PROSPECTUS
OF THE
FARMERS GAZETTE
AND CIIERAW ADVERTISER.

THE Editor of the Cheraw Gazette has
determined, at the ~uggestion of the Pee
Dee Agricultural Society, to devote more
space than formerly to Agriculture, and
matters pertaining specially to its interests.
About nine columns, or page and hall
weekly, will be occupied with this SUBJ
ject, except when it shall be necessary TO
make room for Executive Messages, and
few other political papers such as every
intelligent citizen ought to read. A large
proportion Of what shall appear under the
Agricultural head must, Of course, be se-
ected. But the numerous Agricultural
periodicals now published in this country
afford .bundant and excellent materials
for selections; and, after short time, the
reports, and other papers of the Pee Dee
Agricultural Society v i'll themselves, form
no considerable body Of original matter,
all of it adapted particularly TO this part
OF the country. And it is hoped, also,
that among the numerous intelligent and
enterprsrg planters of the surrounding
districts and counties some may be found
who will, occasionally, take the trouble
of contributing 10 the columns of the Pa
per the result Of their experience.
Among the subjects which will engage
the Editors attention the culture of silk
shall not be overlooked. Ample instruc-
tions will be given, in their proper season,
for cultiyating the morus multicauliS and
aking silk.
The paper will espouse The cause Of no
party in politics, but shall contain an i'm
martial summary of political intelligence
and, occasionally, able speeches and well
written essays (when mel wilh) fairly dis.
cussing the principles and measures of all
parties. 1t is believed that comparative
ly small space devoted to political subjects
in this way may be made more profitable
TO the Farmer Of domestic habits, who
wishes to be acquainted with the true state
Of the country and qualified for proper
and intelligent discharge Of the duties Of
citizenship, than whole sheet filled, from
week TO week, and year to year, with one-
sided discussions, and the mere quarrels
of editors and politicians, whilst, al the
same time, it will rot be calculated to es-
strange ncighbor from neighbor, or to
.nisleod into belief that one half of the
country are less patriotic than the other,
or l.ss ardcufy attached to our republican
institutions.
So much Of the fourth page as shall no
be occupied with standing advertisement
will generally be filled up with matter
m,ral aud religious cast, ard articles
conducive, in other respects, to proper
family instruction and family discipline.
