Ne,p Cotton Press.-We have been in
vited 10 examine, al tho store of >. IL.
Fisk, Esq. Of this town, new Cotton
Press. which for neatness, compaciness
and beauty Of operation. exceed any thing
we have yet seen. II is the invention Of
q Mr.. Parker, Of Saccarappa. Maine, and
itmay fairly be said that il needs GO i'm
proyement or alteration. 1t applies u
pressure of more than 100 tons 10 bale
of cotton, without The application Of any
other power than that ofthc hand. and the
operation OF pressing isperlormed without
the least noise or Inconvenience.
The press is a species of rectangular
frame, strongly reinforced with iron, " bch
res,s on one floor of the store and extends
through an aperture fitted 10 receive II in
the floor above. Below are two doors on
horizontal hinges, which being closed, form
Two sides Of the box, or space into which
the bale is finally compressed. Here the
bageipg 10 receive the cotton is placed, ,and
from theucc il is taken, The doors being O.
pened. This box or rectangular space,
extends ND to the second floor, and The
whole space thus formed, is filed with
cotton prior I, compression. The efficient
power is composed Of two uPris6, wrought
iron screws. moved by an appropriate sys-
tenn of gearing, to which motion is com
municaied by TWO crauks. The frs,
moyemen, of the impsessing plate under
these screws is comparatively rapid -
When, however. greater power is wan
ted, a new system Of wheels is brought
into play by simple side movement OF
the crank or axis, where the process goes
on more slowly. Some fifteen bales Of
cotton per day can be packed in 'his way,
wi,hou. the use Of siean or wafer power.
The packages formed by j. average near
400 lbs. each. and eau easily DC increased
10 450 to 500 pounds. They are by Jar

Culiirate small tirms.-Thc Whining.
Ton (N. c. Chronicle has the following
very sensible remarks OH this subject,
which we commend TO the attention Of our
plnnlcrs:
There has lately been considerable cmi-
grafton from New Yurk. to Virginia most.
" of ngricui,urisis, who find their account
in selling i1eir own fields for liigh price
and buying Virginia lands which have be.
come cheap solely from bad hushandry.
Many Of The farmers Of Du,chcss county,
New Y orb, have sold their farms for one
hundred dollars per acre, and purchased
farms IN Virginia 20; three or four dollars
ger acre, which they expect 10 make in n
shor. time as valuable as the lands they
soi.
"Ouc nodc." snys tho Balimcye Amer
lean, ..by which The Northern farmers ian
prove the WORKOUT lands in Virsinia is TO
mako slnoil farms. The system OF large
plantations iu the Southern Sra'es has re-
suited III delerioralipg whole tracts and
districts Of county,. Bad .il!1ss is an al
most inevitable consequence Of SUCH, Il
system. The farmer or planter who ca
dcavors TO make up for the loss Of fertility
in his lands by increasing The number o;
his acres, only ex'ends the evil which he
would escape from. and addsio the amoun,
Of his labor without securing correspond.
Ing return Of profit"
There are truths hero laid down which
Southern farmers do not give proper heed
to. When will they learn 10 cultivate
less land and cultivate il well? The sys.
ten now generally pursued is abou, as
wise as would be that Of schooln,as,e,
who should attempt to teach one hundred
boys himself, Or the scholar who shoult
undertake 10 learn every thing. We be
lievc our farmers begin to see Ssl,a evil
The sooner they set about correcting It III,
better for themselves and the country.
