of repose to - bathe under''the shade of the tama

She looked anxiously towards the pavilion—it
was now silent and empty ; but a actrtof instinct
whispered to try the dark limes on the right.. This
path opened upon a small lake which now lay
basking in the full splendors of not n, while the
verdure around it slept cooly nutlet' the aballows
of the encircling trees. The source of this lake
was a marble fountain, almost hiddeil among , the
limes, from which the waters stole a ith a cleat and
loitering current, as if half, afraid- to encounter the
sunshine that veantnned so boldly over the like.
The deep !main, in which the stream thus lingered
on its way, looked clear and motionless as a 'mir

was to look atiziously round forthe writer of them.
But she was ton walk shath.d within the foliage for

did she petreive that he had read the verses, and
that obeying, almost uniensciously, their mandate,
he bent:his head over the water, than, with a pal
pitntird heart. she stole from her conteolment ;
and. stepping on rs rustic bench immediately be

a smile whose reflection, like Greek Fere, burned

It is kfact, 'that if we want manufactories, to
give profitable employment to our citizens; and a

otherwise they will be unable to compete with the

It is a fact, that the present free-Irode system,
between.us and England and France. consists, in
our admitting, either as free, ; or at low rates of

As early as .1699, the British House of Com--
mons declared "that the erecting of manufacto
ties in her 'Colonies of Anierica tended to lessen
their dependence upon Griat Britain."
The woollen mini:facture was:at that period
the most impowant °fall branches of, nianufattur
ing industay, the dlle of cotton' being ,coinpaia
tively limited.: In 1719, a law Wes. 'pai.ed
Parliament "that no wool, yarn, or woollen man

be shipped there, or oven laded, order to, be
'transported from thence to any owe
In - 1732,_1 report appeared from - the LondOn
Board of Trade, in co'mpliance with a legislative
rFonisition, in which the to!lowing pas Age oc

dertakings of this nature; so *moil the guire,be
cause these manuactures in process of time, may
be carried on in greater degree, unless an early
slop be put to their progrese."
In 1934, complaint; were made to Parliament
by the, hatters of London that tame of the Amer
ican colonists Were engaged in .the manufacture
of wool hots. An ad of Parliament followed not
long afterwards "to" prevent" the exportation of
hats out of any of his majesty's . colonies or plan
tations in Americaiandto restrain the number of
apprentices taken by the. Wumakers, in the said
colonies or Plantations, and for the bette?encour

this act not only _was the exportation of hats from
the colonies to n foreign port prohibited, but their
transpOrtation from one British colony to in - other;
they could not robe laden_upon any horse cart, or
other carriage, to the intent and purpose to be
exported; trans Ported, shipped off, dee., and no
person was allowed to make hats.unless he had
served an apprenticeship of seven '' .. years, nor
could he have more than two apprentices at any
one tine." •
Similar acts of restriction were passed to dis
courage other kinds of Manufacture: Lord Cue-
Taiat declared in Parliament that the British col
°nista In'North America ought not to be allowed
to manufacture even a nail for a Aorse.ahoe.
The first woollen manufactory in the United,
States was established in 1790, about seven years
after *the close:of the Bevoltitionery War, Weld
dent Washington delivered his inaugural address
in'a suit of broad cloth ircira this factory, which
was located at Hartford, Conn. --- •

trade into their hands, and creating a foreign de
mand for. agricultural productions, 'that the in-

enterprises were not so strong as they would have
been under other circumstances . -
