Por publishing in the town of Irwinton, Al

5!&W3\ T4> A V 31 K O 3C3, R.
S TAVTN'G heard many complaints of tho
£ i want of a Newspaper in this town, (le
lie conducts! in a gentlemanly like nruincr,)
th undertigne 1 have been induced, by the
earnest solicittitions of many friends, to em
bark in ttie undertaking.
In assuming the duties consequent upon
such an enterprize, we fVeldeeply conscious
of the responsibility which will devolve up
on ns; and knowing, too, the diversity ot
she human mind, we cannot flatter ourselves
that we will be abl* to please all. But,
so far as our humble anilities extend, we
will at all times be found striving to elevate
ttie standard of truth and correct moral
principles. It will be our object to ad
vance the prosperity of the Eastern section
of our Estate, abounding, as it does, in so
many natural advautnges, and. as a necessa
ry consequence, especially to promote thp
interest of our own town. Our aim will In
to render our paper useful and valuable to
ail c! asses of tbe community—in short Lit
erature, Useful Information, Agriculture.
Foreign and Domestic Intelligence, will each
recetvo a due portion of otir attention.
In icgard to Politics, we deem it neces
sary to say, that we shall give the general
Political intelligence of the whole country
while, at thes une time, as conductors ol a
Free Press, we will fearlessly, and without
favor or infection, advocate and support all
such metisufcs as will, in our opinion, pro
mote our general prospeiity as a people, and
the perpetuity of oar rights and liberties.
Our pape r will be purely Republican, as
practised by those great Apostles of Liberty,
JEFFERSON and MADISON —prefering
them as our guide, rather than the nkw-
LiuHT, self-stilld Democratic Republi
cans of the ptesent day. We are --strict
constructionists” ul the Federal Compact,
ami shall, therefore, oppose all schemes ol
Internal improvement, except by the States
themselves, as a part of that “American
System” which has proved so ruinous to the
South, and which was attempted to be fas
tened upon us, under that most plausible
and specious pretext, the “GENERAL
WELFARE.” Believing, as we do, that
it is the duty of every good citizen to cher
ish with jealous care the “Union of the
Status, and the Sovereignty of the
States,” and as this cannot be done without
a strict adherence to the Constitution itself,
we shall not lie sparing in our denunciations
of the attempts which are and h ive been
made by the late as well as the present Ad
ministration, to control, not only the mon
ied facilities of the Government, but ot the
entire country. With regard to the ques
tion which isuow agitating the country rela
tive to the Currency, ive now, unhesitating
ly declare our hostiiity.to the rhrice-reje-t
--e’d Snli-Treasury System, tending as it does
iu our opinion, to an increase of Executive
power, which has already been claimed and
exercised to an alarming extent, in
stances than one, if not by the present in
cumbent, liv his immediate predecessor, in
whose “footsteps” lie is endeavoring to tread.
We expect to encounter many perils, ma
ny adverse winds ; yet aided by the strong
breath ot public favor and support, the ttude
winds ot our world must watt usclear ol our
troubles—we dare raise our anchor, unfurl
our sheets, and venture boldly upon our new
snd untried course. What shoals and quick
aands, what rocks and hidden perils await us
••alas, we know not!” Lst us but clear the
harbor and get fairlv “under way,” then we
will fear nothing. Nor is this the vain boast
made when danger is yet to the distance.
It isonr firm determination, made after se
rious thought, aDd we ighing well the diffi
culties we are to meet with.
The Chronicle will he issued is early as
the necessary materials can be obtained
from New York, which will be in Decem
ber or early in January next. It will be
printed on a large imperial sheet, contain
ing twenty-four columns, with entire new
type, and will not be surpassed in beauty by
any paper in the Southern country.

PROSPECTUS
OF THE
SOUTHERN LiTERAnV MESSENGER.
ffllllS is a monthly Magazine, devoted
i- chiefly to Literature, but occasion
ally finding room also for articles tha. fall
within the scope of Science ; and not pro
cssing an entire disdain of tasteftrl selections,
though its matter has been, as it will con
tinue to be, in the main, original.
Parly Politics, and controversial Theol
"gy, as far as possible, are jealously exclu
ded. They are sometimes so blended with
discussions in literature or in moral sci
ence, otherwise unobjectionable, as to gain
admittance for the sake of the more valu
able matter to which they adhere: bu*
whenever that happens they are incidental,
only, not primdry. They are dross, tolera
ted only because it cannot well lie severed
from the sterling ore wherewith it is incor- (
por tied.
Reviews ami Critical Notices, occu
pv their due space in the work: and it is the
Editor’s aim that they should have a three
fold tendency—to convey, in a condensed
form, «uch valuable truths or interesting in
cidents as are embodied in the works re
viewed, —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 lie
burned, In this age of publications that by
their variety and multitude, distract and o
verwhehtm every undiscrimiuatiiig student,
impartial criticism, governed by the views
just mentioned, is one of the most inesti
mable and indispensable of auxiliaries to him
wiio does wish to discriminate.
Essays and Tales, having in view utility
or amusement, or both; Historical sket
ches—au I Reminisencks ol events too min
ute for History, yet elucidating it, and
heightuing its interest—may lie regarded
as forming th p staple of tlu- work. And
of indigenous Poetry, enough is publish
ed—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
demand such a work—and not one alone,
but manyt The public mind is feverish
and irritated still, from recent political
strifes: The stilt, assu isivc influence of Lit
erature is needed, to allay th it lever, and
soothe that irritation. Vice and iollv are
rioting abroad:—They should he driven by
indignant rebuke, or lashed by ridicule, in
to their tilting haunts. Ignorance lords it
over an immense proportion “t our | eo
pie:—Every spring should be set in motion,
to arouse the enlightened, and to inn is>-
their number; so that the great enemy ol
popular government may no longer brood,
like a portentous cloud, over the destinies
of our country. And to accompli.-h all
these ends, what more powerful agent can
lie e.3ployed, than a periodical on the plan
of the Messenger; if that plan be but car
ried out in practice?
The South peculiarly requires such an
agent. In all the Union, south ol Washing
ton, there are but two Literary periodicals!
Northward of that city, (here arc probably
at least twenty-five or thirty ! Is this con
trast 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,
talents and taste, we may justly claim, at
least, an eipiuldy with our brethren »nd a
domestic, institution exclusively onr own,
beyond all doubt, a!ford- us, if >ve choose,
twice ttie leisure for reading and writing
which they enjoy.
It was from a deep sense of this local want
that the word Southern wa; engrafted on
this periodical: and not with any design to
nourish local prejudices, or to advocate sup
posed local interests. Far fro.tn any such
thought, it is the Editor's fervent wish, to
see the North and South bound endearing
ly together, forever, in the silken bands of
mutual kindness and affection. Far from
meditating host} ty to the north, he has al -
ready drawn, and he hopes hereafter to
draw, much of his choicest matter thence:
and happy indeed will ItQ deem himself,
should lits pages, by making each region
know the other better contribute in any cs
sentia! degree to dispel the lowering clouds
that now "threaten the peace of both, and
to brighten and strengthen the sacred ties
of fraternal love.
The Southern Literary Messenger has
new been inexistence four years—the pre
sent No commencing the fifth volume.
How far it has acted out the ideas here ut
tered, i« not for the Editor to say; he be
lieves. however, that it tails not turther short
of them, that) human weakness usually
makes Practice fall short of Theory.
