Flag Presentation.

At the recent presentation OF u llag, IN
Charleston, to Col. Pettigrew's regiment, We
find the following interesting addresses. That
of Governor Pickens is important, as it dis
closes the true and difficult position Of the
Governor at this critical time. 1t should be
copied extensively:
Governor Pickens then advanced, and was
greeted with cheer upon cheer, and when the
enthusiastic applause had somewhat subsided,
the Governor spoke as follows:
SOLDIERS: cou'd not refrain from saying
to you, on this occasion, that in the name of
South Carolina, l return YOU my sincere
thanks for the very gallant and brave lnanner
in which you have executed every order that
has beon addressed to your very gallant
Colonel.

as 10 individual men. 1t is we'll known that
s4 had to encounter many difficulties, and .
great deal Of confusion, and assure you that
never, on any occasion in my life, met with
more gallant, more prompt, and more soldier
like conduct than has been exhibited by every
part of this regiment called into service.
I have often, in late years, seen large bodies
of well drilled aud well disciplined troops. l
have seen between forty thousand and eighty
thousand men pass in review, and can truth
fully and sincerely say, that I have never seen
any body of more soldier-like appearance, or
with moro thorough discipline than these
brave, free and independent soldiers upon
(which South Carolina relies in this, her day
of trial.
Iremember when the sudden move WAS
made from Fort Moultrie to Fort Sumter, un.
der very peculiar and exciting circumstances,
i Immediately asked who could rely upon;
where could get u man to execute orders
that might be full of perils ard dangers?
Your gallant Colonel WAS Immediately point
ed out to me by acclammation, as the man
fitted for the occasion. I shall never forget
that morning. 1 called him to me, and said;
Colonel, want two hundred picked men
for perilous undertaking" 1t was then said
there was danger, for these forts were said to
be mined, which might be sprung at any mo-
uent, and lhatthey were full Of danger. lasked
him: "Arc you ready?' He WAS off before
j could hardly give another direction, instant

cupicd tie van Of States in this march to inde.
pendeuce, and we had to encounter, OF COURSE,
great difficulty and great censure but, under
all these trying circumstances, ! have never
made an appeal to the patriotism or spirit of
the country that has not been cheerfully re-
sponded to. And / now take occasion to say,
that although South Carolina askS no fsvors,
nor seeks to avoid any responsibility, yet, a'
fur as am concerned, neither the internal
pressure arising from over.heated zeal or en-
thusiastic patriotism on the one side, nor
bullying threats nor denunci"tions from

path Of independence and duty to my coun-
try. While | shall endOavor to avoid both
extremes, trust shall be able to do what is
right, without regard to consequences.
Here is South Carolina on this day, repre-
sented by as brave and gallant men as ever
shed their blood upon the gallant buttle.helds
of the past. There she is, (pointins to the
arms on the aag,) thank God, waving in the
view of the brave soldiery, and il it should
ever ba unfolded on the perilous ridge of bot.
lie, the swords of the brave around it will
fash and CLEAN as high as they ever did in
our brightest days of glory. There South
Carolina stands on the outer battlements of
our country's defence, encased in mail aFmor,
With her lance couched aud not feather
quivcring in her plume. Whatever may come,
l trust we will meet the consequences, not aa
hired soldiery, but as freemen and as an in
dependent sodiery as the representatives of
the country, and of the peace and freedom Of
our institutions, which, trust, will ever be
maintained under all circumstances and at
every hazard.

WHAT Is "CRuEl TREATMENT TO Wlpr?n
In late case at the Macon term, the Su-
prerne Court had before it the question of the
F., obstruction of the words "cruel treatment"
AS applied in our divor ce laws to the con luct
of the husband toward the wife. 1t made q
decision which is an homer to itself and
tribute to the civilization Of the age. The
Court held that personal uiolence was not ne
cessary to constitute cruel treatment, but that
the cruel treatment must be considered by
the jury, and it was the province of the jury
to determine whether under the circumstan.
ces of tho case total or partial divorce
should be granted.
Ii the Supreme Court of Georgia had no
other claim to the public respect and graft.
tude, this decision alone should endear it to
the hearts of every honest family in the land.

Let us nllbc Friends.

No sort Of quarrcli 6 pays. 1t is always
more profitable to have the good opinion o.!
Il mau than to count him an eremy. The
humblest man has some influence, and it is
b.t:er TO Lave that on our side than against
us-he MIGHT have friends or relations whose
suol word mi ght one day be useful. Or, if
he is such perfect outsider, as to have nci-
thcr friends re ativcs, or influence, it seems
like a small business to quarrel with such Il
forlorn individual Amiabilily is so surely a
virtue that man instinctivcly admircs its for
tunate poSscssor, and when lie comes in con-
tact with cross. grained, qnarre'some ind,
yidual, his good nature shines more brightly
by reason OF the contrast.
We may safely promise largely increased
cnoymen; to him, who becomes reconciled to
an old foe. 1t is not wise to nurse 4 quarrel
and keep it warm BY brooding over real or
imaginary injuries. And the road to peace
is very plain and str;.ight; if We have been
hasty or unkind, or inconsidera;e, there is
nothing 80 manly and honorable as 4 prompt
acknowIe lgcment of our fault or folly, and
none but u brute will refuse proiitred recon-
ciution. On the other hand, il we have
injured, let lis remember that we also nced
grace to ask that pardon, and we will find it
hard to withhold that forgiveness
