Its eolnmns xvili afford The Presbyterian Church in North Carolina has lonj( labored under a serious disadvantage from tiie want of a journal to advocate her claims and represent her interests. It is esti mated that only 1000 Presbyterian Weeklies are taken in tlie bounds of our three Presbyte ries. We have 13,000 Communicants, and it is safe to infer tliat there are 30,000 Presby terians in principle in the State. Our Synod stands fiftli in tlie Union in point of number.#, and her menibersliip is greater tliaii that of any Synod South or West of Pennsylvania. Our sister States on the North and South, neither of xvliich has a membership so large as ours, pulilisli the Central, and the Southern Pres'oyterian, for the benefit of their people. The time has come.xvlien the Presbyterian Church in North Carolina should likexvise do her duty to her children. It is a conceded and important fact, that hundreds of our members will take a State paper who xvill take no other. The Paper is needed to be the organ of our Synod and Presbyteries— to elevate and en lighten the piety of our meinbership by diffusing evangelical knowledge—to promote the cause of Education—to develope the talents of onr Ministry, and to strengthen the attacliment of our people to the soil and sanctuaries of their oxvn State. If our Church in other States, and other Churches in this State, can supply their mem bers with a religious journal, why may not-we? Are North Carolina Presbyterians inferior in talent, energy and patriotism to their neigiibor.# on tlie .North or South, or to Cliristians ol otlier denominations at home? With tin same or better opportunities of accomplishing this xvork, shall we leave it undone? In the language of one of onr most able and usefiP Ministers, an adopted .son of onr State, “It ought to have been undertaken 20 years ago, but it is not too late to begin to do right.” In tlie last two or three raontlis, a fund ol about $5000 has been subscribed as a perma nent capital.

Tiie iiiliabitants of a coiintiy village xvoiiid have dignified him vx-itli the title of Seplire,” and from his manners pronounced linn proud; but those most accustomed to so ciety xvould inforn, you that there xvas some- thiiig like military air about him.—His hor.se panted as if he had been liard pn.#hed for many miles; yet, Irom the oxviier’s frequent stops to caress the patient animal, he could not be charged with want of hiinianity, but seemed to be actuated by some urgent necessity. The rider, forsaking a good road for a by patli lead ing through the woods, indicated a desire to avoid the gaze of other travellers, lie had not long left the house, where he asked the direction of the above mentioned path, before the quietude of the place was broken by the noise of distant thunder, lie was soon after obliged to di.smoiint, traveling became much too dangerous, as the heavy darkness concealed siirroi.nding object.#, except xvlien tlie liglitiiing flasli afforded liiiii a momentary view of his sHuation A peal, louder, and of a longer du ration than any of the preceding, wliicli noxv burst over his head, seeming as if it would rend the woods^assuiiuer, was quietly followed by a heavy fail of rain, that penetrated the clothes of the stranger ere lie could obtain tlie shelter of a large oak, which stood at a little distance Almost exhausted with tlie labors of the day, he xvas about making sneli dispo.sitioii of tlie saddle and his overcoat, as would enable him to pass the night, with xvhat comfort circum- .stances would admit, xvhen he espied fi light glimering through the trees. Animated with tlie hope of better lodgings, lie determined to proceed, ilie wt:y, xx’hicli xx'as steep became attended wiili more obstacles, the fartlier he advanced, the soil being composed of clav- which t'le rain had rendered so soft, that his feet slipped at every step. By the utmo.st jier- sevcraiice, this difficulty xvas finaliy overcome xvithout any accident, and he had the pleasure of finding hinnself ill front of a decent looking farm house. The watch-dog began barking, whieli brought the owner of the hoii.se to the door. “Who is tliere?” said he. “A irieiid who has lost liis way, and is in search of a place of shelter,” was tlie aii.sxvcr. “Come ill sir,” added the first sjieaker “and wliiitever my liouse will ailbrd, yon shall have witii pleasure.” “1 must provide for the weary compaiiioii of my jouri.ey,” remarked the otlier. But the farmer undertook the task, and alter ctnidnct- ing the nexv comer into a room xvhere his wife was seated, he led the horse to a well stored barn, and there provided for liim most bounti. Lilly. On rejoining tlie traveler, he observed, rnat is a noble animal of your.#, sir.” “\es,” xva.s the reply, “and I am sorry that I was obliged to misuse him so as to give you .#0 much trouble with the care of liim; but I have to tliaiik you for your kindness to both j being enrolled xxith that of the Father cf me and my horse ” “J ditl 110 more tiiaii my duty, sir,” .said the eiijertaiiicr, and am tiierefore enlitied to no thanks. But Su.#aii,” said he, turning to tlie lio.stes.s, xvitli a lialf reproaclifiil look, “why liavc yon not given tlie gentleman something to eat?” Fear had prevented the good woman from exercising a xvcll-kiioxvii benevolence; for a robbery had been eonimitted by a lawless band of depredators, but a fexv weeks before, in that neighborhood, and a.s report stated, tliat tlie ruffians were very well dressed, her iiiiagiiiation had sugge.sted tliat this man might be one ol them. At her husband’s remonstrance, she now readily engaged in rcjiaifing her er.-or, by p,re paring a splendid repast. During the meal, there xvas much intere.#ting coiiver.siitiou be- txveeii the three. As soon as the worthy coun tryman perceived that his guest liad satisfied his appetite, he iiiforiiied him tliat it xvas the hour at wliicli the family usually performed their devotions, inviting him, at the same time, to be present.—The invitation xvas accepted in these xvords j thinking of God. ,1m,1 all his kind mqnirie# I after our wellfare 1 xvisl, p,,,, |,„| home from the army, if it wa.# oiilv to Inai good man talk; 1 am .#iire Wa.-liiim could no! more better Iiislttrv of i! brave Foldlers." “W iio kisow.^ no\v,“ iiKjuired tlu' “l,,|r it may be him.-elf after ail, my dear; loi- th,. do say he travel# all alone, .#omctime.
