WHAT THE SOUTHERN PRESS SAY OF
SOUTHERN SOCIETY.
We commend souther Society to our peo-
pie. There are hundreds of persons in this
city who are constant patrons of the sensa-
tional and foolish pictorials published at the
North. We are, by purchasing this literary
trash, fostering those who care nothing for
us, and whose delight ii is to insult us. 1t is
time we should support our own institutions
and people. southern Society is emphatic
cally southern journal. Southern men
and women write for il, Southern men pub
lish IL, and ii is conducted in Southern eli
y. Every one who loves the South and de-
sires to see its Institutions prosper, should
subscribe at once TO this journal, and extend
all the aid in his power towards establish
Ing, on firm basis, journal which is des-
tined to reflect honor and credit upon this
Countrywide South.-Mo6tle Tribune. M

satisfaction. This journal, just issued, will
undoubtedly achieve solid success, for it is
full of charming papers, and intends TO avoid
the rock on which so many Southern maga-
zines have foundered. The rock was a false
reliance on 9rdtuitous coitifbutions.-NorJ

There is great need of an able weekly Jour-
nal edited by Southern men, and to which
the Southern people can, advantageously
and consistently, give their cordial support.
Such a journal Southern Society promises to
be, and If a strong corps of writers and skill

we desire that it may become. 1t is hand
somely printed, neither expense nor labor
being spared to make 1t worthy of the pat
