We visited, a few days since, the snilh-estab-
Iishment of Mr.. SILAs BURNS of tSfs City,
and were pleased with the rapidity with which
his work is carried on, as we'll as with the quality
Of the articles he manufactures The machinery
CT Mr. Burns is moved Ivy water power, suf
fccnt quantity being supplied by a very small
stream running along the western suburbs Of the
City. We saw axes Of various kinds-the COM
mon axcs-the broad-axe-and the axe used by
drawers of turpentine, and we are informed that
they are equal, in every respect to those made at
The North. The cnterprising proprietor also
makes drawing-knives of the most approved kind
and uses almost, if not entirely, the North Caro-
lima iron.


Mr.. Burns deserves great credit for his in
dustry and enterprise. He is not only of great
benefit to the community, but~he honors it by his
presence and indefatigable spirit; and we hope
bis labors and exertions will not go unrcwarded.
