As this leisure nnd this opjioriunitv for mental cultivation find no parallel in anv other country it is natural to believe that the South is destined to l>eenme to the world in anew era w hat Greece was to the world in 'he old. This i.s our profess on of faith. We believe, in a word, that no p rt of the world has greater litcrarv re sources within herself, nr is better calculated from her natural scenery, the peculiarities of her climate, the leisure of her ci izcns, and her general advantages, to become an eminently literary community than the S 'titherii S ates of Ins confederacy. This is the plat, form on v hieli we itvend to raise a Weekly Jor-asi, to which Southern writers shall delight to and which the w hole South shall he proud to elaim ail its own. Believing most firmly thatsuccess will crown our exertions, no eff ■ t will he spared to draw ir„m ev er) portion of the S utth, contributions upon every suh jrc', w hiob, while they shall be of a high character, shall r\cr rtnge From grave to gay, from lively tp severe We believe that the in«ti'u:ions qf the South nre founded in the immutable laws of the,God ol Nature We believe 'hat on them w ill he built a fabric of glory nnd greatness to the South. We believe espcciallv that they afford to the Southern States the means of out stripping the rest of the world in their literary carter. Amt we know that these are times of peculiar danget to these institutions; we know that they are now id racked by 'lie insidious foe as well bv the openencmv We shall therefore place our Journal as a sentirjel (if. the w atch-tower of Southern Institutions, evtr wateij tul for attacks, and ever ready to repel them. We delight in the amusements and holidays of the South. We glory in them as fit anmsenienuqfQr a peo ple generous and brave, quick in their impulsee, ano shunning sluggishness We delight in tHe 'gun and chase. We had merry old Christmas Rfid.fi* cheerful sports as old friends and true, setting the Arow fe' t from care, making tile bosoms of men to glow witp cheerful and friendly emotions, calling friends to die festive board and to the exchange of kind thought.-tuiii semimen s, and sending all away to run in joyfulnew their course of duty until the invitations to joy sml ntir’h ate again renewed. The pages of the will, therefore, he enlivened with lively chronicles of exploits in the sports of the field, and with sp’gitcj! sketches of the fun and frolic that merry old Christmas lets loose upon us We will also, in order to please all give a weekly abstract of the most important news df the day. And for the fair practisrrs uj'on the Pianocir Guitar, shall occasionally embellish our pages with ori ginal aqd selected Music. It is a fortunate circumstance for the intaqaat of; work of this natute, that the field of Literature at tljlt South is. ns yet, comparatively, untrodden. The Lit erary resources of the South, great as they a';e «c --knowledged to be, are as yet. comparatively a*d"\#)q ped. Every grove, river, dale and mountain, ha- \f. its tale to tell We therefore send our Journal forth » a Pioneer to gather the riches of this new country.— From every hill, dale, river and mountain, he wib r<- turn liiden with rich stores. These stores, original and varied in their character, as they must be, he will proud to display for the amusement and instrucjjpn q; in®readers. We ask for him a kind reception at,)Se hands of all friends of the cause in which he haa am barked. Having thus detailed the plan of our fuhjre-opera | lions, we commend our hebdomcdnl to (we trust,) ths favorable notice of the Southern public. We devqjs ourselves to the work as out profession. On the verge of manhood, and ol a liberal education, we hud pro | session to choose; after mature deliberation, «e|j:a*e ! chosen this, because we delightitt the employment,W are devoted to the cause for tlie furtherance of vt-Mui i the work is established.

But having 1 chosen the Editing of the and through it the promotion of Sunhern Li erature, as the wyt* « our lives, we shall rehnouish it only with our qfrath.
