PROSPECTUS

tut: crusader.
fINIIE undersigned have adopted the above,as
1 the significant title of a Monthly 1 aper,
winch with sufficient encouragement, they pro
pose to publish in tho City of Macon, to be de
voted to the interests of Teutperanco, buuca*
tion and Religion. .
Tho plan ofthis work was first suggested, in
view ofthe rapidly growing numbers within the
ranks of the Sons of Tampnrance, and the in
creasing demand for light, touching the objects
and movements of tin* benevolent and flourish
ino “Order." Wo believe that a Divine agency
is manifest in the startling progress and triumph*
of this great moral organization. It is God *
work, lie is now summoning his “embattled
hosts”for a crusade against the greatest foe that
ever scourged the earth. Temperance, there
fore, will stand prominent upon our banner.
But while we march under the “triple flag,”
and solicit the patronage and fostering care of
“Tho Sons," yet, we shall claim the privilege
of striking some good blows lor Education at:d
Religion. “The Order of the Sims,” we regard,
under God, as the handmaid of the Church, the
harbinger of Religion—“preparing the way ofthe
Lord."
Wo shall spare no pains to make Tilt!
a work of standard merit; to give
it a decided character for u-eftiliiess, and to
make it a work interesting to general readers.
CONDITIONS:
Tli« Crusader will bo issued in Month
ly numbers, containing Sixteen quarto pages j
each, at Ono Dollar per annum, payable llie :
delivery of the first number. The Second Num
ber will in no case be sent to a subscriber unless
the subscription price shall have been forwarded
previously to the time of its issue.
Persons acting as agents will receive ten per

shall also be entitled to a copy of the work as a
bonus. It is especially desired that those who
may become agents, or may interest themselves
m obtaining subscribers, will uet immediately,
and forward such names as may be pledged, at
the earliest possible date, as it is our wish to
make our first issue bv the Ist of February, if
the requisite patronage can bo sernred.
Editors who may be friendly to the enterprise,

Columbus, January 16, 1849.
To tlic Public.
The Proprietor of the above establishment,
having been accused in last week s Deinociat,
by Messrs. Bruno & Virgins, of making a “false
statement" in regard to Mr Herz s selection of
a Bacon & Raven Piano, all persons who take
sufficient interest in the matter (that lias remain
ed undisputed for the last two years,) aro res
pactfully requested to read the following corres
pondence and judge for themselves, who has
made a “false statement.”
COLUMBUS, Ga., 19th Jan , 1849.
John Forsyth —Dear Sir —l take the liberty
to hand to you an advertisement of Messrs Bruno
& Virgins, in one of the late city papers, in
which I am accused of making a ‘false state
ment,” and to support which accusation your
name is cited as a witness
Will you do me tho favor to state your recol
lection of the transaction referred to? Very
respectfully. CHARLES REPS.
COLUMBUS, Jan. 20, 1849.
Mr. Charles Reps—Dear Sir— ln reply to
yonr note of y esterday, I have to regret that
Messrs. Bruno & Virgins have called on me to
testify in a matter of difference between you ; at
least without consulting my recollection of the
facts lam cited to prove. Had they consulted
me, I should not now have to say, that the testi
mony of my recollection does not support their
“correction of a false statement.
The facts are simply, that at the request of
Mr. Herz, I went with him to both establish
ments— vours and Messrs Bruno &. V irgins
and after trying several instruments in each, he
selected a “Bacon & Raven,” from yours ; and
not because it was a “seven octave” (for it was
a six or to re,) but, as I understood him, because
he preferred it. Respectfully, yours, etc.

• I'llE GLOBE:
.1 Congressional, .Agricultural and Literary
.\ttcspapir.
» HE Editors ofilie Congressional Globe pro-
I pose anew publicali n. lo deserve tile
patronage whic h Congress has accorded to their
reports of its debates, in receiving and making
the Globe the official register, they intend to add
promptitude to whatever merit lias hitherto re
. commended the work. 1 hey will publish a
Daily Globe, to record the proceedings and de
bates as iliev occur ; and a Congressional Globe
periodically’as heretofore, embodying the re
ports of Congress separate from the miscellaneous
matter which will accompany them in the daily
print. To fill the slice of the daily newspaper,
ii is designed to gather the news from all quar
ters, and complete the .itcnts by drawing from
every source hat may be ol most inlerest among
literary novelties, and of greatest utility ill scien
tific and practical works on agriculture. For
material, the leading journals and periodicals of
France and Great Britain, treating of such sub
jects. will be consulted, and, it is hoped, advan
tageously used Original essays, especially on
topics connected with agriculture, w ill be obtain
ed from the most e*iilighlened and practical men
of our country.
The Globe, as a newspaper, and as a vehicle
of information and amusement ill other respec’s,
will be under the charge of Francis P. Blair
arid James U Pickett. The Congressional
department and business concerns of the paper
will he under the management of John C. Rives.
The public are familiar with Blair and Rives as
connected with the press. In introducing Mr.
Pickett as one of the concern, they will be al
lowed to say a few words of him. He is a gen
tleman favorable known to the Government, for
talent and judginem which distinguished his di
plomatic service while connected with the mis
sion to Quito ; and more recently when Charge
rPAffaire-. to Peru. From his pen mainly the
Globe will derive the selections and translations
from the French journals and periodicals, the
comments on them, and the other literary articles
which will lie found among its chief attractions.
The Globe will be published daily during the
session ofCongress, and Weekly the balance of
the year,and will undergo distribution in the
form of a Weekly Globe, a Congressional Globe
and ail Appendix.
r l’lie Weekly Globe will be the vehicle of the
miscellaneous articles of the daily print, with a
synopsis of the Congressional proceedings.
’Pile Congressional Globe will embody, as it
lias done for the last sixteen years, Congression
al pioceedings and debates exclusively.
The Appendix will embrace the revised
speeches separately, and the messages of the
President of the United States, and the reports
of the Heads ofthe Executive Departments.
The Congressional Globe and Appendix will
be published as fast as the proceedings of Con
gress will make a number. Subscribers may ex
pect one number of each a week during the first
four weeks of a session, and two or three num
bers of each a week afterwards, until the end of
the session.
Nothing of a political party aspect will appear
in the Globe save that which will be found in
the Congressiobal reports. A paper assuming
to be an iinpaitial vehicle for all sides, cannot
maintain its character if the editorial columns
reflect a parly hue. The Editors of the Globe
have borne their share in the party conflicts of
the press They claim an honorable discharge
from the vocation. The Globe will inviolably
maintain the neutrality which its relation to
Congress imposes.
