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. At a meeting of tlie contributor.#
held at Greensborougli on the 14th of May,—
Rev. A. B.iker, Chairman,—the Paper was uii-
animotisly located at Fayetteville, under the
name and title of the North Caboli.v.v Pkes-

His appearance xvas that of a person above tlic
common rank. 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

The next nioniing, the traveler, declining the
pre.ssing solicitation to breakfast with his host,
declared it was necessary for him ,o cross the
liver immediately, and at the same tinicofi'eriiig
part of his purse .as a eompemsatiou for xvhat he
had received, which was refused.
“Well sir,” continued ho, “since you will not
