Farmers* Prospects for 18A3. 'Watchman, whnt of ihe night This inquiry is on ihe tnind if noi oruhe lipet of most men tit the present time and as the success of the fsrmer li«a at the foundation of the success of all other professions, those who attempt to answer the inquiry, must soon see the horizon of the farmers' prospects, lor any 'signs of promise.' What then are the prospects of the farmers for the coming year, as to the probable crops and pri ces 1 In our opinion, good in both re •perns.

First, as to the CROPS it has always been found that a season of severe dmught has a beneficial effect upon the soil, so that bountiful crops are pretty sure to be obtained the following year. Besides, the drought of the past year taught some valuable lessons in regard to the importance of deeper and better tillage, which most farmers will put in practice the coming season. Then, the hard times have had the effect to drive men back to their forms and to industry, who before imagined that they were rich enough to live more genteelly, or smart enough to live more easily at oilier employment. This, together with the clieiper cost of Inbor, and the continued high price, of farm products, must tend lo secure a largo increase of crops the present year, supposing the season proves ordinarily lavorable and in regard to the great staple, wheat, already in ground, its present appearance is quite as good, we believe, as in tbe average of seasons.

Second, to PRICES for the coming season we think there is but little prospect of any decline from present rates, and much probability tiiut prices will advance, especially of such articles as are suited for export. Of course it is impossible at this time to predict what will be the extent of. the war movements in Europe the coming season, or to what extent these movements will create foreign demand for our products but from all that we can see at present, we are of the opinion that nil of our surplus breadstuff:* nnd provisions will be wanted to feed the armies and the suffering people of other countries and if our crops are abundant, the tide of gold and silver that hns for the last year flowed 60 continuously from this country, will be reversed, and with its return will come a return of prosperity, and the resumption of our public improvements.

Such are our hopes and expectations for the future but these results can only be secured by industry and frugulity, so we inust all learn to labor and to wait for the 'good time coming, boys !'—O Cultivator,

Shaping Trees and Shrubs* Who has not observed the great difference in beauty between a handsomely dressed tree, and one of uncouth or distorted form of the same species How often do purchasers of ornamental shrubs and trees anxiously search for symmetrical specimens—forgetting, or not knowing, that the most irregnlar m«y be easily pruned into any desired shape. If the Dutch gurdeners display so much skill in training vegetable growth in pcabocks and hedge hogs, Americun gardeners may find an appropriate exer:ise of their skill in imitating the graceful and beautiful in nature.

At the ptesent season, or during the commencement of vigorous growth, this desiruble object may be most easily accomplished. By occasionally removing a needless shoot, but more frequently shorieniug-back such us ore over-grown, or pinching-in those that threuten to become so. and by lopping certain portions to induce dormant buds to push where branches and foliage may be deficient, a degree of skill may be exercised, not unworthy of comparison with that of the artist who developes a beautiful statue from shapeless block of marble. :,l\

Even small plants, which otherwise grow tall and meagre, may be made to assume bushy and thick appearance, by pinching off the ends of the lending shoots while they are young. The English gardeners have acquired a skill in managing in this way their pot plants intended for exhibition, that it is really astonishing to those who first witness the rich and symmetrical masses of flowers and foliage which they aro thus enabled to present to view.

A great error is often committed when flowering plants ore often placed in o» pen ground, by crowding them too closely together, giving them too mucn the appearance of weeds. They are much the best when overy plant is allowed full room to expand. When crowded, the flowers are fewer nnd more imper feet, nnd the plants and foliage slender, and greatly inferior in beauty to the de!)je and rich mass of well developed leaves and bloom of a freely grown un* crowded plant.—-Albany Cul.

IM?£BTJ»ESCB OP AIT Ofiiiios.—Sydney Smith says, that it is always considered a piece of impertinent* in England, if a man of less than two or three thousand a year, has any opinions at all, upon important sub-' jects. It is no less strange than true Mso, that the same custom of balancing gold aSain«t ideas, has obtained no little foothold in our own land of boasted equality. It is certainly a brainless custom.

MEDICATED INHALATION.

Jk. Xew Method.

4 MOST wonderful discovery has recently been made by Dr. CU RTIS, for the cure ol Asthma, Consumption, Bronchitis, Coughs, Colds and all Lung Complaints, by Medicated Inhalation. Dr. Curtis's Hygeana,or Inhaling Hygean Vapor and Cherry Syrup, has accomplished the most wonderful cures of Asthma nnd Consumption in the city of New York and Vicinity for a few months past, ever known to man. It is producing an impression in Diseases of the Lungs never before witnessed by the Medical Profession. [See certificates in hands or Agents.]

The Inhaler is worn on the breast, under the linen, without the least inconvenience, the hent oi'the body being sufficient to evaporate the fluid —supplying the (ungs constantly with a healing and agreeable vapor, passing into all the air cells and passages of the lungs that cannot possibly be reacned by otlier medicine.

Here is a case: ASTHMA CURED. BROOKLYN, N. Y., Dec. 30,1853. For about eight years

I have been severely afflic­

ted with the Asthma for the last two years 1 have suffered be.vond nil my powers of description months at a time I have not been able 10 sleep in bed, getting what 'est I could sitting in my chair. My difficulty of breathing, and my sufferings, were so great at iimes, that for hours together my friends expected euch h®ur would be my last. During the past six years I have had the aid and attendance of some of the most celebrated physicians, bi'i have received no perma nent benefit, and bo 'ittle relief. 1 at length had the good fortune to procure Dr. Curtia's Hygeana or Inhaling Hvgean Vapor and Cherry Syrup.— At the time first obtained it, I was suffering under one of my most violent attacks, and was in great distress, almost suflbca'ing for want of breath. In less than ten minutes fiom the time 1 applied ihe luhaler to my stomach, and took a teaspooniul of the Cherry Syrup, 1 WM relieved in a great measure from tbe difficulty ol breathing and hi'd ncomlorlp'oie night. I have since continued -i with the greatest possible benefit, and am now comparatively well. God only knows the amount of suffering this medicine has relieved me from. My advice 'o thesuffering is—TRY IT vrii JIM RG

DR. SWAYNE'Ss" COMPOUND SYRUP OF^«-' WILD CHERRY, go The Original and only genuine "Cherry" Preparation.

READ THIS CAREFULLY."8 Dr. SWAYNE—Dear Sir.- I feel it a debt of gratitude due to you—and a duty to the afflicted generally, to offer my humble testimony in favor of your Compound Syrup of Wild Cherry. Some three years since, 1 was violently attacked with cold and inflammation of the Lungs, which was accompanied with a very distressing cough, pain in the breast and head a very considerable discharge of offensive mucus from the lungs, especially n,ion changes of weather, however sligh'. At first 1 felt no alarm about my condition, mit

speak above a whisper, such was the exceeding weakness of my lungs. During this time I had tried various preparations and prescriptions, but found no relief—growing all the time worse- Just here 1 was advised and persuaded by a deaf friend in Wilmington, to maketrial of your Syr* up of Wild Cherry. I must confess that previously I bad been prejudiced against patent medicines, and lam still against tnose coming out of the hands of emperics, but understanding your claims to the profession and practice ofmediclnc, and having implicit faith in the saying of my friends, 1 forthwith purchased of Dr. Shaw, onti of your agents, a few bottles and commenced its use. My disease was at this time of SO or 25 months' standing, consequent)y was deeply seared. I found, however, considerable relief from the use of the first four or fivo bottles. But being a public speaker, I frequently attempted to prcach with my increasing strength and thereby ruptured those vessels that had already begun to heal in this way doubtless my cure was greatly retarded. In consequence of acting thus imprudently, 1 had to use 12 or 15 bottles before I was perfectly restored. 1 have no question, a much smaller number of bottles would have made me sound, but for the above indiscretion. The Syrup allayed the feverished habit, did away the dia* tressing cough, put a stop to the discharge of matterfrom the lungs, and gave them and the entire system good health. I have deterred offering this certificate till now for the purpose of being perfectly satisfied with the permanency of the enre, and now that I feel perfectly well, I offer it with pleasure. REV. J, P. JORDULN.
