A THOUGHT FOR THE YoUNG.-More
may be learned by devoting few moments
daily to reading than is commonly supposed.
Five pages may be learned in fifteen miuu-
tes, at which rate one may peruse twenty
volumes, of two thousand pages each, in q
year. The best scholars and men of science
will tell you by far the most valuable part
of their education, is that which they have
given to themselves. Volumes have been
filled with the biography of self.taught men,
Think of Franklin, the Printer; Line, the
Shoemaker; of Herchell, the Musician !;
of Donald, the weaver; Of Turner the prin-
ter; of Burritt, the blacksmith. Love
learning and you will be learned. Where
there is will there is way.
Begin at once to take time by the fore.
lock, and remember, it is only the first step
that costs, and having begun, resolve to
learn something every day. Strike the blow,
and avoid the weakness of those who spend
half their life in thinking what they shall
do the next. Always have volume with
you which you can catch up at such odd
minutes as are your own. 1t is incredible,
until trial has been made, how much real
knowledge may be acquired 10 broken frag-
ments of time, which are like the dust of
gold and diamonds.

VENHE Subscriber desires to inform the public
L that he is prepared to furnish to any one that
wants such thing the BEST COTTON GIN that
is made anywhere, and he is still making improve
ments on his former Gins, and has no fear in chal
longing any other Gin Factory to produce an
equal in performance or speed. With good, dry
Cotton, the roll in the gin cannot be broken nor
made to spew over-which cannot be said of any
other gin. His gin also has advantages and i'm
provements which no other can have, as these have
been regularly patented, such as the exclusion
of rats from the brush, &c., by the peculiar con-
struction ofthe gin, which no other has right to
make He also makes T HRASHERS of different
construction to suit the wish ofany one: thespike
beater combined, the smooth drum with fingers
and no spikes, and different other patterns. He
has also the right of the celebrated Darlington
Trashers which are very much admired by every

JUVENILE SOLDIERS.

The present excitement and military dis
play throughout the country, have ava
kened like spirit in many of the children.
Sometime ago We noticed in the Lexington
Flag, that the boys of that town had form
ed themselves into company, with blue
coat and white pants for uniform, and that
the little misses were going to present to
them flag. There are several Of those ju-
venile troops in Charleston. The other day
Madame Togno presented a flag to the
"Gasper Guards" one of these troops COM
manded by Master Algernon Aston. Every
time there is q muster in Yorkville, some
of our Juveniles are out and take great in
terest in the performances.
This shows that children are very prone
to initiate their superiors in years. We have
seen little focks of the "young folks" form
community of farmers, doctors, merchants,
lawyers, &c., and act it out with absorbing
relish. They are. peculiarly apt to watch
grown people, and repeat what strikes their
fancy in their own actions and lives.
Speaking of soldiery imitation in the
young reminds us of an auecdote on the lit
tie French prince which shows that chill.
dren will often act in child's way after
ALL This little fellow has regiment of
boys of his own age. One day when he was
reviewing them in his brilliant uniform
having General of the army by him-be
wanted to throw up his dignity, and take
musket on his shoulder, and march in the
ranks. 1t was with difficulty that the Gene
raj got him to keep his place. And when
the parade was over, as the boys were going
to dinner that was prepared for them,
the prince scampered off, ran his arms into
those of two little favorites, and went thus
to the feast. I he show was spoiled though
the "sprig of royalty" exhibited his child
nature with naiuete and frank simplicity
that does Que good to contemplate
"You cannot put an old head on young
shoulders" Children, put on restraint, are
all the while like the cat in the fable who
was turned into a lady, and sat up nicely
enough till rat ran by, when she took after
it and gave it hot chase Their nature
will out. Let them have free play, as long
as harmless. Nature and God will take
care of them Our wisdom is to let them
wisely alone.

A Brave Boy.
Re Oh your guard, and strive and pray
To drive all evil thoughts away.

A brave little boy who was left alone in
charge of dentists office and lodging in
New Orleans, recently was awakened in
the night by the entrance of a burglar
With eyelids opened merely to line, he
saw him step to the side of the bed, look
through the musquito bar, and bend his
head down to listen if the occupant betray-
ed signs of being awake. Satisfied with the
scrutiny, the burglar took piece of candle
from his vest pocket and lightened it with
match. He then raised the mosquito
bar and put his head under, holding the
light in one hand and bowie-knife in the
other, the blade lying against the forepart
