CoLUMBIA.-Tae appearance Of Colum-
bia during ''the leafy month Of June" was.
IN times gone by, one of the most beauti
fut. presented by any city in the Union.
Many travellers ana tourists were wont To
tarry here for few days, to admire its
beauties. 1t was emphatically garden
city, with its shaded streets, its number
less private gardens, filed with rare exo
Tics and choicest flowers, the tasteful ele-
eancc OF its private residences, the refine
ment of its inhabitants; these all COM
blned to render Columbia one Of the most
attractive spots in the country
But, alas! the sad rayaees of n rrth,es.
civil war have wrought mournful change.
The rows of shade trees are now repre-
sented by charred. boushless and leafless
trunks; the rose trees and evergreens have
disappeared with the elegant dwellings,
thoy adorned, and nought remains but a.
few dliapldated chimney stacks, crumblint.
to piles of brick-bats. There are no attrac-
tions now to invite the traveller to remain
among us-no charming reunions Of DO
lished society. no sound Of music inviting
the young of both sexes to trip s'the light
fantastic toe"-all is changed. and the
dreary realities of life fill up the joyiess
hours.
But let us be of good cheer-ethe goo.,
time is coming" The sound Of the ham
mer and the trowel are heard from morn
ing until night around us, and we know
what human energy and perseverance can
accomplish in a short time. Public and
private buildings are fast raising their
walls on the vacant lots, and it will not be
many years before Columbia will be re-
stored to more than her former beauty.
