South Carolina and Virginia.

--That competent artist, Mr. A Grineyald, has left at our office a banner which he painted some months ago, intended for a Virginia military company, and which is very appropriate for the present time. It is a union of South Carolina and Virginia. A large Palmetto occupies the centre, on the right of which South Carolina is represented with the great staple, cotton; on the left is Virginia, with her great staple, tobacco. Virginia is represented treading on Lincoln, while a rattlesnake which is coiled round the Palmetto is shaking his rattles in the despot's face. --Charleston Mercury.
