June 14 16 3t PROSPECTUS. \ or THE Southern Literary THIS is a monthly Magazine, devoted chiefly to Literature, but occasionally finding room also for articles that fall within the scope of Science ; and not professing an entire disdain of tasteful selection though its matter has been, as it will continue to be, in the main, original. Party Politics , and controversial I'heology, 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 bythe 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 a musement, or both— Historical sketches —and Reminisences of events too minute for History, yet elucidating it, and heightning its interest may be regarded as forming the 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 then 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 their 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. Vnd to accomplish all these ends, what 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 ot the Southern people, compared w-ith those of the Northern? No: for in wealth, tal ents and taste, we may justly claim, at least, an equality 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 w hich 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 (he Edi tor’s fervent wish, to see the North and South bound endearingly together, forever, in the silken bands of mutual kindness and affection. For from meditating hostility to the north, Ire has al ready drawn, and he hopes hereafter to draw, much oi his choicest matter thence; and happy indeed will he deem himself, should his pages by making each region know the other better contri bute m any essential degree to dispel the lowering clouds that now threaten the peace of both, and to brighten and strengthen the sacred ties of fra ternal love. CONDITIONS i}' , TliC Southern Literary Messenger is pub lished m 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 z. Or free new subscribers, by sending theii names and S2O at one time to the editor, will 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 ume has 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 obligations of the publisher and subscriber, tor 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 any earlier notice, while any thing thereon remains due, unles t the option ol the Editor. - r CARD. To the patrons of the Southern Literary Messenger. The startling cost at which this work has been established, and is sustained, and the backwa d ness ol many subscribers in fulfilling their nan of our mutual compact, call indispensably for an ap peal, not to their liberality—but to their justice. It 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. 1 1 My ALL is at stake, in this enterprise It is a venture, stimulated indeed by some hope of e mohunent; but founded largely, also upon the well warranted expectation of /allying Southern talents and Southern public spirit, around the uiooping and well nigh prostrate banner of South ern Literature. Since it has now acquired claims upon Southern justice— can it be, that thes are urged in vain ? * e Subscribers then, who are in arrears—and l. them remember that payment is due m advance will, I trust, without delay, transmit the mounts they owe to me, at Richmond, by mail Ti ll nsk and cost; taking proper evidence of the fS i d oTe°a f ch m n^e n !’nr and * " Richmond, Nov.
