PROSPECTUS
FOR PUBLISHING A MONTHLY PAPER
IN BALTIMORE, TO UE ALLED
j _ ,. THE CULT (JKIST.
On subjects connected with Agrit ullure, to include
i an Emigrants’ Department, containing snrh In
formation a* may be useful to persons making a
settlement in the West, or seeking new fields of
agricultural enterprise.
rPlIE SUBSCRIBER proposes to issue a
A monthly sheet, in cjtvirto form, of nixteeti pft«
ges, on husbandry, pastoral affairs, and kindred
subjects : a portion of t tie paper to be occupied
with notices grograpilicn I, mistical and historical
of such portions of the West as will be of most in
terest to Western settlci*s, and also ot portions of
the South.
Agriculture is the most ancient occupation of
mnn. It is also ttie most useful, the most indepen
dent. the happiest, (he most healthy, die most pro
ntable and the most honorable.
But this is not all. Agriculturc comprehends in
itself more science, than any other occupation in
the whole circle of human pursuits and industry
Geology, chemistry, vegetable physiology, all make
a part of the thorough knowledge of this most ex
tensive and useful art . They arc indeed but the
beginnings of the vast tield of knowledge contain
ed within it. So thit i.r a man can be a thorough
agriculturist, lie will be in the largo sense of the
word a learned man.
! farmers however have been, to a great extent
; opposed to what they c ailed . choice, or book-farm
’ 'og, from a mistaken idesv that whatever was in
| print was merely spcc.o.lalive, and matter of theory.
! If it were so indeed, they would bo right in con
demning it. It is how sver a mistaken idea. Sci
once is the result of ex pcricnce and practice. It is
the ripe harvest of f.u t h, reaped not by ore rti-m in
one field, but gathered by nil the laborers tlirou Hi
out all the harvest field,a of the earth in year after
year from the beginni ijr.
very intelligent farmer likes to talk to his neigh
or, and draw advantage from hi* experience -
fins experience is no less valuable for hr in-- de
tvered to him in pnn t, by types, than if it should
be given to him by his neighbor, by word of mouth,
it k the aamc thing-.
Skill in the manual of hoeing and ploughing can
: never make a farmer. It makes only an nop'entice
| in the art. Since tn- multiplication of n^riculto
rnl papers and societies in this country, there has
• been a great improve ment in the stale of agricul
I ture. °
It Is designed to gh-e jn p,;* pfippr a„ f(j)
I -intelligence relating to rural affair* and cron
omy, whether of implement-, stocks, seeds, modes
of culture, articles of cultivation, soil-, or fertilizers*
and such dlscovrriea ofs-ieace as may assist li-ht
, n and make more profitable the hardy and hon
oriiblc toil of (ho fan nor.
A secondary object will he (ogive information to
persons making settlement in the W«| • from per
sonal knowledge mostly—so tbit they will he able
I to make judicious se|PCti .ns, and proceed in the es
tablishing of their now homes to h—t advantage
and some description of the |*nds 0f Maryland and
Virginia, with the modes of renovating them.
I he price will he one dollar, invariably in ad
vance. *

X MAGNETIC FLUID.—This remarkable dis
coverv has received the universal approbation of I
the Medical Profession of Great llritaiu, and has
been sufficiently long before the American public
to give n (ait trial of its power and efficacy The
PATENT GALVANIC KINGS have been found to
answer all the purposes lor which ordinary Galvan
ic Battery or Electric and Magnetic Machines arc
used, but are without any of the injurious ■hocks
which accompany the applications t>y those instru
ments, and in many other respects are more safe
and certain in accomplishing the desired object.
Hie Galvanic Kings have boon used with perfect
success in all cases of Rheumatism, acute or cliroti
ic, applying to the head, face or limbs; Gout, Tic
Doloreux. Toothache, Bronchitis, Vertigo, Nervous
or Sick Headache, Indigestion, Patalysis, Palsy,
Epilepsy, Fits, Cramp, Palpitation of the Heart)
Apoplexy. StifTncssof .foints. Lumbago. Neuralgia,
General Debility, Deficiency of Nervous Energy)
md all Nervous Disorders. In rases of confirmed"
Dyspepsia they have been successful. Their extra
ordinary effects upon the system must he witnessed
to he believed; and as a certain preventive for
the above complaints they are equally to he recom
mended. The Galvanic Kings are in every way
perfectly harmless, and are sold at prices to he
within the reach of all. Cristie's Magnetic Fluid
is used iu connection with the Kings, to render
their efficient action certain, and to direct the Gal
vanic influence to the particular portions which ate
affected.
