Prospectus Ofs.The ws
Afesperinn."
A Journal Depoisd 70 ne literary iatssss 81
The AsHssppi Ydisy.

On Saturday, the fifth Of January
1867, the subscriber commenced th'
publication Of The WEEKLY HEspE'
RAN, a paper which, in matter ant
style, he hopes to render acceptable
to The souudest Judgment and the
most delicate taste.
The Hesperian will be strictly lite.
rary, and its columns will contain
Romances, Essays, Poems, Historical
and Biographical Sketches, Reviews,
and articles on various other literary
topics. Religion il will leave TO the
pulpit; politics to the hastings, yet
at the same time il will endeayor 70
inculcate a taste for the beautiful and
true among all classes and circles.
The leading feature Of the Hespe.
rian win be its devotion to the LTrE.
RARY INTERESTS Of the Mississippi
Valley. Here, il ia evident, are to
be the homes Of the great body Of
the American people; aud here will
be the mind, the energy and the
wealth to sustain and direct the af.
fairs of our American Society. How
essential, then, that this mind be ele.
waited and refined, and how fitting
that the attempt be made at St. Louis,
already the bushes center, as il ought
to be the literary center of our great
valley.
HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHY
will form a special feature of the
Hesperian. The history of ST. Louis
was commenced in the first number,
and it will be followed by a series Of
historical articles relating to New
Orleans, Memphis, Louisville, Gin.
%cinnsti, Chicago, and all the noted
cities in the Mississippi Valley. Ac-
euraie and interesting biographical
sketches of the most prominent and
enterprising citizens will appear from
time to time in its columns.
MONTHLY FASHION REPORTS will
be published. These reports will
contain the latest Eastern fashion, as
well as a description Of what is worn
in the West.
CONTRIBUTORS OF MERIT,
and Of established reputation, have
already been engaged; aud the pro-
prietor hopes, before many weeks, to
be able to announce that he has en-.
listed the entire literary talent Of the
West.
The Hesperisn will be published
weekly, in an eight page form, tsize
Of the New York Ledger,) from beau
tifnl, new type, on superior paper.
TERns:-Three dollars per annum,
in advance. An extra copy will be
furnished to. each club Of ten sub
scribers.
POstmasters are requested to act
as agents.
