TRY, enough is pubIished--sometimes
OF no mean strain-to manifest and cul-
tivate the growing poetical taste and tai
ents Of our country.
The times appear, for several rea-
sons, TO demand such work--not one
alone, but many. The public mind is
feverished and irritated still, from re-
cent political striles. The soft, assua-
sive influence Of Literature is needed
10 allay that fever, and soothe that irri-
tation. Vice and folly are rioiing abroad
they should be driven by indignant re-
buke, or dashed by ridicule, into their
fitting haunts Ignorance lords il over
an immense proportion Of our people.
Every spring should be set in motion,
TO arouse The enlightened, and to in
crease their number; so that the great
enemy of popular government may no
longer brood, like a pertentous cloud,
over the destinies Of our country. And
to accomplish all these ends, what
more powerful can be employed, than a
periodical, on the plan Of the Messen-
ger; if that plan be carried out in prac-
tice?
The South peculiarly requires such
an agent. In all the Union, south Of
Washington, there are but two Lilera-
ry periodicals! Northward Of that
city, there are at least twenty five or
thirty! Is this contrast justified by the
wealth, the leisure, the native talent, or
the actual literary taste, of the Southern
people, compared with those of the
Northern? No; for in wealth talents
and taste, we may justly claim at least
an equality with our brethren; and a
domestic institution exclusively our
own, beyond all doubt affords us, if we
choose, twice the leisure for reading
and writing, which they enjoy.
1t was from deep sense Of this 10

cngrafted on the name Of this period.

mutual kindness and affection. Far
from meditating HOSTILITY to the North,
he has already drawn, and he hopes
hereafter to draw, much of his choicest
matter thence; and happy indeed will
he deem himself, should his pages, by
making each region know the other
better, contribute in any essential de-
gree, to dispel forever the lowering
clouds :hat SO lately threatened the
peace of both, and to brighten and
strengthen the sacred ties Of fraernal
love.
The Southern Literary Messenger
has now nearly completed its seventh
volume, and seventh year. How far it
has acted out the ideas here uttered,
it is not for the Editor TO say. lie be-

BOSTON NOTION
AND
ERAHAN,S MAGAZINE,
For ONLY S5,OO!!

We have made arrangements with
the cn,crprising publisher OF GRAHAM s
MAGAZINE, by which we are enabled TO
offer their Magazine and the Boston No
ton for one year, for only jfre dollars!
1t is idle for us here to enter into
detail of the superior character OF Ora
hams Magazine--it has in one year ac-
quired celebrity and extent Of clrcula-
ton beyond that Of any periodical IN the
world. For the year 1912, the Maya
zine is TO be increased in the number of
it's pages, and other important and val
liable attractions are to be added oft.
The next new works of BULWER,
DICKENS, and JAMES, will be repub-
iished in the Boston Melton, quarto and
folio editions. Heretofore, the works Of
these great authors have been almost
entirely inaccessible to country readers,
owing to the difficulties in receiving them
in book form. By subscribing for the
Boston Notion, you will obtain the works
of these master minds at about one tenth
of what they would otherwise cost you.
NEW SUBSCRIBERS TO THE QUARTO.
We will furnish copies of the Quarto
Notion No. l, to all who may wish it
a few numbers only having as yet been
published-and the two volumes at the
end Of the year will contain 832 pages,
a sheet Of contents and title page TO each
volume.
Upon renting SIS to Mr.. Graham,
Of Philadelphia, publisher Of the Maya
zine, or to the undersigned, copy of
the Boston Notion lquar;o or folio edi
tion) and Graham's Magazine for l842,
will be forwarded to you. The Quarto
Notion will be sent you from No. I, il
you wish it. GEO. ROBERTS,
Publisher Of Boston Notion.

NEW YORK WE K KY
TRIBUNE.
PROSPECTUS.

= TRIBUNE, encouraged by the gene
rous patronage and hearty approval
which has been extended to their Dali
ly paper since It's establishment, and
which already renders it the second
in point of circulation in the city, pro-
pose to publish, on and after the 18th
day of September, a WEEKLY edition,
on Il sheet Of mammoth size, excluding
all matter OF local or transitory inter-
est, and calculated mainly for Country
circulation.
The TRIBuNE-whethcr in its Daily
or Weekly Edition--will be what its
name imports-an unainching supper
ter of the Peoples Rights and Inter
ests, in stern hostility to the errors Of
superficial theorists, the influences of
unjust or imperfect legislation, and the
schemes and sophistres Of scll-secking
demagogues. 1t will s,renuously advo-
cate the Protection OF AMERICAN In
DUsTRY against the grasping and 10 US
blighting policy of European Govern
ments, and the unequal competition
which they force upon us, as also
against the present depressing system
of State Prison Labor; it will advocate
the restoration of sound and uniform
NATIONAL CURRENCY; and urge dis
Greet but determined prosecution of
Internal Improvement. The Retrench-
ment, wherever practicable, of Gov
eminent Expenditure and Of Executive
Patronage, will be zealously urged. In
short, this paper will faithfully main
tain and earnestly advocate the Princi-
pies and Measures which the People
approved in desolving on Wing States
men the conduct Of their Government.
But small portion, however, of It's
columns will be devoted to purely Polit-
ical discussions. The proceedings OF
Congress will be carefully recorded;
the Foreign and Domestic Intelligence
will be early and lucidIy presented; and
whatever shall appear calculated to
promote Morality, maintain Social Or
der, extend theblessings of Education,
or in any way subserve the great cause
Of Human Progress to ultimate Virtue,
Liberty and Happiness, will find place
in our columns.
The WEEKLY TRIBUNE will be pub
lished evry Saturday morning, in quarto
form, on very large imperial sheet,
(3l by 80 inches.) and afforded to
subscribers at TWO DOLLARS n
year. Six copies will be forwarded
year for TEN DOLLARS. Ten copies
for FIFTEEN DOLLARS, any larger
number in the latter proportion. Pay
mcnt in advance will be invariably re-
CURED, and the paper stopped when
e'er the tc rm of such payment cxpir

AMERICAN SILK.

We have been shown specimens Of the
silk manufactured at the establishment
of Mr. J. w. Gill, Of Mount Pleasant, JEFF
'erson county, o., which are in the
highest degree creditable 10 American
skill and industry. The articles consist
Of two pairs Of close pantaloons,t 1.-The one
red and the other blue, such ds are
worn upon the stage, and were made for
MIR Forrest the tragedian, We re not
Judges of this kind of fabric, and cannot,
therefore, say how this American silk
will compare with that of Europe but
we can say, that the articles we have
seen are strong in their texture, exceed
ing y neat and beautiful in appearance
pleasant 10 the touch, and, what is quite
as important as either, sold at Just one
half the price Of foreign fabrics of the
same description. The establishment
OF Mr. Gill is very prosperous las the de.
mand for his goods is every day rapid v
! Increasing.
This paragraph we cut from the Eve
nlng Post the last paper in which we
should have expected ever TO see it.
Heretofore, that print with it's Free
Trade Conlederates, has thought the
idea of raising silk in America sufficient
y Iudicrous 10 serve as a stan ling Jest
against the friends of Protection 10
AMERICAN industry. Mr. Woodbury., in
his Tabernacle discourse, was pafticu

OF aEmostiexcellont and beau iGu quality
may be manufactured in this country

bids the hope that we may at no very
distant day supply ourselves with this
important fabric, instead of beiE z longer
dependent upon foreign nations. We
