JTfl Vv I- t i J WeleamlivtiiH KnJZitrh -,c;!TO tffat A MeRae intends visiting -this plof on tlie 9ta of Feb'y, and will addresses fcikfcitizens on the evening of the same.- jtris alledged that his object is-to defend himself from the attacks of certain of the Press. ' He-will also speak at Goldsborough on .the 1st, Raleigh the 15th, and -Hillsborough the 23rd of February. r Come, brother HoMen, yon must out with it. - What have yoti been doing to raise . the knap of "the Squire after this fashion? Or is it your neigh bor Syme of the Regksy working at the wires of distribution, who is uing the Squire to take this tour in serf defence -and thereby throw out feelers ..as he tfuveld to see "whether it will do to thrust Leak aside and stump it over the State, in oppo'si-. tion to our next nominee for Governor! Perhaps out brothers Fulton and Price of Wilmington have been rather nauglity towards MeRae as ho set apart the 23th inst., to visit that -city. Letr "us know; gentlemen .of-the Journal, what lack of focir- tesyhavQ you been-guilty of towards him? "Pos sibly yoa can make the amende honorable Fh time i . - -- tojstop a tongue-lashing if it has not already" been admiiiisted to vou! Tn0 Tribune at. Goldsboco1, certainly mnst be at fault too, for tho Squire in tends being heard in that region as sure as the sun Shines, on tlfo 1st "of February, and as sure as he is a living man! Wo do not know what the Hillsbo rough, domocracy have been saying or doing against the Squire, but they had better "fess the corn as Pompy did just afore ho received 39 on his bare back," for as sure as the 23J of Fobr'y rolls round, so sure will they catch it.' Wo thought" our j frjentl Yates of the ClidTloUeJDenXvcrai I was rather ejicy uguuisL mu oquire, uui wtj ce a'" ''wmi meut made for his quarter of the State. Friend Yates, however, had better look out, for if any man ver deserved to cateh"tho ash from the Squire, e tlrnk he richly deserves it, for he laid it on rath rt thick a mouth or so ago in liis columns. The Winston Sentinel must also be on the alert, for if '. v mistake not it has been rather extensive in its briu!es against friend McEac's (Dancy ) letter Tht.?.lisbury Uanner, too, unfurled its ample and graced folds in a hostile position to said letter, it therein, had better be prepared to make pnlper acknov;nents to the Squire before it is too late. As for t. W.irrenton AVmw, it should commence at once t nt on sack clotlrand"u-dies, for'its sins of commis.- n against-the letter havo been enor mous. Th'A-hoviile At n-s, too, has been rather guilty with b ust of Mr Mcllae's democratic op ponents in pu.-' his letter of distribution to pie ces. We forgi -.hether the Giraffe occupied a hostile position c- . t but as well as we recollect it came down like a..usand of brick on the docu ment. As for our-'.?, we have becrl quiet and peaceable towards '.:tcRae, we know, therefore, be cannot mean us a- e of his marks to shoot at. Yet, lie understands opposition perfectly well He knows that we are ti-i-l opposed to the doc trine of distribution and are e.;: ..y ns hostile to disor- ganizers in our ranks. S'u ..Id Mr MeRae ever go before the people (as it is Miiked that he may do j between this and August) au Candidate favoring the heretical doctrine containti in his Danev let ter, then we will be prepared, litieally speaking to "welcome him with bloody hauls and a hosp'ta tie grave." We do not know that -such is hi.-7 tentio.is which ai I itit the fact even of his 'caching tei -'reel would be e hostile to the d ik:n ora(i' eriorzrHj fo ci'll fort!i tho thituni-ifiti, of vi-rv democratic Press m (.'i.risti-ncc.i.i an i ni that event our columns will be i-mp'oyi-d in defence of our faith in opposition to Mr MeRae, or any other, in diviJuul whomav ser-ni disposed to deviate from the good old democratic paths. We w.onld much ll. Tin t, r thnt MV Mci;. wmil.1 consider his Wavs ami ,1,,;,, n,t l,,...- r., ., .;tion ot that km.l -;il curry liim off from the democratic foht when in the j outset he may never have intended it. We do not j wish to see a man of his superior talents and tine accomplishments, politicly Juried as it were here in North Carolina, whe hc might bo of o much use to her in various has noed of tll free and full exercise "-he talents of all her sons. Ihit what arc Miperi,r 'af'"ts and exulted accom plishments worth. when they are directed in the wrong way. W1 hope Mr MeRae will show by his course that lie determined to adhere to the true democratic fa''1 am that he will abandon all bis foolish idea "all litribution and go for that policy whirl' '3 a,lle S!lft for us whether in a State or Xation.d point of view. We are aware that men 0frrrpf ,i)iiids are often led astray fro-.n a right COltrsp Jasi iui mi; wuiil oi i lime t oiisiieriiLion, and wbcn they have taken a calm and dispassionate view of their course they are as ready and willing to rcrrace their stops as they were eager at first to pMrsuethc rong path. Vrc are partial to Mr MeRae, from the fact of lils being a native horn, son of Fayetteville, and reared up and educated in our midst, and we be lieve he has the welfare of his native State at heart. These considerations together with our knowledge, as we have before said of his superior talents aud i. l. i . r t. ..1 . r i a: fine accomplishments are the reasons why we have been induced to exercise patience towards his de- viations from the old democratic policy on the land question.' We always feel a State pride for any and all of her talented sons and would much prefer to hold them up before tho world than to aid in burying them in the grave of oblivion. But if they will persist in their obstinacy and take a hostilo position to that party on the success of which, we believe depends the prosperity of our State and Union, then we are bound to buckle on our armor and fight against them, "not that we love Cassar less, but that we love Home more." STWe received this week through the Post Office, a letter from Gray's Creek, containing two Marriage Notices, with the request for us to pub lish them. It being contrary to our rules to insert either Marriage or Death Notices in our paper, without tlie name of some responsible person is attached to them and as there is no name signed to the Grays Creek letter we cannot depart from our usual rule in such cases, and therefore the Mar riages are not published. Persons , sending such communications ought to be more particular. They must sign their names ia full in order to justify an Editor in inserting such Notices. We wish to be : obligmg, but cannot be so when we are compelled to run all the risks of the law of tho land ourselves Our friends must not, therefore, blame ns for any omissions of this kind when the fault -s with themselves entirely.

Besides what our Legjslative archives contain, our newspapers often publish valuable statistical information, which is either lost, or if preserved by a very few, is so incon venient to find when wanted, that the facts arc soon forgotten.- 21ie same may be said of the Reports and Statements fi om time to time made by our incorporated companies" and other engaged in Manufactures, Mines, Commerce-, &e. To collect these various items of informa tion, and give them to the public in a shape easy of reference and for perpetual preservation, as well as to gather from all available resour ces, everything bearing directly or indirectly on our wealth, prosperity and industry, is the , design of the Journal now offered for public putroaage. So far as the plan for conducting the same has been matured, the pages of the STATIST will be devoted to the arrangement of such tables relating to oar Population, Agriculture, Commerce, Education, Public Improvements, Manufactures, Fisheries, Mines, and Social Sta tistics generally, as will preseut their condition and our progress in each. It is also designed to contain the Reports (condensed) of the Public Treasurer, Com missioners olthe linking r nnu, oupenntencicni of Common Schools, and all other State Offi cers and I5oards; as also, Statenients and Re port, of the condition and progress of the vari ous Railroad and Navigation Companies. The Statist will be put to press as soon as a, sufficient number of responsible names are ob tained to pay tho expenses of publication. Th( numbers will contain each, not less than 150 P--o closely printed matter, making a book of 300 pages, or more, to which will be added a full and complete index. Terms: THREE DOLLARS pep. annct.i ONE DOLLAR AND FIFTY CENTS, for six months; payable when the first number is ready for publication, which fact will be duly announced in tho public Newspapers. EFThose persons intending to patronize tho Journal, will send their names to tho undersigned without delay, as it is desirable to issue the first number as soon as possible. QITENT.
