Liberty advocate. [volume] (Liberty, Miss.) 1835-1866, 1838-07-21

The extensive and growing interest o
the Southwest, its moral and social i'm
provement, and its increasing literary anc
scientific demands, have awakened atten
ton to the fact that in this highly impor
tant portion of our country there is nc
journal or paper so exclusively devoted tC
literature and science, advocating the doc,
trines of noparty. t.t
Feeling the necessity Of such paper,
the Jefferson College and Washington Ly-
ceum have commenced the publication OF
periodical entitled CHE SOUTH IVES
TERN JOURNAL" to be devoted to litera-
ture and science, and all subjects interest
ing to the general reader.
1t is published semi-monthly, in the CT
ty of Natehez, and contains sixteen small
qnarto pages, similar i'll form to the "Pen-
ny Magazine" and is protected by good
envelope, so that it may be conveyed to
any distance without injury.
1t will be remembered that we have no
work in the Southwest similar to this;
and every one who feels pride in any en-.
terprise calculated to enhance the social
and moral character ofour country, should
come forward and assist in this worthy
enterprise.
Pecuniary emolument constitutes no part
of the object of this duplication. 1t is not
intended to benefit any individual or the
Lyceum in a pecuniary point of view.
The sole object is to advance knowledge
and diifuse taste for the refined enjoy
ments of literature and science.
Nothing is now wanting to The accom-
plishment of the wishes of the Lyceum
but the patronage Of the community; and
it is expected that this patronage will be
promptly and cheerfuly extended.
All communications in reference to the
periodical should be addressed, post paid,
to Professor J. A. VAN HoEssEN, the Sec
rotary of the Lyceum, Natchez, Mississip-
pi The subscription price SIS 90, in az
cases IN ddCaRce
The first number Of this paper is dated
December Is, 1887, and it will be contin-
ned semi-monthy from that date.

son. In future it will be kept by them, un.
der the direction of the former, who will
devote his undivided attention to it, rem
dering it in all respects what it should be,
comfortable retreat for all. His cxpe-
rience in public line is well known--it
enables him to say, without fear Of disap-
pointment, to all, you will be as comfort
ably entertained at the Liberty Hotel as
you can be any where. Horses will be
carefully attended to-we have commodi-
Gus stables where we can accommodate
drovers q others who may call with every
thing in that lne-plenty of provender.
As for our table, beds, and other things
appertaining to the Hotel, we say they
are good, but do not take our word for it,
come and try and judge for yourselves.
And then, our LIQUoRs too, try and you III swear,
Their better you've not found any where;
We have Ctder, delicious Cider, here,
Rich to the taste, and as the amber, clea-;
Wine too we have, of all the better sort,
Madeira, Claret, Tenerife and Port.
We've high proof spirits, Gin and Brandy rich;
And Whisky, old Monongahela and Peach.
OF these men need not speak, for we defy them
Totell how good they are before they try them.
The undersigned have also lately pur-
chased the stand known as M'DoweIl's
Tavern. In adding this spacious house,
yard, stables, DC. to their other accommo-
datons, they can say their means are more
ample than any before ever could boast
Of in Liberty for the reception of custo-
mers and the public. Owing to this ar
they are able also to accommo-
date many boarders in addition to the
number they are now accommodating
They say to the public, we solicit your

EDUCATION OF FEMALEs.-Since there is a
season when the youthful must cease to be young.
and the beautiful to excite admiration TO learn to
grow old gracefully, is perhaps one Of the rarest
and most valuable arts that can be taught to wo-
man. And, it must be confessed, it is most
severe trial for those women to lay down beauty,
who have nothing else to take up. 1t is for this
sober reason Of life that education should lay up
It's rich treasures. However disregarded they
may have been, they will be wanted now.
When admirers fall away, and hatterers become
mute, the mind will be driven to retire into itself.
and if it find no entertainment at home, it will be
driven again upon the world with increasing force.
Yet, forgetting this, do we not seem to educate
our daughters exclusively for the transient period
Of youth! Do we not educate them for crowd
and not for themselves! For show and not for
Use! For time and not for eternity?-lKrs.
Moore.

ESvY.-The greatest food has the soonest
ebb; the sorest tempest the most sudden calm,
the hottest love the coolest end; and from the
deepest desire often times ensues the deadliest
hate. A wise man had rather be envied for pro-
violence than pitird for prodigality. Revenge
harketh only 1.-THE stars and spite spurns at that
sue cannot reach. An envious man waxeth lean
with the fatness Of his neighbours.--Envy is the
Daughter OF Piitle, the author Of murder and
revenge, the beginner Of secret sedition, and the
perpetual torm-ntor of virtue. Envy is the
hithy sediment of the soul, venom, poison,
or quicksllver which consumtth the flesh, and
drieth up the marrow Of the bones.

THE YOUNG LOVERS.

She was a witchine creature. Ger her head
Scarce eighteen summers, on bright wings had flown
Into whose spirit Poetry had shed
Her sweetest ordo,s. breathed fresh from her own;
Pure modesty around her light form spread
Her spotess drapery. and like zone
Beauty encrcled her, for her wild gances
Spell bound all hearts in sweet bewildering frances.
Her beauty Of a mysterious kind
Battling the pencil that its charms would trace,
For the rich depths Of her illuinin'd mind
Such atting CLEANS gave TO her love oned face
That the spell taken eye could ever find
Some charm unseen before, willowy grace
Play'd in the movements of her form Just moulded
Into soft roundness like a uniolded.
Her step was lighter than the wanton breeze
That breahes its love -sighs to the dreamy hours,
And graceful as light vapours DER the seas
Melting away in soft and dewy showers.
While with simple grace, and natural ease,
She half reclined upon bed of flowers,
Over her shoulder rain bow like there bended
youth, whose sighs with her breathings blended
He was a being cen more glorious still,
TIE seal OF genius on his brow seen,
With thoughts bright the dews that flowers dstil,
When leaves dance in the starlight fresh and green.
His a voice rich barp's deep thrill,
A large dark eagle eye and noble men,
Yet with heart so tuned to soest measures,
His very face beamed forth bewilderng pleasures.
As DER her dropping form he softly bent,
The pressure of his lip on her brow,
While TO her cheek the warm blood came and went,
Varying each moment with her rich thoughts flow,
For each within her heaving bosom pent
Seemed struggling her up. turned face to glow,
While tell tale dlm2es in her checks appearing,
Told that sweet e-thought her heart stirring
For closely round that young and happy pair
Passion had wove her soltest sweetest ties
While like two spirits fresh from heaven, there
/ They sat beneath their own blue native skies,
| He playing with some stray y-tress of her hair,
And gazing mutely in her melting eyes,
While from their glowing gIances both drinking
The passionate love that in their hearts sinking.

THE JESTER CONDEMNED TO DEATH
One of the Kings of Scanderoon,
A royal Jester,
Had III his train gross buiToon,
Who used to poster
The Court with tricks inopportune,
Venting on the highest folks his
Scurvy pleasantries and hoaxes.
II needs some sense to play the fool
Which wholesome rule
Occnrr'd not to our jackanapes,
Who consequently found his freaks
Lead to innnmerable scrapes,
A nd quite as many kicks and tweaks,
Which only seeln'd to make him faster
Try the patience of his master.
Some sin at last, beyond all measure,
lncurr'd the desperate dispeasnre
Of his serene and raging highness,
Whether he twitch'd his most revered
Aud sacred beard,
Or had intrnded on the shyness
OF the Seraglio, let fly
An cpigram at royalty,
None knoWs;-his sin was an occult one:
Bnt records tell rs that the Sultan,
Meaning TO terrify the knave,
'd-s'Tis time to stop that breath;
Thy doom is seal'd;-- presnmptuons slave!
Thou stand'st condrlnn'd to certain death.
Silence, base rebel mo replying!-
But such is my indulgence still,
That of my own free grace and will,
leave TO thee the mode Of iying.'
Thy royal will be done-'tis lust'
Replied the wretch, and kissd the dust;
Since. my last moments to assuage,
Your Maiesty's humane decree
Has deignd TO leave the choice TO me,
Ill die, SO please you, of old age!
