OUR first year has nearly closed, atul as yet, we liave never come before the pui.lie,with a regular Prospectus. Our views it is'rue, have oeen briefly set firth in the first number o our paper, out its circulation, at that early perio/l was of course, very limit cd, and they could not be very widely dis seminated. Under these circumstances, in presenting our Prospectus. it is but right that we should, iu as few words as practica ble, reiterate them. Our Country, our State, am) our Home, have an equal claim, and their Several and united interests, it shall ever be our aim to promote. I ne general politics of our belov ed coun trv, shall occasionally occupy our columns, but as Editors, we disclaim all political party connections. A strict and undeviating neu trality, shall always characterize our wri tings, for reasons which are good, anti sub stantial. Our patrons and friends are found among those of both parties, and it is ataheir suggestion, wc consent to pursue tus course, for the establishment of the paper is desired’ by all, and could not be sustained except hv uni in of both. Phils then,we are engaged and to our friends of both parties, to our pa ti-ons, and to the public—we pledge our best anil most nm-emitted exertions, to render ou -s, a useful, entertaining, and interesting paper. *** Editors throughout the Slate, will confer a favor by giving tile above a few in insertions.

DjtVtE Tit AN SO KIP f has been published ■-JL one month, tins being the forth num ber. 1 lose who have read it can judgeof its character. It has received all the support we could anticipate for it, both in ;he way of subscription ami advertising. Indeed, the latter, which to ns is certainly the must in teresting part of its contents,” we fear has already trenched somewhat upon the rights of the general realer. In a weekly publica tion it is almost impossible to keep peace with the current of events, and advertiser fin lit of little value. We are desirous to make it of more value to the mercantile community, without interferring in any im portant degree with its present general character. An experience of many years in the business emboldens us in the belief, that we cun produce a publication which will de serve the pjiblic support. A’ any rate, we are disposed to try die experiment, and therefore pronose to publish this paper three times o week, (on the afternoon of Tuesday. Thursday and Saturday)—commencing ear- J.Y ,n she next mon*h ■—provided, that we,ob tain one hundred subscribers at four dollars pc’- annum. The weekly paper will he con tinued at the same price, as at present We shall enlarge whenever our advertising pat ronage .ruler 111 e new arrangement wjrran‘s it.

IIOSTOV BEWICK COMP.LYW jryi IE success which has attended the pub yJL licatiou of the Inst Magazines fr-.ni the English Press, h>s led to preparations for issuing a periodical more particularly adapted to the wants and teste of the Anter ican public—while it will be the object of the proprietors to make the wotk strictly wlu 1 its title indicates, it will nevertheless contain all articles of interest to its patrons which appear in Foreign Magazines. Extensive preparations have been enter ed into, both with artists and authors, to fur n sh from all parts of'he Union, drawings and of every subject of interest, which the publishers confidently believe wil| enable them to issue a work honorable to its title, and acceptable to the American people. The first number of the American Maga zine, illustrated with about twenty spendid engravings, will appear on or before the j first of September, and be continued month ly, containing betvveen 40 and 50 imperial ■ictavo pages, and be furnished at the low price of two dollars per anti util.

Wtiat weshiull seek in the sciences is truth, and truth is in the facts.— Broussias. ’St/T PUI than a year has elapsed since we i*X niblished a Prospectus for the “Geor gi i nlieal Reporter.” and the work has no* yet made its appearance. Without attempting any apology to the medical public, and others of tile literati who might have felt an interest in the forthcorn ing if such a work, we will only say that the cause of the failure, or delay of its intended publication, was for want of sufficient pat ronage to “authorize the undertaking.” We have, however, determined to make one more effort, and appeal for the lasttime to the feeling of an intelligent liberal South ern community, who, we still confidently be * ieve, will not stand by indifferently, care essly and idly, and see the design and en ernrize languish and die, in its very con eption and inception, and that, Loo, merely or the want ofa small patronage. Political and party newspapers, that are calculated to inflame the pashions, and dis tract the mind, are often gotten up in the day, and are not only handsomely, but are liberality supported. But now for the first time, when an attempt is made for the pub lication of a useful and scientific journal, one which, we trust, may carry healing underits wings, and health in its flight—addressing itself to the real misery of man to his diseases —lies hushed and slumbers in silence amindst his almost total unconcernedness. Remember that Dr. Antony, .-Sngusta; Drs. Babey-and Lamar Macon; Drs. German, Bov kin, Fort and White, Milledgeville; Dr. Phil ips, Powelton, Dr. Gorman, Forsyth, Dr. Reese, Monticello, Dr. Garrin, Waynesboro’, Doctor Haynes, Sparty, Dr Hoxey, late of IvitoTvon, now of Columbus, I)r. Jones, of Randolph Dr Persons, of Warrenton, late of Macon, Dr Robertson, Augusta, and many others if high standing in the profession, are engaged as contributors in the work. Be sides, we intend making selections and ex tracts from the ,Imerican, English and French Medical and Surgical Journals.
