A STOCB^older. 3fr. Editor: \ , I have been reading lately the mafv^g an(j i moral reflections of that profound phi'^opher aud excellent man, the Buke de fa K.oc\,fou, : cauld, and by way of amusement have tj\ns? lated some ofthe'M, which I place at ynur cs. posal. I believe the work has never bren ren dered into English, at least it has not met my' eye, and consequently they wiU be new and interesting and to a large portion ot your readers. The character of the author is so wdi known to the literary world, that it is-unneaessary to say a word in its description, particularly in the city of Columbia; yet it may I not be ii^ppropriate and must not b ; deemed an ! insult t?.the reading part of the community, to | quote What Lord Chesterfield and one or two , others^ave said of him. " Read in the morn-, j ing, rfiys his Lordship, some of Rochefou I cauldjs maxims, consider them, examine them I \ v/e\\i and compare them with the real char ! actefs you meet with in the evening. Till i yoi&ome to know mankind by your own ex i per/ence, I know no tiling nor no man that cai, in the mean time bring you so well ac quainted with them as the Due de Rodiefau i caiid. His book is I fear too like, and too e.\ acj a picture of human nature.'' Hoffman > sajs, " To Rochefoucauld it lias been objected, I thit his views of human nature are rash and i h t principles ungenerous ; the young mind I dtts not easily admit his unfavorable repr. i sedations of mankind, yet he is a happy man I wlp reaches old age and dors not esteem tli.s ceibraud writer much more a paiutor than a i caicaturist."

There is in the human heart a constant : generation af passions, so that the destruction of on# vs almost always the estab.ishment of 1 anotiirj. i. Self-love is the greatest of flatterers. . YV fiat we call virtue is often merely a col j lection of different actions and interesu which ; iortune or industry knows how to arrange ; i and it is not ahvays by vaJor or chastity that I m tu are brave and women chaste., If we were, not proud, we would not com plain of the pride of others. if we were fauliless^we should not take so much pleasure in detecting the faults of oth ers. Those who apply themselves much to tri ?iJSt tonally become incapable of grer.t deeds. Nothing should diminish so much the satis faction we have with ourselves, as to see that we disapprove nt one moment what we approve .at another.

Mr. 3. was ft native of Charleston, and for many years a very active member of seve^ ral charitable institutions, and during his life ha was always foremost in consoling and re lieving his fwkrw creatures in distress: he was a most fond husband and a kind, affectionate, and indulgent father ; he had endeared himself to a rtery numerous circle of friends, not only by his kind and charitable, disposition, but bjr his virtuous and .exemplary co.cluct. IV his bereaved and disconsolate Widow and Orphans, this awful but wise dispensation of di vine Providence, is indeed for. them a bitter cup j of affliction. Thus has he been suddenly called away to receive - Tiis just reward, for the good deeds he has done, while he was permit ted to a<5t on this earthly stage of life.* It is needless for one who truly hpnored and reve renced him for his many virtues while living, to paint bi& character in too glaring colours, but the writer of this is \yiliing to leave the justness and truth of these assertions to those who were most intimately acquainted with the deceased, while living. He was for the lasi thirty- five years, a very useful and respoctable member of l he Jewish Synagogue and his purse was always to aid that sacred and reli gious Tejn pi ? of his forefathers. Surely lie, above the rest of his fejjow mortals, will par take of a heaven above, and a bliss which none but the good anff Virtuous ever claim, but it is firmly hoped that he will enter that" house not madB with hands, eternal- in the Heavens. \ COLUMBIA, DECEMBER 3, 1S36 BA*GING, Hemp - ~ - " BALE ROPE,- - BACON, Round, - - BUTTER, Country, COTTON, Prime to Choice, Fair to good, ~ - ' ' - MACKEREL, No. 1, - - .

They were made express y to his order, by a superior workman ? the materials and workmanship of the most substantial and finished kind. It were needless to say anything of the great ad vantages resulting to Famihes from having their Medicines put up, and kept, in a compact, neat and convenient form where, in cases of sudden illness, or otherwise, they may, in a second, lay th* hand on the article needed , and in which, Medicines are effectually preserved from those changes, whether from deterioration or concentration, which rentier them alike Objectionable, ? and ah this for a compara tively trivial amount. He has sold several of these Chests during the past summci and fall, and in?every instance, where he has had an opportunity of he ring of them, they have given great satisfaction.
