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 rpo amend an ordinance entitled nn ordinance X for defining what shall be considered puli- He nuisance*, and for the prevention, punish ment and removal oftlm same.

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.
