A TALE OF BORDER LIFE,
Br
J. WITHERSPOON ERVIN.
(S)
It proposed by Messrs. GILBERT <fc DARR.
proprietors of the Sumter Watchman, to publish
in a permanent form, thai most interesting Southem
Talc, entitled
SILVERSHOT j _
on,
THE AUTOSSEE CHIEF,
composed by our fellow-townsman, Jno. W. Ervin,
Esq., and which appeared originally through
the columns of our paper.
They are induced to this step by various eon*
side rations; among them are the following:
1. The Tale itself is of the highest order as to
literary merit, and as to varied excitiDg incident
from beginning to end. ]
2. It is intensely Southern ip its character,
locality and sentiment
8. Its moral features rise vastly above what
even may be found in the most approved fieti
tious writings ol Ibe day. mere is not, an ?
preseion or allusion within its whole compos*
which would grate upon the ear of piety or medesty.
It ia manly, generous and noble in all its
teachings.
4. Those who have read it as it came out
through the columns of the Watchman, call loudly
for its publication in the Book form; and those
who have read only detached portions of it are
more solicitous that it should be thus published.
5. Soutfi" Carolina owes a debt of gratitude to
Mr. Ervin, second only to that which she owes to
Mr. Simms, for his zeal aud skill in matching from
oblivion to which they were fast passing, numerous
thrilling incidents connected with her early
settlements, and especially, with her Revolutionary
struggles, wliicn contribute largely to add
new interest to her classic soil.
6. Mr. Ervin has never l>een at all adequately
remunerated for his abundant labors in his oho>>
sen field of literary toil. The columns of the
Watchman for years post, as well as the magazines
of our State ana elsewhere, evince bis untiring
industry and merit as a writer.
7. It is the desire of the Proprietors of the
Watchman, who feel the pressure of strong obli*
gation to Mr. Ervin, to do something for him,
which may largely contribute to place him, as he
richly merits, among the first class of writers,
by the publication and wide circulation of this
his most extended production.
Tliey are about to incur great labor and outlay
of money by this (for them) new undertaking:
but they feel assured that the people of South
Carolina, and not only of South Carolina, but of
the South generally, will sustain them fully and
reward one handsomely, who by birth, education
and every ennobling sentiment, is devoted to her
best interest.
Mr. Ervin possesses the happy talent of throwing
into the warp and woof of his productions.
Southern life and Southern feeling most attractively.
These are some of the reasons which induce the
Proprietors of the Watchman to embark in this
undertaking. They send forth this circular under
the confident hope, that a short time will bring to
their office, a list of subscribers, which will vastly
more than repay them for their lal>or and actual
outlay of money, and thus put it into their power
to hand over to their friend, the author, something
approximating, at least, to the value of his
elegant, interesting and instructive production.
Terms.?The work will be published at the
extremely low price of One Dollar?lower, it is
believed, than New York wholesale rates?in order
to place it within the reach of all classes of
persons.
To enable tfhem to meet the heavy demand, incurred
at the start, in the publication ofthiswwk,
the proprietors are compelled to require advance
subscriptions, for which money they are to lie
held responsible, iu the eveut of failure or casualty.
Each purchaser, therefore, will be expected
to pay for the book at the time of subscribing for it.
