PHILADELPHIA SATURDAY COURIER THE vast patronage which has been awar ded the Courier is the best evidence of its approval. It lias the largest subscription list in this country. It is the largest and chea pest Family Newspaper ever issued in the U nited States, containing articles in Literature Science and the Arts ; Internal Improvement, Agriculture, in short every variety of topics usually introduced into a public Journal. Giv ing full accounts of sales, markets and news of the latest dates. Without interfering with the usual variety, the Courier has presented ten .volumes 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 popular current literature, amounting each year to six times the price paid for subscription—in addi tion to the immense quantity ol other matters which appear in its 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 we shall draw from the pens of such writers as Disraeli, Miss Mitford, Capt. Maryatt, Leitch Ritchie, Miss Landon, J. R. Buckstone, 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 arrangements will supply us at as early a mo- ! 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- i tinguished writers of our country, from whose j pens ORIGINAL TALES. POEMS, SONGS, I 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 be 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 be termed, THE LIONS OF PHIL ADELPHIA. Where it is expedient, we ac | company the engravings with such descriptions of size and tacts of history, as may be of inter est. The Courier is published at the low price of | Two Dollars. For this small 3um 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. [pj*As a 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. THE 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 ti l 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 able 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 oi society, will ensure it eminent success. One thousand subscribers will sustain the publication. We have now aboutsix 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. These 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 of 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 Slate, 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. Terms. —The Southern Magazine will be publishcdin the City of Mobile, on the first of every month: the first number on the Ist of January, 1838.

J. BURNETT, Jr. Clk. S C. Feb. 15 BRUNSWICK, GEORGIA, THURSDAY MORNING, MAY 31,1838. , PROSPECTUS OF THE j SOUTHERN LITERARY MESSENGER. THIS is a monthly Magazine devoted chief ly to Literature, but occasionally find ! ing room also for articles that fall within the | scope of Science ; and not professing an cn j tire disdain of tasteful selections , though its matter has been.as it will continue to be, in I the main, original. ! Partly 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 I of the more valuable matter to which they ad | here : but whenever that happens, they are in cidental, only; not primary. They are dross, i tolerated only because* It cannot well be ser ved from the sterling ore wherewith it is iucor- J porated. I Reviews, and Critical Notices, occupy their due space in the work : and it is the Ed j 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 be read.—and to warn him against wasting time and money upon that large number, which mer it only to he burned. In this age of publica tions that by their variety and 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 in?it to discriminate. Essays, and Tales, having in view utility [or amusement, or both— Historical skktcii j es— and Reminiscent es of events too minute [ for History, yet elucidating it, aad heighten ing its interest, —inay be 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 of our coun try. J 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 ed, to allay that fever, and soothe that irrita tion. \ ice and folly are rioting abroad :—They should bo 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 be set in motion, to arouse the enlightened, and to in crease their number ; so that the great enemy. |of popular government may no longer brood, .like a portentous cloud, over the destinies of our country. And to accomplish all these ends, what more powerful agent can be employed, than a periodical, on the plan of the Messenger; if that plan be but carried out in practice ? The South peculiarly requires such an a gent. In all the Union, soutli 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 t No : for in wealth, talents, and tasfe, we may justly claim at least an equality with our breth ren ; and a domestic institution exclusively our own, beyond all doubt affords us, if we choose, twice the leisure for reading and wri ting, w hicli they enjoy. it was from deep sense of this local want, that the word Southern was engrafted on tlie name of this periodical : and not with any de sign to nourish local prejudices, or to advocate supposed local infeiests. Far from any such thought, it is the Editor's fervent wish, to see the North and South bound endearingly togeth er forever, in the silken bands of mutual kind- j ness and affection. Far from mediating hostil- j ity to the North, he has already drawn, and he i hopes hereafter to draw, much of his choicest i matter thence : and happy indeed will he deem i himself, should his pages, by making each re- ! gion know the other better, contribute in any ( essential degree to dispel the lowering clouds \ that now threaten the peace of both, and to ! brighten and strengthen the sacred ties of 1a- i ternal love. The Southern Literary Messenger has: now reached the l{Hh No. of its third volume. ( flow far it has acted out the ideas here uttered, i is not for the Editor to say. He believes, how- i ever, that it falls not further short of them,! than human weakness usually makes Praitice 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 Vol. IV, tlie first number of which will be issued on the Ist January, 1638.—The price is $5 per Volume, which must he paid in all cases at the time of subscribing. This is particularly adverted to j now, to avoid misapprehension, or future mis- \ understanding—as no order will hereafter be j attended to, unless accompained with the price i of subscription.

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 $lO. 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. Sucli 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 namc9 were embraced on its subscription lists! which have been ever since constantly and rapidly increasing, and now bid fair to super cede in extent and stability every other pub lication which has existed in the literary world. It is generally conceded that the contents of the Messenger embraces as much origimal 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- J er will be assisted in the editorial department < by the talents of three . or four gentlemen of 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 States, it will be superfluous to enter into a recital of 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 ! A five dollar bill, forwarded by mail, postage paid, will pa}' 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 live dollar note will pay one year’s sub scription to the Weekly Messenger and also the Gentleman's Magazine, edited by W. E. Burton, Esq. [fj'Remittances from Clubs, to be entitled to tin’ full advantages of the liberal terms here offered, must be made in sums of five sand ten’s of current Bank notes—any lesser a mount, forwarded by mail, will be classed a long with individual subscriptions. A premium of FORTY NOVELS, neatly am! appropriately bound, containing the pro dui tions 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, it the individual forwarding the sum required lor four, or ten, or more subscribers, when they are located together, will allow the package to be addressed to tire 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 innst be post paid, or they will not be taken out of the office. Address CHARLES ALEXANDER, Athenian Buildings. Franklin Place, Philadel'a. TO PRINTERS. Ijl WHITE &. WM.

To I'tlcrchants, Agricultursts, AND GARDENERS. GR GARRETSON, has removed his • wholesale and retail Agricultural and Garden Seed Whorehouse, to Flushing, L. 1., New York, where he intends dealing exten , sively in the above business, and will be at all I times enabled to furnish dealers and others with every article in his line of business. And as the greater part of his stock of Seeds is raised under his personal attention or direction, or where it is necessary to import from Europe, they are procured from the most rospectable Seed establishments there, and their qualities being tested to his own satisfaction, their accu racy and vitality are expressly warranted. The vending of Seeds is a business deserv ing much greater attention from the mercan tile community than is at present bestowed up on it. There is scarcely a farmer or planter who would not purchase an assortment of su perior Garden Seeds if they could procure them easily. And as they yield* a handsome profit, some explanations maybe requisite in regard to making sales, &c. They are usually supplied by the pound or bushel, and will atFord a profit ol 100 per cent, or more, at the New York re tail prices. For convenience they can be neat ly 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 be supplied at from $1 to $25 —the latter being sufficient to crop a garden of one acre. Or they can he put into 0 1-4 and 12 1-2 cent papers, neatly labelled, and assort ed suitable for a retail dealer, each of which by the quantity will be charged so as to allow a profit of 60 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 feel confident they will be served with none but ar ticles of the very best quality. The Proprietor lias further to state, that he is enabled to furnish all kinds of Books on Ag riculture, Horticulture, Floriculture, Aboricul ture, Rural Economy, &c. &c. Also, Agri cultural Implements ofHusbandry and Garden Tools of every description. Also, Fruit and Ornamental Trees and Herbaceous Flowering Plants, Roses and Green House Plants of a very great variety ; all of which can be packed so as to be transported to any part of the United j States, West Indies or elsewhere. Great at- i tention has been paid to obtaining both from foreign countries and at home, the finest agri cultural seeds, nil of which can be furnished in largb quantities, and where the purchase is made lor cash a discount will be allowed.

MULBERRIES FOR SILK WORMS. 60,000 PLANTS of the Clsjpesd Mulberry or Moms multicaulis, for sale. Qf 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 laborious. For a number of years past it has been a regular and profitable employment of many of the farmers of Connecticut, 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 for a trifle can procure a pamphlet which will give them the necessary information of reeling, dtc. The plants can be packed so as to be transported to any part of the Uniou and will be furnished in quantities to suit purchasers, and at very mod erate rates. Nov. 16 PROSPECTUS OF The Experiment. 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. “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 of an enlightened and generous public, the subscriber has 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 not be 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 atso cents per square for the first insertion, and 25 cents pci square for each subsequent insertion. QjTThose 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.

THIS will be, both a Grammar and Diction ary of Botany ; —presenting, first, Vegeta ble Physiology, and. second, a minute ana ac curate description of every plant yet discovered in Georgia, together with its medicinal or nox ious properties—its English name—its emblem, ; language. &o. 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 we I have, are nothing more than a few disconnected facts in Physiology, or a dry desc iption of a few leaves, roots, flowers, &c. all tending to , excite disgust rather than taste. Students should, as soon as possible, be inducted into file' practical part of the science—K 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. This work will teach pupils, first, the names of the classes and orders in the Linnean system, the method of analysing flowers, and, proceed nezt,*to the examining, collecting and arranging of them into an herbarium. A love for the science be ing thus implanted, it must and trilL increase, and urge them oil to furthei 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 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 Wiltl information concerning the names, locality and habits of plantain 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, aa early aa the let 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.

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 we can go still further in the matter of reduction, and we feel, that therp is still verge enough for us to aim at offering to an increasing literary appetite, that mental food which it crax’es.
