Tin: wheels, which are of iron ami are live feet in diameter, with lims.-ix inches wide, are provided at th * hubs with cogwheels. To these are a'tache 1 chain bauds which at the other cud are attached to gearing connected with the picking and brushing machinery. The movement of the largo wheels upon the ground produc< s the power by which the picking and brushing machinery is op- riled. The picking inachiucry, which of course is the most iutportunt put of the contrivance, is compartlively simple yet extremely ingenious. A largo number of circular steel discs with Iiceuli irv constructed teeth are attached at li^ht angles to iron shafts. Those shafts run parallel to each other, and when in wok iiio position ato adjusted at an an*;lo ofl'?rtyfivc decrees to the ground, t!i" lower end being in tlio direction of tlie motion nf ilie iii:k*]iino.

These wooden dices are also eireul ir in form with rounded perimeters and come up close to the steel dices on each side with just enough room for the steel diecs to move I reedy. The teeth ol' the steel dines are so constructed that the heel of one tooth protects the point of the it her. In olhel" Words the points ol the teeth are depressed slightly In low tile h-Vel of the pT" iuteter. Iiy this arrangement the discs are I'd'eetlv smooth to tlm touch and m iv even I .

The Democratic party is the soul of action. It his confidence in man and an abiding reliance ei his high destiny. It seeks the largest liberty, the greatest good Its object is to build up the great interests of the many to the least detriment of the few. It remembers the past without neglecting the present. It establishes the present without failing to provide for the fu'ure It cares for the weak and permit- no injus lice to the strong. It is the pioueer of humanity au<l the conservator of nations. It I tils only when it ceases to bo true- to itself. 'Ao recall here the essential principles of Democratic faith as declared by Thomas .Jefferson eighty years age: ''lv|ual and exact justice to all uien, of whatever state or persuasion, religious or political ; peace, commerce, and honest friendship w ith alt nations, entangling alliances with none; the support of the State < iovcrumcnts in all their rights, as the most competent administrations for our domestic concerns, and the surest bulwarks against anti Republican tendencies j the preservation id' the (icucral tiovernmcut in its whole Constitutional vigor as the sheet-anchor of ??ur peace at liotnu and satety auroau ; a jealous care of the right of election by the people, a tnihl anil sale corrective of abuses whiehare lopped by the sword of revolution where peaceable i\ medics are unproviiled ; absolute ae<|Uie.soeiiee in the decisions of the majority?the vital principle of republics. from which there is no appeal but to force, the vital principle and immediate par?nt of despotism; a well-disciplined militia, our best reliance in peace and for the lir.-i moments of war, till regulars may relieve them ; the supremacy of the civil over tiie military authority ; economy in the public expense, that labor may bo lightly burdened ; the holiest payment of our dob s and sacred preservation of the public faith ; c ii coti ra o * one ii t ,,( agriculture anil of commerce. as >ts handmaid ; the dill'usioii of information, and arraignment ?f u'l abuses at tin; bar of the public reason ; freedom ot religion ; freedom of the press ; and freedom of person under the protection of the habeas corpus ; and trial by juries impartially selected. These principles form the blight constellation which has uone before us and guided our steps through an age of revolution an 1 reformation. The wi.-d en of our sages and blood of our heroes have been devoted to their attainment. Tliey should be the creed of our political faitli, the text of civil instruction, the touchstone by which to try the services of those wo trust ; ami snotim c wutiuor iroin mom in in >iiicii ts of orror or of alarm, lot us liaston torotraco our stops and t>> regain tlio road which alone leads to peace, liberty and | safety." A iii- re forcible cxp ?siti-m of Democratic principles is no wlioro t>? be fjuud. Whonever ami wherever they have been the guide of th party thepartyhasbeeii successful, and its success has been honorable to itsclfaud useful ami advantageous to the country. In the judgment of the State couiinittcc, the active organization of the party in this State should he continued, in order that the Democratic clubs may be in lull vigor when the tiim* .-hail come for entering upon a new political campaign. The Democratic clubs can now be made politioial schools, so to speak, in which the principles of the Democratic party in their practical application shall 1 ? taught and explained. A generation of Smith t'ai olinians has grown up since the secession of this State, ail 1 those who i... i i _ I;..l.? ..a ?i... the w if was fired i:i Charleston Harbor are ii"W of full ago ami eapahlc of easting their Vote at p'pulat elections. They have grown tip in the midst of turmoil and excitement. W ar was their cradle, reconstruction their nnr>ery, revolution the attendant of their early youth. For then'., as tor many who are older, the n unc of Democrat has no special significance, beyond its local and limited meaning as the d< signot; .(i of those who possess the intelli, gcucc. tlm experience and the property in the State. It is indispensable to the Welfare ot t!.e Democratic party in South Carolina ami a paramount necessity for the maintenance of good government, that the young people of the State, and the older tin n besides, shall become fauiilar with the Democratic faith as taught by the Fathers . of the llepuhlic. and shall see in the Democratic party sninething mnicthau an agency for previ tiling misrule and for securing decent government in the State. The whole people should he made to understand that only by the assertion and supremacy ol Democrat ic principles can the 1 nited States he maintained as the llepuhlic of Kcpublics, and that only through and by the Democratic party, which has been IVotu the beginning the party of the people, can republican institutions in (It ir lull \ igor and efficiency he maintained .and preserved. There are many complex ipteslions that must he decided by th; people at the next election and the next, and it is needful that it. , ..t..at j .... ,.|>oii lint., ,i?iitirnuoly and intelligently.
