itself the Legislature, has resolved to
improve the Gnauces of the State, re.
duce the debt,, the expenses, and the
nGmber ST ofice.holders Of that State
in short, to begin reform which
shall at once make South Carolina
great, aloriolis and wealthy. AS the
moa'bers plaitn to represent the pros
perty, owners, ahd. as they, complain
that property 10 without representa-
tion in the State, We are puzzled to
guess how the revolution is to be
brought about. The Convention is
said to have becp, very temperate in
its discussions. We should be glad if
there were, some legitimate authority
pure enough and wise enough to give
f"rce TO it's resolutions.--New Yoyh

Flowers.

Those who are fond Of cultiyating
flowers in the house will fnd great
benefit 10 the plants by spreading a
coating Of moss over tho earth in their
flower pots. This keeps the water
from cvaporating, and the tempera
turo more uniform. Tea grounds
says an exchange, are often used for
the same purpose. Where flower
pot sets in a saucer, with hole in the
bottom OF the pot, put little sand il
the saucer, and cover it with moss
