PROSPECTUS
FOR PUBLISHING A MONTHLY PAPER
IN BALTIMORE, TO BE • ALLBD
THE CUI/rUttINT.
On sub] crts connected with Agriculture, to include
an Er nigranta* Department, containing such in
form; ition ns may be useful to persons 'making a
settle incut in the West, or seeking new fields of
agricultural enterprise.
1'H41 SUBSCRIBER proposes to issue a I
monthly sheet, in quarto form, of sixteen pa
ges, on husbandry, pastoral affair*, and kindred
subjects :—a portion of the paper to he occupied
with notices geographical, statistical and historical
of sucb portions of the West as will be of most in
terest to Western settlers, and also of portions of
the. South.
Agrit ulture is the most ancient occupation of
man. It is also the most useful, the most indepen
dent, the happiest, the most healthy, the most pro
fitable and the most honorable.
But t hi? is not all. Agriculture comprehends in
itself r lore sricnee, than anv other occupation in
the whole circle, of human pursuits and industry.
Geolog y, chemistry, vegetable physiology, all make
a part of the. thorough knowledge of this most ex
tensive and useful art. They arc indeed but the
begin nings of the vast field of knowledge contain
ed wi ihin it. So that if a man can he a thorough
agric ulturist, he will be in the large sense of the
word a learned man.
Farmers however have been, to a great extent,
opposed to what they called science, or book-farm
ing. from a mistaken idea that whatever was in
print whs merely speculative, and matter of theory.
If it were so indeed, they would he right in con
demning it. It is however a mistaken idea. Sci
ence is the result of experience and practice. It is
the ripe harvest of fac ts, reaped not by one man in
one field, but gathered by all the laborers through- I
out all the harvest fields of the earth in year after J
year Irom the beginning.
Every intelligent farmer like* to talk to his neigh- >
or, and draw' advantage from his experience'.— j
This experience is no less valuable for being de
liverer! to him in print, by types, than if it should
he given to him by his neighbor, by word of month.
It is tire same thing.
Skill in the manual of hoeing anil ploughing can
never make a farmer, ft rnr.kr* only an apprentice
in the art. Since the multiplication of ngricultu.
ral papers and societies in this country, there l»a*
been a great improvement in the state of a eric ul
lure.
ft is designed to give in this, paper all useful gen
eral intelligence relating to rural affairs and cron
ornv, whether of implements, storks, seeds, modes
of culture,article* of cultivation, soils, or firtili/ rs;
and such discoveries of«rienre** it.ay assist, light
en and make more, profitable the hardy and hon
orable toil of the farmer.
A secondary object will be to give information to
persons making settlement in the West: from per
sonal knowledge mostly-so that they will be able
to make judicious selections, ami proceed in the es
tablishing of their new homes to b *t advantage,
and some description of the lands of Maryland and
Virginia, with the modes of renovating them.
The price will be one dollar, invnriably in ad- j
vn ncc.
Agricultural and Emigration Societies, and oth- j
ers who subscribe for one hundred copies or more
will be Supplied at $75 per hundred.
Post master! and country collcc-ors are ramie.fed I
to act as agents. All such will be allowed 20 pc.
cent; and any person sending five dollars will have

T»*E PATENT GALVANIC KINGS, &
1 MAGNETIC FLUID—This remarkable dis
rovcrv ban received the universal approbation of
the Medical Profession of Great Britain, and has
been sufficiently long before the American public
to give a fair trial of its power arid efficacy The
PATENT GALVANIC RING.** have been toiiml to
answer all the purposes for which ordinary Galvan
ic Battery or Electric and Magnetic Machines arc
used, but are without any of the injurious shocks
which accompany the applications hy these instru
ment*, and in many other respects are more safe
an«l certain in accomplishing the dt’-aired object.
! fie Galvanic Rings have been use..* with perfect
success in all cases of Rheumatism, acute or eliroii
ic, applying to I he head, face or limbs ; Gout, Tic
Doloreux, Toothache, Bronchitis, Vertigo, Nervous
>r Su k Headache, Indigestion. Paralysis, Palsy,
Epilepsy, Fits, Cramp, Palpitation of the Heart,
Apoplexy, Stintless of Joints, Lumbago. Neuralgia
General Debility, Deficiency of Nervous .Energy,’
and all Nervous Disorder*. In cases of conliiimid
Dyspepsia they have been successful. Their extra
ordinary . fleets upon the system must be witnessed
to be believed; and as a certain preventive tor
the above complaint* they are equally to lie recom
mended. The Galvanic Rings arc in every way
perfectly harmless, and are sold at prices to be
within the reach of all. Cristie'k Magnetic Fluid
is used m connection with the Rings, to render
their efficient action certain, and to direct the Gal
vanic influence to the particular portions which arc
a fleeted.
