PROSPECTUS A yveekly paper, PUBLISHED AT BRUNSWICK, GLYNN COUNTY, GEORGIA. The causes which render necessary the es -1 ablishment of this Press, and its claims to the support of the public, can best be presented by the statement of a few facts. Brunswick possesses a harbor, which for ac cessibility, spaciousness and security, is une qualled on the Southern Coast. This, of itself would bo sufficient to render its growth rapid, and its importance permanent; for the best port South of the Potomac must become the site of a great commercial city. But when to this is added the singular salubrity of the cli mate, free from those noxious exhalations gen erated by the union of salt and river Yvaters, and which are indeed “charnel airs” to a white population, it must be admitted that Brunswick contains all the requisites for a healthy and populous city. Thus much has been the work of Nature ; but already Art has begun to lend her aid to this favored spot, and the industry of man bids fair to increase its capacities, and add to its importance a hundred fold. In a few months, a canal will open to the harbor of BrunsYvick the vast and fertile country through Yvhicli flow the Altamaha, and its great tribu uries. A Rail Road will shortly be commenc ed, terminating at Pensacola, thus uniting the waters of the Gulf of Mexico Yvith the Atlantic Ocean. Other Rail Roads intersecting the State in various directions, will make Bruns wick their depot, and a large portion of the hade from the Valley of the Mississippi will yet find its way to her wharves. Such, in a feYv words, are the principal causes which will operate in rendering Brunswick the principal city of the South. But xvhile its advantages are so numerous and obvious, there have been found individuals and presses prompted by sel fish fears and interested motives, to oppose an undertaking which must add so much to the importance and prosperity of the State. Their united powers are noYv applied to thwart in every possible manner, this great public bene fit. Misrepresentation and ridicule, invective and denunciation have been heaped on Bruns- Yvick and its friends. To counteract these ef forts by the publication and Yvide dissemination of the facts—to present the claims of Bruns- Yvick to the confidence and favor of the public, to furnish information relating to all the great works of Internal Improvement noYv go ing on through the State, and to aid in devel oping the resources of Georgia, will be the leading objects of this Press. Such being its end and aim, any interfer ence in die party politics of the day would be improper and impolitic. Brunswick has re ceived benefits from—it has friends in all par ties, and every consideration is opposed to rendering its Press the organ of a party. To the citizens of Georgia—and not to die mem bers of a party—to die friends of Brunswick— to the advocates of Internal Improvement— to the considerate and ' reflectiug—do we apply lor aid and support Terms —Three dollars per annum in ad vance, or four dollars at die end of the year J.

Love launch'd a gallant little craft, Complete Yvith every rope: In golden Yvords Yvas painted aft— “ The Cupid, Captain Hope. ’ Pleasure was rated second mate, And Passion made to steer; The guns were handed o'er to Fate, To Impulse, sailing-gear. Merrily roY’ed the thoughtless crew Amidst the billows’ strife ; But soon a sail bore doYvn, —all knew ’Tyytis Captain Reason's ‘-Life,” And Pleasure left, though Passion said He’d guard her safe from all harms, ’Twas vain ; for Fate ratnm’d home the lead While Love prepared the small-arms. A storm arose !

The mystery of rendering horses of the most unruly character, perfectly obe dient and docile, seems to be satisfactori ly unfolded in the annexed communica-l tion, which we extract from the N. Y. Spirit of the Times. For many years,! this curious art has been deemed by the | world, sometliing like a supernatural "ill, with which few men, and these “far be- j tween,” were endoived. According to Mr. I ,ewis’ account of the matter, anv person possessing a quick eye, ready hand, active heel, and a certain portion of; animal courage, Ify following the simple rules of Mr Jonathan Smith, can learn to break the most unruly horse that ever stood upon four legs. Llyangollen, Ky. Feb. ID, 1-537. Dear Sir :—lt Yvas on the doth of May, 1823, at Orange Court House, in the Old Dominion, (God bless her !) where 1 then lived, that I first saw the late Jon athan Smith. It was Court day, and he, surrounded by a crowd oj gentlemen, be gan thus : ‘Every groom and trainer, gentlemen, has his own Yvay of bridling,and breaking and managing horses. lam a teacher of the art ; 1 can tame the most ungoverna ble horse on this green in one hour. And if any of you want to know how, I will teach you the theory and show’ you the • practice on this condition : If I fail, you shall pay me nothing ; if I succeed, and satisfy you that you can do it as well as I, you and each of you, shall pay me 810. I will make the horse follow me without bridle, halter or saddle, through this croYvd ; stand quietly while I crack this whip repeatedly over his back : make him give me any foot at command, and lie down if you wish it.’ ‘Agreed, agreed !’ cried half a dozen voices, of which I was one. ‘Bring up I Madison’s mare, and if he can do half what lie says with her, he must deal with the devil.’ ‘No, gentlemen,’ said Smith, ‘there is no devlislnncnt in it, but plain common sense, as you will see. Take the mare into that house yonder ; (it yvhs a log house, about twenty feet square) all hor- j ses may be managed in the same way.’ The mare was a wild, skittish young | thing, pampered withal, disposed to kick and bite and would not let a stranger touch her. Come gentlemen,’ said Smith,‘let ns ! go to the stable.’ As he went along, lie examined care fully a whip which he carried, formed, like a wagoner’s, but lighter in the han dle, and longer in the thong and lash. When Yve got to the door, Smith, said no man but himself should enter. ‘Look; through the cracks, and see what I do,! and how I do it. Shut the door after me, I and fasten it.’ lii he went suddenly and very boldly, and before the mare could survey him, he was giving her the lash on her hind legs and thighs, with quick, sharp strokes. Around she went, kicking,jumping,back ing out, and seeming as if she would break through the side of the house, keeping the greatest possible distance from him. No rest, no breathing time was given ; the sweat began to flow, and the mare began to slacken her movements, and occasionally to turn so as to screen j her hind legs from the lash. When she turned her head towards him and'ap proached nearest, he stopped the whip, i stretched out his hand towards her and ! said ‘Come along.’ But she yvus oflT a- I gain instantly, and again the lash was ap plied. Presently she stopped, turned, looked at him, and inclined slightly towards him. He reached,out his hand, j stopped whipping, and touching her neck, saying again, ‘Come along.’ But there Yvas no come along in her ; there she j stood sullenly. Away he leaped, and pli ;ed the lash and repeated ‘Come along.’ She soon turned, came towards him and | stopped. He Yvas watching her, and the | moment she began, lie did also, so that noYv he was near her, lie patted her, stop i ped whipping, and as he moved away, said ‘come along.’ She beg in to move | with him ; but as if panic struck, a mo | meat afterwards darted olf. The lash was poured into her. She stopped, trein j hied, and dunged. ‘You’ll see now,” said Smith to us, ‘they generally do this when giving up.’ She approached ; he patted her neck, , stopped whipping, and said ‘come along,’ inoving slowly from her. She iioyv obey ed, following him several times round the { room. He patted her neck, and, as she was following him, he suddenly darted a ! way and began with the whip, crying j ‘come along.’ Instantly she was at his ! side, and the whip ceased to flash thro’ the air, and he was patting her neck as . she followed him round. Whenever she ! lagged, he was away, and the whip appli-, ed. Never after that would she remain tYvo feet from him. ‘You see, gentlemen,’ said lie, ‘the principle. The whip never touches her to hurt, when near me ; nothing that I bring i to her, is to hurt her, so much as her fear of me, or any thing in contact with me.’ He then took off his glove, thrust his list into his armpit, and then rubbed it on and in her nostrils. After walking a few more times round, the room, the mare fol lowing close to him he said, ‘open the door.’ The door was opened, and the mare followed close to him off to the crowd, and through it and back again to the stable. He came out, closed the jloor and said, this, gentlemen, is always the first lesson, and never has to be repeated. Alter a horse follows in the stable, it is but to make him do it in a small lot, where he cannot escape you. —It has taken about thirty minutes. On the whole, it is hu mane, for it prevents all future conten tion. On entering her stable hereafter, she would be reminded by a single touch of the whip, and ‘come along.’ She will now follow the smallest boy, who will go in alone, give her the hint with the whip, and say,‘come along,’ for a treaty has been formed Yvith her to this effect, that when near you, she is never to lie struck; but it at a distance and disobedient, she suffers not after the fault, but during its commission. By this treatment her whole nature will he changed, and she may he taught, by the rational application of the principle, to do any thing that a horse can do. 1 will now show you that she will let me handle her feet, &.c., as soon as I teach her what I want her to do.’ He went in and closed the door. She came up to him ; lie patted her shoulder, then her arm, arid carried his hand down the foreleg ; she drew hack and trembled. In an instant he was away from her, and the lash applied with ‘come along.’ Up she came, and he began again ; she now stood fast, Yvhile he ran his hand over her leg, patting and soothing her. ‘She is now satisfied, you see, that she is not to he hurt when I touch her.’ lie then went from leg to leg, till she stood perfectly quiet while he handled them, lie then slightly tapped the in side of the foreleg, and said ‘foot, foot.’ She raised it on the toe ; he took hold of it gently, but firmly, raised it from the ground, and patted her, then stopped a few moments, and repeated it, till when he tapped it she raised the foot olf the ground for him. This he did repeatedly to every foot. ‘>She now understands,’ said he, ‘that when 1 slightly tap her leg, and say‘foot,’ 1 want her to give it to me, and she will doit, for if she docs not, she will know the consequence. I will oir yonder, and the lash will take my place ; I'm the most agreeable of the two. Horses taught this, will never kick you ; they are not only not afraid, hut from the asso ciation of ideas, take pleasure in your touch; it is the sign of peace. I will now put her confidence in me to the se verest test. He raised the whip, laid it on her back, rubbed her with it ; she trembled like a leaf till she stood nearer to him, as if for protection. He patted her; shook the whip over her, then increased its motion i parallel to her back, till it whizzed in the air, without even touching her, louder and louder it sounded, till he began to crack it over her ; once only did she |retire, and back again instantly, for the, moment she was off, she felt the lash. As-1 "HEAR ME FOR MT ('A USE.” j ter this, he suddenly receded raised the Uvhip, and said, ‘come along.’ Up she came; then lie cracked it over her very | often, and she never moved from him. I You see now, gentlemen, that the j cracking the Yvhip is also a sign of peace j She will come to it if she sees me, al though a quarter of a mile olf Suppose your horse is afraid of an umbrella, or any thing else: take it to the stable,make him follow you with it on \our arm ; then on his hack, and then take him into a lot so small that he cannot escape you, and make him follow there, in like manner. He will soon cease to fear any thing,when you thus prove to him that it will not hurt him ; or it he is afraid, the great fear of distance, and the lash \viil cast out the least fear of any thing in contact with you. Break your colts and fillies in-ac cordance with these principles, applied by common sense, and they will play no tricks. Give your colt a first lesson ; at the next, make him come up, lay the bri dle on his head : when used to it, put it on, make him follow with the bridle on, without bolding it, then lead him. Han dle his leg, and feel as you have seen done to day.—Teach him "also to bear the crack ol the whip near him, and over his buck. These several teachings should occupy fifteen or twenty minutes, twice a day, for three or four days, then you may bring your blanket and circingle to him; goon as witli the umbrella. When ■ lie is used to them, girt the blanket on ; make him follow with it on; do this sev ; oral times ; after- that, bring in your saddle, use him to it in the same manner. Put it on, and make him follow ; after he is used to it, layover it along, narrow hag, with thirty pounds in eacii end, and let him follow with these on in the stable, and in the lot, Yvitli the bridle drawn as tight as when in the hands of a rider. : Repeat this several times, and yon may put on your boy in the stable ; ’still lot j him follow you ; then in the lot several times. After a day or tYvo you may in crease your distance from him, towards the centre of the circle in which he walks. He will soon walk around the lot, obey ing the bridle of the hoy. You may now bring in another gentle horse, with a ri der on, to walk with him, but before him at first. Alter a few walks thus in the lot, you may take them out, and with or dm ary care, your colt is broken and gen tle, without having injured himself or his rider.— I o teach him to lie down, is quite easy, after the foot lesson. Take a fore foot from the ground, hold it firmly ; tap the other fore leg, and ask for it. He will necessarily come on his knees. Per haps lie will bounce up, alarmed at his new position. But you must have pa tience to teach a horse what you want him to do. Begin again, bring him in I thfi same manner as at first, on his knees, j till h« will remain quiet in that attitude, permitting you to walk round him witli out attempting to rise. Do this until lie |is used to it ; then, when he is on his knees, go to a hind foot, and make him ghe that to you. \\ hen in that position, ask lor the other hind loot; and down he : comes on lus side. Perhaps (if he is a timid animal) he will he alarmed at his new position, and rise up instantly ; hut lake care to pat him as lie goes down, and while he is on the ground ; hut as he rises ) and is firmly on his feet, you must retire, and give him a slight admonition with the lash, that Ik* is doing wrong to net up so soon. Go again and again through the same routine, he will soon understand what you want him to do. ! And a horse taught thus, will do for you any tiring that he can do when lie under stands you ; and, gentlemen, lie is not slow ol understanding. The horse is ; naturally a very observing, sagacious and sensible animal, docile and obedient, when once thoroughly convinced of the superior powers of man. And his intel lectual powers, it 1 may say so without ’ offence, are like those of man, much im proved by proper exercise or education, with this remarkable difference: ‘■A man convinced against his will, Is of the same opinion still.” Not so with the horse. He never is of the same opinion, after argumentum ad njiium has once convinced him. The lesson ot punishment at a distance from you, and teaching that near you is the place of safety and peace, with the con sequent following you in the stable and out of it, is the first step always,- and the! key of the whole system. This first les-' son must be more effectual, by persever ance and courage. I say courage, for: some horses fight bravely in the first les-i son; never afterwards, if subdued. If! they merely kick and back towards you, | the size of the room enables you by keep-; ing your eye constantly on them, and si deling round, to avoid their heels, as you apply the lash. The horse will soon be tired of- presenting his hind legs to you. But if the horse be a strong, high-spirited stallion of some age, who, badly managed by some timid groom, has had his own way, when he turns his head towards you, then comes the tug of war. In such ca- ses, gentlemen, I make myself a little ug ly and outlandish in my appearance, be fore I enter his presence: and 1 enter in a very hold and dashing style, (for horses arc very subject to panic from sudden un usual appearances.) Before he recovers his self-possession, and can wonder at my audacious impudence, 1 fall aboard of him like five and forty wild cats and be fore he is sufficiently self-possessed to front you, he is inspired with some con siderable respect for his new customer’s courage and prowess. But after a while, lie begins to think the joke is carrying • too far. lie turns and gives you a look, which plainly says, ‘who the devil are you V lam sorry to make the noble horse swear, on even so provoking an oc casion ; But I assure you he is not so much addicted to it as jackasses, and some other animals, and he may at least plead the excuse of—‘evil communications cor rupt good manners,’ for this bad habit. Now he surveys you, notwithstanding the sharp lasii incessantly applied to tiie hind legs, fixes his gaze on you, lays his ears close to Iris head, draws back his lips, dis closing his teeth, opens his mouth, raises his fore feet and dashes right at you. Woe to the timid braggart, who, with wand ering eye or daunted breast, is not ready with hand, and heart, and heels,and eyes, for this crisis. Perhaps his time is come ! ‘Poor Johnny Raw, what madness could impel So rum a ilat to face so prime a swell.’ Let none such presume to exercise the art of mastering even, much less the no ble science of subduing the horse. But the fearless and practised horse teacher is ready for the encounter. His eye was fix ed upon* him, he foresaw tin? coming storm, and as the open mouth and lrigii raised hoof of the indignant and enraged animal approach, lie seems to meet them : •But when this shadow's o'er his brow, lie slips aside, So nimbly slips, that the vain robber past Through empty air. and lie so high, so vast, Who dealt the stroke, came thundering to the ground; Nor rest. nor pause, nor breathing time is given, lint rapid as the rattling hail from heaven, Beats on the house-top, showers of-horseman's shot,’ Around the ‘Stallion’s legs fly peppering hot.' From this to the finish is all-tweedle dee.’ You now have my secret—so hand mo the fee.” ' \Vc did hand Jonathan his fee, arid 1 have no reason to repent it, for 1 believe that this method has more than once sa ved my life, although I am no Jack Mvt ton, to throw myself under a horse’s heel's or ride full tilt over a rabbit warren. JOHN LEWIS, Late of Spottsylvania Cos. Virginia. Extract from a work entitled “ The Rat Trap; or, Cogitations of a Convict in the House of Correction,” by William J. Snelling, of Boston. In the following extract the writer gives a description of his first night in a cell: “I expected to return to the receiving rooms at night, but Yvas agreeably disap pointed, being ordered to join the fourth division, and placed in safety in a cell on the third floor of the prison, under the immediate charge of the officer I have al ready mentioned as my unprovoked ene my. Hero, being locked up for the night, 1 lor the first time had leisure for reflec tion, and u sorrowful privilege it was.— “llcre, ’ thought I, ‘‘l am a man: who was once beloved by some, respected, and even honored, by many, a fellow common er with vagabonds and felons, wearing their uniform, eating of their loaf and drinking of their cup, degraded to their level, and deserving to be so. Hence forth 1 can never call myself a gentleman, scarce even a man. My foes rejoice, and my friends, if I have any, weep. They will be my friends no more. I have for feited their good opinion, and, what is worse, ;ny own also—ay, there’s the rub! With talents equal to great things, and opportunities conformable to them, I have abused the one and wilfully thrown away the other. I have made some noise in the world; I have been a hot friend and a bitter enemy. . ‘•I foully hoped to write on high A name with those who cannot die.” But I have only raised myself to fall the lower and the harder. What comfort re mains? I never had any religion, nor was any ever taught me, for my mother died early, and the toils of war left my gallant father no time to attend to me ; and 1 have no saving faith in its promis es. Ido remember, indeed, that, when 1 was a very little boy, one of my aunts taught me the Lord’s prayer, the ten com mandments and the catechism, but I have forgotten the latter long ago. I have read the Bible, particularly Job, Isaiah, the Proverbs, and the Psalms, till I have them almost by rote. I have read the eviden ces of God’s existence, goodness, great ness and power, written by his own migh ty ha4r on the forest and the limitless prairie, in the lake and the thundering cataract, in every part of the rolling earth beneath and the star-studded vault above : and it has filled me with wonder and'ad- J.

I know not whether I have a soul or not; I am sure I have lived as if I had none; and if I have, 1 certainly am very little concerned about it. I know not whether | there he a heaven or a hell—l hope thertrt ' are both ; this for my own sake, and that) j for the sake of sortie others. If the for i mer, I can only, they say, attain it by re pentance, and that I am sure I cannot feel, try I ever so hard; if the latter I have no fear of it. Sooth to say, Ido not j think I have done, or can do, anything to I deserve fire everlasting ; and if I could, t think God is too good and too merciful to doom me to it. The mild principles of Jesus breathe nothing of the horrible malignity such a doom would imply. The grim, ruthless God of Calvin is not the God of my adoration ; were there indeed such a being, I would refuse to bow down and worship, at all risks. All that 1 have heard and read on such subjects seems to me to be vain wisdom and ftlsc philosophy. I may be wrong, though if I be, so are all Unitarians, universalits, and many other Christians. Let fiim recon cile jarring creeds who will—l eschew the task. Faith cannot be forced, be it never so necessary. I believe little; I deny nothing. I cannot mix heaven with ,my thoughts of earth, for the life of me. Shall 1 look for comfort in the past, then? j Save me, save me from myself! What j man would not shudder were all his ac (tions, all his secret thoughts t« pass in ar ray before him? Look Ito the present? what am I? A drunkard, a vagabond, an outcast: the worthy companion of felons! To the future? My name is already be come a byword for the vulgar and the vile. My fortunes blasted, and so is my name, now. The high places that have known me w ill knoYv me no more. Yet I have robbed none, I have deceived none, I have injured none without strong provo cation. What are these literal bonds, these physical hardships? Nothing. yls my fare coarse? I have fared worse. Is my bed hard ? He who has slept soundly on the bare deck, on the bare ground in summer, and the snowdrift in winter, without complaining, need not be curi ous about his lodging. Need I fear pun ishment ? The worst here is but scanty allowance of food; which is no great mat ter. I have fasted four days, and I know there is nothing very appalling in literal starvation. If men bow not to me as once, if they couple my name with evil, if they regard my person Yvith scorn, will it change one hair of my head from che9nut to white, or alter the complexion of my true character one shade? What can they of me? I drink! Grant it, and still I am a better man drunk than my en emies are sober, in every sense of the word. The worst is, I have lost all that once sustained me, my own esteem. My reputation is blasted, my pride crushed, my hopes extinguished. O, for a draught of Let lie, to forget all, myself, the past and the present; for an early grave, that 1 might creep, for I am unworthy to walk into it, and hide my dishonor!”— Tims rail my thoughts till my blood gush ed from my hitter lip in my agony, and a troubled sleep brought no relief. Gueat events from mttCe causes/ In the history of the world, it will be ; found, that the most important circum stances that have taken place, and the | mightiest convulsions that have disturbed j mankind, have arisen apparently from the i most trivial causes. In a late number jof the “Southern Literary Messenger” a j writer, who signs It. Sanders, has pub lished a large number of extracts from a French work, published in Dublin, in the year 4705, and remarks “had I room, l could copy nearly half the book, with out fearing to tire mv readers, so true it is that ‘truth is stranger than fiction.’ ” We condense the following. “In Roman history, it is found, that the government was overthrown in conse l qticnce of Collutinus’ praising his wife Lucretia. The love of Appius Claudius for Virginia, destroyed the Decemvirate-. The jealously of a woman against her j sister raised the Piebians to the Consular , dignity. Fulvia’s disgust towards her lov=- er caused the discovery of Cataline’s , conspiracy. Anthony and OctaviaS fought in consequence of the ugliness of Fuivia. The quarrel of two men of the lowest condition, the one a Genoese, the other a Venetian, occasioned a war' be tween those Republics,' in fcrhioh much wealth was expended and many valuable lives destroyed. A Genoese shoemaker, caused the government of? the’ republic to lie changed. -An Empress' treated her’ daughter with severity, and Attila incon sequence ravaged Gafrl and Italy, and laid the foundation of Venice. A game of dice settled in Africa, ud made them ravage Italy and sack Rofbe.; Chilperic, King of France struck kH wife with a switch in sport and wa»~«snMill» ated in consequence. ■ The settlement of
