log-cabin, to the enjoyment of all the beauty and com- 

 forts of a luxuriant and fertile garden-spot, replete with 

 opulence and ornament. 



The contents of the " Farmer's and Emigrant's Hand- 

 Book" can be accurately known and duly estimated, only 

 by a recurrence to the Index of subjects ; which occupies 

 twenty-four columns, comprising about fifteen hundred dif- 

 ferent points of information respecting the management 

 of a Farm, from the first purchase and clearing of the 

 land to all its extensive details and departments. The 

 necessary conveniences, the household economy, the care 

 of the animals, the preservation of domestic health ; the 

 cultivation of fruits, with the science and taste of the ar- 

 borist, and the production of the most advantageous arti- 

 cles for sale, are all displayed in a plain, instructive, and 

 most satisfactory manner ; adapted peculiarly to the classes 

 of citizens for whose use and benefit the work is specially 

 designed. Besides a general outline of the Constitution, 

 with the Naturalization and Pre-emption Laws of the Uni- 

 ted States, there is appended a Miscellany of 120 pages, in. 

 eluding a rich variety of advice, hints, and rules, the study 

 and knowledge of which will unspeakably promote both the 

 comfort and welfare of all who adopt and practise them. 



The Publishers are assured that the commendations 

 which the " Farmer's and Emigrant's Hand-Book" has 

 received are fully merited ; and they respectfully submit 

 the work to Agriculturists, in the full conviction that the 

 Farmer or the Emigrant, in any part of the country, will 

 derive numberless blessings and improvements from his 

 acquaintance with Mr. Marshall's manual.
