Liberty and the Umox forever.—The principles est
Washing tor, Jeffersox and Jacxsor.
fN proposing to establish, in tire city of New Or
leans, anew paper under the a.. jve title, we are
vneouraged by i.ie glowing an-J magnificent prospects
which seem to hover around this migcty Emporium ot
the West, pointing as destinies to a summit ol com
mercial grandeur, to whic.l no other citv in the world
| can ever expect to rc-acn. Nor are these prospects |
I confined alone to New Orleans. When we take into !
view the numerous, wilt-spread, and extended arms
of the noble Mississippi, winning themselves through
an extent o. country so immensely vast; embracing
uie most fertile ana productive region perhaps in the i
known world; with a climate and scenery as deli'-ht-
I iui as nature could form them; and a population of-
I hardy, industrious freemen, increasuig with every
] hour of the day, we do not hesitate in declaring our
opinion, that tiie VV fst is destined, at an early day,
to be one of the finest, the noblest sections of country
on the faee of the giobe ; and ihar. New Orleans, as
a commercial city, may, at no veiy distant period,
claim tiie proud appellation of Mistress of the
World.
With such afield, then, as is spread before us. we
cannot but feel conscious of our success in the impor
tant iabors which we are about to undertake. Loca
ted, as we shall be, at the general centre of the almost
entire commercial business of the “■ Great lVest,” and
designing that our paper shall embrace all intelligence
of importance, of the United States and of Foreign
Governments, it will be found especially interesting
and useful io every class of our follo w citizens through
out the W estern country.
The Great Western will be devoted mainly to
Commerce, will support the interests of Agriculture,
and will take its political position and plant its stand
ard upon the broad parapet o {Democracy's it will also
extend its notice to the interests of Mechanics, and to
City News, <!yc.
Commerce. —The larger portion of this paper will
he strtctly commercial. Alt intelligence of importance
of this character, both domestic and foreign, vviii be
summed up at as eariy a moment as possible, so as to
aiford our mercantile patrons every description of
news which they can desire, under this head.
Agriculture. —While every other branch of
industry in the United States is receiving fresh and
encouraging impulses for perseverance, this, most
important of ail, seems to Hag behind the general
march of improvement and prosperity; and, instead
of being placed at the head of our general national
policy, and receiving that fostering care and protection
to which it is so pre-eminently entitled, is left to grope
its way, simply by the dint of that perseverance and
unwearied industry so characteristic of our hardy
countrymen.
It will be our especial care to sustain the interests
of this class of our follow citizens.
Politics.— This department of our paper is one in
which every class of our ci’izens is interested. Under !
this head we sh il give the general political iuteiii- ,
gence of the whole country; while we, as the con
ductors of a public journal, are determined, without
fear, favor, or aflucti -n, to support, with ail our zeal,
sucii measures of policy as alone will tend, in our
opinion, to the promotion of our general prosperity as I
a people, the perpetuation of our iiberlies, and our -
beloved Union.
This paper, theresi >re, will be purely Democratic I
in its principles; having for its object the diffusion oi l
equal rights, eqv.il blessings, and equal burthens , there
by promoting the general happiness of the people;
and to this end wili all our energies be di eeted.
With regard to the great questions of policy which
are now agitating the people of the United States,
respecting the currency, we unhesitatingly declare our
entire preference of the Independent Treasury Sys
tem, from our belief of its strict constitutionality, and,
in its tendency, better calculated to promote the gene
ral prosperity of all classes, than any ether which, in
our view, can be conceived.
We are strict, constructionists of the Federal Con
stitution, and shall always oppose those splendid
schemes, or 1 American Systems’ of monopoly, which
have ever characterised the policy of the Federal
opposition, recognising no implied interpretations of
that instrument, and believing that the ‘ GENERAL
WELFARE’ of every portion of our wide-spread
confederacy, depends on a strict adherence to its plain
and straightforward meaning, we shall not be sparing
in our expositions and denunciations of those daring
attempts which have and are now being made by
the reckiess and aspiring leaders of the Federal
Party, to rend asunder tins glorious Charter of
our rights and liberties, and rear, upon its ruins a
splendid aristocracy of wealth and power.
Earnestly advocating, therefore, as we shall always
do, these great ami fundamental principles of our go
vernment, which were conceived by a virtuous and
patriotic ancestry while struggling for the rights and
liberties of mankind, vve shall, in all cases, give our
support, for public offices, to such men as vve are
assured shall have the patriotism, talents, firmness
and disposition to sustain and carry out those princi
ples successfully. With all our zeal and ability,
therefore, we shall advocate the re-election of MAR
TIN VAN BUiiEN, for the next Presidential
term, with the fullest confidence in his exalted taients.
integrity and patriotism, convinced that upon his suc
cess depends, in a very great measure, the firm and
lasting establishment of those glorious principles of our
revolution, so admirably acted upon by Washington,
Jefferson, Madison and Jackson. And for the
second office m the gift of the American people, we

Devoted to the Literature, Institutions and Amuse-
HiClluS ot tiie £>Ovlui,

f gMIE South is the natural home of Literature.
B Sue has ever been so. Homer strolled and
sung under ttie rays of the fervid sun. Italy and
Greece nave, lr ir. their first wakening into being as
; civilized iicUiuiss, afforded their Poets and Orators.—
The Literary p'igrim ever bends his step :o the South
of Europe, as Ins most favored shrine; white liieie,
fond memories throng to hi? mind, of tiie epic strains
! of Homer, the s on.ing measures of the Mantuan
; Swan, the exulting odes ol Horace, and the bum ’ sar
! casms of Juvenal. White m later tunes reelings to
, the memory of the fearful strains of Dante, the epic
! measures ot the madman Tasso, the soli stiamsuf
| Petraich, and tne pleasing images oi Boccacio. Anti
I while thus fondly recalling to memory ad these, he re- j
j members that they drew their inspiration from the ;
fervid sun of Italy and Greece. He feeis in the baimv
■ air he breathes, in the brilliant heavens that form lire
j canopy above him, in the brilliancy of tiie sunset that
j glows in the horizon, aud in the tints that the air and
| ciune spread over the earth, the inspiration that formed
aud developed the genius of those whom fie now so
’ fondly regrets.
j Such food for inspiration does the Literary piforim
! find oil the classic shoies of Italy and Greece, and uti
j der the fervid sun of the South. And is it possible
that a kindred chine m the Western Hemisphere pre
sents no para lei to this ? Do the same sun. the s .me
b.liiiaucy of the canopy of the ciuuds, the same gfori
-1 ous sunsets, the same rich tints upon the landscape,
| afford no inspiration here? A wilder, a more abrupt
| scenery than italy or Greece can boast, speak in living
: tones to their beholders. AYhiie with these ail Italian
softness ol landscape upon the Ashley, the bavatuiah,
and other favorite streams, glorious waterfalls and
streaming cascades are everywhere claiming their
worshippers in those vv ho dwell among them. And do
all these aiford no inspiration ? They do inspire;
they have spoken in the eloquent tones of tiie Ruj
ledge and PiNcKNEVSof the Revolution ; they have
spoken in the polished pages of aGmaiKE ; they are
now speaking in the strains of a Charlton, a Gil
man, Wilde, Simms, Meek, Butt, Pendleton,
Ticknor, WiTTicSjin the faithful scenes of a Long
stkeet, and in the vivid sketches of a Strong,
Ware, Morrow and Moragne. Aye, more, they
are speaking in the thousand ot the young, who casi
back to the mountains, the waterfalls and the streams,
their'inspiration in living tones, and whose wild soids
th rough rare pu cheat ions, sometimes startle the public
i ear. They do speak in tiie.se thousands who with n
i proper medium for communicating tiieir thoughts to
the public, would electrify .he world by their eloquent
tones. Nor does the South lack for inspiration tn her
histone incidents. A brief reference in tiie mind ol
each individual to the striking incidents in the early
I history of each tiie Southern States, will convince
I lit'i’ that they afford rieli materials from which tlie
j re.lJy pen may draw for amusement and instrueti n
j But more than ail these do ihe leisure arid opportuiu-
I lies for mental cultivation that her domestic institution
afford her citizens, present strong grounds of belief
that the South is destined to become the centre of Lit
erary interest. As this leisure and this opportunity
for mental cultivation find no parallel in any other coun
try, 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 behove, 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 an eminently literary community than the
Southern States of this confederacy. This is the
platform on which vve intend to raise a Weekly Jour
nal, to which Southern writers shall delight to contri
bute, arid 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 every portion of the South, contr.hntion:.
upon every subject, whion, while they shall be of a
qigh character, shall ever range
‘ From grave to gay, from lively to evere.’
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 be built a fabric of glor;
and greatness to the South. We beiieve espbciallv
that they afford to the Southern States the means of
out-stripping the rest of the world in their literary ca
reer. Ami vve know that these are times of neeuliar
danger to these institutions; vve know that triev are
now attacked by the insidious foe as well as hv the
open enemy. We shall therefore place our Journal
as a sentinel on the watchtower of Southern institu
lions, ever watchful for attacks, and tycr rcadv to re
pel them.
We delight in the amusements and holidays o< the
South. We giory :n them as fit amusements fora
people 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 arid 1 rue, 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, arid sending ali away to run in im'iiil
tiess their course of duty until the invitations to joy
and mirth are again renewed. The pages of the
Pioneer will, therefore, be enlivened with lively
chronicles of exploits iri the sports of the field, and
with spirited sketches of the fun and frolic that merry
old Citrittmas lets loose upon us. We will also, in
order to please all, gve a weekly abstract of the most
important news of the day. rind for the fair practi
sers upon the Piano or Guitar, shall occasionally em
bellish our pages with original and suiec ed 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 undevel
oped. Every grove, river., dale and mountain, has yet
j its tab 1 to tell. We therefore send our Journal forth
j as a I’ioncer to gather the riches of this new coun ry.
| From every hill, dale, river and mountain, he wili re
j turn laden with rich stores. These stores, original
i and varied in their character, as they must be, he will
I 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 which he has
embarked.
Having thus detailed the plan of our future opera
tions, we commend our hebdomedal to (we trust,) the
favorable no!ice 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 choose ; after mature! deliberation we have
! chosen this, because we delight in the employment, and
are devoted to 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
life, we sliaii relinquish it only with our breath. The
public may therefore depend on having a permanent
work. And while we commend our sheet to the fa
vor of the public generally, we commend it particular
ly to the kind charities of that, band who have linked
themselves together for the advancement of the cause
!o which we devote the work. They have acted with
us in the past; we trust they will act with us in the
j future. No exertion 5 will be spared to make the work
such an one as they trill look upon with delight.
• It may be well to add that the intervening time be
tween this date and t he day of publication will be spent
in collecting material s lot the work.
The Pioneer will be printed on an Imperial sheet,
in quarto form, arid will contain a greater quantity of
reading matter than any work of the land published at
the South.

Dear Sir—l embrace the opportunity of ovpresai:*.:
to you civ. gratification at the success which has alien -
ed the administration of your valuable Pills in t!fi
section of counttv. It is a common fault with thos<
who compound and vend patent medicines to sav to
much in their favor, but from what i have seen of th
effect of your pills l do not Ihink they have, as ye
received unmerited praise. ‘-i.\ months ago they wei
almost enlircly unknown in this part of Virginia; the
art- now the most popular pills we. have. In dyspep-i
and sick headache, derangement of the biliary organ,
and obstinate constipation of the bowels, I know oi’ n
aperient mor<- prompt and efficacious.
Their mildness and certainty of action render them
a safe and efficient purgative for weakly individuals,
and may bo given at all times without any of thus:
injurious consequences that frequently result from tin
long continued use of calomel or blue [fills. On tin
whole, 1 consider them a valuable discovery.
Vuy respectfuliv.

Anew paper to be established in the City of Augusta.
DEVOTED ‘TO THE SCIENCE OF AtCSIC.
FjgAHE subscriber in appealing to a generous public
JL to sustain him in las undertaking, is aware e!
the numerous difficulties against wtuen ho will have tc
contend, but with a firm resolution, and a devoi critics?
to his business, he feels confident of overcoming
them.
The idea of starting a paper, at the south, devoted
entirely to the subject of music, may appear tv tv! air:
visionary, but with a little reflection, it wdl fie Dune
such a work is much neeited in litis section of our
.country. The north has gone far ahead of us in tins
useful and delightful science, and it is no doubt owing
to ihe existence of their numerous journals through
whose columns il. “ principles of .Music are siinnlLoi
and brought within ihe comprehension of Ju.vntie
learners, it is true there are many valuable books
written on the subject of Music, but they are not wilh
in the reach of uii, and c veil if they were, n v are
not written in a style to be understood by that class
standing more in need of instruction—l moan scholars.
To depend altogether on tlie labors of the teacher is
depending on 100 much. It is not like learning’ gram
mar or history, where tlie pupil has a text book io
which to refer. The teacher giv.es instruction one
day which is forgo:ten the next. Bo it will be the atm
of the Editor of the Harp to make the science as easy
as possible, by leading the ptq.il on gradually from th
elementary lo more difficult branches of Musical
Bciencc.
The columns of tlie Harp will be open so all com
munications on tlie subject of Music, whether of a
sacred or secular nature.
Each iniinbec will contain one or more pieces of
original or selected Music, lor the Piano, Guitai <a
Flute—Church Music will also find a p! :ce in om
columns. Thus the Harp will be a welcome visiter
to the pupil, the amateur, and ihe re igiousconmiunitv.

their strongest sense, the doctrine of State Rights, I

which grow out of the ‘ general welfare” school. A i
tariff, a national bank, and national internal improve

our most he irty reprobation. The Constitutional:

compelled to choose the latter. The former agrees
with us m‘no political opinion; whilst the latter “dees
in his opposition to a United States Bank arid in hi
zealous support of the Sub-Treasury. In the sue

I Bank, With a capital of fifiy millions, and a revival of
I tne odious American System, onerous and oppressive i
! to every southern interest: In that of Mr. van Bu-j
ren, om principles will be successful, at least, in part. |
, We could not, however satisfy our feelings if we did
not express ?. disrelish of both, having but little confi
dence in either of them.
| In its non-political features our paper will advocate
i every measure tending to deveiope the agricultural in

clas of society.
Internal Improvements (under the control of Slate

Who will neglect to supply themselves with Ber
nard's Remedy for Cholera, when it is so fully prove t
to be efficacious in all the diseases for which it is re
commended'/ In no case has it failed to cure the most
obstinate s.: lacks of summer complaint made upon chil
dren. In one mstanee a permanent cure was effected
upon a child in this place after the summer complain:
had put it (as thought by the doctors) beyond the pow
er of medicine to relieve. It was such an aggravate!
case that the child had, in the course of one day and
night, sixty-three evacuations from the bowels. Vet
one bottle proved a sovereign remedy.
