4 4 pete Gazetteer of the United States. Edited

The publishers take pleasure in announcing the
completion of this, the most elaborate, cOmprehen-
sive and perfect Gazetteer of the United States that
has ever issued from the press. In its preparation.
no consideration of expense labor have been al
lowed to interfere with work designed TO be per-
feet as possible in every department, and in its de-
tails Nor have the successive issues of other Ga
zetteers hurried through the press TO claim the
ket emptedthe publishers to ofor their book before
all the ample Census of 1850, and other materials in
the hands of the Editors, were fully digested and
accurately arranged
When this Gazetteer first announced, 500
pages, or 900 at the most, designed the limit
of the book; but so vast the amount Of matter,
accumulated through the personal labor of the edi-
tors and their assistants, well through the ac-
tive efforts of several thousand COrrcspondentsin all
parts of the United States the work has sweled to
near 1900 pages The amount of new matter it con-
tans is very large, in many instances embracing
Statistics and populations to 1858. This gives it an
intrinsic value every other work of the kind in
existence.
We therefore offer our Gazetteer confidently, as
the only complete, accurate and thoroughly reliable
Gazetteer of the United States. Price 81.

From the Baltimore Patriot we learn some
interesting incidents connected with the life
OF Gen. Armstrong, late OF the Washington
Union. He was native of East Tennessee,
and was in his six.y-ffth year. He was an
early friend of Gen. Jackson, and the init.
mate relations contracted in the early part
Of their lives, continued without interruption
until the close of Gen. Jackson's life, who as
an evidence of his regard, presented Gen. A.
with his war sword. Few men enjoyed the
confidence of the Old Hero SO long and SO
closely, and although his influence with him
was almost unbounded, yet he refused the re-
wards Of place and continued in the humble
post of postmaster at Nashville, until the
election of Mr.. Polk, when he accepted the
Consulship to Liverpool. After the election
of Gen. Taylor he returned to Washington,
and assumed the control and ownership of the
Union newspaper.
Gen. A. vas no carpet soldier, but earned
his titles by active service in the field, his
highest rank being conferred while engaged
in the Florida war. He was a volunteer in
the campaigns of lSl3-'l5, and was severely
wounded, while defending field piece at the
battle Of Talledega, against the Creek In.
dams.
In private life he was distinguished for all
those noble and generous qualities which be-
long to the neighbor and friend, although his
political opinions were decided, and his party
Proclivities strong, yet they were in subordi.
nation in social intercourse. He was q
modest brave and patriotic man, universally
lamented.

Germ Speculation.

Our corn dealers are determined not 70
take their present adverse pros poets at all to
heart. They seem determined to make up in
fun what they don't make up in money. Last
week there was scarcelya merchant in tow n
but what had bought from ten to one hundred
thousand bushels of corn; just now, they
harn't got quite SO much. Some have only
been buying "to fill ORDERS" while others
have nearly sold out clean before the fall
We would advise them all to play their hands
