ID 1T will present to its readers selections from the
best European Periodicals. Of Literary and Scicn-
tifc Artcls, of Novels, Tales aud Sketches. which
having already received the lmprimature OF an en-
lightened taste, cannot but prove acceptable to
the Southern public. The effort will be maze to
keep the reeders of the Magazine as nearly pcs
sible abreast of the literary progress OF the age
Arran gements have been made which, it is hoped
will enable the Preprietors to secure this end.
The Magazine will also present original articles
from our best writers, in all departments, ana
special aim of the Proprietors OF this periodical
will be to foster Southern authorship by offering
an adequate and remuneratve held for its exer-
else. They will t, however, under the plea OF
this design, encourage, by reproduction in its col
umns, that class of compositions which create a
vapid and unhealthy taste. TO DE stated only by
tx at hybrid literature which Yankee ingenuity
has contrived, under the name OF sensational ro-
nance.
The Industrial Resources and the Educational
Interest Of the Confeperacy- The twin foundations
of all true independence--wil receive the impor-
tant share OF attention they deserve In the de-
velopment of these questions, ITS object Will be TO
make q practical application of the doctrine OF
States Rights to the yolicy Of the country 1t will
endeavorto explain the mission Of the Coniederacy,
which is to demonstrate liberty regulated by law,
to EXHIBIT system of States, each supreme with
in its foundation, and only bound by voluntary
inents OF National Independence, which are secnr-
ed BY high standard Of intelligence and refine
ment, by accumulated capital, varied industry
and by abundant facilities ofintercommunicstion.
1t will promote the adoption OF all those measures,
IN which the Confederate States are nov deficient.
And, whilst the Constitution Of tho Confederate
States forbids the General Government to organ
Ike and operate enterprises Of nature calculated
to attain these results, the projectors will consider
1t their duty to urge upon the States the develop
ment of interests so indispensable to the national
welfare 1t is thus that, through the aggregate
ability Of the separate States, the power of the
Confederate States will be made manifest, 1t ia
thus that the collision of sectional interest and the
oppression of common head will be avoided.
