This Journal, now entering on its Fourth voluirte,
- two well known to Deed any panegyric from the
i’Ublis!o:rs. Tiiis much we will say—we' intend
’■> enlarge, and beautify it. Each number will
eave a handsome cover, upon which advertisements
-an be inserted, without taking up the reading
matter of the paper. s 7 , .
The editors will each, in liis department, give a
r..-cor«l of the progress and advancement of agri
< uiture and horticulture, especially, as adapted to
the soil and climate of the South. Each number
will contain plans for the month, for the larm,
orchard and garden ; new plants and seeds adapted
to Southern culture will receive the careful atten
tion of tire editors, and a faithful report made
t hus saving thereon, thepnblic from much imposi
tion. *? ‘& r * ' ' IZ&Sffc: ■
To our patrons, we appeal ; how largo an edi
tion shall we-start with, sor 10,000 ? We know
there are more than 10,000 reading fanners, gard
ners, and tior.-ts around us, who would save money
by taking the Soil of th/-. South. But it is not confin
ed exclusively to this class. Every man that plants
cotton or corn, a cabbage, or a turnip, keeps a horse
or a cow, raises an apple, pear, plum, peach, grape,
tig or strawberry : every lady that cultivates a rose,
geranium or pink : every house-keeper that makes
a loaf of bread, or a pot of soap, will find in the
Soil oj the South, for 1854, something worth ten
t imes the subscription price.

QUARTERLY REVIEW.
t IMIIS Periodical is the only one of its class in the
L entire region of the South: and its pages are
referred to as the best evidence of the ability of the
South, and its capacity to give expression t<) tlie
findings, the interests and intelligence of this sec
tion of our country. Its purpose is to fairly repres
ent ourselves, ami not to misrepresent others. It
aims to imuutuiujthe truth as we understand it, and
to assert the intellectual equality of onr section,
while, at the same timefit will free the wind.of the
mind of our people rrofn'that state of literary thrul
dom and dependency under which they have too
long labored. We ciaiiu, then, from all lovers of
the South and friends of a truly home literature,
that support for our work which will enable us to
give it a free course, and thus make it eminently
worth} 7 of the world’s admiration and pur own
pride. MORTIMER, Publisher,
