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.

Modern Education.?44 Laming?laming?

Discipline?discipline?discipline, that's the only
education I ever saw, that over brought a boy to

put on his first long tailed blue, if you don t

hard living, early rising, and tlicni sort of classics?

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. During
six months of the most remurkable increase ever
enjoyed hy the American churches, more non.
professors died in this land than were brought into
the visible kingdom of Christ. Alas! alas! the
kingdom of Satan is fearfully strong. 0 that He
who is stronger than the strong man, would spoil

A Shocking Story.?The Milton, N. C.

his daughter approached him, axe in hand, and,
with one blow, split his skull open! The daugh.

may recite the surprise of some of our readers, but
nothing surprises us now-a days.

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.

of Messrs. Rothschild's house, when it is
known that at the beginning of this month it had
in its possession 7 800,000 florins' worth of bilis j

LAUGHABLE STORY.
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

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.

Suddenly there w,is a pau3\ a gurgling sound

fury. I seized my hat and o;rrn<'C lh" door, and
tho whole matter was at once expia n'd; *.v.

spectacle. 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.

COTTON.?The market during the past week
has been extremely buoyant, and prices have advanced
perceptibly. 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. At pre*
sent, the accounts by 4lb January packet, arc
anxiously looked for, and will probably be received
to-day. We quote the extremes of the week, 3J

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 !
