light literature and poetry
HUGH X. PLEAsANTs, Principal Editor.
II 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 Vlrglnians, and they hope TO merit and re-
ceive the encouragement of their fellow-citiz ems
They enter upon no mere speculation in their en-
terprize, nor are their views and opinions shaped
merely 70 eaten the popular breeze. From edu-
cation, from position, from association, from in
terest, nom choice, they are Southern men, Their
defence or Southern rights is defence of them
selves and all they hold dear;-that it has been
warm unremitting, and far as their capacity al
lowed, vigorous, no man who has read their shee
will deny. To doubt that it will continue to be
so Is to presume that the principles and ideas
which have been instiIled into them from their
birth, can be eradicated, at period of life when
men rarely change their views They. at least
knowi to be impossible.
NEThe low price at which the paper is pub
hshed requires that the subscription be paid al
