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 and willing work man in our cause promise of a more ahundant 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 confidently thought 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 unanimity of our own party, and toshow to the disatisfied of our opponents that such dissatisfaction spring from a true appreciation of liberty and a correct view of patriotism, is the peculiar proper work of the press. Supjort, then. Democrats, .as you ought and can. your party papers, throughout the State. - The Southerner will be tho exponent of Edgecombe, it will advocate her principles, cherish the progressive spirit ol 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 citizens of other counties, a neighborly and instructive messenger. ', ' ,1 . - 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. ' . : Terms In advance, $2,00 ; otherwise, $ 50. . GEORGE HO WA D, Ja.
