They lain would have me think that he
Is faithless to his vow;
And all the love he breathed for me
Is changed TO codness now:
That he will come no more at eve
To glad me with his smile:
They ne'er can make my heart believe
That be could SO begIile.
His words Of love | may not tell.
His looks / could not speak:
But 0 within my heart they dwell,
And bum upon my cheek
His memory which hath ever been
A fount Of purest thought,
Must oft recall each cherished scene
Andlesson he has taught.
If false, Danish for his sake
My dream of future bliss.
And every coming hour will take
Its wTetchedness from this.
Though he should leave me to despair,
And turn my fond eye dim,
I'll bless him in my morning prayer,
And in my evening hymn.

GRANITE.-A highly intelligent gentleman,
who accompanied the expedition against the
Commanches, has informed us that the
source Of the Llano, he found large hills com
posed entirely of primitive rocks, among which
a species of granite predomnated, resembling
the Quincy granite, only that it contained lar
ger proportion of quar- and very white feldspar.
LARGE quantities of mica slate are also found in
the same section. If future researches confirm
this statement, it will furnish an important fact
for the geologist, and here will be opeDed an in,
te, esting field of inquiry. Ithas long since been
ascertained, that the whole region bordering
the Colorado and all its eastern branches above
Bastrop, and extending more than eighty miles
above the San Saba, as well as all the region
bordering the San Saba belongs to the secondary
formation; and most of this formation, to the
most recent groups of secondary rocks
1t will appear therefore almost an anomaly IN
geological history that primitive rocks should
thus be found rising abruptly through extensive
secondary strata, in insulatei hills. we have
long entertained doubts, whether The small
masses of granite and mica slate that are occa-
sionally found among the pebbles IN the banks
of the Colorado at Austin, were mere fragments
of boulders; or were washed from Lodges In the
mountains that furnish the source OF this stream.
On comparing the specimens oil mica slate,
brought from the Iiano, with the pebbles found
in the Colorado at Austin, we find them precise
lv similar: and there can be no doubt that they
lave been washed from the same locality. The
fact that primitive rocks thus found in this
section. win fend to confirm the tradition that
valuable cold mines were formerly worked In
that vicinity bv the Spaniards. Texas paper.

AMERICAN MECHANIcs.-lt Is stated that a
company in Trieste, Austria, have despatched
an agent to buy the entire machinery of a
! Touring MILL and take it over TO Trieste. Some
| shipments of wheat having been made TO the
| United States from Austria, 1888, 80, it was
ascertained by those that sent it, that when ii
was ground up in this country, better flour and
more in quantity was produced than could be
obtained from the same quantity of wheat IN
Austria. The knowledge Of the fact caused
the mission of special agent for the purpose
above named. A New York paper says:
The agent on his arrival in New York, con
tracted with the Lafayette Burr Stone Com.
pany, at the corner of Robinson and Washing
ton streets, to construct run of mill stones, of
d sufficient size toturn out 300 barrels of flour
per day. These Is stones are now completed,
and have been shipped. The running gear
and the working gear have all been made in
this city, and the whole will ost about SIS, O1O
A miller from Richmond has also been engag-
ed to go out to Austria, and to work the mill
three years. A millwright also goes out to put
up the MILL In short, this country furnishes
every thing connected with it, except the
frame the MILL
This movement is but the first of a series
towards an extensive business, to be done by
the United States, in the manufacture of mills
ana machinery LOT European nations. Already
has this country sent out to France, England,
Russia, Turkey, Austria, and other European
countries, lTigates, steamships, sailing vessels
Of all kinds, locomotives, steam engines, cotton
gins, printing presses, mill machines, and all
kinds Of Improvement in every description of
machinery; and Mr., Cochran has supplied the
Pacha OF Egypt with guns to carry on the war
against the allied powers. We have steam
fTigates on the stocks for Spain, one for Russia
in our waters, printing presses Tor the continent
OF Europe, jus; finished at Hoes foundry; many
chambered cannon just finished for the Pacla
by Cochran; rifles and guns of all kinds on the
way to France; American cotton gins just fin
