4 Family Journal of Literature and Ne,os for
 Southern Readers.
 THE South has too long been dependent upon the Il northern cities for its periodical literature. The weekly newspapers of Boston, New York and Pha- delpha, have swept like flood over that part of the nation south of Mason and Dixon's line many of them carrying with them some of the preiudices of abotlonism; and intoxicating, to greater less ex tent doctrines injurious to southern institutions This dependence of She mass of southern readers should be thrown of-and it is believed would have been long ago. there had been facilities in the South for the publicatiorsof first class literay papers.
 The Spectator,
 Is published by gentleman who has long been con neeted with some of the southern dailies, and has been undertaken to supply this want-that of high toned weekly paper
 Of Southern interest and character. The general plan of the papcris follows: It has eight pages; three of which are filled with the best articles on Literature Science and the Arts: one to the editors comments upon passing themes; one to general news foreign and donestic one to the inter ests of the Farmer the information on this page will be mainly derived from the agricultural Bureau of the U. $. Patent Officel; to synopsis of the operations of the Departments of the Government: and one, during the winter to a report of the pro- ceedings of Congress; altogether making plan which will be rgdly adhered to, and which is unequalled by any paper in the country, North or South
 The SPECTATOR is printed type and on fine paper Its quarto form makes it convenient for bind ing, and each annual volume being accompanied preservation and reference.
 Subscription, Two dollars year. Nopaper is sent without the money. Specimen copies can be had on application to AUG. F. HARVEY,
