THF CHEAPEST PERIODIC VI, IN THE WORLD.
}N commencing anew volume, the publisher
would take occasion to observe, that not only
will the same exertions be continued, which have
secured to his subscription list an unexampled in
crease, but hi s claims upon the public favor will
be enhanced by every means which unceasing en
deavor, enlarged facilities, and liberal expendi
ture can command.
The subjoined is a brief plan of the work :
Its Original Papers will be so varied as to
form a combination of the useful with the enter
taining and a: reeable. These will embrace the
departments of useful science, essays, tales,
and poetry which may deserve the name.
It is the publishers design to make the Visite
agreeable to the old and the young—to the sedat
and the gay—to mingle the valuable with the a
musing—and to pursue the tenor of his way with
the entertainment of good feelings toward all par
ties.
ILK MS.— Ihe Visiter is published every eth
er Saturday, on fine white paper, each number
will contain 24 large super-royal octavo pages,
enveloped in a fine printed cover, forming at the
end ol the year a volume of nearly 600 pages, at
the very low price of $1 25 cents per annum in
advance, or 6J cents per number payable on de
livery.
I ost Masters, aaid others who will procure our
subscribers and enclose Five Dollars to the pro
prietor shall receive the sth ropv gratis.
All orders addressed to tlie publisher, 49 Ches
nut Street, post paid, will receive immediate at

Reminisencfs of events too minute for liistOi\

may be regarded as forming tii« 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 mat; .
The public mind us feverish and irritated rill,
from recent political strifes : The soft, assuaxive
influence o! Literature is needed, to allay tin t
fever, and soothe that irritation. Vice and mitv
are rioting abroad :—They should be driven by
indignant rebuke, or lashed by ridicule, into their
lifting haunts. Ignorance lords it over an im
mense proportion of our people:—Every sprint'
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 portentfous 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 ; it that plan be but carried out in nrae*
tice !
The South peculiarly requires such an agent, j
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
tlinty! Is tins contrast justified by the wealth,
the leisure, the native talent, or the actual liter,m I
taste of the Southern people, compared with
those of the Northern? No: for in wealth, tal
ents and taste, we may justly claim, at feast,
equality w ith our brethren aid a domestic ins .
tution exclusively our own, beyond all doubt
fords us. if we choose, twice the leisure for n
mg and writing which they enjoy.
It was from a deep sense of this local want, th
the word Southern was engrafted on this ; r :
odieal: and not with any design to nourish :.:•■
prejudices, or to advocate supposed local n,
csts. Far from any such thought, it is the i.
