CuEEnlNG.-Taylor Division No. 81,
Sons of Temperance, located in this
place, initiated at its last meeting,
TwENTy.oNE persons, principally young
men, being greater number than was
ever before admitted at one time into
any Division in tho State. This fact
should make its members exert them.
selves to the utmost TO maintain this pc.
sition. NUMBER 81.
~ We noticed last week, that our
Division of the S. of I. was enjoying
an unusual degree of prosperity, and
that large addition would be made to
the membership on last Saturday night,
but we did not suppose that 81 would
be initiated at that time. We arc in.
formed that 81 were applicants for ad.
mission, but that 6 of that number were
unable to attend the Division on that
night. They will be initiated at nno,h.
er time. We hope this is but tho bo.
ginning of II glorious reformation in
our place, and that its influence may
extend Throughout! tho whole country.
We hope to have reports like tho above,
showing the progress ofthe great cause,
very frequently.-Kanawha Republican.

Of hogs, and the demand for American lard
extends to the four quarters Of the Globe.

Mn. KE,Tr's ELECrioN--THE SrASDARD.-
While others are congratulating South Carolina
upon her youthful representatives i'll Congress
from the Fourth and Sixth Districts, We would
take occasion to extend the same expressions IN
regard to,the more recent election Of the Hon.
Lawrence NJ keitt, of Orangeburg. We wish
for him Il career, commensurate with his highest
aspirations In spite of the Standards croaklng
about the illiberality Of the Secession party III
the matter of his election, We believe that the
State at large will join us in our gratulations and
good wishes. by the bye, what meaneth our
brother of the Standard by holding forth the
dea that the Secessionists are the faithless'
ones who are turning the supposed rcconca
ton Of parties" in South Carolina into a de
ccitful fiction ?" Did the triumph of Messrs
Bovce and Brooks, over aged aud able men,
prove any thing of the kind? Is it absolutely
necessary that those, who were Secessonists
shall have no single representative IN either
branch of Congress, in order that "by cones
may assuredly "be by-gones!" We neither
see the good sense nor generosity of such Fo-
sition. 1t has been, our aim and desire, ever
since the compromise of our Convention, to
bring about restoration of unity in our dis
tracted State But we confess that this grasp
ing and clutchng of every high position in the
gift of the State has by no means encouraged
US in the carrying ont of this praisc-worthy OBJ
iect. And now, to have the last and only re-
manning place incur Federal representation viii.
niugy begrudged to US! 1t is iIliberal if not
arrogant. We cannot think that the Standard
would deliberately desire to offend his old oppo-
nents in this manner, and we therefore ask him
in kindness to review the whole matter from the
sea-board to the mountains. If he do not dis.
cover that. the charge of faithessness to the
Compromise of, parties lies more properly at his
own do,r and that of his followers, we have in-
deed watched the progress of our late elections
