D. II EAR' IT
Proposes publi^hin^, in Hillsborough N. C
a religious paper, to be emitted
IKK
NORTH CAROLINA
Evangelical Intelligencer ,
In which w 'I be given the mos important in
to* iiiation relative to tl?e spread ot the gos
pel, and the consequent melioration of the
condition of the hurt *n family, with such
other iniell gence as may be interesting to
the christian reader: occasionally enlivened
with religions and moral ^ssa\ s, and lighter
art cl?-s tending to promote christian cha
tty and L* tveiily-m.iidcdness.
PROSPECTUS.
, TO a contemplative mind it is pleasing to
look abroad over the various portions of the
globe, and observe l be improvements which
are dail\ taking place in the condition of man
kind. We percei\e the dark clouds of igno
rance and error, ot superstition and lanai icism,
gradually wa.stmg away, and the horizon gil
ded with a brightness indicating the approach
of a morning glorious to humanity and rich
with blessings to the children of men. t hese
heart-cheering prosper ts are the natural re
suits o! extended information, but more parti
cularly th? bl????"d" of ?n expanding
knowledge of the divine precepts of rhe chris
tian religion. A general tbrist tor knowledge
seems to be awakened, and the efforts now
1 making by missionary, bible, and other socie
ties, to diffuse tiir religion of the gospel, and
to inculcate a more attentive observance of our
Civ. I, moral, and religious duties, are attended
with a success Cheering to the heart of the
philanthropist.
I: is under such circumstances that we pre
sent to the friends of Christianity in this and
the neighboring states, proposals for publish
ing in tins place a weekly paper, calculated
to aid the cause in which so many are enga
ged, and are induced to hope that such an cs
tahl shmcnt would not be among the least ef
ficient means of promoting religious informa
tion U\ the multiplication of political papers
the maid* of the |?eople of tins ta%oured coun
try have been enlightened iR the science of
government above a I the nations of the earth.
Through ilhe same means is it not reasonable
to cspi dRliai moral darkness may be dissi
pated, the love of religion be inculcated, and
a warmth be infused into the heart* of believ
ing christians which would urge them to
Ft. II greater exertions' For though we are
pleased in contemplating the general advance
ment of christian knowledge, and tne melio
rated condition of mankind; yet we find much
to lament when we look around us and per
ceive how nvnv are still enveloped in slothful
ignorance, the victims of vice and immorality.
Though living in a christian land, thct;e are
some, alas many, who never enter a church,
who never open a bible, who never rellect on
the cause or the purpov ol their existence
May not the diffusion of religious intelligence
tend 'o remove this 1 >stlessness' May it not
excite to inquiry' May it not Irad to c >nvic
tion? to reformation? The continual droppings
of water wears the liadest atones; may not
weekly admonitions and repeated examples
inelt hearts of stone? Surely there is room to
hope that the contemplated work, if properly
encouraged, may contribute in some small
degree, toWa'"U hastening that glorious peri
od, when " the mountain of the Lord's house
shi.ll l?e establ.glied in the top of the moun
tains, and shall he ?.\alt? d above the hills; and
all nations shall How unto it "
tn presenting this prospectus to the public*
it is unnecessary farther to explain the nature
of the proposed publication tn its conduct,
all possible care will be taken to select such
matter as ma\ be most interesting and instruc
tive-. and the promised assistance of ?everal
eminent divines, it is expected, will add use
fulness and respectability to the work.
CONDI FIONS.
The Kvangrlical Intelligencer will be pub
lished once a week, and contain eight quarto
pages, neatly printed on good paper.
I he pricc will be three dollars a year, if
Eaid in advancc; otherwise four dollars will
e demanded.
No subscriptions received for less than one
year; and no subscription will be discontinued
until all arrears are paid, unless at the option
of the publisher. A failure to give notice be
fore the end of the year of a wisk to discon
tinue, will be considered as a new engage mrnt.
To persons procuring e.ght subscribers,
and remitting the amount of the subscriptions,
the paper will l?e sent gratis.
The publication will commence as soon as
sufficient encouragement is obtained to de
fray the expense.

From the American Ftumrr.
J. Dela plane's New Plough.
Montgomery County, 25ih Fub. 1822.
John S. Skinner, Kst*.
Siu, ? 1 hrough the politeness of
my valuable friend, Mr. Reese, I am
in possession of every No. ol the
American Farmer up to 4 3 of the
3d volume, all of which hate been
regularly received, consequently at
tentively perused. I therefore tender
you my thanks simply but sincerely,
Tor the great adtanta^ I have re
ceived fro in them; at the same time
regret extremely, that it is not in
my pawcr to contributa |sumething
fur the advantage or amusement of
those from whom 1 hav? had so
much ? I however, beg leave to give
you a dos< riplion of a Plough, which
I invented last fall, for the purpose
of aiding in the breaking up of u.y
corn and tobacco lands. 1 had barely
time to put it in operation before the
lro?t st?l in ? the trial, however, was
sufficient to ascertain that it will
perform the work it is intended to
do ? my calculations are, to follow the
barshare plough with it. in every
furrow, the former to cut and turn
six, the latter to cut and pulverize
I seven inches deep, which will give
me thirteen inches in depth, of loose
mould, to rereivc and hold the most
abundant rains. My substratum
pluugli, as 1 name it. (the three coul- ]
tcrs of which run in aflpar?* *>f nine in
ches.) merely pulverises the ground,
and leaves ii where it finds it ? the
above depth of thirteen (or even iif
?een) inches, 1 ran plough on any
lands clear ot stumps, stone, &c. 1
work three horses in the bai?hare
and two (strong ones) in the substra
tum plough; in the latter both hor
ses walk in the furrow, one before
the oilier ? the plough is simple and
not expensive in its construction, be
ing composed of a b?am, nearly the
size and length of the beam of the
biashare plough, with bandits fixed
similar to *those on shovel ploughs;
arid near the hind end of the brain,
are framed two pieces of timber, one
on each side, nearly the size of the
beam, and about two feet long, each
of which receives a coulter directly
opposite to each other; another coul
ter is iu?ert?d in the beam, about four
inches behind the two first, so that they
nisy not crowd each other; (several
gentlemen who have seen my plough,
say they would prefer havingllir. cen
tre coulter in Iront, which would ren
der the plough less liable to choke, and
1 doubt not but it would be better)
??each coulter is strongly braced to,
and tightly u edged in their respec
tive timbers ? near the centre of the
beam, and directly in front of the
coulters, is fixed a common plough,
wheel, by which we regulate the
depth the plough is to run. I inclose
you, indeed, a rough diagram of my
plough, but have no doubt but your in
genuity will readily perceive the pltn
on which it is made. I had intended
delaying ;*ny communication on this
subject, until I had tested tint advan
tages of my plough, but have now a
desire that some abler farmer than
myself will make experiments with
it ? the advantpge which I expcct to
derive from the use of this plough, is
that ef having the ground pulveris
ed deep, to retain moisture and ad
mit the roots of plants, and still to
have the soil near the surface. If you
think this communication worth a
plaee in your invaluable journal,
you will oblige me by giving it
a place there, provided you will
dress it up in such a garb as to ren
der it lit for the public eye ? as to
yourself, I am certain you will not
ridiculo ay blunder*, when I inform
you that this wan written in the
eveningafter a laborious day*s work,
at trimming of apple trees. I fear
yeu are now beginining to flatter
yourself th*t you will presently come
to the name of some coDsptruoua far
mer of Montgomery. Not so ? 1 aoa
nothing but an overseer or manag< r.
I have, however* the good fortune
to be employed by a very indulgent,
kind and worthy gentleman, W. B'?
wie, Esq. of Georgetown ? he is
much pleased with my plough, and
would readily give you hi* opinion
of it, if -required of him. I am air,
with much respect mud esteem, your
obedient servant,

There are in this county el -vrn
Cotton Factories; eight thousand
six hundred and seventy spir.dles are
constantly running, and many more
h ra shortly to be put in motion,
i ithout increasing the water power,
or erecting any new buildings, these
factories are ? apablc of running
25,000 spindles. The demand fer
cotton goods w ill warrant a gradual ?
increase of spindles and looms. Suno
of the factories have erected the cast
iron power looms; but, as yet, must
of the weaving is done by hand. The
fabricks made are, sh'itings, sheet
ing*, stripes, checks, ginghams, broad
and narrow tickings, and callicoes.
There are only three woollen fac
tories, t |?e Clinton, Oldenvarneveldt,
l and the Oriskany, which do tnfjrh
business; these are all profitably,
arid, the last mentioned, extensively
employed.
The objection which has usually
heeti brought against extensive ma
nufacturing establishments, ** rt>at
thev are the hot beds of vice," can
not lie alleged of those in thiscom.
ty; they being mostly small factories,
and scattered throughout the cenn'ry, /
are as virtuous and respectable at
the rest of the community. .
Among the branches of s^chanism
recently commenced in this village,
which bid fair to rival the best Eu
ropean work shops, we are pleased
in having it in our power ta speak
confidently of the following: Math"
mttitai instruments, made at the
shop of S. Stores, ara pronounce. I,
by the engineers on the canal who
use them, equal to any they hate
been able to proi ure frem Knglan J.
Joiner** tools, made by J. ilea*!; no
bettor ara imported, than those me
nu fact ure d by Mr. Reed, Water co
lor Paints, prepared by J. Bnnce.
The only objection which can he
found with Mr. Bunce's paints is,
that they are stamped Reeves and
H'tiodijer* the celebrated English ma
nufacturers, and in fcvery way imi
tate them. We would p:efer seeing
the national or state coat of arms,
and J. Dunce upon them. Rot ao
great is public prejudice, that to en
able him to sell them in New York,
and the south, he tinds it necessary
I to put on the English statip.

An extract from a letter written in Ni w
Ei. gland to a friend in the West, dated
April 1 b th* 1322.
44 Our section of county never had
such bught and cheering prospect* as
at this moment. Our prosperity nev?r
rested on ?.o good and so permanent a
foundation. The evils of an overdone
paper system never existed here in at
great degree as they do with you; but
those, which weie brought into being
during the late war, and which at tke
close oi it and soon after well nigh ruin
ed us, have passed away. The severe
pressure, then so universal among all
classes of people, a pressure which w??
produced in a great decree by cominu
ing the hahit of p ?(' .^al expenditure
after the means of supporting them
ware lie longer to be obtained, has now
ceased to be felt. We have struggled
through that dark peiiod, and a bright
morning has already dawned. The pro
duce of our land sells at goed prices,
and commands cash. Our manufactories
in general, particularly those of cotton,
and to a considerable extent those of
wool and Iron, are butiiy employed, and
their productions are all in demand at
fair prices. Some facts it may be worth
while to state. In all the rotiun mills in
New llngland, the proprietors Ire put
ting all their roaehiaery in operation,
and many are adding a great deal of
new machinery. A great many oev?
buildings are going up for this purpo??,
and much additional capital is vested in
this business. ? Formerly* some of the
large manufacturers were obliged to
send their {;oods all over the country to
find a market) and had some difficulty id
procuring agents to receive and dispose
of them. Now they have little or no
need of agents. Their goods arc oqder*
