PROSPECTUS
FOR THE THIRD VOLUME OF THE
IIBGRISY' ADVOCATE
J.J. Graves & j. NJ. Smiley, Editors.

Notwithstanding the unparalleled pres.
sure, which for the last twelve months, has
crampcd and trammclled every depart.
ment of the Mechanical, Agricultural and
Commercial community, the unwearied
and interchangeable energies of American
enterprise, are once more giving evidence
of higher and fairer prospect before US.
That qulescent attribute, which, for time,
seemed to mark and designate our down
ward procliyity to careIessness and indif-
terence, has fortunately awakened from
Its sluggish apathy; and partially dsin-
thralled from the fatal influence Of too
blind credulty in the infallibility Of
those whom we have elevated above us,
may we not still indulge the hope, that
there is yet held in reserve, happy re.
suit in the experiment of this last and
once purest Of Republics?
lnstlgated, in part, by that grand reyol-
ution which has already commenced, and
which is still going on in the opinion Of
the people, so far as respects the political
relations existing between the respective
States and the Federal Government, the
present Proprietor is about to embark in
the publication of the Liberty Advocate.
Two years ago, this journal dated its
origin, at period when, in this County,
1t had many difficulties to encounter, and
the strongest opposition to contend with.
The enduring, and, as we conceive, ortho
dox principles, which have nurtured and
sustained the journal through "good and
through evil report" had then in their in
fancy, but mere minority which sustained
1t. But, the resistless march Of human
reason, before whose advance all obsta-
ces must ultimately recede, has brought
about brighter and fairer dawn; and
he philanthropist and the patriot can
low look in prospective upon the re-
visit OF those purer days, which once
pointed to the destiny of our much be-
owed country.
The political creed of the Advocate VIII
DO the same which it has heretofore ad-
'ocated State Rights and State SoUer'
ignty, will be the arterial action which
hall give life and animation to its polit
al character. while exercising a te'
acity for those principles which will new
r yield to caprice, the columns ofthis jour.
al will, at all times, be open to liberal
iscussion, and offered as ready channel
, the tide of passing events, and an &C.
eptable organ of general science and use
il knowledge.
We cordially invite the patronage Of all
lose who concur with us in sentiments
ell as the magnanimity of those who DIS
mt from us in politics, to cooperate in sus-
lining the press. The Advocate willm
turc appear, under the Editorial superv-
on of J. J. GRAVES a. J. M. SMILEY, Esqrs'
ID published on the same terms ofthe for
er numbers, by
January 6, 1888.

OF
THE WEEKLY PICAYUNE.

THE WEEKLY PICAYUNE
In consequence of the popularity which
our daily paper has gained in all sections
Of the country, and the numerous de-
mands we are receiving from all quarters
for weekly journal, we have determined
on starting one of that description, to be
entitled the "THE WEEKLY PICAYUNE"
To adopt the same figurative style used
in our first prospectus, we have fitted out
the "Picaytae" for more distant voyages,
and freighted her with all sorts of notions
in the shape of readableS; and if the same
success attends her which she has met
with while coasting nearer home, we shall
doubtless receive rich returns.
To prepare our little craft for the more
extended sea on which she is destined to
move, we have put on her many additions
and improvements. Some of her old tim
bers have been taken out and replaced by
new--she has greater measurement fore
and aft, a greater length of beam, and her
sheets have been materially enlarged.
Notwithstanding the Increased size, the
public may rest assured that the 'Picayune'
will be enabled to work in Shoal water with
the same facility as heretofore, and form
channels of communication which it would
be folly for the dull, heavy vessels at pres
ent sailing this port to navigate.
Commission merchants and others hay
ing freight in the shape of advertisements
to ship for the country trade, would do
well to send them on board our clipper, as
she is up for every city in the U. States,
and all intermediate landings.
We reiterate to those fanatical pirates
who cruise under the black fag-who op.
pose slavery because they are themselves
the slaves Of ignorance and superstition
who pretend to rub clean the upper decks
of their neighbors with a holy stone-we
say look out for breakers.
To Hotel keepers we recommend our
paper; in every engagement her comman-
der will be first to lead on the boarders!,
TO the Heads of Families the trim APP
pearance of our craft will be an object of
interest Most married folks have expe.
'ienced the effects Of light-sparring.
We shall endeavor TO make those SNUG
ylers, the Bachelors, heave to-show them
he advantages Of the proper "compaaion-
cag" recommending double state-room,
With births, &c.
We shall send our boat aboard Theatri-

The extensive and growing interest o
the Southwest, its moral and social i'm
provement, and its increasing literary ant
scientific demands, have awakened atten
ton to the fact that in this highly impor
tant portion Of our country there is M
journal or paper so exclusively devoted tc
literature and science, advocating the doc
trines of no party.
Feeling the necessity of such paper
the Jefferson College and Washington Ly-
ceum have commenced the publication OF
periodical entitled "THE SoUTH-WEs-
TERN JOURNAL" to be devoted to litera-
ture and science, and all subjects interest
ing to the general reader.
It is published semi-monthly, in the CT
ty of Natchez, 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 pecuniary point of view.
The sole object is to advance knowledge
and diffuse taste for the refined enjoy
ments of literature and science.
Nothing is now wanting to the accom-
pllshment of the wishes Of the Lyceum
but the patronage of the community; and
1t is expected that this patronage will be
promptly and cheerfully 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 all
cases IN Advance.
The first number Of this paper is dated
December Is, 1887, and it will be contin-
ned semi-monthly from that date.
