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. JACK HARDMAN, RICHARD RUE MOONEY. TERMS.—Three Dollars per annum, piayable invariably in advance- Irwiuton, Alu. Oct, 10, Ao3o, 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. CONDITIONS. 1. The Southern Literary Messenger is published in monthly numbers, of 64 large superroyal octavo pages each, on the best of paper, and neatly covered, at $5 a year— payable in advance. 2. <>r five new subscribers, by sending theit names and S2O at one time to the edi tor, will receive their copies for one year, for that sum, ot at $4 lor each. 3.
