A FAMILY JOURNAL OF LITIBATCM AHD KBWI FOB BOOTS "& T "" scAnns. THE SOUTH HAS TOO LONG BEEN DEPENDENT upon the northern cities for its periodical literature. The weekly newspapers of Boston, New York, and Phila delphia, have swept like a flood over that part of the nation south of Mason and Dixon's Line, many of them carrying with them some of the prejudices of abolitionism ; ana in culcating, to a greater or less extent, doctr Mi injurious to southern institutions. This dependence of the mass of southern readers should be thrown offand it is believed would have been long ago, if there had been facilities in the South for the publicat ion of first class literary papers. THE SPECTATOR, Is published by a gentleman who has long been connected with some of the southern dailies, and has been undertaken to supply this want that of a high-toned weekly paper Of Southern interest and character. The general plan of the paper is as follows: It Has eight Eages ; three of which are tilled with the best articles on literature, Science, and the Arts; one to the editor's com ments upon passing themes ; one to general news, foreign and domestic; one o the interests ot the Farmer the in formation on this page will be mainly derived from the Ag ricultural Bureau of the U. S. Patent Office ; one to a syn opsis of the operations of the Departments of the Govern ment ; and one, during the winter, to a report of the pro ceedings of Congress: altogether making a plan which will be rigidly adhered to, and which is unequalled by any paper in the country. North or South. The Spectator is printed on new type and on fine paper. Its quarto form makes it convenient for binding, and each annual volume being accompanied by a full index, it will be a most valuable paper for preservation and reference.
