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 Sketched; the History of
Women-, Harmless Satire; Reviews of New
Works, tyc.; and embellished with superior En
gravings; Fine Wood Cuis; Plates of the
Fashions; and Music.
Price $3, payable in advance.
r gIHE PARLOUR MAGAZINE is now in
0. the jneridian 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 triumph.
Forgeneral appearance, mechanical arrange
ment, and typographical execution, it may just
ly assert its claims to rank among the most
beautiful periodicals in the United Slates.
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 us the trouble of circulating
our claims on the public through the medium of
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
ings upon interesting subjects; and plates of the
newest fashions, plain or colored, as circumstan
ces will permit; besides wood cuts in great va
riety, and apiece of original or well selected
Music, at least twice a month.
finished portraits of all the great
British and American poets,from Chaucer down
wards, are in preparation, and will appear in
the Magazine from time to time, wiih 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 readers attention, as the undertaking is
one of great interest, expense and labor. The
likenesses shall all be taken from portraitsbv
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.

THE KNICKERBOCKER?
OR THS NEW YORK MONTHLY MAGAZINE
rBpH I S Periodical having passed into the
J*L hands of the undersigned, will hereafter be
issued with punctuality on the first of every
month, and in a style of typographical execu
tion, which it is designed shall not be surpassed
by any similar Periodical in this country. The
proprietors will use their endevors to avoid the
examples of their predecessors, in liberal prom
ises and scanty fulfilments. The work is here
after to depend, rather upon the character which
it shall be able to acquire, than upon extraordi
nary- announcements of the prospective excel
lence to which it is to arrive. The Editor will
receive in its subversion the constants assist
ance of his brother Willis Gaylord Clark, of
Philadelphia; and no exertions will be left un
employed to render the work honorable to
American Periodical Literature, and accepta
ble to the public, whose patronage is only- so
far solicited as it shall seem to be deserved.
The original papers—which it is designed
shall be so varied, as to form a combination of the
solid and useful with the entertain ing and agree
able—will be from literary pens of established
reputation, (both athome and abroad,) in dif
ferent cities and portions of the United States
In addition to the original papers, liberal
space will be devoted, under the head of Liter
ary Notices, to brief and candid reviews of new
works, of proper distinction, with such extracts
as may be necessary to add interest, or to
evince the justice of the accompanying criticism
A Monthly Compendium will also be given,
comprising, in a succinct form, all events of
importance which may have occurred during
the month, with such remarks, or illustrative,
comments, as they may- demand. The general
intelligence of the several States—political, sta
tistical, and domestic—arranged under their
separate heads, will be embraced in this depart
ment. Brief Obituary Notices of eminent per
sons who may- have deceased during the month,
will likewise be given.
The Editor’s Table will be devoted to the
familiar discussion of such local or geneal mat
ters, as could not, with propriety, be classed j
under the above named heads.
If an earnest desire to raise up a National
Periodical which shall do honor to American
Literature —if unwearied industry and exertion
on the part of the conductors—the employment
in its pages of much of the best literary talent
of the country —if the beauty of execution, and
early and punctual transmission, can insure its
succe it is confidently believed that the Knick
erbocker Magazine will attain to general favor

TYPE FOUNDRY: ’
E. WHITE & WM. HAGER.
RESPECTFULLY inform the Printers of |
the United States, to whom they have i
long been individually known as Letter Found- ’
ers, that they have now formed a Copartner-1
ship in said Business, and hope from their uni
ted and extensive experience, to be able to give I
full satisfaction to all who may- favor them with ;
their orders.
The introduction of Machinery, in place of
the tedious and unhealthful piocess of casting
ty-pe by hand, a desideratum fell by the Euro
pean and American founders, was by Ameri
can ingenuity, and at a heavy expenditure of
time and money, on the part of our senior part
ner, first successfully accomplished. Exten
sive machine cast letter has fully tested and es
tablished its superiority in every particular,
over that cast by the old process.
The Letter Foundry Business will be carried
on by the parties before named, under the firm
of WHITE, HAGAR & CO.
Their specimen exhibits a complete series
from Diamond to 14 lines Pica; the Book and
hews Ty-pe being in the most modern and light
style.
WHITE, HAGAR & CO. are agents for the
sale of the Smith’s Printing Presses.which they
can furnish to their customers at the Manufac
turer’s prices.
Chases, Cases, Composing Sticks, Ink and
every- article used in the Printing business, kept
for sale, and furnished at short notice. Old
Type taken in exchange for new at 9 cents per
pound.
N. B.—Newspaper proprietors who give the
above three insertions, will be entitled to five
dollars in such articles as thev mav select from
our specimen. E. WHITE.

PROPOSALS.
For Publishing in the Town of Wetiimpka Al
abama, a weekly paper to be entitled the ’
WETUMPKA TIMES.
EBY HE Town ol Wetumka being situated at
J. the head of Steam Boat navigation on the
Coosa river, and being justly estimated as an
important point where thecommerceof an exten
sive, rich productive district of the country must
concentrate; a paper being deemed by the sub
scriber necessary to the people who reside in the
Town, and to those who must trade there, as a
sort of Messenger between the agricultural and
commercial population—he, therefore proposes
to establish a Journal in the Town of Wetump
ka, under the title which heads this prospec
tus.
The object of the Times is not to effect any
party- views w-hatever, and therefore, will not
be the organ ol any- faction, or the tool of any
party but wilibe devoted to the dissemination of
correct and useful information and to the main
tenance of the rights and interests of the peo
ple. Its columns will at all times be open to
men of all parties and all opinions—also to a
frank, free and full discussion of all the politi
cal questions vitally afiecting the interestsand
well being of National the Government and the
cause of liberty against anarchy and misrule,
i A summary view of all important events
happening in any- part of the United states, and
a summary- of ail foreign intelligence whether
civil or political, deemed to be of an important
or interesting character, together with a correct
account of the Market of this and other places
will be sevised by the practical merchant, and
published weekly.
It will bethe endeavor of the publisher to furnish
his patrons with all important news on any and
every subject calculated to benefit the public,

subscriber, having purchased the
-Es_ Southern Agriculturist from its late Edi
tor and Proprietor, Mr. John D. Legare, soli
cits the support of the friends of Agriculture,
and of the interests connected with it, through
out the Southern States. He has published
this work for Mr. Legare from its commence
ment, in the year 1828, and he is thus practical
ly acquainted with the mode in which it should
be conducted. Its publication will be continue 1
on the same terms and in the same manner as
heretofore, with such improvements'as his ex
perience may suggest.
As the subscriber is solicitous to make this
Journal the vehicle for disseminating useful in
formation, not only with regard to established
systems of Husbandry, but also experimental
efforts in Agriculture and Horticulture, he in
vites free mid unrestrained communications
from all persons occupied in these pursuits.—
Let no one imagine that solitary facts' or iso
lated experiments aretoo trivial to be commu
nicated. All systematic knowledge is but the
aggregate of humble particulars; and Science,
in every department, is brought to perfection,
not through the instrumentality- of a single ex
traordinary mind, but by the contributions of
particulars by many individuals, and generally
after the lapse of many years. He is desirous,
therefore, to have as many facts to record as ean
be furnished; andfromthe Planter, who issys
tematic in his experimental labors, an account
of his failures as well as of his successful ef
forts, wilibe acceptable. If the last are worthy
ol being recorded that they maybe imitated, the
first merit to be noted in order to be shunned.
The Subscriber hopes that this appeal to his
fellow-citizens of the South, will nut be in vain.
It would be a reproach to our Planters to suffer
this Periodical to meet the fate of the Southern
Review. Os the lai-titmaybe justly said, that
it was suffered to fall, w hen it was not only- rear
ing for us a well merited fame as a literary
people, but it was also vindicating the Southern
character and Southern habits from the unjust
usparsions which have been so liberally bestow
!ed upon us out of our section of country. The
“ SOUTHERN AGRICULTURIST'’ insome
me asare suppli cs the place of the Southern Re
i view, so far as regards the circumstances last
alluded to. It serves as a Register not only of
methods of Husbandry, but also of facts relating
It? our system es Slavery. The subjects of the
■ discipline, the treatment, the characters of our
, Slaves, are fairly suited to its pages, and con
; stilute topics as interesting and important as any
which can engage either our own attention or
the attention of those abroad, who feel a legit
imate interest in our concerns.
The Subscriber begs leave, in conclusion, to
remark, that if he had not undertaken to con
tinue the publication of this Periodical, it most
probably would have been either removed from
our city, or been suspended. Whether it will
be in his power to continue it, will depend not
only on the pecuniary but the Literary Con
tributions of Southern Planters. He confident
ly now leaves this matter in their hands, feei
ng a full assurance that there is wanting on
he part of our Planters, neither the liberality
nor mental energies necessary- to sustain the
Southern Agriculturist.

FgnHE publication of the “ North Carolina

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
iron, Washington or Rust Press, equal to any
in the State, to which is attached Composition
Rollers and Fixtures. The Types consists of
fonts of Long Primer, 350 lbs.; Brevier 160 lbs.;
Pica, 60 lbs.; Double Small Pica, 50 lbs.; togeth
er with a complete assortment of job type, cuts,
rules, &c. &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
of job work. «
It is proposed to lease it for a term of one or
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 be 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

PROSPECTUS
OF A MONTHLY MAGAZINE TO BE ENTITLED
THE SOUTHERN LITERARY JOURNAL.
To be published la Charleston, S. C«
WHILE numerous Literary Periodicals
are issued from the American Press
which are liberally patronized, it has been it
subject of general regret, that since the discon
tinuance of that able work, the Southern Re
view, there has been no Magazine established
in South Carolina affording a suitable medium
through which the opinions of our best writers
might be brought to bear directly and usefully
upon the public mind. It is with a view to
meet this demand that the publication of this
Journal is proposed, and that the general and
suustantial support of the citizens of the South
is respectfully solicited.
.The proposed Magazine will consist of Ori
ginal Communications on Literary and
title Subjects; of Popular Tales suggested by
historical and local associations; of Poetry’
and Political Intelligence. Its columns are in
tended to afford a vehicle for the free but tem
pci ate discussion of all questions, which from
their importance, interest or attraction are de
serving of the attention of an educated com
munity. If it shall become, what its name im
ports, a Journal of strictly Southern Literature
—it it shall serve to place upon record a true
account of the opinions, feelings, habits and
general tone of thinking of an enthusiastic and
high-minded people—if, under the enlivening
inspiration of the Genius Loci, and with the ap
proving smiles of the generous and the fair, and
the concurrence and effective aid of the learned
and talented men among us, it shall contribute,
in any small degree, to secure for the South
that elevated Literary position to which it is
entitled, and which it is capable of maintain
ing, its design will then be fully accomplished.
The work will be conducted by the Subscri
ber, assisted by several Literary Gentlemen
who have pledged themselves to contribute con
stantly and liberally to its columns, who are in
terested in its success, and who think the pres
ent a favorable juncture for the commencement
of such an enterprize. It will be printed in an
octavo form, on fine paper, in monthly numbers
of fifty-six pages each, and will be put to press
as soon as a sufficient number of subscribers
can be obtained to authorize its publication.
The Journal will be furnished to subscribers at
Five Dollars per annum, payable at the expira
tion of six months from tile date of the first
number.

20 DOLLARS REWARD.
ON Sunday 24th May, was turned from my
pasture a sorrel mare, and black horse.
The sorrel mare is 8 years old, and has a
small blaze in her face, and few white,
hairs on her rump. The black Horse, is low
and well sett, about 7 years old, both nags in
good order, and looked to have been stolen.
These two houses was seen topass through Har
risburg, and the same day- were seen to pass the
residence of Gen. Thomas Glascock, 4 miles be
low the citr, on the Savannah road. It is sup
posed they- are making their way to the planta
tion of Dr. Golphin of South Carolina, who
was once the owner of the small black Horse,
and after he sold him to M r. Chavers, he got out
and crossed the River and went back again. I
am under the impression the mare w ould not
cross the River with him, a! tho following him
in that direction to the River. The above re
ward will bepaid to any one, who will deliver,
the said two horses to me, and any information
wiih regard to them, will be thankfully received
