ATTENTION!
PEOPLE of all nations, of all religious denomi
nations, and of all occupations :
Vou are hereby respectfully invited to attend a
sale on t e twenty-third day of July next, at 11
o’clock, in the forenoon, of the lots of the new town
of Summerville, Chattooga County, Georgia,
This town is situated on a gently undulating piece
of ground in the enchanting valley of Chattooga
River,on its western Bank, having Taylor’s exten
sive ridge of mountains, in beautiful prospect to the
East, and lofty spurs of the Lookout mountain to
the West. Immediately at the northwest end of
the Town, is a beautiful blue limestone spring, is
suing several hogsheads of the most limpid w*ter
per minute, and upon the northeastern part of the
town, several otherfountains are to be found, which
have never ceased to issue pure and limpid water.
Here the dyspeptic who has found nostrums and
learned doctors’ means ineffectual, may come in the
certainty of the use of these waters, and inhaling
the atmosphere of the most healthful section of
country upon our Globe, radically healing his im
paired digestive organs. We would, therefore,
especially invite the dyspeptic, and all those who
desire to keep free from this fashionable disease,
to come and purchase lots or farms in the vicinity.
The lots are admirably sized and shaped, for mer
chants’stores and dwellings,mechanic’s workshops,
their dwellings and gard ns, the floriculturist, and
last not least the silk culturist. Here the merchant
may vend a reasonable amount of goods, at fair
profits; the house joiner, the brick and stone mason,
the carriage maker, the black and white smith, the
watchmaker and the tailor, may get profitable em
ployment, in their respective line of business.
A seminary of high order, for tire education of
females, is about being established in the vicinity
of this place, and the earliest attention will be given
to the establishment of a male academy.
We regret the inadequacy of our humble pen to
I describe nature’s best effort for the grandeur of sce
nery of the surrounding country of this enchanting
spot; it would take the pen of a Cooper, or a
Symmes, to do justice to the subject.
Cotton, small grain, and silk, will be the staples
of this country, and believe him not, who will tell
you, that the Georgia mountain valleys will not
produce as much cotton per acre, as the best lands
in Morgan, Greene, Jefferson or Burke counties.
The terms of sale will be one-fifth cash, the
residue in equal instalments at six, twelve,eighteen
and twenty-four months. Purchasers giving their
notes, which, on being paid, perferted titles will be
given.

PROSPECTUS. I
lV ‘ n '* Polished in Avgusta, on the first
Saturday of October, lS3i), the first number of
a Weekly Journal, to be called
THE SOUTHERN PIONEER:
Ue\ oted to the Literature, Institutions and Amuse
ments of the South.
Browne, Cushney & McCafferty, Publishers.
Charles Wyatt Rice, Editor.
The South is the natural home of Literature.
She lias ever been so. Homer strolled and sum;
under the rays of the served sun; Italy and Greece
have, from their first wakening into being as civil
ized nations, afforded their Poets and Orators.—
I he Literary pilgrim ever bends his step to the
South ol Kuiope, as ills most favored shrine; while
there, fond memories throng to his min i, of the
epic strains of Homer, the soothing measures of the
Mantuan Swan, the exu.ting odes of Horace, and
the biting sarcasms of Juvenal. While in later
times reelings to the memory of the fearful strains
of Dante, the epic measures of the madman Tasso,
the soft strains of Petrarch, and the pleasing ima
ges of Boccacio. And while thus fondly recalling
to memory all these, he 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 lorm the canopy above
him, in the brilliancy of the sunset that glow in
the horizon, and in the tints that the air and clime
spread over the earth, the inspiration that formed
and developed the genius of those whom he now
so fondly regrets.
Such food for inspiration docs the Literary ,pil
grim find on the classic shores of Italy and Greece,
and under the fervid sun of the South. And is it
possible that a kindred clime in the Western Hem
isphere presents no parallel to this > Do the same
sun, the same brilliancy of the canopy of the clouds,
the same glorious sunsets, the same rich tints upon
the landscape, afford no inspiration here I A
wilder, a more abrupt scenery than Italy or Greece
can boast, speak in living tones to their beholders.
While with these an Italian softness of landscape
upon the Ashley, the Savannah, andother favorite
streams, glorious waterfalls and streaming cas
cades, are every where claiming their worship
pers in those who dwell among them. And do all
these afford no inspiration ? They do inspire;
they have spoken in the eloquent tones of the
Kuti.edue and Pinckneys of the Revolution ;
they' have spoken in the polished pages of a
Grimke; they are now speaking in the strains of
a Charlton, a Gilman, Wilde, Suj.hs, Meek,
Butt, Pendleton,Ticknor, Wimciajin thefaith
rul scenes of a Longstiieet, and in the vivid
sketches of a Strong, Ware, Morrow and Mo
ragne. Aye, more, they are speaking in the
thousand of the young, who cast back to the moun
tains, the waterfalls and the streams, their inspira
tion in living tones, and whose wild songs through
rare publications, sometimes startle the public ear.
They do speak in these thousand v ho with a pro
per medium for communicating their thoughts to
the public, would electrify the world by their elo
quent tones. Nor does the South lack for inspira
tion in her historic incidents. A brief reference in
the mind of each individual to the striking inai
dents in the early history of each of the Southern
States, will convince him that they afford rich ma
terials from which the ready pen may draw for
amusement and instruction. Hut 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
interest. 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 a new era what
Greece was 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 liter
ary resources within herself, or is better calculated
from her natural scenery, the peculiarities of her
climate, the leisure of her citizens, and her gener
al advantages, to become an eminently literary
community than the Southern States of this con
federacy. This is the platform on which we in
tend 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 be spared to draw from
: every portion of the South, contributions upon ev
ery subject, which, while they shall be of a high
, character, shallevcrrange
, ‘ 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 Na
ture. We believe that on them will be built a
fabric of glory and greatness to the South. We be
lieve especially that they afford to the Southern
States the means of out-stripping the rest of the
world in their literary career. And wo know that
these arc times of peculiar danger to these institu
tions ; we know that they are now attacked by the
insidious foe as well as by the open enemy. We
shall therefore place our Journal as a sentinel on
the watchtower of Southern institutions, ever
watchful for attacks, and ever ready to repel them.
W r e delight in the amusements and holidays of
the South. We glory in them as fit amusements
for a people generous and brave, quick in their im
pulses,and shunning sluggishness. We delight in
the gun and chase. We hail merry old Christmas
and its cheerful sports as old friends and true, set
ting the brow free from care, making the bosoms
of men to glow with cheerful and Iricndly emotions,
calling friends to the festive board and to the ex
change of kind thoughts and sentiments, and send
ing all away to run in joyfulness their course of
duty until the invitations to joy and mirth arc
again renewed. The pages of the Pioneer will,
therefore, be enlivened with lively chronicles of
exploits in the sports of the field, and with spirited
sketches of the fun and frolic that merry old Christ
mas lets loose upon us. We will also, in order to
please all, give a weekly abstract of the most im
portant news of the day. And for the fair practi
ses upon the Piano or Guitar, shall occasionally
embellish our pages with original and selected
Music.
It is a fortunate circumstance for the interest of
a work of thismturc, that the field of Literature
at the South is, as yet, comparatively untrodden.
The Literary resources of the South, great as they
are acknowledged to be, are as yet comparatively
undeveloped. Every grove, river, dale and moun
tain, has yet its tale to tell. We therefore send
our Journal forth as a Pioneer to gather the riches
of this new country. From every hill, dale, river
and mountain, he will return laden with rich stores.
These stores, original and varied in their character,
as they must be, he will 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 embarke 1.
Having thus detailed the plan of our future oper
ations, we commend our hcbdornedal 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 educa
tion, we had a profession to choose ; after mature
deliberation we have chosen this, because we de
light in the employment, and arc devoted to the
cause for the furtherance of which the work is es
tablished. No common obstacle, therefore, will
turn us aside from our course. Hut having chosen
the editing of the Pioneer, and through it the pro
motion of Southern literature, as the work of our
life, we shall relinquish it {only with our breath
The public may therefore depend on having a per
manent work. And while we commend our sheet
to the favor of the public generally, we commend
it particularly to the kind charities of that band
who have linked themselves together for the ad
vancement of the cause to which we devote the
work. They have acted with us in the pa«t; we
trust they will act with us in the future. No ex
ertions 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
between this date and the day of publication will
be spent in collecting materials for the work.
The Pioneer will be printed on an Imperial
sheet, in quarto form, and will contain a greater
quantity of reading matter than any work of the
kind published at the South.
Terms. —Five Dollars per annum, payable on
the issuing of the first No. Persons sending us
ten subscribers, will be entitled to one years sub
scription, gralis.
Agents allowed the usual per centage.
