WORM KNowING-How TO PRESERVE
PAsrE.-Every lady who keeps a scrap
book need to have little cup of flour
paste at hand. How can the paste be
preserved9 A clergy man in Connect
cut told me q few years since that after
various experiments, he tried putting the
paste into and openmouth vial or jar and
covering the surface with tincture of
camphor. This was perfectly successful.
He could at any time take out what he
wanted with little wooden spoon, with.
out pouring out the champion. Perhaps
the uncamphorated alcohol would answer
as well, but should doubt it. Ihave not
lately met with any little discovery Of this
kind, which has been of more service to
me, and many of your readers may be
glad to know of it.-Culturist.

efficacy, Barrys Tricophcrous is unrivalled The
immense cash sales of the article have enabled the
Inventor to supply it at reta at 25 cents per bot

price of any other preparation for the hair now in

COMMERCIAL TRANSCRIPT.
8, olin Tallev, Editor.

Published Daily, and Tri-,oeekly at Columbia, S. C.,
AT Four DOLLARS DAILY, and Two DOLLARS
TRr-WEEKLY, per annum, payable invariably SIX
months in advance.
The Publisher, though fully aware that the COM
mercial necessities of Columbia do not require the
assistance of another journal, is yet we'll satisfied
that the questions now agitating the State demand
more thorough and searching examination than
they have yet received. To the furtherance OF this
object will the energies Of this journal be direct
ed, in order that the people may have all the lights
before them, in deciding upon the policy to be
adopted by them in seeking for their rights, and re.
dress for their injuries and grievances.
Though they entertain no doubt about the right
of State to secede at any time, and that upon this
right depends the sovereignty of the States, and in
this the only protection of the citizen against
centralized, consolidated power; yet believing, as
they do that the exercise of this right at this crsls,
bv what is now called "immedinte seperate State
action" is hazardous remedy, if indeed reme-
dy, at all of those grievances, involving dangers
which no ken can foresee, and perhaps the blight
ing of the now cheering prospect OF Southern
Confederacy, the publisher will devote their
columns more particularly to the exposure OF those
dangers, and the ruinous consequences which viii
in ali human probability grow ont of uch action.
He will further, by all Just and honorable means
sustain the wise and prudent measures indicated
BY our State Legislature, in conformity with the
suggestions of the NASHVILLE Convention, which look
to The harmonizing of sentiment and soothing. OF
prejudices in the Southern States, that by union
among themselves, they might redress themselves
effectually, without the possibility OF lneurrinG
those evils which will certainly grow out of prema:
ture and hasty action. tits then sincerely hoped
by the publisher that the friends of cooperation,
united action, or united secession as it may be
called, throughout the State, will promptly aid
him in thit enterprise Upon them it mutt depend
for its support If, even the most violent advo-
Gates of immediate secession say, Southern Con.
federacy is ultimately inevitable In the nature of
thugs, who shall we, who believe that premature
action by this State will forever blight the nope
not rate our voices against it, and use an lawful
means in our power to preventit! t!6 Then aid rs in
