C. CHRISTIAN ADVOCATE. a'HR North Carolina Annual Conference of the MaihodUl Episcopal Church South, having determined to issue a weekly paper bearing the above name, the subscribers an: authorized to Is sue this prospectus. - ft is intended to publish a family newspaper, which, while it shall be religioosja tone and sen timent, ad maintain the doclfines and usages of the Methodist t'hurch, rhaii be devoted to all tte interests of North Carolina and furnish intelli gence for every class of readers. In size and ap pearand the new periodical ia to be equal to any of our Church papers, while H will surpas" them all in. adapted ness to the wants of our people. ; The entire insufficiency of the existing "Advocates" to the necessities of our position forces aa-to the publication of our own paper, and we confidently expect the hearty co-operation of the Members of our Church in alt parts of the State and Confer enre, and hope to make the paper so interesting no instructive as to attract patronage from the public generally. : L. . The ''Advocate" will be published at 11,50 a year a net the first number will be issued as early as practicable after the next - Session f our Con ference. It is believed that the publication wi be commenced on the 1st of January, 1P56. ft is desirable that as force a suhscriplion possible be obtained before the Conference and the Minis ters airmail ethers interested in the enterprise are respectfully urged to secure and forward the names. and address of subscribers, particular at ten tion being paid to correctness in writing . the names of person, post offices pnd Counties Those who may have no opportunity of subpcrib log through the agency of our Ministers may write -directly to Rev. Win E. Pell, Fayetleville, N. C. ' . i - The pjyraent will be expected npon the issue of the first number. The location of the publishing office will be determined at the Session of Con ference. ...

A ew Era About to Dawn Upon North- Carolina.' . - At the constant and earnest solicitation of near ly every body, bat especially the old acquaintan ces of "ye Animal," we have been induced t- prc- mise, if "prorender" enongh can be secured, to trot that beast ont again to the gaze of all man kind, and the universal admiration of womankind, .during ihe'first week in January, 1866. "The Live Giraffe," while it was a neutral pa per, while it grazed in its own green pasturage, played with the guls, and joked with the boys, was the most popular sheet, animator inanimate, that ever issued from. a SouUiern press; and had it been content to have lived in its own native sphere. it would now have; been the ' Brother Jonathan" of the South. Snch a result can but be evident to any thinking man : it was, , tDdeed on the high road to fame and a most enviable f distinction. But becoming fat, in an onlucky , moment, like the man, who had grown "rich rn ' mtgk to ride an aas," and bad. therefore gotten above bis fellows, the "Anitnal" leaped the bars of its accustomed field, and the wit thing we beard of bim, be, like a man turned politician fiomVreacher, was pining for theood things of life, and no doubt, like the silly lamb of old that eluded tUe sight of the shepard, and got into the thick woods which was found to be infested with - wolves, he wished himself back in bis old -range. Bot the bars had been pat another rail higher and she couldn't get back ; besides, he bad grown to lean tbat be could not jump. " f v It is said tbat bought wisdom is the! best in the world, if it dont cost too much. A mighty true saying ; one in which there is moreoftrnih than poetry or romance, and in view of tbis old saying and the? Anniroal's experience; bis old friends need hare little fear that be .will tat any time hereafter cut the same caper again.! He'll kick any man that wonld intimate such a thing. The Live Giraffe will then be nentral. j It w ill be devold to fun, to the news, and literature. It will be made the vehicle of publishing many a thonght to the world, funny, grave and instruc tive, that would have waVted itself on the air "as summer roses do," but for it columns;, it will seek every opportunity to turn grave and uninter esting matters into pleasant and agreeable inci dents ; upset all ill-natured buoiaurty it meet with and mould it anew; expose all rascality wherever found, whether. in Church or State (that's promising a great deal,) or in the social circle, and keep a strict watch on the prea, litera ry, religions and political, and -see tbat eacb keeps its bounds. Tbe citizens of Raleigh know well enough the value of such a sheet, and would not do without it another year for half a million. Why,1 since the exit of the Animal from their borders, they have bad more bad luck than was ever beard of before. More TVuste have been: made, more liens been given upon property, more assignment made, more quarreling and fighting, more drinking of liquor, more meanness generally, and more ill luck than ever was known at any period since the great plague in Egypt, i " j 1 Now tbis is as plain as daylight, and the only remedy for such evils is to trot out the Animal - again. So I think.. ' , ; i . '.j . Now, this ia the proposition I shall- make to . yon. I want a assurance of your willingness to patronize the Animal, and to get that assuraocel sball give you full opportunity to correspond with me and to send in all the names that can be se cured. ':,'--:L "' . ':' - If 500 names crn be secured; we shall hare no Tears a ' the success of the Animal, lie will soon ' grow fat when be begins to take exercise, and, Then he can plead his own case, if -not with elo " 'quent words, at least with an occasional kick at the boy. r -- r --" -. . It has been intimated to me that the connec tion I sustained to the " Carolina Pennant" would r. injure lie Animal since the "Pennant bad sod denly expired and eft many of its subscribers in ... the suds. I have to say here, and I bope it will . satisfy every body, thai I bad no " interest in the .J'Pennant." I wrote most of it Editorials Or - which I should have received something according to agreement bn't I did-not. I have tried this J-etf-bosiness and it neither pays nor suits ray ge '. oius. I want a broad hemisphere, a wide - lati tude, and nobody to divide with me in the spoils. .Then, friendsj we now onderstnd eacb other, si want you to send me your namei between now and the first of January; if enough respond, the -P Animal" will make bis bow; if not, no harm done.
