When fritiids forsook tlice in that liour, What was tliy soul’s dis'niay ! Canst thou, who’st felt the ag^'>ny Which that stern iiowt-r can give, WMien pent within its '.'ankT(d toil:^, WliL-rc guilt alone must iivc. Retrace thy path of misery.

Which resolution was adopted. The committee appointed to suggestthe best plan for conducting the operations of the Convention, w*ere instructed to prepare a Constitution for the Society. The following memorial from tlie county of Pas quotank, was read and ordered to be spread upon the Journals of the Convention: To the State Temperance Convention of North Carolina^ to assemble, in Raleigh : Having some time since, noticed in the public prints sundry resoliJtions passed at a called meeting of the State Temperance Society, resolving that a Temperance Convention for (lie Stdte be held in Raleigh, to convene some time in November; also inviting the attendance of the friends of Temper- nnce. and the sending of delegates by the local so cieties throughout the State; the PeTquimons county Temperance. Society, for whom the undersigned now act, concurring in said resolutions, feel a live ly interest and a strong desire, united with corres ponding efTorts, to act in conformity W'ith tin: same. Owing, however, to various causes, we have been unsuccessful in procuring suitable delci;^otes to send on such an important mission. We have therefore adopted the present mode to represent ourselves in said convention. Permit us then, as tho organs of the above socie ty, briefly to state, that we have for several years feh the necessity and gieat importance of a more united and vigorous action on the part of tho friends of Temperance throughout the Stale of North Car olina, Our society (now compost;d ut between two and three hundred members,) has been endeavoring, with its best ability, to arrest the march of mtemper- ance for more than four years. W’’e pledge and practice total abstinence, and advise our friends and neighbors to do so too. And, notwithstanding our progress seems tardy, Ave feel warranted in the be* jiv'f, that our influence in the community is decided ly I’avorable, ^ During the session of our last Legislature, wc called the attention of that body (by petition) lo the evils of the j'n sent license code, “ Praying the enacting ol such laws as will fully guard the pub lic against the inlluence of grogeries and fashiona ble places of retail. ’ This petition was favorably received by a portion of the Senate, (where it was introduced.) but owing to the opposition of others, was linally rejected. To the same subject we w'culd res])ectfully invite the consideration of the Convention. We have now in preparation a peti tion to the Justices of the i'eace of our county jn-aying the exerc’*sc of their magisterial powders to relieve us only from the two licensed places of retail of ardent spirits in the county. We have been induced to "ive the above infor mation of our existence as a society. See., from the belief that it will be satisfactory to the Convention to ioarn the state of feeling in th.is section on fhe subject it has convened to deliberate upon. In conclusion, allov; us simply to add, that we teel confident that the ort'-anization of a State 'I'em- j)cr '.nce Society, composed of auxiliaries from all parts of the State, w’ill tend greatly to liarmoirize the view^s and concentrate the inlluence of the Tem perance advocates, and give greater dignity and im portance to the subject we have espoused. W’^hat- ever therefore may be the result of the deliberations cf the Convention, calculated to accomplish the great ends of I’emperance, will be cordially united with by your humble co-w'orkcrs in this section; and i?: the event of the formation of a State Socie ty, u'ould respt.cttnily wish to be enrolled among tli'j number of auxiliaries. ^'■^rv ri.^^p^^'ctfullv, vo>r friends.

THE CULTIVATOR, A consolidation of Buel’s Cultivator and the Genesee Farmer. WILLIS GAYLORD & LUTHER TUCKER, Editors. Prospectus of To/. S,for 1841. The Cultivator was established to' improve and elevate the Agriculture of the country ; to give a proper tone to the morals and mind of the farmer; to show him the dignity and importance o his profession ; to store his mind with useful know ledge, and convince him that while all classes are niust be more or less dependant on each otlio; he of the whole can make any near approach to indepCu'i^^iice. If there is one thing more than another, whic:*? in ^his country giv'es a man superi ority over his fello w men, it is knowledge ; and tliis knowledge,—knowledj^’C which is essential to the success of the farmer as to Other men,-—it is the de sign of the Cultivator to aid liJ .miparting. The volume for 1840, is filit^d entirely with Original Communication.^, embracing'arficles^rom about 300 Correspondents, from almost ever/ State in the Union. If an increase of sub.scription beyond any ppce- dent in the history of Agricultural Journals,—if the almost unanimous voice of the public press in our favor,—if the multitude of private yet flattering tes timonials we 4iave received, added to a circulation amounting the first year to Twenty-two thousand, may be abutted as evidence, then we have certain ly most abundant reason to be gratified with the suc cess which has attended the Union of the Cultivator and the Genesee Farmer. No expense has been or will be spared to render the Cultivator w’orthy of the patronage it has received, la the number, va riety and excellence of its Illustrations, it is \vith- out a rival at home or abroad, the last volume being embellished with nearly One Hundred Engravings, illustrating the improved breeds of Horses, Cattle, Sheep, Swine, Building, Implements, &c,, making the Cultivator, all things considered, it is believed, the Cheapest Agricultural Paper ever published in this or any other country. TERMS—One Dollar per annum—Six copies for ^5—the money to be remitted in advance, free of postage. A commission of 20 per cent, will be al lowed to Agents who will obtain 25 or more subscri bers, and 25 per cent, to those who obtain 100 or more. All subscriptions to commence with a vo lume.

Jeffersonian Office, Charlotte, March 9, 1841, PROSPECTUS OF THM Congressional Globe and Appendix. THESE works have now been published by us f^. ten consecutive sessions of Congres. Cominoncinoi with the session of 1832-3, They have had wide circulation, and have been so universally gn proved and sought after by the public, that we it necessary only in this prospectus to Kay that thev will be continued at the next session of ConoTess and to state, succinctly, their contents, the form which they will be printed, and the prices for them, The Congressional Globe is made up of the daily proceedings of the two Houses of Congress. The speeches of the members are abridged, or conden,^C(j to bring them into a reasonable, or readable length! All the resolutions oflered, or motions made, are given at lengtli, in the mover’s own words; and the yeas and nays on all the important questions, \{ printed with small type—brevier and nonpareil—on a double royal sheet, in quarto form, each numttr containing 16 royal quarto pages. It is printed as fast as the business done in Congress furnishes mat. ter enough for a jiiimber usually oire number, but sometimes two numi>iBrs!« a week. W e have kivan- ably printed more numbers than there were weeks ia a session. The approaching eesswn of Coitgress, it is expected, will continue 7 mt?.n?h®> if so, subscri> bers may expect between 30 and 40 i?umbers, which, together, will make between 500 and royal qoar. to pages. y The appendix is made up of the President s an- nual message, the reports of the principal officers« the Governmet that accompany it, and all thf- long speeches of members of Congress, written out or re vised by themselves. It is printed in the same fotm as the Congressional Globe, and usually makes about the same number of nages. Heretofore, on account of the set speeches being so numerous and so long, we have not completed the Appendix until one or two months after the close of the session; but in future, we intend to print the speeches as fast as they shall be prepared, and of course shall complete the work within a few days after the adjournment. Each of these works is complete in itself; but it ij necessary for every subscriber who desires a full knowleige of the proceedings of Congress, to have both ; because, then, if there should be any ambi guity in the synopsis of the speech, or any denial of its correctness, as published in the Congressional Globe, the reader may turn to the Appendix to see the speech at length, corrected by the member him self. Now, there is no source but the Congreeelonal Globe and Appendix, from which a person can ob tain a full history of the proceedings of Congress. Gales and Seaton’s Register of Debates, which contained a history, has been suspended for three or four years. It cost about five times as much for a session as the Congressional Globe and Appendix and did not contain an equal amount of matter, a great portion of the current proceedings being omit ted. vVe are enabled to print the Congressional Globe and Appendix at the low rate now proposed by having a large quantity of t>-pe, and keeping the Congrssional mntter that -?ve set up for the daily and semi-weekly Globes, standing for the Congression al Globe and Appendix. If we had to setup the matter purposely for these works, we could not af ford to }»rint them for double the price now charged. Complete indexes to both the Congressional Gfobe and the Appendix are printed at the close of each session, and sent to all subscribers for them. We have on hand 3,000 or 4,000 surplus copies of the Congressional Globe and Appendix for the ex tra session, which make together near one thousand royal quarto pages. They give the fullest history of Congress that has ever been published. AVe now sell them for §1 each; that is, !jjl for the Congres sional Globe, and S‘l for the Appendix. We'pro- pose to let subscribers for the Congressional Globe and Appendix for the next session, have them for 50 cents each. Tliey will be necessarj’’ to understand fully the proceedings of the next session. The im portant matters discussed at the last, will be brought up at the next session, in consequence of the univer sal dissatisfaction evinced in the late elections w:ii the vast ;md novel system of policy which the power, have introduced, and which was forced througii Congress without consulting puplic opinion, or even allowing the full discussion usual in regard to sub jects of ordinary interest. The reports of the Cou- grcssional Globe and Appendix are not in the least degree affected by the party bias of the Editor.- Tiiey are given precisely as written out bv the Re porters and the members theoselves. *And tlie whoic are subject to the revision and correction of the speakers, as they pass in review in our daily sheet, in case any misunderstanding or misrevrtaeii- tation of their remarks sliould occur. We make a daily analysis of the doings in Con gress, and give our opinions in it freely, but this i;; published only in the Daily, Semi-weekly, and Week ly Globes. The Daily Globe is ij^lO, the Semi-week ly Globe !fi;2 per annum, m advance. The Weekly Globe is printed in the same form as the Congres sional Globe and Appendix, and a complete index made to it at the end of each year. TERMS : For the Congressional Globe and Appendix for the last Extra Session, !tjiI. For the Congressional Globe foj the next session, §1 per copy. For the'Appendix for the next session, §l p«- copy. Six copies of either of the above works will be sent for ^5; twelve copies for $10, and so on in propor tion for a greater number. Payments may be transmitted by mail, fosla^^ paid, at our risk.
