‘ GEORGIA LIME WORKS.
THE subscribers respectfully inform the public
that they have commenced the manufactory of
LIME near Jacksonborough.in Scriven county,Ga.
They have extensive quarries of Limestone, which
is considered by professor J. R. Dotting, State Geol
ogist, to whom tiie proprietors are indebted for the
information which induced them to embark in the
undertaking, to be of the very purest kind. They
have consequently erected large and substantial
Kilns in the most approved manner, and procured
men from the North who are perfectly acquainted
with the business. A portion of the Lime is now in
mantel and lias been pronounced by the principal
builders in the neighborhood of Augusta, and others,
to be of excellent quality. The subscribers take
pleasure in inviting those who take an interest in
the devolopcment oftiie internal resources of Geor
gia, to examine it, being convinced that the whole
United States cannot produce a more beautiful arti
cle.
They have now a quantity on hand, winch thev
will deliver at the mouth of Brier Creek on tne Sa
vannah river, or at Augusta. Having extensive
preparations in progress, tuey expect to he able du
ring the next winter and spring to supply orders to a
very large amount; and they have every reason to
(believe that they will entitle themselves to the favor
and patronage of tire public by producing a cheaper
i and better article at home than can he found
abroad.
Orders will be received by D. Kirkpatrick k Co,

TJIE SOUTHERN PIONEER;
Devoted to the Literature, Institutions and Amuse
ments of the trouth.
Browne, Cushney & McCaefertv, Publishers.
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 served sun; Italy and Greece
. ve > ’ rom their first wakening into being as civil
i/eu nations, afforded their Poets and Orators.—
I lie I.iterary pilgrim ever bends his step to the
bouth ol Europe, as his most favored shrine ; while
there, (ond memories throng to his min I, of the
epic strains of Homer, the soothing measures of the
Mantuan Swan, the exuding odes of Horace, and
the biting sarcasms of Juvenal. While in later
times reelings to the memory of the fearful strains
ol 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 lorrn 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 ? 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, and other favorite
streams, glorious waterfalls and streaming cas
cades, arc 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 (ones of the’
Rutledge 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, Simms, Meek,
Bvtt, Pendleton,Ticknor, WmicK.in the faith
nil scenes of a Lonostreet, 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 car.
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 inci
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. But more than all
these do the leisure and opportunities for mental
cultivation that her domestic institutions alfurd her
citizens, present stroig 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 pecu iarities 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 IVeekly Journal, to which Southern
writers shall de’ight to oont.ibute, and which the
whole South shall be pioud 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, shall everrange
‘From grave to gay, from 'ivcly to severe,’
We believe that the institutions of the South are
founded in the immutable laws of the God ofNa
ture. We believe that on them will be built a
fabric of glory and greatness to the South. We be
lieve especialy 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 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 watehtower of Southern institutions, ever
watchful 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 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 iriendly 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 are
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
sed 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 thismture, 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 he, 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, lie 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 lias embarkel.
Having thus detailed the plan of our future oper
ations, we commend our hebdomedal to (we trust,)
the favorable notice of the Southern public We
devote ourselves to the work, as our profession.— i
( n the verge of manhood, and of a liberal eduea- j
lion, we had a profession to choose j after mature i
deliberation we have choUttn this, because we dc- I
j light in the employment, and are devoted to the
j cause for the furtherance of which the work is es
j tablished. No common obstacle, therefore, will
! turn us aside from our course. But having chosen
I the editing of the Pioneer, and through it the pro
j motion of Southern literature, as the work of our
life, we shall relinquish it .only with our breath
The pitii'ic 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 past; we
i trust they will act with us in the future. No ex
ertions will he 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.
