PROSPECTUS
OF THE THIRD VOLUME OF THE
PA HLO UR MAG A ZINK
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 New
Works, tpc.,- and embellished with suverior En
g-ravings; Fine Wood Cuts,- Plates of the
Fashions; and Music.
Price $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
prospects without a horizon, continue to cheer 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
them, would save us the trouble of circulating
our claims on the public through the medium of
a prospectus.
For selections, the literary gardensof 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 MAG AZINE shall be oc
casionally embellished with beautiful Engrav
ings upon interesting subjects; and plates of the
newest fashions, plainer colored, as circumstan
ces will permit; besides wood cuts in great va
liety, and apiece of original or well selected
Music, at least twice a month.
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, wiihageneral
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 readersattention, 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 M AGAZINE 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
THIS 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 lodepend, 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 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 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- i
ters, as could not, with propriety, be classed ■
under the above named heads.
If an earnest desire to raise up a National I
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 bel 'evedthatthe Knick
erbocker Magazine will attain to general favor

TYPE FOUNDRY:
E. WHITE «Ss WM. HAGER.
RESPECTFULLY inform the Printers of.
the United Slates, to whom they have !
| longbeen individually known as Letter Found
| ers, that they have now formed a Copartner
l ship in said Business, and hope from their uni
i ted and extensive experience, to be able to give i
I full satisfaction to all who may favor them with '
i their orders.
The introduction of Machinery, in place ol
the tedious and unhealthful process of casting I
type by hand, a desideratum felt by the Euro- 1
pean and American founders, was" by Ameri-1
can ingenuity, and at a heavy expenditure of!
time and money, on the part of our senior part- I
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 paities before named, under the firm
of WHITE. HAGAR & CO.
Their specimen exhibits a complete series
from Diamond to 14 lines Pica; the Book and
News Typebetng in me 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 they may select from
our specimen. E. WHITE.

PROPOSALS.
For Publishing in the Town of Wetumpka, Al
abama, a weekly paper to be entitled the
WETUMPKA TIMES.
UpHETown ol Wetumka being situated at
JL 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
4 own, and to those who must trade there, as a
sort of Messenger between the agricultural and
commercial population—he, therefore proposes !
o establish a Journal in the Town of Wetump
ka, under the title which heads this prospec-
. ?bject of the Times is not to effect any
party views whatever, alld therefore, will not
be the organ of any faction, or the tool of any
party but will be 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 ol all parties and all opinions—also to a
frank, free and fall discussion of all the politi

TO THE PUBLIC,
subscriber, having purchased the
-H. Southern Agriculturist froin 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.sazwe to wtsand 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
eliorts in Agriculture and Horticulture, he in
vites free nnd 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 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 ef
forts, will be acceptable. If the last are worthy
of 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 not be in vain.
It would be a reproach to our Planters to sutler
this Periodical to meet the fate of the Southern
Review. Os the last itmay be justly said, that
it was suffered to fall, when 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
aspersions which have been so liberally bestow
ed upon us out of our section of country. The
‘ So UTHERNA GRIC UL TURIS 7’” in some
measure supplies the place of the Southern Re
vicw, 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
to 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
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 hispower tocontinue 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, feel
nga full assurance that there is wanting on
he part of our Planters, neither the liberality
nor mental energies necessary to sustain the
Southern Agriculturist.

THE SILK CULTURIStT
7|pHE Executive Committee of the Hartford
JI County Silk Society, have commenced a
publication., called lhe Silk Cultwiisl and F’ar
mers Manual.
The object of the publication is to disseminate
a through knowledge of the cultivation of lhe
Mulberry Tree, in all iis varieties—the rearing
of Silk Worms—the production of 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 farmer can raise several hun
dred dollars worth ofsilk, without interfering
with his ordinary agricultural operations. But
in order to avail himself of this facility 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 of the 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 with 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 in
monthly numbers of Eight Quarto Pages, at
Fifty Cents a year. No subscription will be re
reived unless paid in advance, and for not less
than a y ear.
Subscriptions received by F. G. Comstock
Sec’y, Hartford, Conn., to whom also, Cornmu’’
nications may be addresesd, which if post paid
will be attended to.
iCr Editors who will copy the above, shall
receive the publication for one year.

PROSPECTUS
OF A MONTHLY MAGAZINE' TO BE ENTITLED
THE SOUTHERN LITERARY JOURNA
To be published in Charleston, S. 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
yiew, 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 ot this '
Journal is proposed, and that the general and I
substantial support of the citizens of the South 1
is respectfully solicited.
The proposed Magazine will consist of Ori- 1
smal Communications on Literary and Scien
tific Subjects; of Popular Tales suggested by
historical and local associations; ol Poetry,
an d 1 olitical Intelligence. Its columns are in
tended to aflord a vehicle for the fiee 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 ot strictly Southern Literature
—if it shall serve to place upon record a true
account of the opinions, feelings, habits arid'./
general tone of thinking of an enthusiastic aiKF 1 *
nigh-minded people—if, under the enlivening
inspiration of the Genius Loci, and with the ap
proving smiles of the generous and the fair, and
and C tX\\ rr T ncc and effective aid of the learned
