It lias ever been the aim of the proprietor t<>' inculcate and promote the cause ol morality.— j It cannot be denied that the periodical press exercise a decided influence upon the moral ' and intellectual character; and where tluit 1 press is untrammelled by mercenary consider- j ations or vicious principles, its effect must be i elevating and refining to a community, like that of America. With those views,every thing operating injuriously to morals or religion have been studiously avoided and not allowed a place I in the 'Magazine; for, we hold those men us j traitors to their country, who would seek to de : stroy the pure doctrines of virtue and religion, either by open opposition or secret intrigue j In sustaining the literary character of the La i dies Companion, the proprietor will nut confine j himself to the mere task of pleasing, without i imparting vigor to the mind ; hut will endeavor to present both, that which will be attractive to superficial readers, as well as that which f will lurnish subjects lor reflection to the stu dent.

W<- timed it, and find that with new moulds and inexperienced hands, it made at the rate of two thousand three hund red and sixty-eight brick per iiour. By mould ing ten hours in a day, it would therefore turn out twenty-three thousand six hundred per day. It requires six hoys to bear ofl', and four to sand the moulds, Ac.—together with four grown ! men. Thus fourteen hands are sufficient to •Unite tlie above named quantity of the most: beautiful brick per day. JOHN SPRINGER, DAVID F. WILSON Macon, April 14, 1887. I have witnessed the performance of Mr T. L. Smith s new Brick-making Machine, just put into operation in this place: and have no hesitation in pronouncing it a great and useful improvement on any other method of brick making 1 have evej* seen, both as to the quality of tlie brick and expedition in making. Rv re quest I timed the machine for half an hour; tin- result oflhut trial shows that with 14 hands the machine will turnout of beautiful and well tempered brick, 2.308 in one hour, or about 40 to the minute.

It was one of the great objects of ‘‘Waldie’s Library,” “to make good reading cheaper, and to bring Literature to every man's door.” This object has been accomplished; we have given to books wings, and they have flown to the up permost parts of our vast continent, carrying society to the secluded, occupation to the lite rary, information to all. We now propose still further to reduce prices, and render tire access to a literary banquet, more than tw o fold ac cessible ; we gave, and shall continue to give, in tlie quarto library, a volume weekly for two cents a day ; we now propose to give a volume, in the same period, ior less than four cents a week, and to add. as a piquant seasoning to the dish, a few columns of shorter literary matters, and a summary of the news and events of the day. We know, by experience and calcula tion, that we can go still further in the matter of reduction, and we feel, that there is still verge enough for us to aim at ottering to an increasing literary appetite, that mental food which it craves. The Select Circulating Library-, now as ever i so great a favorite, will continue to make its j weekly visits, and to lie issued in a form for | binding and preservation, and its price and j form will remain the same. But we shall, in j the first week of January, lt>!S7, issue a huge sheet, of the size of the largest newspapers oi America, but on very superior paper, also,_/!//- ctl icitli boobs, of the newestand most entertain ing, though, in their several departments oi Novels, Talcs, Voyages, Travels, &.C., select in their character, joined with reading, sucli us should fill a weekly newspaper. By this meth od, we hope to accomplish a great good; toen liven and enlighten the family- circle, and to give to it, at at expense which shall be no con sideration to any, a mass of reading, that, in book form, would alarm the pockets of the pru dent, and to do it in a manner that the most sceptical shall acknowledge (i the power of concentration can no farther go.” No book, which appears in Wuhlie's liuarto Library, will be published in the Omnibus, which will be an entirely distinct periodical. Terms. Waldie's Literary Omnibus, .will lie issued every Friday morning, printed on pa per of a quality superior to any other weekly siieet, and of tiu; largest size. It will contain, Ist. Books, the newest and the best that can be procured, equal every week, to a London duodecimo volume,embracing Novels, Travels, Memoirs, Ac., and onlij chargeable with Sews- : paper postage. yd. Literary reviews, tales, sketches, notices of books, and information Irom “the world ol letters," ol'every description. ffii. The news of the week, concentrated into a small compass, but in a suilicient amount to embrace a knowledge of the principal events, political and miscellaneous, of Europe and A mcrica. The price will be TWO DOLLARS to clubs of five subscribers, where tlie paper is forward ed to one address. The clubs oi two individ uals, FIVE DOLLARS; single mail suDsor.b ers, THREE DOLLARS. The discount on uncurrent money will be charged to the remit ter ; the low price and superior paper, absolute ly prohibit paying a discount. \iy()o. no condition will n cupij ever be sent, until the payment is recciced in advance. As the arrangements for the prosecution of this great literary undertaking, are all made, and the proprietor has redeemed all his pledges to a generous public for many years, no tear ol non-fulfilment of the contract can be telt.

PROSPECTUS OF Tli v xpi* i* i ist cut. IN issuing it Prospectus for tlie publication ol a paper, the undersigned will depart from a usage more honored in the breach, than in the ; observance, and make no promises which it is | not his design to fulfil. “The Em-f.iiimisi,’ ; after a trial of almost 1J months, has not failed in i recuring lbr the Editor, the attention and pat j sonage desired ; and it is confidently believed. in rendering to subscribers, at least an equiva j lent for the pittance they contributed towards its support. Gratified lbr the encouragement S inanilested, desirous of making his little paper | worthy the patronage of an enlightened and j generous public, the subscriber has determined j to enlarge it to nearly quadruple the present j dimensions, so that it will contain nearly lour | times as much matter as it now does. Thus ! will be aftbrded greater space lor his own lucu brations and those of correspondents, together with Advertisements and judicious selections. It may not be inappropriate here to remark, that, ior want of room, some of the best communica tions have been excluded, and occasionally in teresting matter, difficult to condense within so small a compass. With increased labor and expenditure, he must hope lbr increased re ward; and consequently, the subscription price for the second volume will be One Dollar in advance, or One Dollar and Fitly Cents, at the ! expiration of tin* yea*. This alteration, it will j be perceived, is not in proportion to the change ol'stze in the paper; the times being hard, we are willing to work as low as we can, to save ourselves from debt, to please our patrons and ourselves also. Advertisements, as heretofore at 50 cents per square for the first insertion, and 25 cents per square lbr each subsequent insertion.

CAREY'S LIIBARY OF CHOICE 1 literature. TO say that this is a reading age, implies a desire for instruction, and the means to gratify that desire, on the first point, all are a greed ; on the second, there is diversity both of opinion and practice. We have newspa pers, magazines, reviews, in fine, pamphlets of all sizes, on nearly all subjects, which have severally their classes of readers and support ers. And yet copious as are these means ol intellectual supply, more are still needed. In addition to the reviews of the day and passing notices of books, the people in large numbers, in all parts of our great republic crave the pos session of the books themselves, and details, beyond mere passing allusion, of the progress oi discovery in art and science. But though it be easy to ascertain and express their wants, it is not so easy to gratify them. Expense, dis tance Irom the emporium of literature, engross ing occupations which prevent personal appli cation ot even messages to libraries and book sellers, are so many causes to keep people al way Irom the feast of reason and the enjoyment of the covered literary aliment. It is the ob ject of the publishers of the Library to obviate these difficulties, anil to enable every individ ual, at a small cost and without any personal effort, to obtain for his own use and tiiat of h.s lavhred friends or raiiiily, valuable works, com plete, on all the branches of useful and popular literature, and that in a form adapted to the comfort of the reader. ! 1 lie charm of variety, as far as it is compati ble with morality and good taste, will be held j constantly in view in conducting the Library, to fill the pages of which the current literature ot Great Britain, in alljts various departments of biography, history, travels, novels and poe try, shall he freely put under contribution.— With perchance occasional exceptions, it is in i' tended to give entire the work which shall be | selected for publication. When circumstances authorize the measure, recourse will be iiad to the literary stores ot Continental Europe, and translat.ons made from French, Italian or Ger man, as the case may be. Whilst the body ot the work will be a reprint, or at times a translation of entire volumes, tlie cover will exhibit the miscellaneous character of a magazine, and consist of sketches of men and things, and notices of novelties in literature i and the arts throughout the civil.zed world.— : A full and regular supply of the literary, month ly and hebdomadal journals ol Great Britain and Ireland, in addition to home periodicals of a similar character, cannot lad to provide am ple materials lor this part ol our work. The resources and extensive correspondence ofthe publishers are tlie best guarantee lor tlie continuance of the enterpnze in winch they are about to embark, as well js for the abun dance of the materials to give it value in the eyes of the public. As far as judicious selec tion and arrangement are concerned, readers will it is hoped, have reason to be lully sutisli ed, as tlie editor of the Library is not a stran ger to them, but has more than once obtained their favorable suffrages tor his past literary elfort.i. TERMS. The work will be published in weekly nnin bers, in stitched covers, each number contain *ng twenty imperial octavo pages, with double columns, making two volumes annually, ol more than 52u octavo pages, each volume ; and at the expiration of every six months, subscri bers will he turnished with a handsome title page and table of contents. The whole amount ol matter lurnished in a single year, will be e qual to more than forty volumes of the com mon sized English duodecimo books. The pa per upon which tlie Library will be printed, will be ol the finest quality used for Look work, and ot a size admirably adapted for binding.— As the type will be entirely new, and ol a neat appearance, each volume when bound, will lurnish a handsome as well as valuable, and not cumbrous, addition to the libraries ot tiiose who patronize the work. The price ofthe Library will be Five Dollars per annum, payable u. advance. A commission oi 20 per cent, will be allowed to agents; and any agent or postmaster, fur nishing live subscribers, and remitting the a mouut of subscription, shall be entitled to the commission of siu per cent, or a copy of the work for one year.

This paper is made up iro.n the Daily Herald with such additional matter, in the snupe of stories, legends, poetry, statements of tlie markets, and such imoimutioii respecting sales as may be deemed advantageous to the yeomanry of the land.

The introduction of machinery in place of the tedious and unhealthy process of casting type by hand, a desideratum by the European founders, was by American ngenuity,a heavy expenditure of time and money on the part of our senior partner, first successfully accom plished. Extensive use of the machine-cast letter, has fully tested and established its su periority in every particular, over those cast by the old process.

Such a work is offered to the public from a firm conviction of its necessity and importance; and the editor has only to regret that abler hands have not undertaken to accomplish so desired an object as the advancement ot Litera ture in the South, before him. To effect which will be his constant and unerring aim.
