PROSPECTUS.
OF THE
GREENVILLE MOUNTAINEER.
THE Subscriber, in assuming the Editorial
duties of the Mountaineer, deems it due
lo its present Subscribers, as well as those who
may in futdre become such, 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 State
as the firm and undeviating advocate of repub
lican principles—now professed and acted upon
by the Union Party. Its prdsbht 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
that they Are generally kndWn 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 initialed, to say, that not more than fico 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—isthankful for
the patronise rilfeady extended to him. He
feels gratified that the names of the most talent
ed and influential men of our Party edn 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 itshould 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 irt Abbeville, to ex
ert themselves in aiding the circulation of the
Truth.
The Proprietor, if assisted inhis generousde
sign, will obtain a new Press, an entirely new
fount of type, 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 every exertion in his
power’to render the paper worthy of the 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

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
1 hoped for by even the most sanguine Ag
riculturalists. Notwithstanding the great
improvements in practice, and the exam- |
pies of successful farming that many in
dividuals have exhibited, it is still true,
that Our general average productsand
profits have been long declining—our
lands are becoming ilOpovefished, and
their prices sinking in value. Yet these
results have been produced throughout a
region possessing remarkable natural
I advantages ahd facilities sot agritbitbral
improvement and profit, and which pro
mises the richest rewards for the invest
ment rind judicious employrtient of farm
ing capital. Can we make no general
and Successful effort to improve tnO Con
dition of agriculture and our Country?
Or, shall we expect no change, unless to ]
a worse than our present state?
The cause of the depression of agri
culture in the South are many—political '
andmofal, as well as of
which deserve thorough investigation,
but which it would be out of place here
to enumerate. It is enough to state that
every existing cause of depression is mul-■'
tiplied in power and effect, by the want j
of means for.commuoication and concert I
among the members of the agricultural
interest.
It is the object of the Editor, if suffi
ciently aided in the attempt, to endeavor
in some measures to supply this deficien
cy. by establishing an Agricultural Pub
lication suited to our situation and Wants,
and which may serve, if properly em
ployed, to exhibit to every farmer, what
ever may be valuable in the practice of
every other in the Southern States.
The Editor is aware of the peculiar!
circumstances of the Editorial depart
ment of an Agricultural JoUffial—and he
is also sensible that the habits of a
practical cultivator are even opposed to
the acquisitions of some of the qualifica- i
tions requisite for such an undertaking.
No inclividurti 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
Planter will serve as an efficient support
to the agricultural improvement and gen
eral interests of the south, for the pro
motion of these objects through this me-
I dium, the co-operation of some among the
most able to render service, has been al- !
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 catt be induced to
consider this paper as simply a convenient
organ through which to exchange infor
mation—by means of which any inquiry
i may be made, and speedily answered—
j and if such interchange of opinions and
j experience can be made as freely, and in
j the same plain manner that the same per
: sons might converse if brought together
—then the most important and beneficial
results of such a publication will be cer
j tain and immediately obtained. The
! most enlightened farmer is necessarily
i often ignorant of important facts, in re-
I gard lo which he might be in&fructed by
: others of very inferior attainments or ex
i perience: 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 viites of information
could be drawn together and preserved,
they alone would add incalculably to the
existing stockof our agricultural knewl
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-1
1 ness and permanency of the publication, j
arrangements will be made for its contin
uance; but the work will not be contin-,
ued, unless in such form and manner as ’
I 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, 1
and be limited to the following subjects:
1. Original communications of experi-l
> ments, observations and opinions on agri-
! culture, gardening, and domestic econo
my.
2. Selections from the best 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.
3. Reviews or notices of agricultural
works.
4. The discussion of such objects of
political econoihy as are connectted
with the preservation and support of the
interest of ttgficulture.
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 country and
district in the Southern Statesfroln tvhich
such information can be obtained.
7. The consideration of public improve
ment by roads, railways and canals.
8. Discoveries in science, or the arts,
and occurrences of other events that are
considered likely to effect the interest ol
agriculture.
TERMS:
The Southern Planter is published '
every other week, each number consists i
of eight 4to pages. Price $2 50 a year

may be made to the Editor through the

THE SILK CULTURIST.
FjSNHE Executive Committee of the Hartford
Ja. County Silk Society, have commenced a
publication, called the Silk Cultwist and Far
mers Manual.
The object of the publication is to disseminate
a through knowledge of the cultivation of the
Mulberry Tree, in all iis varieties —the rearing
of Silk Worms—the production of Cocoons,
anti the reeling of Silk, in the most approved
method. The importance of this knowledge
will appear fro id the fact that the nett profits ot
of landdevoted to the culture of Silk, is double,
if not triple, tothat derived from any other crop
which can be put upon it. It is also a fact;that
very moderate'fanner can raise several hun
dred dollars worth of silk; Without interfering
With his ordinary agricultural operations. But
in order toavail himself of this facility to obtain
, competency and wealth, which our soil and
! climate have given him, he must possess hiin-
I self of information on the subject—for without
it his attemps will be fruitless. Il is, therefore
the object of tht? Committee to diffuse this in
formation as extensively as possible, and at the !
cheapest rate. The publication will contain ri |
complete manual or directory from soWing thC j
seed to reeling the Silk, together With such |
; facts and experiments, as will enable farmers
; to laise Silk, and prepare it for market, without
. further knowledge or assistance. It will also
contain interesting matter on agricultural sub
jects in general.
Terms.— TheCulturist will be published in
monthly numbers of Eight Quarto Pages, at i
Fifty Cents a year. No subscription will be re
reived unless paid in advance, and for not less
i than a year.
Subscriptions received by F. G. Comstock,
| Scc’y, Hartfard, Conn., to whom also, Commit- ■
i nicaiionsmay be addresesd,.which if post paid, i
will be attended to. . I
JjT Editors who will copy the above, shall i
receive the publication for one year.
