®jft gailj s)rtss. 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. —The Richmond Sentinel calls Forney “a dead cock in the pit.” Not so: he is a dead “duck” in a spit.

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.
