i i?11 mill ibjkjm; From the Temperance Advocate. TO THE FRIENDS OF TEMPERANCE IN ! SOUTH CAROLINA. The Executive Committee of the State Tcm? perance Society were charged at the late meeting, j < in Columbia, to appoint an Editor of this paper for Ihe ensuing year. That duty was promptly per . - j lermcci, and Mr. tSowman seiccicu. vhii<.u?im about his salary occurred : and until within a few days, it has been uncertain whether he would accept. Like most of the friends of Temperance, he has at length made the same sacrifice, and concluded to resign a fuller and better compensation, by shewing you the value of his services. It is with feelings of no ordinary character, that the Executive Committee announce this consumrnation of their wishes. The Temperance Advocate, as the organ of the Society, and a popular journal of Temperance and Agriculture, is invaluable to us. The uncertainty of its existence for the last month has been a subject of deep ~nxie ty. Now, however, we can assure the friends of Temperance there is no longer any ground for fear. The Editor, who will forthwith enter upon his duties, is a gentleman of talents, information and experience. He knows well, the ground over which he is to pass, and will not only write, and prepare matter for your paper: but he will also visit, as he may have time and opportunity, the different parts of the Slate, and make himself thus thoroughly acquainted with the people, and t? .o.ry a*- p eminent Temperance Lecturer : and we are as. urcd, fully equal to, if not superior to any man, who has ever addressed the people of this State, on this most interesting subject. These are no common qualifications, and we trust they will be nr?in#>rli? annrcciatcd : and the best evidence of it r-~r?j -it ? given, by an increase of our subscription list ? Mr. Bowman s efforts to maintain, and extend the paper, will be sustained by many friends of Temperance, who will furnish occasional contri billions. JOHN BELTON O'NEALL, Pies t. State Temp. Society.

VII a if | Bibles or reslainents were sent forth on tlnir err ^!s of love, everv 'lav of the last year, by the uriHcd efforts of the British and Foreign and American Bible Societies We find the above in an exchange paper, and add that on each day of the last year an average of between 5,000 and J0,000 new families were formed every day, and between 80,000 and 100,00$ persons were born into the world. Our bo' cffhri# are far below the wants of men.

Jan. 10. A son of Major Barker, formerly Comptroller of the Treasury Department, shot himself at Wash- { ington, on the 20th inm , through the head with I a pistol. He was but about 16 years of a;"?. and about an hour previously was with some young men in the Capitol. No cause is assigned for the terrible act, and some of the friends of the family say the act was accidental. The ball entered the temple, and life was soon extinct. What makes : this event the more mclan-holy. is the fact that the same family have previously had severe domcstic affliction. ! .? ? Miss Delia Webster is in the Kentucky Pcni- ' tentiary for alledgcd interference with slavery in that State. The New York Tribune called for the evidence to be published, on which she was committed. The Lexington Reporter replies that the call is ridicutous abolition twaddle, insolent . and insulting,?that Kentucky is as incapable of treating a female with cruelty as she is firm in her faith in the Institution of Slavery, and determined to maintain it within her borders. Some idea may be formed of the financial posrer of Messrs.

The following is a laughable account of the misfortunes that befel an American gentleman upon a visit to a lady in Paris, to whom he bore letters of introduction. After relating a number j of ludicrous and amusing mistakes upon his en. J trance into the presence of the lady, he thus pro. reeds: The ordinary routine of a French dinner com. menrcd. A regular series of servants appeared each instant at our elbows, inviting us to partake of a thousand different kinds of wine, under strings of names which I no more understood than I understood their composition, or they did my rraucherics. Resolute to avoid all further oppor? trinities for displaying my predominant trait, I sat in the most obstinate silence, paying oni to every thing that was offered to me, and eating with the most devoted application, til! my Lir n> ighbir, tired with mv L'w'iiurnitv and her own, at I :ngib j herself began a conversation Tiy inquiring fjhwTt i | was pleased with the ope-a. I was just raising a large morsel of potato to my mouth, and in order to reply as quickly as possible, I hastily thrust it in, intending to swallow it hastily. Heav ens! Tt was as hot as burning lava What eould I do ? The lady s eyes wore (ixed upon me, I waiting a rcp'y to her question. But my mouth was in a flame. I rolled the burning morsel hither and thither, rocking my head from side to side ;' while my eyes which involuntarily I had fixed on her, wcro strained from their sockets. She regarded my grimaces. of the cause of which she was ignorant, with an expression of amusement * I 1. ...I T ana surprise, ai wmrn i can laugu now ?mn * think of it. "Monsieur is ill!" at length she gently and in anxious tone inquired ; I could hear no more.? My mouth was flaying with intolerable pain ; so quietly abandoning the point, I opened it to the utmost, and out dropped the infernal brand upon my plate. Not the slightest tendency to risibility ruffled the impcrturable politeness of the lady. She soothingly condoled with me on my misfortune, then gradually led the conversation to a variety of topics, still exerting the magic influence that true politeness always exercise^ and I began to forget even my own blunders. Gradually my checks burned less painfully, and I could join in the conversation without the fear that every word I uttered shared the fate of the action I attempted; i I even ventured to hope; nay to congratulate myself, that the catalogue of calamities was j completed for the day. "Let no man call himself happy before death," said Solon, and he faid wisely. The Ides of March were not yet over. Before us stood a dish of cauliflower, nicely done in butter. This I naturally enough took for a custard pudding, which it sufficiently resembled. Unfortunately my vo- J cabulary was n-?l extensive enough to embrace all ' ihc technicalities of the table, and when my fair neighbor inquired if I was fond of churjlcur, I ve- 1 rily took it to be the French for custard pudding, I and so high was my panegyric of it that my plate j was bountifully laden with it. Alas, one single ' mouthful was enough to dispel my illusion. Would to Heaven that the chorjlcur had van- j ished with it. But that remained bodily, and as I gazed despondingly on the large mass that loom. J ed almost as large nnd burning as Vesuvius, my heart died within me. Ashamed to confess my | mistake, although I could as readily have swallow. j ed an equal quantity of soft soap, I struggled on ; manfully against the mountainous heap at its base \ ?and shutting my cyc9 and opening tny mouth [ to inhale as large masses as I could without stop- , ping to taste it. But my stomach soon began intelligibly enough to intimate its intention to admit no more of this nauseous stranger beneath its roof, if not even expelling that which had gained an unwelcome admission. The seriousness of the task I had undertaken, j and the resolution necessary to execute it, had | given an earnestness and rapidity to my exertions : which appetite could not have inspired, when my j plate, having got somewhat over the edge of the j table, upon my leaning forward tilted up and i down slid the disgusting mass into my lap. My handkerohief, unablo to bear so weighty a load, bent under it in its turn, end a great portion of it landed safely in my hat. The plate righted itself ?as I raised my person, and I saw as I glanced my Bye around the table that no one bud noticed my We have seen a letter from an agent of the I i Home Missionary Society, says the Manchester J i Daily American, to a gentleman in this city, j which states that 1,000,000 francs have been sent ( I over by foreign Catholic associations to xtend | Catholicism in this country.

I ? The dinner tabic was at length deserted for the j I drawing room, where coffee and lienors were j < served round. Meanwhile I had sought out what i I considered a safe hiding place for my hat, be. I ncath a chair in the dining room, for I dared not carry it any longer in my hand, having first thrown a morsel of paper to hide the cauliflower, should 8ny one chance, in seeking for his own hat, to 1 ok into mine. On my return to the drawing room, I chanced to be again scaled by the lady by whom I had sat at the table. Our conversation was resumed, and we were in the midst of an animated dis.-.us ion, when a huge spider was seen running up her arm. 11 Take it off? take it off!" she ejaculated in a ! terrified voice I was always afraid of spiders; so, to avoid touching him with my hand, I caught my pocket handkerchief from my pocket, and clapped it at once upon the miscreant, who was already mounting over her temple with rapid st.idrs. Gracious heavens! I had forgotten the cauliflower, which was now plastered over her face like an cinolient poultice, fairly killing Ihc spider, and blinding an eye of tho lady?while little streamlets of soft t ii y1' 1 1 nnri bosom. " Mon dicu ! Mun dicu !" exclaimed the astonished fair. " Mon dicu !" was re echoed from every por. son's mouth. " Have you cut your hand ?" inquired one. j " No ! no !?the spider?monsieur is killing the i 1 spider." j " What a qunufity of entrails!" ejaculated an astonished Frenchman, unconsciously to himself. | Well might lie be astonished ; the spray of the | execrable vegetable had spattered her dress from I ; head to foot. For myself, the moment the acci. j j dent occurred, I had mechanically returned my ^handkerchief to my pocket, but its contents re. nnained. ! 14 What a monster it must have been," observed J ajyoung lady, as she helped to relieve iny victim | j from her cruel situation, " I declare I should think it had been living on cauliflower." At that moment I felt some one touch me ; and < on turning, I saw my compani 1 who had^ come with me. " Look at your pantaloons," lie whispered. Already halfdead with the confusion and disaster I had caused, I cast rny eyes upon my once white dress, and saw, at a glance, the horrible extent of my dilemma. I had been sitting on the fatal pocket, and had crushed ou* the liquid butter and ihc soft, paste like vegetable which had bedaubed and dripped down them, till it se med as if it were actually desolving my pantaloons. Darting from the spot, I sprang to tho place where I had left my hat; but before I could reach it a sudden storm of wrath was heard at the door.

There he stood astride like the Colossus, ami stooping ^ntly forward, his eyes forcibly closed, his arni^kooping out from his body and dripping cauliflower and butter from overy pore. I staid no longer, but retaining his hat, I rushed from the house, jumped into a " fiacre,'' and arrived safely home, heartily resolving thatto my latest hour, I would never again deliver a letter of introduction.

We have heard of one sale, ol about bales, wncro a noerai iraac iook place, at 6 cents, but we consider this entirely above the market, under ordinary circumstances.

Charleston, Jan. 23. Cotton.?There lias been an unusual degree of animation in the Upland market'throughout the week just closed. The demand for the article has been freely participated in by the European pur. chaser and buyer for the hoine markets. The sales at the close of the last week were rather , light, in consequence of the high rates demanded. On Saturday, however, holders obtained their terms, and fully G,0U0 bales were taken at the quotations given in our report of that morning. On Sunday last favorable advices readied us from the other side, via New York, which induced holders early on Monday In deinnnd I fuller prices, anil during ihe da)' about 4,000 balc6 ! changed hands, at an improvement of an ? cent, ' and on Tuesday near 3,5'JO bales were disposed of j at this advance. The heavy operations thus early j in the week having materially reduced the sup. ! ply on sale, holders were induced on Wednesday j to advance their pretensions, which buyers were compelled lo accede to in order to complete freight | engagements, and about 2,000 bales were sold at a further advance of an ? cent per lb. ; and for the last two days they have been able to maintain their position, in consequence of the very limited slock in the market and the reduction in the rate of freight to both Liverpool and Havre. We now quote inferior and ordinary 4$ a 4$ ; middling to middling fair 5 a 5$ ; fair and good fair 5} a 6 !
