s. G. BADGES JEwELRY SToRE.-Our
readers are aware that there is no finer estab-
lishment in the city, and none that is more
creditable to the place, in its line, than that
Of our enterprising iand liberal friend and
fellow,townsman, 8. g. Bridges. Our citi-
zens have had occasion to notice the enlarge.
ment of his establishment, and to admire
the magni6cence of its appearance, and the
splendid effect of its internal arrange.
ments. And they are likewise well aware
Bridges keeps on hand and can supply
them with every variety of articles in his line
of the very best quality, and the most ad
mired styles.
But we wish to call attention to q feature
of his establishment which was surprise to
US, and will be to many Of our readers. We
mean the fact that large proportion of the
articles kept for sale in his establishment,
are, also, manufactured there. He has q
Furnance and Forge machinery, Turning
Lathes, and other facilities for manufacturing
in his department, and keeps several very
skilful workmen constantly employed, not
only in executing orders for every descrip.
ton of work but in manufacturing stock for
the establishments. We noticed of their
manufacture Bracelets, Sleeve Buttons, Breast
Pins, Butter Knives, and Napkins, Handker-
chiefs, Rings and Watch Chains Of rare pat
terms, giving evidence of the taste and inge.
nuity of the proprietor, as well as the skill Of
the workmen. The fame of this establish.
ment is widely spread over the country, and
| it is one of the institutions which both the
pride and interest of our citizens call them
| to sustain and cherish.

To FoRErELL WEATHER. There are . grea
many people who take an important pride in
foretelling the weather. That all our read>
ers may attain this dignity, We compile, from
our exchanges, few signs upon which prog
nostications may be based with considera-
BILE degree of certainty. When = storm il
impending the spider shortens the threads OF
his web, and lengthens them again when the
storm is about to pass of. If the spider il
quiet, it is sign of rain, but when he goes
to work during shower, be sure it will soon
clear OF. The swallow is also an infallible
barometer, flying low, almost touching the
earth, and uttering low, plaintive cry be-
fore rain, but sailing back and forth high
in the air during settled weather. The pea
cock foretells rain by his frequent cries the
woodpecker, by its cooings the paraquot
by its gatherings and the guinea fowl By
going to roost. The goose manifests grea
uneasiness, plunging into the water, and rap
idly returning to land. The chirp of thu
cricket is q sign Of fair weather, but the or!
of the tree-toad indicates rain. When tn,
air is overcharged with moisture, the odor o
flowers is strong and penetrating, and in DR..
weather is soft and agreeable.
