The un dersigned proposes to publish in the Town of Tar borough, from the 1st of January, 1852, the Southerner, a Democratic, Agricultural and Miscellaneous newspa per. From the small number of Democratic papers in the State, we confidently ask the support of the party. Few political fields offer to the ready mid willing work man in our cause promise of a more almndnut harvest, than North Carolina. Our party are becoming, day by day, more uianimous on the subject of slavery and its incidental doctrines, which our opponents so conGdently thoug'.it would destroy our organization, while many ef their own party are fast becoming disatisfied with the cringing position they would have us occupy in our Na tional Union. To encourage and perfect this unaiiimity of our own party, and to show to the disalislicd of our opponents that such dissatisfaction springs from a true appreciation of liberty and a correct view of patriotism, is the peculiar proier work of the press. Support, then. Democrats, as you ought and can. your party papers, throughout the State. The Southerner will be tho exponent of EJgecombc, it will advocate her principles, cherish the progressive spirit ot her people, and defend her reputation and good name; As such, we hope to embody in it, by the talents of our farmers and citizens generally, the practical rules and successful experience, which have increased so much her productive industry; and thereby make it, to the citzens of other counties, a neighborly and instructive messenger.. As a village paper, we hope to make The Southerner, ny the variety of its matter, interesting to all. Its col umns will be open to a free and liberal discussion of all sbbjects instructive and amusing. 'I'eu.ms In advance, $2,00; otherwise, 9 50. GEORGE HOWA D. Jn.

He will be assis ted by Geo L. Gould, a pupil of mine, who has been cutting all the Coats made up for our customers for the last fourteen months, and has no superior in that depart ment. I have left in the concern all the patterns I havd of my customers scattered all over the State, and they may rely upon being as faithfully served, having their cloths, as well cut and made, and the quality of the ma terials just such as would be furnished, wete The BUG.' present in "propria persona." 1 have laboured hard to build up a business in North Carolina, and desire that those who hare patronised me shouM continue to uphold my late partner, particularly when assured by me, that they will be as well served as tbey were under the administration of Oliver & Procter.
