NEW AND IMPROVED POUDRETTE, 
Manufactured from the night soil of New-York city tJ jn lots to

two years) has been in the market for eighteen years, aud still 
defies competition as a manure for Corn and Garden Vegeta¬ 
bles, being cheaper, more powerful than any other, and at the 
same time free from disagreeable odor. Two barrels ($3 worth) 
will manure an acre of corn in the hill, will save two-thirds in 
labor, will cause it to come up quicker, grow faster, ripen 
earlier, and will bring a larger crop on poor ground than any 
other fertilizer, and is also a preventive of the cut worm: 
also, it does not injure the seed to be put in contact with it. 
The L. M. Co. point to their long standing reputation, and 
the large capital ($100,000,) invested in their business, as a 
guarantee that the article they make shall always be of such

T HE NEW JERSEY FERTILIZER 
COMPANY is now prepared to receive orders for this 
important Manure. For all lands upon which ashes are bene¬ 
ficial, the MARL is more than a substitute. Professor Cook, in 
liis Annual Report to the Legislature of New-Jersev, says: 
“ The value of these MARLS is best seen in the rich and 
nighly cultivated district which has been improved ( almost 
made) by their use. But it may be interesting to examine the 
causes of their great value in agriculture, and to compare them 
with other fertilizers. For example : The potash alone may be 
taken, at an average, as five per cent, of the whole weight of 
die MARL ; a bushel, when dry, weighs eighty pounds ; and in 
the proportion mentioned, would contain four pounds of potash • 
This is nearly as much as there is in a bushel of unleached wood I 
ashes.” 
And again : “ It is probable that the great value of the MARL 
is to be found in the fact that it contains nearly all the sub¬ 
stances necessary to make up the ash of our common cultivated 
plants.” 
Price delivered on board vessel at the wharves of the Com¬ 
pany at Portland Heights, Raritan Bay, New-Jersey, seven 
cents per bushel. 
For further particulars, s e Circular, sent free of postage. 
Orders for other fertilizers will receive prompt attention. Ad¬

the NEW-YORK WEEKLY TIMES intendto introduce vari¬ 
ous and extensive changes in its character, which will render 
it still more attractive to the great mass of the people of the 
United States. Its columns will then be less exclusively occu¬ 
pied by political news and discussions and will be much more 
largely devoted to LITERATURE, GENERAL NEWS, and 
MISCELLANEOUS READING,. It will be made emphatical¬ 
ly and especially a 
NEWSPAPER FOR THE FAMILY AND THE FIRESIDE 
Containing Literary Tales, Original and Selected; Biographical 
Notices, Sketches of Character, Letters fiom Abroad, Anec¬ 
dotes, and generally whatever will be most entertaining and 
most instructive to the great mass of Newspaper Readers.

will be

umns, and abounding in interest and merit. This will be pub¬ 
lished in successive numbers, commencing about the 15th of No¬ 
vember, and will probably be completed in six months. 
The Weekly Times will also contain a series of 
LETTERS FROM EUROPE AND THE EAST, 
By one ofthe ablest and most Popular writers in the United 
States,—embracing Notes ol Incident, Adventures and Observa¬ 
tion in Europe, Egypt, Arabia and the Holy Land, and forming 
one ofthe most interesting series of Foreign Sketches ever pub¬ 
lished in this Country. 
Besides these continuous articles, prepared expressly for the 
New Serie-s of the Weekly Times, it will contain, every week, 
a great amount of 
ORIGINAL CORRESPONDENCE, DOMESTIC ’AND

advancement of the public good. It will advocate equal and 
exact justice to all men,—the preservation of the Union upon 
the principles ol the Constitutibn, and the improvement of the 
condition of all classes by Education, Morality and Religion. 
It will wage no war upon any section, nor countenance any 
infringement of the constitutional rights of any portion of our 
common country. But it will also resist all attempts to subor¬ 
dinate the general good to sectional ambition, or to undermine 
those great principles of Human Liberty which form the basis 
and foundation of our Republican institutions. It will be 
moderate but firm in its tone,—seeking to convince rather than 
intimidate, respectful toward those who differ from it, conserv¬ 
ative in its tendency, and devoted zealously and steadily to the 
elevation and advancement of the people.

paper, in clear type and in elegant style—each number cantain- 
ing eight pages, or forty-eight columns—presenting every week
