ENLARGEMENT OF THIS TELEGRAPH. Defat* the Daily Telegraph IIIJ been four months Wt aXlatvnce, we were enabled to enlarge it, to die extent of four additional columns on a super-royal *i.eet. It is indeed a source of niuch.gratificatioti to us to Le enabled to do so; as, although the vast increase of ad. vertiaing patronage, as well as the swelling of our subscrip tion list, proves tbat we afforded satisfaction, even incur late dv,-;rfish dimensions, yet we are -often -cramped and obliged to exclude matters of interest, tiecause of their length. V.’e cannot conclude this communication, without return ing oar thanks for the liberality of the citizens of Sav.-m ---nah, who have generously afforded us die means of pub lishing an independent paper. We stand on ground that we cherish—we dwell in a city that we love—and that we ere not ungrateful, we will lose no opportunity of showing.

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. PETEU W.

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.

Hamburg, S.C., April 7, 1840. may 11 3GI 1 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. fTIHE NEW YORKER.—New volume—Price -**- reduced to the cash standard—Entirely new Type, &c.—The publishers of the New Yorker respectfully announce to the public that the Seventh (annnal) Volume of their Folio or come mon newspaper form, and the Ninth (semi-annual) Volume oi tkeir double Quarto or octavo edition lor preservation and binding will be issued on Saturday the 21st day of March.

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. ffj* terms for the third volume, $5 in advance —Any person obtaining five subscribers will be entitled to a sixth copy.
