Remarks. —Flour and Cotton have given way a little since our 
last; other articles remain at nearly the old prices. 
The Weather continues cold for the season, and yet the crops 
generally, throughout the country, are looking well. There are 
partial complaints, which will always be the case in the United 
States, with its great breadth of territory and diversified climate. 
To Correspondents. —Communications have been received 
from J. V. D. Wyckoff, S., John Robinson, G. L., S. R. Gray, A S. 
M., L. F. Allen, George Campbell, and W. S. King. 
Madder Sets , or Seed Roots— Can any of our readers inform 
us where these can be obtained ?

YYrAEUAIBEE SEAL ESTATE FOB! SALE. 
V I offer for sale my entire real estate, upon which are 35 
sets of boxes; the most of which have only been in use from one 
to two years; with a sufficient quantity of round trees to cut at 
least 20 sets more ; the land upon which these are situated, is 
not easily surpassed by any piney lands in Eastern Carolina. 
There is upon the premises two distilleries neatly and conve¬ 
niently fitted up, with all necessary outhouses. Upon the farm, 
I think the biiildings altogether are seldom excelled. Those 
wishing to purchase are invited to examine for themselves. 
Terms shall be low, and payments accommodating. Come and 
see. Any person wishing to purchase can be furnished with a 
sufficient number of teams and wagons to carry on both the op¬ 
erations of farm and turpentine, and with a year’s supply of pro¬ 
visions.

W EBSTER’S QUARTO DICTIONARY, 
Unabridged.—We believe we shall be certain of doing a 
service to the people of the state, if we say a word or two upon 
the unabridged Quarto Dictionary of the English Language, by 
Noah Webster. The word unabridged has been purposely em¬ 
ployed, because if such a work is wanted for any but the very 
lowest uses—those of mere orthography or orthoepy—it cannot 
be too copious and comprehensive. When one is ignorant of the 
proper and precise powers of a word, he cannot endure to be 
turned over to an abridgment that gives him a synonyme, instead 
of a definition; but he demands to know as much as any body 
knows of its history or etymology, and all its different shades of 
meaning. Then only can he employ it with confidence and ef¬ 
fect, as a mighty weapon for the expression of intellect or passion. 
In the vital department of a lexicon, its definitions, for which 
more than any and all other reasons put together, we consult 
such a work, Dr. Webster’s stands unrivaled. Their copiousness 
satisfies the wants of the inquirer, and their nice analyses and 
accumen gratify his taste and reward research. The vocabulary 
is interspersed with terms in science, which it is very convenient 
often to have explained with promptness, without the trouble of 
reference to the shelves of the library.— Newark Daily Adver¬ 
tiser , of March 25 t.h, 1851. 
A Dictionary is the last book which a scholar ever wants to 
have abridged , the process being sure to cut off the very matter 
which he most values. — Chronotype.
