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 of
Women; Harmless Satire; Reviews of Neto
Works, d'C.; and emheltished with superior En
gravings; Fine Wood Cuts; Flutes of the
Fashions; and. Music.
P.’ice $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
pro-spects without a horizon,continue tocheer it
on its way, we may reasonably anticipate for it
a long day of triumph.
For general appearance, mechanical arrange
ment, and typographical execution, it may 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 I
them, would save us the trouble of circulating |
our claims on the public through the medium ot I
a prospectus.
For selections, the literary gardens of all A- |
merica and half Europe are open to us; so that 1
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 1
Paris, in respect of the various changes, which i
shall be inserted as soon as received.
The PARLOUR MAGAZINE shall be oc- i
c tsionally embellished with beautiful Engrav
ingsnpon interesting subjects; and plates of the .
newest fashions, plain or colored, ascircttmstan- '
ces will permit; besides wood cuts in great va- ’
liety,and apiece of original or well selected !
Music, at least twice a month.
O’ Highly 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, with a general
critique on the author’s works, annexed to each;
'he head and review of Shakespeare will be
forthcoming in February—Bryant’s will fol
low. To this paragraph we would especially
cal) the readers attention, as the undertaking is
one of great interest, expense and labor. The
likenesses shall all be taken from portraits by
the best masters.
The PARLOUR MAGAZINE is printed on
super-royal paper, in quarto form, and stitched I
in a handsome cover. JNO. M. MOORE,
Office, G7 Liberty-street, New-York.

be devoted to Literature, .Scienceand the Mar
vellous. To contain original and select Tales,
Poetry, Anecdotes, Biographical and Historical
Sketches, Notices of all new inventions in the
arts, and a relation of all that is wonderful.rare,
and curious, in the history of the day, a list of
deaths, marriages, murders, robberies, arsons
shocking accidents by Hood and field, hair
breadth escapes, all important criminal trials
in full, which will be carefully culled from the
newspapers ot the old and new world. It will
invariably exclude all political, religious, or pro
fessional discussions, and stick to useful and en
tertaining matter only.
The Alchymist will be published weekly in a
quarto form, on a super royal sheet, at Colum
bus Geo., by Charles F. Sherburne, at Three
Dollars per year, one half in advance, the oth
er at the end of six months.

~"THE "KNICKER'BbckER.
OR THE NEW YORK MONTHLY MAGAZINE
TH I S Periodical having passed into the
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 todepend, rather upon thecharacter 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 Lite r ature, 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 entertaining 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
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
sttcce it is confidently believed thatthc Knick-
erbocker Magazine will attain to general favor

TYPE FOUNDRY:
E. WHITE & WM. HAGER.
KESPECTFULLY inform the Printers of
the United States, to whom thev have?
longbeen individually known as Letter Found
ers, that they have now formed a Copartner-'
ship in said Business, and hope from their uni-,
ted and extensive experience, to be able to give ?
full satisfaction to all who may favor them with '
their orders.
The introduction of Machinery, in place ot
the tedious and unhealthful process of casting ‘
type by hand, a desideratum felt by the Euro'
pean and American founders, was’ by Ameri- i
can ingenuity,and at a heavy expenditure of
time and money, on the part of our senior part-1
ner, first successfully accomplished. Exten-I
sive machine cast letter has fully tested and es- !
tablished its superiority in every particular, i
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 j
from Diamond to 14 lines Pica; the Book and ‘
News Type being in the most modern and light
style.
WHITE, HAGAR &.CO. are agents for the
sale ot the Smith’s Printing Presses,which they
can turnish 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 they tnav select from
our specimen. E. WHITE.
N w-York, Auguri 7. RM. HAGAR.
For Publishing in the Town of Wetumpka, Al ’
abama, a weekly paper to be entitled the :
WETUxMPKA times.
r BUIE Town ot Wetumka being situated at i
JL the head ot Steam Boat navigation on the I
Coosa river, and being justly estimated as an
important point where thecomrnereeof 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

_ PUBLIC,
S!l ’ )sCr '^ el ’ iav^n o purchased the
Southern Agriculturist from its late Edi
tor and Proprietor, Mr. John D. Legare, soli
i cits the support of the friends of Agriculture,
j and ot the interests connected with it, through
i out the Southern States. He has published
! this work for Mr. Legare from its commence
l ment, in the year 182$, and heisthus practical
! ly acquainted with the mode in which it should
be conducted. Its publication will be continue 1
on thesrt/ne terms ami 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 tree nnd unrestrained communications
from all persons occupied in these pursuits.—
Let no one imagine that solitary facts or iso
lated experiments are too trivial to be commu
nicated. All systematic knowledge is but the
aggregate ofhnmble 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; and from the Planter, who is sys
tematic in his experimental labors, an account
of his failures as well as of his successful es- j
torts, will be acceptable. If the last are worthy
ol being recorded that they may be imitated, the
first merit to be noted in order to be shunned.
The Subscriber hopes that this appeal to his
lellow-cilizens of the South, will not be in vain.
| It would be a feproach to our to suffer j
’ this Periodical to meet the fa'eof the Southern 1
i Heview. Os the last it may be justly said, that?
j it was suffered to fall, when it was not onlyrear- i
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
aspersions which have been so liberally bestow
ed upon us out of our section of country. The
1 NO UTHEHN A GRICUL TUHIS T' in some
measure supplies the place of the Southern Re
vicw, solar as regards the circumstances last
alluded to. It serves as a Register not only of
methods of Husbandry, but alsoof facts relating
our system es Slavery. The subjects of the
discipline, the treatment, the characters of our
Slaves, are fairly suited to its pages, and con
stitute topics as interesting and importantas any
which can engage either our own attention or I
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 i
our citv,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. Pie 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
So ut he rn Ag riculturist.

TO PiUNl'Eßs'.’
THE publication of the “ North Qarolina
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 engagethe 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 Prim-r, 350 lbs.; Brevier IGO lbs.;
Pica, GO 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, ail
nearly new, and in good condition.
The Spectator has enjoyed a libera] 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 er
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-1
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
Or a monthly magazine to be entitled
THE SOUTHERN LITERARY JOURNAL
To be published iu Charleston, 8. c.
WHILE numerous Literary Periodicals
are issued from the American Press
which are liberally patronized, it has been a
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 useiully
I upon the public mind. It is with a view to
I meet this demand that the publication ot this
otu nal is proposed, and that the general and
substantia 1 support of the citizens of the South
is respectfully solicited.
< f i,lir PrUpUSed Ma gazine will consist of Ori
? g L . imunicat,ons on Literary and Scien
tific Subjects; ol Popular Tales suggested bv
hrstortcal and local associations; of Poetry
and Political Intelligence. Its columns are in
tended to afford a vehicle for the free but tem
perate 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
—if 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 enlitenifig
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,
i in any small degree, to seeure for the South
I that elevated Literary position to which it
, entitled, and which it is capable of maintain-’
in “ es ’g n then be fully accomplished.
■ Ihe work will be conducted by the Subseti-
i ber, assisted by several Literary Gentlemen
• who have pledged themselves to contribute con-
I stantly and liberally to its columns, who are in
terested tn its success, and who think the pres
ent a la\< t able juncture for the commencement
I ol such an enterprize. It will be printed in an
octavo form, on tine paper, in monthly numbers
of fifty-six pages each, and will be put to press
I 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 the date of the first
number.

ON Sunc'ay 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 jsome 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 horses was seen topass through Har
risburg, and the same day were seen to pass lire
residence of Gen. Thomas Glascock, 4 miles be
low the city, oit the Savannah road. It is sup
; posed they are making their way to the planta
tion ot Dr. Golphin of South Carolina, who
, was once the owner of the small black Horse,
- and after he sold hirn to Mr. Chavers, he got out
and crossed the River and went back again. I
am under the impression the mare would not
cross the River with him, altho following him
in that direction to the River. The ab«ve re
ward will be paid to any one, who will deliver,
the said two horses to me, and any information
wiih regard to them, will be thankfully received
