He is a bright mulatto, almost white, about 23 years
old, about 5 feet ‘J inches high, straight hair, and teeth
defective, long beard on his chin when he left. Had
on when he left a very good suit of clothes, and will very
likely try to pass off for a white man, and make far a

C. II. W II.KY.
Number is a new and revised edition of the North
Carolin.'v Reader, first published in 1851. Numbers 1
■and 2 just issued, complete the series, which i.s, ;i.s ii
whole, cheaper than any other series of Headers in the
Uiiited States, ami as complete.
The IMilor (Prof. Hubbard) in his Preface to Num
ber 1 deems it proper to allmlctoa few of the peculiar
advantages aimed at by the Superintendent of Common
Schools while making eftorts to have this work com
pleted. These are,
1, The encournijemenl of n ffilinij >f sclf-dritendi'uce,
and the enlistment of popular sentiment in behalf of
the State and its institutions. It was not thought im
portant, however, to have more than one number of
the Readers of merely a local interest.
2, Tu n iiicitii the evil ecenjwhere complained of in eom-
mo7i schools, of a perpelwil rhanfie in text hook.-, ^in ex
pensive habit, and one which injures the Schools by
preventing the children from being classified. A se
ries of home Readers, it was supposed, would be cer
tainly used, and this great evil thus avoided.
3, Kconoinif, the popular system of Readers being
too long and being made so often merely to add to
the profits of authors and publishers.
This series is to consist of fewer numbers than
those gener.ally used, and it is believed that these
numbers are sufficient, while if the system were uni
versally used in the State, the sum saved to parents
and children would amount to several thousand ddllars
annually.
4, To fntl in the hands of children learning to read coin-
I'ositionx itiilfirientl;/ familiar hut not of the character called
childinh comjiositions, containing, in lessons easy enough
for all ages, correct specimens of style, interesting in
matter, and inculcating proper morals, and religious
instruction.
The prices .are, for No, 1, 25 cents; No. 2, -37^ cents;
and -No. 3, 75 cents. A liberal deduction from these
prices to Merchants and School Teachers.
