NEWS OE THE DAT. -Gold closed in New York, yesterday, at 113c. -Cotton closed fairly active and higher at 15Jc; sales 3617 bales. -In Liverpool upland cotton closed at 7Jd sales 16,000 bales. -Some of the London critics are convinced that in the courtezan in Charles Reade's story of "A Terrible Temptation," they discover many points of resemblance to the character and career of Adah Isaacs Menken. -The Chinese temple of Quong Wau Mtier: in San Francisco was recently dedicated with imposing ceremonies. There are two '"boss Josses" at the door, each twenty feet high, and inside are seventy-five other Josses, -A loan of $150,000 has been offered to Louis Napoleon by a lady. The London Court Journal says, he can easily borrow from ?1,000, 000 to $1,500,000. The Paris papers dec?an; that the ex-Emperor has put by not less than $16.000,000; and, if that be the case, what floes he want to borrow for ? He must have money, or he could not live in the semi-princely style thai he sports at the Camden House, Chisle hurst. -An infatuated youth squandered a week's salary on a front seat and a gorgeous bouquet for Nilsson's concert in Nashville. The former he occupied, the latter he "hove" to the song? stress, who dipped her little jewel of a nose in amid its petals, shot a death-stab out of lier lustrous eyes over the top of it, and-a few hours later tossed it to the grinning apparition who strapped her bairgage. He sold it for a quarter to a friend of the'despairing giver, wlio lias since had not a moment's peace. -Tile following queer item is going the rounds : "Thomas Monroe, a fugitive slave of twelve years agone from Charleston, S. C., is now the fashionable "physician of Cairo, in Egypt. He was a tonsorial artist by avocation, and this fact-as in "the golden prime ol good Har-nm Al Raschid"-gave him so favorable a footing when he emigrated to Egypt, that he bas now not only a fine practice among the citizens th-re? but he ls. also medical adviser for the Khedive's extensive seraglio.'' -A writer in the Trinity (Texas) Journal relates that in 1850 a party of miners in the mountains of El Dorado, prospecting Irl an isolated p'ace where they were without fresh meats and vegetable food, were afflicted with scurvy. Six of the worst cases were planted In the earth up to their necks, and left alone .over night with a chew of tobacco apiece. The Tesnlf. of this attempt at earth cure might have been happy, but for the fact that in the night coyotes came along and ate off all the six heads. -The officiousness of certain newspapers in nominating General Sherman for the presi? dency has brought that ofll er out airain be? fore the Union Club of New Orleans, with the following remark : "I do not seeK any civil position whatever, and do not wish to be sus? pected of doing so. Indeed, I should post tively decline any offer of a civil or political position. I wish to devote my whole time in the future to the study of the military art, not with the view of destroyluc, but as a means of promoting the good of all-even the lowest classes of our citizens." -The usually well-informed New Yofk cor? respondent of the Philadelphia Ledger has the following concerning a recent item of cable news : "The report by cable to-day that "tilist ments are going on in the United States io the Interest of the ex-Emperor Napoleon is fully credited by parties who are iq a position to know. The enlistments, it is said, are not cf the 'rank and file,' but of men who are quali? fied from experience in the late rebellion here to mtffce good soldiers there. Northern men as well as Southerners are among them, with now and tjien a bushwhacker who has seen oervice under the Fenian and free Cuban flags Ostend ls said to bethe place at .which they have been instructed to report." -General B. F. Butler delivered a lecture I 1 "before the negroes of Boston Monday night. | ' His address was simply a bid for negro support when he is ready to compete for the Radical nomination for President. Ho eulogized Grant and the Radical party; congratulated his audi- | ' ence on the improved prospects of the party; urged lhe necessity ol Ku-Klux legislation, and abused the Democracy with all thai viru? lence and reckless carelessness about the truth for which Ben Butler is famed. The bulk of his iddress, however, was an absurd panegyric on the negro of the South, wiio was pronounced to be superior in intelligence and bravery to the while of the same section. At the conclusion of the address. Butler indulged in a malignant appeal to the negroes of the South to rise against the whites on aay im? aginary pretexts, and kindle a war of races. -A London letter to the Chicago Journal says : "Much curiosity is being felt as to the contents of . ""ermin casket which was pre? sented by the iate Duke of Wellington to his godson, Prince Arthur, when he was twelve years old, with strict injunctions that lt should not be opened until his twenty-first birthday. The casket was closely sealed, and has ever since remained inviolate in Hie custody ol tile Queen's bankers. Prince Arthur will attain his majority on the approaching 1st ol May. jvheii it is understood the seals will be broken. Somebody is probably in the secret, bul il so St has never beeu divulged. As a maller of cours-', in this betting country, bets are high as to the nature of its contents, and il is a fair and Interesting subject of curiosity and spec? ulation. I suspect that when the mysterious casket is opened it will be found to contain the information that Prince arthur will find subject io his order, at some banking-house, a considerable sum of money, which, hus oeeu accumulating during the lost uventy years. Bul this is only a guess, and one guess is as good as another. You will doubtless receive the solution ol the mystery shortly after this letter reaches you." -Wendell Phillips made a particularly violent speech before the Labor Reform League, in New York, on Tuesday. He deali chiefly with the Soulhern difficulty on the labor question. "There ls still," he said, "a stau: of war with the South. General Butler, .unawed by gam? blers and rebel rings in New Orleans, execut? ed Mumford. Let General Grant lay hands upon the leaders in the South, men who count their acres by thousands, and are instigators of assasinations; let the President follow But? ler's plan, and you will never hear ol Ku-Klux again. [Applause.] Lei the cowards of Caro? lina know that the President is terribly in earnest, and there will be an end to Ku Klux.' ID reply te^ voice asking, "What about carpet-baggers ?" he said : "The ?South is ignorant, besotted, poor and and chilled by departing barbarism, yet Urey repel Northerners who go down there with the very tiing they want, brains and money, but." the sly Northerner remains to squeeze the political power out of those pitiful babies. [Laughter.] If the North will have to take up arms again, they will stop at no constitu? tional distinction or State lines, but put the South uncer the heel ot military despotism." On the question of labor he advised the Re? publicans to adopt labor reform into thtlr platform. He spoke of corrupt judges and city officials, and the lessons the cowardly Shylocks, who dip their hands into, private fortunes of the city, are teaching the men with bludgeons, and said the next time the Bowery boys have a riot they may take it into their head not to hang negroes to lamp-posts, but indulge in. millionaires. Abont Cotton Seed. Many o? our cotton planting readers luve doubtless heard, in one way or another, that cotton s&ed can be turned to account in other ways be>ide3 usiug it for manure. They have hei.rd more or less of cotton-seed oil. There is, however, we believe, but little ac? curate information OD the subject among our people generally. A few facts on cotton seed and its use will, therefore, not be unac? ceptable to the readers of THE NEWS. It has long been known that cotton seed was rich in oleagenous matter, and oil has been pressed from this seed for a number of years. In 1860, about S200.000 was invest, ed in its manufacture, in the United States. Now th(i capital used in the production of cotton-seed oil is estimated at S2,000,000; of which amount about one-fourth is em? ployed in the City of New York. In New Orleans about $300,000 is thus used; about S250,00(' in Memphis; and smaller amounts in St. Louis, Mobile, Vicksburg, Galveston, Columbia, and other cities through tho South. Of the extent of this new branch of industry some idea may be formed, when we state that 17,103 bags of seed (averaging 100 lbs.] were received in New York during the first three months of 1870. A large amount ?3 exported to England, where it has become a regular mercantile article quoted daily at the Produce Exchange, and we see from the Brokers' circulars that the demand lhere, "either for the oil or the raw materia:-thc seed-is absolutely unlimited. The ootton seed, as it comes from the gin, ha? considerable lint on it and a tough, close-filiing bull. Previous to the war this hull was seldom taken offend the lint never; hence there was a considerable loss of oil and an inferior cake produced. The manu? facture at present is conducted as follows: The 3eed, as it come3 from the plantation, is first passed through a linter, thence di? rectly ii lo tho hulling machine. When sep? arated from the hulls the kernels are ground and praised to extract the oil. The presses used are the improved hydraulic presses, usually of three columns or series of cases of five each. The cake, after pressure, is usually shipped in its thin, oblong shape, but is grouud to meal before use. This pressim; produces the crude oil. Its'qua lit}', value and color are due entirely to the freshness of the seed, the amount of heat put on the kernels previous to and during pressure; also, care in operation and clean? ing of bags, Atc. There isa French process, patented in this country, in which the oil 13 extracted from the seed by maceration in bisulphide of car? bon or light hydro-carbons. It has not yet been operated here on a large scale, owing . to the enormous rates asked hythe paten lee; but. it is said a linn is this year to erect works at New Orleans to work under his for? mula. The New York Tribune, in a recent urticle, gives the following estimate of the machinery for a factory, furnished by an expert: "One press of three tiers ol cases (5 each,) usual size, with ram, bags, squeezers, seed healer, hydraulic pump, pipe and connections, driving shafts and gear, seed rollers, stone Brushers with gearing, clarifier, revolving screen, elevators and power to drive-$12,000. Size and cost of building will vary with amount jf work to be done. Plenty of airy room is accessary for storing seed, and il more than Dne press is u>ed, still more room ; in fact, in di suchj, operations lt is better to have too much than too little room. A building 40x60 somali enough, and 60x100 is better, and at east three stories high, wilh a cellar. The prices of machinery vary- somewhat, as the price of iron and actual? operations will dc reiop seme ihtngs not enumerated above, bul it is fur to say one might start on a small scale with $25.000, though it would be besl to nave $10,000 more in reserve for the purchase sf seed. "The above machinery will do a business of about :>>Q gallons ot oil per 24 working hours. This would require a consumption of 10 tons of seed at 35 gallons per ton. The yield of oil varies from .13 to 40 gallons to the lon ol'rough seed of 2000 lbs. 10 ton? of seed cost at Memphis or Or? leans.$120 Operating 24 hours, about.; 2ft Interest, say. 10 $l->n ::j ton; ot cake. Memphis price.$ 73 300 pounds lint. oo U3U gul ons of oil. 73 ii??? Profits. suit) "These estimates are from Ute actual opera? tions ol a well-munaged factory, while We have added sotnelbing to their labor account and C isl of seel, and have put the price of cake and ol' lower Utan the uvera-.;? up lo this date. The factory rims three presses ol'three sc'ls of squeezers, live each, and in niue days of their operations, ol' which we hav? uole, they con? sumed 235 lons ol' seed, which yielded S442 gaiions ol oil aud 621 lons of cake, and their labor expenses were bul lillie more Mian the sum we have Indicated for working one. press! The seed should be purchased bel ween October and February, and must be protected from the weather, otherwise it will heat (if piled in large heaps) and spoil. Rrtining and bleach? ing the ?iii is a distinct business, involving chemical knowledge and processes. Some of tile manufacturers South reline their oil, but the gr .'aler part ol' this branch of the business is done North, and the product is better, from reason, perhaps, ol' greater care, more pened apparatus, A'C." Cotton-seed oil is chemically a neutral oil, combines readily with all oilier oili?, und can ha made to take the properties of any of Umm. It is not of itself a drt ing oil, yet it may be made so with ease: relined with care, it is au excellent lubricator, and is su perio? to rape seed ?is a horning oil-nearly equal to sperm-whilo as u salad oil it is used in large quantities aud universally ap? proved. As a soap-stock its consumption is daily increasing, and from it ail grades, from the oQiiiiou yellow to the liuesL toilet, can be made. Its fault is a non-affinity for large quantities of rosin; hence Boajj made from it is usually pure, and we know has a most pleasant effect on the skin. * It is to be regretted that cotton-seed oil has not as yet established a position on its own merits; and this is solely due to the fact tbal it is more profitable to the dealer, when used in combination with.other substances, more highly priced. Its chief use, therefore, thus far, has been in adulteration of other oils. It is well known to our core intelli? gent dealers that it is now all but impossible to obtain a pure article' of olive oil; cotton seed and a little "doctoring" readily produ? cing any brand of "Nice" oil. This, how? ever, is but temporary. The article is tod important in the list of the world's products to retain long such a subordinate and, we may say, illegitimate position. The raw material, our readers need not be . informed, is all but inexhaustible. A bale of 400 pounds represents about 800 pounds of seed; 4,000,000 of bales, therefore, (an average crop, we may safely assume, for the next few years,) the enormous quantity of 3,200,000,000 pounds of seed. But suppos? ing that only one-half this quantity will be brought'to market, we have 800,000 jons of seed, which would yield 2^,000,000 gall-ns of crude oil, 400,000 tons of cake, and about 24,000,000 pounds of lint, thus adding to the wealth of the South about $26,000,000 an? nually; the product, be it remembered, of an article which is now all but wasted. The lint is used by the paper-makers for batting. The hulls are usually burned under the boil? ers, which furnish steam for the factory, and their ashes sold to the farmers. Some may inquire: Will there be a demand for all thi3 oil? We can only reply that the demand for these articles is constantly in? creasing; the whale fishery aud lard oil pro? duct is constantly decreasing. The supply mu3t come from some source. The one is inexhaustible, perpetual and perennial. Eleven years ago, says the New York i Tribwie, we well remember visiting lhe extensive and isolated works of the New York Kerosene Company, and many re? member their struggle to get the oil intro? duced. Look, to-day, at the millions of dollars of capital inv?sted'ia petroleum wells and refineries. And, too, wp exported in 1858-59 only 1071 gallons of lard oil; in 18G2-G3 it had Increased lo 1,775,957 gal? lons, and though not increasing so rapidly since, the export demand for all varieties of oil is becomiug greater every year. The Late Judge Platt. In the Supreme Court of the State, on the 9th inst., the death of Judge Platt was an? nounced by Attorney-Goneral Chamberlain, who, after a feeling tribute to the worth of the deceased, offered the usual resolutions of respect and condolence. Mr. Treadwell, the senior member of the bar at the State capital, seconded the resolutions in appro? priate v-urds. Chief Justice Moses respond? ed, and after ordering the resolutions to be entered on the minutes, adjourned the court as a mark of respect. ?pmai Polices.
