Accompanying, you have submitted the official
pioceedings of tlie Share Holders in Mass Meeting,
convened on the evening of tho 27 tli inst., for the
purpose of selecting a Committee, and taking into
consideration other matters affecting the interests ot
all ticket holders in my Third Gift Enterprise.
It will be seen that a Committee have been ap
pointed, aud instructions given them as to the
course to be pursued op to a certain stage of pro
gression in the enterprise. For the information of
absent share holders, I here beg leave to state, that
the number of tickets sold up to the present time
is about 46,000. From this you will perceive, that
so soou as 34,000 more are sold, they will advise
the whole body of share holders of the fact, and
ask of them, in general meeting assembled for the
purpose, instructions as the final disposition of the
Gift Property, with which they are intrusted.
That these 34,000 tickets may be sold in the
shortest possible time, the undersigned makes the
following propositions, unequalled lor liberality:
Each person who gets up a club of ten subscri
bers, and forwards (10) ten dollars to this office, will
receive by return mail or other conveyances, Eleven
tickets.
Ivach person who sends [at one time] one hun
dred dollars, will have sent iu like manner, One Hun
dred and Fifteen tickets.
Each person who shall send [at one time] five
hundred dollars, will have sent in like manner, Six
Hundred Tickets.
And lbr all larger sums in exact proportion.
It is thus, ladies and gentlemen, that I hope to
secure your hearty co-operation in bringing this
enterprise to a speedy, and I hope to all, a satisfac
tory termination.
With great considerations of respect,
I remain vours, obediently,
July 28th, 1854. * J. PERHAM.

QUARTERLY REVIEW.
rTHUS Periodical is the only one ot 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 to the
feelings, the interests and intelligence of this see
tion ot our country. Its purpose is to fairly repres
ent ourselves, and not to misrepresent others. It
aims to maintain the truth as we understand it, ana
to assert the intellectual equality of our section,
while, at the same time, it will free the mind of 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 ail lovers of
the South and friends of a truly home literature,
that support for our work which will enable us to
give it a tree course, and thus make it eminent!}
worthy ot the world’s admiration and our own

This Journal, now entering on its. Fourth volume,
is two well known to need any panegyric from tin
publishers. This much we will say—we intend
to enlarge, and beautify it. Flach number v.n.
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, ns 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 ttie 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 Worsts around us, who would save money
by taking the Soil of the 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,
fig or strawberry • every laoy that cultivates a rose,
geranium or pink : vvery 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.
