.st rUDLishED IN hlCHhOhD, NIk0lNiA,
At the loso price Of ONE DOLLAR per ann,sn,
the cheapest weekly newspaper south Of the
/ Potomac, and as cheap ns any in the Union.
This paper is made up chiefly from the Daily
Dispatch, consisting Of the entertaining and
news matter Of that sheet, and carefully selected
light literature and poetry. t+t.. la3 t.at,
HUGH r. PLEAsANrs, Principal Editor.
Il is designed to make it equal to any Weekly
sheet in the Union for its general interest In
tone and sentiment, it is Southern--its conductors
are Virginians, and they hope to merit and re-
ceve the encouragement of their fellow-citzens.
They enter upon no mere speculation in their en-
terprize, nor are their views and opinions shaped
merely to catch the popular breeze. From edu-
cation, from position, from association, from in
terest, from choice, they are Southern men. Their
defence of Southern rights is a defence of them
selves and all they hold dear;--that it has been
warm unremitting and as far as their capacity al
lowed, vigorous, no man who has read their sheet
viii deny. To doubt that it will continue to be
so is TO presume that the principles and ideas
which have been instilled into them from their
birth, can be eradicated, at a period of life when
men rarely change their views They, at least
know il to be impossible.
ITThe low price at which the paper is pub
lished requires that the subscription be paid al
,cays in Advance.

EDITED BY AN ASSOCIATION OF LITERARY MEN.
JINDER this title will be published, during the
~ year 1850, twenty -four Portraits and Biographi-
cal Sketches OF American citizens W no have become
iustrious in the service OF the country Every por-
ton OF the work will receive the most careful atten-
ton, and nothing will be spared to render IL worthy
mad enduring monument to the great men Of The Re
public f.
Mr. Brady has been many years engaged at great
expense, collecting Portraits National Gal
lery, and those which being engraved for this
work are believed TO be superior TO any that have
been taken. In the accomplishment: Of this great
object he has experienced the utmost courtesy and
encouragement from distinguished men Mr.. Brady's
reputation has been too long established to need any
recomme ndaiion His daguerreotypes are in the
highest the works at art, glowing with the soul
of the living oountenance.
The drawings and engravings OF D'Avignon have
been pronounced by Europeans Of taste to be fully
equal and in respects superior to those Of the
best artists OF London and Paris and every i'm
preston in this Gallery viii be taken under his inn
mediate supervision. The Typography will be exc
cuted as carefully and in as superb style az the en-
cravings themselves. The entire work viii be on
the Rnes, imperial folio paper, i6 by 70 irchcs, made
expressly for this purpose.
This work has nothing sectional in its scope ; il
win therefore be comprehensive in its spirit. The
names of those men only admitted whose talents
and public services have for them honorable
fame throughout the nation. Each of the great de
partments of life VIII have its representatives. Art
and Literature universal in their spirit, and the
Gallery is intended to be worthy and enduring

achievements and fame constitute the chief glory of
the nation We hope that every lover Of Art, and
friend of our glorious Union will respond to ap-
peal for encouragement and aid in 50 copmcndable
undertaking, that its publication may make IN
