MISCELLANEOUS.
From The Nc,c York Star

MECHANICS.
The Columbus (Mississppi) Argus makes
sound reflections in commenting on an article from the
Star, relative to the importance Of mechanic profess
sions s.
Everybody is talking about the Commercial
Emancipation Of The South," and meetings and con-
yentons resolve that suffering grievously because
the North supplies MS with fine coaches, mahogany
chairs Lowell cotons, shoes, hats and everything
cesssry for comfort luxury, and that sad
y msused becausethe Northern people send their ships
to take our cotton to market Now, how are we TO
bring about this emancipation unless we brst commence
the good work by emancpatng ourselves our sons and
daughters from Incidence? We cannot--but if we
can raise among ourselves, hatters, tailors, shoe
makers blacksnths, coachnakers, charmakers print
ers shiowrphts and Sailors there will be fair chance
Of attaining 10 the desirable result OF Commercial
Emancipation" and not before, Those who talk most
about the suffering South the last to put their sons
to trade-nay they would almost disgrace themselves
in their opinion, # they gave their sons any pro-
fession at ALL by The strcat Of Thy broo ihon shall cal
bread" was the curse the Almighty pronounced against
the first man aud il is Gods will that we should
thus i've let us make labor honorable that our sons
may feel they do sacrifice dignity, honor or station
by learning some art; and that when storms and tenn
pests aso and wealth and competency vanishes, they
will have something left which the "word cannot take
away, and which never can be lost-namely, GOOD
TRADE"
There never was doctrine untrue than the
now, we trust, almost obsolete one derived from the
false distinctions OF monarchies that mechanic proes-
sons are mena and beneath the station OF true gem
tleman The truth is, they the only professions that
have substance and reality and practical utility Ale
seems on reflection to be mere specuation--idealty-
dreaming leather aud prunella The greatest
in the annals Of the world-the men thai have done

liberties of the human race, have been mechanics II Is

Here the old man went over string OF
questions which is not worth while here to
relate. The conclusion ofthe conference left
Robert In the possession Of check Tor q
thousand dollars, letter Of introduction TO
parson Green Of the Presbyterian Church. and
the following advice from the lips ofthe father
in-iaw IN the prospective He was 10 run
away with the girl, to use his Mr.. H car
rage, and George, his black waiter was TO
drive il, &c.
Robert governed himself in strict accord
nnce with the advice given. and before dark
the parties were ut parson Green's, whose
scruples OF conscience were quoted by the in
PRODUCTION Of the letter. They were soon
pronounced man and wife, and jumped into
the carriage, followed by blessing from the
parson, whose fee was but a small part Of the
thousand dollar check. George was directed
to drive the carriage to rich old childless
uncle Of Roberts who lived about five miles
from the city. to whomstbe secret was told
He thought the joke too good to be enjoyed

played upon one Of the weallhiest shippers OF
the South.
Early the next morning Robert and Mrs.
Moultrie were attended by their uncle and
aunt to the house Of Mr.. Hallowell--the young
couple anxious for the efIcryescence Of q fa-
theirs wrath to be over, and the antiquated pair
to act as modifcators on the question. They
were met by Mr.. Hallowell, whose first words
were :
You young rogue you, | didn't know my
advice was to act upon me. Well, Robert,
he added, laughing heartily, you caught me
that time, and you deserve to be rewarded
for the gencralship you have displayed. Here
my boy-my son suppose must say, here
is a deed Of PROPERTY, worth eleven thousand
dollars, and henceforward you are my partner
