KING sOLOMON'S BLACKSMITH.

And it came to pass when Solomon, the
son of David, had finished the Temple of
Jerusalem, that he called unto him the
chief architects, and the head artifcers,
and cunning workers in silver and gold,
and in wood, and i'll ivory, and stone-yea,
all who had aided in rearing the Temple
of the Lord-and he said unto them:
"Sit We down at my table, l have pre-
pared a feast for my chief workers and
cunning artificers. Stretch forth your
hand, therefore, and eat and drink and be
merry. Is not the laborer worthy of his
hire? Is not sk.llful artifcer deserving
of honor? Muzzle not the OK that tread
eth ont the corn"
And when Solomon and the chief work
men were seated, and the fairness of the
land, the oil thereof, were set upon the
table, there came one who knocked loudly
at the door, and forced himself even into
the festal chamber. Then Solomon, the
king, was wroth, and said: ..... .,.
!" What manner of man art thou2"
And the man answered and said:
"When men wish to honor me, they
call me Son Of the Forge; but when they
desire to mock me, they call me black
smith; and seeing that the toiling Of
working in the fire covers me with sweat
and smut, the latter name, o King, is not
inapt, and in truth, thy servant desires no
better" ..s-
But" said Solomon, "why came you
thus rudely and unbidden to the feast,
where none save the chief workmen of
the Temple are invited 2"
please ye, my Lord, came rudely,"
replied the the man, "because thy servants
obliged me to force my way; but came
not unbidden. Was not it proclaimed that
the chief workmen of the Temple were
invited to dine with the King of Israel -
Then he who carved the cherubim said /:
"This fellows no sculptor"
And he who inlaid the roof with pure
T gold said:
| "Neither is he workman. in fine met
ais" ...'.
+ And he who raised the walls said:
He is not cutter of stone"
And he who made the roof cried out 4:
"He is not cunning in cedar wood ;
neither knoweth he the mystery of uni
ting pieces of strange timber together y
Then said Solomon, "What hast thou to
say, Son of the Forge, why 1 should not
order thee to be plucked by the beard,
scourged, and stoned to death with
stones?" $3.50. ....
And when the Son of the Forge heard
this, he was in no sort dismayed, and, ad-
vancing to the table, snatched up and
swallowed glass of wine, and said:
80 King, I've forever The chief men
Of the workers in wood, and gold, and
stone have said that am not of them, and
they have said truly. am their superior {:
before they lived was I created. 1 am
their master, and they are my servants. /"
! And he turned him round, and said to the
! chiefs of the carvers in stone: = '-
"Who made the tools with which you
carve2" :.
And he said: >.,. -z.
"The blacksmith"
And he said to the chief of the masons :
"Who made the chisels with which the
stones Of the Temple were squaredg"
And he said:
"The blacksmith"

A-@AASAsSaN
Weextract the following from the Aka's
Commercial and Financial article of last
Friday:
The increased activity in trade circles
alluded to in our last, has since continued
and has included in it several articles of
merchandise which had before been COM
paratively neglected. And, while the
movement has been to some degree specu-
lative, the feeling among merchants has
become general that large demand must
ensue, with the opening of the roads and
revival of spring trade, for all staple
goods, and the knowledge that stocks of
these articles are not over large, imparts
to holders strong degree of confidence in
the future of the markets.
Financial matters present no new fea-
lures. The Money market for last steamer
accession was characterized by the same
general ease and accessibility which has
prevailed for months past. Accommoda-
tons were promptly extended at Bank at
the usual rates, l1@2 $P cent per month.
The demand for gold bars was fully equal
to the supply, at S56@S6O. Silver sold
at l 8g cent premium to cent dis
count. The ruling rates for Exchange on
London were S4@SS, for Bankers Bills;
for Francs, G5. Gold Drafts on Eastern
cities sold at l@2b t cent premium; Cur
rency bills were drawn at 80 IT, cent pre-
MUM on Gold; Transfers by Telegraph
ruled at 3@34 &R cent premium:
Latest received New York Gold quota
tons are to Monday, 3oth ult., quoting at
2ll3. On the 3lst, Gold was quoted as
opening at 2O5 and closing at POP.
Legal Tenders are in good demand, and
are quotable at $494@5Oc.

Saturday morning, man BY the name OF
A. l.. Parrish, who is employed at the
Rock Point Mill, below this town, while
sitting with his back to revolving shaft
that carries the matchmaking pans, was
caught BY his coat on the shaft and twist
ed around and around until all his cloth
ing-except his neek-handkerchief and
socks-was torn from his person, leaving
him IN almost state of nature, consider
ably bruised and very much frightened at
his narrow escape from death. This Is
the second instance of the kind that has
occurred within two weeks in our mills,
and should serve to render operatives more
careful of getting their clothing caught In
machinery, for, though two have escaped
from being horribly mangled and crushed
by whirling machinery, the third may be
less fortunate.
FIRE.-Yesterday afternoon the alarm
of fire was given. which proved to issue
from the Virginia Restaurant, on South c
street, next door to the Enterprise Saloon.
The FIRE caught from defective stove
pipe, and came near being serious con-
Migration. as many Of the adjoining build

The Wilmington Expediti0u.

1t is a happy augury, that the public are
disposed to take so calmly and so wisely
the fuctuatine fortunes of war. The
time has been when every one felt com
peteat to criticse at his liberty the intri-
cate operations Of the war, especially its
re erses, in our national inexperienced and
the yastness Of the field of war hardly
unavoidable.
Happily, the confidence Of the people
in the skillful leadership of Grant has
worked profitable and gratifying change

Discovery Of Geld in South america.

The Buenos Ayrcs Standard, Of Octo-
Der Goth announces that in the Province
oil San Juan, which is situated most ut
the foot OF the CordilIeras, gold has been
discovered i'll almost Incredibly large
quantities.
The fuI particulars Of this discovery
are huShed up and kept from the masses
for obvious reasons; but authentic Iatei-
ll.enee has been received by some Eng
!Sh residents of Buenos Ayres, which
leave no Doubt that the treasures of the
Andes are about to become known 70 the
world
Within two DAYS after the discovery
was made, or 400 ounces in GOLD were
secured by the gold miners; but since, no
mails have been recei eli from this aurif-
erous region.
