G^mbotta's proclam?t ton to tbe French
people is spirited. Uolike Hago, he
talks of possibilities. Gambetta is one
of the risiog yoong men of France,
and, as ono of the leading spirits of the
Republic, baa come ont of Puris entrust?
ed with the ministry of war, and, it is
said, is ulreudy very active in the con?
centration of tho scattered voluutcers,
and will organize a formidable army, cal?
culated to give* serious trouble to the
Prussians. He gives tho French nu en?
couraging account of the situation with?
in their beleaguered capital, and, if half
ho says of it bo true, Paris is able to
withstand the siege for a loug time to
come, if shu don't oven assume the of?
fensive sud drive the Prussians away
from her walls.

OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL,
Columbia, S. C., Octobor 15, 1S70.
MAJ. E. W. SEIDELS, Chairman Execu?
tive Committee Union Reform Party,
Columbia, S. C.
DEAR SIR: Yours of the 10th instant,
calling my attention to the provision of
tho election law of 1870, which prescribes
the duty of managers of the elections in
administering oaths to the voters, aud
asking my coostructiou of the samo, has
been considered.
The laugungo of tho Act is as follows:
"The managers shall admiuister to each
person offering to voto au oath that they
are qualified to vote at this election, ac?
cording to the Constitution of this State,
and that they have not voted during this
election."
This lau guage can hardly admit of
doubt, and I am of thc opinion that the
oath must be administered to all offering
to vote.
I see tliu forco of your suggestion that
this will result iu some precincts in de?
priving persons of tho privilege of voting,
for want of timo to administer the oath.
I eau only say that I think it will be per?
fectly lawful for tho managers to admin?
ister the oath by squads, iu caso no chal?
lenges ave made, and tho managers have
DO cause to doubt tho right of tho par?
ties to vote. In tho latter cases, the
oath may bo administered to each sepa?
rately, if desired. In this way I think
sufficient time will bo found to allow all
to vote. Yours, very respectfully,
D. H. CHAMBERLAIN:,
Attorney-Genorul.

lt is strange how sensitivo soino men
are. They will get drunk, rave about the
streets, yelling like savuges, go homo

out of doors, being so proud of their
achievement as to make tho neighbors
conscious of Ibo faot; pay a lino before

selves as notorious as possible, will slido
around to tho editor and beg him, with
tears in their eyes, not to bring disgrace
to their families by mentioning that
little affair in tho paper.

COLUMBIA OIL COMPANY,-WO paid a
visit, on Friday, to tbe works of this
Company, and are. sure our readers will
||e interested in some account of an en?
terprise so extensive and of such impor?
tance to our farming interests. The de?
tails of tho establishment aro too exten?
sivo for oar limits, but, in brief, wo
were introduced to tho following busy
aud noisy scene: A large Root's safety
boiler, as iuoapable of barm as a house
cat, but as strong ns fifty horses, was
driving a powerful engine, which, by a
single broad belt, put in motion a la?
byrinth of shafting, geariug, belts, pol?
leys, shakers, elevators, conveyors, and
various pieces of machinery, fearfully
and wonderfully ruado. Over nnd under
and through and aloug and among these
contrivances there wotiud a zigzag path,
beginning in u hopper, where cotton
seed were being thrown with a shovel,
and ending in a funnel, where a beauti?
fully relined oil was running into a bar?
rel, having divested itself, in its intricate
journey, of tho lint, hulls and kernels of
seed, iu which nature bad stored it, and of
the gum und mucilage held in solution
by it, at various branches of tho road
where these foreign substances were
shoved off tho truck, and led away to
other uses. From tho hopper, into
which it was thrown ut the beginning of
its journey, the seed rushed through a
machine contrived with a box stomach, in
wdiicb wore arrested a varied assortment
of nails, old iron, bits of crockery, bones,
stones and gravel, which are found in
cotton seed, but would bo of no we in
tho oil, and are consequently rejected at
the first stage of the process. This di?
gester bauds the seed to the linter,
which takes off any lint adhering to tho
seed, and blows it into a sheet-iron room,
wbilo tho .?.(?ed aro passed on to a huller.
From tho huller the seed, now hulled,
but mixed with the kernels, climb up an
elevator to tho roof, and tumble nbout
in an immcusc screen until the kernels
aro separated from thc hulls, which arc
thrown out to the boiler for fuel. As
fast os they aro free from the hulls, thc
kernels hurry back and divo out of sight
between a powerful pair of rolls, but re?
appear again in a mashed condition,
climbing up to got into a large steam
chest, where they are to bo heated. Even
here, however, they do not stop, bnt aro
kept stirling around until well warmed,
when they squeeze out into a bag ready
to receive them, and the bag, rapidly
adjusted by hand, is placed in the press.
Hero there is a halt for soma minutes,
while tho oil makes its escapo under a
tremendous but silent pressure, and run?
into ii tank, after which thc pressed cake
is thrown to a mill, ground to meal and
bagged for market. Tho crude oil, aftei
being ullowed to settle, is pumped up tc
the refining tanks, and fitted for varioui
markets by dark and delicate processci
only understood by fow. We saw varioui
samples, from a rich golden yellow to i
purely colorless and sparkling oil, ai
sweet as a nut and as clear as water
Outside of the building wc saw a nov
sott of presses just arrived, and an im
meuse pile of bones, and learned tba
tho company designs extensive addition
to their works, and particularly theerec
tion of machinery to grind bone, on<
make a fertilizer of dissolved bono ant
cotton seed meal, which bas become ver;
popular at the West recently, under th
name of tho Langdon Fertilizer. Entct
prisos of this sort, giving employmen
to labor, adding to thc valuo of our prc
duclious before they are shipped abroad
and saving valuable products heretofor
thrown away, are tho great need of ou
State.

NEW TELEGRAPH LINE.-We have been
called on by Mr. Peyton Johnston, of

visits this city for the purpose of obtain?
ing subscriptions to the stock of the
company. We aro informed the wires
aro in operatiou to Richmond, Lyuch
burg, Petersburg, and in progress of
erection to Danville, which point, it is
expected to reach in nbont twenty days;
hence to continue on to this city, where
it will meet the lino under construction
from Charleston. It is to bo contiuned
on to Augusta, Savannah, Mobile and
New Orleans. This company 1ms al?
ready caused a very cousiderable reduc
tiou in tho rates of telegraphing-the*
cost of teu words to auy part of a State,
being twenty-five cents-which is mate?
rially below tho old ratep. The stock
has beeu freely taken iu other cities
being considered'a paying investment,
besides nu enterprise that all tho lutterai
cities and towns on tho great Southern
Railroad line can avail themselves of, by
subscribing a proportionable amount to
its extension. We further perceive that
Geu. Wade Hampton and Col. Wm.
Johnston, of Charlotte, aro directors in
the company-which is a guarantee ol
safety in making au iuvestmeut in the
stock of the company, which is expected
to be a profitable concern. The pub?
lished statement of the earnings of the
Western Union Telegraph Company, for
the past year, shows that the stock in an
enterprise of tho kind must pay hand?
somely.
