AMONG the numerous complaints with which the

PROSPECTUS.
NTJffT’ILL be published in Augusta, G»., on the first
I v Saturday ol October, 1339, the first number of
a weekly journal, to be called
“THE SOUTHERN PIONEER,”
Devoted to the Literature, Institutions and Amuse
ments of tha South.— Charles Wyatt Rice, Editor
The South is the natural home of Literature. She has
ever been so Homer strolled and sung under the rays
of the fervid sun ; Italy and Greece have, from their
first wakening into being as civilized nations, afforded
their Poets and Orators. The Literary pilgrim ever
bends his step to the South of Europe, as his most fa
vored shrine; while there, fond memories throng to his
mind, of the epic strains of Homer, the soothing mea
sures of the Mantuan Swan, the exulting odes of Ho
race, and the biting sarcasms of Juvenal. While in
ia'er times reelings to the memory of the fearful s’rains
of Dante, tho epic measures of the madman Tasso,
the soft strains of Petrarch, and the pleasing images of
Boccacio. And while thus fondly recalling to memory i
all the=e, ho remembers that they drew their inspiration
from the fervid sun of Italy and Greece. He feels in
the balmy air he breathes, in the brilliant heavens that
form the canopy above him, in the brilliancy of thesun
sets that glow in the horizon, and in the tints that the
air and climo spread over the earth, the inspiration that
formed and developed the genius of those whom he now
so fondly regrets.
Such food for inspiration does the Literary pilgrim
find on the classic shores of Italy and Greece, and un
der the fervid sun of the South. And is it possible that
a kindred clime in the Western Hemisphere presents
no parallel to this ? Do the same sun, the same bril-
liancy of the canopy of clouds, the same glorious sun
sets, the same rich tints upon the landscape, afford no
inspiration hore ? A wilder, a more abrupt scenery,
i than Italv or Greece can boast, speak in living tones to
i their beholders. While with these an Italian softness
of landscape upon the Ashley, the Savannah, and oth
er favorite streams, glorious waterfalls, and streaming
cascades, nr# every where claiming their worshippers
in those who dwelt 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 Pinck
neys, of the Revolution; they have spoken in the po
lished pages of a Grimke; they are now speaking in
the strains of a Charlton, a Gilman, Wilde, Simmes,
Meek, Butt, Pendleton, Ticknor, Wittick.in the faith
ful scenes of a Longstreet, and in the vivid sketches of
Strong, Ware, Morrow, and Moragne. Aye, more,
they are speaking in the thousand of the young, who
cast back 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 no speak in these thousand who with
a proper medium for communicating their thoughts to
the public, would electrify the world by their eloquent
tones 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 (he early
history of each of the Southern States, will convince
him that they afford rich materials from which the rea
dy pen may draw foramusement and instruction. Big
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 wa3 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 cirizens, and her general advantages, to
become an 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 he 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 at
tacked by the insidious foe as 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 as fit amusements for a peo
ple generous and brave, quick in their impulses, and
shunning sluggishness We delight in the 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 board and to the exchange of kind thoughts and
sentiments, and sending all away to run in jovfulness
their course of duty until the invitations to joy and
mirth are again renewed. The pages of the Journal
will, therefore, he enlivened with lively chronicles of
exploits in the sporis of the field, and with spirited
sketches of the fun and frolic that merry old Christmas
lets loose upon us Wo will also, in order to please all,
give a weekly abstract of the most important news of
the day. And for 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 mountain, has yet
its tale to tell. We ther fore send our Journal forth as
a Pionelr 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 he, he will be
proud to display for the amusement and instruction ot
his readers. We a=k for him a kind reception at the
hands of all friends of the cause in which he has em
barked.
Having thus delnilcd the plan of our 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, and of a liberal education, we had a pro
fession to choosu; after mature deliberation, we have
chosen this, because we delightiu the employment,and
are devoted te the cause for the furtherance of which
the work is established. No common obstacle, there
fore, will turn us aside from our 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 relinouish it 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 ot lhat band who have linked themselves
together lor the advancement of the cause to which we
devote the work. They have acted with 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.
1 he PIONEER will be printed on an impctial sheet,
in quarto torm, and will contain a greater quantity of
reading matter than any work of the kind published in
j 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 entitled to a co
py gratis.
HiT Agents will be allowed the usual per ccntage.

PATENT MACHINE SPREAD
STRENGTHENING PLASTER.
JN the preparation of these very Superior and Ele
gant Plasters, no cost or trouble is spared to ensure
possible degree of perfection, in point of utility, elegance
and comfort. They are spread of various sizes on kids
of the best quality, by Machinery, invented expressly for
he purpose, (which gives them an advantage over every
plaster heretofore offered to the public) as by this means
tl. v can be made of a uniform thickness, and free
fro the inequality of surface which frequently preve nts
otht sfrom adhering, or renders them irritating and
| uncomfortable, an objection, which it is impossible to
avoid by the usual method of spreading Piasters
Th'- composition used in these Plasters, is carefully
prepared at a lower temperature, from a combination o
valuable Resinous Gums, with the ad-rnixture of sever
al choice aromatics, entirely separated from all extra
neous and irritating particles; and from its peculiar
1 combination of highly strengthening, anodyne und
slightly stimulating properties it affords a pleasant and
effectual remedy, in all cases of pain in the side and
breast, weakness or oppression of the chest; pain or weak
ness of the back or loins ; Also, in the sense of sinking
and faitness at the pit of the stomach, accompanying
Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint. 111 Rhematic, or pain
ful aficctions of the limbs or joints, their Anodyne and
Stimulating properties render them particularly benefi
cial. In 'Colds, Coughs, or Asthmatic Affections, they
will be found to give immediate and permanent relief.
Persons who from sedentary habits, or other causes, ap
predisposed to affections of the lungs, w ill find these
11 «trrs an effectual security against those pulmonary
attacks which prove but two frequently, (when nrgler'
ed) the precursory symptoms of Consumption , and in
deed in a climate like ours, where colds snd Coughs air
an almost unfailing consequence of the sudden changes
to wnich all are subject, every one at all liable to suffer
from the influence of these causes would find the great
est possible security in having his chest and lungs pro-!
terfed by one of these invnlunhle Plasters. j
_To children suffering from HTiooping Cough, or 1
Colds affecting the chest or lungs, the sedative andario-'
dyne properties of these Plasters, afllird signal relief.
These Plasters being spread much more rapidly ns l
well as better, by ,1/u. hinrry, are sold much lower than 1
I lastersspread in the usual method.
