i''The Orion"

This is the title of a monthly Priodical.
proposed to be published at Kinston, n. c.,
by DR.. j. I. Walsh. The first number will
be issued about the first of July, should the
patronage justify it. He says, THE Orion
will be purely literary, sentimental and mo-
raj in its character, utterly ignoring every
sentiment of a sectarian or UNCONVENTIONAL
cast. Its articles, original and selected wheth-
er in prose or poetry, Will be such as shall
tend to enlighten the mind, educate the heart,
refine the manners, and bring into play all
the finer and more ennobling sentiments of
the human mine No article shall appear on
its pages, unless calculated to elevate our mo-
raj nature, and, as a consequence, to purify
the heart and improve the mind. We intend
making it a gem of its kind a Periodical
which shall commend itself to parents, their
sons and daughters. We shall labor to make
it a welcome visitant in every virtuous fami-
A ly; to the husband, the wife, the daughter
and the son. We design having three de-
partments in the work: 1st, The MisceUaneous:
: I'd, The Ladies Department; Sd, The JuUen-
iIe Department. In this way we hope to be
able to interest all classes of readers, and to
= make The Orion a ~favorite guest in every
family.
The editor flatters himself that, having had
seven or eight years experience IN his profes-
sion, he has acquired some knowledge of its
duties and responsibilities and that, aided,
L as he expects to be, by a number of talented
. contributors, he can, to say the least, make
. his periodical interesting. All proper atten
!. ton will be given to the subject of Education
: particularly that of the female. In a word
we hope to make it what its name imports
:, a Southern constellation and, as such, W,
trust it will receive the liberal patronage of
generous Southern public.
The Orion will be printed on fine vi il,
paper, with a neatly printed cover, 80 page
to the number, and mailed to subscribers 70
81 per annum, payable in advance.

The Spirit of the Age.

At scarcely any time since the commence
ment of this Paper, has it been in a more
prosperous condition. Thanks to the kind
efforts of friends innumerable, our subscrip-
ton list has run up to nearly as high a point
as it has ever reached-being now over five
thousand. And the list continues to increase.
This is highly gratifying and encouraging 20
US, IN our efforts to furnish the South with .
cheap and wholesome journal for the family
circle-inculcating the pure lessons of Tenn
perance, and furnishing them with a home
journal of chaste and v~irtuous literature.
The success with which we have met, in
spires US with the belief that we have not la.
bored in vain-that the course of the Age has
met with the appreciation of its numerous
readers We can only promise then, in the
f~ullness; of our gratitude for the confidence
and aid in the past, that in the future, our eff
forts she III be still exerted to please, and rem
der our paper the vehicle for conveying to it,
readers wholesome truths and useful informa
ton. To Temperance, the constant and I'm

Temperance Colportage.

It will be remembered, that at the late ses-
sion of the Grand Division, it was resolved to
adopt the Colportage system, in distributing
Temperance tracts and books throughout the
State of North Carolina. A Committee was
appointed to perfect the plan, and put the
system in operation, as soon as funds were
raised to do 80. The funds are to come from
a portion of therevenue accruing to the Grand
Division from the Subordinate Divisions
Hence the increase of the quarterly per CAPT
ia tax from five to ten cents.
The Returns for the quarter ending with
the present month will be made out with this
increase, and IS soon as the Divisions shall
report and forward their respective sums, the
| Committee will apply the portion belonging
to this fund to the purchase of tracts, and tc
the perfecting arrangements for carrying out
| the urposes of the Grand Division. Hence
| the necessity for Subordinates being prompt
in sending up their Returns and per centage
to the Grand Scribe.
This is an important movement-one cal
culated to do great good-and one by which
every Division may avail itself to great prof
to its own community. But we will not dwell
! longer upon the subject at present, as th'
Committee viii soon explain the objects an
operations of the movementat length, through
our columns.

their enemies, fight old Alchy, and strive to
do goodto their fellow-mea. It is hard. to be
abused for trying to do good, but such perse.

A New INsTIrUTIoN.-We learn that a
Whiskey distillery, on a large scale, is soon
to be established in the immediate vicinity Of
Go1dsboro'. We have NJ particular objection
to the manufacture of whiskey, but we do
insist that only a limited quantity of Strich-
mine be used. The health Of the communi-
ty should be considered in the establishment
of all institutions intended for the PUBLIC

Plain Home TrufhS

A Correspondent, writing from Mississippi,
tells us how good is made to come out Of
evil" by the introduction of poisoned liquors
into his part of the State. He says:
ut has been customary ever since | resided
IN this State, for our liquor dealers and drink
erst to ship considerable quantities of whiskey,
from the northwestern States down our great
river, which many of our citizens bought and
used very freely. But after a while it was as
certained, after emptying some of their best
Rectltied" barrels, that there were quantities
of tobacco and red pepper found in the bot
toms OF the barrels. Well, we could stand
that, by gruInbling a little when we would
get down to the tobacco and pepper: but Of
late years they are putting strichnine in it;
and that Is what We can't stand, for it will
Kill "as sure as a gun" 1t isa ~rascaIly thing

for good rectiffed. But, sir, | can assure YOU
it is having a good effect upon many of our
citizens. They are quitting the use of it
They are afraid of it. They have folnd out
1t is a very dangerous thing to deal with. I
for n know it to be so, for / have tried it
myself. And as / still feel warm attach
ments for my old native State, and have num-
bers Of relations and friends which are In
that good old State. let me say to one and al.
be careful how you deal with spurious liquors.

Mississippi is not the only place where
they have the Warranted to kill at a hun
dred yards" stuff. 1t is all over the country.
The truth is, there is very little to be found
that Is not strongly i~mpregnated with the
worst kim Of poisons and the only safe plan
is to avoid all, and then you are sure to escape

Buncombe County.

We learn from private Correspondents and
the Asheville Spectator, that the late ~anniver-
sary of W~ashington's birthday, was hand
somely observed by the Sons of Temperance
in old Buncombe county. Asheville Divis-
ion had an able address by Rev. John N.
Carlisle. Reems' Creek Division was favor
ed with speeches by Rev. VIM. H. Bates and
our friend of the quill, Bro. Henry, of the
Spectator and Academia Division was ad-
dressed by Rev. DR.. Cummings, G. w. P,
and others. The Spectator says, after mott
cling the above" So, friend German, you
see the cause is not quite dead yet, in the
mountains at least not in Buncombe." No,
friend Spec. Neither dead nor sleeping"
We wish the Order all over the State would
manifest q like activity and zeal in the cause.
We would soon have the good times of old
return upon us, if they would.

rourth. E.etets upon the foreign popuLG-
-sson.-So far as We have to do with foreign
ere IN this State, we find that the German
Messenger, and the books we carry them in
!ne dlfferent languages they speak, to be near
y II not quite all the religious instruction
some OF them ever get, which they gladly re-
ceive, generally and this work is equally
aoapted to their wants as to our own. know
some who have been converted through this
fundamentally, and now, instead of spread
ING the dreadful errors they brought here,
tney are exerting a saving influence among
our people as well as their own %countrymen.
In conclusion, / would say that although
We have had obstacles to retard our progress
the past year, yet Gods hand is clearly to be
seen IN the work, in the good it has already
done many souls and the books will con-
tnue preaching Jesus long after the Colpor-
teur closes his years work or dies. And q
striking Providence is to be seen in raising
up suitable men who willingly give up lu-
cratlve positions to engage in this for $3.50
and travelling expenses. And q gracious
providence has been equally visible in dis
posing benevolent friends to give cheerfully
OF their means to help support this work il
amounts from $500 down to the poor wild
ows % cents. The names of donors an,
amounts are given in the Messenger, and tn
full amount from N. c., will be given in tn

supporting our own work, and it is imposs
BILE for us to call on all personally. Friend

carefully the tenth verse of the third chaptt
of Malachi aase second verse of the sixteet
chapter of first Corinthians, and the eight
