BUSINESS.

We always have plea for absence from
home-always an excuse for the late return,
the neglected favor, the forgotten promise
Business, business, is our watchword and
constant cry-no time for wife, or home,
or BARNS. What is divorce but the ghost
of business? 1t crawls along the deserted
halls of affection, lays its cold hand on the
heart, fixes its abstracted gaze far away
from home-feels with lts slimy fingers for
those tender heart strings-lays hold of
them-breaks them. Man and wife are
put asuuder-business stands between and
parts them. They grieve, they are anger

c1GAR-MAKING MACHINE.

We have recently examined most in-
genious machine. The machine is in two
parts, one for rolling the filler (the buncbl,
and the other for putting on the wrapper;
the last, by the peculiar shapeof the rollers,
forms the rounded end of the cigar lthe
head), which is put in the mouth, and 1.-The
cigar is as easy to smoke, as nice in shape
az any handmade one. The wrappers are
cut from pile (book) of leaves to the
proper shape by novel cutting machine,
and a great number can be cut at once;
The motions of the hand are perfectly imi:
tated, and the softness and elasticity of
that member, which render it capable Of
such work, is obtained by endless bands Of
rubber moving over rollers, and which roll
the cigar into shape. Patents have been
taken out in Europe and in this country,
as we'll as in some portions Of South Ameri.
ca and the tropics Ata examination Of
this machine at Madrid, made by royal or
der, the commission reported that it made
AZ cigars in ten minutes, or 252 in one
hour, and this was manifessly SO great q
saving that it would have been adopted BIZ
the Spanish government if that body had
had other means Of employing the'number
Of persons which such machine would
throw out of employment, but it will event
ually be adopted in Spain.
To show the value of such an invention
to this country, We may state that in New
York city alone there are about 100000
smokers, each using two cigars per diem,
which makes 100000 cigars per day
These will cost for labor alone about s6 per
thousand, the enormous sum Of SS, ,760, 900
annually, when made by hand, and the in.
veptor calculates that his machine, which
can be attended to by women and children,
will produce them for 81 per thousand,
making the total cost for a year to the smo-
kers of this city for labor, only 81, 100000,
or one.sixth the present amount ) Tbs 10

A ALEIsURE LAY-TO E. II.

From my mountain haunts greet thee,
Child of Beauty, once again
From these scenes, where parent Nature
Wearies not with busy men.
II.
Some have thought that in the Future
In our home of iual bliss
All the scenes are but the memories
OF the scenes we've known in this;
That from Earth we bear impressions
To delight the spirit eye
Lights and shades, 50 dearly treasured
That in Heaven they cannot die.

I have deemed that thought true one,
And my faith is brighter here
Here, amid these grander glories
Proudly mounting far and near.

Singing songs that Nature taught her;
Or I see some wild cascade-some

While course some mountain torrent
Laurelled Little, all cascady,
Or Tokeske-reinless Racer
Or the Swannanoa shady;

Or some nameless ferny rillet
Romping down its headlong way;

Something for the spirit time
Scenes of beauty as immortal
As the spirit-lfe sublime.
Always here there glides, my Fairy,
(Softly, lightly, here-among.)

You have, OF course, read all the Orange

Duke Of Newcastle. He has taught a deep and
useful state-lesson Of government to the future

mischieyOus class-combination, and restore so
ciety- The Duke Of Newcastle has been wise in
his ministerial conduct In this czse; and while he
has silenced the fanatical Orangemen Of Toronto
he has too. perhaps, preserved the colony Of Cam
ada from being lost to the Queen Of England

U 3. s. "wARRBN," PANAMA Bar,

II The late Mrs Edward s Livingston whose
death on "Wednesday We have already announced
was born in the Island Of St Domingo, and was
about III or ~ years old when the massacre af the
whites occurred; her family name was D'Avizac
who originally came from France. Her parents
were refined and educated people, and possessed
large wealth, all of which lost. They fortu-
nately escaped by some means with their lives or
at least the mother with two daug hten and q son ,
and landed at New Orleans In very narrow cir
cumstsnces. The mother opened genteel board-
ing house In that city, while the accom- pills shed
daugh hters turned their attention to teaching mu-
sic. Among the first boarders of Mad. D'Avizac
were two lawyers, viz: Edward Livingston and
Henry Carlston, who soon obtained q high posi-
ton at the bar. One OF the daughters became Mrs
Livingston and the other Mrs. Carlston. The
brilliant career Of Mr.. Livingston Is well known;
he was reckoued the most polished statesman of
his time, while Judge Caflston reached the high
est judicial honors in the gin of the State Young
DAyizac, the son, studied law, and became a
successful advocate. he acted az one of General
JacksOn's aids at the battle Of New Orleans and
was Afterwards appointed by him Minister to the
Hague. Mrs. L., In her time, was a arkaby
tne-looking lady. Erect In her walk, with a fine
figure and regularly formed features her appear
ance was remarkably striking Her eyes were Of
the tropical sun beneath which she had been
born. The mother seemed never to have recov-
cred nom the untold sufferings Of mind produced
by the horrors OF one Of the most brutal and un-
called for scenes In the history of man She fell
Into an early grave And with the death Of Mrs
Livingston, We believe, the grave has closed on
all the members Of this once afiuent and happy
family, who sought refuge on our shores In hon.
orable indulgence.
