We the Committee to whom was referred | the G. W. P's first Quarterly Report, beg j leave respectfully to submit the following ! REPORT: The Committee would first congratulate i * this body upon the healthy condition of the | Order generally. Although not increased i' in number materially, vet thorc seems to be | more zeal and determination to carry out the j objects of our noble Order manifested than 11 for some time past. The reports received from different sections are really encourag- j ing, and should inspire us with the hope 1< that ere long the end for which we are con-11 tending shall be attained. Your Committee would bring to your no- j tico the suggestion of the G. \V. P. in reference to punctual attendance upon our i weekly meetings. Wo heartily concur with I <i.. i\ \\r i-? -- i >i mo Vjr. u. J Ztliu WOllMl lirgO lipOll tllC members of Subordinate Divisions the great! necessity of attending their weekly meetings, | as upon it depends the prosperity and sue-j cess of the whole Order. The Trnct enterprise, which has been in successful operation, under charge of an able , and efficient Committee, we would reeom-j mend to your further favorable consideration and support. By these tracts we often reach i and gain over those whom we could not pos-1 sibly touch by any other means, as many who are opposed to us will not, and cannot, be induced to listen to argument or yield to the entreaty of friends. The newspaper which is in contemplation j as an organ of litis body, recommends itself to the aid and support of every true Son of1 Temperance, as a measure of vital import-1 ance. A society without a medium of com 1 municntion with the world, cannot promise success to any plan proposed, however well directed, when public opinion are to he | wrought up and changed which have been long accustomed to certain usages and habits. \V? would, therefore, urge upon this body and the Subordinate Divisions to take hold of this matter with a right spirit, and endeavor to establish a Tempernnco newspaper upon a firm and solid hasia?to avai? yourselves efficiently in obtaining subscribers to the paper. We tvotild further favorably report upon the suggestion of the G. W. P. in regard to bringing up and publishing the Minutes of tliift Grand Division, and the Rules and Principles of the Grand and National Divisions, in pamphlet or some durable form, so they may be preserved, which has been placed under care of a Committee, whom wo hope will soon have the work properly executed.

I understand that only thrtt hundred subscribers have been added to the list of the new Temperance paper, proposed to be publishod in Columbia. .This is just what I expected, and is a crying shame ou those who are unmindful of the enterprise. Your " Enterprise " is, I trust, more successful than we can dare hope ours to be; yet, there is no reason that ours might not be eminently so, save that selfishness, of rather a low order, is too ofien a prominent characteristic of fallen humanity. Thanks, tlint even in such hearts there are many redeeming traits. Is there any liopo for our cause where self absorbs every other feeling ! Certainly, to a limited extent; for enlightened &elfi>h policy will eschew grog as the greatest banc to success. But in tho higher and nobler aspects of progress, little can be expected whilo selfishness rules tho masses. Thus it is, that in taking care of our own wo sometimes forget the interests of others ; and, very often, the solemn fact might be truthfully recorded, that the more rapid our worldly success, the more certain our moral decline. This need not be. To help others is the surest way to help ourselves. To raise our brethren from degradation to our own level, but places us one step higher, and the good of one member of society is the good of tho whole. Hut enough of this for the present. Much to the disappointment of the good brethren at Hranchvilte, our meeting of the Grand Division was thinly attended. Why were not more of the brethren there ? The accommodations were more than ample, and all that hospitality could suggest, or inge nuity prepare, was ready for our reception ; and the only regret was, that there weio so few, as recipients of such disinterested favor. Arrangements had been mado for a pr< cession on Thursday, but the weather would not admit ?f that which we all so much desired.
