Such a work is much needed, at this time, in our Southern Institutions. We have no text hook iu Botany, calculated to render the science attractive. Such ns vve have, are nothing more than a few disconnected facts in Physiology, or a dry dose iptiou of n few leaves, roots, flowers, Ac. all tending to excite disgnst rather than taste.

Wo have nev er known 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 Limn an 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 th»s implanted, it must and will increase, and urge them on to further and further invest i gat ion*. We intend that our work shall he, at once, a text book for schools—a pleasing companion for ladies in the boudoir ands llooa—a u. efu! friend and companion for gentlemen in 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 Stale, in furnishing us with information concerning the names, locality and habits of plants iu their immediate viein ty- Sueh information will be gratefully and proper ly acknowledged.

PROSPECTUS or the SOUTHERN LITERARY MESSENGER, r.rims i* a monthly Magazine devoted chief- ; X ly to Liniiuruu;, but occasionally find- ; ing room also for articles that fall within the j scope of Science ; and not professing an en tire disdain of tasteful selections, though its matter has been, a* it will continue to be, in the piain, original. Party Politics and controversial Theology. as far as possible,are zealously excluded. They are sometimes so blended with discussions in literature or in moral science, otherwise unob jectionable. as to gain admittance for the sake of the more valuable matter to which they ad here : hut whenever that happens, they are ni rid fatal, only ; not primary. They.are dross, tolerated only because'it cannot well be ser ved from the sterling ore wherewith it is incor , porated. •Reviews, and Critical Noxious, occupy 1 their dim space in the work : and it is the Ld ! itor s aim that they should have a threefold | tendency—to convey, in a condensed form, j such valuable truths or interesting incidents as ] are embodied in the works reviewed, —to direct j the ri ader’s attention to books that deserve to ;he read, — and to warn him agaitwt wasting time : and money upon that large number, which incr !it only to he burned. In this age of publica tions'that by their variety and multitude dis | tract and overwhelm every undiscriniinating | student, impartial critic ism, governed by i the views just mentioned, is one of the most | inestimable and indispensable of auxiliaries, to him who does wish to discriminate. Essays, and Tai.es, having in -view utility or,amusement, or both—lli stokicai. sketch es—and Reminiscences of events too minute for History, yet elucidating it, aad heighten ing its interest, —may be regarded as forming the staple of the work. And of indigenous PoETiiv enough is published—sometimes of no mean strain—to manifest and to cultivate the growing poetical taste and talents of our coun t r v. The times appear, for several reasons, to de mand such a work—and not one alone, hut many. The public mind is feverish and irri tated i.ti’sl, front recent political strifes : —The sort. assiinsive influence of Literature is need led, to allay that lever, and soothe that irrita tion. Vice and tolly are rioting abroad : —They j should be driven by indignant rebuke, or lash ed by ridicule, into their fitting haunts. Igno rance bods it over an immense proportion of jour people : livery spring should he set in ! motion. to amuse the enlightened v and to in- I crease their number ; so that the great enemy |of popular government may no longer brood, j like a portentous cloud, over the destinies ol ■ our <iu ll lrv. And to accomplish all these ends, what more powerful agent can he employed, than a periodical,on the plan ot the Messenger; j if that plan be blit carried out in practice ' ! Tlie Sos in peculiarly requires such an a : gent. In all the Union, south of Washington. there are but two Literary periodicals I North 1 w ard of that city, there are probably at least : twenty-five nr thirty I is this contrast justified I by the wealth, the leisure, the native talent, or i the actual literary taste, of the Southern pen ' pie, compared with those of the Nothern ? i No : for in wealth, talents, and taste, we may I in.-dly claim at least ail eyiialita with our breth ren " ami a domestic institution exclusively our own,beyond all doubt afl’ords us.it we choose, twice the leisure for reading and wri ting, which they enjoy. Il was from deep sense of this local want, that tile word Soi tiiern was engrafted on the name of this periodical : and not with any de sign to nourish local prejudices,or to advocate supposed local interests. Far from any such thought, it is the Editor's fervent wish, to see the North and fcjeiilli hound endearingly togetll cr forever, m the silken bauds ol mutual kind ness and affection. Far from mediating hostil ity to the North, he has already drawn, and he hopes hereafter to draw, much of liis choicest mailer thence : and happy indeed will lie deem himself, should liis pages, by making each re gion know the other better, contribute in any essential degree to dispel the lowering clouds that now Vhrealea the peace of both, audio brighten and strengthen tlie sacred ties ot ta ternal love. The Soi tiieun Literary Mkssenoeu has noiv reached the lb'tli No. oi its third volume, flow 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 usually makes Prather fail short of Th'ortj.

For convenience they can be neat-, | l v papered and labelled and assorted into boxes (or put up in strong papers, thereby saving the expense of box) each suitable fora family gar den, which will he supplied at from to gglo —the latter being sufficient to crop a garden of Or they can be put into (i 1-4 and 111 i-‘d cent papers, neatly labelled, and assort- 1 ed suitable for a retail dealer, each of which by tlie quantity will be charged so as to allow a profit of 80 per cent, on the New York retail prices. Any one wishing to engage in the vending of seeds, and not having experience, by addressing the proprietor will have the ne cessary information given, and they may feci confident they will be served with none but ar ticles of the very best quality.

MULBERRIES FOR SILK WORMS. 50,000 PLANTS el"the Chines* Mulberry or Mvrus viulticaidis, for sale. Os all the va rieties of Mulberries for silk, this appears most eminently entitled to preference, anil since its ill!reduction into France seems destined to re place every where the common White Mulber ry for the nourishment of silk worms, such is its superiority over all others. The tree is beautiful and ofa rapid growth, and will thrive well in almost any situation, and a few years are suffiqicntto raise considerable fields of them in full vigor, sufficient to support an immense number of silk worms. The raising of silk is as easy ns the raising of wheat, and much less laborious. For a number of years past it has been a regular and profitable employment of many of the farmers ol'Cnnnccticut, during the early part of the summer, and is emphatically a business of the farmer—of the cottage—a simple labor, in which females and children who do not essentially aid in supporting a fam ily may turn their services to profit. Every family of the most limited means can raise the mulberry and produce cocoons, and fora trifle can procure a pamphlet which will give them the necessary information of ree ling, Ac. The plants can he packed so as to h<> transported to anv part of the Union and will he furnished in quantities to suit purchasers, and at very mod erate rates.

Such was the unprecedeut 'ed popularity which attended its projection i that, in about six months from the period it was first issued, not less than fifteen thousand ! names were embraced on its subscription lists! ' which have been ever since constantly and j rapidly increasing, and now bid fair to super j cede in extent and stability every other pub lication which lias existed in the literary World. it is generally conceded that the contents of ' the Messenger embraces as much origimal matter us any otiier periodical of the present day.

Arrangements j have been entered into, by which the publish !er will he assisted in the editorial department jby the talents of three „or four gentlemen of j distinguished abilities—and it is intended to introduce several important improvements, i which will bespeak additional popularity for . its'eolumus. As the character and leading features of this Journal are well known throughout the United States, it will be superfluous to enter into a recital ot the same. The season is approach ing, however, when the reading public are ex pected to make their selections for the next year, and we deem it advisable, therefore, to furnish a brief and explicit statement of our terms, which we hope will prove satisfactory, and be implicitly observed : A ten dollar bill, forwarded by mail, postage paid, will pay for ten copies of the Messenger for one year I A five dollar bill, forwarded by mail, postage paid, will pay for four copies for one year I Two dollars, paid in advance, is the price of an individual subscription for one year One dollar, in advance , will pay for a single subscription for six months only.

HAGER, respectfully » inform the Printers of the United States, to whom they have been individually known as established letter founders, that they have now formed a co-partnership in said business, and an extensive experience, they hope to be able to give satisfaction to all who may favor them with their orders. 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 ingenuity, a heavy expenditure of time and money on the part of our senior partner, first-successfully accoin plished. Extensive use of the machine-cast letter, has fully tested and established its su periority in every particular, over those cast bv the old process.

Giv ing full accounts of sales, markets and news of the latest dates. Without interfering with the usual variety, the Courier has presented ten of the most popular literature of the day within the last year. This feature puts into the hands of its patrons the most entertaining and popnlar current literature, umountingdach year to six times the price paid for subscription—in addi tion to the immense quantity of other matters which appear in it* columns. In the contin uation of this feature we shall endeavor to pre sent new and popular works with such expedi tion that the publication cannot be anticipated in other sources. In the future numbers wu shall draw from the pens of such writers as D'lsraeli, Miss Mitford, Capt. Maryatt, Leitch Ritchie, Miss London, J. R. Buckstone,- Charles Dickins, Barry Cornwall; Cornelius Webb, Douglass Jerrold, Theodore Hook, Croflon Croker, Thomas Campbell, Mrs. S. C. Hall, Haynes Bayly, Mrs. Gore, And, in short, from the whole range of the current literature of Europe, with which our arrangements will supply us at as early a mo ment as they can be received in the country. Besides we have the pleasure of numbering among our contributors many of the most dis tinguished writers of our country, from whose pens ORIGINAL TALES. POEMS, SONGS, NARRATIVES AND SKETCHES, will con tinue to add interest to its columns. The Architectural beauty of many of the PUBLIC BUILDINGS of this city is prover bial.

For this small sum subscribers get valuable and entertaining matter each week enough to fill a common hook of two hundred and fifty pages, and equal to fifty two volumes a year, and which is estimated to be read, week ly, by at least two hundred thousand people, scattered in all parts of the country, from Maine to Florida, and from the sea board to the lakes. This approved Family Newspaper is strictly neutral in religious and political matters, and the uncompromising opponent of quackery of every kind. 03’As a trifling expression of our regard, we shall print the whole series of the Engra ved Illustrations, at their completion, upon tine white paper, in uniform style—forming a beau tiful collection of Views, and present them to such of our Country Brethren as may oblige us by an insertion of the above advertisement.

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 the access to a literary banquet, more than two fold ac cessible ; we gave, and shall continue to give, in the quarto library, a volume weekly for two cents a day ; we now propose to give a volume, in the same period, for 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 wo can go still further in the matter of reduction, and we feel, that there is still vorxo enough for us to aim at offering to an increasing literary appetite, that mental food which it craves. The Select Circulating Library, now as ever so great a favorite, will continue to make its weekly visits, and to be issued in a form lor binding and preservation, and its price and form will remain the same. Rut we shall, in tlie first week of January, 1837, issue a huge sheet, of the size of tlie largest newspapers of America, but on very superior paper, also,fill et! with books, of the newest and most entertain ing, though, in their several departments of Novels, Tales, Voyages, Travels, &c., select in their character, joined with reading, such as should till a wee kly newspaper. By this meth od, we hope to accomplish a great good ; to en 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 dentj and to do it in a manner that the most sceptical shall acknowledge “ the power ol concentration can no farther go.” No book, which appears in Waldie’s Quarto Library, will be published in the Omnibus, which will be an entirely distinct periodical. Teems. Waldie’s Literary Omnibus, will he issued every Friday morning, printed on pa per of a quality superior to any other weekly sheet, and of tiie largest size. It will contain, Ist. Books, the newest and the best that can he procured, equal every week, to a London duodecimo volume, embracing Novels, Travels* Memoirs, Ac., and only chargeable, with .Yctcs paper postage. •Jd. Literary reviews, tales, sketches, notices iff books, and information from “the world of l\Ucrs,” of every descript ion. Rd. The news of the week, concentrated into, a s\'ill compass, but in a sufficient amount to embrace a knowledge of the principal events, political and miscellaneous, ol Europe and A incrica. The price will be TWO DOLLARS to club* of five subscribers, where the paper is forward ed to one address. The clubs of two individ uals, FIVE DOLLARS ; single mail subscrib 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. [PJ J On no condition will a ropy ever be sent, until the payment is received in advance. As the arrangements for the prosecution of this great literary undertaking, are all made, and the proprietor hf* redeemed all his pledges to a generous public for many years, no fear ol non-fulfilment of the contract can be felt. The Omnibus will be regularly issued, and will contain, in a year,.reading matter equal in a mount to two volumes of Rees’ Cyclopedia, for the small sum mentioned above.
