March 1* PROSPECTUS. WILL be published in Augusta, Ga.. on th» e. Saturday ol October, 1839, the a weekly journal, to be called number of “ THE SOUTHERN PIONEER » Devoted to the Literature, Institutions and Am mems of the South.-CAorfe, Wyatt Rb£. FnT*' rite South is the natural home of Literature Sfoa — ever been so Homer strolled and sung under ,h„ ‘ iaS ot the fervid sun ; Italy and Greece haveT “ first weakening into being as civilized natio n f >< iff % their Poets and Orators. The Literary nV ff ° rded bends his step to the South of Europe a«h f m e '; er vored shrine; while there, fond metm’ries tb- '" 0 * 1 J?' mind, of the epic strains of Homer, the soothin 8 * 0^3 sures of the Mantnan Swan, the exultm^j,,^/ 1 }?- race.nnd the bttmg sarcasms of Juvennl Wh U later times reelings to the memory of the fearfiu of Dante, the epic measures of "the madman T« n8 the soft strains of Petrarch, and the plensi,J Boccacio. And while thus fondly recalling? ™ a?eso t all these, he remembers that they drew them from the fervid sun of Italy and Greece" He feeu'° n the balmy air he breathes, in the brilliam heavet form the canopy above him, in the brilliancy of th eS un •X tS * h ? t f' OW m ’ha horizon, and in the tints ,ha t t £ air and clime spread over the earth, the inspiration that Such food'for Inspiration does the Literary pilgrim find on the classic shores of Italy and Greece der the fervid sun of the South. ' And is it a kindred chine in the Western Hemisphere presents no parallel to this ? Do the same sun, the same bril hanev of the canopy of clouds, the same glorious sun fosn’irarinnT 6 , " ,ts ' , J’ on ,he landscape, afford no inspiration here ? A wilder, a more abrupt scenerv hei"r bd nM r b TL’ Speak in "™-‘9 to the r beholders. While with these an Italian softness of landscape upon the Ashley, the Savannah, and oth cLmT" 6 S,ream!! ’ waterfalls, and streaming fn ’ rT e n’ Wl ' ere ‘heir worshipper! m those who dwell among them. And do all these af ford no inspiration ? They do inspire; they have spo. ken in the eloquent tones of the Rutledge and Pmck neys of the Revolution ; they have spoken in the po lished pages ot a Gnmke; they are now speaking in Vi e s . ,ra ' ns Charlton, a Gilman, Wilde, Simmes Meek, Butt, Pendleton, Ticknor, Wittick.in the faith-' tul scenes of a Longstreet, and in the vivid sketches of Strong, Ware, Morrow, and Moragne. Ave, more they are speaking in the thousand of the voting, who east hack to the mountains, the waterfalls and the streams their inspiration in living tones, and whose wild songs through rare publications, sometimes startle the public ear. They do speak in these thousand who with a proper medium for communicating their thoughts to the public, would electrify the world by their eloquent [ones Nor does the South lack for inspiration in her historic incidents. A brief reference in the mind of each individual to the striking incidents in the early history of each of the Southern States, will convince him that they afford rich materials from which the rea dy pen may draw for amusement and instruction. But more than all these do the leisure and opportunities for mental cultivation that her domestic institutions afford her citizens, present strong grounds of belief that the South is destined to become the centre of Literary in terest. As this leisure and this opportunity for mental cultivation find no parallel in any other country, it is natural to believe that the South is destined to become to the world in anew era what Greece was to the world in the old. This is our profession of faith. We believe, in a word, that no part of the world has greater literary re sources within herself, or is better calculated from her natural scenery, the peculiarities of her climate, the leisure of her citizens, and her general advantages, to become on eminently literary community than the Southern States of this confederacy. This is the plat form on which we intend to raise a Weekly Journal, to which Southern writers shall delight to contribute, and which the whole South shall be proud to claim as its own. Believing most firmly that success will crown our exertions, no effort will be spared to draw from ev ery portion of the South, contributions upon every sub ject, which, while they shall be of a high character, shall ever range From grave to gay, from lively to severe. We believe that the institutions of the South are founded in the immutable laws of the God of Nature. We believe that on them will lie built a fabric of glory and greatness to the South. We believe especially that they afford to the Southern States the means of out stripping the rest of the world in their literary career. And we know that these are times of peculiar danger to these institutions; we know that they are now nt tncked by die insidious foe us well bv the open enemy. We shall therefore place our Journal as a sentinel on the watch-tower of Southern Institutions, ever watch ful for attacks, and ever ready to repel them. We delight in the amusements and holidays of the South. We glory in them ns fit amusements for a peo ple generous and brave, quirk in their impulses, and shunning sluggishness We delight in trie gun and chase. We hail merry old Christmas and its cheerful sports as old friends and true, setting the brow free from care, making the bosoms of men to glow with cheerful and friendly emotions, calling friends to the festive hoard and to the exchange of kind thoughts and sentiments, and sending all away to run in joyfulness their course of duty until the invitations to joy ami mirth are again renewed. The pages of the Journal will, therefore, be enlivened with lively chronicles of exploits in the sports of the field, and with spirited sketches ot the lull and frolic that merry old Christmas lets loose upon us Wc will also, in order to please all, give a weekly abstract of the most important news of the day. And fur the fair practisers upon the Pianoor Guitar, shall occasionally embellish our pages with ori ginal and selected Music. It is a fortunate circumstance for the interest of a work of this nature, that the field of Literature at the South is, as yet, comparatively, untrodden. The Lit erary resources of the South, great as they are ac knowledged to be, are as yet, comparatively undevelo ped Every grove, river, dale and mouniau , has yet its tale to tell We therefore send our Journal forth as a Pioneer to gather the riches of this new country.— From every hill, dale, river and mountain, he will re turn laden with rich stores. These stores, original and varied in their character, as they must be, he will be proud to display for the amusement and instruction of his readers. We ask for him a kind reception at the hands of all friends of the cause in whicii he has em barked. Having thus detailed the plan of onr future opera tions, we commend our hebdomedal to (we trust,) the favorable notice of the Southern public. We devote ourselves to the work as our profession. On the verge of manhood, mid of a liberal education, we had a pro fession to choose; after mature deliberation, we have chosen this, because we delightin the employment,and are devoted to the cause for the furtherance of which the work is established. No common obstacle, there fore, will turn its aside from onr course. But having chosen the Editing of the PIONEER, and through it the promotion of Southern Literature, as the work of our lives, we shall relinquish ii only with our breath. And while we commend our sheet to the favor of the public generally, we commend it particularly to the kind charities of tfiat band who have linked themselves together for the advancement of the cause to which we devote the work. They have acted w ith us in the past; we trust they will act with us in the future. No exer tions will be spared to make the work such an one as they will look upon with delight. It may be well to add that the intervening time be tween this date and the day of publication will be spent in collecting materials for the work. The PIONEER will be printed on an imperial sheek in quarto form, and will contain a greater quantity of reading matter than any work of the kind publishedm the South. Terms. —Five Dollars per annum, payable on the is suing of the first number. Persons sending us ten sub scribers, inclosing Fifty Dollars, will be entided toaco py gratis.
