The great and important events?Religious, Political, nnil Military?now agitating the nations of the Old World, give to these Publications an interest uud value they never before possessed. They occupy u middle ground between the hastily written news-it tins, crude speculations, and living rumors of the newspaper, and the ponderous Tome of the historian, written long after the living interest in the facts he records shall have passed away. The progress of the War in the East occupies u large space in their pages. Every movement is closely criticised, whither of friend or of foe, and all short-comings fearlessly pointed out. The letters from the CltlMEA and from the BALTIC in Blackwood's Magazine, from two of its most popular contributors, give a more intelligible and reliable account of the movements of the great belligerents than cati elsewhere be found. These Periodicals ably represent the three great political parties of Great Krilain?Whig, Tory, und Radical,?but politics forms only ono feature of their character. As Organs of the most profound writers oil Science, Literature, Morality, and Religion, they stund as they ever have stood, unrivalled in the world of letters.

TIIE undersigned propone to commcnce, at un enrlv date, in the Town of Newberrv, the pnhlication of a Weekly newspaper, to bo callcd "THE SUU," designed for gencrul circulation. Its columns will contain the news of the day, foreign and domestic: and accurate review of the inurkcts: a synopsis of the proceedings of Congress during its session : articles on ngiiculture, and interesting miscellaneous mutter. A portion of it will be devoted to literature, oriirin al and selected. It is the intention or the undersigned to make The Sun an ugrceuble and instructive visitor, dispelling error and ignorance, and diffusing gonial and healthy influences wherever its rays may penetrate. It will be politicul, but liberal, owing no slavish or servile allegiance to parties or politicians. It will advocute measures, not men; aud will labor only for the success of principles. In a word, it will bo the organ of 110 man or clique. It will be American in tone and sentiment, yet repudiating nothing foreign, because it is so; believing and maintaining that the good, the wise, the honoiable, aud useful, are indigenous to no clime, nor the property of any peculiar people, but are the common right of all. Ita aim will be to advance, reform and improve; not. to crush, depress and destroy. It will hold up to light and reflection, the ruthless and savage deeds and practices of the times; defend oure morals in all the social relations of life; and scout at all attempts at scribbling blackguardism. It will be progressiva, but not recklessly so. J'nterlaining fixed and decided views on the great questions of the day, it will viudicale the honor, protect the rights,-and defend tha cause, and the inflitutions of the South. It will number in its corpa of contributors some able political aud literary writers. We promise much, but intend to perform it all, and more, if the reading public wiH give tha enterprise a liveial patronage. 'TERMS (^SUBSCRIPTION.

It is our special object to publish n XKWSI'AI'KR, proper. We shrink from the expression of no opinion which may be demanded bv the subject hefoio tis?, but as a peneral principle, prefer staling facts ut the earliest instant possible, and to leave it to our readers to form their own opinions. The course of the paper is severely conservative, first of morality and order ; next, of the institutions peculiar to the South ; and next, of the union of the States. We resolutely oppose radicalism, as well in democracy as morals. One important object in the establishment of our paper, was to present a cheap vehicle for information From this object we have been compelled to depart, to sonic extent; but not to leave it entirely out of view, we propose to sell the paper at our counter, in packaces of Ten. for Twenty Cents, and to mail Ten Copies to any one of our sulntcribers for a year, who will send ui> Fifty Dollars. This will relieve ns from the risk* of collection and the expense of mailing so many different puokagea, while it will give to every neighlmrhood throughout the State, the epportunity of a Duily I'uper at FIVE DOLLARS per annum.
