PROSPECTUS.
Tits a wcll-known fact that the South is ow
almost entirely dependent on the North for it's
hebdomdai literature. IL is to be seen whether
the Souihern States cannot support literary
journal of their own. The parties undertaking
this new enterprise are determined to spare no
effort or expense to produce apaper which shall
effect this purpose, and deserve share OF the
reading public. Such paper it is hoped, will
arouse the somewhat dormant literary condition
OF our city, dcvelope its inactive talent, and Of
fer at our own doors vehicle for the express
sion of thought, interchange Of ideas, and the
imparting Off new terms of information.
The FAMILY JOURNAL will contain Original
Stories, Sketches of travel, Biographical Essays
Summary of News, domestic aud Foreign, Re-
views ofBooks; DR. imatic and Musical CRITICS SINS
Reports of Popular Lectures and such general
information as will make it a welcome guest in
every family. The proprietors are determined
that their journal shall be second to none in
the variety, interest, and value of its contents,
in its literary excellence and high moral tone.
Politics and Sectarianism will be most rgidiy
excluded. Particular attention paid to ssans
swers to correspondents, - talented gen tleman
having been specially engaged for that purpose.
Arrangements having been made with dis
tnguished corps of american contributors, and
negotiations are still in progress, which will u-
tmatey secure tho best talent in tho country
1t is intended that tho literary matter in this

me LATE non MIKE WALSH

From the New York Evening Express, March nj
The birth place Of Hon. Mike Walsh has always been .
matter OF doubt, though he claimed 10 have been born IN
the Third ward, where his father for a number Of yeaTs
kept a mahogany yard. He was born In the year isl5'
and was consequently forty -four years of age at Che tina
of his death. Though he had no great advantages j,
education he had great natural ability, which in after Ba
enabled him TO overcome what might have been ~
Tious defect. He was brought up 10 aud learned tina
trade OF a photographer, at which be was considered opo
of the best mechanics ia the city. The first shop A
which he worked was that Of David Felt, the wholesale
stationer. The irst known of Mr.. Walsh 10 political cir
Giles was In 1889, when he was brought before the county
nominating convention as a candidate for the assembly.
and was elected by a handsome majority.
In 1910 Mr.. Walsh published and edited a weekly ma
per called the Knickerbocker, the existence OF which after
a few years was terminated by the conviction Of the ei
tor for a libel published In its columns. About the year
1876 Mr.. Walsh edited another weekly newspaper enu.
tied the Subterranean, which was published Tor two or
three years only. In the year ls45 Mr. Walsh was nom.
mated by the democratic party and elected as a member
of Congress, where he distinguished himself by his ever
rough and ready remarks on all subjects,
AT the expiration of bis term of Office, Mr.. Walsh 70.
turned to the city and engaged in literary pursuits, con.
tributing several articles to the various periodicals. In
1852, he was again elected to Congress, and at the expira.
ton of his term was sent by President Pierce on a secret
mission TO the court Of England. On his return from
Europe, Mr.. Walsh again engaged In literary occupation
till about eighteen months ago, when he wns sent by
President Buchanan ON a secret mission to Mexico IN re.
lation, it was supposed, to the Central American Difficult.
ties. He returned from Mexico about six months ago.
and shortly afterwards joined in the publication Of a
small daily paper in this city called the Evening Sentinel,
but which only lived a few days. Since then, Mr.. Walsh
has lived in retirement. Mr.. Walsh's character for hon.
csty always stood high in the community and, although
his habits and associations esranged him from many Of
his former friends, yet this one sterling trait of his char.
acter was never denied. Though his walsh 81 populari,,
was considerably on the wane and nearly gone, yet the
intelligence of his death was received with sincere regret
by all those who had known him in his palmy days.
Mr.. Walsh started out on Wednesday evening in order
TO pay his respects to Vice President Breckenridge, who
is now stopping at the New York Hotel. He afterwards
left there, it is said, to visit IA friend up town The next
known of him was vixen Officer Courtney found his body.
The affair creates considerable excitement Throughout the
city.

THE GRAND jury IN THE sIcKLEs CASE

The dhAND july IN lHF SlIklES CASE 1T
The grand jury. after a fun investigation OF the
circumstances Of the Sickles case, so far as Mr.. But
terworth was sought TO be involved in it, dismissed
the investigation. Here we might drop the subject;
but there has been exhibited towards Mr.. Butter
worth, by a portion Of the press and by individuals,
a most malignant aud ferocious spirit. Mr.. Butter
worth is a gentleman of high character. His CON
duct has been irreproachable. He was unfortunate
enough, at the moment of the tragic occurrence be-
tween Mr.. Sickles and Mr.. Key, 10 have been pres
ent and witness the affair-an accidental matter
purely. On these simple facts a portion of the press
set up the howl for sinister, and we have no doubt
partisan, purposes that Mr.. Butterworth had made
himself a party TO the killing of Mr.. Key. A more
violent and disgusting conclusion we can hardly inn
agine. IL is not easy for a man of honorable instincts
aud generous nature TO comprehend the motives of
the assailants. Acting upon an excited community,
aud invoking the aid of the legal tribunals, the com
bination of mischievous elements thought they had
it in their power to strike a fatal blow at the repu-
tation of an upright and honorable man. They have
failed. The envenomed shaft has fallen short of its
intended victim. He is insensible TO the sting of re-
proach who is a stranger to the guilt that is implied
in it. In the whole history Of criminal law we do
not remember an instance where malice and mischief
have undertaken a more disgusting work or suffered
a more complete and crushing defeat.

The New Orleans Ia.) Delta, alluling TO the dolelal
remarks of northern journals on the alleged filling up ~
the mouths of the Mississippi, states that the deten'lohu
so many vessels at the present time at the bars is not "r
casioned by a diminution of water, or an aocumuia,Yii
OF mud, but by the increased draught OF water reqwm'p
by vessels of greater burden than those formerly useu ~
the trade. Ten or fifteen years ago., says the pe"I
"a ship carrying 2 800 bales of cotton was not thougnlU
for our commerce. Now 1000 and 5000 bales ar
common cargo, and there is a ship now loading AZ 0"

New YoRK DEFENcEs--We notice the " Courier
des Etdt Unis,'' the French paper in New York,
contains an article of some length in relation to the
coast defcnces of the United States, which appears to
have been called forth by the criticims in the Ameri-
can and English newspapers, upon the memoir Of
Lieut.. Morton, u. S. e., in relation to Garth trork de-
fences of New York, submitted to Congress by Sec
rotary Floyd at last session, aud not acted on.
The article commcnds the project, and suggests ar
guments similar to those urged by Gen. Cass whilst
Secretary of War, in his mastery report on our sea
coast fortifoations. Some of the Courier writers
are peculiar and strikipgly French, and betray a want
of respect for the English.
