HAVING received a number of communi cations from individuals, making enquir es respecting my Brick Machine, invented by Galvin Waterman, and now in successful ope ration in this place, I take 'his method of an swering them—l invite all who feel disposed to purchase rights, to coir.e anijl see the opera tion of the machine, and if there be any one who says he is disappointed in his expectations, I bind myself to pay the expenses ot iiis trip. I do not expect to sell a right to any one with out their first having seen the machine; but in order to afford an idea of its value, I annex the following certificates, one of them signed by two of th<* most experienced brick masons in the Southern States. In my absence lroin Macon, the editors of the Messenger will act as mv authorized agents. T. L. SMITH. We having witnessed the performance of Mr T. L. Smith's new Brick Machine, invented by Calvin Waterman, now in operation in this place, take pleasure in recommending it to the public. The fact of its performance is rts besj recommendation. We timed it, and find that with new moulds and inexperienced hands, it made at the rate of two thousand three liund red and sixty-eight brick per hour. By mould ing ten hours in a day, it would therefore turn < ut twenty-three thousand six hundred per day*. It requires six boys to bear off. a id four to sand the moulds, Ac.—together with four grown men. Thus fourteen hands art sulficient to make the above named quantity ol the most beautiful brick per day. JOHN SPRINGER. DAVID F. WILSON.

IT cannot be denied that the present state ol our country demands peculiar and well di rected activity on the part ofthe press to make known the features ofthe various topics which are now agitating tile various portions of the national confederacy. To supply, at a low price, the inland towns with information, at a little delay only, after it lias been received in the Atlantic cities, is praiseworthy, and should in tlie end reward such persons as exert their ability for the successful furtherance of this ob j«‘VV" Tlie Editors and Proprietors of the Boston Dail\ I lerald, convinced of the importance ol a carefully conducted press to disseminate in formation throughout the country, some weeks since issued the lirst muiibyr of the Skmi \Vi;i ki.i lli i; ii.n ami Star, which they have found t> he suit aide to the wants of the inland community, as it furnishes over one hundred newspapers in a year, at the very low price ol two dollars. This paper is made up from the Daily I lerald with such additional matter, in the shape of stories, legends, poetry, statements of the markets, and such informal ion respecting sales as may be deemed advantageous to the yeomanry ot the land. The peculiarity of the Herald and Star will he found to he in the fact that while it is not engaged in party polities, it reserves to itselt the liberty of speaking boldly and openly on every subject which concerns the weal of the whoie country—and summons to aid. besides the constant supervision of the Editors, valua ble assistants. who are industriously and hour ly exerting themselves to give strength and a 1 1 i 1 itv to their various departments. The Herald and Star is published every Tries day and Friday morning, and mailed on the night previous m order to ensure its speedy transmission by the mails. The price i< Two Dollars a year payable in advance; jji2.*gs in three months; 8:2.50 in six months ; ,s3 at the end of the year. The best method to ensure the reception of the paper is to enclose If 2 in a letter addressed to the Fro prietors. HARRINGTON A U’O. Boston, 1837. sVotirr.

IN issuing a Prospectus for the 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 Experiment,” after a trial of almost I*J mouths, lias not failed in recuring for the Editor, the attention and pat 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 for the encouragement , manifested, desirous of making his little paper j worthy the patronage of an enlightened and l generous public, the subscriber has determined 1 to enlarge it to nearly* quadruple the present dimensions, so that it will contain nearly four times as much matter as it now does. Thus will be afforded greater space for his own lucu brations and those of correspondents, together with Advertisements and judicious selections. It may not be inappropriate here to remark, that, for w ant of room, sonje 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 for increased re- j ward ; and consequently, the subscription price ! ,or the second volume will be One Dollar in ; and vance, or One Dollar and Fifty Cents, at the ; expiration of the year. This alteration, it w ill be perceived, is not in proportion to the change of size 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 <ls cents per square for each subsequent insertion. U3 Those who can conveniently pay in ad vance, by doing so, will not only save them selves a heavy interest, but enable us, with more alacrity and advantage, to prosecute the work. F. J. ROBINSON. Washington, Ga., July 27, 1857. O*Papers publishing the above, will confer a favor. PROSPECTUS OF TH K ; SOUTHERN LITERARY MESSENGER. rpillS is a monthly Magazine devoted cliief _L ly to Literati re, but occasionally find ing room also for articles that tall within the scope of Science ; and not professing an eu- | tire disdain of tasteful selections, tlmUgh its matter has been, as it will continue to be, in, the main, original. Party Politics and controversial Theology, as far as possible,are zealously excluded. They j are sometimes so blended with discussions in literature or in moral science, otherwise unob- j I jectionable, as to gain admittance for the sake i | of the more valuable matter to which they ad- j here : but whenever that happens, they are in \ culrntal, only ; not primary. Tliey* are dross, tolerated only because it cannot well be ser ved from the sterling ore wherewith it is incor porated. Reviews, and Critical Notices, occupy their due space in the work : and it is the Ed itor’s aim that tliey should have a threefold tendency—to convey, in a condensed form, such valuable truths orjinteresting incidents as arc embodied in the works reviewed, —to direct the reader’s attention to books that deserve to be read, —and to warn him against wasting time and money upon that large number, which mer it only to be burned. In this age of publica tions that by tlieir variety anil multitude dis tract and overwhelm every undiscriminating student, impartial criticism, governed by I the views just mentioned, is one of the most inestimable and indispensable of auxiliaries, to him who docs icisli to discriminate. I Essays, and Tales, having in view utility or amusement, or both—Historical skktcii j K s—and Reminiscences of events too minute | for History, yet elucidating it, aad heighten ! ing its interest, —may he regarded as forming the staple of the work. And of indigenous Poetry enough is published—sometimes of no mean strain—to manifest and to cultivate the growing poetical taste and talents ol our coun ' try. | The times appear, for several reasons, to de | mand such a work—and not one alone, but I many. The public mind is feverish and irri tated still, from recent political strifes ; —The soft, assuasive influence of Literature is need led, to allay that fever, and soothe that irrita- I tion. Yiee and folly* are rioting abroad . —They should be driven by indignant rebuke, or lash ed bv ridicule, into their fitting haunts. Igno rance lords it over au immense proportion of our people : Every spring should be set in motion, to arouse the enlightened, and to in crease tlieir number ; so that the great enemy of popular government may no longer brood, like a portentous cloud, over the destinies of j our country. And to accomplish all these ends, | what more powerful agent can be employed, j than a periodical, on the plan ot tin* Messenger; j if that plan he but carried out in practice : \ The Bot ru peculiarly requires such an a , gent. In ail the Union, south of Washington, there are hut two Literary periodicals I North 1 ward of that city', there are probably at least twenty-five or thirty ! Is tills contrast justified by the wi alth, the leisure, the native talent, or the actual literary taste, of the Southern peo . pie. compared with those of the Not hern .** i No : for iii wealth, talents, and taste, we may i justly claim at least an equality with our breth ren ; and a domestic institution exclusively ; our own. beyond all doubt atlords us, it we 1 choose, twice the leisure for reading and wri j ting, which they enjoy. 1 It was from deep sense of this local want, that the word Sottiikkn was engrafted on the name of this periodical ; and not with any de i sign to nourish local prejudices, or to advocate supposed local interests. Far from any* such i thought, it is tin* Editor’s fervent wish, to see | the North and South bound endearingly togeth ! er forever, in the silken bands of mutual kind | ness and affection. Far from mediating Iwstil j ity to the North, he has already drawn, and he hopes hereafter to draw, much of his choicest matter thence : and happy indeed will lie deem ! himself, should his pages, by* making eacl| re gion know the other better, contribute in any essential degree to dispel the lowering clouds ( liiat nmv threaten the peace of both, and to j brighten and strengthen the sacred ties of fa i ternal love. The Soi tiiern Literary Messenger has now readied the lffth No. of its third volume. How far it has acted out the ideas here uttered, is not for the Editor to say. He believes, how ever. that it falls not further short of them, , than human weakness usutflly makes Practice fall short of Theory. No subscription will be received for less than | a Volume, and must either begin with the cur rent one—or may commence with 5 01. IV, the first number of which will be issued on the Ist January, hfflS.— The price is £5 per Yoluine, icliirh must he paid in all rases at the time oj . subscribing. This is particularly adverted to I now, to avoid misapprehension, or future mis understanding—as no order will hereafter be i attended to, unless accompanied with the price of subscription. THOMAS W.

ON the first of September next, will be is sued the first number of the Southern Lit crary Jjsjiirant, in quarto form, medium—to be conducted by the present Editor of the “ News Carrier;” at which time that paper will merge into the former. 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 of Litera ture in the South, before him. To effect which will be his constant and unerring aim. The Editor has received the assurance of assistance from man}*, upon whom he relies, with a pleas ing confidence, that himself nor the public, through him, will be disappointed in their ex pectations of its character and success. e intend that our paper shalLbe a faithful vehicle of general News. The cause of the Boutli. will be its cause, and the advancement ot her interest its chief aim and desire. Asa paper, it will espouse no party ; the important aflairs of Government, however, will not be suffered to pass unnoticed—and all sensible, judicious communications on this subject, pro vided they are free from party spirit, will re ceive particular attention. Persons obtaining ten responsible subscribers to tile Jlspirant, will be entitled to one copy gratis. Terms. The Aspirant will be published ev ery Saturday, in the city of Macon, at Two Dollars per annum—sl 25 for six months payable in advance. No subscription received for a less period.

The introduction of machinery in place of the tedious and unhealthy process of casting | type by hand, a desideratum by the European I founders, was by American ingenuity, a heavy j expenditure of time and money on the part of ! our senior partner, first successfully accom | plished. Extensive use of the machine-cast j letter, has fully tested and established its su i periority in every particular, over those cast by the old process. The letter foundry business will hereafter be carried on by the parties before named, un der the firm of White, Hager & Cos.

CAREY’S LIBRARY OF CHOICE LITERATURE. rpo say that this is a reading a ge , implies a desire for instruction, and the means to gratify that desire, on the first point, all are a gK-ed ; 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’ of 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 from the emporium of literature, engrossl ing occupations which prevent personal appli. cation of even messages to libraries and book sellers, are so many causes to keep people a way from 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, and to enable every individ ual, at a small cost and without any personal effort, to obtain for his own use and that of his lavored friends or family, 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. The charm of variety, as far as it is compati ble with morality and good taste, will be held constantly in view in conducting the Library, to fill the pages of which the current literature of Great Britain, in all its various departments of biography, history, travels, novels and poe try, shall he freely put under contribution. With perchance occasional exceptions, it is in tended to give entire the work which shall be selected for publication. When circumstances authorize the measure, recourse will be had to the literary stores of Continental Europe, and translations made from French, Italian or Ger man, as the case may be. Whilst the body of the work will be a reprint or at times a translation of entire volumes, the cover will exhibit the miscellaneous character of a magazine, and consist of sketches of men and things, and notices of novelties in literature and the arts throughout the civilized world A full and regular supply of the literary, month ly and hebdomadal journals of Great Britain and Ireland, in addition to home periodicals of a similar character, cannot fail to provide am ple materials for this part of our work. The resources and extensive correspondence of the publishers are the best guarantee for the continuance of the enterprize in which they are about to embark, as well as 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 fully satisfi ed, as the editor of the Library is not a stran ger to them, but has more than once obtained their favorable suffrages for his past literary efforts. TERMS. The work will be published in weekly mini bers, in stitched covers, each number contain ing twenty imperial octavo pages, with double columns, making two volumes annually, ol more than 520 octavo pages, each volume ; and at the expiration of every six months, subscri bers will he furnished with a handsome title page and table of contents. The whole amount of matter furnished in a single year, will be i* qual to more than forty volumes of the com mon sized English duodecimo books. The pa per upon which the Library will be printed, will be of the finest quality used for book work, and of a size admirably adapted for binding.— As the type will be entirely new, and of a neat appearance, each volume when bound, will furnish a handsome as well as valuable, ami not cumbrous, addition to the libraries of those who patronize the work.

Address E. L. CARY it A. HART, Philadelphia. PROPOSALS For publishing, by subscription, a ivork to be entitled Flora hi ear st icasi s. THIS will be, both a Grammar and Diction ary ot Botany ; —presenting, first, Vegeta ble Physiology, and, second, a minute and ac curate description of every plant yet discovered in Georgia, together with its medicinal or nox ious properties—its English name—its emblem, language, Ac. Such a work is much needed, at this time, in our Southern Institutions. We have no text book in Botany, calculated to render the science attractive. Such as avc have, are nothing more than a few disconnected facts in Physiology, or a dry desc iption of a few leaves, roots, flowers, Ac. all tending to excite disgust rather than taste. Students should, as soon as possible, be inducted into the practical part of the science—it is that only which can inspire them with enthusiasm in the prosecution of their researches. We have nev er known a profound botanist, made so, by delving for months over pages treating of sap, alburnum, cambium, and the like. Tliis work will teach pupils, first, the names of the classes and orders in the Linnean system, the method of analysing flowers, and, proceed next, to the examining, collecting and arranging of them into an herbarium. A lore for the science be ing thus implanted, it must and trill increase, and urge them on to further and further investi gations. We intend that our work shall be, at once, a text book for schools—a pleasing companion for ladies in the boudoir and saloon—a useful friend and companion for gentlemen iji their travels, their daily rambles, Ac. Finally, it will be enriched with every species of informa tion which can render such a work entertaining and instructive. We solicit the assistance of scientific gentle men throughout the State, in furnishing us with information concerning the names, locality and habits of plants in their immediate vicinity. — Such information will be gratefully and proper ly acknowledged. Postmasters are requested to act as agents in receiving and forwarding us subscriber’s names, as early as the Ist November. The work will contain from 5 to 700 pages, octavo, and be furnished to subscribers, in boards, at $5 per copy. It will be issued dur ing the next winter, provided the number of subscribers warrant the expense. All Editors throughout the Southern States, friendly to the diffusion of scientific knowledge, who will insert this notice, and forward us a copy of their paper, will be entitled to one copy of the work.
