WILLIAM POE. Sec. & Treas. I March 4 AUGUSTA, GEO., MONDAY, MAY 11, 1835. PROSPECTUS. OF THE GREENVILLE MOUNTAINEER. THE Subscriber, in assuming the Editorial duties of the Mduntdineer, deems it due I to its present Suhsbribets, as well as those who | may in future become s'tich, to issue a Prospec tus, expressive ot the principles which he de signs to advocate. The Mountaineer has been long and favorably known throughout the Stare as the firm and undeviatitig advocate of repub lican principles—now professed and acted upon by the Union Party. Its present Editor will advocate and maintain to the best of his abilities, those principles—firmly believing them to be absolutely necessary to our •‘preservation as a Nation, and to the perpetuation of our hap piness as a people.” It is not necessary to de fine what those principles are—lt is believed tnat they are generally known and understood. The maintenance of a weekly paper in the country is a difficult and a laborious task. It will not be deemed exaggeration by those who are initiated, to say, that not more than two thirds of the money due to such a paper can be col lected—-and it takes time to collect even that. The proprietor—Mr. Wells—is thankful for the patronage already extended to him. He feels gratified that the names of the most talent ed and influential men of our Party can be seen on his subscription list. But, as it is the only Union press in this large and populous section of country, it is desirable that It should have an increased circulation. Wherever the Moun taineer has been, it has invariably had influ ence. And it is earnestly requested of the friends of the Union-, in Spartanburg, Pickens, Laurens, and particularly in Abbeville, to ex ert themselves in aiding'the circulation of the Truth. The Proprietor, if assisted in his generous de sign, will obtain a new Press, an entirely new fount oftypc, and issue the Mountaineer on an enlarged sheet of the finest paper. This cannot be done, however, without the renewed exer tions of the friends of our cause, in the differ ent sections of the State, in his behalf. The Mountaineer will be devoted to Political and Miscellaneous matters, embracing the use ful, entertaining and instructive. The proceed ings of Congress will be published invariably— And the Editor will use ever}' exertion in his powerto render the paper worthy of lhe patron age of the Union Public. W. L. YANCEY. TERMS-—The Monntaineer will be publish ed once a week, on a super-royal sheet and handsome type, at Three Dollars per annum in advance, or three dollars and fifty cents at the expiration of six months,—though payment in advance would be ’greatly preferred. Letters on business must be addressed to O. H. WELLS, Publisher and Proprietor Greenville, S. S., Dec. 1834. TO PRINTERS. “ THE publication of the “ North Carolina Spectator and Western Advertiser,” and the Printing business connected with it, for some time under the Editorial management of Mr. Roswell Elmer, Jr. being about to be relin quished by him, for some other pursuit, it be comes necessary to engage the services of anoth er competent individual, to take charge of the concern. The Press is an excellent supep-royal, cast irou, Washington or Rust Press, hqual to any in the State, to which is attached Composition Rollers and Fixtures. The Types consists of fonts of Long Prim»r, 350 lbs.; Brevier 160 Ibs:- Pica, 60 lbs.; Double Small Pica, 50 lbs- togeth er with a complete assortment of job type, cuts, rules, &e. &c., carefully selected and suited to the business of a country Printing Office, all nearly new, and in good condition. The Spectator has enjoyed a liberal patron age, and has now quite a respectable list of sub scribers, and an extensive and profitable circle I of job work. It is proposed to lease it for a tern! of one or I more years. To one who combines practically a knowledge for printing, with capacity for the Editorial management of the concern, this would doubtless be a profitable situation. It may not he amiss to say, that the political cour. e and principles hitherto supported by the “Spectator,” have been those of the “ Jefferso nian School,” and it is believed a majority of this community entertaining the same princi ples, would be more likely to patronize a con tinuance than a departure from them. Early application is desirable to G. WALTON, EDM. BRYAN, T. F. BIRCHETT, THOS. DEWS, Jun. J. M. D. CARSON. Rutherfordton, N. C. Feb. 13, 1835. March 13 31 PROSPECTUS OF THE THIRD VOLUME OF THE PARLOUR MAGAZINE. A weekly paper, devoted to Literature, and the Fine Arts; the Drama; the Fashions; Tales; Essays; Biographical Sketches; the History oj Women; Harmless Satire; Reviews of New Works, <f-c.; and embellished with superior En gravings; Fine Wood Cuts; Plates of the Fashions; and Music. Price $3, payable in advance. THE PARLOUR MAGAZINE is now in the meridian of its popularity, and as in spiring hopes Without a shadow, and cloudless prospects without a horizon, continue to cheer it on its way, we may reasonably anticipate for it a long day of triumphi Forgeneral appearance, mechanical arrange ment, and typographical execution, it liidy just ly assert its claims to rank among the most beautiful periodicals in the United States. The Literary department is contributed toby many of the ablest writers in the country—men whose names; if they gave us permission to use them, would save tjs the trouble of circulating our claims on the public through the medium oi a prospectus. For selections; the literary gardens of all A merica and half Europe are' open to us; so that if we fail in this particular, the defect must be only attributed to our own want of taste. The “Fashions” shall meet with all due at tention; We have made arrangements to ob tain the earliest intelligence from London and Paris, in respect of the various changes, which shall be inserted as soon as received. The PARLOUR MAGAZINE shall be oc casionally embellished with beautiful Engrav ingsupon interesting subjects; and plates of the newest fashions, plainer colored, as circumstan ces will permit; besides wood cuts in great va riety, and apiece of original er well selected Music, at least twice a month. Kj* Highly finished portraits of all the great British and American poets,froYn Chaucer do wn wards, are in preparation, and will appear in the Magazine from time to time, with a general critique on the author’s works, annexed to each the head and review of Shakespeare will be forthcoming in February—Bryant’s will fol low. To this paragraph we would especially call the readersattention, as the undertaking is one of great interest, expense and labor. The likenesses shall all be taken from portraits bv the best masters. The PARLOUR MAGAZINE is printed on super-royal paper, in quarto form, and stitched in a handsome cover. JNO. M. MOORE, Office, 67 Liberty-street, New-York. ’ BYE-LAWS OF THE railroad company. I.

BARTLETT. low state of both the practice and profits of Agriculture in the Southern States, is admitted and deplored by all, yet adequate remedies and relief have not been proposed, and are scarcely hoped for by even the most sangfiine Ag riculturalists. Notwithstanding the great improvements in practice, and the exam ples of successful farming that rrirtny in- j dividuals have exhibited, it is still true,! that our general average productsand profits have been long declining—oiir lands are becoming impoverished, and 1 their prices sinking in value. Yet these ’ results have been produced throughout a region possessing remarkable natural advantagesand facilities for agricultural improvement and profit, and which pro mises the richest rewards for the invest ment and judicious employment of farfft ing capital. Can we make no general and successful effort to improve the con dition of agriculture and our country? Or, shall we expect no change, unless to a worse than our present state? Thecause of the depression bf agri-1 culture in the South are many—political i and moral, as well as physical—all of which deserve thorough investigation, but which it would be out of place here to enumerate. It is enongh to state that every existing cause of depression is mul tiplied in power and effect, by the want: of means for communication and concert ; among the members of the agricultural interest. It is the object bf the Editor; if suffi ciently aided in the attempt, to endeavor irl Some measures to supply this deficien cy. by establishing an Agriciilttithl Pub lication suited to obr situation and wants, and which may serve, if properly eiiu ployed, to exhibit to every fanlier; What ever may be valuable in the practice bf every ether in the Southeth States. The Editor is awate of the peculiar circumstances of the Editorial depart ment of an Agricultural Journal—and he is also sensible that the habits bf a practical cultivator are even opposed to the acquisitions of some of the qualifica tions requisite for such an undertaking-. No individual however well qualified for his task; can effect -much by his own unaided efforts; yet with the assistance from others, which the Editor hopes to ; obtain, he believes that the Southern J Planted will Serve as an efficient support ' to the agi'icbhtiral improvement and geh-! eral interests of the south. For the pro-' motion of these objects through this me dium, the co-operation of some among the most able to render service, has been ah ready promised; and every means will be used to invite the aid of all Who are in terested in the success of the proposed plan. If our farmers can be induced to consider this paper as simply a convenient organ through which to exchange infor mation—by means of which any inquiry mav be made, and speedily answered— and if such interchange of opinions and! experience can be made as freely, and in , the same plain manner that the Saffie pet-1 sons might converse if brought together I —then the most important and beneficial results of such a publication will be Cer tain and immediately obtained. The most enlightened farther is necessarily often ignorant of important facts, in re gard to which be might be instructed by others of very inferior attainments or ex pcrience; and there is scarcely a single reflecting cultivator who has not learned some fact that is not generally known and the communication of which would be Valuable to the agricultural communi ty. If all such mites of information could be drawn together and preserved, they alone would add incalculably to the existing stockof our agriculturarknowl dge. The Editor has no personal claim for aid to the proposed publication, nor does he ask it, except on the ground, of its tendency to advance the individual Or general interest of its patrons. Should such considerations induce the offer of sufficient patronage to insure the useful ness and permanency of the publication, arrangements will be made for its contin uance; but the work will not be contin ued, unless in such form and manner as will not be unworthy the coadjutors of the Editor, and likely to be a full remu neration for the patronage it may obtain. The Southern Planter will embrace, and be Itmited to the following subjects: 1. Original communications of experi ments, observations and opinions on agri culture, gardening, and domestic econo my. 2. Selections from the beat periodical publications on agriculture, Europeon and American, and from such other agri’ cultural works as have not been publish ed in this country, or are not generally accessible. 1 3. Reviews or notices of agricultural works. 4. The discussion of such objects of political economy as are connectted with the preservation and support of the interest of agriculture. 5 Chemistry as connected with agri culture—and with the same limitation, Botany, Mineralogy, Geology and Natu ral History. 6. Reports of the topography, soils, minerals, peculiar manners, and actual* state of agriculture of every countrv and 1 district in the Southern States from Which i such information can be obtained, j 7. The consideration of public improve j ment by roads, railways and canals. I 8. Discoveries in science, or Ifrts, | and occurrences of other events tliat are considered likely to effect the interest of agriculture. TERMS: Tht Southern Planter is published every other week, each number consists of eight 4to pages. Price $2 50 a year —or S 2 if paid in advance. Payments may be made to the Editor through the i mail at his risk. Any person who shall hereafter pro ' cure four new subscribers, and transmit their first years subscription,shall receive I a fifth copy of the current year, Without ! additional charge.
