The Augusta Mirror.
BY J. \V. THOMPSON.
O NE of the Chief charm* of Literature it its
nationally—its local interest. It was the
blending of national feeling aiidsoiifunent with the
production* of genius- Urn close alliance Qf litera
ture with patriotism that enabled t'm totlioraof an
tiquity to reach tlm heart* of lhupoo|>lo,aiid to ex
eit such powerful influence.upon the age and
country in which they lived. The literature of
olden Greece wus hut the breathing forth of* tho
national spirit and fueling. It was purely local,
and bears tlm stamp and impress of thu age and
people unless than of tUegutimsof those great
authors uud poets whose fame will endure forever.
—What knowledge have we of the nations that
huvo preceded us but that which wo have obtain
ed through the medium nf tlmir national litera
ture—orwhat better evidence do wo desire of
tlm mental imbecility and barbarism of uny peo
ple, modern or ancient, than their destitution in
this regard/ Indued all nationality that survives
n nation is it* literature. With our peculiar in
stitution then, what political or tun interest can
present stronger claims to the peopm of the South
ihuu that of her domestic literature? Certainly
none—for it must Im admitted liy nil, that none
other is so decidedly calculated to promote the
intelligence, patriotism, morality, ami consequent
security and happiness of her people!
The Minium ha* now been in existence about
two years, during which time, though no very
strenuous efforts have been nv.ule, the literary re
source* of tho immediate south have been snffl.
ciemly developed to warrant tho belief that our
own section of country is us capable of un ex
alted literature as any other portion of there-
An Ordinance

nf dollars be annually drained from tlm South to
pay for a literature, which comes tons divested
of all its local interest,and nut iinfrequently coup
led with insult uud upbraiding? There is no
good rensAn why .‘inch astute of things should
longer continue to exist. Behold the West!—al
ready has a vigorous liternturo sprung up almost
to maturity, in thut section of our country, which
within our recollection was hut an idle wilder
ness; and even now the genius ami talent of her
writers is beginning to equalize the literary coin-
uiercebetween the north utidtlie west, while it i*
called into existence and ably sustains several
literary periodicals of transcendent ineiit.
Are not we ofthe Booth equally competent to
think and write for ourselves? Have we not tin
equal degree of talent and patriotism? Most as*
mredly wo have! And yet we may not boast in
all our borders one flourishing domestic literary
journal—while the patronage of our people is
liberally bestowed to support foreign journals
and foreign writers. We do not, dv.aiva to ex
cite sectional prejudice against the literary per
iodicnls of the north—there uro many excellent
magazine* and journals which wo would lie glad
tosee extensively pa ronized.and which we nev
er Ihil to commend t > tho guulhern public. Nev
ertheless wo cunnol hut feel mortified nt our
present absolute literary dependence. We de
sire to see the literature of the south placed up
on nil equulitywiih that of o.her sections of our
country. The north, the oast, and the west
have their local literature—why shall not the
south? If our sectional pride will not prompt
us to the devolopeineiil of our own i('source*,
there are strong practicalreusons which should
urge us to foster and promote this most efficient
means of disseminating healthy sentiment, moral
and political among tho people. If uvertho pe
culiar institutions of a country demanded such
an influence—if ever the political posiiiun of u
peoplu rendered it important that they -should
gourd .with jealous enre tlio sources of opinion,
truly our position—which is daily becoming
more uud more opposed by powerful sectionaljn-
ternsts, ns well as the inflamed uud misguided
public opinion of other states, nt home and ahroud
—demands that we should not surrender the em
pire of tho mind to the sceptre of those who are
alien* to our interests and enemies to our rights
If it be true (nnd all history attests the fact) tint
the literature of u country exerts moie or less
influence upon the public sentiment, would it*
not be better tlmt our own writers should give
the tone ami impulse to that sentiment among us?
Would it not be better thut tho young, whose
minds are easiest lured and moulded by the
charms of literature, should imbibe the principles
4fc sentiments of southern writers than of those
who, if their published sentiments nre not in
imical to our own on a cerium important sub
ject, tire at least, strangers to our iuteicsls uud
our feelings?
Entertaining these views, the editor is deter
mined to devote all the energy of which he is
capable to the furtherance of flu* truly commend
able object, und lie trust* that in such a cause,
he will not bo permitted to uppeal in vniu to the
intelligence and patriotism of the south for en-
courugcuientand support.
Oun LiTKnAR? Resources.—Willi a view nf
placing the Mirror in competition with its north
ern contemporaries hero at home, we have re
ceully made great exertion to enlist in its sup
port nqich ofthe talent of the south; and from
the cordinl ussnrunces which we have received
from writers of eminence, of their friendship
and aid we have no hesitancy in informing the
friends of our domestic literature that the Mirror
will iii future be ably sustained hy southern
writers.
To the Ladies ok thi: South.—Since the
commencement ofthe Mirror, it has been the
constnmuim ofits editor to give to it* pagesn
high moral tone, and though devoted to the broad
field of Southern Literature, and consequently
unbracing the lighter with tho more elevated
branches of literary composition, it never has
nor o.er shall descend to become the medium
of licentiousness nr ol ability. And though ti.e
work is spt-cinly dedicated to the ladies, who
have heretofore, and wo hope will continue to
he its most liberal patrons, we take thisoccnsiun
to reassure them that while it will ever be oiir
study to render our Mirror an ngreouble and in
teresting companion to the ludy of taste, it*
pages shall never ho marred by a singe sentiment
or expression which would enuse the slightest
blush upon the cheek of the most fastidiously
modest.
