THE GEORGIA MIRROR.
{eSTALLISHED IN 1634.]
A popular and highly esteemed Magazine, of gen
eral Literature and the Pine Arts, embellisncd
with gorgeous and costly Engravings, on S eel,
Copper and I Pood; and also with Fashionable
and popular Music, arranged for the Bia.no-
Fvrle, Guitar and Bard.
EDITORS.
MRS. ANN S. STEPHENS &C WILLIAM W. SNOWDEN.
Assisted by many of the most popular iPritcrs.
SINCE the publication of the May number, the
demand lor the Ladies’ Companion has
been unprecedented and beyond the most sanguine
anticipations. A. the commencement ot the vol
ume an additional number of copies were printed,
which was considered at the time adequate to sat
isfy all the orders which might be received, and
leave a considerable number on hand for sunse
queut calls. The publisher is more than gratified
in stating that the wiioic edition was nearly ex
hausted before the issuing of the seventh number
of the volume; and at tins time but very few com
plete sets remain on hand, to supply the numer
ous orders which are daily received from every
section of the United States.
Inconsequence ot this great unforeseen increase,
of new subscribers, ho has determined to double
the number of impressions lor the subsequent
year; while he most gratefully appreciates the un
precedented encouragement extended to the La
dies’ Companion, and ai the same time he begs to
assure the readers of the Magazine and the pub
lic in general, that it is liis ardent resolution to
meet it with a corresponding liberality on his part
to merit its continuance.
Splendid Steel Engravings by our best ar
tists, accompany each number —illustrated by
Talcs anti spirited Sketches—which will, as here
tofore, continue magnificent and far superior to
those published in any other Magazine in Ameri
ca.
The Ladies’ Companion contains a larger quan
Pity of reading than any other magazine issued in
this country, and its subscription price is only
three dollars a year, while the great combination
of talent secured lor the coming year will render
it unequalled by any other periodical.
Its Literary Character! will undergo con
siderable change, as the publisher of the Ladies’
Companion, in order to show liis appreciation ol
the public favor already extended to him so liber
ally, has secured the aid of Mrs. ANN S. S iE-
PiiENS, lateEditorof the ‘Portland Magazine,’
and author of a series of the most beautiful aud
popular tales ever presented to an American
public. No lady possessing greater variety of tal
ent, or better calculated to aid in conducting a
Ladies’ Magazine, could have been selected from
the galaxy of female genius which is the glory ol
our country. In addition to the powerful talents
of Mrs. Stephens, the proprietor has secured a
list of contributors, which combined wiii render
the Ladies’ Companion one of the most interesting
and talented Magazines of the day.
Mrs. L. li. .Sigourney, Mrs. Jane E. Locke,
Mrs. Wo oil hull, Mrs. Emma C. Embury, Miss
A. D. Woodbridgc, Miss 11. L. Beasley, Miss
Charlotte Cushman, Miss Mary Emily Jackson,
Messrs. Robert Hamilton, J. N. McJilton, James
Brooks, Erast us Brooks, Rev. J. 11. Clinch, Rev.
A. A. Lipscomb, Greenville Mellon, N. C.
Brooks, a. m. S. E. Beckett, James Furbish,
William Cutter, John Neal, llenry F. Harring
ton, Isaac C. Pray, Jr. James E. Vail, Edward
Maturin, Jonas B. Phillips, E. Burke Fisher, R.
S. Meckenzie, l. l. and.
With many others who will occasionally contri
bute to the pages of the work, and every e\3nion
will be made to render the Ladies’ Companion,
want a Worn devoted to the female portion of the
community should be, interesting, useful and in
structive.
The Musical Department is under the su
pervision of Mr. J. Watson, whose qualifications
for the tr.sk are too well known to require our tes
timony.
This department of the Ladies’ Companion has
ever commanded a large share of attention, arid
been looked upon with no little interest by its rea
ders, and more especially the Ladies, whom the
publisher is in the highest degree anxious to
please, it will continue to be a subject of more
than usual care to him, and to the Professor,
under whose supervision it is placed, to make that
portion of the magazine allotted to Music, more
than ever deserving of the counlcnance of every
lover of music. It has ever been and will contin
ue to be the desire to have all pieces of Music
printed corudly and free from errors.
The Work in General. Over every depart
ment an equally careful supervision will be strict
ly exercised by the Editors, and all appropriate
expenditures will be liberally bestowed, as it is the
design of the publisher, with the aid of liis-con
tributors and the advice of his friends to make the
Ladies' C/onpanion distinguished for the beauty
raid accuracy of its typography; the variety and
high tone <f its literary articles; the quality and
value of its music ; and the unequalled splendor
of its Pk'Tokal Embellishments.
It is the determination t of the publisher to use
every means to maintain the superiority which
the Ladies’Companion lias obtained. For four
years he has steadily pursued a course of improve
ment, and he Hatters himself that his present fa
cilities are such as to give the Ladies’ Companion
eminent advantages over all other publications of
its character.
From the foregoing it will be perceived that the
Ladies’ Companion embraces every department
within the range of Belles-Lettres and the Fine
Arts; and no exertions or expense will be deem
ed too great to render the work equal to any other
extant. The flattering and general testimonials
of nearly every eotemperary journal in the United
States, and in fact, many on the other side of the
Atlantic, have strongly asserted the undeniable
claims of the Ladies’ Companion to the support
of the public generally. There is no work that
gives ils readers such great return for their subscrip
tion.
The Prize Articles will all be published du
ring the year. These articles will comprise the
successful candidates for the premiums of ewe
thousand dollars awarded by a committee of liter
ary gentlemen in August last.
TERMS.—Three Dollars a year in advance, or
four during the year. No subscription received
lor less than one year.

PROSPECTUS
OF TIIE
A WEEKLY NEWSPAPER,
PUBLISHED IN
Florence, Stewart Cos. Ga.
V[7"E have been induced to publish the MIR
t ROR, from the firm conviction that the in
creasing wealth and ] opulation of the counties
bordering on the ( hattahoochee and Flint Rivers,
in this section of Georgia, call loudly for a chron
icler of the times.
We uo not deem it necessary to go into a
lengthy detail of the doctrines this paper will sup
port, or the principles it will inculcate, and the
grounds upon which they are predicated—but
will merely state that it is intended to diffuse gen
eral information throughout tho country, of a Do
mestic, I ond nature. A consid
erable ]*m:lou cf its columns vx ill be devoted to
Literary and Miscellaneous matter, which depart
ment shall receive part'cular attention.
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 supported'
the State Rights and Anti-Van Buren party
of Georgia; hut conducted with moderation and
prudence, without descending to ilie low billings
gate which is so characteristic of the political
Newspapers of the day. Claiming the right to ex
ercise an opinion of our own, we shall be willing,
at all times to admit that right in others—and when
ever occasion requires m. to speak of the doctrines
or opinions of our political opponents, we shall do
so with respectful consideration.
TERMS—The Georgia Mirror will be pub
lished at THREE DOLLARS a year, payable in
advance, or FOUR DOLLARS at the end of the
year.

PRO SR EC TUR.
OF THE
Saitlliei’ii liilcrai y Ufessem&’er.
FIMIIIS is a monthly Magazine, devoted chiefly
-B- to Literature, but occasionally finding
room also for articles that fall within the scope of
Science ; and net professing an entire disdain of
tasteful selections, though its matter has been, as
it will continue to be, in the main, original.
Party Politics, and controversial Theology, as
far 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 well be severed from the sterling
ore wherewith it is incorporated.
Reviews and Critical Notices, occupy tlieir
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 tlieir variety and
multitude, distract and overwliclmu every undis
criminating student, impartial criticism, gov
erned by the views just mentioned, is one of the
most inestimable and indispensable of auxiliaries
to him who docs wish to discriminate.
Essays and Tales, having in view utility or ?.
musement, or both— Historical sketchf". • ~t j
Keminisences of events too minute t ' or tlistory
yet elucidating it, and Damning itsl interest—
may be regnrueil ajj forming thn staple of the
Wol jy And Oi indigenous Poetry, enough is
publish.:-,!—sometimes of no mean strain—to man*
’lest and to cultivate the growing poetical taste
and talents of our country.
The times appear, for several reasons, to de
mand such a work—and not one alone, but many.
The public mind is feverish and irritated still,
from recent political strifes : The soft, nssuasive
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 luriied by ridicule, into their
fitting haunts. Ignorance lords it over an i m .
meuse proportion of our people:—Every spring
should be set in motion, to arouse the enlighten
ed, and to increase their number; so that the
great enemy of popular government may no lon
ger brood, like a portent’ous cloud, over the des
tinies of our country. Vnd 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 pecn ,: arly 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 and taste, we may justly claim, at least, a n
equality with our brethren aid a domestic insti
tution exclusively our own, beyond ail doubt, af
fords us, if we choose, twice the leisure for read
ing and writing which they enjoy.
It was from a deep sense of this local want, that
the word Southern was engrafted on this peri
odical : and not with any design to nourish local
prejudices, or to advocate supposed local inter
ests. Far from any such thought, it is the Edi
tor’s fervent wish, to see tne North and South
bound endearingly together, forever, in the silken
bands of mutual kindness and affection. Far
from meditating hostility to the north, he has al
ready drawn, and he hopes hereafter to draw,
much of his choicest matter thence; and happy
indeed will he deem himself, should liis pages, by
making each region know the other better contri
bute in any essential degree to dispel the lowering
clouds that now threaten the peace of both, anil
to brighten and strengthen the sacred ties of lia
ternal love.
'I he Southern Literary Messenger has
now reached the 11th No. of its third volume.—
How far it has acted out the ideas here uttered,
is not for the Editor to say. He believes, how
ever that it falls not further short of them, than
human weakness usually makes Practice fall short
of Theory.
CONDITIONS
1. The Southern Literary Messenger is pub
lished in monthly numbers, of 64 large super
royal octavo pages each, on the best of paper, and
neatly covered, at ;5 a year—payable in advance.
2. Or five new subscribers, by sending tlieir
names and 620 at one time to the'editor, will re.
ceive thoir copies for one year, for that sum, or
at 64 for each.
3. i he risk of loss es payments for subscrip,
tions, which have been prop er!y committed to the
mail, or to the hands of a post master, is assum
ed by the editor.
4. If a subscription is rot directed to be dis
continued bclure the first number oi the next vol
ume has been p nbli-hed, it will bet; I<n as a rou-
Uutnnce fi r another year. .Suita rij upr.s mi st
commence with the beginning of the volume,
and will not ue taken for less than a year’s pub
lication.
5. The mutual . litigations of tl;c publisher rrd
subscriber, for li.o year, are fully itn t ired as scon
as the first num! rot the volume is issued: and
after that time, no discontinuance oft» subscrip
tion will be permitted. Nor will a subscription
be discontinued for any earlier notice, while anv
thing thereon remains due, unles t the option
of the L ditcr. i
CARD.
To the pit frets rs tin Southern Literal y Msrcngcr.

peal, not to their liberality—! ut to tlieir jusi.u-.
If punctual payments arc ever necessary, tl ev are
pre-eminently so in the ease of Mich it publica
tion,—purely literary—almost wholly original—
and destitute of the vital aid which ’ newspapers
derive from advertisements.
