A. PATTERSON BEING permanently located in Rome, Floyd county, tenders his services to the Citizens generally, in the practice of Medicine and its collate ral branches. Rome, Jan. 13—1—ts. prospectus OF THE SOUTHERN REVIEW. be published at Washington, quarterly, in art . Jl Bvo No. 0f275 to 300 pages, price $5 per an num, payable in advance. The place is chosen, not only for its facilities of information, literary and politi* cal, but as that at which tho Southern States can bo united upon the undertaking, with the greatest ease, and with the completes! exemption from all State or Party jealousies. Ofthe matter, thrce.fourths (say 225’pp.) shall con sist of regular Reviews, making about 9 of 25 pp. each. These must, as literary works at least, return as age. neral rule, somewhat towards that older method, now almost forgotten, and give a regular analysis of tho book reviewed, if itbeof any merit. In Politics and upon Occasional Topics, there maybe a greater liber, ty of deviating into mere disquisition. In this portion of the Review, there will bo given, in each No. a paper historical ofthe Politics and gon. eral events of the day; to serve as a Historical Regis ter. Its execution will always be committed to the strongest hands only; and its purpose, to give a unity and consistency to the Public Doctrines of the Review such as can scarcely be so well effected in any other matter. Occasional Retrospective Reviews will also be cm. bodied in this part of the plan, with a view of favoring in a certain degree, the more curious studies; or to re. vive the knowledge of important books, forgotten in the confusion of modern learning. Writers will be led, of regular purpose to give their papers, wherever the subject will permit, the form •of a service; in order not only that they may thus afford a completer body of information, serve, also, to reprint apart, for popular circulation; a method that will much augment both the reputation and usefulness ofthe Re. view. A body of Miscellanies (say some 50 pp.) will form the subordiuare'and more amusing part of the Journal. Its contents will be somewhat various; but will, for the most pan, consist of short L'tcrary Notices; Biblio. graphical Articles; a critical list of New Publications, foreign and domestic, and general Literary Intelli gence. In Communications, the most compressed n?ode of writing will be every where required. Papers in which the works do not bear a just proportion to the information conveyed or the effect intended, will ba either rejected, without scruple, or abridged, without mercy To warrant this exaction, the usual rate of compem sation to writers will be advanced to 2 1.2 dollars per printed page; a price that will offer fair remuneration to tho talents and labor which we wish to secure. Os this revival of a Review qf the South, the pur. pose is. to give once more to our region, (now emin* cntly needing it) an Interpreter and a defender ; the common Representative of our Institutions, aud of the Mind itself among us. Such in that great Congress of Opinion, where the fates of civilized nations arc now so largely settled, we do not possess and we have al. ready suffered much for it. It is time to make ottr. selves understood and respected there. The Journal which shall du this, must combine the general strench of all who, throughout the South, love the country, and are capable of doing it intcllected service. It must then bo, not the Champion or the propagandist of lo cal opinion’, but the friend of all that pursue the pub. lie good. Into the vulgar methods of Politics, debas ed by Partizan rancour, or corrupted by the interest, or overborne by the popular passion of the In.ur, it must not fall—From it, the pride of the Nuiltfier must re ceive no diminution, tho fidelity ofthe Unionists no reproach : It must be no vantage ground to either part, nor serve but as an equal field, where they will only contend which shall most advance the cause of the South, and of that older doctrine of Jeffersonian State Rights, avowed by both parties alike, and now the only hope of rallying and of rescuing the country. To vindicate, then, our peculiar Institutions; to re bel with argument, lest presently we be forced to re -1 bel with arms, all interference with ou. domestic con dition, against the wild ruleef mere Chance and Cor. ruption, touphohl a Republican and Federative, a sdis* tinguished from a Democratic and Consolidating nd. ministration of the National affairs, from the disor. ders of the Central government. Where Reform is hopeless, and even useless, till you have given your selves stronger cud wiser local systems—to drieef thn public view towards a homo policy ofthe State, capa ble, through itself, to confer upon us the blessings of well ordered Liberty, expected in vain fmm the Fo dcral Power; from the delusion of Parly Politics abroad to call home the wise and brave have often raised petty States into noble and prosperous Commonwealth ; to attach men, if possible, to their birth place, and convert them from wandering and selfish adventurers, into ci izemt, the lovers of civilization, to re.animate public spirit, and give it purpose, ns well ns energy; to hold, over parties and Politicians, the tribunal of a Public opinion far different from that idle and corrupt one, of which the newspaper Press is tho voice; for these purposes, to diffuse through tho land, sound and well considered public doctrines, with knowledge and Taste, their natural allies, such will be the general aim of that literary league, among the best talents of the country, which has been set on foot in the present undertaking. Os its critical purposes, it is not necessary to speak so minutely. In general, it will of course strive to guide the popular taste towards the best sources in knowledge, and the truest models in Elegant Letters. Its judgments will however, found themselves upon the dent of his temporary renown, nor that of his birtl* on this or the other side of tho Atlantic. Towards, the few good writers, the want of cultivation has yctr permitted us have in America, it will know how to bo respectful. But in Literature, as lately in Trade, we> shall insist that no man’s bad commodity be forced up* on us, under patriotic pretences. Upon all that school of writained. Upon the Literature of mere amusement, existence enjoyed by this literary grass, which flourishes green ly tn the morning, and is cut down and flung away be. fore the night. Life is tco short, Art too long, arid Learning grown tooprolific, for people to occupy them, selves more than an instant with Lad books, while push great bodies of good ones are at their command.
