the Black Republican candidate. lie has
the rhing dead, to use a slang phrase,
and will be forced by his friends upon the
nominating convention. But he cannot
unite the opposition 10 the democracy.
No Southern man would dare vote for
him-no ticket would be formed for him
in any Southern State. Even in some Of
the anti-dcmocratic States Of the North. il
Is believed that his nomination would be

that they may unite with the southern
/ opposition in nominating some Southern
traitor like Bolts. Bell or Crittenden. in

the opposition nominate Seward or who
else they please, and they can scarcely
hope to carry Minnesota. California. Ore

This il the title Of a new literary paper
Just started at Augusta Georgia. IL is
got up in the style Of the Nee York Lsi-
ger, and other popular literary hebdoma-
dals Of the Northern cities. IL j. fully
equal to any Of them, and we hope it
may prove an exception to the literary
papers started in the South. We cannot
see why il should not succeed-why our
people should not take it in preference to
the Yankee Journals, for it is a. cheap
and a. interesting as the best Of thcm-
JAS. GARpvER. Esq. an experienced Jour
nalist. formerly Editor Of the 1gy,stI C,a-
sfb,,ioaais,. has it under his control, and
his name is a sufficient guaranty that it
will be well conducted. The Nee Orleans
D.iiu gives il "a first rate notice" from
which we take the following, because we
are really anxious to see the paper achieve
success:
When we say that the first contribution
Is from the pen Of the author ct Georgia
Srenas " we state enough to attract the at.
tention To this Journal, Of all who appre-
ciate broad humor and admirable powers
of description. No one has been so success
ful as Professor Longstreet, in ~ketching the
peculiarities and characteristics of South
ern people and scenes-in the raciness
and humnr Of his pictures of domestic
life. The other articles in the southern
Field and Preside are in keeping with
those of Professor Longstrect, and the ed
itoriils are marked by vigor, earnestness,
and n strongly Southern feeling. Partic-
ular attention is given to Agricultural top
les.
We hone that every Southerner will
subscribe to this paper, and freely aid to
remove from our section the reproach so
often made by our enemies and rivals.
that the South is incapable of sustaining
literary periodicals, and has neither taste
nor liberality in literary matters. In any
sense the charge is false and absurd
There are. in proportion to the white pop
ulatlon. far more subscribers to Journals
and readers in the South than in the
North. II Is true that the cheaper labor
and more abundant mechanical industry
at the North have greatly retarded our
home publications But the great State
Of Georgia Is daily demonstrating her
ability 10 compete with the North in
many fields Of mechanical industry, and
we are glad to see that she is following up
her other triumphs by an attempt to sus-
fliu "a Southern literature.
