The New Glasgow (Nova Scotia) Chronicle*
says that two frogs were found a few days ago
deeply imbedded in the. Acadia coal mines.
One cf them waa kHled, unfortunately, by the
fall of the coal. They were found in a small
cavity filled with water, in the centre of the
coal seam, 100 feet beneath the surface. The
living animal is small-siied, perfectly shaped,
and is quite lively, but at the same time ii
blind, and has no month. When pot into fresh
water it becomes insensible, and the water be?
comes covered with slime ; consequently it can
only live in water taken out of the coal mine.
It is at present in possession of Major NORTON,
American Consul at Picton.
Mr. Boss WIN*ANS, of Baltimore, now over
seventy years of age, purchased In 1861, a
farm of about seven hundred acres, along the
banks of the Psiapsoo Riv er, and about six
miles from Baltimore. His land cost him $50,
000; he added buildings at a cost of $20,
000; his fencing cost bim $3000, and he
manured at an outlay of $67,000-making the
total cost sf his estate $120,000. During the
year ending on 1st May Issi, his sales of milk
amounted to $87,680 71; of cows and calves,
in the same period, he sold $11,986 worth, and
had fifteen or twenty more animals on hand
than at the commencement of the year. He
however purchased $9098 worth of cows and
heifers during the year. At the close of the
year he had on hand two hundred and twenty
tons of bay, and his total product of hay for
the year was estimated at eighteen hundred
tons-a great average per acre. His system
of manuring tends to build up and nourish his
land, and not to impoverish it. His milk is
.old to the small grocers in Baltimore, st thirty
eenie a gallon.

CURRENT TOPICS.
Br TH s SPANISH steamer Ciudad Condal^
which arrived on the 25th, we have received later
news from Mexico. The intelligence concerning
Gen. SANTA ANNA is meagre, but it is positive
that he has been taken from Sisal to Cam
peachy, where he was received by thc people
in a very riotous manner. The General was
brought to Campeachy in a small armed launch,
and during the trip exhibited the utmost tang
froid, telling the crew stories, giving an account
of the reception he met with from the people of
Yucatan, when he went there in 182? as Com?
manding General, and his anticipations of that
which was awaiting him now. From the mo?
ment he set his foot on shore, he was surround?
ed by a turbulent and excited multitude, main?
ly composed of the lower classes, and of all
colors, who were shouting and asking for his
life in the most violent manner, and it seemed
as if the populace would succeed in selling him
to satisfy their thirst of blood. One of the
ringleaders came so near that the General was
compelled to defend himself with his fist, and
gave him a severe kick with his wooden leg, to
prevent the man from assassinating him. The
better classes did not countenance this proce?
dure, and after a while some of the Liberal offi?
cers succeeded in opening a passage to conduct
bim to the appointed prison, where he was;
placed in solitary confinement. It was feared,
however, that the populace would raise a tumult
and sacrifice SANTA ANNA to their fury, as they
did only two weeks ago Generals ESPEJO, GO
7ANTI8, AVILA and PONCE. SANTA ANNA'S life
hangs by a thread. Some important documents
were found on his person when arrested at
Sisal.
AN INTEBXSTINO experiment with an omnibus
drawn by steam on common roads has just
taken place in Paris. A small locomotive,
named the Lormenjat, of two and a half horse
power, and linked to a vehicle containing
places for twenty-six persons, left the exhibi?
tion building one afternoon, and proceeded tc
the Quai de Billy, on the opposite side of the
Seine. There Prince NAPOLEON, accompanied
by several distinguished persons, took their
seats in the omnibus, which set out along the
avenue which leads to the Place du Roi de
Rome, ascending without difficulty the declivi?
ty. On arriving at the summit of the rise, the
Vehicle set off at a speed between seven and
eight miles an hour to the Bois de Boulogne,
where it passed with the greatest facility
amid the lines of carriages along the banks of
the lakes, at that hour so greatly frequented,
?nd after describing circles within an exceed?
ingly limited space, returned to the Point de
1'Alma. Prince NAPOLEON expressed his satis?
faction to the inventor and the directors of the
I new Messageries a Vapeur Company, by which
these vehicles are to be worked throughout
France for the conveyance of passengers.
"THE Es? USU ARK just now in a ferment of
anxiety over the American fifteen-inch gun re?
cently landed there. Mathematicians are busy
at work upon it in calculating its power, and
an amusing array of algebraic expressions and
columns of figures in several papers attest the
severity of their labors. When this process
ls finished, we would suggest that the gun bel
I fired. This is an experiment that has not yeti
been tried. At Shoebnryness, they are wont
to exhaust the integral calculus before they
apply the sponge and friction-primer in the
tes ting of heavy guns. However, the fifteen- j
inch gun has already made its record inj
America. It hos been fired with a charge of
100 pounds of powder, and the solid fifteen
inch shot has been propelled with an initial |
! Telocity of 1600 feet per second. The largest
gun ever yet mounted in a British man-of-war
is the nine-inch WOOLWICH wrought iron-rifled
gun, which carries a shot weighing but 260
pounds. The fifteen-inch gun carries a shot of
nearly double this weight, and in the absolute
' power of the two guns there is almost no com
pariaon.
Tn STRUT CAR QUESTION in Mobile, be?
fore Justice LOOMIS, was on action brought by
j Estelle Lalande, a colored woman, against the
Spring Hill Railroad Company, to recover
damages for refusing to permit her as a pas?
senger to ride in their cars. The case was
tried by Justice LOOMIS, who, after a fall hear?
ing of the oas?, rendered the following de?
cision : That by the rules of the company the
colored people were excluded from all paris of J
tko cars but the outside, and were charged
half prie* therefore. The rule prescribed by
the defendants in this case, from the
proof, is necessary to the interest and main
tainance of the road, as the patronage of J
either whites or black* alone might not be suf?
ficient to support it, and as a provision is made
for all,' with different and proper rates of
charges, I think it reasonable, at least so the
owner* and proprietors think ; and by their
charter they are made the judges, as a right
incident to their property. I therefore decide
in favor of tho defendant, and enter judgment
accordingly.
'In A SPEECH recently delivered in th* French
Senate on. the fate of MAXIMILIAN, then in
! doubt, M. DUPIN asserted that the murder of j
? a prisoner of war in cold blood would, by con?
trast, redound to the honor of the French arms
in! Mexico. M. Du PI n must have a conveniently
short memory, if at the time of making this
boast he was not troubled by the recollection of I
Mexican officers butchered in cold blood under
the sanction of an order from Marshal BAZAINE
himself. The Senator also asserted that the re?
sponsibility of MAXIMILIAN'S fate rested entirely
upon the United States; but the question might
be raised whether that responsibility should
rest wholly with the United States, who com?
pelled the French to leave Mexioo, or be shared
with the Emperor, who thus left his hapless
tool in the lurch9 As to MAXIMILIAN, it is cer?
tainly hard to hold Atm responsible for the
butcheries perpetrated by the French in Mexico.
Tm LONDON CORRESPONDENT of the Phila?
delphia Inquirer remarks: "It would be the
part of wisdom, I think, if the United States
Government were to abandon all thc suits it
has commenced in this country against persons
implicated in the late rebellion, for it seems to
be the settled determination on the part of all
the English judges, let the circumstances be
what they may, to decide all questions ad?
versely to the United States, whether they are
plaintiffs or defendants. Two of these cases
hove been heard, and, as has hitherto been
the case, both were decided, on some petty
technicalities, against the United States Gov?
ernment. It may be that these British judges
are the wisest and most conscientious men in
the world, and if so I can only say that either
the United States have very bad cases or else
j very poor counsel, for the latter are always
I snubbed and the former turned out of court.
A MiLWA?KTE PAPER says that the farmers
of Wisconsin are beginning to see that hops pay
better than any other crop. In consequence
the cultivation of hops has largely increased,
and seems likely to be pushed to an extreme,
in which case, by a familiar principle of politi?
cal economy, the profit will vanish. From Kil
bourn City station 43,000 pounds of hop roots
were shipped during the last season, a quantity
sufficient to plant 1955 acres. It is estimated
that 9000 more acres will be planted with hops
this year than last. The quality of the Wis?
consin hop is claimed to be fully equal to that
of the eastern hop, although the fact is not yet
admitted by brewers.
Admiral WILKES, of the United States Navy,
has 1600 acres of land at High Shoals, N. C.,
carries on extensive iron works, employs 150
laborers, and has established a school for freed?
men, of which his wife and daughters are the
teachers. They have 150 pupils.

CHARLESTON.
MONDAY MORNING, JULY 8, 18C7.
JOB WOBK.-We have now completed our
office so as to execute, in the shortest possible
time, ALL KINDS OF JOB WORK, and we
most respectfully ask the patronage of our
..friends.
?UK CITY.-HER PAST AND FUTURE.
In the present state of political and
financial gloom, with business depressed,
and the policy with which we are to be
governed for some time to come quite un?
certain, it may not be unprofitable to in?
dulge in some reflections in reference to the
business of Charleston. In thc days of |
the Colonial Government, this city was the
seat of a prosperous trade with the mother
country, based on the exportation of rice,
indigo, tobacco, and the products of the
forests, creating a large and profitable in?
tercourse, and building up the fortunes of
some of the most distinguished names in
the State. Just before the Revolution the
exportation of rice alone had reached the
considerable amount of 70,000 barrels. At
the commencement of the struggle of 1776,
Charleston and South Carolina had cer?
tainly no special cause of dissatisfaction for
want of material success; for her commerce
was profitable and growing, and she was, in
most respects, a pet colony.
Soon after the close of the Revolution,
the introduction of the cotton plant and
the cultivation of rice in the river swamps,
particularly the former, led to a large and
remunerative foreign intercourse, and al?
though thc trade in cotton at this port did
not develop itself with the rapidity which
it did at some places having a more fertile
back country and cheap means of inter?
course with thc interior, still its growth
here may bc considered surprising, when it
is remembered that it had not fairly com?
menced until after 1800, and the exportation
of the article reached the amountof 500,000
bales, just before the last war. The
(late civil war so completely disorganized
the planting interest that the exportation
of 1865, and '66, was only about 112,000
bales and for 1866, '67 will probably reach
1170,000, but we are hopeful that during
the coming year, unless the weather should
be more disastrous than we anticipate, that
we shall have from 250,000 to 300,000
bales to send forward. The trade in lum?
ber and naval stores in the past has also
been profitable, and was growing, up to the
time of the late difficulties. Unfortunate?
ly for our city, much of the profits arising
from this considerable traffic was removed
from beyond her limits from time to time,
and it is supposed that this depletion
amounted to $40,000,000 or 850,000,000
dollars during the past half century.
This abstraction was owing to two
causes: First, the large number of our busi?
ness men who were foreigners, who, in
some instances, merely came here to obtain
wealth, and after that object was had, they
returned to their native land. Another
was the disposition, even among native
merchants, to go abroad and spend more
lavishly of their means than the occasion
might seem to require or call for. These
two causes have interfered to a g at ex?
tent with the growth of wealth here. This,
however, will measurably be correct ! in
the future by the increase of native pr?
enants, and the necessity of practit ;
economy cam?ed by increased competition.
For the future, although we look forward
to some trial and difficulties, there are
many reasons to be hopeful. Charleston
enjoys a position which, while it hos some
drawbacks, is possessed of many advan?
tages. Until the introduction of railroads,
her means of communicating with the in?
terior was of so inferior a character that,
standing as she did with only her natural
gifts, she would necessarily have been aplace
of small note, but by the use of the iron
horse, the position of affairs is materially
changed, with lines of railroad extend?
ing gradually to the most important points
in the interior, it would only seem to
require good management to secure a large
and prosperous commercial intercourse.
Occupying a central situation between
Cape Hatteras and the southern point of |
Florida, with a harbor well landlocked,
! possessing a depth and expanse of water
sufficient for the largest commercial opera?
tions, and a bar which now admits of the
passage of vessels of seventeen to eigh?
teen feet draft, and capable of further in?
crease in depth, admitting thc passage
of ships carrying from four to five
thousand bales of cotton, and which, in
consequence of the receding linc of the coast
south of Cape Hatteras, is thrown back
nearer the centre of the Great West than
any point north, a climate of unsurpassed
comfort from the 1st of October to theist

is oppressive, it is moderated by the
sea air, possessing a remarkable degree of J
general health, aud having a country at her
back of unlimited extent and after leaving
the tide water region, say from twenty-five
to thirty miles from the coast, most of it suit?
able for the abode of the white man, may

ALLENDALE, BARNWELL DISTRICT. S. C., )
March l, 1867. f
Messrs. Little d) Marshall :
GENTLEMEN : I used, during Ute past season, one of
"Ingersoll's Portable Cotton Prosees," purchased of you
last september. I have always been prejudiced in favor
of the "Screw Press," and nothing but dire necessity in?
duced me to try any other. I take pleasure, however, tn
adding my testimony in favor of Its entire adaptation to
the wants ol a cotton plantation. It bsa surpassed my
most sanguine expectations. I have packed with but
two hands, yet I prefer four-two at each lever. My
bales all weighed over 600 lbs. The first lot I sent to
market averaged 6621 os. My impression is that 600 lbs.
is about the capacity of the Press, and s greater number
of pounds subject the fodow-block to too much risk, un?
less the sides of the cotton box was Increased. It would
add greatly to the value of the Press if the cotton box
was ten inches longer. In haste, I am, very respectfully,
Your obedient servant, kc, B. W. LAWTON.
P. S. I took my Prees down and carried it some four
miles to pack tho crop of s neighbor,.who failed tj have
a "Screw" built; he was so much pleased that he has
determined to abandon the "Screw" and purchase "In?
gersoll's Press." B. W. L.

GENTLEMEN : I have Just received your letter ot Feb?
ruary 14th-upon my return to this place, after an ab?
sence of two months-and this reply may be too late for
your '.DescrJpttve Circular of Ingersoll's Cotton Press."
The Press I used in packing my cotton last year
worked admirably, packing, with ease from 600 to 626
lbs. With good active- hands to work lt, I am satisfied
that from eighteen to twenty bales might readily be
packed in a day.
This Pm-as combines the advantages Of lightness, and
I consequent portability and simplicity (being easily man?
aged bf any one of ordinary Intelligence). Great com?
pressing forco, with little motive power, and "last, but
not least," it ls worked entirely by hand, thus saving for
the farm horses the hard labor imposed upon them by
the use of the ordinary ,<Screw."
