COMMON BEVERAGE OF FSCRIPTURE.-The

water. This was the drink provided by a
God of love for our first parents in Eden
When Abraham sent away Hagar, he gave
her bottle of water. When Rebecca re-
ceived the offer of marriage, she gave to
Abraham servant water. The angel that
came to Hagar, in the wilderness, pointed
her to place of water. Gideon's three hun
dred valiant soldiers drank water. Samson
and his mother drank water. kipg Saul in
the cave drank water. At Nabal's feast OF
sheep shearing, the beverage provided was
water. Elijah, when fed by ravens, drank
water and when he came to the widow of

A YANKEE ANECDOTE.

DR.. Patton, very excentric clergyman,
was travelling in England. He met Eel.
low of one of the Colleges, who was anxieus
to make an enquiry of the Doctor, provided
he would give no offence. The Doctor told
him to "out with it," as he guessed it would
not hurt much.
Fellon--'Frhe inquiry is this DO you
think that your present form of government
will stand, or that your people will not soon
require king?"
"Dr. P-"Well, sir, that this is indeed
q question that does not fall in with my pre-
dilections, for am thorough Republican.
Still, have no objections to answer your
question frankly. 1t is my opinion, to which
l have come after much reflection, that we
shall eventually have a king"
Felow.-"I am sure of it-I am sure of
it!-but have never yet seen an American
who was willing to admit it. Will you favor
me with the reasons on which you found
your opinion ? for have no doubt they are
good ones"
DIR. P.-"I think they are good ones, and
will frankly state them to you. They are
these: l read in the Bible that when Israel
was virtuous people, God governed them
generally with judges of their own choosing !;
but when they became corrupt and degra-
graded people, God IN soroth gaze them a
King. As we are rapidly importing Europe
an manners, and corrupt customs into the U.
States, greatly fear that We shall degener-
ate until God will treat US as he has the de-
graded nations of Europe, and give US
king"
The Fellow grew suddenly red in the
face, and would have fought, but the laugh
of his neighbors was so hearty, that he had
to join in it, and soon he managed to say,
nWell, you have taught me one lesson to-
day that shall never forget"
DR.. P-"And, pray, what may that be ?
for it is very rarely that an Englishman
will admit that he learns any thing from an
American"
Fsjlou.--"I have learned to let the Yam
KEGS alone, and not medlle with their pecu-
liar matters.
DR.. P-"Thank you, sir. But allow me
to say that you are rather slow scholars, for
We certainly taught you that lesson at Bunk
er Hill"
Fe1low.-"I see that you are incorrigi'
ble."
DR.. P-"And that's the way with your
people"

AMUSING ANCDoTE.- Webster
had an anecdote of old Father Searl, the
minister of his boyhood, which is too good
to be lost. 1t was customary then to wear
buck.skin breeches in cold weather. One
Sunday. morning in the autumn, Father
Searl brought his breeches down from the
garret; but the wasps had taken possession
during the summer, and were having nice
time of it in them. By dilt of effort he got
out the iutruders and dressed for meeting.
But while reading the Scriptures to the con-
gregation, he felt dagger from one of the
euraged small-waisted fellows, and jumped
around thepulpit, slapping his thighs. But
the more be slapped and danced the more
they stung. The people thought him crazy.
but he explained the matter by saying,
"Brethrea, don't he alarmed; the acord Of
the Lord is in n,y mouth, bm the derH as IN
my Jreechrs :" Webster always told it with
great glee to the ministers.

THE SOUTH CAROLINA
SON OF TEMPERANCE.

TT isproposed to publish new Weekly Paper, al
Bennettsville, Marlboro, DISTRICT s. o., a.
early this fall as arrangements Gun be made to 49,
sue it-ani few hundred subscribers con be oh
tained to start with.
The main leading object OF the paper will be to
advance the cause of Temperance, and especially
to build up the Order of the Sons of Temperance,
believing this to be the organization at present
that embraces the entire State in the scope OF its
operations and fur more systematic efficient and
powerful than any other human instrumentahty
that has yet been devised for the accomplishment
of what all similar associations propose-the re-
formation of drunkards, the suppression OF lntem-
perance, and the systematic training OF the rising
generation in habits cf strict sobriety.
To indicate unmistakably. the purpose of this
paper, it will be called "The South Carolina Son
Of Temperance"
The offices of the NJ w. P. of the Sons Of Tenn
perance of North America, and the Grand Scribe
of the G. D. of S. c., located at presen: where
this paper is to be issued, besides being in COIN
munity Of strong, leading, intelligent, active, well
informed Sons of Temperance, extraordinary ia
cilities will be enjoyed for rendering the paper all
that the Order could desire. Its main leading
purpose will be to deserve and to secure the gen.
erai support of the Order in South Carolina; but
it will also embrace news OF interest ana lmpor-
tancc to the Order generally, and to all Temper
ance organizations.
Subscriptions are therefore solicited from Sons
of Temperance, in our jurisdictions and from other
Temperance Associations and individuals, and
from all who wish the cause well.
As this is to be the only newspaper published
In the District and as it will probably be taken
by many in the peighborhood, for the local in
tcrest it may possess,--visitipg. it may be, the
humble abodes of some, unable to Take oth5r pa
pers, it is deemed advisable to accommodate and to
secure this home patronage, BY devoting small
but judiciously filled space to local news and to
the general news Of the day
The necessary capital to start this enterprise
having been contributed in advance, and oil the
necessary arrangements having been deliberately
made with reference to stability, and good faith,
all who may feel inclined to favor the undertaking
may confidently subscribe, and remit advance
payments, assured that there will be no disap-
pointment.
The paper will be of medium size, well printed
indeed, the entire office management will have
tie benefit of experienced printers and new and
superior materials.
TERMS'-Two Dollars, in adyanes.
