Prospectus for ,reeky newspaper to Dc published
 Selma, Alabama: entitled the
 GostthecM Gargu9.

FIN commencing the publication of the SoM- H thern .Hrgns the Editors deem it unneces- sary to descant largely on the political course they intend pursuing, or make extraordinary professions of patriotism and devotion to the public interest.-It may not, however, be im- proper to add--that rcposing due confidence in the present Administration of the General Govcrnment-and believing that the stability of our Republican Institutions depends much on it's continuance for another constitutional term, we shall undeavor, by all laudable means, to promote the re election of ANDREW JACKSON to that station he has filled with so much honor to himself and benefit to the na- tion.
 We look to tho cxtnguishment of the Ma tional Debt, as that favored period when equi ty suggests the propriety of reduction of our impost duties to a level corresponding with the current expenses of Government, and be- lieve that all constitutional means should be resorted to, by the friends of equal rights to ensure this desirable end: yet, while we de- precate the tariff as injurious to the Southern interest, we conceive the doctrine of nullfi- cation as hazardous to the existence of the Union, and feel more inclined to endure, while evils are suiferable, than resort to such mea- sures for relief, as are at all times dangerous and extremely uncertain.
 We believe it should be the duty ot those who profess to be the organs of public sent- ment, 10 cultivate an amicable spirit of Par liamcnta1y disquistion, on such topics as may present themselves to popular discussion. It cannot but be regretted, however, that there are those who make the public good the blow ing-horn of their moral and political creed and, under the garb of hretended "INDEPEN DENcE," assail, in the most wantoD and un- provoked manner, such portion of their fel- low citizens as are incapable of being driven by raucorous abuse, to an abandonment of their respective positions;-we therefore dis claim all connexion with such self-created ordeals Of vhiated taste as neither honorblc in their nature, nor justifable in their exer- else.
 TERMS.- Southern Argus will be printed on fine sheet, equal in size to the largest papers in the State, with new type, and delivered to subscribers at the rate of S4 per annum in advance, or at the end of the year.
 Any person procuring six subscribers, and becoming responsible for the same, shall have a seventh copy gratis.
 Advertisements will be inserted at the cus- tomary prices.

 E returns his sincere thanks to his former customers, aud solicits a continuance of their favors also requests the public, generally, to give his house trial, and although he may have no spirits for sale, he would not be un- derstood thereby to prohibit those tavorlng him with their patronage from the use thereof, or from keeping their rooms supplied with them honest and obliging servants will al- ways be at hand to execute any commands which the wants or comfort of guests may re- quire. This establishment and servants be- ing the property of the subscriber, he eX- poets to continue the business permanently, (unless an opportunity to sell should oHer), and being pleasantly located in the centre ct business, and in its construction one ct the most convenient, its advantages are surpassed by no other house in the city The rooms are large and well ventilated, which render them very pleasant and healthy in summer, and very convenient at all times. The un- paralleled health of our city and surrounding country, having for years been so good, that we can with great proprety invite persons who wish to find a healthful retreat, to spend the summer with us. We have Mineral Spring, two miles from the city, to which ma ny have resorted during the two last summers, WHO all Sl)tdh liSHlv oi ilo pShShto eo ''Nh health. To such this house would be plea sant home, as it has suits of apartments in entire private situations for the accommoda- tion of families, with private tables to such as prefer them. The proprietor hopes his cx- ertion 10 please will render his house plea sant residence to such as favor him with their patronage,
 To this establishment belongs very exten- sive stables, which will always be stored with the best of provender, and attended by ho- nest, industrious, and skiful ostlers, with convenient tot for droves, S<c.
 Notwithstanding my expectation to be per manent in the business, owing to the contne- ment, &c., l am disposed to sell out the es- tablishment, but the business being proiita- ble one, will by no means neglect the vigilant prosecution of it, because l am offering to sell, but will rather be more attentive than other wise. This establishment affords also one of the best stands for merchandise in the place, and has very fneFfnished rooms for that hu siness, attached to which is very fine watre proof cellar.
 As do not propose selling for the purpose of raising money particularly, will extend the credit to great length of time-the mo ney being well secured, and the interest paid annually.
 also, have several tracts of land, and some lots in this place, which would sell on very extensive credits JOHN MEEK.

C.,...6 of Mr., Foot, on the General ApprO-
.,r;of;on Bill in the Senate of the U. STATES.
Mr.. Foot said, we are indeed fallen on evil
times. The application Of the e searching
0DeratiOn," mentioned by Gen. jackson in the
Inaugural ddress, has become indispensable to
save the Treasury from Bankruptcy. The Sy.
rem song Of retrenchment, economy and reform.
has IOst its fascinating charms. Broad and bOld
assertions win no longer be received as proof
Of economy, while the public documents
prove them to be false-the people will no
iongrr be deceived by these hackneyed terms
nor can the present Administration be
screened from censure by charging their pre-
decessors with wasleful extravaganza,
when the documents furnish convincing proof,
that the present is the most extravagaat ad-
m;nis:ration which has ever welded the des
tinies Of the nation. He called the attention
of the Senate to the documents in proof of
his assertions, and presented a statement Ia
ken from the printed reports frem the De-
partmeuts, from which he gave the compare
tive expenditures between the two last years
of MIR. Adams administration, and the two
Rrst Of General Jackson's.
