PROSPECTUS FOR THE
SOUTH WESTERN JOURNAL.


SCIENCE, LITERATURE AND MISCELLANY.
Published Semi-Monthly, by the
Jefferson College and Washington Lyceum.
NHE extensive and growing interest of
- the South West, its moral and social
improvement, and its increasing literary
and scientific demands, have awakened at
teniion to the fact that in this highly impor-
tant portion of our country there is no Jour-
nal or paper so exclusively devoted to liter
ature and science, advocating the doctrines
of no party.
Feeling the necessity Of such paper r,
the Jefferson College and Washington Ly-
ceum have commenced the publication of a
periodical entitled "THE SoUrH-W WESTERN
JOURNAL" to be devoted to literature and
science, and all subjects interesting to the
general reader.
1t is published semi-monthy, in the city
of Natchez, and contains sixteen small quar-
to pages, similar in form to the "Penny
Magazine" and is protected by good en-
velope, so that it may be conveyed to any
distance without injury.
II will be remembered that we have 10
work in the South West similar to this; and
every one who feels pride in any enter
PRISE calculated to enhance the social and
moral character of eur country, should come
forward and assist in this worthy enterprise
fecunlary emolument constitutes no part
OF the object of this publication. It is not
intended to beneitany individual or the Ly-
eeum IN pecuniary point of view. The
sole object is to advance knowledge and diff.
fuse taste for the refined enioymonts of
literature and science.
Nothing is now wanting to the accom-
plshment of the wishes of the Lvceum but
the patronage of the community; and il is
expected that this patronage will be prompt
ly and cheerfully extended.
All communications in reference to the
periodical should be addressed, post paid to
Professor J. A. VAN HoESsEN, the Secretary
of the Lyeeum, Natchez, Mississippi. The
subscription price So 90, IN all cases in Gd
pdnce.
The first number Of this paper is dated
December Is, 1887, and it win be continu-
Dae-monthly from that date.

P,prIEs.-Much has been said, and much
.;,san anon the subject Of parties, and we
a. hear n asserted that the fair fabric Of
- American Union, is to be rent asunder
- marty violence. Independent, however,
he great conservative principle which
,ists n the Federal Constitution, much is to
g boned from the virtue and intelligence Of
AZ neople. In all liberal governments there
iii be parties. They resul! from the ma
tlre of liberty, and are necessary to its pre-
servation. Itis only when the heart is brn-
hEzed by the dullness of sensibiity, and the
mind degraded by ignorance; and when,
therefore, the hard hand of irresponsible
power, bears down upon the high destlnles
of our nature, that parties do not exist; the
waveless calm is more to be dreaded than
the agitations of the tempest; and were the
mighty ocean unrufiled by the storm, il
would become stagnant pool, whose pesti-
lential vapours would sweep from the earth
every vestige of humanity, or the earth IL
self become one great lazaar-house of hu-
man misery. As the latent spark is by fric-
ton, stricken from the steel, so is truth eli
cited and principle established by the con-
fict of mind and tho collision of sentiment.
"Truth is OmnipOtent and pHblicjHstice GER
tain. :"
The spirit of disorganlzation was for a
while triumphant. The administration of
Gen. Jackson had brought upon the country
unparalleled distress; and we had nothing
to hope from that of Van Buren,; but light
has at length, burst upon the people;
CLAY and a WEBSTER have come "to
the rescue" The people will sustain them;
public opinion, the mighty lever that wields
the destnies of Republics, has already
doomed the present administration. 1t has
been weighed in the balance and found
wanting; its days are numbered.--Lering
