The seed honse, which contains the seed as it is taken from the wagon, is situated about ' feet l'rom the mill house properv In, the. .^seed house there is a .hopper with a roller .full of spikes. The seed -arephced in this hopper and stirred 'by 'the. spiked roller; this hopper feeds ...tfcjb &eed.; into a revolving wire", screen which..sifts ihe trash,Mocks of lint coltooyetc., from the seed. From tliii screen the seed drop into a fan ;:as they ,pas3 into the fan they are dropped on . ..a magnetic ;table..which is leauing on an incline ; the seed.readily slip over 'this,* while all'-nails- or any metalic subs^nce adhere's to the magnet. This is.to. prevent, nails, screws, etc., from , gettiog ?Into-the- linters. The fan blows all' grit, dirt and trash out, which may halve been left in the seed by the screen. 1.After passing through l lli?rfrnf.-Gi\T:alhcr-by thexlraft of the ! ftrr; 11rr ^eed -* drop mTo-u sere r cod- jveyor uri<l"p2$y lUtO't'hi3' toll I" lioi^j and kre ..drojgpe^Jntp a "belt conveyor iwhicth. deposits., Ihem upstairs into ! m:oti?r screw conveyor which runs al6ng^Stitoj)of the gin and are dropped . #0111; JpiiT screw.' conveyor' Into the feeders. .: The feeders. have . spiked rollers in them, which tumble the seed ' about' and,; dFstribntes' them in the , gins^^Th'escyjTiis Yrc' called linters'. . .{TJ(iey,gin? .ih.eiint left on the seed by ot-her ffiatt) -The lint is then gathered "and-packcd in bales - and sold as a low grade of cOttori.

OCCASIONAL. j Columbia, Nov. 30.?The usual routine and. the cnll of unfinished business took up most of yesterday, and the hum-drum of the House vras not disturbed until the bill to reduce tfae salaries of the State officers was brought up, when a most lively breeze sprung up. The House vras unwilling to vole at once upon so .important a measure, and the discussion was brought to a close upon a motion to postpone to some miure u?v na w.jideraiion. The marriage liccnse bill started a most frantic cyclone of discussion. Mr. Ficken, of Charleston, espoused his cause most zealously, and the announcement that the clergy, willi few exceptions, ia Charleston were in favor of the bill seemed to impress the House. Messrs. Buist, B raw ley, McCrady and others spoke in favor of the present state of affairs, but all to no purpose. The House passed to the second reading the bill requiring all those who contemplate marriage to get a license j from the Clerk to legalize (he ceremony, and one more obstacle in the way of marriage has been raised. It is hoped the Senate will kill the bill. Ottr mambers voted solidlv against it. The flouse indulged in the luxury of a night session last evening. This morning is being taken up with a diacustion of the Charleston liquor i bill.
