PROSPECTUS.
Will be published in Augusta, Go., on the fint
Saturday of October, 1839, the first number of
a Weekly Journal, to be called
THE SOUTH Ell IV PIONEER :
p,.roted to the Literature, Institutions and Amuse
ments of the outh.
Browne, Cushnf.y & McU afferty, Publishers.
Charles Wyatt Rice, Editor.
The South is the natural home of Literature.
She has ever been so. Horner strolled and sung
under the rays of tire served sun; Italy and Greece
have, from their first wakening into being as civil
ized nations, afforded their Poets and Orators.—
The Literary pilgrim ever bends his step to the
South of Europe, as his most favored shrine ; while
there, loud memories throng to his min , of the
epic strains of Horner, the soothing measures of the
Mantuan Swan, t re exu ting odes of Horace, and
the biting sarcasms of Juvenal. While in later
times rec ings 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 brilliai.t heavens that form 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 fond'y regrets.
Such food for inspiration does 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, all'ord 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, g'orious 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 (ones of the
Kutledge 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,
Hi tt, Pendleton,Ticknor, Wittick, in the faith
rul scenes of a Longstheet, and in the vivid
sketches of a Strong, W are, 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 inci
dents in the early history of each of the Southern
States, will convince him that they atford rich ma
terials from which the ready pen may draw for
amusemei t and .nstruction. But mure than all
these do the leisure and opportunities for mental
cultivation that her domestic institutions alford her
citizens, present stroig grounds of belief that the
South is de lined 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 iter
ary resources within herself, or is better calculated
from her natural scenery, the pecu iarities of her
climate, the cisureof her citizens, and her gener
ljUjadvantages, to become an eminently literary
than the Southern Matos of this con
federacy. this is*me pmtntfnrm on which we in
tend to raise a Weekly Journal, to V» 111\_: -1, southern
writers shall de ight to cont.i.mte, and which the 1
whole South shall he p oud to claim as its own.—
Believing most firmly that success will crown our
exertions, no effort will he spared to draw from
every portion of the South, contributions upon ev- _
cry subject, which while they shad be of a high
character, shall ever range
* from grave to gay, from lively to severe,’
We believe that the institutions of the South arc
founded in the immutable laws of the tlod of Na
ture. We believe that on them will be buid a
fabric of glory and greatness to the South. We be
teve espeeia ly that they alfoid to the Southern
States the means of out-stripping the rest of the
world in their literary career, nnd wu know that
these are times of peculiar danger to these institu
tions ; we know that they arc now attacked Ly 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 re pc them.
We delight in the amusements and holidays of
the South. V\ c g ory in them as nt amusements
for a people generous and i rave, quick in tneir im
pulses,and shunning sluggishness. V\ c delight in
the gun and chase. We hail merry old Christmas
and its cheerful spoils 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 chronic es of
exploits in the sports of the held, and with spirited
sketches of the fun and frolic that merry odChiist
mas lets loose ii|>on 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 fur the interest of
a work of this n iture, 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, arc 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 wi l return laden with rich stores.
These stores, original and varied in their character,
as they must be, he will he proud to display for the
amusement and instruction of his readers. We
ask for him a kind reception at the hands of all j
friend* of the cause in which he has embarkel.
Having thus detailed the plan of our future oper- i
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 educa
tion, we bad a profession to choose; after mature
deliberation we have chosen this, because we de
light in the employment, and are 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 j
the editing of the Pioneer, and through it the pro
motion of Southern iterature, as the work of our i
life, we shah 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 general y, we commend
rt particularly to tlic kind charities of that band
who have linked themselves together for the ad
vancement of the cause to which we devote toe
work. They have acted with us in the past; 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 te well to a,id that the intervening time
between this date and the day of publication wiii
be spent in colic ting materia s for the work.
The Pioneer will be printed on an Imperial
| sheet, in quarto form, and will contain a greater
I quantity of reading matter than any work of the
, kind published at the v outh.
