Is days.
Mourn not, fond mother. Your fair flower
A shining seraph reigns above:
Removed by God from sorrows power,
Yield him thy child, thy heart, thy love.
Jesus. while here on earth, did take
And bless the children 10 him brought,
Nor did he ever yet forsakc
Earths frail ones when his face they sought.
Jesus did give and take away,
q. then submit and bless his name:
Nor Cease TO labor, watch and pray;
Endurr HI, cross. dc>l,isc the shame,
- shall yvu with your loved one reign.

MANUFACTURING IN CoLUMBIA.-,We have
frequently noticed the manufacturing tenden-
cies of Columbia, although the result have
not yet become sufficiently important to chal-
lenge attention abroad, il became necessary
to the great interests of the place for the
future, that every additional development of
capacity to produce something new and use
ful "at home" should be noted, in order prop
erly to encourage the expenditure of new
effort for new result
We examined with much pleasure the other
day n small Iron sliding Lathe, manufactured
in her town by Mr.. D..Huckins for Mr.. Coo
per, jewelcr. The castings were maidin Char
lesion, but the patterns and finising Of the
work were executed in Columbia. As n spc-
linen of mechanic, it will compare with any
thing ever brought from the prolific North.
and we trust that, should any of our readers
desire to possess any similar atticle in the
way Of machinery, they will call upon Col
umbia mechanics bafore looking elsewhere.
The lathe may be examined by curious at
Mr., Coopcr.s itorc, and We nrc satisfide that
the most rigoroussn inspection will sustain
onr encomium Of the work.

"Pray, may ask" said an English
bibliopole of distinction, at an agreeable
party where we had the pleasure to meet
him the other evening, "may I ask wheth-
er in America the law matrimonial enti-
ties man to marry the cousin Of his wild
owl" "Oh, yes" answered, a legal gen.
tleman Of sminence, who was present
"tsat is admissible; but there has been
some doubt in our courts as to the pro-
prety of a mans marrying the sister of
his deceased aOifs." "oh, ay;" replied his
querist: ain England, it is somewhat
different. There it has been, and is still
held, that no man can marry the cousin
Of his widow. because, before he has a
widow, he must die himself~ The catch
wss adroitly piled, and, when exposed,
created roars Of laughter. The recently
agitated question, touching incidently the
marrying Of wifs's sister, was what d.
verted the reflection ofthe guests.-Kniek-
