JAMES HILLIARD, Adm'r. April IG, 1838. Frosbectus. OF THE Southern Literary Ilexsenser. rrUHS is a monthly Magazine, devoted chiefly -1- to Literature, but occasionally finding room also for articles that fall within the scope of Science ; and not professing an entire disdain of tasteful elections, 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 are 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 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 overwhelmn every undis criminating student, impartial criticism, gov erned hy the views just mentioned, is one of the most inestimable and indispensable of auxiliaries to him who does wish to discriminate. Essays and Tales, having in view utility or a musement, or both—Historical sketches and Reminisencf.s of events too minute for History, yet elucidating it, and heightning its interest may be regarded as forming tlx* staple of the work. And of indigenous Poetry, enough is published—sometimes of no mean strain—to man 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—-and not one alone, but many. The public mind is feverish and irritated still, 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 mense proportion of our people:—Every spring should be set in motion, to arouse the enlighten ed, and to increase tlmir number; so that the great Cnemy of popular government may no lon ger brood, like a portenrious cloud, over the des tinies of our country. \nd to accomplish all these ends, what more powerful agent can be em ployed, than a periodical ou 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-live 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, au equality with our brethren «nd a domestic insti tution exclusively our ow n, beyond all doubt, af fords us, il 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 tue North and South bound endearingly together, forever, in the silken bands of mutual kindness and affection. Far from meditating hostility to the north, he lias al ready drawn, and he * hopes hereafter to draw, much of liis choicest matter thence; and happy indeed will he deem himself, should his 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, and to brighten and strengthen the sacred tics of fra tcrnal love. The Southern Literary Messenger lias 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. lie 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, ou the best of paper, and neatly covered, at $5 a year—payable in advance 2. Or five new subscribers, by sending then names and S2O at one time to the editor, w ill re ceive their copies for one year, for that sum, or at $4 for each. 3. The risk of loss of payments for subscrip tions, which have been properly committed to the mail, or to the hands of a post master, is assum ed by the editor. 4. If a subscription is not directed to be dis continued before the first number of the next vol umc lias been published, it will betaken as a con tinuance for another year. Subscriptions must commence with the beginning of the volume, and will not be taken for less than a year’s pub lication. 5. The mutual r bligations of tlm publisher and subscriber, for the year, are fully incurred as soon as the first number of the volume is issued : and after that time, no discontinuance of a subscrip tion will be permitted. Nor will a subscription be discontinued for ai’y earlier notice, while arv thing thereon remains due, uules t the untiun ol the Editor. , CARD. 7h the patrons of the South, rn Literary Messenger. The startling cost at which this work has been established, and is sustained, and the backwa «J --ness of many subscribers in fulfilling their fun of our mutual compact, call indispensably for an <«r |>t al, not to their liberality—but to their justice. If punctual payments are ever necessary, thev are pre-eminently so in the case of such a publica tion, —purely literary—almost wholly original and destitute of the vital aid which newspapers derive from advertisements. My all is at stake, in this enterprise.—lt is a venture, stimulated indeed by some hope of o molument; but founded largely, also upon the well warranted expectation of rallying Southern talents and Southern public spirit, around the drooping and well nigh prostrate banner of South ern Literature. Since it has now acquired claims upon Southern justice— can it be, that this are urged in vain ? Subscribers then, who are in arrears and le them remember, that payment is due in advance, will, I trust, without delay, transmit the mounts they owe to me, at Richmond, by mail, at my risk and cost; taking proper evidence of the fact and .late of mailing; and retaining a memoran dum of each note sent. „. . , XT THOMAS YV. WHITE. Richmond, Nov. 24, 1837. PROSPECTIS TO the third volume of the TOStTSfffi, Containing quarterly Fashion Plates, Illustrated Articles, tpc. the cheapest periodical in the world.

These will embrace the departments of useful science, essays, tales and poetry which may deserve’the name.

EDITORS. MRS. ANN S. STEPHENS <S C WILLIAM W. SNOWDEN, Assisted by many of the most popular Writers. SINCE the publication of the May number, the demand for the Ladies’ Companion has been unprecedented and beyond the most sanguine anticipations. At the commencement of the vol* uine an additional number of copies were printed, which was considered at the time adequate io sat* isly all the orders which might be received, and leave a considerable number on hand for subse quent calls. The publisher is more than gratified in stating that the whole edition was nearly ex* hausied before the issuing of the seventh number of the volume; aud at tins time but very few com plete sets remain on hand, to supply the nun er ous orders w hich are tiaily received from every section of the United States. Inconsequence of this great unforeseen increase of new subscribers, he lias determined to double the number of impressions for the subsequent year; while b<‘ most gratefully appreciates the un precedented encouragement extended to the La. dies’Companion, and at the same time he begs to assure the readers of the Magazine and the pub lic in general, that it is his ardent resolution to meet it w ith a corresponding liberality on his part to merit it* continuance. Splendid .Steel Engravings by our best ar tists, accompany each number—illustrated by Pales at cl spirited Sketc hes—w hich w ill, as here tofore, continue magnificent and far superior to those published in any other Magazine iu Ameri ca. The Ladies’ Companion contains a larger quvi tity of reading than any other magazine "issued iu this country, and its subscription price is only three dollars a year, while the great combination of talent secured for the coming year wifi render it unequalled by any other periodical. Its Literary Character ! will undergo con siderable change, as the publisher of the Ladies’ ( umpanion, in order to show his appreciation of the public favor already extended to him so liber ally, has sec ured the aid of Mrs. ANN S. STE PHENS, late Editor of the ‘Portland Magazine,’ and author of a series of the most beautiful and 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 of our country. la addition to the powerful talents ol Mrs. Stephens, the proprietor has secured a list of contributors, which combined will render (he Ladies’ Companion one of the most interestin'' and talented Magazines of tliedav.

J. V ntsim, whose qualifications for the task are too w ell known to require wr tes timony. J his department of the Ladies’ Companion has ever commanded a large share of attention, and been looked upon w ith 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, aud to the Professor, under whose supervision it is placed, to make that portion ol the magazine allotted to Music, more than ever deserving of the countenance of every lover ol music. It has ever been and wiff contin ue to be the desire to have all pieces of Music printed con fitly and free from errors. Jhe V ork in General. Over eveiy depart ment an equally careful supervision will be strict ly by the Editors, and all appropriate expenditures w ill be liberally bestow ed, as it is the design of the publisher, w ith the aid of his con tributors and the advieeof Ids friends to make the Ladies Companion distinguished for the bewul) and accuracy es its typography; the variety ana Irgh tone oj its literary articles; the quality and value of its music ; and the unequalled splendor ol its Pictoral Embellishments. It is the determination .of the publisher to use every means to maintain the superiority which the Ladies Companion has obtained. For four years he lias steadily pursued a Course of improve ment, and he flatters himself that his present fa cilities are such as to give the Ladies’ Companies eminent advantages over all other publications of its character. h rom 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 deenn ed too gieat to render the work equal to any other extant. J lie flattering and general testimonials of nearly every cotemporary 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 its readers such great return for their subscrip’ don. The Prize Articles will all be published du ring the year.
