THE NEW COTTON GIN. < a wonpf.hi'ol 1nvkntion i <>r tiib ii a.nl>l.lnu of cotton. Syiiacisf, N. Y., .1 iitie 7. This city lias | ] never aspired to lame a* a cotton raising centre, but it may ncliieve fame as tlie birthplace of n cotton roller gin which ii ?1 e-tinnl lo revolutionize the iiiunufnctnre of that great coiiimercinl pr? duct?cotton. From the day Mli Whitney invented the cotton saw gin to the present there has been a steady growth and advancement in the me. chanistfi-ts which the fabric is prepared for market* et with nil of the inventive skill displayed, the principle of the Whitney gin ia still followed. Souic live years ago Mr. J. 11. .Montague, a watohmnker and jewe'er -?- ; hv an i of Syracuse, was nuicu article that a ppearc I in I lie Scientific Am'iirun, which Inte l tbnt what was now wantud was a cotton gin which would separate the fibre from the reed without injury to the staple. There was nothing on the market except the saw gin, which wn* a barbn'oits method of handling so delicate a thing as cotton. Kor the last hundred years experiment* have hecn made without numhor, and much wealth and energy expended in the endeavor to retire n g n which would separate the seed without tearing the cotton. Mr Mon'agiic realized the need < I a gin which would da the work better and pucker, and after years of industry and study has succeeded. At titties it seemed as if there was 110 way of overcoming the dillicullivs and he would he tempted t > give it up. Hut he stuck to it. friends became interest c I in the movement, atid'whcti they recognized the merits of the in vent ion, saw there was "millions in it. ' The Montague Holler ('niton < n Coin puny was incorporated, composed of Southern capitalist-^ and men interested in the manufacture of colt 11. ? They hucksd Mr. Mont igtio and lo-d iy the machineis ready to lie placed mi the market. The working of the machine has just heen witnessed here.

Tlio Stale executive Committee ha* called a convention to meet at Columbia on the loth of Align*! to determine whether delegate* to the Jinte nominating convention o shall be elected by a primary, in accordance F with the ilr ma ml el' the 3d eeetion of the j platform of the March convention, which is t as I llows : ' [ "U'e demand that the delegates to the ' State Nominating Convention ehall he ' chosen hv primary election on he sanic day* that the other officers are nominated, nml ' thata'l the counties shall held tlieii primaries on tho same day. to wit : the la>-t Tuesday iu August of each election year. We fully endorsed both the ilemanU of the farmers' Convention for a primary ami the action of the Executive Commiltoe in calling a eonvantioii meet that demand. Our only regret is that the committee did not net sooner. Had the call for n eonvenlion been nude a mouth or si* weeks ago, much of the bitterness of the present campaign, in our opinion, would liave been avoidc I.Ilowtbo call will alVect tho action ef the convention held in (tiis county on the Ubth, Iwe are not now ub e to say.

While we are aware that u Urge nuitiherof Mr. 'I illmnii's followers now oppose the primary for State t'onventioii, Leeanss of the apparent strength of their candidates developed at the campaign meetings, we I litre good lesson for believing that there i? a strong undercurrent of feeling setting in among the calm and intelligent farmers that will demand h primary, ill nceordance with the article in the Tillman creed.

Hj iptoin Tillman lian on riveml occasions J ivn lit to denounce those members of the :atv Senate who voted again?l the census :nl reapportionment bills. We have waiteil Ch i roe whether anyone, other than ourselves, nuM give the temons for such action. We ju re unwilling longer to have such reasons ust-ited, especially in view of the leceut Wl ttark on lliat upright soldier and gentleman, "? udge I /lar, whose position necessarily farces R. im to keep silence. t The facts are as follows : The General ' tatutes of the State contained and now coniiined the general provisions for taking CI lie eeuens. About two or three days ftl leforc the close of I lie eossion of SSI a bill came over front the House to the icnate. amending in certain partieu'ars the general law, on the subject of tHe census, d< o incipally as to the rate per ^capita toj be (J aid and in otlic.t minor points. While how- w vor, it left the duty on the t iovernor of liavng an enumeration made, neither this bill 8 nor the general law appropriated any money it to enable hint to have the work done. The b bill therefore, as it parsed the House, was incomplete and would have effected no result. " t>n itii|iiiry it was ascertained that the h probable expense of a State census would t amount to soine S.Vt.tKXt or $t50,tMHh This ^ was the ultimate made by careful men. who were -apposed to be in a position to know. 1 The majority of tho Seniors, nearly till of whose counties were unaffected by the result did not feel justified in putting upon the people this heavy expense. And as the House, which was the body whose membeship was in i|iiestirn. hail not deemed it proper to tike the rcsponsibilty of making the appropriation necessary for the work. I these Senators, acting on the bill sent them | by the House, rejected it. ?-Ii.wa i-onrosental iotl would i ik* umiiiiivo 1...v. v . wt - _ lie ntlecto 1 by the census wore about equally divided- The very large majority of the Senators wore entirely disentereMcd. as it did not atleet their counties any way. A majority of these disinterested .Senators vole?l against the bill, ami by their votes it was <lcfeate<l. Iti lsSAihe nmemlment to the Constitution was proposed allowing reapportionment on the basis of the United States census of INOO ami thereafter. This was adopted by the vote of every Senator present except one, Mr. Hoynolds, of Beaufort. It wti propoMo<l ami passed as a fulfilment of the requirement <'f the Constitution providing for reapportionment, but as saving the taxpayers of the .State the heavy expense of taking the State. At tho .same Session. 1SS">. the House again sent over a bill for taking tho eeneus by the State authorities. tt.o ,*3 il.f ment to the Constitution had beou passed providing the other method for reapportionment. s* :i measure of economy to the State, the Smalt. did not feel called on t" pass this bill. There was another serious objection, to wit: Whether an extra session of the Legislature cou'd legally be called to reapportion in time for tho election in the fall of 1 MSB. This had due consideration, But that which ' determined the mallor was that another method for reapportionment had been pro. 1 vided, by which the taxpayers were saved ' some Hin or f?t>0.tMX). Tho matter then came before tho people * of the State at the general election in 1SSi>, 1 when this amendment was submitted for their decision. It was adopted by an overwhelms ing popular vote. The people of tho State ' thereby ratified and approved the notion til ' the l.egis'niitrc in substituting litis tueim " of rcnppionuicnt, and saving tlieni the It easy 1 tax and expense of taking the census hv tin St tie.
