Commissioner Delano has just decided that
whenever a dealer withdraws liquor from a ban-el
and replaces it by water, the barrel must be guaged,
stamped and branded again; for the reason that
the mixing of water with whiskey does not make
a dealer a rectifier. This decision does not, asyet,
apply to parties who "tako sugar in their'n."
A meeting of oitiaens of Edgefield and Lexington
counties was held on the 30th ultimo for
the purpose of discussing jhe propriety of forming
a new county of the adjoining portions of saia
counties. Resolutions were adopted favoring the
formation of a new county, and a committee of ten
citizens from Edgefield and Lexington were appointed
to petition the Legislature.
The new one dollar legal tender notes have
jus^. been issued. On the face of the notes, which
are engraved and printed at the Bureau of Engravmg
and Printing, is the head of Washington
in the centre; on the left end is a vignette of the
discovery ef land by Columbus; and on the other
end is a seal of the United States. The engraving
is of the highest order.
A French paper reports that "the most brilliant

vecoguize the Marquis de Oaux, "has signed a
splendid engagement to sing in Russia. It is
stipulated in the treaty that the diva promises?

General B. F. Butler, while coming from
Washington in a sleeping-car, was robbed of his
money, overcoat and undercoat daring a halt at
Philadelphia, Pa. He borrowed a coat of the negro
porter on the train, and, after reaching a store-house,
raised enough money to buy new garments, and
proceeded to Boston on an evening boat. He lost
about $700 in money and $3,000 or $4,000 in
checks and drafts.
Gov. Holden is emphatically putting Lis
standing army on a war footing. He is still raising

One company has been sent to the upper part of
Wake county, where they are creating much disturbance.
A company of U. S. troops (white) has

Ku Klux in that vicinity. The Raleigh Sentinel
says the people of Chapel Hill requested this protection.
Mr. Wilson of South Poiut, Gaston county,
received 12o gallons of good syrup from the cane
raised on one-tourth of an acre of land. The syrup
was made by Mr. W. R. McLean, who sent us a
specimen. Wc are glad to know that a few persons
still value the importance of the Chinese Sugar
cane. Our friend Richard Rozzcll, also informs
us that he made 120 gallons of syrup and 200 gallons
of vinegar from cane raised on an acre of

Lippincott s Maga:.inc. is authority for stating
that at the time of the first issue of greenbacks
Mr. Chase consulted, among others, with
the president of a Philadelphia bank, as to placing
some mottos upon the bills, as "in God we trust"
has been stamped upon some of the coins. After
mentioning several texts that had occutred to him,
the Secretary asked the banker's opinion. "Perhaps,"
was the reply, "the most appropriate would
be: 'Silver and gold I have none, bud such as I
have I give thee." " The project was not carried
further,
The following is Renan's description of the
personal appearance of St. Paul: "Paul had a
sickly appearance which did not, as it appears,
correspond with the greatness of his soul. He
was uglv, short, thickset and stooping, and his
broad shoulders awkwardly sustained a little bald
head. His sallow countenance was half hidden in
a thick beard; his nose was aquiline, his eyes
piercing, and hi3 black and heavy eyebrows met
across his forehead, Nor was there anything imposing
in his speech; his timid and embarrassed
air and his incorrect languagegave at first but a
poor idea of his eloquence. He Bhrewdly, however,
gloried in his exterior defects, and even drew
advantages therefrom."
Rev. Mr. Spurgoon, the well-known Baptist
preacher, used to be famous for his comic sermous
aud lectures; but increasing years and
corpulency -and a wife and children have a little
sobered him. The other day, however, he came
out in his old character. lie delivered a lecture
on bells, and provided himself with a large collection
of different kinds of bells to illustrate his subject.
Among others, there was a large alarm bell
lixed in the roof, which the reverend joker frequently
pulled. Here is one of his points "The
ringing of a bell was shown to be a striking emblem
of prayer, the rope being pulled on earth, and
the bell ringing high up in Heaven. It was to be
regretted that some people pulled the rope so
gently.'' This is the way to instil exalted ideas of
religious truths into the mind.
Some of the ideas proposed at the recent
Woman's Parliament in New York are rather
startling. A married woman ought to have a legal
right to dispose in any way she may please ox a
share of her husband's income. According to
that plan, an extravagant woman might mortgage
her husband's earnings before he received them,
and be would have no power to help himself. In
cases of profligacy, the money which properly belonged
to husband and children could be withdrawn
by the wife. Another speaker contended that
children should be allowed greater freedom?that
no article belonging to them should be touched'
I ?
1 without their consent ; Ihat any question they liked
ttr put should be answered, aria that they should
be accustomed to the idea that they are to think
and act independently: It is generally supposed
that in this country theje is not much room for
tmprbvemerit in the last-mentioned particular.

ENLARGEMENT OF THE ENQUIRER.
On the first of January next, the size of the Enquired
will be increased by the ndddftion of one
column to each page and by lengthening its columns,
so that the enlargement will be equivalent
to seven of its present columns. It will then be,
without exception, the largest paper pnnccu in tne
State. 1. ,
The increasing pressure upon our advertising
columns renders this enlargement necessary, in
order that our subscribers may have the usual variety
of reading matter. But, notwithstanding
the increase of size, there will be no increase of
price. \Ve propose to furnish our readers with as
good a paper as can be furnished for the price
anywhere. . In the management of the paper, the
same principles will be observed as have always
governed it. The prominent object will be to maintain
a high tone; courteous to all, partizan for none,
b|Ut reserving the right of a free expression of opinion
at all times and on all subjects.
In this connection we would call upon the friends
of the Enquirer to still further increase its circulation,
and tender our thanks to them for what
they have already done. While we have not relied
entirely upon the aid of friends, and believe in
helping ourselves before we ask help from Jupiter,
still we put a high, value upon such aid. By way
pf return, we promise that the more the circulation
of the Enquirer increases, the better paper
;wo will make it

Several States held general elections on the 2nd
instant. We give the results, according to telegrams
in our daily exchanges.
In New York the election was for several State
officers and a Legislature. The Democratic ticket
carried the State by about 10,000 majority, and
the Legislature is Democratic by 18 majority on
joint ballot, in x>cw jersey a .Legislature was
elected, which stands: 47 Democrats and 34 Republicans,
on joint ballot. In Massachusetts the
election was for Governor, with three candidates
in the field. Clafflin, Republican, was re-elected
by.15,000 majority, some 50,000 less than he received
at the last election. In Maryland a unanimously
Democratic, or Conservative, Legislature
was elected. The vote was small, as there was not
sufficient contest to bring out the people. In
Minnesota the Republicans elected their candidate
for Governor by at least 4,000 majority. The
Legislature is also Republican. In Wisconsin a
Republican Governor and Legislature were elected
by 10,000 majority. In Illinois the election was
for members of a Convention to alter the constitution
of the State. The Republicans have a slight
majority. In West "Virginia a Legislature was
elected, which stands: Republicans 49, Democrats
29. In Kausas, county officers were elected. We
notice returns from only two counties, both of
which gave Democratic majorities.
The voting generally was small, and the results
of the various elections are not to be considered as
evidence of party strength on either side, as no
national questions were involved, and no State
changed its political Btatus. The summing up of
the returns, however, shows a loss to the Republican
party.
STATE ITEMS.
? H. C. Brawley, Eli Cornwcll, T. M. Boulware
and Daniel G. Stinson, Magistrates in Chester
County, have been dismissed from office by
Governor Scott. The Phcvnix, from which we get
the statement, furnishes no reason for the dismissals.
'?Three gin-houses were burnt in Edgefield county
last week, with, an aggregate loss of eighty-one
bales of cotton.
? Survivors' Associations, consisting of persons
who served in the Confederate army or navy to the
close of the war, or who were honorably discharged
previously to that time, have been formed in Richland
and Spartanburg counties. A convention of
such survivors is to be held in Charleston on the
18th iustant

? Rev. W. A. Garaewcll, of the Methodist Episcopal
church, died at Spartanburg on the 30th ult.,
after a ministerial career of thirty-five years. All
the churches of the village omitted their usual afternoon
services on the Sunday following, that
their congregations might attend his funeral.
? A house on Butler's plantation, four miles from
Hamburg, which had been left iu charge of three
little girls, was burnt last Monday morning, one
of the children, six years old, being burnt to death.
? Gov. Scott has issued a lengthy proclamation,
almost amounting to a prize essay on the perils of
mob law, against certain "bands of lawless and unprincipled
men" in the county of Sumter, whom
he accuses of "prowling about at nijjht and setting
fire to the store-houses of citizens, under pretext
of suppressing the illicit trafic iu cotton." He
threatens their county with martial law. if such
proceedings are not stopped."
? The Fair grounds and buildings at Columbia
were formally turned over to the Executive Committee
of the .State Agricultural Society on Monday,
all completed and ready for occupation. Mayor
McKenzie delivered a brief address in making
the transfer, which was responded to by General
Hagood, President of the Society.

Burke's Weekly.?This model magazine for
boys and girls continues to improve as it grows
older. It is doubtful whether a paper better filled ?
to please their tastes and instruct thai-minds could
be put into the hands of youth; for it is all that it
claims to be?"An Illustrated Journal oflnstruc- ;
tion and Entertainment." We regret to learn :
that it is not supported as it should be fcjy thehoys
and girls of the South. But this fault is chargeable
rather to parents than children, and we think ,
they are to blame in the matter. There is man/ J
I a father who eheerfullv snends for thd amusement .
of his children ten times what Bui-lee's Wceftly ,
would cost, and yet he could uot givo them any
little gift which would bring with it more real and

THE OIL CAKE QUESTION.
Editor Vorkvillc Enquirer .?la your issue of the
28th ultimo, your Union correspondent "P."asks,
ff?** ?? . .t i. a__ i ti.
"Will it pay tnc up-counwy lanner to seuu ms
cotton seed to the Colombia Oil Mill?" and he
proceeds to take the case of a farmer living twelve ^
miles from the Depot, and makes figures answer
the question in the negative. I beg leave to point
out some important errors in his figures. ?
1st. He values cotton seed on the plantation, <
twelve miles from the Depot, at five-sixths of a cent
a pound. Now its only value there is as manure. ]
Used in this way, forty bushels of it on an acre of t
corn, with favorable seasons, will increase the yield j
of the acre, certainly not more than, if as much as, ]
six bushels above what it would yield without the
cotton seed. This corn, standing in tJic field, is i
worth on an average,year by year, six dollars, which 1
would make the forty bushels of cotton seed worth, <
apparently, fifteen cents a bushel. But it must be ]
remembered that' this v^lue is only to be derived <
from it next year, and should be subjected to adis- t
count of certainly 10 per cent for cash value, and -\
all the contingencies to which next year's crop is j
exposed, which makes the seed worth as,manure, i
certainly not over 13J cents per bushel Kjf.thirty t
pounds. (The commercial bushel is thirty-tWp
pounds.) So we will correct "P.'s" figures in ac- 1
cordance with this estimate. .,! , t
2d. "P." charges the farmer with bags for ship- i
ping the seed, which I strike out entirely, ..as the 1
Mill advertises to furnish them, when desired, and i
the seed might be shipped loose, if more conveni- (
ent, with but little, if any, loss. i
3d. "P." charges the freight on oil cake atone '
cent a pound. The Greenville & Columbia Railroad
charges only 35 cents on one hundred pounds j
of it for a hundred miles, and less than that for i
shorter distances; and ou the other roads, not be- j
ing specifically mentioned in their tariffs-, it-will 4
probably go at fertilizer rates, which are much i
lower; so I correct his figures on this point also. 1
4th. "P." charges one-half as much for hauling <
back 792 lbs. of cake from Depot, as for hauling
to the Depot 2,400 lbs. of seed. The cake and the s
charge should certainly not exceed one-third, and j
I reduce his figures on this head accordingly.
Are not these figures fair ? There is no room to
donbt or dispute any but my estimate of the value
of cotton seed as manure, and in that I am sure
that a)ty one who has ever fried the experiment carefully
will fully endorse them, They arc derived
from the experience of many farmers, among them *
the Hon. ilobert Toombs, or lieorgia, one or the J
most scientific and successful planters in the South,
aud who recently stated to the writer, in conversation
on this very point, that he had determined, by
careful experiments, that in the most favorable circumstances,
he could not afford to give even fifteen
cents a bushel (33 lbs.) for cotton seed to use as manure.
Farmer Jones' account will, therefore, stand
thus:
FARMER JONES, Da.
To SO bushels cotton seed, (30 lbs.) at
13$ cents $10 60
" hauling 12 miles 6 00
" Freight on 792 lbs. oil cake, 100 m's. 2 77
Hauling same home 2 00
. $21 37
C*t.
Ey Cash paid by Mill at 30 cts.
per 100 lbs $ 7 20
' 792 lbs. Oil cake at 3 cts.... 23 76
$30 90
Balance in favor of J ones, 100 miles from Columbia
and 12 from Depot, on one load seed, $9.59.
But Farmer Jones's profit does not stop here, there
being two items of it still overlooked. In the 'first
place, for every dollar's worth of manure that he
formerly saved when feeding corn, he will save, according
to Tables, four dollars' worth, in the
same bulk, when feeding cotton seed. In fact, he
will still use his cotton seed as manure, for his mule
only changes it from the condition of animal food to
that of plant food, and Fa:mcr Jones can either
mix the manure in his compost heap, or, better
. 11 M V? ! 1 l._i_ 1 1
Still, Willi ills aciu super-pnospuaie, anu uiasu u j
fQr better fertilizer than he could have made out
of the raw seed. In the next place, having 792
lbs. of extra feed on hand, Farmer Jones can next
year plant one acre less of corn, put it in cotton,
and this is probably the very thing Farmer Jones
would like to do and can see his own profit in.
As to the value of the cotton seed cake to Farmer
Jones as a feed, I copy from the Report of the
Commissioner of Agriculture, Washington, 1865.
"In the albuminous or flcsh-formiug portions, cotton
seed meal far exceeds the very best English or
American linseed meal, aud we have, by repeated
experiments, proved that for the production of
milk, it is worth just about doublb corn meal,
pound for pound, and for making all kinds of animals
fat and glossy, it far exceeds all other kinds
of food.'' The last quotations of it in the London
market read: "American cotton seed cakes are
coming more into use and are now much sought
after. Forty-five dollars (gold) per ton (by the
ship-load,) would be readily paid for them."
So we hope Farmer Jones will see his way clear
to give the new cntd^prise a trial, without any danger
of ruining himself. It is certainly undertaken
with the liojfc of accomplishing public as well as c
private good, and is entitled to fair consideration. a
Even your correspondent "P." admits that he a
thinks it a great waste to throw away, every year, a
so much oil as the seed contains, and the chemi- ^
cal affinities which nature has locked up in the '
seed, organized to support animal life, and utterly a
thrown away when the seed is composted without a
being passed through the animal, are of far more C
value than the oil. And if "P." really desires, as IJ
he says, to soon see mills grinding the seed in every
county, he should certainly not attempt to discour- a
age the initial enterprise with a random show of C1
figures, which would leave Jones with a loss, even p
if he patronized a mill at his own Depot. A. e

sivil docket since our lost issue, the criminal dock- '
its having been previously disposed of. A large
lumber of cases of old debt have been settled,
lartly by the verdict of jury and partly by com pronise
effected through counsel. There was a difference
of opinion between the juries, on the subect
of scaling. One of them rendered verdicts
anging from 33J to 50 per-cent The other fail- '

DEATH OF GEORGE PEABOOY, ESt*. 1
The Atlantic cable announces the death, in Lonion,
on the evening of the 4th instant, of George i
Peabody, Esq, the eminent American philanthro- '
list. The Baltimore Sun furnishes the following
iiographical sketch of the deceased:
Mr. Peabody was born ' in Danvers, Mass., <
February 1&-, 1-795. Hewas-the son of poor-par- ,
i|strict:schcK>l?.;^Ie'Wa8 plaohdi assistant t<J. a ,
jrOcer in his native town at the age of eleven, and j
n his sixteenth year went to Newburyport as clerk ,
or his elder brother, who had opened a dry goods ,
ihop there. This establishment being burned
lown, he went with an uncle to Georgetown, D.
1, where, for the following two years, the business (
vas conducted in his name, though a minor. In
1814 he withdrew from tho business, and became (
t partner of Mr. Elisha Riggs, in the wholesale dry f
{oods trade._ Mr. Riggs furnished the necessary (
japital and intrusted tnc'management to Mr. Peaxwy.
The next year the house was removed to ]
his city. Here it attracted a large business, and (
n'1822 branch houses were established in New
L'ork and Philadelphia. Mr. Peabody's first visit
<o Europe was in 1827, going to buy goods. In i
1829, Mr. Riggs retired, and Mr. Peabody became j
senior, partner in the house. On his visits to j
Europe the State of Maryland repeatedly entrtist;d
him with important1 negotiations, which were !
nvariably conducted with success. In 1837 he (
ook up his permanent residence in England, and }
n 1843, having withdrawn from the firm of Pea- ,
iody, Riggs & Co., he established himself in ,
London as a merchant and banker. His exertions
ire said to have contributed greatly to maintainipg
he confidence in American responsibilty which had
veil nigh ftiled in the disastrous period of 1837, ind
his repeated and important favors in this reipect
to the State of Maryland were gratefully ac- i
mowlcdged, but he refused all compensation for 1
hem. In 1856-^7 he gave the sum of $300,000,
vitli a pledge to inorease it to $500,000, to found >
in institute in Baltimore (now known as the Pea- i
)ody Institute) for the promotion of science, t
iterature and the fine arts. He subsequently intreased
it to $1,000,000, and more recently added i
he sum of $400,000 in Virginia and Tennessee <
Kinds. 1
The list of his charities to benevolent and cduca- '
ional purposes, including his munificent contribuions
to institutions in his native town of Danvers,
or lodging houses for the poor ofLondon, for professorships
in Yale and other New England coleges,
and lastly, but not least, his great donation
or education in the South, reaches in the aggregate
o about ten millions of dollars. 1
The Decline in Gold.?The New York lfW<7
lilates on the "singular condition of the gold and *
Government" bond markets, and the downward
endency of both in the greenback quotations. The <
World says: "This
downward tendency of the greenback 1
irices is viewed by the heavy and shrewd holders 11
>f bonds as an evidence of an improvement in our *
Government credit, which is likely to bring our f
laper cuiTency to a specie standard before a great e
ansfi of time. While these are the views of a cer- t
am portion of the community, there are others, of
imilar high standing and influence, who favor the .
mmcdiate abolition of the legal tender act, and
he resumption of specie payments on the Califor- a
lia plan of making gold tnc standard for all prices t
.nd quoting greenbacks at adiscount. This would u
nnihilate the gold room and speculations in gold, f
,nd would relieve the nation from the evils of a a
.actuating standard for prices depreciated below ?
ho gold value. The question of resuming specie j
ayments on some plau by which.it can be done at ?
n early date, is much discussed among bankers
nd merchants. The test suit before the Supreme j
Jourt at Washington?the decision in which was I
ostponed last year?is likely to be decided in s
anuary. Tho opinion prevails with those well in- J:
jrmed, that the Court will declare the legal tender ^
ct unconstitutional, This may or may not be the
ise; but, nevertheless, it is incumbent on every p
rodent banker and merchant to prepare for the h
ventuality by getting out of debt. n
-a j
A jjorrespondent <* the Chaljeston Ncu% has
recently visited the suga? manufactory of P.j
Passmori & Co., locate? near Grienville, S. * .,
and furnisher tb that paper the subjoined sketch
ofwWTii^
-^It-was my-plcasure, -a-fsw da3rs- s!T^ce^to,Tide,
out to'the sugar manufactory works.of Messrs.
Jamfcs'Wilhelm and Dr. W. P. Passmore? located
within three miles of this place. These works are
situated upon the plantation of i?Irs. Chaplin. The
c.1ne-juice pjcoceeds from the mill through tpftes td
a wooden trodgh, from which ins itermftted'td
flow-through, stop-oookn-ioio *.?*-kper-^a 'th*
sediment tnat remains in this troug'i is or the consistency
of mud and is of the color of the cane.
This^pan is about six feet long, by three and o half
wide,' beside which there is another of the same
dimensions, under which is a fumaee keeping the
juice boiling, whilst two boys are continually skimming
offiuipuro matter. After boiling, it is then
allowed to canape into the second pan; wnere it goes

bill UU^tl UJIV/ OUUJb J^/l UbbO?J IV 4 W uuuum IVIIgiU VI
time. It next goes through pipds to a third and
last pan; in this"condition it-ib called semi-syrup,
where it'is finished. In passing through the first
and second pans it ioterc&t# one to see what unwholesome
and deleterious substances arc taken
fr<jm the embryo syrupby the- skimming; .in the
third, however, there is very little taken away.
AMther pipe carries the syrup to the sugar-house,
where it is deposited in H *t trbughs for the purpt&b
of granulation. The contrifagal mill having met
with an accident a few days previously, we aid not
see the sugar made, whioh we regretted; there wan
much syrup in-the troughs in an advanced stage of
granulation. This whole' operation required no
more than twenty minutes' time, and is exceedingly
simple and easily 'underirtpod. ' One of the young
men, engaged at the works, who, Mr. Wilhelm
said, was efficient, told me he had been employed
only a few weeks. Another feature in this work is
the excellent manner in which the cane juice ia conveyed;
po handling being done. This making of
sugar from tue sorghupi fnola#ses is a complete
and valuable success, and to khotk that this common
and necessary household article can be manufactured
cheaply here in Greenville?of material
raised on our soil, by outi own farmers?is a source
of veiy groat satisfaction; Tholesult will be a revolution
imour crops, as this will pay as well, if
not better, than cotton, or anything else. Who
would have thought that our indifferent sorghum
could be Converted, right at our doors, into sugar,
at the rate of from fiver to ten pounds ppr gallon?
Ihe quality is-equal to the best brown brought into
our market."
Important Decision.?The Supreme -Court
has recently promulgated an important decision in
regard to the validity of Confederate obligations.
We extract the following telegraphic Synopsis:
In the United States Supreme Coutt to day,- in
the case of Thorrington vs. Smyth and Hartley,
from Alabama, the decision of the coorfc' below was
reversed.and the capse remanded for a new trial.
The appeal was upop a bill in equity, for the enforcement
of a vendor's liem $myth and Hartly
purchased Thorrington's land and gave a promissnro
nntp fnr nnrt. nnumprit. Tho trfi:nflfl/^inn Vw
ourred in 1864. Without notifying circumstances,
Thorrington would be entitled to a decree for the
amount and interest. The defence pleaded that
only Confederate notes were current; that the land
was worth only $3,000 in real money; that the
contract price was $45,000, $35,000 iwnerpof jvas
actually paid in Confederate notes, and the,, note
for the remaining $10,000 was to be discharged in
the same manner, and it was claimed on this state
of facts that the vendor was entitled to no relief-ib
the United States Coiirfc /Tbra was susthinedfc?
the court below and the case dismissed. The questions
before the Sppreme Court, upou appeal, are:
First. Cata a contract for the payment oflQonfederate
notes, made during the late rebellion,, between
parties residing within the so-called Confederate
States, be enforced at all in the courts of the U.
States? Sepondi Can evidence be received to prove
that a promise expressed to be for the paymonfc of
dollars was in fact for the payment of any other
than the lawful dollarsof theUnited States? Third.
Does the evidence in the record establish the fact
that the note for ten thousand dollars was to be
paid by agreement of the parties in Confederate
notes? The first question is answered affirmatively.
The' Second question is answered >ffirinatively,
with the following remarks: "We are clearly of
opinion that such evidence must be received in respect
to such contract^ in order that justice may be
done between the partios, and that the party entitled
to be paid in these Confederate dollars can
only receive their actual value at the time and
place of the contract in lawful money of the United
States." On the third question the coUrt says:
"We do not think it neoessary to go into a detailed
examination of the evidence in the record.- It
is enough to say that it has left us, with doubt m
our minds, that the note for ten thousand dollars,
to enforce payment of which snit was brought in
the Circuit Court, was to be paid by agreement of
the parties in Confederate notes."
This decision gives validity to obligations within
the Confederacy, computing dollars at the value of
Confederate notes at the time the obligation was
incurred.
A Hard Winter Coming.?Scientific men, observant
woodmen, old hunters and other weatherwise
individuals predict that.the coming winter will
be of unusual ricor. To the West and Northwest
the beavers and prairie dogs have commenced their
preparations for frost much earlier than is their
wont; and, on the Atlantic coast, the frequent
itorms are harbingers of the wrathful cold to come.
The winter of 1859-60 was remarkably mild, only
paralleled by the winters of 1822, '28 and '34.
Since 1859-60 the years have been quite warm,
iry and clear, corresponding with a singularly light
pressure of the barometer.
. - ,
Cabinet Organs.?'The most extensive makers
)f this class of instruments in the world are the
\rason & Hamlin Organ (Jo.,- who annually proiuoe
and find demand for several times as many as
my other manufacturers. The it work stands highest,
not only in this country,, but also in Europe.
Mr. Hamlin, of this company, was the discoverer
of the art of voicingreuls, and has brought it
;o greater perfection than has yet been attained by
jthers. From this, mainly, comes the fine quality
>f tone peculiar to the Mason & Hamlin Oigaus.
But the great suicess of this Company is doubtess
owing, also, in good measure, to their rigid adherence
to certain principles. They nlake firstjlass
instruments only, and will not turn out infe ior
work qt any price,, or suffer a poor instrument
:o leave their factory; and they scu always at least
emunerative profit, printing their lowest prices,
vhich are invariable.

inco our last report, the possibility of any increase

for securing so much of tho crop as is subject
o the action of tho weather, is now tho only conlition
to be looke'd to for an accession to the yield.
There are complaints from tho Sea Island region,
n reference to the unusual number of pods which :
emain in tho liclds unopened, and considerable
.ddition to the growth, wnich were oxpected from j
his unmatured fruit, is now likely to entirely fail
s .these pods in many cases are drying up and J
