THE Sccoiid-Annual Volume of Tin Njevr York VVhskt Wwo is this day submitted to its patrons and the public, During the brief year of 4ts existence, it has been favorably received and now enjoys a steadily increasing patronage and sale of 4 to 5,000 conies per week: The Political character of Thk Whig is fully indicated by its title. It Will support the cause of Constitutional Ijberty, Social Order and the Supremacy of the Laws1 will its whole heart and soul, and expose corruption, peculation, Jacobinisnv disorganization, and demagoginism, in high places, with no TIlE article published below, concerning the new and popular doctrine advanced by the illustrious Goelicke of Germany, cannot fail of exciting a deep and thrilling inter-est throughout our country. (Translated from the German.) of Germany, THE GREATEST OF HUMAN AT a Convention which met at Baltimore on the 11th of December last, composed rf a great ntfmber of gentlemen from various ports of the Union, distinguished for their Fiublic services, patriotism and practical intel-igence, the following resolutions were unanimously adopted after full discussion, in the course of which a great mass of facts and valuable information was elicited. Resolved That it is the deliberate Opinion of this Convention, that Silk may be grown in all the United Sutes, not only for domestic purposes, but as a valuable article of commercial export thereby giving an active employment to American labor, and retaining millions of dollars in our country, that are annually sent out of it for the purchase of silken goods, Resolved, That a National Silk Journal ought to be established under the, auspices of me executive Committee, and ail the tunds over and above the support of said paper ought to be devoted to the advancement of the Bilk cause in the United States.

Under the latter resolution the subscriber has been solicited to ansume the su perintendence of the Journal to be published by the Society, and now, with not the least a-batemcnt of that fondness (not to say passion,) for rural life, and all it pursuits, which prompted him eighteen years since to issue the first number of the old American Farmer, he is but too happy to salute once more his old friend and correspondents, promising to deserve new ones by the most assiduous endeavors, (not incompatible with strict attention to his official duties.) to accelerate the erowth and nroirress of what he is convinced is destined to become a great branch of national industry, bringing into active exercise much of the now unproductive laboring power of the country, giving comfort to the widow and the orphan, by offering them suitable and remunerating em- Fdoyment and making, in the aggregate, a arge addition to the wealth and prosperity of our beloved Union. Though Silk and every thing connected with its production and all its improvements in machinery for its preparation and manufactures will constitute the chief design and aim of the Journal, tor thewke of agreeable and useful variety, a considerable portion of its pages will be dedicated to the justly popular and kindred subjects of Agriculture, llw-liculture, Aud Rural and Domestic Economy. Hence, the adjunctive title 'IUhal J. S. SKINNER.

The Journal of the American Silk Society will be published monthly, in pamphlet form. Ea number will contain thirty-two pages, printed on new type and handsome paper, with a printed colored cover. All persons friendly to the objects of the Journal will please collect at once and transmit the subscription money of those who may feel dispobed to patronise tU TERMS. Two Dollars a year or six copies for Ten Dollars, always to be paid before the wotk is sent. All subscriptions to begin with the first number of the year, and in no case will the work be cent to any subscriber longer than it shall have been paid for.

All communications to be addressed, post paid, to Gideon R. Smith, Corresponding Secretary of the Society. All Editors of papers who may desire to see Silk added to the list of American Staples and wlio will have the kindness to give this prospectus a few insertions, will be entitled to a copy of the Journal. The Greensborougli Patriot. TO THE PUBLIC.

In undertaking the conduct of the newspaper in this place, we think it unnecessary to enter into an elaborate exposition of our intended course, as that must necessarily be guided, in a great measure, by circumstances as they arise around us. We intend, however, in thejirst place, that the Patriot shall perform the legitimate functions of ajurVvspAPER, as nearly as our taste, our judgment, and the excellent facilities of our location, may enable us to make it. In polities' we are not blindly committed to any party we hold the reserved right" to speak plainly about the public acts of any and every man. With regard, however, to the two great political factions which divide the nation, our tentiments have long been fixed. In shese we are decidedly whig.

We opposed the last we oppose the present executive administration of the general government, and to go with the whig party in all its honorable exertions to displace it from power at the expiration of its constitutional term. The farmer is entitled to our particular attention. The hewspapaper press is a very proper channel for the dissemination of practical ideas on the subject of husbandry, and a part of our paper will generally be devoted to this service. We shall advocate all well judged plans for the improvement of the internal commerce of the State. And that system of common school education, which may reach every child in the land, will meet our hearty support.

The lover of sentiment and fine writing will find in the Patriot some of th choicest clippings of our editorial scissors. And the admirer of a good joke-shall in no wise be neglected. In the general conduct of the paper we shall endeavor to diffuse that high, manly and liberal spirit which ought, individually and collectively, to characterize the" people of a free country. In buckling on the bands of fraternity with j4 older and abler conductors of the public press, we bespeak that kind. ness of sentiment which we cherish toward, them all as personaf stranircrs, and gentlemen whose, experience we defer to.

1839. 1-tf A CATALOGUE OF REASONS i or ui sr Dr. Pe rs' CELEBRATED VEGETABLE PILLS. 1. Because they are exceedingly popular, which proves them to be exceedingly good.

2. Because they are composed of simples which have tho power lo do good in an immense number of cases, without possessing the means to do injury -in any. 3. Because they are not a quack medicine, but the scientific compound of a regular physician, who has made his profession the study of his life. 4.

BecauTO they are not unpleasant to take, nor distressing to retain, while they are most effective to operate. 5. Because they are recommended as a standard medicine by the regular faculty. 0. Because by keeping the system in a natural state of action, they cure almost every disease which is incidental to the human frame.

7. Because they are cheap and portable, ami will retain all their virtues in hill vigor in any climate, and for any length of time. 8. Because notwithstanding their simplicity and mildness, they are one of the speediest purgative medicines which has yet been discovered. 9.

Because they are an unfailing remedy for procuring a good appetite. 10. Because incases of spleen or despondency, by their healthy "influence on the excited state of the body, they have a most happy effect in calming, and invigorating the mind. 11. Because they- effect their cures without the usual attendants of other pills, sickness and gripings.

12. Because as well as being an unrivalled purifier of the general system, they are a sovereign remedy tor sick head-ache. 13. Because they differ from the, majority of medicines, in the fact that the more they are known Uie more they are 14. Because as their application creates no debility in the system, they may be taken without producing any hindrance to business or the usual pursuits of every day life.

15. Because when once introduced into a family or a village, they almost immediately take the precedence of all other medicines in general complaint). lflw Because a number of the wonderful cures they have effected, can be substantiated, without any undue means being resor ted to, to procure invalid testimonies. 17. Because their composition is such that they are equally applicable to the usual diseases of warm, cold, or temperate climates.

18; Because two or three; are in general sufficient for a dosc-so that, as is the case with the generality of patent medicines the patient is not compelled to make a meal of them 19. Because each individual pill is put under the immediate supenntendance ot tho proprietor, so that no mistake in the c)ni position or quantity can possibly occur thro' the carelessness of a less interested agent 20. Because' they purify the frame without debilitating the System. 21. Because notwithstanding their immense popularity, no person has ever ventured to raise against them the breath of censure, which would not have been the case if envy could have discovered in them a single flaw to cavil at.

22. Because (and this, fact is of the utmost importance) ladies in a certain situation may take them, (not more than two or three at a time, however!) without in the slightest degree mcurrhigjhe hazard of al: ortion. VVere the virtues of Peters' inestimable pills confined to this desirable end a-lone, it would give them tiT decided advantage over the medicines of all competitors, as in no case is there more danger to be ap prehended, or for which eo lew remedies have beeu discovei ed, as the One referred to. 23. Because wh Je they are so efficient in their operations with adults, they may at the same time be administered to children and even to infants, in small quantities, half a pill for instance, without the slightest danger.

24. Because their virtues arc acknowledged to stand pre-eminent, for the soothing in fluence upon young ladies while Fullering from the usual changes of life, as directed by the laws of nature. 25. And lastly, because they are acknowledged to be an almost infallible remedy for bilious fever, fever ague, dyspepsia, liver complaint, jaundice; asthma, dropsy, rheumatism, enlargement of the spleen, lowness spirits, piles, colr heartburn, naurea, dit-tcn sion of the stomach and bowels, flatulence, habitual loss of appetite, blotched or sallow complexion, and in all cases of torpor of the bowels, where a mild but effective medicine may be lcquisite In short the general voice of thecommu-nity has decided that Dr. Peters' Vegetable Pills, is one of the happiest discoveries of Modern days, and altogether unrivalled as a general soother of bodily jr.

Invitation to tUe Feathered Race, Agaiii the balmy tepbyr blows, Fresh verdure decks the grove; Each bird witli vernal rapture glows, And tunes his notes to love.

Graves. From the Washington Whig. Chapel Hill, Feb, 1, 1839. Mr. Editor: The following lines are from the pen of George Horton, the colored bard of Chapel Hill.

By publishing them in the Whig you will comer a lavor upon IN OaTraaUry Pleasures tease me not with scenes so vain, Which but a moment last, Pleasures so transient to retain, Which sink in bitterness and pain, And all the sweet is past. Those flattering scenes may please awhile With light, as false as clear, Each with a tantalizing smile, 'Tie but my fondness to beguile And rouse the sleeping tear. Then why should I rny harp attune, With joy on every string, For rays as heatless as the moorr, Or suns that rise and set at noon, And leave behind a sting Mellona tells her last fond tale, Her bush declines to bloom, The Lee deserts the flow'ry And spreads her wings upon the gale. Which blows without perfume. The woodbine fades along the plain, The lark forbears to soar The morning linnet drops her train, And lo the sweet, the lively strain Is still and heard no more.

With smiles, but vain, I hail the dawn Of flexures short They rise but soon, alas, are gone, I'm left in sorrow's gloom alone. And joy makes haste away. Mcllona was the Goddess of honey. A Mathematician. A boy about fifteen years old once said to me, with an important air, I went through Da boll's arithmetic three times last winter, sir can do any sum in the hardest cyphering book you can bring." I did not dispute hiiivnor doubt but what he could mechanically obtain the answer of almost any sum found in a book, under a rule.

Butl thought like many others, he made figures without thinking, and I asked him the following question "What will twenty pounds of beef come to at twelve cents nor nound. nrovidod ttm heel is two hirds fat He hesitated a i-hile and then said, "if you will tell me what the fat omes to, I'll do the sum." I laughed heartily, for I could not restrain myself, lie soon said to me with considerable spirit "1 will tell -you what it comes to," I still said nolhjng, for his ludieious embarrassment prevented me speaking at the instant, when he with great vehemence said 5 It isan uafair suni I never saw 'fciich a sum in hook tn mv He before. Satirical hints on the People's Education. A man in Boston has been indicted for blowing his nose in his own room, the city ordinance prohibiting the hlowi ng of a horn or any other instrument in the strtetorany elsewhere." The point whetb er the human nose was an instrument, is said to have been very ably discussed by several learned gentlemen. We should supposo there could be but little difficulty in nettling the point at once, that the nose is an instrument, and a wind instrument, too, for wc have heard fellows snore through it before now, so loud, (hat we imagined a score of trombones, konk-shells, and tin horns, were in full blast.

-Look at have the information, from undoubted authority, that an individual in Braintrec, Mass. has bot tomed, during the past year; 050 pairs of men thick hoots 120 pairs of boys thick boots, and 80 pairs of men's brogans read two weekly newspapers, with pamphlets, magazines, dec, besides 21, 000 pages of the library. During this period he has been idle and absent five weeks Assiduity and attention of this kind must well repay the steady mechanic, and we doubt not that such a man is prized by his neighbors and esteemed by his townsmen. Rum Color. In one of the New England parishes, since the Commencement of the temperance reform, at a meeting held for the transaction of business, a proposition was introduced and cairicd for painting the meetinjr-housr.

Of course, it was necessary to decide what color it should be One proposed one color, and another another, and reasons Mere oflvrcd for each- At last says one, Mr. Moderator, I move that it be painted rum color, and 1 will give my reasons. There is Capt. wba sits near you, has had his face painted Rum color these fifteen years, aud it grows brighter and brighter every Kyear. A Kind Husband.

Mr. Tomkins." Baid one lady to another, 44 is one of the kindest of husbands. I know that he writes regularly to his lady by each packet." 44 Yes," replied the other, 44 he writes a parcel of flummery about the agony of absence, but he has never remitted her a shilling. Do you call that kindness "Decidedly," replied the first, 44 unremitting kindness." A Nice Distinction. Some English ladies bathing at the Cape of Good Hope, set one of the party to watch, in order to guard against intrusion.

The sentinel giving the alarm of masculine footsteps, one of the fair bathers raised her head, but calmed the apprehension of her companions, by exclaiming, 44 It is only a Dutchman." An Idea. -A gentleman seeing" Yeast Powders" written on a label in an apothecaries shop, went in and asked whether the yeast would have the same effect up-loafers as loaves. 41 For," said he, 44 1 have a sen who lays in bed half his time, and I should like to give him something to make linn rise." A whig congressman the el her day remarked that Judas Iscariot was the first sub-treasurer since the christian era he carries! the bag, and to obtain its con-tents he played the villian. The editor of the heads his rnarriages thus Go forth, multiply, and replenish the' earth." Fair enough for the Purchaser. PERSONS at all doubtful of the great superiority and high characterof Stodart, Worcester and Dunham'sPIANO FORTES, aw-respectrally requested to-try them if they are unworthy, reject them i they are really good, give them the character which has been' given them by all who have used them.

Nothing less can be asked, and nothing more will be required; in any case where the party is uncertain about the quality of the instrument no pay will be required until they are satisfied. The same attention will be paid to a letter ordering a Piano, as would be given, were the person present. Many of the Pianos that I sell are never seen by their owners until opened at home. The following letter is from a gentleman whe never saw his instrument before he opened it at Inn house. 1 have now for sale from twelve to fifteen Pianos.

E. NASH. Ma. E. P.

Num Dear Sir: The Piano Forte which I purchased of you in March last, (made by Stodart, Worcester and Dunham and forwarded to Blakely, by way of the Petersburg Rail Road) arrived in, goodprder and free of injury. It iA heati plain, and handsomely finished piano, and fully sustains you in the representation made in its favor. It is pronounced by all who have perfonned on it, (some of whom are competent judges,) to be a very superior toned instrument, and promises so far to be durable. I therefore take much pletfsuTre in recommending to such persons as may wish to pur chase instruments of the kind, to-apply to you before they purchase elsewhere.

4-3 IJLI1M1S OF various descriptions in common use pressed, tor sale at this eflice, on reasonable Citizens of Forth and South America- To Louis Oflon Goelicke, M. of Germany (Europe) belongs the imperishable honor of adding a new and precious doctrine to the Science of Medicine doctrine which, though vehemently opposed by many of the faculty; (of which he is a valuable member,) he proves to be as well founded in truth as any doctrine of Holy Writ a doctrine, upon the verity of which are suspended the lives of millions of our race, and which he boldly challenges his opposcrs to refute, vix Consumption is a disease alwayt occasioned by a disordered state of Vis Vita (or Life Principle) of the human body: secretly lurking in the system for years before there is the least complaint of the Lunga0 and which may be as certainly, though not so cured, as a common cold or a simple headache.

GOELISKE'S MATCHLESS SANATIVE, A medicine of more value- to man than the vast mines of Austria, or even the united treasures of our globe, a medicine, which is ob-ained equally from the vegetable, animal and mineral kingdoms, and thus possesses a threefold power, a medicine, which, tho' designed as a remedy for consumption solely, is possessed of a mysterious influence over many diseases of the human system, a medicine, which beffins to be valued by Physicians, who are daily witnessing it astonishing cureaof many whom they had resigned to the grasp ot the Insatiable Grave.
