FLOSPECTUS of the St. JOSEPH TIMES
The undersigned editor and proprietor of the
“ at. JOSEPH TIMES,” in entering upon the
publication of the Fourth Volume.of that paper,
renews his oft expressed thanks to a generous
public for its patronage and indulgence, The
cheering approbation of valued friends, has alone
.sustained him ainid peculiar embarassments inci
dent to a period of great monetary distress. The
■* Times” are yei so out of joint, that he cannot
ask or expect golden-opinions, but he would be
pleased to receive from his former. Patrons, some
“token” of their approval, in the shape of a
“Life and Trust” or “Union” Bank bill. To that
portion of the Florida public, who are not sub
scribers to the “TIMES,” he contents himself by
saying—there is a light ’among them, which the
darkness comprehendeth not. Yet however limit
ed and local ntay be the support given to this
paper, the undersigned will not flag in his zeal
and efforts to promote the -common glory and
welfare of—
“ FLORIDA” — or,c and indivisible.
TVie influence of the Press in giving tone to
Morality, Literature, Commerce and sound Politi
cal doctrines, is felt and acknowledged in all
classes of society, and % tlie pledge is here given,
that the “ TIMES” will continue to be, as it has
I been heretofore —a Beacon , to point the way to
j Heaven—to Knowledge—to Wealth and Social
Happiness.
Complaints have not unfrequently reached the
undersigned, as to the irrigular recepti nos this
Paper. Such steps have been taken and remon
strances made as will probably correct the evil.

F“ SoSiMSCTUS.gr. the” POLITICAL REFOR
MER—Br THKoriiiLU; Fisk —The great po
litical contest now waging in this counttry, is one
that involveutke dearest rights of man. It is a
struggle between the friecds of federalism, the
advocates of abolition, the champions of priviledged
fraud, on the one hand, and the friends of freedom,
republican equality and political justice on the
other. Uis a contest of too vast importance to
admit of neutrality or time-serving expediency; its
momentous consequences demand the uneasing
energies of a free people.
To endeavour to perpetuate our glorious institu
tions, to hand them down unimpaired to those who
shall succeed us, will be the primary object of the
Political Reformer. To this end the editor will
wage an uncompromising warfare with the friends
of a National Bank, a high protective Tariff, all
schemes of Internal Improvement by the General
Government, and above all and more than all,
with the incendiaries of our land, who rally under
the black banner of Abolition. We shall zealously
support re-election of Martin Van Buren to
the Presidency of this pgoud Republic, and equally
zealously and untiringly shall oppose the designs
in progress to make the federal abolitionist, Gen.
Harrison, the first officer in this natron. We
should esteem his success as the most blighting
calamity which could be fid this happy land.
Co*a no as. —The Political Reformer will be
published weekly until tire next Presidential
election, at the almost precedented low price of
Fifty Cents for a single copy; eleven copies for
Five Dollars; twenty ttoree copies for Ten Dollars;
payable in every instance in advance.

ratHF, HAMBURG JOURNAL—A semi-weekly
Paper—Devoted to Foreign and Domestic
News, the Markets, Literature, Science, &c.—
Yanitonovsii & Mcllay, Editors and Publishers.
The present flourishing trade, and the growing
importance of Hamburg in a commercial point of
view, fully authorize the establishment of such a
Newspaper as the publishers design to make of
the Journal. No place of the same population in
the Union, and certainly none where so large an
amount of business is transacted, is without such a
vehicle of trade aud intelligence. Every effort will
be made to render tlie Journal entirely acceptible
to the liberal and enterprising community, for
whose patronage it presents itself. Political facts
will be given lo the public as matter of news; but
political speculations, with their train of sophistry,
misrepresentation, slander aud abuse, will be care
fully excluded from our columns. Particular at
tention will tie given to the Mate of live markets at
homeand abroad; and we shall furnish regularly
corrected lists of the prices current at Hamburg,
Augusta aud Charleston, as well as copious ex.
tracts from the Trade Lists of the Northern cities.
Our extensive mail facilities will give us intelli
gence from every part of the Union at the latest
possible dates; and the means they will also afford
us of transmitting our paper speedily to every post
office throughout the South and Southwest, will
make the Journal useful and valuable lo the busi.
ness men ol these sections of our great country,
aud we shall look with confidence for patronage
at their hands.
.We shall endeavor to find a place in our columns
for every thing of interest to the business classes
ot the people and the community generally ; and,
in short, no expenses or labor shall be spared to
render I lie Journal a truly valuable paper, aud ■
in every way worthy of the favor and support we
now soJitit for it.
Terms,—Bs per annum, in advance. Tbe Jour
nat will be printed twice a week, with good type,
on beautiful white paper of an extra imperial.

Prospectus of the emigrant and old
COUNTRYMAN.—The publication of the
New Series of tile Emigrant and Old Country man
was commencedtm Wednesday, March 11th, 1840
The character of this paper winch has now been
esiablished ten years anti a half, first as the “Old.
Countryman,” and then, after an union with the
“Emigrant,” under its present title, is so well
known that it might he deemed almost unnecessa: i
at this time to publish a prospectus, but as the
publication- of the paper was, for reasons before
stated, suspended ftom November 27 till March
11th, and the Editorial duties now devolve on
other hands, it may wot be thought improper to
give a brief statement of the principles on which
it is conduced, and of its principal feytures.
The first of thc:;e is to furnish emigrants and their
families with record of recent events in the land
where their early days were spent, to which,
however devoted they may be to that of their
adoption, their fond recollections will frequently
revert, and for whose welfare they must naturally
feel an interest. In the attainment of this end, a
large space is devoted to local incidents, arranged
under lour and istinct heads, England, Ireland, Scot
land and Wales, thereby enabling the nativesofthe
grand divisions of the British Empire to turn at
once to tlve news from their respective homes.
Our selections are made-as varied and extensive as
the country itself is; embracing every portion of
it, and neglecting nor omittiug anything that we
think will interest our readers from even'}’ section-
The news from the Metropolis forms another
department, and consists in a concise statement of
the most striking recent events in that great city.
The portion devoted to general ne\ys will be
found full, containing the latest and most impor
tant information of national or public interest,
more especially that relating to the domestic
interests and foreign relations of Great Britain
which at this period are of the greatest possible
interest. Fo sessing the most ample means of
getting information, we shall furnish our readers
with most copious and ils. The proceedings of
Parliament will be fully reported or duly noticed
omitting no debates or proceedings of an inter
esting eh voter. Ano'’ cr feature of our paper
cons'; ts rn giving a list of bankrupts, lists of steer
age p. tigers, and a record of deaths, carefully
collected, with Irict impartiality. In addition to
the more weighty and grave matter, we shall infuse
•me ofthe “spice of life,” giving articles of n
lighter character, such as varieties, anecdotes,
pn ry, sporting and police intelligence. Our
politics are strictly neutral; not that we have tin
opinions of our own, but that in a paper intended
f the information and amusement of all, We feel
it our duty to give the opinions and record the
doings of all patties. This we shall do with strict
undeviating impartiality, leaving our readers to
form their own judgments, ‘the affairs of the
Colonies will receive a due portion of our atten
tion. Whatever relates to their present situation
or future prospects will be noticed.
To avertisers our paper offer a very desirable
medium. Its circulation extends over every sec
tion of the United States, to all parts of Canada
and the North American Colonies, to the IVest
Indies and South America. a p 30-92.

PROSPECTUS For the 3rd Vol of the Augusta*
Mirror, IV T Thompson, Editor.—Contem
plating a material improvement ofthe Mirror, on
the commencement of ffce ensuing volume, we
have already Cofftfftefified making the necessary
arrangement for that purpose, and as we look with
confidence to our friends and patrons for encour
agement, we have determined to give them this
early notice of our design.
Though a semi-monthly issue was deemed to be
the most expedient in the commencement of the
publication of the Mirror,—-when the ground
which it occupied; being exclusively devoted to
literature, was yet untried, and when our domes
tic resources were yet unknown—we feel that the
time has now arrived when a weekly publication
is demanded. Entertaining this conviction, we
have resolved to issue the ensuing volume weekly,,
and to make such improvements in the appearance
and plan ofthe work, at will render it still more
worthy the liberal patronage of the southern pub
lic.
Firmly believing that the only means requisite to
place our domestic literature upon an equality
with that of any other section of the union, is the
establishment of a literary medium at home, of suf
ficient standing and .character to divert it into its
proper channel—we are resolved to render the
Mitror equal in appearance with any of the North
ern journals of the same kind, and if the friends of
southern literature will unite in giving it the repu
tation which southern genius and southern talents
are so eminently capable of importing to its pages,
we doubt not that we shall be able to render the
work much more acceptable to the southern public.
With a view of accomplishing this design we
shall secure the assistance of an able adjunct in the
editorial department, and shall spare neither pains
nor expense to give character and interest to the
work.
No material change will be made to the plan or
arrangement of the Mirror, which will still be de.
voted to general literature, except the introduction
of a critical department for the review of new
works, which will be in the hands of a gentleman
of approved taste and mature judgment. The Mir
ear will be printed on superior paper, with hand
some new type, and “will be executed with
the strictest regard to neatness and tasle itt
its typography. Each number will be er.velloped
in a neatly printd cover, entitled “Augusta Mirror
News Sheet,’’ comprising four closely printed
pages, in which will be given the news of the
week, foreign and domestic, carefully compiled
rom an extensive exchange, together with all the
matter of interest usually contained in an ordinary
weekly newspaper.
By this arrangement the readers of the Mirror
will, besides being supplied with a volume of 416
quarto pages oi choice literature, receive as
much news matter in the course of the year as is
contained in most of the newspapers of the day,
and all for the additional Charge of only two dollars
to imr present subserption.price.
We sincerely hope the above plan for our third
volume will meet the approbation of every friend
of southern literature. We have always considered
the Mirror, embracing as it does in its design, the
broad repvmu. ~c ,„ Iter I>es , a(1 , ,
our infant literature. More ui.v-.Uc.j ,1—
character of its contents than the graver and more
•Unified magazine, ranging a9 it does from the
lighter to the more elevated branches of literary
composition.
“From grave to gay, from lively to severe.”
it is certainly best suited to the tastes of the
greatest number; and while it affords equally
wholsome and refreshing draughts for the well
read mind, it attracts and lures the young to
drink of the Parnassian stream. We have aimed
in the adoption ofthe contemplated improvements
to place the Mirror upon an equal footing with
our northern contemporaries in regard to cheap
ness ; and now, all that we ask is a liberal share
of that patronage extended to them by our people,
and we pledge ourselves to render the Mirror
equally deserving their support.
