PROSPECTUS,
OF
THE TELLEGRAPH,
A WEEKLY PAPER PUBLISHED IN DARIEN
A.T THREE DOLLARS PER ANN CM.
BY NATHANIEL M. CAULDER.
?yUR first year has nearly closed, and as yet, we
Mj!’ - have never come before the public, with a re
gular prospectus. Our views it is true, have been
briefly set forth inthe first number of our paper, bu
its circulation, at teat early period was of course, ve
ry limited, and they could not be very w idely dissemr
'mated. Under these circumstances, presenting out
Prospectus, it is but right that we should, in as few
words as practicable, reiterate them. Our Country,
our State, and our Home, have an equal claim, and
their several and united interest, it ehall ever be our
aim to promote.
The general politics of our beloved country, shall'
occasionally occupy our columns,but as Editors, we,
disclaim all political party connections. A strict and
utideviating neutrality, shall always characterize our
writings, for reasons which are good, and substantial.
Our patrons and friends are found among those of
both parties, and it is at their suggestion, w e consent
to pursue this course, for the establishment of thepa
per is desired by all, and could not be sustained ex-:
cept by a Union of both. Thus then, we are engaged ,
and to our friends of both parties, to our patrons, and !
to the public-—wc pledge our best, and most unremit
ted exertions, to render ours, a useful, entertainn
and interesting paper.

FK.OSFECTUS
OF THE
SPY,
A WEEKLY NEWSPAPER published in Washing
ton, Wilkes County, Georgia, to be devoted to Politics
Literature, & c.
IT has so long been the custom of persons announ
cing their design to establish a Press, to issue a
Prospectus containing the principles which they in
tend to maintain, that a departure in the present in- I
stance would hardly be pardoned. The people have
unquestionably the right to be informed, what path
we design to travel, and to judge first of its propriety,
and afterwards if there should be a deviation from the
same’ We would therefore, briefly state, that our
object is to advocate and support to the extent of our
ability, the doctrines professed and practised by the
Unon Parly of our State, believing them to be essen
liai 'Othc proeervai i. r>-T.l" -»,.r existence as a nation,-
and the perpetuation of • ur happiness as a people.
These wc believe to be generally known and under
stood by the citizens ofoui State, and indeed the pro
pet limit of a prospec us would preclude their being
examined and explainer in detail. W e are fully aware
that professions made and not practised ere wors
than futile. If we should be found tergiversating in
our course, we arc of consequence amenable to our
patronsand readers, and by them, we are willing to
bejudged.
Portions of the paper will be devoted to miscellane
ous matter, distinct from political, embracing that
which will be thought must useful and interesting.
The Editor pledges himself to use every- exertion to
make his paper as respectable and interesting as lies
in I.is power.
The Southern Spy will be publish'd on a Royal
sheet with new type and press, at two dollars and lilty
cents in advance, or three dollars at the end of the
year The first number w ill be issued about the 25 th
of this month.

A. 3?TBW
A nobleman in London, bad among many
servants, one in whom he teposed great confi
dence. One of his fellow-servants mc<immg
; ealons ot fiTm, made a complaint t<> his mas
ter, to get him turned on’ of service—stating
that he was a great gamester with cards,which
he knew his master detested- The nobleman
as he expected, was highly displeased, and
proceeded at once to call Jack to an account
for his conduct.
Jack, said iho nobleman, what is this 1
have heard of you ’
Indeed, your lordship, says Jack, I cannot
tell.
Why, says the nobleman, I am informed
that you are a gamester with card-'.
Who informed yon, my lord, say # Jack ?
The report is false, and I wish 1 knew' who
told you.
That is of no consequence, said the noble
man, is it true or not ?
It is not true, my lord, I never played a
card in my life.
Very well, says the nobleman, I am glad to
hear that—and we will call my informer.
With all my heart, says Jack—The infor
mer was ailed.
Did vou not tell me, says tho nobleman,
that Jack was a great gamester with cards 1
I. I did my lord.
N- Jack utterly denies it-
I. I don’t care my lord, I will prove it on
him—He is one of the greatest gamesters in
London, and if you will look y -u will find a
pack of cards now in his pocket- Jack was
searched and cards was found.
The nobleman began to stamp ir. a passion;
audacious, impudent rogue. E w dare von be
guilty of such a falsehood before my face ? did
you not tell me, that you never piaye I a card
in your life, nor could tell me what a card
meant ? ai d now I find them in your pocket,
yon villain; seeing vos are guiltv, w hat reason
had you to deny it I Had you confessed your
fault, I would be apt to forgive you, but now,
/will punish you with the utmost severity; not
only because you are a gamester, but because
yon are a liar also.
J. My lord, your lordship may use your
own pleasure, but, I hope, you will not con
demn mo for a fault that I am not guilty 01.
N. Yon viilian, what stronger proof need
there be, than the cards being found in your
pocket, how can you speak for yourself ?
J. My lord, if you call these cards, I do
not, neither do I use them as such.
N. Why what do you call them then ?
J. My lord, this is my Almanac.
N Your Almanac I you dog, did ever any
one make an Almanac of a pack of cards, you
viilian, what could any eric make of them ?
J. My loid, lam no scholar, and for that
reason I use them as my Almanac, to rule and
govern the year by.
N. Well Jack, if so, let me hear how you
manage your cards, if I find you convert them
to a proper use, I will not in the least be angry
but will freely forgive you.
J. Why then my lord, consider in the first
place, that there are four suits in the cards,
that inoma'c th*’ four quarters of the year,then
a- there are thirteen < ards in every suit, that’s
just as many as there arc weeks in a quarter;
there are also as many lunations in a year as
there are cards in a suit; there are twelve court
cards, which intimate the twelve monihs of the
year, and the twelve signs of die Zodiack.
ibrough which (lie sun steers its diurnal < nurse
during the space of ten whole years; there are
fifty-two raids in the park, ami that directly
answer the exact number of weeks in the year;
examine the cards a little further, and you will
find as many spots in them as are days in the
year, there being throe hundred and sixty-five
spots «n a pack of cards, which are exactly
the number of days in a year, these multiply
bv twentv-four and by sixty, which brings me
out the exact nuinbrr of hours and minutes in
a year.
N. Very well Jack, I can’t say but that
you apply vour Almanac exceedingly well, but
prithee, do you make any further use ot your
cards?
J. Yes mv lord, I do, a greet deal.
N. AVhy prithee, Jack, what further use
do vou make of them !
J. Why, my lord, sometimes I convert my
cards into a Pr-tV'-r Book.
N. A Prayer Book, vou viilian, lam sure
if you make an Almanac ot your cards, you
rati never make u Prayer-Book of them.
J. Mv bud, i’ll make it appear; yon know
I told vou ' could neither read nor write, and
for that r« asnn these cards answer my i urpose
as v.ell ns any Prayer Book in England.
N. Prithee Jack, let me hear it out; I hk«-
the beginning of it very well.
J. Why then my lord, v. hen I look ’upon j
the*' - f >ur suit* <B the cai ds, timy present to i
me the four principal Religions that are pre-.
d<-minerii m th“ wor’d, viz : Chr'S’i-mi’y, Ju-:
dai-m. M •’orr •’am-m and Pa.ai.i»m; when I
look over 'he t*» v ® court.cards, the. re <md
me ol th> twelve Patriarchs, from whom uro-j
ceeded the 12 tr-bram Xsrae*, tbd 22 Ap --i
ties, also tho 12 Arlu les of the Chri Uiati faith,
in which lam bound io believ . Wm-n I look
I upon the King, it reminds me of the allegiance
I due to his Maj'-sty; when 1 look upon tho
| Qimen, »• puts me in mind of tlie allegiance
i duo to her Majesty; when 1 look upon tho ten,
;it puts <oo m mind of the ten cities in tho
plains ofSodom and Gomorrah, destroyed with
; fire and brimstone from Heaven, tho ten
plaL’ties of Egypt, wherewi’h God affl'cted
the Egyptians, when he brought the Chldren
of Israel ou of that land, also the ten Corn*
mandmems, and the ten tribes of Israel which
were cu* off from their wickedness; when I
look upon the nine, it puts me m mind of the
nine Hmrar hies, the nine muses, and tho
nine noble orders among men; when I look
upon the eight, it reminds me of the eight
Beatitudes; the eight Altitudes, the persons
saved in .Noah’s Ark, the eight Persons men
tioned in Sciptiire to be released from Death
to Life; when 1 look upon the seven, it puts
mo in mind of the seven administering Spirits
that stand before the throne of God; the seven
Seals wherewith the Book of Life is sealed;
the seven Aug Is wnh the seven V'als filled
with the indignation of the Loid, wherewith
they were to plague the Earth, as mentioned
in the Apo-aly psc of St. Sohn, the seven libe
ral Arts and Sciences given by God for the

'li<‘ two puis me in mind of the >wo Testaments
the Old and New, containing ihe Law and
the Gospel, the two . ontrar- principles strug
gling in Man, viz: Virtue and Vice; then my
lord, when I look upon the Ace, it puts me in
mind that I have but one God o adore, wor
ship and serve, one Faith to believe, one Trurli
to practice, one Baptism to cleanse us front
Original sin, and one only Muster to serve and
obey.
N Very Weil Jack, I can’t say but yotl
convert your cards to very good use; but now
I perceive there is one particular card in tho
pack that you have not yet explained to me.
J. Which is that my Lord ?
N. Jack, when you were shufllmg tho
Cards vou passed from lh»’ queen to the ten,
and hud bv the Knave, doth that pul you in
mind of nothing ?
j J. That is right, my lord, I had like tr»
{ forgot that, when 1 look upon the Knave, it
; puts me m mind of your Lordship.
N Whnt, you viilian, do you account ma
a Knave before my face ?
J. No, mv lord, you misapprehend me; I
mean your lordship’s informer
N. If so, Jack, I freely forgive you, ’tri
- very well turned.
The Nobleman was so highly pleased with
