It was one of the great objects of “Waldie's Library,” "to makegood reading cheaper, and to bring Literature to every man's door.” This object lias been accomplished ; we have given to hooks 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 rents a •tereh. 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 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 for binding and preservation, and its price and form will remain the same. But we shall, in the first week of January, lci37, issue a huge sheet, of the size of the largest newspapers of America, but on very superior paper, also, fill ed trith hooks, of the newest and most entertain ing, though, in their several departments ol Novels, Tales, Voyages,Travels, aVc., select in their character, joined with reading, such as should fill a weekly 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 hook form, would alarm the pockets of the pru dent, and to do it in a manner that the most sceptical shall acknowledge " the power of 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. Terms. Waldie’s Literary Omnibus, will be issued every Friday’ morning, printed on pa per of a quality superior to any other weekly sheet, and of the 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, &c., and only chargeable with News paper postage, 2d. Literary reviews, tales, sketches, notices .of books, and information from "the world of Jetters,” of every description. 3d. The news of the week, concentrated into a small compass, but in a sufficient 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 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. [o= On no condition will a copy ever he 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 has redeemed all his pledges to a generous public for many years, no fear of 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. Address (post I'a'd.)

COOK AND JOB PRINTING, Done at this Office, I Increased Attractions ! | PHILADELPHIA SATURDAY COURIER THE vast patronage which has been awar ded the Courier is the best evidence of I its approval. It has the largest subscription j list in this country. It is the largestand chea ! pest Family Newspaper ever issued in the U ; nited States, containing articles in Literature i Science and the Arts ; Internal Improvement, | Agriculture, in short every variety of topics | usually introduced into a public Journal. Giv j ing full accounts of sales, markets and news of the latest dates. • Without interfering with the usual variety, t the Courier has presented ten of the most popular literature of the day within the j last year. This feature puts into the hands of I its patrons the most entertaining and popular ; current literature, amounting each year to six [ times the price paid for subscription—in addi j l ' on to the immense quantity of other matters ! which appear in its columns. In the contin | nation of this feature xve 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 wc shall draw’ from the pens of such writers as D Israeli, Miss Mitford, Capl. Maryatt, Leitch Ritchie, Miss London, J. R. Buekstone, Charles Dickins, Barry Cornwall, Cornelius Webb, Douglass Jerrold, Theodore Hook, Crofton 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 j arrangements will supply us at as early a mo- j ment as they can be received in the country, j Besides we have the pleasure of numbering • among our contributors many of the most dis- j 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. Believing it will he acceptable to our numerous patrons to be presented with EN GRAVED ILLUSTRATIONS of those edi fices, we are engaged in bringing out a com plete series, which will form a collection that may well lie termed, THE LIONS OF PHIL ADELPHIA. Where it is expedient, we ac company the engravings with such descriptions of size and lacts of history’, as may be of inter est. The Courier is published at the low price of Two Dollars. For this small sum subscribers get valuable and entertaining matter each week enough to fill a common book 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. [pr Asa trifling expression of our regard, we shall print the whole series of the Engra ved Illustrations, at their completion, upon fine 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. 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 about t)4 pages. Efforts will be made to improve the quality ra ther than increase tile quantity of the matter. YVe do not wish to publish any tiling that might be unreadable; and if we were to prom ise an hundred pages, half of tin in 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 lias not yet received enough of patronage to sustain it; yet the Editor has not despaired of being able to give it a linn foundation. The effort to establish it lias, 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 tin publication. YVe have now about six hundred. These are confined to South Alabama, anil 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. These facts lead us to be lieve that Alabama will eventually sustain us. So far as we have betm able to learn, the manner in which the Literary department of this Magazine lias been conducted, has met with general approbation. YVc have been com plimented, publicly and privately. This gives us great gratification; and we confidently prom ise much improvement. This prospectus will he 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 initiances by agents. Letters addressed to the editor should be post paid. Terms. —The Southern Magazine will be publishedjin the City of Mobile, on the first of every month: the first number on the Ist of January’, Price Five Dollars a year in advance. Subscribers can be furnished with the back number*of the “Bachelor's Button.” Pub haliers of newspapers friendly to our success, will please insert the prospectus. GLYNN SUPERIOR COURT.

J. BURNETT, Jr. Clk. S C. Feb.ls BRUNSWICK, GEORGIA, THURSDAY MORNING, MAY 24,1838. , PROSPECTUS OF THE SOUTHERN LITERARY MESSENGER. HPHIS 15 a monthly Magazine devoted chief ly to Literature, but occasionally find ing room also for articles that fall within tin scope of Science ; and not professing an en tire disdain of tasteful selections, though its matter lias been, as it will continue to be, in ! tlip main, original. \ Tarty Politics and controversial Theology. jus far as possible,are zealously excluded. They j are sometimes so blended with discussions in j 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 : but whenever that happens, they are in cidental, 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 Notices, occupy their due space in the work : and it is the Ed itor s aim that they should have a threefold tendency—to convey, in a condensed form, such valuable truths or interesting incidents as are embodied in the works reviewed, —to direct the reader’s attention to books that deserve to he 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 their variety and multitude dis tract and overwhelm every undiscriminating student, impartiai. criticism, governed by the views just mentioned, is one of the most inestimable and indispensable of auxiliaries, to him who dors wish to discriminate. Essays, and Ta i.ks, having in view utility or amusement, j>r both — Historical sketc h es—and Remi.vise en i es of events too minute for History, yet elucidating it, aad heighten ing its interest.—may be regarded as forming the staple ol 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 of our coun try. The times appear, for several reasons, to de mand such a work—and not one alone, but many. The public mind is feverish and irri tated still, from recent political strifes :—The soft, assuasive influence of Literature is need ed, to allay that fever, and soothe that irrita tion. Vice and folly are rioting abroad :—They should he driven by indignant rebuke, or lash ed by ridicule, into their fitting haunts. Igno rance lords it over an immense proportion of our people : Every spring should he set in motion, to arouse the enlightened, and to in crease their number ; so that the great enemy of popular government may no longer brooJ, like a portentous cloud, over the destinies of our couutrj-. And to accomplish all these ends, what more powerful agent can he employed, than a periodical, on the plan of the Messenger; il that plan be but carried out in practice ? Tile South peculiarly requires aucU an a gent. In all the Union, south of Washington, there are but two Literary periodicals ! North ward of that city, there are probably at least twenty-five or thirty ! Is this contrast justified by the wealth, the leisure, the native talent, or the actual literary taste, of the Southern peo ple, compared with those of the Nothern r No : for in wealth, talents, and taste, we may justly claim at least ail cijualily with our breth ren ; and a domestic institution exclusively our own, beyond all doubt affords us. if xve choose, twice (he leisure for reading and wri ting, winch they enjoy. It was from deep sense of this local want, that tin- word Southern was engrafted on the name ol 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 tin- North and South hound endearingly togeth er forever, in the silken bands of mutual kind ness and affection. Far from mediating hostil ity to tlie North, lie has already drawn, and lie hopes hereafter to draw, much of his choicest matter thence : and happy indeed will he deem himself, should his pages, by making each re gion know the other better, contribute in auv essential degree to dispel the lowering clouds that now threaten the peace ot’ both, and to brighten and strengthen the sacred ties of fa ternal love. The Southern Litf.rary Messenger has now reached the IMtli 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 usually makes Practice full short of Theory. No subscription will lie received for less than a Volume, and must either begin with the cur rent one—or may commence with Vol. I V r , the first number of which will be issued on tlie Ist January, 1~3':. The price is jfo per Volume. which must be paid in all cases at the time of subscribing. This is particularly adverted t» now, to avoid misapprehension, or future mis understanding—as no order will hereafter be attended to, unless accompanied with the price of subscription. THOMAS W.

THE cheapest and decidedly the most pop ular Family Newspaper in the U States, with a circulation of many thousand subscrib ers The American Weekly Messenger is published every Wednesday, on beautiful white paper, of the largest class, at $2 per annum, or ten subscriptions for jjßlrt: Its contents are adapted to the wants of the Farmer, Mechanic, Tradesman, Agriculturist, Merchant and Manufacturer. This Journal was commenced on the first of January last, and, without any previous effort to herald its success, went into immediate and rapid circulation. Such was the unprecedent ed popularity which attended its projection that, in about six months from the period it was first issued, not less than fifteen thousand names were embraced oil its subscription lists! which have been ever since constantly and rapidly increasing, and now bid fair to super cede in extent mid 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 originml matter as any other periodical of the present day. The diffusion of useful and wholesome information, with a view to the cultivation of a correct knowledge of Polite Literature, is the chief object at which it aims. Arrangements have been entered into, by which the publish- | er will be assisted in the editorial department. ! by the talents of three or four ..gentlemen of J distinguished abilities—and it is intended to introduce several important improvements, which will bespeak additional popularity for its columns. As the character and leading features of this Journal are well known throughout the United Slates, it will he superfluous to enter into a recital ol the same. The season is approach ing, however, when the reading public are ex pected to make their selections for tin- 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 ! A five dollar bill, forwarded by mail, postage paid, will pay for four copies for one year ! 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. A five dollar note will pay one year’s sub scription to tin- Weekly Messenger and also the Gentleman's Magazine, edited by XV. E. Burton, Esq. QJ’ Remittances from Clubs, to be entitled to the full advantages of the liberal terms here offered, must he made in sums of five’s and ten’s of current Bank notes—any lesser a niount. forwarded by mail, will be classed a long with individual subscriptions. A premium of FORTY NOVELS, neatly and appropriately bound, containing the pro ductions of many of the celebrated writers of the present day, will be presented to any Agent forwarding forty subscribers, and the pay in advance, as heretofore stipulated. At the expiration of the term subscribed for and paid by clubs, the paper will invariably be discontinued, unless the advance money’ is for warded previous to that time, and the subscrip tions renewed, in the manner above specified. It will be a great saving to the publisher, and facilitate the early mailing of the paper, if the individual forwarding the sum required fir four, or ten, or more subscribers, when they are located together, will allow the package to be addressed to the Postmaster, or someone a mong themselves, who being made acquainted with the names of the Club, can as readily dis tribute them as if directed separately. All letters must be post paid, or they will not be taken out of tile office. Address CHARLES ALEXANDER, Athenian Buildings,Franklin I'lacc. PhiladtTa. TO PKI.VI'KSES. in YVHITE iVYVM.

MULBERRIES FOR SILK WORMS. 50,000 PLANTS of the Chincst* Mulberry or Moras multicaul is, for sale. Os all the va rieties of Mulberries for silk, this appears most eminently entitled to preference, and since its introduction 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 of a rapid growth, and will thrive • well in almost any situation, and a few years ■ are sufficient to raise considerable fields of them in full vigor, sufficient to support an immense number of silk worms. The raising of silk is as easy as the raising of wheat and much less i laborious. Fora number of years past it lias been a regular and profitable employment of I many ni the farmers of Connecticut.,during the | early part of the summer, and is emphatically a business of the farmer—of the cottage—a j simple labor, in which females and children who do not essentially aid in supporting a fum j ily may turn their services to profit..

Gratified for the encouragement i manifested, desirous of making his little paper j worthy the patronage of an enlightened and generous public, the subscriber lias determined i 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 1 will be afforded greater space for his own lucu brations and those of correspondents, together w ith Advertisements and judicious selections. It may not lie 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 he One Dollar in i advance, or One Dollar and Fifty Cents, at the ! expiration of the year. This alteration, it will j be perceived, is not in proportion to the change i of size in the paper ; the luxes being fio rd, we are willing to work as low as we can, to save ourselves from debt, to please our patrons and ourselves also.
