PROSPECTUS
of the People' Advocate and Cgsstitutiosal
Reformer.
The subscriber proposes to publish in Ruther
fordtou, North Carolina, a weekly paper to be ca li
ed "The People's Advocate asd Coxstitctiokal
Reformer," (The principal object of the paper,
will be .to adyocate the call of an unrestricted Con
vention, by the people of North Carolina, to take
into consideration ihe propriety of amending the
constitution of the Slate iu such a manner as ihey
may desire, and to shew the danger to which our in-
-stitotions will lie exposed y permitting that instru
ment to be amended or altered by the Legislature.
The subscriber believes that this is the most impor
tant question which can engage the attention ef
the people ef North Carolina. The character and
prosperity of the whole Stale depends upon it. A
people cannot be free who a re forbidden to form astd
reform their -.awn constitution, they cannot be sov
ereign, if their Legislature can say to them, "thus
far aha It thougni; "alid no farther. This is a ques
tion which rises far above Party. It is a question
of liberty, which effects every citizen of our noble
old State.
" Tlie subscriber"will also srand by the Constitution
of tite putted States and the Union, and will freely
denounce all attempts Ukjfasiroy that' which was
built by the blood of our ancestor?, the purest blood
of patriots the vttrld ever knew. But while he is
willing to abide "by the action of the General Gov
ernment thus far, be is by no means an advecate of
a tame submission to any aggressions upon the
right of the South. Any interference with our
institutions, oh the part of the General Government,
nriwrranled by tlie Constitution of" the United
States, should be praperly and firmly resisted.
He belie ves that the cause of complaint now exist
ing is against the insane and lunatic doings of a
port on of the people of ihe aon-ebtveho)ding State,
not against the action of the General Government.
This can be, remedied by proper action within the
constitution,. the partoftbe people of tlie South
ern States, without adopting the suicidal-and i evo
lutionary measure of a dissolution of the Union.
The subscriber will endeavor to develop the re
sonrcesaf Western North Carolina, so far as he
can do so, by laying before the public'a faithful pic
ture of our agricultural manufacturing' and' min
ing facilities. No portion of t!te Union poss esses
all tile facilities to a greater extent, and nothing
but the want of a proper systfetn of internal improve-ment,-prevents
this portiou o.9the iStatef3om'becom
ing the fairest in-the UnioJh'
The subscriber expects io be assisted in his la
bors by many gentlemen of talents and- distinction
ia the State. He will council with and be advised
by older and better men, He has consented to take
charge of a paper with great! reluctance; Ho has
been urged to it, by gentlemen firms all'fjtoartera in
the WW.and has yielded to a sense of duty, at
great personal sacrifices;- add witJi' ne expectation
of pecuniary compensation. He appea-ls- to the
fiiends of Constitutional' reform, and to the friend
of the Union to see that he sustains no loss. He
is svilling-to bestiDW hi own labor without" one far
thing of remuneration for tlie sake of the canse
in which he has enlisted- The cause needs- an
advocate devotedto it exclusively. The Register,
Times, and Star in Ra&igh, the FayeHfcvilb? Ob
server, tlie Wilmington Commercial, and most of
tlie papers in Western' North Carolina have no
bly taken their stand on the rightside. Every pa
triot in ihe State owes them a deep debt of gratit
ude. -.But. they are all devoted more particularly
to other subjects, and only regard th great meas
ure sls of secondary Importance. He. does not de
sire to deprive them ef a "single subscriber; ba
withes the success commensurate with their merits
and will take great pleasure iff assisting them to
the utmost or his power, ms otyeci win ue w
break down- the barriers between tlie, East and
West, to shi.vr that they are not natural enemies,
that their interests cau be united whenever mutual
confidence shall be established, and when that un
ion she U be effected, but not till then will INowa
Car.-KiiR occupy tlie position to which her resources
and her people entitle he. ...
, The publication of The People's Advocate'
will be commenced about the 1st of June if the
subscription justrfy it. Athe subecrlber enters
into the undertaking with noview to make money,
he mast be secured against fciss by hi awbscription
