
ted with the route via Chattanooga.
Competition is the life of trade and none have
right TO take exceptions when fairly and hOnoraby
entered into and conducted
In answer to Capt. Williams card, have only to
say that goods and produce sent to the care of the
East Tennessee d Georgia Railroad, shall be carried
Just as cheap, and perhaps little quicker than by
any other route.
The fret ght cards that may be issued from time
to time from Chattanooga viii govern the rates on
the East Tennessee & Georgia Railroad, and the
steamboats, that run in her connection, and do
not expect patronage unless work as cheap as
others, need fear being overcharged or having
their goods or produce delayed. c. WALLACE.
