I A3*. GOING 10 SEEK 11Y FORTUNE.
I;y j. w. WATSON.
1 am going to seek my fortuno over the
html find sea;
Take my warm riflit li.ind, l.illie, and come
along \v it !i me.
Wo want ? not I alone, but you -riches, health
and fame ;
1 put the first before the la>t with tt little bluou
of shame ;
lint long before we've gone our route you'll fin I
uiy classing true?
That wealth will lead both health and fame, the
world, and me and you.
1 am going to seek my fortune, out in the
busy crowd ;
To push among the rich and poor, the humble
ami lhe proud :
Trt Willi.' I liVfki! .rlt ilovir nn.l ilni'tMia ivava n'nr
-- ? ? '"-j", v ...
rough .iu<l dangerous ground.
\\ itli shackled foci, nii'l blinded eyes, and hands
wiili fetters hound.
.Ml this to seek the phantom, wealth, that Hies
00 dctt before.
And leaves in when it lifts the latch to open
wide death's door.
1 ani going to seek my fortune?and mine
your own will he ;
Nor shudder while you risk with me the
perils of the sea.
Full many thousands tempt the storiu, and dan;ci
s all untold ;
And :...Uiy a ship goes down at sea, deep laden
with their gold.
All this to seek the glittering trash, through
battle, pain and death,
And lihd we only clutch the toy to lose it with
our breath,
I am going to seek my fortune. We want
both wealth and fame;
Hut should we lose the first we'll win a
bright, undying name.
For this we must have sleepless nights, and
weary, toiling days?
For this we must walk sternly on, uor once with
draw our ga/.c
From that diui star whose glimmering sheen we
scarce can call our own.
That fails when most we want its light, an 1
lca\cs us all alone.
I am going to seek my fortune, l ame lasts,
tliey say, through lime ?
Atul fame may be by virtue won, and so it
may by crime ;
Hy offering to the lust of blood a hecatomb of
lives?
Jly making countless orphans weep, and countless
widowed wives.
All this that we mliy win a name the world may
wish to save?
A name that cannot serve beyond the portals of
the grave.
I am going lo seek my fortune, with both
these phantoms Mown ;
And now, sweet l.illie, we may seek for
rosy health alone.
For this we need no peril risk, no death by land
or sea?
For Faith, and J.ove, and Ilopc will give the
hoon to you and me.
And thus, without a sleepless night, without a
sigh or tear.
W ithout a wandering step we'll find a glorious
fortune here.

W X. ('., October 1, 1 ST0.
Mit. ('. 1"'. AKKtts : Yours of the 18th
j of September received and contents uoted.
: \Yo are running two '"Clement attachments." 1
We have been running about three months. J
The attachments cost $300 each. We
arc running t>12 spindles, cost at Uridos|
burg, I'a , b3 per spindle. Two top flat
j cards cost ?22") each; card clothing $80 ; !
I one drawing frame, six deliveries, six into '
j one, ?liOO, 0110 block list speeder ?450; 1
two reels, forty spiudlca each, ?250 ; one 1
cotton cleaner *72. 1
fifteen In rse power is sufficient to run 1
the above machinery. We use 1.000 pounds
of seed cotton per day, and make an average
of ?5'-0 pounds of yarn daily. Wo work (
ten bands : one engineer at ?1. per day ; one !
forctnan, ?2 ; four girls at 50 cents, and four
girls at 40 ceuts each. We consume threefourths
of a cord of wood por day, at ?1.25
per cord. Our mill nets us from eight to 1
ten dollars per day. We get from 10 to 17 '
cents pur pound for our yarn. We sell in
Norfolk, Va., Baltimore, 31 d., aud New
\ oi k.
The new process has an advantage of
1 half over the eld. We dispense with the
lint room and all the machinery used therein.
We do throe times as much work on
our card a> can be done on the same card
in the old process. The cotton is never allowed
to fly or leave the machine until it
passes oil into sliver, or continuous roll, into
a revolving can. The profits are more
than doubl that of the old process. We
only use lour machines from the field to
make perfect thread (except the cottoncleaner,
which can he dispensed with.)?
'1 hero are alout ten machines used in the
old process, taking the cotton in the seed.
We run by steam, and think it cheaper
! than water, everything considered. The
; more attachments, or the larger your mill,
the greater will ho your profits, as the nxI
.l ow on..

| main object is to Gtul out how much seed
e ,lti'U you can get, and build your mill accordingly.
One great beauty in the Clement
attachment is that you can build on a very
small scale and make it profitable, and anot It is
that the Northern people cannot utilize
if, because they can't get seed cotton, and
therefore they arc down on it and doing all
they can against it. We sell our seed at
eight cents per bushel to the farmers.
Our machinery is all new and of the latest
and b.'.l improved. Second hand ma
chiucry can bo bought for half the money,
and a cheaper elass of new machinery can
be bought, but I always prefer the best, if
it costs a little more Ihiticrbpra Mann- |
laeturiug Company, (If) X. Front st: s't,
i'hiiudolpliia, i'a., is the address of tbclirui
that ! hoi: lit our machinery from.
Any information that I can give you in
the iuturc will he done with pi. -are. 1
lmpe to live to see the day when every pound
of cotton raised in the Mouth will bo man
afuciuivd in ihe Mouth ; then we will boconic
a prosperous people. Wo have labored
long enough to enrich the North, end
uow it is time our eyes were opened to our
own interest, hot me know what success
you meet with. Very respectfully,

Virginia in good circumstances.
About four years ago General Metcalfe

x complaint that had troubled him since
his retirement from the army service. He
found Dr. W. \V. Dawson, and intrusted
his case to him. The Doctor expressed
surprise at meeting him in au impecunious
condition, as he had known him several
years previous. The General said he would
like to get away from all of his associates,
lie had lost everything during tho war.
and he wanted to settle down somewhere as
a recluse and he forgotten lor the time by
all who knew him. The Doctor owui*? u
farm near Montgomery, and told hio^ he
could go out and live on die farm and cul
tivate it lor him. This was i:i 1875. The
General accepted both the treatment for
his disease and the proposition to cultivate
the Doctor's latin. Hero ho lived for some
time as a common larm hand, under an
assumed name, tho Doctor never lotting
out the secret. General Metcalfe made
melius oy ms uuosiemaunus aim urmiae
manners among the neighbors, and labored
early and late. Alter several months In:
went to work lor another farmer in the
neighborhood named Keller and managed
to conceal his identity all that time. IK
then went into the employ of W. il. Willis,
uear by, in the cultivation and management
of his farui. lie occupied a liule stone
hut away oh in a held by himself. Here
ho cooked and ate his meals and was unknown
to almost every one around him.?
The house he now occupies was formi.rly
used as a milk house. It is only alyn
twelve feet high from the ground, and has
only one room with a little garret nbij^c.
with fliu roof projecting in front at tt.e
galde end, and which is in a very dilapidated
condition. The farm houss connected
with it was burned to the ground
some time ago.
His identity was discovered about three
weeks ago in a singular manner. Turn

that there h\J been complaint in some
quarters that the < diincsc in certain portions
ot' the United States were deprived of undoubted
rights to which they were entitled,
lie desired to inquire if the Attorney (<onerul
held that they had a right to demand
to be tried before a jury of their own race?
The Attorney (Jeneral hesitated a moment
and then replied, yes, he thought they had.
Chief Justice Waite said: "Then you
think that an Irishman has a right to demand
a trial before a jury of irishmen
Mr. Dovciis said, "Yes;" that while the
constitutional amendments were expressly
designed for the protection of the colored
race, yet all other races hail well the right
also to be protected under thcui. At this
expression significant glances were exchanged
by the many members of the bar present,

An I'luglish writer suius up mi exhaustive
! aiticle upon lime by detailing the advantages
of its use, thus :
"The advantages of the use of lime are
j so many and so great that it is almost impossible
to euauiei'ate the whole of them.
Their effects may be described as being
both chcmi. nl and mechanical, and as being
j exercised both oil the organic aud inorganic
J constituents of the soil. The following
i may be taken as a summary of the principal
i benefits :
j 1. A large produce of cereal crops of
! superior quality. This is especially the
i case with wheat, which becomes thinner
j skinned and yields More Hour. The peas
'grown upon iiined lands ate better boil!

| .'f. Lime eradicates the linger aud too
; disease in turnips, and gives great souud;
uess and more nutritive qualities to the

1. It gives, when applied to meadow iands,
a larger produce of nutritious grasses, aud
