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 on business must be addressed to O. H. WELLS, Publisher and, Proprietor. Greenville, S. S., Dec. 1834. COURT OF ORDINARY',) Lincoln County, May Term, 1835.

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 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 —or $2 if paid in advance. Payments may be made to the Editor through the mail at his risk. Any person who shall hereafter pro cure four new subscribers, and transmit their first years subscription,shall receive a fifth copy of the current year, without additional charge.

June 12 70 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. .
