OF THE GREENVILLE MOUNTAINEER» gBIHE Subscriber, in assuming the Editorial JL duties oflhe Mountaineer, deems it due to its present Subscribers, as well as those who may in future 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 uadeviating 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 ofour hap piness as a people.” It is not necessary to de fine what those principles are—lt is believed that 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 tiro thirds of the money due to sqch a paper can be col lected—and it takes time to collect even that. The proprietor—Mr. Wells—is I hankful for the patronage already extended to him. He feels gratified that the names of the most talent ed and influential men ofour 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 theUxtoN, in Spartanburg, Pickens, Laurens, and particularly in Abbeville, to ex ert themselves in aiding the circulation of the TfIUTII. 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 powei jto render the paper worthy of the patron age of the Union Public. W. L. YANCEY. TERMS'—The Monntaincer 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 sis ty 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.

SOUTHERN PLANTER, - AND IIOUTICULTUIIAL LYCEUM, t PUBLISHED AT MACON, GEORGIA, ; BY M. BARTLETT. r IVIE low state of both the practice and profits of Agriculture in the Southern Slates, is admitted and deplored by a H, yet adequate remedies and relief have not been proposed, and are scarcely hoped for by even the most sanguine Ag riculturalists. Notwithstanding the great improvements in practice, and the exam ples 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 arc becoming impoverished, and 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 farm 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 of agri - culture in the South are many—political ' 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 enough to state that every existing cause of depression is mul tiplied in power and effect, by the want I of means for communication and concert ■ 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-i 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 Journal—and he is also sensible that the habits of 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 Planter will serve as an efficient support to the agricultural improvement and gen-, . era) interests of the south. For the pro- ! I motion of these objects through this me-1 dium, the co-operation of some among the , most able to render service, has been al ready promised; and every means will be I used to invite the aid of all who are in-1 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 ' may be made, and. speedily answered— and if such interchange oi opinions and experience can be made as freely, and in 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 tain and immediately obtained. The most enlightened farmer is necessarily often ignorant of important facts, in re gard to which he might be instructed by others of very inferior attainments or ex 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 mites ol information could be drawn together and preserved, they alone would add incalculably to the existing stockof our agricultural knowl dge. The Editor has no personal claim for aid to the proposed publication, nor does he ask it, except on the ground, of its j tendency to advance the individual or I general interest of its patrons. Should . such considerations induce the offer of i 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 rl may obtain. The Southern Planter will embrace, and be limited to the following subjects: 1. Original communications of experi ments, observations and opinions on agri culture, gardening, and domestic ecmio f»y- 2. Selections from the best periodical publications on agriculture, European and American, and from such othbr agri cultural works as have not beten 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 economy as are connectted with the preservation and support ofthe interest of agriculture. 5 Chemistry as connected with ao-ri 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 States from which 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 oi agriculture. TERMS. The Southern Planter is published every other week, each number consists of eight 4to pages. Price 62 50 a year —or 62 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. PROSPECTUS OF THE FOURTH VOLt'ME OF THE SOUTHERN ROSE BUD, ENLARGED AND IMPROVED UNDER THE TITLE OF THE SOUTHERN ROSE. THE first number of the fourth volume of the “ Southern Hose Bud." will be issued I the last week in August, 1835, under the name i ofthe SOUTHERN ROSE. The amount of I matter will be nearly double, the paper of a fine ' quality, and the type improved. The subscribers to the “ Rose Bud ” have in- i eluded persons of all denominations in religion throughout the Union. The contributors to the Southern Rose will be persons of high literary standing, many of whom have contributed to the “ Rose Bud.” TERMS—Two Dollars per annum payable in advance. June 12 70 THE SILK UULTURIST. FfilHE Executive Committee ofthe Hartford JI. County Silk Society, have commenced a publication, called the Silk Cutturist and Ear ners Manual. The object of the publication is to disseminate a through knowledge ofthe cultivation ofthe Mulberry Tree, in all iis varieties—the rearing of Silk Worms—the production ol Cocoons, and the reeling of Silk, in the most approved method. The importance of this knowledge will appear from the fact that the nett profits of 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 fannepran raise several hun dred dollars worth ofsilk, without interfering with his ordinary agricultural operations. But in order toavail himself of this taeility to obtain competency and wealth, which our soil and climate have given him, he must possess him self of information on the subject—for without it his attemps will be fruitless. It is, therefore the object ofthe Committee to diffuse this in formation as extensively as possible, and at the cheapest rate. The publication will contain a complete manual or directory from sowing the seed to reeling the Silk, together wrth such facts and experiments, as will enable farmers to raise 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 irf monthly numbers of Eight Qiiarlp Pages, at Fil'ty Cents a year. No subscription will be re ceived unless paid in advance, and for not less than a year. Subscriptions received by F. G. Comstock ’ Sec’y, Hartford, Conn., to whom also, Commo’. nicationsmay he addresesd, which if post paid will be attended to. Editors who will copy the above, shall receive the publication for one year. Hartford, April, 1835. co The Celebrated Race Horse CONTENTION.
