priation be necessary to the completion of
as will give to the press of the State an el
vatedi manly and dignified ton, that will
exert a healthful influence upon the manners
and morale ef the people, and make it re
spected both at home and abroad. The Me
trapilrtan press has, fertbe most part, given
tone to, and governed the press iu other
portions of the State. Consequently more
responsibility rests with the leading papers
of Raleigh than any where else. Let i hen
set the proper example, as one
expressed a willingness
exert a powerful influence for good
State.
The course proposed is the one which
marked out for out-self when we engaged in
journalism, and which w have endeavored
to pursue as far a the spirit of the times
aud the course of our contemporaries would
permit. Our object has bee a to give tone
to, and elevate the character of the secular

at the aranttif dignity,

the personal vituperation and abuse which
has characterized some of the leading jour

depraved and vitiated tastes engendered by
the war, or resulting from the demoralisation
of the times, may possibly make a paper
popular, aud enable it proprietor to make
money out of it. but it makes it an engine of
mischief that goes very far to perpetuate the
vils under which the community is suffering,
ihich it ought to be its chief aim to remove.
