It believes that local-option, . itt ne worked -up- from townships to . counties and from isolated counties to associations or combinations of con? tiguous counties as has been done with such wonderful success in Georgia and ? South Carolina, is .the plan for our State. We agree in toto with the Carolinian just here.

A correspondent of the St. Louis Glt?be^Vemocrat, who spent a day and a half io the new town, called Liberal, says that the experiment is a failure ; that the town, instead of keeping pace with other towns of the same age. has fallen far behind them, and instead of being the happy, prosperous commun? ity it promised to be, is shrivelled, con? tracted torn in two by dissensions, and jn a condition where only prompt action 0a the part of its friends toward a com? plete reorganization will save it from disintegration._ _ The Revised Version of the Old Testament was handed over to the London newspapers at midnight on the 15th inst.

We had in? tended giving a semi-official summary from the London Times, but it is crowded out.

How Gun Cotton is Mad?. It is not generally tnown that there is bat one place in the United States where gun cotton is manufactured, but such ls the case. This is at the torpedo station in Newport (R. I.) harbor. In the manufacture of gun cotton tbe best cotton waste and the strongest and purest nitric and sui phuric acids are used for the explo? sive. Tho cotton waste, after it has been handpicked for the purpose of removing tbe.dirt and grit, is placed rn boiling tanks, where it is allowed to remain for four hours. It is af? terward subjected to a thorough washing and is reboiled. This opera? tion removes all oily matter and leaves the cotton harsh and stiff, lt is then dried in the rooms heated with the waste air from a drying box. After [.undergoing this treatment the cotton rolls ap into searls and bunches, and in order that the acid may - have a freer access to it it is passed through a shredder and converted into a fluffy state. Itris afterward exposed in an air-tight box for several hours to a temperature of200 degrees, which practically deprives it of all moisture. From the air-tight box it is removed to the dipping room, where there are iron troughs filled with one part nitric acid and two parts of sulphuric acid. Into those troughs the cotton is placed, one bundle at a time,, and allowed to remain about ten minutes, long enough for it to be thoroughly soaked. The- acid is hand-pressed from the cotton, which is then placed in covered earthen jars, where it remains twenty-four hours undergoing chemical transformation. In view of the fact that much heat is evolved during the chemical reaction, it is ; found necessary to place the jars in ! pots and surround them with flowing ?water which serves to keep them cool. The cotton is now nitrated and is practically gun cotton, but the acid, still mechanically held, must be wholly removed or it would be apt to quickly deteriorate and become ex? tremely dangerous. The charges, therefore, are taken one by one and placed in an acid wringer and plunged into a large tub which is . kept filled "with running water, in which a large wheel is rapidly turned in order to subject the cotton to a thorough wash? ing. This latter process is continued till-no acid is perceptible to the taste It is then subjected to a still further washing and boiling in an alkaline mixture, this being necessary to re? move every trace of acid. The cot? ton is now in long shreds and balls, which can be used or stored *vithout danger, the process of conversion and cleansing being completed, but for military use it must be put into a more compact, form. For this pur? pose the gun cotton in charges of 300 pounds ia thrown into a pulping tub, where, mixed with water, it is ground by steel cutters into a fine pulp. The^grinding and breaking up of the cellar tissue of the cotton has iBadfi r?gr^ff 9f legs dirty and it is necessary, tberefore74?-fixp?se it to frequent washing in the^pe^ching tubs, from which, after treating""^ with lime water, to make the mois? ture slightly alkaline, it is drawn up into a large iron tank, where it is fed to the molds, whick under a moderate pressure press 'the water from the pulp and trim out cylinders of cotton about eight inches high and three and a hali inches in diameter. These cylinders are then placed under a hydraulic press and exposed to a pressure of about 1,700 pounds to the sqnare inch, or about eight tons on each; The cylinders are pressed into hard cakes or disks, some two inches high and three and a half inches in diameter, with a specific gravity a little greater than water. They are then packed in boxes of fifty pounds each and kept in maga zines for general use. Gun cotton is, from its great explosive power and the conditions of safety - attached to its storage, superior to any other known explosive for naval warfare. New York Times. .

Queen Caroline, the wife of George III, was crowned in a robe of silk raised and span in the Carolinas. Fifty years ago the country was fall of excitement over the gains expected from raising silk worms on the leaves of the paper mul? berry. Both these movements to natu? ralize the industry came to nothing, without any good reason. The present one is in the bands of women, who seem to be resolved that the experiment shall have a fair chance before it is given ap again. Through many discouragements and years of trial Mrs. John Lucas, Mrs. Virginia Hayden and other pub? lic-spirited associates have? worked to open this new employment to American women.

OUR PREMIUM. Every farmer is interested in the welfare of his stock, and should have on band, for ready refereucea book describing the ailments his stock is subject to, and the remedies therefor. In consideration of this fact we bave procured for the benefit of our farmer subscribers a large number of copies of "Kendall's Treatise on the Horse," one of which %\e propose to give to every one who jjoys for his ?taper in advance: The book is one of great value, HS ^v^-^f?fl il is an index of diseases which QA^JCB^ gives the symp? toms, cause, and .^^'-Sr^fe, the best treat? ment of each. It contains a table, giving all the principal drugs used for the horse, with the ordinary dose, effects, and antidote when a poison ; also a table with an engraving of the horse's teeth at different ages of the horse; a valuable collection of recipes, and much more valuable information. Remember we GIVE this valuable work to all who pay their subscription in advance. NOTICE. THE UNDERSIGNED gives notice that those indebted to him by note, account or otherwise must settle promptly.

The Dread of MOTHERHOOD Transformed to HOPE -and JOY. .Safety and Sase -TO Suffering Woman. This invaluable pre? paration is truly a tri? umph of scientific skill and no more inestima? ble benefit was ever bestowed on the moth? ers of the world. It not only shortens the time of labor and lessens the intensity of pain, bot, better than all, it greatly diminishes the danger to life of both mother and child, and leaves the mother io a condition highly fa? vorable to speedy re? covery, and far less li? able to flooding, con? vulsions, and other alarming symptoms incident to lingering and painful labor. Its truly wonderful effica? cy in this respect enti? tles the Mothers'Friend to be ranked as one of the life-saving appli? ances given to the world by the discover-, ies of modern science. From the nature of the case it will of course be understood that we cannot publish certifi? cates concerning this remedy without wound? ing the delicacy of the writers. Yet we have hundreds of such testimonials on Ale, and no mother who bas once used it will ever again be without it in ber time of trouble. A prominent physician lately remarked to the proprietor, that if it were admissible to make public the letters we receive, the "Moth? ers' Friend would out-sell anything on the market." I, most earnestly entreat every female ex? pecting to be confinined, to use Mother's Re? lief. Coupled with this ^entreaty I will add that during a long obstetrical practice (forty four years,) I have never known it to fail to produce a safe and quick delivery. H. J. HOLMES, M.
