Patton, of Alabama, in a letter to The \ South, eays that tbe dividend paid by tbe Augusta cotton mills is over 20 per eent. a year. A cotton mill at Peters? burg, Va? pays 25 per ceut. a year. (Juo at Columbus, Ga., pays over 20 per ceut. The mills in this State do at least as well. And at this very time the New Englaud mills are struggling along with small profits, and even talk of working short time, so as to '. educe stock and improve pricee. The difference between their feeble and Biukiug condition and the vigorous nctivity of the Southern milis is. accounted for by the "five cents a ponnd" advantage which the Southern manufacturer has iu bis tilt with Now England. A Female College Professor.?Tbe feminine college nt Evumitown, Illinois, is in future to be known as the "Wo? men's College of the North-western University." A rule of the institution is that at least one of the faculty must be a woman. The first feminine pro? fessor appointed is Miss Francea Wil lafd. She occupies the chair of esthe? tics, and bas a salary for the first year of S1,S00, with assurance of an annual ad? vance for the next three years of ?200. Five ladies have been elected to the board of trustees of the university. If all Indian tribes would, between themselves, adjust their difficulties aa did tho Pawnees and Sioux, the Peace Commissioners' labor would be curtailed considerably. Tho telegraph reports the killing of about 100 Pawnees in the recent fight, with horses and arms, a lo?3 tho farmers ou the frontier can hardly regret. Bev. Dr. Meyuardio delivered an elo? quent leoturo in Greenville on Friday ovoniug last, "Ou W. Gilinore Simms." Tho audience was high'y pleased with the effort. The object was to raise funds for the erection of a monument over tbo illustrious historiau and poet. During the last year, speculators have carried out of the Arkansas Valley thousands of cattle to the farms of Illi? nois, Iowa and Missouri, for tho pur? pose of eating up tho groin raiied by the farmers thoro, which they gladly sold at twelvo and fifteen cents a bushel, Mrs. General Gaiues is residing in Memphis, Tenn., tho home of her hus? band, waiting for tho final settlement of her New Orleans claims, which have been forty-one years in litigation, and cover property worth ?30,000,000. Mrs. Koogh, a well known chiropo? dist, of Charleston, died on board tbo steamer James Adger, ou tbe 0th, and was buried at sea. A colored boy, twelve years old, was drowned on Sunday evening, tbe 10th instant, in tbo mill-pond of Mr. Jenkins, in tho upper part of Greeuvillo County. Mra. M. J. Means and Mr. B. V.

The French trorps have entered Nan? cy, and YVt.rj received with open arms, The Patrons op Husbandry?A New Social, Economic and Political Ele? ment.?The Sew York Herald publishes a lengthy report of an interview of one of its coroespoudents with Mr. Sander? son, of Washington City, relative to this new order, and comments upon it as follows: Started six years ago, it appears not to have really taken root till 1871, in which year over 100 granges were organized. Since then they bavo spread with eingnlar rapidity, particularly in the Western, North-western and South? ern States; and they now number over 5,000 granges, having a membership of 300,000, with no indication of any early check to the extension. Thus it is evi? dent that the or#er hus'-in it capabilities of exorting upon the'future course of our national policy and politics an im? portant power, not to bo ignored by those who seek popular preferment or to guide governmental action. As stated by its sponsors, the main objects of the order are to elevate the social and intellectual character and condition of our-agricultural class, und to enrich it by bringing it into direct communica? tion with manufacturers aud freighting corporations, in order to save the.farmer from the exactions of the army of mid? dle-men, whose commissions and profits go seriously enhance tho cost of all he buys, while they redace to the lowest figure bis returns for products Eold in the seaboard markets. The talisman of the order, in itsfiuuucialaspect, is cash. It seeks to teach the farmer that with cash, through its organization, he can buy far cheaper than through the village trader, who is williug to give credit, for ?which the purchaser baa to pay an enor? mous premium. It buys for him his harvesting machinery, and for his wife her sewing machine, fotj much less money thau he could procure them from agents; and for him it makes contracts with steamboat lines and railroads to bring bis grain, cotton, rice, cattle and other products to market at rates which will greatly euhauce the value of those articles to the producer. In dealing with capital its policy is diplomacy, not war. It negotiates with manufacturers aud freighters, rather* than fight them. After it has a large accumulated capital, it may mako itself felt in the construc? tion and control o( those great trunk freight railways which, firft proposed some mouths ago by the Harak^ aro now so urgeutly demanded by our leading business men as the necessary conduits through which tho life-giving currents of trade may circulate in all the length and breadth of the land, North and South, East and West, connecting all sections with each, like the arteries in the human body. By association it would relieve the farmer from the effects of isolation aud dependence upon others who live at ease on the results of his toil. A ritual, with obligations of secrecy, uppears to be used as the cement to hold the constituents of the new order in place aud give it opportu nity to crystallize and develop. For the present it protests it has no political aims. Its chief engineers at Washing? ton were in tho service of tho Geneia! Government when the order was origi? nated. Some of them still are. In some of tho Western States, whore its numbers are large, in spite of its de clured freedom from political objects, it already enters 'largely into the calcula? tions of the politicians. If its increase in tho interval between now and the next Presidential election receives no check, it is certain to largely tinge the complexion of caucuses and nominating conventions. Earlier its influence must be felt iu our legislative and Congres? sional hails. Members, sore of the sup? port of the granges, will hold old po? litical fealty less in awe, and tho power of the secret order will claim the atten? tion of tho lobbyists, who claim the ability to "Iii" matters in our manufac? tories of law. The order appears to be under the guidance of men of tact, having the ability to commend their new scheme to a large class which con? siders itself cheated by those it feeds. They wisely abstain frcm keeping an "organ." tio lo-.g as the order cenuues its operations to legitimato and worthy objects, it can be content with the notice aud criticism of the independent press. When it finds paid organs a necessity it will havo sunk to the low level of a po? litical parly. A Hand Ice Machine.?Gen. Alfred Iverson, late of the Confederate States army, the captor of Stouemau, has ob? tained letters patent for a macbino for tho manufacture of ice, which is intend? ed for introduction into every house? hold. It i3 about the size of nn ice cream freezer, aud is so constructed that it will freeze water into solid blocks of ice in ten or fifteen minutes. One of these machines will cost,?20 or $25, after the obtaining of which tho round expense of making all tho ice a family would use in a year would not perhaps sum up ?2 gross. A Little Devil.?Tho Beedsbarg (Wisconsin) Free Press omploys women exclusively. It says: "Wo huvo a calico 'foreman,' two dimity 'composi? tors,' and the sweetest littio 'devil' iu pink muslin to be found anywhere." Tho papers are talking a good deal of tho Bessemer steamship ut Hull, Eug lahdy designed to prevent eea-sickneeB. There is only one wny that can be done, and that is by never going to sea, A new cottou and hay press has been invented in New York, which, on a re? cent trial, reduced a steam packed baits of cotton from 33 inches iu size to IS. Over 1,700 news-boys went on an ex eurbion from New York last Saturday, aud, ns the Graphic says, "behaved us well ai niauy Sunday-school scholars."

The mutual exchange comprises the whole cero mony. After the ceremony the whole company advauced and feasted on bear meat and honej' for two days and nights." Lighting a Pirn at a Cost of B200, 000 and a Life.?The great fire ut Hunter's Point, L. I., is a good illus? tration of tho recklessness with which men conduct themselves amidst dangers familiar to them. A man lounging on a barge loaded with coal oil, lighted his pipe, and the flame of tho match set fire to the gases generated by the cargo. The unfortunate smoker lost his life thereby, and from his barge the flames spread to tho nearest oil works, (the Standard Oil Works,) which wero con? sumed, and before the fiery tide could be stayed, bver 8200,000 worth of pro? perty had been destroyed.

The fire is supposed the have been the work of an incendiary. A half witted lad .got aboard a loco? motive in Charleston, on Tuesday, opened the throttle-valve and started it off. Tho engineer of another locomo? tive on tho same track bad the presence of mind to start his machine iu tbe Bame direction, and thereby avoid a collision. An engine was started in persuit, aud the runaways were conght up with about fonr miles out. The boy ran off when tbe pursuers came up. We are informed that a son of Mr. Noah Sbumpert, of this County, was struck by lightning on Monday, the 4th inst.

All tbo newspapers, with one excep? tion, in Western Kentucky, oppose the project of forming a new State out of portions of Tennessee, Kentucky and Mississippi. Tho projeot iu that sec? tion is considered visonary. A startling tomb stone was erected to the memory of "Tabitha, beloved wife of Joseph Wright, Thomas Andrews, Eben Halsted, Edwin Murray and Chas.
