PROCEEDINGS OF THE GRAND DIVISION
OF SOUTH CAROLINA. 49, ~ ,S'7 57

Bro Castor moved the appointment of a
Committee to submit resolutions expressive of
the loss sustained by the Grand Division, in
the death of Bro. j. R. M'Kain. Carried, and
is rs follows, which, was unanimously adopted.
Since our last meeting - Death has been in
our 'pidst, aud stricken down a beloved and
most esteemed Brother-a most worthy and
indeiatigable Officer. A bright light has been
extiuguished among us--a strong pillar has
been broken. Our Grand Treasurer, JAMEs
RoBERT MkAIN--from burning boat, on
swollen river, attempting to save q fond and
aged mother, was suddenly called away Join
the band of brethren above. The awful and
distressing death by accident was his, under
circumstances that elicit our warinest sympa-
thies. With a mind active and decisiye-with
a judgment clear and strong with feelings al
ways right t-always benevolent lively
appreciation Of the good, and utter adherence
of the evil, he filled a large sphere Of useful
ness, and was to our Order, one Of the parest
exemplars and most efficient advocates He
gave to the cause of Temperance the strong
energies of his whole nature He thoroughly
understood the principles of our Institution,
and none were more strict in their observance.
The G.. d. appreciated his worth by retaining
his active powers always in office. We feel 4
melancholy qualification in knowing that in,
the absence OF acquaintances, when no famil.
lar eye was near to tell whose mortal remains
had been recovered first learned his
name from the Travelling Gard of our Order.
His individuality of character was too well
marked-his.devotion to principle too earnest
and deep.seated, aud his estimate of the good
too high and pure not to be felt and seen in
any association. AS Treasurer of our Body,
his accounts were left in order, and were easily
adjusted. Let US cherish the elief that he was
as well prepared for that fnat accounting, where
all his treasure was. His manly form and ami.
mated countenance will no more cheer up our
meetings. His place among US will know him
no more 1t becomes US to bow in humble SUBJ
mission to that GOD, the Great Patriarch, whose
wisdom is inscrutable, and whose ways past
finding out In initiating the bright example
left US, we can only become stronger Sons of
and more useful members OF SO.

rable attention is directed towards the
State Of Georgia at the present time. on
account Of the act passed by the last ses-
sion Of the Legislature Of that State,
making it obligatory upon the Governor
to call convention Of the people Of
Georgia in case Of the admission Of Ca
lifornia OF New Mexico as State.
The Griffin Ca Jeffersonian says:
The Convention will be called il
the California bill is passed. Georgia
may not determine to 90 out Of the I'm
ion we think she will not; but sys.
TEN Of retaliatory measuresagainst the
North will be adopted, and never aban.

faith the letter and spirit of the Consti.
tuition. Discriminating laws will be
passed, affecting all goods manufacture
ed at the North, passing through North
ern ports or carried in Northern bot,
toms. This will be done at least"
Some ether newspapers in Georgis
speak in the same tone /; but the general
voice is strongly against measures o.
opposition. The Augusta Chronicle
and Sentinel speaks in unmistakeable
terms, denouncing any proposal to re-
sist or oppose the action Of Congress.
That paper publishes long and able
letter from Judge Warner, one of the
Judges of the Supreme Court Of Geor.
gia, and leader of the Locofoco party,
in reply to committee of citizens Of
Athens, asking his opinion whether the
present crisis is one presenting pro-
per occasion for measures Of resistance,
revolutionary or otherwise, ON the part
Of the slaveholding States.
He argues at considerable length to
show that matters had better remain as
they are, and that resistance would be
unwise and impolitic. a Southern
