ONE OF THE CHEAPEST AND BEST PAPERS PUBLISHED
IN THE COUNTRY
NOW rs THE TINE TO FORM CLUBS!

The present year inauguratcs the third vol
umc of this favoritc exponent of SOUTHERN lit.
erature. 1t is source Of no little qualification
/ to us that in announcing the third volume of
the JOURNAL, we are enabled to give the best
possible reproof to the discouraging predictions
of Northern publishers, as well as to the gloomy
forcbodings of even hearty wcll-wishers in our
own section of the country. Yes we are proud
to say that the brilliant success of the SOUTH
ERN FAMILY JOURNAL has proved the cx-
istcncc of literary talent and enterprise In the
SouTH which fears no rivals.
The friends of SOUTHERN literature have often
declared that, could they get SOUTHERN paper
which, in point of intrinsic merit and in price,
could compete with Northern wceklics, they
would checrfully support it. We offer this dc.
sidcratum; we ask these promises to be re-
deemed. We ask q comparison with other pa.
pcrs of its class, and are satisfied that the
SOUTHERN FAMILY JOURNAL will befound
equal to the best. Arrangements have been
made with the
BEST WRITER'S or TIE SOUTH
and the Publishers have no hesitation in saving
that the JOURNAL must become
Welcome Guest an ere'y Southern Home.

host of new and interesting features, compris-
ing, among others,
