rrHE PROPRIETORS OF THE "MERCURY" '
1 having purchased the "Southern Field and Fireside"
and finding it impossible to make arrangements
which Would insure a regu ar supply of paper, upon'
. Ci ouut of the irregularity and uncertainty of trans*
porta i n for the "Field and Fireside" at Augusta, Ga.,
the 'time having to be supplied from the mills at Raleigh,
N have removed the "Field and Fireside" to'
Raleigh and combiued these two sterling Literary Journals.
The "Mercury" is therefore merged into the
"southern Field and Fireside," and will be so published
nu.il the state of tire country will justify a divergement,
when both papers will bo resumed and continued
s ii t-retolore. Subscribers to both journals will receive
the paper to tho full time of subscription without delay
or interruption.
Tlie'iutire Editorial and Contribntorial Corps of both
papers are retained upon the emerging journal. It is
anuouuc-d without fear of contradiction that the ex
tensive nnil * <
splendid Array of Combined Talent
now employed iD writing for the '-Field and Fireside"
surpasses ill genuine merit, ability, celebrity and nu-'
merical strength any combination or ongageraent ever
before attained in the history of Periodical Literature
of Europe or America.
It is a large eight page Weekly Journal teeming with
original Romances, Sketches, Tales, Poetry, History/
Essays. Criticisms, Witticisms; including Translafcona" g
from the French, German and other Languages; Ag-' '
rtcultural, Mechanical and Scientific articles, etc.
The Proprietors confidently assert that the "Field"
and Fireside" shall at once far excel in real merit every
publication, of the kind ever belore attained or atteinp-'
ted in the United States or the South. The ariangoments
now eflectod fully justify the assertion.
