It is esti mated that only. 1000 Presbyterian Weeklies are taken in the bounds of our three Presbyte ries. We have 13,000 Commnnicants, and it is safe to infer that there are 30,000 Presby terians in principle in the State. Onr Synod stands fifth in the Union in point of numbers, and her membership is greater than that of any Synod South or West of Pennsylvania. Our sister States on the Xorth and South, neither of which has a membership so l^e as onr-s, publish the Central, and the Soatheri^- Prcs'oyterian, for the benefit of their people.

O. O. F., at Woodstown, determined to have their Lodge loom done up clean and nice, and it was resolved unanimously that Mrs K. should be employed to do the job. After the meeting adjourned, the guardian, who knew the inquisitive character of Mrs K., procured a billy goat and placed him in a closet that was kept as a reservoir for the secret things. He tlien informed the lady of the wishes of tlic Lodge, and requested her to conic early nest morning, as lie then would be at leisure to show her what was anti what was not to be done. Morning came, and with it Madam K., with her broom, brushes, pails, tubs, &c., prepared and armed for the job, and found the guardian waiting for her.

The brothers said it was difticull to get any body to do the job, and not be meddling with the secrets in that little closet; we ha\e lost the key, and cannot find it to lock the door.

My poor dead and gone husband, who belonged to the Free Masons, or anti-Masons, I don’t know which, used to tell me all the secrets of the concern, and when he showed me all of the niarks the gridiron made when he was initiated, and told me how they fixed poor Morgan, I never told a living soul to this day If nobody troubles your closet to find out your scciet.s till I do, they’ll lay there till they rot—they will.” “I thought so,” said the guardian, “and non I want you to commence in that corner, and give the wliole room a decent cittaiiing, and 1 have pledged my word and honor for the hdelity l s« to your promise; now don’t go into that closet, mid then left the lady t« herself.

It is our wish and design to make the North Carolina Presbyterian a journal of the first class, equal to the best in the country in typo- o-raphiciU appearance and in adaptation to the wants of onr Churches. Its columns will afford the latest intelligence, both foreign and domes tic, and special care tvill be taken to give a fnll and accurate summary of State news. The name of the Paper is designed to be an expo nent of its character and contents. From con viction, it will advocate the conservative, or thodox, Old School doctrines and order of the Church. Our first appeal is to our own people—to N C Fresbyteriaiis. Whilst we rely confidently upon their favor, we trust that the native sons of North Carolina who have found homes in other States, and the adopted citizens of our State who form so important an element in our Ministry and membership, will take a deep interest in this enterprise, and give it then- hearty support. Terms: $2 per annum in advance, or on de livery of the first number; $2 50 in six months $3 at the end of the year.

As soon as 1500 subscribers are obtained, the first number will be issued.
