This law is a decided innovation in this country, but has al way? been in operation in England, France and Ger? many, and Other foreign count: les.

The Mason Cylinder Gin. Mr. R. Rivers Lawton, wbo plants the Cravat place, near Otranto, has one of the Mason Cylinder gins at his gin? nery. He says that there is no ques? tion that the lint turned out is of a much superior quality to that turned ! out by a saw gin. lie says that less j power is required to ran the Mason j Gin. and he thinks that there is not any I question that the Mason cylinders as j now constructed are thoroughly dara I ble. Up to a few days ago Mr. Law? ton was cf the opinion that the Mason Giu did not clean the seed quite so weil ? as the saw gin, but he does not think so now. In a test by ginning 3?0 pounds of seed cotton on it, and the same amount on a saw gin, the yield was five per cent, in favor of the Mason gin. --gp *? A Wonderful Well. One of the most remarkable of the wonderful things of which Pittsburg ? boasts is the combination well that has been struck at tho cracker factory of S. S. Marvin & Co. It produces atone and the sante time cold water as pure and sweet as the dew that falls from Heaven, salt water as briny as old ocean's waves, and a flow of gas that when ignited illuminates the entire sar rounding. The well was drilled some time ago, Mr. Marviu's idea being to get a supply of pure cold water for use in bis bakery in the summer and dur? ing flood times, when the city water is j not desirable. At one hundred feet thc i fresh water was struck, and at two hun I dred feet the sah water and gas were ! found. Two casings were inserted, one for the salt water and gas, the other for [ the fresh water : and now, when the j engine is started and the gas lighted, j I spectators behold the wonderful sight of fresh water, salt water and fire comiDg oat cf one well at the same. A Tennessee Husband, j The wife of old Jespersou Baleh, of Coffee county, Tennessee, was arrested cn a charge of having stolen a lot of silverware, writes Opie Read ia the Aakansaw Traveler. Balch, though not a man of public affairs, is well known in the county, and the trial at? tracted many spectators. While the prosecuting attorney was delivering his speech, Baleh arose and said : 'Jedge, I wash you would sorter button up the mouth nv these here proceeding till I make er few remarks.' 'If you have anything to say, say it, Mr Baich/ the sympathetic judge an? swered. 'Wall, I have got sutbin' to say/ Balch replied, 'an' I hope that attention will be paid to it. I ain't got no objections to this prosecatin' attorney doia' his daty, bat wheo he gits up here an* pointedly says that my wife Stole silver spoons, v?'y, I think he's gone a little too peart in the matter. I understand these here prosecutiu' fellers patty wei!, an' I know that they believe-ur let cn like they do-that everybody that's arrested is guilty as charged in the indictment.

Now, sir (addressing j thc prosecuting attorney), you may go j ahead with you' cavoitiu.' The prosecuting a'torney resumed his j argumeut. 'This woman did,' he went | on, 'enter the boase of the Widow j Black, on the thirteenth day of last J monah, asu did, according to testimony, j there and then take, steal and carry ! away-' j 'Liar!' said Balch. 'Did take, steal and carry-' 'Liar!' Balch repeated. 'Your Honor/ said the attorney. 'I I cannot proceed with this case if you i grant this man so discourteous a pr?vi- i lege.' ^ j 'Mr. Balch/ the judge remarked, j 'you mast not ase such language in j this Louse. I deeply sympathize with j you, kuowiug that you are greatly dis- j tressed, bat I cannot permit you to j interfere with thc course of the trial.' j 'Bat, jedge, ja=t think er mioit.

The acceptance of the Clemson Col? lege bequest begin* very much like the re-establishing of the State University. At first the Trustees asked fer very little. They were exceedingly modest in their requests, but as the years rolled by they became bolder in their dsmands and in a few years the Univer? sity will require a hundred thousand cV.lars besides the land scrip and Hatah fund. The Clemson College starts out the same way. A mere pittance is asked, but when the will is sastaiued aud the College started in earnest, the demands will increase and it will net be many years until the interests of all the institutions are pooled and their friends can get anything they ask for.
