TIIE SOUTHERN MAGAZINE, IS the name by which the new volume of the “Bachelor’s Button,” will be designated. There will be no material change in its appear ance. Each paper will contain abouto4 pages. Efforts will be made to improve the quality ra ther than increase the quantity of the matter. We do not wish to publish any thing that might be unreadable; and if we were to prom ise an hundred pages, half of them would nec essarily be written carelessly. This magazine is now larger than the subscription price war rants. The printing expenses, in Mobile, are twice as much as they would be in New York. This magazine has not yet received enough of patronage to sustain it; yet the Editor has not despaired of being aide to give it a firm foundation. The effort to establish it has, at least awakened a lively interest in its behalf, throughout the State; and a very slight exer tion, on the part of the talented and intellectu al portions of society, will ensure it eminent success. _ • One thousand subscribers will sustain the publication. We have now about six hundred. These are confined to South Alabama, and al most exclusively to some half dozen towns. North Alabama has taken no interest and giv en us no subscribers, with but two or three ex ceptions; yet this is our own fault, as we have made very little exertion to extend its circula tion in that section. Tnese facts lead us to be lieve that Alabama will eventually sustain us.' So far as we have been able to learn, the manner in which the Literary department ot this Magazine has been conducted, has met with general approbation. We have been com plimented, publicly and privately. This gives us great gratification; and we confidently prom ise much improvement, This prospectus will be sent to the postmas ters throughout the State, who are most re spectfully requested to exhibit it, together with this number of the Bachelor’s Button, as a specimen; and to act as agents. Our agents and friends can promote the complete success of this Magazine, by making very slight exer tions. Ten per cent, will be allowed on all re mittances by agents. Letters addressed to the editor should be post paid.

PROSPECTUS OF T li e ii \ f> v r i m|c it t. 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 nothis design to fulfil. “Tin; Experiment/’ after a trial of almost 12 months, has 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 lent for the pittance they contributed towards its support. Gratified for the encouragement manifested, desirous of making his little paper worthy the patronage ol’ an enlightened and generous public, the subscriber lias determined 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 notbe inappropriate here to remark, that, for 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 for increased re ward; and consequently,the subscription price for the second volume will be One Dollar in advance, or One Dollar and Fifty Cents, at the expiration of the year. This alteration, it will 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 25 cents pel square for each subsequent insertion. [LfThose 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.

PROSPECTUS OE TIIE Southern Literary Aspirant. ON tlie first of September next, will he is sued the first number of the Southern Lit erary Aspirant, 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 lias 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. Toeftcct which will be his constant and unerring aim. Tin- Editor has received the assurance of assistance from many, 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. We intend that our paper .shall be a faithful vehicle of general News. The cause of the South, will be its cause, and the advancement of her interest its chief aim and desire. Asa paper, it will espouse no party; the important -1 affairs of Government, however, will not he suffered to pass unnoticed—and all sensible, j judicious communications on this subject, pro vided they are free from party spirit, will re* ceivc particular attention.

THE publisher assures the citizens of Geor- 1 gia, who may think proper to subscribe to i the work, that he will use every exertion to | render it a liseful vehicle of such information j as may be of importance to them. The Cherokee Land Lottery will contain the names of all the fortunate drawers in the Land j Lottery, and their residence, up to the first of j January, 1838, with an engraved map of each Land District in the Cherokee Country, im- J mediately preceding the names in each district. I The Cherokee Land Lottery will contain about! five hundred pages, royal actavo size, will be j printed on good paper, neatly bound, and deliv- ! ered to subscribers by the first of March, 1838, j at fire dollars per copy.

Nov. 23. PROPOSALS For publishing, by subscription, a work to be entitled Tec ra Gcorgicnsis. rgAIJIS will be, both a Grammar and Diction -1 ary of 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, &c. Such a work is much needed, at tins time, in our Southern Institutions. We have no text, book in Botany, calculated to render the science attractive. Such as we have, are nothing more than a few disconnected facts in Physiology, or a dry desc iption of a few leaves, roots, Powers, iVc. 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 kpown a profound botanist, made so, by delving for months over pages treating of sap, alburnum, cambium, and the like. This 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 will increase, and urge them on to further and further investi gations. We intend that our work shall he, at once, a text book for schools—a pleasing companion for ladies in the boudoir and saloon—a useful friend and companion for gentlemen in their travels, their daily rambles, &c. 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 he gratefully and proper ly acknowledged. Postmasters are requested to act ns agents in receiving and forwarding us subscriber’s names, us early us the Ist November. The work will contain from 5 to 700 pages, octavo, and he furnished to subscribers, hi 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.

ON R THOUSAND DOLLARSRE WARD. \\ IIEIIEAS it has been reported that there is an outer bar opposite tlie entrance to the Port of Brunswick, in Georgia, some miles dis tant from that surveyed by three Cammission ers of the Navy in 1836, and having less water upon it; tlie above reward is offered to any per son who will discover any such bar so situated as to cause a hindrance to ships entering tha Port. * And whereas it has been also confidently ife. ported that there is a bar across the inner chan-- nol of Oglethorpe Bay, opposite the city of Brunswick, having only the depth of six or eight feet of water on it at low tide; a reward of five hundred dollars will be paid to any per son vvlm shall discover such bar, or any bar so situated, which has not an abundant depth’ot water upon it for the passage of merchant shipa of the first class up to the tuwn. The inner bar above alluded to is probably the one described in the following extracts, Ist, From the report*f the State Commis sioners, John G. PolhnT, Hugh Lawson and Moses Port, Esquires: “Between Brandy Point on this islani, and Dennis’s Folly on the Brunswick shore, these is an inner bar, upon which there is about twelve feet at low water, and, as the tide rises ten feet it gives the same depth of water that we find on the outer bar, with this advantage, that the bottom being soft mud creates no damage to ships and may be very easily deepened if it were necessary.
