: With the same or better opportunities of accompUsh-
I ing this work, shall we leave it undone? In the lan
guage of one of our most jible and useful Ministers,
an adoptetl son of our State, “It ought to have been
undertaken 20 years ago, but it is not too late to be
gin to do right.”
j In the last two or three months, a fund of about
!j>5000 has been subscribed as a permanent capital.
•At a meeting of the contributors, held at Qreensbo-
rough on the 14th of May, Rev. A. Baker, Chairman,
—the Paper was unanimously located at Fayetteville, ;
: under the namo and title of the Noktii Cakolin.\ j
Pkksbytkkiax. Rev. Wm. N. Mebane and Rev.
George MeNeill were elected Editors: Rev. Messrs. |
George McNeill, Wm. N. Mebane, A. Baker, and C. !
H Wiley, and Messrs. George McNeill, Sr., John H.
Cook and David Murphy were appointed an Executive :
■ Committee, to establish the Paper and manage its I
business aS’airs. i
j It is our wish and design to make the North (’.\ko- !
, Phesbytkri.an a journal of the first class, equal
' to the best in the country in typographical appear- ;
ance and in aiaptation to the wants of our Churches. I
Its columns will afi'ord the latest intelligence, both |
foreign and domestic, and special care will be taken ;
! to give a full and accurate summary of State uews. 1
; The name of the Paper is designed to be an exponent |
of its character and contents. From conviction, it \
■ will advocate the conservative, orthodox, Old School i
doctrines and order of the Church. i
Our first appeal is to our own people—to N. C. !
Presbyterians. Whilst we rely confidently upon their |
favor, we trust that the native sons of North Carolina i
, wno have found homes in other States, and the adopt- j
both ! eil 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 their ■
hearty support. j

Debtors' lives may be insured by creditors. A man
may insure his own life for the exclusive benetit of
his fauiily The lives of slaves may be in.sured.
This system is rapidly growing into favor, all over
the civilized world It is one by which a family, for
a small sum annually, may be provided for, after the
death of its head, on whose exertions they may have
been ilependent for a support. It is a good investmen)
of money, even if one should live long after taking
out a Life Policy. Explanatory pamphlets, and the
necessary Blanks, furnished on application.
