We deem it necessary, however, to state that the political stand which the Mirror will assume, will be a firm-and independent one; and in support oi the Statu diems and Anti-Van Buri n party of Georgia; but conducted with moderation anil prudence, without descending to the low billings gate which is o characteristic of the political Newspapers of the day.

April 1 TROSFECTI s. of The Wonllicrn Ulerary KTMIIS is a monthly Magazine, devoted chiefly -I- to Literature, but occasionally finding room also for articles that fall within the* scope of Science ; and not professing an entire disdain of tasteful selections, though its matter lias been, as it will continue to be, in the main, original . Party Politics, and controversial Tlteoloo u, as fir as possible, are jealously excluded. They arc sometimes so blended with discussions in litera ture or in moral science, otherwise unobjection able, as to gain admittance for the sake of the more valuable matter to which they adhere : but whenever that happens they are incidental, only; not primary. They are dross, tolerated only be cause it cannot w ell be severed from tire sterling ore wherewith it is incorporated. Reviews and Critical Notices, occupy their due space in the work: and it is the Editor’s aim that they should have a threefold tendency—to convey, in a condensed form, such valuable truths or interesting incidents as are embodied in the works reviewed,—to direct the readers attention to books that deserve to be read—and to warn him against wasting time and money upon that large number, which merit only to be burned. In this age of publications that by their variety.and multitude, distract and overwhelm!! every undis criminating student, impartial criticism, gov erned by the views just mentioned, is one of the most inestimable and indispensable cf auxiliaries to him who does icish to discriminate. Essays and Rales, having in view utility or a umseincnt, or both— Historical sketches —and Remimsences of events too minute for History, yet elucidating it, and heightning its interest may be regarded as forming tli*» staple of the work. And of indigenous Toetry, enough is published—sometimes of no mean strain—to m an ifest and to cultivate the growing "poetical taste and talents of our country. The times appear, for several reasons, to de mand such a work—-aud not one alone, but many. The public mind is feverish and irritated stiil, from recent political strifes: The soft, assuasive influence of Literature is needed, to allay that fever, and soothe that irritation. Vice and folly are rioting abroad :—They should be driven by indignant rebuke, or lashed by ridicule, into their fitting haunts. Ignorance lords it over an im ueuse proportion of our peopl •: —Every sprint should be set in motion, to arouse the enlighten ed, and to increase th**ir number; so that the great enemy of popular government may no lon ger brood, like a portentous cloud, over the des tinies of our country. Ynd to accomplish all these ends, w hat more powerful agent can be em ployed, than a periodical on the plan of the Mes senger ; if that plan be but carried out in prac tice ! The South peculiarly requires such an agent. In all the Union, south of Washington, there are but two Literary periodicals! Northward of that city, there are probably at least twenty-five or thirty! Is this contrast justified by the wealth, the leisure, the native talent, or the actual literary taste of the Southern people, compared with those of the Northern? No: for in wealth, tal ents aud taste, we may justly claim, at least, an e yudi!y with our brethren md a domestic insti tution exclusively our own, beyond all doubt, af fords us, if we choose, twice the leisure for read ing and writing which they enjey. It was from a deep sense of this local w ant, that the word Southern was engrafted on this peri odical : and not with any design to nourish local prejudices, or to advocate sifpposcd local inter ests. Far from any such thought, it is the Edi tor's fervent wish, to see the North and South hound endearingly together, forever, in the silken hands of mutual kindness and affection. Far ■Vom meditating hostility to the north, lie has al ready drown, and lie hopes hereafter to uraw much of his choicest matter thence; and happy indeed will he deem himself, should his pages, by making each region know the other better contri bute it: any essential degree to dispel the lowering clouds that now threaten the peace of both, anil to brighten and strengthen the sacred ties of fra ternal love. 'ilie Southern Literary Messenger has now reached the 11 tlx No. ot its thud volume.— lion far it has acted out the ideas here littered, is not for the Editor to say. He believes, how ver that it falls not further short of them, than human weakness usually makes Practice full short of Theory. CONDITIONS. 1.
