THE SOUTHERN CULTWATOR. 
ciiltivaiion that in 20 years I'rom this time wt. 
shall no lender need to look to Scotland as a 
mo 'el. The Scotch would call this American 
conceit, but they don’t know what we can do 
when we are in earnest Verv truh’ yours,

The Us.? of a Scrap Book. — A friend of ours 
a few days since came neat being strangled by 
a fish-bone sticking in his throat. He remem- 
bered having seen a specific in the newspapers 
ior th;s evil. Consulting his scrap bpok^ he 
found the following, and by improving the hint 
was soon relieved from his diflicuity : 
The white of an egg is said to be a specific 
for fish-bone sticking in the t.hroat. It is to be 
swallowed raw, and will carry do'.vn a hone 
easi y an 1 certainly. There is another lact 
touching eggs, which it w’ould be w'ell to remem- 
ber. When, as sometimes by accident occurs, 
corr sivesuhlimate is swallowed, the white of 
otie or two eggs, taken immediately, will neu- 
tralize the poison and change-the efiect to that 
of a dose of calomel .” — Mobile Adverliser.

OF THE FOURTH VOLUME OF T*HE 
SOUTHERN CULTIVATOR, 
A MONTHLY JOURNAL, 
Devoted to the Improvement of Southern Agriculf-ure, 
ild-ited. by JTAREtiS <JA3rAII,o5 Atlicus. 
In submitting to the Southern Public the Pro- 
spectus for the Fourth V’olume of the SOUTH- 
ERN CULTIVATOR, which may now be re- 
garded as permanently established, the Publish- 
ers -deem it unnecessary to advert to the high 
character tlie Work has attrined under the edito- 
rial control ol Mr. CAM^K, and therefore make 
a direct appeal to the Planters and Frirads of 
Agriculture throughout the Southern Slates, to 
aid them in sustaining a publication devoted e.v- 
ciusively to the cause of Southern Agriculture 
The advantages and benefits resiiitHig from 
Agricultural Periodicals, have been felt and ac 
knowledged by the intelligent and reflecting Ti’- 
.ers of the Soil in all civilized nations; to be 
most useful, therefore, they should be extensive- 
ly circulated among all classes of Ag'iiculturists; 
if possible, they should be in the hands of every 
man •who tills an acre of land, and to this end 
we invoke the aid of every one who feels an in- 
terest in the improvement of the Agrieult. re ot 
the South. ' " 
The first number of the Fourth Volume will ■ 
be issued on the Istof January next. It is pub- 
lished Monthly, in Quarto form ; each number
