Oil "OvnSEER" has been received but too -late for this issue it will appear inour next. From the Galveston News. At 0:FWe copy the following article from se the Railroad Record published in Cincinnati; 67 and we invite 'our readers throughout the State, to give it.their careful consideration, wc for we doubt whether we have ever publish. est ed an article that naturally suggests more pri important reflections to the people of the Soutl We have often thought that, by the eil proper application of science and chemical is skill, with the aid of all the latest improve- ste ments in the manufacture of cotton seed oil, millions of dollars might be saved to the is South annually. In regard to the value of oil the cotton fibre, which adheres to the seed sh and is now thrown away with it, we cannot Its speak with equal confidence. But we trust. this article will elicit some discussion among our planters, who are so deeply interested . in the subject, -and that some valuable inTor. mation to the public, may. be the result. th COTTON SEED AND ITS USES. an In looking over the annual reports of the fer products of this great staple, one cannot fail re, to observe that the only product of the cot. of ton crop, extensive as it now is, is the fibrous thi covering of the seed, the cotton of commerce. pri The seed itself, the real fruit of the plant, is wi now of no absolute value except to manure fac the fields. And when it is considered that co nature in most other agricultural products, fac has made the fruit itself of more value than ch its covering, it will be readily conceded that oil the-present cultivation of cotton presents an. an - anomaly in agriculture, and one which an. th, alogy would lead us to suppose coul:1 hardly exist. What if the producer of flax should co throw away for one year only, the ripe seed an of his plant, would it not be a commercial bli calamity to be regretted by every citizen of '-I the world? If the grower of wheat, or corn, ps or oats, should content himself with the pro. oi duct of his farm in chaff, would not civilized oi lations at once condemn his folly and comb pel a change of policy I It is true that the value of chaff in the one case, and flax in the other would illy repay the labors of the cultivator, but if they paid him a th'sand th fold, would he not be equally unwise to *C waste a large portion of the product with which the b~unty of nature has repaid his * toil? He -has sown his seed, nature has given the harvest, and the wise man will in make as much'of it as he can. And so we c conceive it must he with the cotton crop. . The cotton fibre is not the only, nor the- lar- si gest portion of the return of the soil, yet it T] is at present the only porth~n that has value, rei be'cause the only portion applied to the arts, or :made to minister to the wvants of man-.i -But is the refuse of the cotton crop of no thi value?- Is there no purpose in the wide range thi of art or manufactzre to which it can be ap- th plied, and be a source ofg.rofit to the plan- of tern1 In seeking the solution of this ques- or tia-n we shall consider first, the amount of ml this refuse at the present moment, and after. ht wards jhe uses to which it may be applied. F[Rst. The amount of the refuse of the fo Cotton crop. As near as can be ascertained to about 5,000,004) acres of land are planted th with cotton; the average product of this land is a- little over 300 lbs. to the acre, y baled cotton, making according to the an-. thor of " Cotton is King." In 1853, a total , production of 1,600,000,000 lbs. of baled dr cotton. Now, one pound only of baled, is B obtained from three and one-third pounds of ai the rough product. We have, then the fol 4owing statement of the cotton product ofa the country in 1853. p Total product of the field.. ... 5,333,000,000 g " baled Cotton.........1,600,000,000 Pt -- the Refuse, thrown to wauste.. .3,733,000,000 ful This, then, develops the remarkable fact, pi1 that the refuse of the cotton crop is, in the weight, twoo and one.third times as great as til the present available product of the cotton tig cudture. If Cotton is King now, when only us, thirty per cent. of the fruit of cotton plant lo, .is made availabile,.what will be the impor. lance of this great staple when the plants. tion shall yield one per cent, of valuable and available producti de SECoN~D. The uses to which the refuse of de the cotton crop may be applied. The refuse cit ~of the cotton crop consists of the seed arnd a re residue of fibre still adhering to it, in the ratio of about 40 per cent. of fibre, and 60 it per cent. of seed, liti THE FIBRE.

The seed of the cotton plant in itself by no means a worthless material. ter ie flax and other seeds it contains a large of e centage of oily matter, which can be ex. ses oted, and applied to useful purposes. Re. vei at experiments have shown that Cotton sol ,d oil, is one of the most valuable for both O iminated and lubricating purposes. In yet ise respects it ranks equal to the best Sperm the but in calculations of its value, we shall a N t it as equal to the cheapest grease in the In )w York market. col Cotton seed when compressed, yields 30 oa r cent of oil and 70 per cent of old cake ses isuming the same data as before, the yield mt oil would then be as followva: ed >tal refuse of crop........3,733,000,000 lbs. gr aan seed, 60 per cent.....2,229,800,000 pr , 30 per eent of last amount 671,940,000 tlhi I cake 70 per cent......1,567,860,000 c0 IALVEs. in The cheapest grease offered in the New be )rk market now sells at ten cents per pound. na suming this to be the value of Cotton te( .d oil and we have the following result, an I,940,000 lbs. of oil at 10 c. .$67,194,000 ab wt The value of this oil reduced to gallons ,ie muld be 75 cents per gallon.

Al rae following letter was elicited by 4he iding of the answver referred to: MnIssas EDIToRs-I am well aware that ge itation wines are now extensively made in a a State of new Jersey from the juice of ei a apple, and more from H arrison apples A an from any other variety, anid the most W it is dmade at Newark. 'Those knowing *~ es are correct with regard to its being a ai xture of poisonous drugs not fit for the a man stomach. - 'tr Having been in the hoanicultural business r over forty years I have had in eye single those spurious wines from the juice of e apple. It is gratifying to me to think that when a come to taste and test my wine-which end you accompanying this letter-you il find a wine, a pure artiele, free from all gs, and not an imitation. The sample [ nd you is eighteen months old, and made ter the following process: Take pure cider made from sound ripe pes as it runs from the press. Put 60 unds of common brown sugar into 15 lona of the cider and let it dissolve, then t the mixture into a clean barrel, and fill r, a barrel up to waithin two gallons of being J 1 with clean cider; put the cask in a cool th ice, leaving the bung out for 48 hours; kr m put in the hung, with a small vent, un.* fermentation wholly ceases, and bung up P1 ;ht, and in one year the wine will be fit for ap a. This wine requires no racking, the an iger it stands upon the less the better. Ju STERNvE BRUNsoN. Elhart, Ind., A pril, 1856. [It will be observed that our correspon nt has, for the benefit of all concerned, scribed the method of making pure ler wine, and it is for us to say some thing arding the sample ho sent us. ! t is a od cider wine, the best wve ever tasted. If raad any fault, it consisted in being a very le too sweet. This can be remedied bf' ing less sugar than the above named ount. A barrel of cider contains 31 gal. D< as. Wine from currants can be made in to same mannier exactly.-Scientific A meri- coi - - Ph Cow RELIEVED BY SURGERY.-The fol- ap ing case of surgery is reported in the a" ougman. The operation was performed JU Dr. Thayer of West Newton, Mass., up. a favorite cow of Mr. Geo. E. Allen. - e case was stoppage, caused by the gen tion of gas in the stomach from eating >many rotten apples. He says: Dr "Finding all my efforts to remove the liculty, unavailing, and she growving worse W idly, I called in the doctor above men- Rc ned, who very quickly decided that noth. but tapping would save her, and with my : sent hb made an -incision diirectly into a Rumen, or first stomach, just in front of a hip upon the left side ; and introduceing ] mall tube, such an escape of gas tookan te as would astonish even our modern ne: iicians. But the result was worth forty en llars more than before the operation. pi ose who witnessed the case, nd some a ire old farmers, pronounced the operation an< irely new to them. - ,iua SowING TURNs.-Do not forget that_ rat the last of July or forepart of Au. at is a good time to sow a patch of com in turnips. The soil for turnips should be mls, rich and mellow. -Ground where corn a failed, or stands too thin will answer, if ar of weeds and well stirred. Or aJ e of clean wheat stuble may be plough for the purpose; also patches in the gar. t i a where peas or early potatoes have been o vested.

The seefl, :if fresh, I tn amifema as four yeara. rHE CRoPs.-Thbe papers in various qui B of the country are giving good accour the prospects of the coming crops. T Lson is backward, but that is said to y favorable to the wheat, which w wn in immense quantities last fall. io the wheat is splendid, but the grass thin. Fruit was a great deal injured West. Peaches there will be none, 1: ery abundantyield of apples is expect New York State the wheat is in go ridition, though backward. Barley a ts are likely to do better than corn tl ison. Their growth does not require ich heat, and they are not so easily inji by late frosts. All English grains a isses promise well on'good land, which yperly managed. It is ,now too early season to say what will be the yield rn, for it depends mainly on the weatt July, August and 'September. Should favorable in June, and in the moni med, this country will have unprecedc I quantities of breadstuffs on hand n( tuinn. Fruit in New York State will undant. In New Jersey, in low lands, I eat has suffered severely in some cot a but in the high lands, it promises a fi >p. In Pennsylvania the general accou1 ) that there is a present prospect of a lar )p of wheat. The high prices of whi t year caused the farmers, from Maine dlifornia, to sow largely of this cereal.
