pA. The Detroit papers tell good story
of gentleman who lives in that city, and
who is the possessor of an amiable wife,
He had the misfortune a short time since
to see her prostrated on bed of sickness,
which, as appearance indicated, was about
TO make an end Of her. lie was excessively
grievcd at the prospect,en out of pure desire
to be employed in some labor of love as an
earnest of his affection, he posted off to the
cemetery anu PIFChS55S u io., 10. set the me-
ohanies and nurserymen at work, and short'
ly had so charming q nook fitted up that
it would been pleasure to any sensible
person to be buried in it Not go with the
lady, hswever. She got well, and before the
roses budded, which were to have waved
over her grave, the lilies had departed from
her cheek. The husband, little abashed
at his over-tempered zeal, said not word
about the lot in the cemetery, but by some
means she heard of it. IL is not pleasant TO
have such close reminders Of ones future
existence, and the lady felt not little yexed
at the extensive preparations which hor be-
loved had made to get her under ground
She strictly followed his example, and kept
her own counsel, but by way of q fair re-
taliatiOn, posted of to the jewelers., and or
dered an elegant silver coffin plate, on which
she had inscribed the name Of her husband,
and an appropriate epitaph, leaving blanks
for his age and date of death. This the
astonished benedict found on his bureau one
morning when he got up. He saw the joke
at the same time that he heard the sup
pressed laugh of the spouse from unier the
bed clothes. The plate is now slowed away
in the lady's writing desk, as 3 standing
oafset to the Howery nook in the old ceme-
terry.

ers, &C., in ls42, without any capital except
knowledge Of their business, and determinas
tion to succeed. Their success is another evil
dence Of what may be accomplishment Dayton by
sober, industrious mechanics who understand
their BUSINESS. They have constantly enlarged
their buildings as their trade increased, until
they now occupy a brick building on the Lower
Hydraulic l4O feet front on the Railroad, and
1870 on the Canal. In this building they man
ufacture Moore's celebrated Drills, besides a
vast amount Of horse powers, and threshing
machines, wood saws for Railroads, and other
Implements. Their machinery, which. ia Of
the latest improved kinds, is all driven by news
er failing water power from the Canal and
their facilities for shipping by Railroad and
Canal cannot be excelled.
In addition to their other Agricultural implies
ments, they have commenced the manufacture
Of Dorsey's Self Raking Reaper and Mower;
and as they never manufacture any implement
until its merits are fairly tested, of course their
Harvester will meet with ready sale.
They also continue to keep their iron foundry
In full blast on the corner Of Second W ebster and
Pond streets, in two story building ISL feet
by 80, where they turn out a large amount Of
castings. They give constant employment TO
80 hands, and notwithstanding ths late panic,
have constantly increased their business. Such
men not only contribute to the substantial
wealth and prosperity Of Dayton, but at the
same time aid the Agrieulturists by furnishing
them the latest aud most approved Agricultu-
raj machinery. Without Drills the crops Of
small grain would be very uncertain. and with~
out Mowers and Reapers the grass and wheat
crops could not be secured in q wet season.
