Tlio temperance meeting and pic nic f came < fl on Tuesday last, nnd although not ' quite so largely attended, perhaps, as was i \ , expected ami hoped, the* friends of Temper | ' i a tier*, at least all who cvrircssi'il ih..?n?il.?i?nt? I' j in our hearing, went away well satisfied j ' ! with the pioecedings of tlie occasion. The | ! energetic committee of niiangenienls had i . j ti11o? 1 up a splendid stain!, in a iovelv grove,;1 ; a??l surrounded it with a larg.? number of j' . . M i well arranged temporary scats, witii a view I \ to the comfort Mid convenience of all who might conn*; ami the good ladies of the village and country had loaded the numerous tables wish an abundance of substantiate and delicacies to still further promote comfort and good feeling. Just here we have a word to snv <-f this | same eoinnii'tco. It was composed, tor the I ii11ist n.'n t wo ? '' ' ' 1 ' , ?, m-uui nii-ii 111:1 K Hi no pretentions to what we uiu!< lMatid as ti-nipi'iaii.*c p;iiii-iplt-.u ? wiinrt even avow- ' filly tret mm?mill their kh?d and valuable a^istnuce in tin* premises was therefore the more highly appreciated l?y us of tin* colli water kidney. Such treatment from an enemy. (if we may <nsav.) whilst it is thy mo-t potent shield an 1 elf-eiivti weapon lie roidd ' interpose to o'ir a<?:mlM itpmi his p'i:i<*iples. is, at tie* sain-' time, a pleading indication thsit he i.s willing to "come ami reason" wish ir.. Let us, teuiperanee m -n, n num- ' her it, ami reason wish him as a brother. The i-pealicts present, in the onler in which they addressed tin* assemblage, wore! Rev. Dr. E. E. Pivsly, who delivered a 'c i-jipit:.l cxtvmpnr:in"<UH speech of about forty minutes' length; Rev. \V. A. M?-f?wa:n, whose well-considered and most excellent t address delighted the audience for one hour ( or longer. These came in I ho fore-noon, siller which dinner wan attended to, during j si r? i-ess of one honr. In the afternoon Rev. II. T.Sloan made :? brief r lV-haii.l hut pointed and spirited appeal in behalf of the good ' cause; and Rev. McSwain closed Ihedav's t exercises by another capital speech, the object of which was to prove, from the Bible, I he truth of our position in reference to the selling and drinking of intoxicating drinks. t A - niter ingnt an audienceof villagers, and those- t*rrving, assembled in lite Court house w * 0 and were entertained by an elaborate and masterly argument showing that the Temper- ' ance movement is a legitimate offspring and ally of the Church, nttd as such ought lo receive the fostering care of every relijjn ious man. It was, wo repeat, a masterly . *11 argument?and we would that it could ^ reach the ears of every individual in the . country of that class who object to Temperance societies on the assumption that the Church is the only proper one. A hearty and unanimous vote of thanks to the ladies for the dinner prepared, to the ^ ucnilemen outside (he Division for their I.:., i ? * * - ? - - miui HM?isiniict\ to t l?ti UoUe.-bury band for | j the excellent music they enlivened us with, atul to the speakers f-jr (lie able advocacy 1 of our cause, was given, to which Mr. Mc- ' Swain responded in a strain of admirable ji wit and grace. And tit us the day ended, greatly pleasing, we arc Hire, to almost cvery one present. Letters from several well knowii^letnper- | ancc speakers, giving excuses for absence, were read, we omitted to say in tlie proper place, in the morning, by lie v. Mr. Johnson, J of the committee of invitation. Wo have ? selected a few of these for publication, which, in conjunction with the resolution* passed ( at tlio close of the 'lav, shall appear ilex* week. We find it impracticable to insert a more in this is<uo. n South Carolina College. The policy of continuing the present anmini appropriation of from ?25,000 to r $40,000 to tlio South Carolina College is '' / c exciting considerable attention and discushion in several portions of the State. The F candidates tor the Legislature, in some of c the Districts, have been interrogated as to their views on the subject, and the most of * tin-in so interrogated have expressed them- t selves as opposed to I he present policy. Some t will not vote any further appropriation, of any size, whilst others are for cutting oft" the supplies as Jack did the monkey's tail? by degrees?a piece at a time. I n Tliia opposition to llic present large, L not to Ray extravagant, appropriations is t! construed or misrepresented by '.hose of a ii different faith into hostility to the College t: itself?a desire for its total overthrow. As one belonging to the lioet of uncompromiB- n ing opponents to the present policy of ap- u propriatione, we prptest against' such con- s struction or misrepresentation. Whilst we tl unhesitatingly reiterate our declaration of e decided opposition to the appropriations as ii how toado, we emphatically deny the least b d&ire for the overthrow of the College, tl True we My this much: If the College g oannet lire without being fed onee every ti year upon a meal of from $25,000 to $40,300, from tin; Slate treasury, it is no sacri lego tu say let il die / And if this be hostility to it, then are we hostile. T?ut we believe it could live, ami would live successfully, if not upon its own resources, at least upon a much more economical system of State ai?l. It seems to us that an institution, of fifty years standing, supplied with all the necessary buildings, libraries, apparatus, tfce., having its full measure of fame already acquired, and having two or three hundred students, all ahunhuitly able to pay the very highest rates of tuition, in attendance, ought to be scif-sus itf i ... .amiug. vv nv siioiilil it not be? If it is ivoitli sustaining l.y the Stale, why should t not bo worth sustaining by those who put onizu it and arc the recipients of the advantages which it confers ? Is the cdticn:ion derived by the individual giaduate? >r by the aggregate graduates? of the Eolith Carolina College, worth the money Ahich it costs ? If it i?, then the one* who receives the born fit is the proper one to pay i>r it. It i: i-- not. then the State is netto.; in !?-? ! faith to its citizen* in paying nil the public inoUt V for that which is in>t in enuivah-nt. We know the idea is that, ahhonph coinlaralively few of ihe people ih-iive the di ect ntlvantages of tilt? Collc;j<*, Vet tltl lasses experience indiiect bcii> fits, and lence tin; policy of forcing .-ill to coutiihitte o its support is warranted. This is good lortriuc, but it will apply further. If, in -onsidcratiou of tho benefits to a eoniiiMilitv from a giaduate of tin* South Carolina .Viil.-^o being in its mi?7vt as an active and isi'ftil citizen, ail <l;is?< s of tlial community nay be justly t;omp> lied to aid in paying r?r his education, we cau see no reason vhv auv otlur Col!c?jy in the State should lot receive tin? same credit and snppoit for fx activo mill IWi'flll ?rr.i.1 ..... t,. . 1MII 111'1 5t:ite should not undertake the work f-t' nstaining all the Colleges within her borlers. Such a policy once began, ami we hould soon have nothing bat Colleges. Academies ai>fl schools woiihl he terms obo'ete, ami stricken from the vocabulary. Su? still if o ne College is to bo rewarded nd sustained by all classes, thr?tin.nib'.io treasury, in consideration of ih<lireet advantages to a few and the iti*1 0 the many which it confers, we ho!.I it o he no more than just to reward everv | ithor in the State, fur the same services pre-1 isely in proportion to the amount of ervicCH rendered. j When the South Carolina Cwllerre *vj?s ! stablUhcd there was no other in the State, nu! it was a wise ami patriotic work of the ^egi>lature. It was eminently jn-t thai vety citizen of tiie Slate should eontribtito o its support. And now, as it was the ii?. i md is still, in a certain sense, tlie people's i nstitution, for tlie good it has done, an<! j ur fenr it might go down if left at oney to' Is own resource*, we would by no means j ounsel an immediate and total withdrawal j if State aid; but let the expenses of the} College be reilueed to the lowest possible'joint compatible with its entire Fiiceess. and ' hen let the State make provision lbrwjw?t-l ver deficiency there may be after Iliu C<?1-! fge's own resources are exhausted. We an not believe that, if the expenses were so egnlated, and its own income from tuition roperly applied, there would be a necessity or more than half the amount, which is low annually taken from the Stain treasury, iut if, we repeat, an average appropriation if $25,000 or $30,000 a year is really the i-ast that will do. let tlx; College go; in! licse days of multi|>'-iud facilities of flu- j ation, co&ting (lie State nothing, yet nccvs- j ible to cvi-iy ela's of her citizens, it is "pav | iij? a Utile too much for tlit* whistle." . *. . !

[ron THE IN!>EPI?MDCNT TRESS.] fPU- ** ? - iui an ui xjreaa-maKtllg. The philosophy'or chemistry of bread-! linking is very little understood by iho ba;er or the house cook ; nnd still, it being lie staff of life, many fall daily victims uf ndigestions and disease, without knowing ho cause. Let us investigate it in a popular manier. The grain or corn of which bread is iltimately made, consists mostly of three ubstanees, starch, gluten and sugar. After he grain is ground into flour, to render it nsnv uigenieu, it must t>e RepArattd by fliftng from its ligneous husk or tlie course rand ; but not so much so as to remove tie more minute shorts, to which much luten adheres, and which is the most nuritiouft, Weil the gluten eontaio* the | uitrogeuized element of the grain. The glu i ten being lonelier an J more difficult ti I grind and separate from the brand than tin I starch ; therefore, the finest and whiles I flour, obtained by repeated bolting, contain ! a larger proportion of starch, hut, of course 1 less f'lutcn. So that the whitest flour is no j the most nutritious, or the most easily di I gested, or the healthiest ; it is exactly th !
