Twenty volumes have aim !y been issued.
It is usti'iU ?announce that a small

The Lady's Hook is probably the most
proper that could be desired for Ladies,
edited by their own sex and assisted as the
editorial department is by the pictoral embellishments
it is positively the Boudoir
companion.
There are other publications that advertise
Fashion Plates.
The Publisher of the Lady's Book wishes
it to be distinctly understood that the
principal Fashions in his work are coloured,
and in every Number, which is not
the ease with any otliei work published

PROSPECTUS 3
OF T11E ]
Southern Literary Messenger* J
T. W. WHITE, Editor and Proprietor. i
This is a monthly Magazine, devoted chiefly to :*!
Literature, but occasionally finding room also for 1
articles tfiat fall within the scope of Science; and '1
not professing an entire disdain of tasteful selections, |
be, in the main, original. a
Parly politics and controversial Theology, as '?jl
far as possible, are jealously excluded. They art .?!
sometimes so blended with discussions in literature
or in moral science, otherwise unobjt ctionable, as
to gain admittance foi the sake of the more valua- ^
l ie matter to which they adhere; but whenever that
happens, they are incidental, only; not primary.? '$
They are dross, tolerated only besause it cannot y
well be severed from the stcrlidg ore wherewith it is
ncorporatcd.
Reviews, and Critical Notices, occupy thoir due >
spree in the work; and it is the Editor's aim tha S
they should have a threefold tendency?to convey, 'j
in & condensed form, such valuable truths or intrr- '
c -ting incidents as are embodied in the works re
viewed,?to direct the reader's attention to books
tbatdeseive to be read,?and to warn him against 'j
wasting time and money upon that large number, : j
which merit only to be burned. In this age, of pub
lications that by their variety and multitude, distract
and overwhelm every undiscrh mating student, impartial
criticism, governed by the views just mentioned,
it is one of the most inestimable and indi?>
pensahle of auxiliaries, to hi:u who does wish to
discriminate. f-j
Essays, and Tales, having in view utility ot .
arnuseimat, or both?Historical Sketches?ind Reminiscences
of events too ruinate for Hirtory, yet v
eluciil iting it, and heightening its interest,?n-ay
be regarded as fanning the staple of the work And .;>
of indigenous Poetry, enough is published?sometimes
of no mean strain?to manifest and to culti- ~i
vate the growing poetical taste and talents of our
country. ^
The times appear, for several reasons, to demand * >
such a work?and not one alone, but many. The "?
public mind is feverish and irritated still, from re- ,-i
cent political strifes:?The soft, assuasi'e influence j
of Literature is needed to alla> that fever, and A..j
soothe th.it irritation. Vice and folly are rioting
abroad:?Thc^ should be driven by indignant rebuke
or lashed by ridicule, into their fitting haunts. Ignorance
lords it ovrr an immense proportion of our ; '
people:?Every spring should be act in motion, to
arouse the enlightened, and to increase their number;
so thit jhe great enemy of popular government
may no longer brood, like a portentous cloud, over
the destinies of our country. And to accomplish all
these ends, what more sowcrful agent can be employed,
than a periodical, on the plan of the Messeagei;
if that plan be carried out in practiced
1 ar ouuiil |x'wUH?nv ir^unca duuii an ugiifi. xu i
ill the Union, south of Washington, there are but J
two Literary publications! Northward of that city,
there are probably at least twenty-five or thirty! Is . f]
this contrast justified by the wealth, the leisure, the J
native talent, or the actual literary taste, of the
Southern people, compared with those ol the Northern!
No: for in wealth, talents, and taste, we tray
ustly claim at least an equality with onr brethren;
tnd a domestic institution exclusively our own,berond
all doubt affords us, if we cbo.>se, twice the
eisure for reading and writing, w hich they enby.
It was from a deep sense of tliis local want, that
he word Southern was engrafted on the name of %
his periodical, and not with any design to nourish 5
ocal prejudices, or to advocate suppohed local inter'sts.
Far from any such thought, it is the Editor's
ervent wish to see the North and South bound eniearinglv
together forever, in the silken bands of
nutual kindness and affection. Far from medita
ing hostility to the north, he his already drawn
ma he hopes hereafter to draw, much of his choi:est
matter thence: and happy inde< d will he deem
limself, should his pages, by making each region
mow the other better, contribute in any essential
legrce to dispel the lowering clouds that now threaen
the peace of both, and to brighten and strength- _ 1
in sacred ties of fraternal love. * m
The Southern Literary Messenger has now -J
eaohed the May No of its fourth volame. How
ar ithas acted out the ideas here uttered, is not for
he Editor to say. He believes, however, that it ^
"alia not further abort of thorn, than human weak- "J
teas usually makes Practice fall short of Theory,
CONDITIONS.
1. The Southern Literary Messenger is publish>d
in monthly numbers, of 64 large superroyai uc?
avo pages each, on the best of paper, and neatly \
:overed, at $5 a year?payable in advance.
2. Or five new subscribers by sending their
lames and $20 at one time to the editor, will re- >
:eive their copies for one year for that Bum, or at
$4 for each.
3. The risk of loss of payments for subscriptions,
vh'ch have been properly committed to the mail,
>r to the hands of a postmaster, is assumed by the
iditor. y
4. If a subscription is not directed to be discon- j
inued before the first uutnber of the next volume I
ias been published, it will be taken as a continu- ! I
tnce for another year. Subscriptions must comnence
with the beginning of the volume, and |not 1
>e taken for less than a year's publication, unless
he individual subscribing i9 willing to pay $5 for
