Deputy Grand Worthy Patriarchs.

It will be seen by reference to the Proceed
ings of the Grand Division, that it has adop-
ted an entire remodeling of this class of of
ficers in our Order. All commissions issued
before this meeting of the Grand Division,
are declared null and void, and Divisions are
required to make immediate application to
the G. W. Prev. A. w. Cummings, Ashe-
vile, N. C.)-for new Commissions, accom-
panied by the instructions and requirements
just adopted. We hope this will be prompt
ly and faithfully attended to-.
1t will be seen that two classes Of D. G.
w. P.'s are to be appointed-one known as
District D. G. w. g." who shall have SUI
perVision of all the Divisions in the county or
district, and keep the G. W. P. advised of
the workings Of the Order in his jurisdiction
as well as to labor both in and out of the
Order, for the promotion of the cause of TEN
perance.
The Local Deputies are to have super
vision of the Divisions to which they are
appointed, and are to be subordinate to the
District Deputies. (See Instructions and Di-
~rections to Deputies on first page of this pa
PERI
There can be no doubt but that the Office
Of ID. G. W. P. is a very important one, and
; if faithfully attended to, is bound to contri-
butte greatly to the advancement of the Or.
der. Blu it is Of paramount consequence,
that those holding this trust should be fully
alive to their responsibilities, and should
t discharge their duties with fidelity and zeal
Under the new arrangement it is expected
this end will be gained. All Deputies Com.
missions are to be received immediately from
the g.. w. P, alone-and those appointed
, will be held to a strict performance of their
duties, and regular and faithful quarterly re-
? ports to the G. w. P. The Returns and
9 Dues, however, are still to be forwarded to
the Grand Scribe at Raleigh.
Divisions will recommend the names O
0 Brothers for Deputies as soon as possible

For the Spirit of the Age.
Thanksgiving Day

Has come and gone with its pleasures,
%frolics, bounteous dinners, home-gatherings
and all. The little ones stood with eyes wide
open, gazing with establishment on the loads
of precious things in preparation for the
browning point, the great dinner! they all
sat still in church, only once in a while a
great smile would break over their counte-
nances as they thought of what was to come.
And when it did come, what shouting,
clapping of hands and caperings.: who did
not enjoy it, although it was a promiscuouS
gathering in the old, old hall, with its .oaken
pannels and great windows. All around were
seated grandfathers and grandmothers, un-
Giles, aunts, cousins and even distant relations,
with pleasure beaming on their faces, as huge
turkeys and all kinds Of poultry, meat, veg
ables, and most delicious viands were sacri-
feed to the d%evouring appetite of man.
And then, the long evening! when strange
and wondrouS tales were rehearSed, plans for
the future laid out, and the memories of those
who were sleeping in the dust, brought back,
and each one added some kind memory of
them. There were many, who met in these
halls last year, who arespending their thanks
giving in Heaven and many, who have Just
commenced their journey through life, are
here. We always meet in the old ancestral
hall, and a joyous meeting it is! for we all
come, no matter where we be, north, south,
east or west. The old folks smile quietly as
they sit III the comfortable arm chair, and look
upon the children of three generations.
10 we love to cluster around them, and
listen to some story Of the revolution, or of
their young days we treasure them in our
hearts as sacred memories, for we know they
will not long be with US, to while away the
pleasant evenings, for most Of them stay till
the holidays are over, before they go to their
distant homes. We young people have fine
times, horseback riding, ~swingingin the oak
grove or taking walks during the moonlight
evenings, through the intricate walks, Oh
wandering by the bank Of a murmurine
streamlet. We all look forward to this sea
son Of the year with joyful anticipations.-
Thanksgiving Day will always be a pleasur,
to the jewellers of the United States, and W,
hope they will remember for what: that da,
was appointed. SUSIE.

The Department Reports.

Mr.. Secretary Cobb asks for seventy-three
and a quarter million next year, including
fifteen and a half millions for the army, thir-
teen and half millions for the navy, and
two millions one hundred thousand for ordi-
nance and Notifications.
Mr.. Toucey recommends increase of officers
in the Navy in all classes, and the purchase
of all vessels lately chartered for the Paragua
expedition, consisting of ten light draught
steamers.
Mr.. Secretary Floyd believes the Naviio
Camanche War, just commenced, to be fierce
and bloody, but thinks it should be vigorous
ly prosecuted. He recommends but four new
Notifications at exposed points. His esti-
mates for the next year are three millions
less than the expenditures Of last year.
Mr.. Secretary Brown recommends thatthe
ranking privilege in Congress should be
abolished and the issue Of suitable stamps
substituted. He deprecates the transmission
of heavy matter in the mail, and recommends
a uniform rate Of postage at five cents per
single letter, and fayors a line of mail steam
ers between San Francisco and Japan, or
China. He estimates the expenditures of
the next fiscal year at fourteen and three
quarters millions, with receipts of upward of
eleven millions.
Mr.. Secretary Thompson, reports a revenue
last year from the Public Lands of upwards
OF two millions, and recommends govern
nent to retain all lands containing precious
metals, and the selling of all containing baser
kinds. He advocates the extension of the
presumption Jaws oyer Utah.

Grand Division of South Carolina.

The Grand Division of the Sons of Temper
ance met IN annual Session at Columbia. on
the oath ultimo, From the s. G.. Son of Ten
p6rdnce OF the End instant, we take the FOL
lowing summary Of the proceedings:
Representatives were in attendance from
almost every portion of the State.
The Grand Worthy D~ttiarcn submitted
his report which was referred to q special
Committee. We see nothing in the report of
general interest, except a notice OF the organ
ization Of five new Divisions.
w. D. Cook, Esq, the worthy and efficient
Grand Scribe submitted his first report, he
says:
These returns show an increase since the
last report of the Grand Scribe, and indicate
that the Temperance cause is still marching
onward. Since our last meeting FIVE new
Divisions have been organized.
In addition to this enlargement Of our Cir
Gle, several old Divisions have had quite a
number Of accessions; but, while we rejoice
at the organization of new Divisions, and re.
vlyal among the old ones, ace, at the same
time, have to mourn at the complete downfall
of some, and the inert, l~othergical state into
which others have fallen thus lingering ont
a slow, but certain death, unless some irBps
tus be given, which will restore their wonteC
momenta.
The following persons were elected and in
stalled as officers for the ensuing year:
DR. John May, G w P; DIR W In Ans

Judge Moore and W D Cook was appointe,

The Spirit of the Age.

1t will be seen by examining the proceed
dings of the Grand Division, that steps were
taken therein, for advancing the interests of
this paper-the Organ of the Sons of Tenn
perance in North Carolina. 1t is very hui
initiating to the Editor, to be compelled to
call so frequently for aid on the part of the
friends of the cause, in order to keep the pa
per from going down The low price at
which the paper is published renders its ex-
istence at all times precarious and hence
its proprietor referred the matter to the Grand
Division, for the counsel of its members as
to the best mode of securing its permanency.
The capacity of the paper, when publish.
ed at low rates, for the accomplishment O
the greatest amount of good among the
masses of our people, was so sensibly felt
that while they pledged themselves to sus
tain it, even at a higher subscription price
yet the cheap price was deemed advisable t.
be adhered to, until earnest and active exer.
tlons were made, to greatly increase ths
number of subscribers, and thus by a larg.
list, keep the paper within the reach Of all.
In this hope and desire the Editor warmly
s~ympathises and co-operates. To do good t
oar feUoo-men, was our chief motiye in pla
cling the subscription price of the Age at S,
low a figure. Almost every one can afforc
81 for a weekly paper. We are Statistic,
with this, if sufficient number of subscri
bers is given US to support the enterprise.
Our friends and brothers of the Grand Di
vision assured us we should have them an
pledged themselves to go to work to largel
increase our list. We feel sure these pledge
will be redeemed, and that hundreds of ne,
names will soon be added to our list. WI
every member of the Grand and Subord
nate Divisions HELP ? If so, we shall soon SD
out of the woods" and enabled to go on wit
a light and cheerful heart in advancing til
great interests of our reform. Brother, re;
der, how many will you send US soon?

North Carolina Planter.

The December No. of this Agricultural Pc
riodical should have been noticed before. It
has now been published oneyear and though
it has not met with the support its Publisher
expected, yet he has determined to try it
another year, hoping the friends OF Agricul-
ture will give it at least a paying patronage.
He has issued a new Prospectus for 1859, and
sent to his subscribers, hoping that all Of
them will renew for another year and aid in
getting new subscribers. Surely all will do
this. Let all who wish a first class North
Carolina Agricultural journal send on 81 and
get the Planter for 1863. For So he will
send two copies for 1859, and two copies for
the past year-having a few left On hand.

Maternal JOYS.

An exchange pOrpetrates the following
scandal. lie ought to be tried by a Jury of
twelve young married women, who are en-
joying the prattle of their first baby:
"Ba-a.aa, ba-a-aal' shrieked a half-naked
infant, Of about eighteen months old
" What's the matter with mammals theet lit
tie duckeyy' says the affectionate mother.
while she presses it to her BOSOM, and the

Grand Division Proceedings.

We devote q very large space in this issue,
to the Proceedings of the recent session of
the Grand Division which assembled at
Greensboro on the 3oth alt. We feel that
no apology is necessary for the space occu-
pied, as the proceedings will be found of vi
tai importance to all interested in the great
cause of Temperance. Ard we hope that all
our readers will give the entire Proceedings
an attentive perusal, and the Brotherhood
especially, throughout the entire State, re-
solve to go to work anew for the good of the
Order.
AS we stated in our hurried article of last
week, the meeting was of unusual interest,
and was largely attended and we expect,
that from thence will go out an awakening
and reviVing influence, that will tend might
ly to the rejuyenating of our beloved Order
throughout the State.
There is no question in our minds about a
great revival in our Order, if we can only get
those interested and identified with it, tc
make earnest and perseyering efforts to &C.
complish it. Read carefully the plans pro-
posed and devised to give life and energy tc
our dormant faculties, and then go to worl
to carry them out-and soon the wilderness
OF intemperance will blossom with the brigh
buds of hope and promise that will give as
surance of a glorious harvest in the cause o
God and humanity. With peculiar emphasi
may we mooc, address the members Of our Or
der IN the language of the old Roman orato
Awake, arise, or be forever fallen Y
