At lilt* Trriuiiiiis of the lireiit Oiitral Kail Rond of
.N'ortli (’arollIIii,
OW BEAUFORT HARBOR,
ON THL’RSDAY, NOVEMRER 12, 1857.
1.AROLINA (’ITV is situated on an elevated plain,
about 1-") feet r.bove tide water, immediately on
the waters of Reaufiut Harbor. This location for a
great commercial City was selected by men of com
mercial experience, after a full examin;ition of all the
lands on the Harbor of Reaufort. and in anticipation
of the construction of the great t'entral Rail Road
from said Harbor through the State of North ('aro’iiiia,
connecting with the lines of the Rail Roads of Ten
nessee coming east from Memphis on the Mississippi,
ami also in anticip.ition of the construction of a Rail
Road troiii Carolina City through the counties of Ons
low, Duplin. Sampson, and the town of Fayetteville,
to the ('oal Fields on Deeji !{iver. 'I'lie .Vtlantic amf
North ('arolina Rail Road, from t’arolina t’itj', to
Goldsborough, will be opened by the 1st January next;
the North Carolina Rail luiad is in operation to the
town of Salisbury, from which point the construction
of the great Western Rail Road, through the moun
tains to the Tennessee line, is steadily jirogressing.
The Rail Road through Fayetteville to the Coal Fields
lias tor some time occupied the attention of the State,
and doubtless will eventually be put in operation,—
that part between Fayetteville and the Coal Fields be
ing in rapid course of constructicm. The completion
of these great Rail Roads will carry the agricultural
and mineral products of the State to one of the finest
harbors on the Southern coast, and must at an early
daj- build up on its wateis a flourishing City.
All the agricultural regions of the State, not pene-
trateil by said R.iil Roads, have e.asy communication
with lU'aufort Harbor by n.avigable Rivers and Sounds.
Of the Harbor of I’>eaufort, we believe it to be un
necessary now to speak: the depth of its waters, its
proximity tj) the (iulf Stream, (the highway of ships.)
and its capacity for all commercial purposes, are not
only well iinown to every North Carolinian, but have
attracted the attention of the country generally.
The Carolina City (’ompany believe that the advan-
t-iges of the location which they have selected are
many: their laml is a high and level plain, looking
southward upon the ocean: its wells and springs afford
the purest waters, and the salubrity of the climate is
so well known, that lieaufurt is believed tobethemost
healthy watering place on the Southern coast.
At this location, the channel for ships bends in near
to the shore and runs parallel with it along the whole
front of thtt City, making the construction of wharves
cheap and easy. The harbor and wharves at Carolina
City, being a short distance from the conflux of Rogue
Sound and Newport River, and not immediately in
front of the Inlet, are anexposed to the violent storms,
and yet a ship may set sail from the Hail Road wharf
in Carolina City and in thirty minutes be at sea.
These are some ot th« advantjiges which determined
the selection of the location of Carolina City: and so
great a confidence had the Company in the superiority
of these advantages, Ihi)/ th>ii mhnrri/ieil und patil m

THE NORTH CAROLINA PRESBYTERL\N.
/■IIIE Presbyterian Church in North Carolina has
I M. long laborecl under a serious disadvantage from
' tlie want ol a journal to advocate her claims and rep
resent her interests. It is estimated that only 100(>
j Presliyterian \Veeklies are taken in the.bounds of our
three Presbyteries We have 13,000 Communicants,
, and it is safe to infer that there are 30,000 Presbyte-
; rians in pri.'iciple in the State. Our Synod stands
■ fifth in the Union in point of numbers, and her mem-
i bersliip is greuter than that of any Synod South or
j West of Penii.sylvania. Our sister States on the North
and South., neither of which has a membership so
large as ours, jmblish the Central, and the Southern
' Presbyterian, for the benefit of their people. The
' time has come when the Presbyterian Church in North
I ('arolina should likewise do her duty to her children,
j It is a conceileJ and important fact, that hundreds of
; our memlters will take a State paper who will take no
i other. The Paper is needed to be the organ of our
I Synod and Presbyteries—to elevate and enlighten the
' piety of our membership by diffusing evangelical
i knowledge—to promote the cause of Education—to
j develope the talents of our Ministry, and to strength-
i en the attachment of our people to the soil and sanc-
I tuaries of their own State.
I I f our Church in other States, and other Churches
in tills State, can supply their members with a Re-
I ligioiis journal, why may not we'' Are North Caro
lina l’res’.>3 terians inferior in talent, energy ami
[ p itriotisin to their neighbors on the North or South,
i or to Cliristi ins of other dentiniinatioiis at home?
I With the same or better dpportunities of acconiplish-
I iiig this work, shall we ieave it undone? In the lan-

to the best ill the country in typographical appear
ance and in adaptation to the w'ants of our Churches.
Its columns will alfonl the l.itest intelligence, both

to give a fiili .-iiid .K-ttiirate sutumary of State news.

Our tii't appeal is to our own people—to N.
Presbyterians. Whilst we rely confidently upon tine
t.ivor, we trust that the native sons of North t.’arolina
who have found homes in other States, and the adopt
ed 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.
