A GOOD BOOK COMING! 
COLE’S AMERICAN FRUIT BOOK. 
S. W. COLE, Esq., author of the popular work entitled The 
American Veterinarian, of which 22,000 copies have already 
been published, has, after years of patient labor and close in¬ 
vestigation, completed his great work, entitled Cole's Ameri¬ 
can Fruit Book, a w'ork which we believe is destined to 
have a more widely-extended circulation than any similar 
work, ever before offered to the American public. We be¬ 
lieve so for the following reasons :— 
First—It is a mature work and a practical one, one on which 
Mr. Cole has spent many years of study and close examina¬ 
tion, and knowing the wants of the community has met those 
wants, in a plain, concise, and familiar manner, avoiding tech¬ 
nicalities, and ultra scientific specifications and definitions, 
useful only to the few—made a work intelligible to all. 
It will be emphatically a book for the people. 
Secondly—It will have an unprecedented sale on account of 
its cheapness. It will make a volume of 23S closely-printed 
pages. Illustrated with over one hundred beautifully-execut¬ 
ed engravings, b.y Brown, and will be sold for 50 cents, firmly 
bound in leather, and 62}£ cents in fancy cloth, with gilt backs. 
It will contain full directions for raising, propagating, and 
managing fruit trees, shrubs and plants, with a description 
of the best vai’ieties of Fruit, embracing several new and 
valuable kinds ; embellished with engravings, and outlines of 
fruit trees, and various other designs, emphatically a book 
for everybody. As well for the man who eats fruit as for him 
who raises it. This valuable work will be published early in 
February". 
100 agents, active, i~ 'elljgent, and honest, are wanted to sell 
this book, in every state in the Union. A cash capital of from 
$25 to $50 will be necessary. Address (post paid), the pub¬ 
lishers, John P. Jewett & Co., 23 Cornhill. Boston.

POUDRETTE. 
. THE LODI MANUFACTURING CO. offer their new and 
improved Poudrette, for sale at their usual rates—1 bbl. $2 ; 
3 bbls. $5, and $1.50 per barrel for any quantity over ? barrels, 
delivered free of expense, on board of Vessels in New York! 
At the factory, where vessels, drawing eight feet of water 
can come, it will be sold at 25 cents per bushel. 
The expense per acre in manuring corn with Poudrette, 
will not amount to more than $4, reckoning 25 cents per bbl., 
freight and all the nedessary labor included. On land previ¬ 
ously manured, or good sward land, one gill to the hill is suf¬ 
ficient ; on poor ground, a good crop can be raised by one 
gill to the hill at planting, and one at the last hoeing.’ The 
cost in labor alone, of manuring in the hill with barn-yard ma¬ 
nure, will amount to more than the first cost of Poudrette. 
with all the freight and charges added ; and the effects of this 
manure are quicker ; the corn grows more vigorously, and 
'•comes to maturity earlier. A fair trial, however small,'is re¬ 
spectfully solicited.

MACAULAY’S HISTORY OF ENGLAND 
FROM THE ACCESSION OF JAMES II. 
Vols. I. <$* II. 8 vo, Muslin, gilt, $2 each. 
ESTIMATED even by the ordinary means of judgment, Mr. 
Macaulay’s qualifications and opportunities are such as to 
warrant no ordinary anticipations. By the side of signal po¬ 
litical facilities, the minor advantages of rich materials and an 
almost untrodden field become nearly imperceptible. The 
domestic and the external life of the British nation are to be 
distinctly portrayed. A perfect history can never be writ- 
ten ; but the approximation has been made by Mr. Maeaulay 
to this consummate ideal. He has, as we before observed, had 
the double advantage of unusually good guidance and an al¬ 
most untrodden field.— London Times. 
A book which will be highly popular as long as the English 
language lasts. His style is terse and brilliant, and his gene¬ 
ral views of a far-seeing and impartial character. It is, in¬ 
deed, delightful reading, but it stands in no need of the praise 
—the great praise—we are bound to bestow upon it.— London 
Literary Gazette. 
Mr. Macaulay frequently rectifies a general prejudice by 
bringing to his task a calmer and more searching considera¬ 
tion, if not a larger mind, than has yet been brought to the 
subject. Absolute novelty in the main facts will not, of 
course, be found, but in those traits that mark the manners of 
the time, the general reader will be introduced to almost a 
new world.— London Spectator. f:2t*.
