WB LARGEST CIRCULATION.
AUGUSTA, Q-A..1
TUESDAY MORNING March 6, 1860
Patronage to Home Industry.
We have always believed, and the
faith is still in us, that the best form of
independence which our people could
achieve, is that which patronage to home
Industry and the development of our
internal resources can afford.
Some years ago nn advocating this
principle we had the honor of being
welcomed into the ranks of the Whig
party by that sterling old the
National Intelligencer, as a protectionist!
Now, we hold that there is a vast differ'
enee between popular protection and
political or legislative protection. In
the one case there is a support and en
couragement to be given only to useful
and deserving enterprises: in the other
it is given to all alike—good, bad, and
indifferent, and the people are forced, in
a measure, to take such articles, per
chance as may be vastly inferior, and
in the end dearer than those which they
could purchase abroad. That kind of
protection we are opposed to. It may
do very well for New England rum,
wooden nutmegs, and shoe-peg pumpkin
seeds; it may do very well to fatten a
few lordly manufacturers on ; but it will
not increase the real prosperity of a
State or advance the real interests of its
people. What we propose, then, is for
the people of the South, (and the people
of the North can do the same thing if
they have a mind to), when we have a
useful and deserving enterprise in our
midst, to give whatever patronage we
have to that enterprise, rather than to
one abroad—to eucourage the establish
ment of manufactures, and whatever can
develop the resources of our soil and
climate by all the honorable means in
our power.
When the wat broke out we soon dis
covered what a helpless people we were-
We produced nothing but cotton, and
with that great staple we fancied, in our
foolish self-sufficiency, that we had a
mighty monarch who would sway the
destinies of the world, who could estab
lish an empire for us, and bring the
nations of the earth suppliant to our
feet. But the war and its results have
dissipated that notion. The first soon
exposed to us our nakedness, as it were,
our dependence, our utter helplessness.
Almost everything that we ate and drank,
everything that we have use for—our
furniture, our clothing, our crockery, our
bacon, our tea aod coffee; our mules—
all came from the North or the West.
Our newspapers, our literary journals
especially; and our school books, were
importations; and the sets manufacto
ries that we did have were for articles of
coarse quality and poorly patronized at
that. Indeed, we remember to have
heard it stated that a bale of Southern
domestics could be sent North, returned,
and then sold at lower rates and more
readily than where it was produced! It
was not good because it was home-made.
Well, the war came, and with it the
necessity for several articles which could
not be dispensed with. This necessity
compelled the establishment of manu
factories in various sections of the coun
try ; but with the close of the war, these
have been closed, and we are again in
as helpless a condition as ever—worse,
it anything, because the courtiers of the
late King Cotton, the Africans, are now
free,and their labor is not to be depeuded
upon. What, then, is to be done ? Sit
idly by and pine over our sad fate—be
moan our helpless condition, or indulge
in some visionary schemes of a bright
Mexican or Brazilian Utopia ? Oh, tioi
That is unwise, unpatriotic, nay, it is un
manly. We must be up and doing. “It
is better to never give up than once to
despair.” We must go to work and till
the soil, establish factories and foundries,
build up schools and colleges—in short
we must develop, by all the means in our
power, the resources of our great section.
It is of far more consequence to produce
an ear of corn, or to raise a blade ot grass,
or to manufacture what we need, than to
have a Representative in Congress. We
can make great use of tlfe one, and very
little of the latter. Besides, we have a
President who considers it his duty to
look after the interests of the eleven un
represented States of the South, and
will fight the Constitutional battles of the
country for us. Let us, then, leave poli
tics alone, and turn our attention to the
subject which we have here briefly
referred to. It will surely be of more
advantage to us, and give us more real
independence than a dozen wars, and a
thousand political demagogues could se
cure for us.

Southern Medical & Surgical
JOURNAL !
Third series—
EDITED BY
JOSEPH JONES, M. D.
Professor of Medical Ch tniztr y in the Medical
College of Gfurgia. at Augusta; and
torinerl Surgeo in the
Provisional Ar»,y of the Confederate States.
The SOUTHERN MEDICAL and SUR
GICAL JOURNAL, of Augusta. Georgia,
was established in I8?6. by the late Profeggnr
Milton Antony, the illustrious founder of
the Medical College of Georgia, and has al
ways commanded the respect and patronage
of the Profession, not only as one of the
oldest and largest American Periodicals,
but chiefly by those valuable original eom
municatio is, contributed by the most eui
nent, scientific men and practitioners of the
Southern State**, which have enriched its
pages during tbe past thirty years. Tho
volumes already issued, embrace over six
teen thousand closely printed pages, con
taining more than six hundred orig : nal
communications from professional men
throughout the Southern States, besides an
immense number of valuable art'des, select
ed from its ample list of American and
foreign exchanges.
During the recent eiv'»l war. the pub’ica*
tionofthe SOUTHERN MEDICAL AND
SURGICAL JOURNAL was necessarily sus
pended. At the close of a bloody aud dis
astrous war, which has eudedin the destruc
tion and surrender of the Southern arming,
and in the destruction aud capture «»f the
archives of the Confederate Government and
of the immense stores of medical fa"sts and
observations accumulated by the Medical
Officers of the Confederate Army, under the
direction of their intelligent and efficient
Surgeon General, it is believed by medical
men of the highest standing in this section
of the ?outb, that it is important to esiab
lish at tbis time a Medical Periodical »»f
sufficient size to furnish ample room for tbe
publication of the valuable experience of the
Medical Officers of the laic Confederate
Army.
It will be the earnest effort of the Editor
to sus ain the former usefulness of this
Journal as a medium for the communica
tion of the discoveries and advancing doc
trines of science aud of all the departments
of Medicine, and of/ the facts and discove
ries tending to develop the material pros
perity of the South, and especially ot the
valuable Medical statistics and observations
of tho recent disastrous revolution
In view of the good accomplished in times
past by the publication of the SOUTHERN
MEDICAL AND SURGICAL JOURNAL,
the Editor feels no hesitation in urging its
claims upon its former patrons and friends.
The SOUTHERN MEDICAL AND &IR
GICAL JOURNAL will be issued every
TWO MONTHS, commencing Ist of July,
1806, and each number will contain ONE
HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-SIX PACES
of printed matter, (octavo); the yearly
publication will therefore number Che
Thousand and Fifty-six pages, and be equal
in size to the largest American and Euio*
penn Jxurials.
