Temperance Demonstration.
We had the plea sure of participating with Recall

their celebration on Thursday Inst. This Division
it one of the six Divisions in tiiis District, and
U located at Fountain Inn. Its meetings arc held
at the residence of Col. Wm. McNrkly.
Although the day was rainy, nnd exceedingly
unpleasant, we were gratified to find many persons
in attendance, inelnding a goodly number of
ladies. Go where we n?ny, In any portion of the
District or country, and we find woman ardei.t
ly attached to the cause of temperance. She animates
the friends of the cans* by her presence,
and cheers them by approving smiles nnd words.
No matter if it docs rain, or if the ronds he
muddyr or the day cold, she is sure to attend the
meetings iu behalf of temperance. It is the wives,
and mothers, and sisters, who suffer most from
the evils of intemperance, rather than the poor
inebriate, and may Heaven send it# richest, blessings
upon her prayers and lalairs. So long ns
woman continues the ardent, nnd hopeful advocate
of cold water, its friend* have reason to conthme,

of speeches by distinguished advocates, but
of the stondy and upward growth of tein|>er*nce

Corn Boor.
Beer made by the following rcetj?c we can recommend

I Take a double-handful of corn, boil it till done,
I then put it info a vessel holding about three gallons
which fill with warm water; sweeten with
ino'.nsses, and let atmul for a day or two. It may
be flavored with ginger, sassafras or nny other
flavor, by making' a strong tea and adding it ?
After the first, cold water may be used, sweetening
ns before. Ono boiling of corn will last for
a mouth or two.
KOIt niK SOUTHERN ENTERPRISE.
Visit to Washington via Richmond.?
continue a.
Richmond is prospering, and now numbers 60
thousand inhabitants. Its progress has been rapid
in the last twenty years. It is the great
centre of the tobacco trade of the United States.
It. has the largest flouring mill perhaps in the
world. It has long been famous for its mills,
and has now manufactories of various kinds, not
the least is the Iron business. Hie .lames River
affords wi tor power almost unlimited. It still
tlows in its beauty and .grandeur as in tbc days
of l'ocaliontas; its "fulls, dotted with beautiful
islands, their "bright creation," still unsoiledby
the hands of men. Richmond is a beautiful city.
The famous Shocoo Hill is covered with
streets and beautiful houses, and its Main Street,
on the slope near tbc river, lias magnificent
i-tore*, hotels and banking bouses. It abounds
!u fine chnrcli buildings. The Raptistinterest, I
i believe, is predominant in the city. The cnpitol j
y.Muiro is on uneven ground, beautifully laid out in |
I tre.'? grass. In the controls the Stale House,
j n bullt'o^ constrnetcd in ?I?e latter part ?>f the
Inst centntj , ,'ftera model furnished by Jefferson|
It is not n very elegant building, compared
' with ninny other c.' 'tols, bnt is good enough,
! sml much better befUtiuJ republican chnrneter
of the State than the million State
House in the course of construe *?n *n South
Carolina, which, when hnilt, I bogle..'*** 8nywill
be one of the most massive and complete
monuments of State folly and extravagance 'n
the United States, perhaps in the world, demand- i
ing, for all time to come, a burdensome tnxntion
to pay the annual Interest on its costs. Just '
think of it! One linlf our State taxes are to be
j taken every year to pay interest on the huge
I pile of granite in Columbia, for a house for our
I extravagant members to occupy three weeks in
the year! That building ought to be stopped in
its progress, till times hereafter afford means for
its gradual finish. The burden should not all be
thrown on this generation. The people should
sustain no man who goes for npplyiug any more '
money to that object at this time. The mate- ;
j rials are not perishable, nnd can wait forty years j
, to oe nmsneu.
The famous Iloudon Statue of Washington,
I made nndef the direction of the Virginia nssem- .
j bly in 1788, when the hero vmi 6f? year* old, ;
j stands in the Center of the State Ilonse, surround- |
| ed by an iron palisade elevated on a pede?tnl 6 j
or 8 feet. high. It is the only just representation '
I of the figure and face of Washington to he seen, I
| except its eopy in the old Hall of Representative;" '
i at Washington City. The pictures and engrav j
j ings tlnit.,we commonly see of Washington, utter- i
I ly fail to give the fine expression of his features, !
| especially 'about the mouth. His statue, wlileh is ;
an exact mould of firs person, taken after the j
! old method, shows him to be the truly majestic .
I and noble specimen of form and feature, unsnf- J
| passed, perhaps unrivalled, hy mortal man, in :
! expressing trne greatness, force and dignity of
I clinraeter. On beholding hisfaciiinile in marble,
I one does not wonder at the sajing. handed
| down to us, that no man could approach Wash{
iegton with levity and familiarity, and that Ids
pres<*nee always inspired an awe and respect incompatible
with such irreverent feelings. Lord
Byron's description of the Apollo Belvidere, with
the change of a word, would apply to the statue
of Washington; not "beautiful disdain," but
beautiful seiwn'Vy, majesty and might, flash their
full lighting* " from his countenance. In one of
the nigt)*s stands a fine bust of Lafayette, expressive
of his benevolent and enthusiastie character,
hut it it the- face and head of a crri-al follower,
but not the leader of a revolution and
founder of an empire like thnt of Washington.
Virginia has been slow to ornament her eapitol
with the busts and paintings of her great men.
The other niches are unoeenpied still. In the
State library, there iej9.fne picture of John Randolph.
and an indifferent one of Judge Marshal.
A superior portrait of him may be neen in the
city hall. There i? a magnificent brontts crjuestrian
statue of Washington in the capitol sqtmre.
It is colossal, and has a grand and impoaing effect.
On the )>aae of the pillow on which thin atatuc
la elevated, ore two fine etntnes, one of Jefferaon,
the other of Patrick Ilenry. Both said to l?e
.very good likciieeeea Jeffeison would be readh

But now, Richmond, with its numerous and nitmentioned
attraction^ its enliglitoncd, social,

left. On Wednesday morning. May 1JA, the
great tuas? of delegate* to the Convention departed,

with souie Greenville friend* among them. Wo
left Richmond about six in the morning, taking
the railroad for A-pita Creek on the Potomac
River. "The slashes of llaoover," as fur a* we
eutita see on the rattroad, are not very fertile.----The
country is very level, and affords one in

by Mount Vernon without the usual ringing
of the stcombout bell. The passengers being
at dinner, all to whom Mount Vernon was n

house peering through the trees on the distant
bank of the river.
We reached Washington about 2 o'clock. The

of work on this inoiftltnent,, but it is soon to
be resumed and earried up to 600 feet, according
to the plan. It. will be a sublime structure
when finished, and contain blocks of stone and
marble from every Stutc in America, and from
several foreign States, besides blocks contributed
by numerous societies, institutions?literary, benevolent
and mechanical?most beautifully sculptured
and lettered, according to the devices of

The enpitol, with its new extension, when completed,
will be, perhaps, the finest building in
the world. The hnll of the Senate and of the
llouae of Itopresontatives arc both complete, and
many of the committee and other rooms and passages.
It seemed to nic nothing in the way of
nrehiteetuml richness, elcgnuce and beauty can
exceed the inner glories of the building, glittering
in the eye and imagination like n vision of
Solomon's temple, as beautiful as marble ami
beaten gold nnd fresco painting can make it.
The capital, I was told hy on intelligent friend
resident at Washington, occupies about five
acres of ground. Whilst looking through a main

The lamented Downing had something
to do in their arrangement, as well as in laying

A neai little monument is erected to him in pnrt

in hi* office alone, we were gratified with a brief
and interesting conversation with thin dirtin

tho writer lms dwelt with so much pleasure, upou
the fact, tliat St hu insensibly led him into tho
following speculation: In tracing the power
of example in nil matter* pertaining to ha hit* of
personal tidiness, It i* not difficult to imagine
tlint the moral character Is often much infiuenc
ed by it. Thi* might be deduced from otir own
pereonnt feeling* of uneasiness when thrown into
the company of other* who arc remarkably
nice in their habits, if we ourselves he not equally
so. Wo habitually and Instinctively associate
in our mind*, a degree of refinement in the feefings
and moral perceptions corresponding with
the external appearance of the individual in thi*
particular; and, although we may occasionally
err in our judgments upon such occasions, we
still have till* advantage, that our respect Is always
engaged on the right tide, and our good
nature improved by dwelling npon the evidence,
though the faet may not in nil cases be proved
by it.
But so convinced is the writer of the moral
and intellectual advantages of attention to the
teeth and nails by both sexes, that he will venture
to suggest that this form a stipulation in all
marriage contract*, to he stated thus : " And we.
the contracting turtles, do further mutually covenant,
promise and agree, to and with each other,
in consideration of the premises aforesaid, Ac.,
Ac.," (the lawyers will supply the rest,) and he
will venture to nffirin that this contract, if properly
enforced, will greatly magnify connubial
felicity. It vonjj correct ninny linbits of the
men that are calculated trt tarnish the tectb and
impair the breath, and in some parts of our
country, at least, would convince the ladies that
no female complexion can be improved, nor her
teeth much more engaging, nor her ambrosial
breath more aromatic, by chewing tobacco, nor
hy filling lite mouth with snuff, and stirring it
about with a stick.
At any rate, as every valid contract must have
its inducement or " quod mm* not quid come.

Prof. Blaokie's Opinion of Modern Greek
The discussion of the question as to the tdeuti
ty of the ancient and modern Creek in this
country, has called forth a letter on (Ids subject
from the distinguished Professor of Greek, in the
Kdinburgti University, John Stuart Blackte.?
"This gentleman," says the Boston Courier, "is
known to the literary world by his vaiious and
learned contribution# to the leading periodical#
of Orent Britain, and by hi# admirable translation
of vEschylus into rlnglish verse, lie is a
man whose opinion is one of th? highest author,
ilie# on any matter pertaining to lihcrul education.
He is a poet and prose writer of great elegance,
and we may add, In referenoc to the par
ticubir subject now in hand, he lias visited
Orceee, and has personal knowledge of the benefits
to be derived from an acquaintai.ee with the
living tongue of the Hellenic people."
Prof. Btnckie, in his answer to the question,
" whether modern Creek ought not to receive
some special patronage and distinct recognition
from the British Univer#ity," says:
"We have no longer tho old objection to con
tend with. the modern Greek is a new language
?not Greek at all, in fart, any more than Italian,
French, Portuguese and Spanish are Latin.
Thia objection, raised by pedantry and supported
by ignorance, can no longer be brought forward
with any plausibility. now that Trieonpi'a
Claaaica) History of the <>reek Revolution, com
posed in the living language of the Greeks, has
been for several years before the British public."
Among the reasons urged by Prof. Blackie for
th? t^ndy of the modern Greek, are the following,
w?'t<,h ^cnr directly upon the question of
Bildicnl tra^elt-'to "rquainilng themselves with
tha language oi" th" New Teutnmcut as it is now
spoken.
8. Specially, it introdini?* tba student of christian
theology, hy the most natural and easy door,
into the lire and spirit of the Orei?r chnrch,
which hangs together by the closest lionds with
the early Christ ian cliureh; (all Cbrtetu n
churches, in fact, were originally Greek;) and
brings the modern Protestant into a sympathetic
connection with the most important theology of
the ante Lutheran ages of Christianity.
7. Hut the grand argument in furor of the
study of modern Greek, aud which ought U> be
alike irresistible n clerical Oxford and in religious
Kdinburgh, is, that thu peculiar variety of
Hellenic epeech it the true and most direct key to
I the peculiarity? of the A'iw Tretatnenl dialect.?
j That our theologians are not fullv or at all tv>?
| of this fact, 1 nuii>t in charby suppose; otherwise
I their neglect of the living Greek dialect is not
excisable. For mys?lf, I can only state it us a
mutter of feet, that it was occupation with modern
Greek urwspnpcra, liturgies and sermons,
that first opened mv eyes to the peculiar character
of the New Testament style ; and/ attribute
any accurate kuoteiedge i'tal / have of the phiMot/y
of the Hatred volume, to toy rjtee'al etudy oj
fotiern Greek, and to no other eauee. A he New
Testament language is modern Greek ir. th l>ud
; the modern Greek is the style of the New
Testament in blossom."

wisdom of the Bible Union in sendiug I'rof.
