Nov 22 S. N. CHANDLER. T)IlOPOSAL.S for issuing THE NORTH CARO X LINA STANDARD, semi-weekly.—The un dersigned proposes to publish The North Caroli na Standard nfler the first of February, 18-16, twice a week. Many democrats, in various quar ters of the State, desire this, and it is believed it can be done, if exertions arc made in its behalf among the democratic parly generally. The im portance of such an issue is, it seems to the under signed, too apparent to require arguments in ils favor. A semi-weekly paper ought surely to be sustained by the democratic party of the State, (a party which cnst3 40,000 votes,) especially as the Federalists have ftoo Semi-weeklies, in addition to two papers to our one in the State. Think of this, democrats, and of the influence which such publi cations must inevitably exert upon the public mind. The Weekly Standabo will be published as heretofore, and, the undersigned flatters him-clf, will be much more interesting and valuable than it is at present. It will contain at least eight cot mans more of reading matter than it does now. TERMS : The Semi-weekly Standard will be published at Four Dollars, if paid withir. the first three months, or Five Dollars, if delayed beyond tlr t period ; and th* weekly Standard at Three Dollars per annum, payable in advance. Both the Weekly and Semi- Weekly will he print ed at the pteseiti size, on fine paper anti with new type Subscriptions to both papers are most re spectfully and earnestly solicited ; and subscribers to the present paper, who are willing to take the Semi-Weekly instead of the Weekly, will please inform the undersigned of the fact, by letter or otherwise, on or bclerc the 8th of January, 1846.
