roz, oa:
Dear reader, have you ncveV walked,
At early dawn or even tide,
In some coo! grove, or on the brink
Of waters slceninjr far ami wide:
When winds and waves were sunk to rest,
And silence ad the earth caressed?
The first low whisncr. movinc leaf
Or wing was heard; and far on shores
nemoie irora tnose you trod, now loua
The sound of boatmen shipping oars!
So still was all, without, within,
For one to speak it seemed a sin.
Scenes, such as these, with little thought,
Point us to nations in their birth;
When every deed the patriot does,
To save the State is blazoned forth:
The statesman's plea, the warrior's arm,
Like Patrick Henry's, spreads alarm.
But when the elements of death
Are roused, and men go forth to war.
Or, when the breeze of enterprise
Has grown into a stunning roar;
Then, who would fix the public eve,
Must do great things or be passed" by.
So, in the literary world,
The first attempts at wit or song,
Or those that aim at solid worth,
Arc tho't of much and talk'tl of long:
When better deeds in after days,
Lie piled unnoticed in the public ways.
Let him, therefore, whose eyes arc fixed
On fame's star-courting, dizzy height;
Beware of sloth: yes, mental sloth
Will clothe his soul in starless night:
And none so miserable as those
Who love with sleepy Indolence to doze.

Thou'rt false to me thou'rt false to me,
And pride shall teach me to forget;
Vt still my heart beats warm for thee
I love thee yet 1 love thee yet!
I thought to still
Each burning thrill,
I thought to drown each fond regret,
But ah! my soul
Forbids control
I love thee yet I love thee yet!
xt?AZZ?Z!!r-
ynr dreams that, like the wounded bird,
I bear the shaft beneath the wing.
But in my bower
At twilight hour,
I ourn o'er hopes forever set;
And tears might tell,
How much too well
leve thee yet I love thee yet!

the only newspaper in Wilmington;
and there is reason to believe, will
continue unopposed while impartially
and temperately conducted.
The location of this Journal, in the
first seanort town of the extensive
Stale of North-Carolina, will imme
diately occur to persons at all conver
sant in topographical knowledge.
There is a good second hand Ramage
Press, and a sufficient quantity of
small tvpe, to carry on a newspaper
of the size of the Recorder. It is be
lieved that less than 5100, judiciously
applied, would purchase all the addi
tional ornamental type Mat woulu be
necessary for printing a variety of
jobs in the best taste. I he subscrip
tion list to the Recorder is not a long
one, but the names are generally good.
To a single man who is a practical
printer; who is unembarrassed; who
is also industrious al persevering:
the proprietorship of a paper in Wil

tence and might inspire him with
hopes of extended patronage, at no

PROSPECTUS OF THE
Western Carolinian,
Edited by Burton Craige, in Satis
bury, N. Carolina.
rjIIE Western Carolinian is devoted
to general politics, political econo
my, state papers, literature, foreign
and domestic news, agriculture, me
chanics, &c.
In politics the Editor is a thorough
paced democratic republican. He
advocates the doctrines of Free Trade
and State Rights is opposed to the
exercise of constructive powers and
incidental rights. He is opposed to
the Tariff and its offspring, Internal
Improvements, by the General Gov
ernment. He is in favor of Internal
Improvements by the State Govern
ments. Believing the re-election of
(Jen. Jackson will be the surest means
of perpetuating those liberties in de
fence of which he has contributed so
much, the Editor will advocate his
re-election with unflinching zeal and
manlv firmness.
TERMS. The Carolinian is prin
ted once a week on a larre imperial
heet of good quality, with new type;
and will be sent to subscribers at $2
per annum, tj paid within three
months, or S2:50 after that time.
Advertising at the usual rates. As
the Carolinian has the widest circula
tion of any paper in the Western part
of the State, advertisers would find it
much to their advantage to advertise
in its columns.
Any one procuring six solvent sub
scribers to the Carolinian, shall have
a seventh paper gratis. (JPostage
must be paid on all letters addressed
to the Editor. Jan. 1832.

Edenton, N.C Dec. 20, 1S31.
To the Editors 5f Publishers oj
JONATHAN ELLIOTT, of the
City of Washington, respectfully
requests the Editors or Publishers of
Newspapers within the several States
and territories of the Union, to fur
nish him, through the Members of
Congress of their particular States or
Districts, at the seat of the Federal
Government, with three copies of
their newspapers ( marked with t;one "
"two" and Uhree,J) issued on (or
about) Wednesday, the 22d of Febru
ary, 1832, (being the centennial An
niversary of General Washington.)
As his motive is entirely disinte
rested and patriotic in making this re
quest, it being his desire to produce
positive evidence of the number of
newspapers printed in the United
States and their Territories, he de
sires that particular attention may be
paid to this request; and above all, by
the publishers of country papers, in
distant towns that are, comparatively,
little known; and if, at the same time,
they would communicate in their pa
pers any "statistical information, re
lative to their immediate neighbor
hood, it would be highly appreciated
and gratefully acknowledged."
It is intended that every newspaper
received, shall be carefully preserved
and arranged, by Slates, in a room at
Washington, devoted for this object;
one set to be eventually deposited in
the Library of Congress; the duplicate
set to be transmitted to O. Rice, Esq.
of London, (Agent for the purchase
of books, &c. for 4he Congressional
Library) to be-by him placed in the
British Museum; and the triplicate
set to be retained for some public in
stitution. 1
It is intended. !
collection is completed, to publish in
tabular form, in the public prints,
or the information of the people of
the U. States, a list of all the newspa
pers, embracing thR
and period of publication," and
terms of subscription." Great pains
will be bestowed to make this list
.kud important result to be gath
ered from the collection) as pel feet as
the materials will admit.
(CFIt is hoped that the intelligent
conductors of Newspapers, favorable
to the above project, will oblige the
advertiser by inserting this commu
nication in their respective papers, to
each of whom a copy 0f the "tabular
statement" will be transmitted as
roon as published. ja 28.
