erature, both Of periodical and general character;
and it is spoken to discredit, that seem to be
lndsposed to such efforts would give us the dis
tinguishcd reputation in Literature which we possess
in Patriotism. While the Press of the North is
teeming with Books and Periodicals of every sort,
little or no encouragement is given 10 works OF
Southern issue. Our publishing facilities unim
portant, and afford encouragement whatever to
Southern authorship. Aud what is still more humili
ating, the works Of Southern writers and artists, in
stead Of giving character to section of country by
being issued from the Southern press, sent to the
North for publication, thereby enhancing the Itera-
ry reputation of the North, while is suffered
to languish for the want of proper support
1t is for the purpose of cfccting desirable and
necessary change in this condition Of affairs, that the
Mary land Association is formed 1t is in many of
lie features, similar to the American Institute OF New
York and TO the Franklin Institute of Philadelphia
institutions which have been Cf great benefit to
the States in which they are located. Under the
fostering Of these Associations the Useful Arts
have tlourished, and in many Of their departments
discoveries and improvements have been made,
which, but for the encourage mcns they offered and
the emulation produced, might have remained un-
known. That similar efforts may produce similar
results in Mary land, cannot be doubtcd and it is
earnestly hoped that citizens may embrace and
improve the present favorable opportunity to accom-
pllsh the desired end

WORTHY OF ATTENTION.

We have received a Circular from the officers Of
"THE MARYLAND ASSOCIATION FOR THE ENcoUR-
AGEMENr OF LITERATURE AND THE ARTs,'' from
which we make the following extract-and wish sue
cess to, and will assist as far as consistently can
in carrying into effect, the enterprise.
An Association has been formed in this city, cnti-
tied "THE MARYLAND ASSOCIATION FOR THE En-
coURAGEMENT OF LITERATURE AND THE ARTs;''
the objects OF which are the promotion and encour-
agemcnt of Literature Manufactures, the Mechanic
and Useful Arts, including Agriculture, and its kin
dred pursuits-thc Fine Arts
These objects TO be carried out upon the follow
ing plan of operations:
|. BY the establishment of Popular Lectures and
the preparing and reading of such Papers and Reports
may be interesting and profitable.
III. BY the formation of such Schools as may be de-
srable, and the publication of Books, Pamphlets, and
Reports.
iii. BY the establishment of General Museum,
and formation of Cabinets of Models, Minerals, Nat
ural History; Chemical and Anatomical Prepare
tons, and Library.
Nv. By holding Exhibitions and Fairs.
V. BY the examination of New Inventions and
Discoveries, and reporting upon their merits.
vi. BY awarding Premiums and Certificates to i'm
portant and mertorious Objects and by any other
means that may be deemed advisable.
The importance of such an Association to the City
of Baltimore and State of Maryland must be appa-
rent to every observing mind. With abundant re-
TO the mortfyng admission, that in our Literary
Pursuits and encouragement of the Mechanic and
Elegant Arts, we far below the position ought
TO occupy, and to which proper use and application
of abilities would certainly entle us. Ii is well
known that in inventive genius and skill for sprac
teal application, Mechanics are not surpassed,
neither in this nor any other country. But the dis
advantages under which they labor are very great,
and for the want of proper incentives to action they
are no doubt frequently deferred from efforts, which,
il put FORTH might tend the elevation Of their cha
ractcr, and be of great service to mankind. And
Notwithstanding these disadv antagcs they have made
inventions and improvements which have been re-
ceved with favor, and many of them have met with
deserved applause. Multtudes now in posses
sion of the fruits of their exertions, and rejoicing in
the increased convcnicnccs and comforts they afford.
