CorMDIA--Ir> DEroRAr!oSs.-A letter in
the Charleston Standard, from Il <Viourncr at the
American lllocl in Columbia, s. e., thus de-
scribcs the flower gardens Of that beautiful and
pleasant city:
" Ii there is one thing more than another,
Which arrests the attention Of the stranger upon
entering this city, ii i the number Of gardens
which arc everywhere, upon the right and upon
the left. question if anywhere else in the
world, the taste for Shrubbcry and flowers is so
universal. And as the peop lc are possessed of
sufficient means for the development Of whatever
taste may be most congcnal, the effect is, in the
highest degree, noticeable and admirable. With
the exception of those Of Paris, the gardens Of
Columbia are probably more beautiful than any
others in the world. And as their existence is
here entirely attributable to private enterprise
or private expenditure the reflection is all the
more pleasing and all the more in favor of Co.
lumbia Nor is this taste of which We speak,
exclusively the inheritance of the wealthest por-
ton Of the community. The humble dwelling
has its surrounding Of luxuriant green, and is
invested with all that beauty and natural orna
ment which is not only possible, but easy to the
poorest condition. The city, too, in its corpo-
rate capacity, reflects the sentiment Of its citi-
zens, and trees of beautiful proportions and foil
age, border and divide the streets.

A YoUNG SPARTAN.-A gentleman Of the
army, stationed at Jefferson Barracks, relates
the following with regard to a son lin his 18th
year,) of the gallant Hooe, of the 5th Infantry
who in the charge Of his regiment against the
enemies battery on the - lost his right
ara by cannon ball.
"You have heard, S., that your father was
wounded in the late battle in Texas?"
ayes, sir heard that he was slightly woun-
ded."
'.Your father, S. was much more seriously
wounded than we had been informed of but he
is now reported as getting well. Your father
had his right arm shattered by cannon ball
and it became necessary to amputate it; but.
thank God, he is getting well, and will soon
ioin your mother at home" The little fellows
ewes instantly filled with tears and after few
moments silence, lie anxiously inquired.
"Will father not have to leave the army;
Will he have to give up his company"
"No, my dear boy, he will not unless he
desires it,"
81 know he will not desire it," was the in
slant remark, "for when his wounded arm is
healed, he can put his sword on the other side,
and draw it with his left hand.-St. Louis Re.

IscoSs1srEycY.-In an account given by
Horace Greely, of late visit to Cremone
Gardens. London, occurs the following remar-
kabie paragraph:
"The English are not sklful in vanishing
vice--at least, have seen no evidence of their
tact in that line. endured the spectacle of
men danciug with women when rather beery
and smoking but at the last tie sight ola dark
and By no means elegant, m'ulatto pattziny with
a decent looking arhite girl, while putting away
at rather bad cigar, proved too much for my
Yankee prejudice and darted."
That such n spectacle should disgust any
"dccen,.l looking white man." is not to be won
dered at. But it is surprising that with such
sentiments, Mr.. Greeley should allow his pa
per to cover with the most abusive vituperation
every man on this side ofthe water, who ex-
presses sentiment at all approaching this.

AMERICAN LIHEN.-The Providence Journal
mentions having seen in that city some speci-
mems Of fax in the various stages of manufac

out rotting, to the yarn fine enough to spin
No. 100, and the woven cloth handsome fine.
ished and beautifully bleached. Twine, thread
and other manufactures Of fax were also exhib
tied. The Scientific American believes this to
be the first fine linen cloth and thread which
have been manufactured in this country Linen
twine and shoemakers' coarse thread have been
extensively manufactured, but not single yard
of American linen has been exhibited at any of
our fairs. By the new process of bleaching ard
spinning the manufactured article can be afforded
at much reduced prices.

TIE Power OF THE IMAGISATIoS.-1ha mys
tcrious influence exercised by the mind over the
body, is well illustrated in the following case,
contained in Dr. Warrens excellent treatise on
the " Preservation of Heolh::"
"Somctime since female presented herself
to me, with tumor, or swelling Of the submax
iIlary gland of the neck. 1t WAS about the size
of an egg, had lasted two years, and was so
very hard that considered any effort to dssi
pate it by medicine to be vain, and advised its
removal by an operation. To this the patient
could not bring her mind; therefore, to satisfy
her wish, some applications of considerable ac-
tivity were directed to he made to the part and
these she pursued number of weeks without
any change After this she called on me, and
with some hesitation, begged to know whether
an application recommended to her would, Ill my
opinion, be safe. This consisted in applying the
hand of dead man three times to the diseased
part. One of her neighbors now lay dead, and
she had an opportunity Of trying the expert
mcnt, if not thought dangerous. At first was
disposed TO divert her from it, but, recolccting
the power of the imagination, gravely assured
her She might make the trial, without apprc
hcllson Of serious consequences. Awhile after
she presented herself once more, and with a
smiling couutcnancc, informed me she had used
this remedy and no other; and, or examining
for the tumor, i: had disappeared"

BEHAVIOUR IN CoMpANY.-On the subject
of Behaviour in Company, Leigh Richmond
gives the following excellent advice TO his
daughters:
"Be cheerful, but not giglers, De serious,
but not dull BE communicative, but not
forward. BE kind, but not servile. Beware
of silly, though,less speeches; although you
may forget them, others will not. Remember
Gods eye is in every place, aud his ear in
every company. Beware ofIevity and fami.
liarity with young men: modest reserve,
without affectation, is the only safe path Court
and encourage serious conversation with those
who are truly serious and conversable; and do
not 60 into valuable company without endea.
vouring to improve by theintercourse permit
ted 10 you. Nothing is more unbecoming
when one part Of company is engaged in
profitable conversation, than that another part
should be trif1ing, giggling, and talking con-.
rarative nonsense to each other"

1t is not poverty as much as preteuce that
hawasse, ruined man; The struggle between a
proud man and an empty purse; the keeping up
a hollow show that must soon come TO an end.
Have the courage to appear poor, and you dis.
arm poverty IF its sharpest sting.

THE CLOUDS.

Beautiful clouds have whtchtd ye long
Fickle and bright as fairy lhrong;
Now ye have gathered golden beams,
Now We are parting in silver streams,
Now ye are tinged with roseate blush,
Deepening fast to crimson flush;
Now, like erial spirits at play,
Ye are dancing another way;
Melting in many pearly flake,
Like the cynet's down on the azure lake;
Now ye gather again, and run,
10 bask in the blaze Of setting sun:
And anon We serve ms Zephyr's car,
Fitting before the evening star.
