QUARTERLY REVIEW.
rrHllS Periodical is the only one of its class in the
L entire region of the South: and its pages a.re
referred to as the best evidence of the ability of the
South, and its capacity to give expression to the
feelings, the interests and intelligence el this sec
tion of our country. Its purpose is to fairly repres
ent ourselves, and not to misrepresent otheis. It
aims to maintain the truth as we understand it, and
to ussert the intellectual equality of our section,
while, at the same time, it will free tlic mind ot the
mind of our people from that state of literary thral
dom and dependency under which they have too
long labored. We claim, then, from all lovers ol
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
worthy of the world’s admiration and our owm
pride/ C. MOETIMEK, Publisher,

This Journal, now entering on its Fourth volume,
is two well known to need any panegyric from the
publishers. This much we will say —we intend
to enlarge, and beautify it. Each number will
have a handsome cover, upon which advertisements
can be inserted, without taking up the reading
matter of the paper.
The editors will each, in his department, give a
re-cord of the progress and advancement of agri
culture and horticulture, especially, as adapted to
the soil and climate of the South. Each number
will contain plans for the month, for the farm,
orchard and garden ; new plants and seeds adapted
to Southern culture will receive the careful atten
tion of the editors, and a faithful report made
thus saving thereon, thepublic from much imposi
tion.
To our patrons, we appeal; how large an edi
tion shall we start with, sor 10,000 ? We know
there are more than 10,000 reading farmers, gard
ners, and florsts around us, who would save money
by taking the Sod of the Sooth. 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,
fig 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 of the South, for 1854, something worth ten
times the subscription price.
