1t might be enough for our present purposes 10 emo

our own land, has gone by forever There is glo-
rious awakening. We have daily signs that South

With this summary we conclude address TO the
friends of the South, Southern Literature and South

the Institutions of country depend upon its literature.
We appeal to citizecs in their behalf, no less
than The creation of national literature is,
next to the actual defence of country, by arms,
against the invader, of the first duties Of patriot
ism. We are probably feeble now from the too long
neglect of this duty But it is too late 10 reform the
error, and the time is approaching fast, when the in
telect of the whole South will be needed for the
conflict.
