80tf PROSPECTUS OP sT-V THE NORTH CAROLINA PRESBYTERIAN. BIHET Presbyterian Church in North Carolina has IS- long labored under a serious disadvantage from the want ofa journal to advocate her claims and represent her interests. It is estimated that only 1000 Presbyterian Weeklies 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 Presbyterians in principle in the State. Oar Synod stands fifth in the UnioQ in point of numbers, and her membership is greater than that of any Synod South or West of Pennsylvania.

Our sister States on the North and South, neither: of 'which has a membership so large as ours, publish the and the Southern Presbyterian, for the benefit of their people. The time has come when the Presbyterian Church in North Caroliua.should likewise do her duty to her children. It is a conceded and important fact, that hundreds of Donaldson Academy. 7HE next Session of this Institution will begin on Monday the 21st of under the joint charge of J. Robinson and Mr.

Geokge A. Cairns. The Academy building is on Hay Mount, and, in its location, combines the advantages of ample room for the out-door exercises of the Students, and freedom from all causes of hin-derance in the diligent pursuit of their studies. It is the of the Instructers to make this a school of high rank, and they call upon Parents and Guardians to aid them, by their patronage, iu the accomplishment of this purpose, believing that there is iu Fayetteville and its vicinity a sufficient number of Boys to support such an Institution.

72-tf which will be found in another columu. This successful institution was incorporated by the Legislature of Connecticut in 1819, with a perpetual charter. Its capital is anife its accumulations exceed $800,000 more, making its entire assets ever invested as detailed in the statement referred to These results indicate that during the period of nearly forty years since its organization, (without a single change of its chief officer,) its business has been conducted with judgment and prudence. It Las been thus far successful in an eminent degree, discharging, as we are informed, all its obligations by the payment of about ten million dollars for losses, without asking a day's delay in any instance. It has had but little litigation, notwithstanding the immense number of transactions made.

In order to attain as much certainly as possible in such a business as insurance, it has been tUpbractice of the Company, for several years, at great labor, carefully to classify and arrange their risks into about fifty distinct classes, so as to ascertain the amount insured on each class, the amount of premiums received thereon, and the amount of losses up on each. This classification, extending over a long covering property to a very large amount.fur-nishes reliable data, and presents a sound, substantial basis of actual experience, upon which to conduct its business. Insurance is not a matter of luck or chance, as many suppose; its hazards are ascertainable, and its principles capable of being reduced to a system, the practical working and results of which are as certain as that of any other business. The Company, by adhering rigidly to its system, and placing its business upon a healthy basis, has obtained the confidence of the community to an extent surpassed by no other Company in the U. States, and has increased its business and its income from year to year with a steady growth.

One great source of its security is the wide distribution of its risks a policy which it pursues with great strictness limiting the amount to be covered in each locality. By this course it has passed, with comparative impunity, through some of the most sweeping and destructive fires, which have swallowed up other companies less cautious in their business. It is a system like this, based upon experience, which gives stability and soundness to a company, and to the assured confidence and security. Baltimore Patriot. mmm compmy, HARTFORD, CONN.

If our Church in other States, and other Churches in this State, can supply their members with a Religious journal, why may not we? Are North Carolina Presbyterians inferior in talent, energy and patriotism to their neighbors on th North or South, or to Christians of other denominations nt home? With the same or better opportunities of accomplishing this work, shall we'leave it undone?

It is our wish and design to make toe North Carolina Presbyterian a journal of the first class, equal to the best in the country in typographical appear ance and in adaptation to the wants of our Churches. Its columns will afford the latest intelligence, both foreign and domestic, and special 'care will be taken to give a full and accurate summary of State news. The name of the Paper is designed to be an exponent of its character and contents. From conviction, it will advocate the conservative, orthodox, Old School doctrines and order of the Church.

Our. first appeal is to our own people-o N. Whilst we rely confidently upon their favor, we trust that the native sons of Nortn Carolina who have found homes in other States, and theadopt-ed citizens of our State who form so important au elemeut in our Ministry and membership, will take a deep interest iu this enterprise and give it their hearty support. Terms: 2 per annum in advance, or on. delivery of the first number; $2 50 in six mouths; $3 at the entLf the year.

To clubs of 25 or more, paying in advance and when the Paper is sent to one address, a discount of 10 per cent, will be allowed. Our Ministers and Elders are earnestly desired to act As Agents, aud all others friendly to the cause will please assis-in procuring as many subscribers as possible, and forward the names, by August 1st, to this Office. As soon as 1500 subscribers are obtained, the first number will be issued. If a faithful and vigorous effort is made in the next two months by those who take a lively interest in this work, we will, without doubt, be able to begin the publication at the end of that time with a paying subscription list of at least "000.
