PROSPECTUS OF THE HERALD, A Commercial and Literary Journal, to be pub lished at Columbia, South-Carolina, on the first of January, 1829, or sooner if practicable—by ALFRED BYNUM fy DOYLE E. SWEENY IN offering proposals for the above work, wo present to a liberal and enlightened public, a Free and Independent Paper, combining the various topics of information useful to the Farm | er, the Merchant and Mechanic —and assuming , to itself that character which should exclusively | bsL>ng to thcffi*ress in a free country ; —that of ! being a plain unvarnished index of Public Opi nion, not an arbitrary and self-constituted dictator to the multitude. That every paper is public property, fostered by the favor of the People, for the convenience of exchanging their sentiments upon the subjects of public policy, is the principle by whicli I'iie Her ald shall be governed; and every communication 1 which may be made to it, that does not. actually infringe upon the Laws of the Land, shall find a reo and open vent to the public ear. Our sole object is to establish a paper belonging to no Party, —advocating no particular system of politics framed and adopted by any cabal, for par ty purposes, —sacrifising the public-weal to Party strife ; but to present to the enquiring mind a pure sheet, which shall faithfully represent the views of each side upon every subject of public import ! Os the utter necessity of a free and untram melled Press, to advance the interests of free in stitutions, and to preserve and sanctify the seeds of virtue and morality which give promise of lu ture increase and prosperity to our country — every liberal and dispassionate tnind, must be fully convinced. It has been the subject of general reprehension, that too many papers in this country have depart ed from this correct and onward course—and that still more have sprung with mushroom precocity from the hotbed of Party Spirit. To counteract the baneful inlhicnce that such papers inevitably have, upon the morals of the community ; —to send ail public transactions, in stantly before a jury of the whole country, with out any Sophist to darken them, or any special pleader to bend them to a side—and to strengthen and uphold, as far as in us lies, the cause of Virtue, Liberty and Truth will be the devoted aim of til© proprietors of The Herald. It is well known that a paper established upon the above liberal principles, is demanded by the intelligence and independence of the people of of this place—and we pledge ourselves, that at the same time we exercise the most courteous demeanour to all parties; that The Herald shall be strictly conformed to the plan above in-14 out. Addicted to the interests or prejudices of no set of men, untrammelled, fearless and free, it will give expression to the public voice , —intimidated by no man’s hatred a id lured by no man’s favor. In the particular arrangement of its contents, greater attention to system will be observed than is usually found in weekly papers—its fund of Miscellaneous information shall be replete with variety, and the quality of such articles shall be more regarded than the quantity. It will also pirtake of the nature of a Literary Review, and the scholar whose habits and predi lections are alien to the heated and imbittered discussions of politics, will meet with some ver dant spots on which the eye of science and of taste may dwell with more grateful feelings. The cause of puro Morality will find in The Herald an unpretending 1 , loyal advocate, and while the Editor avoids all approximation to the bigotry of sectional controversies and convention al expositions of right and wrong, he will strictly enforce the grand and fundamental principles up on which the Religion, the Laws, and all the in stitutions of Man are built. Terms :—The Herald will be published weekly, on an Imperial sheet, at $3 in advance, or at the end of the year, which will be strictly adhe red to.
