CoTroN SEED EXTRACTOR North
ern papers, we notice, are describing at con-
siderable length new invention for extract
ing the seed of the cotton plant. 1t is Of the
simplest construction, composed mainly of
two cylinders, closely set together. a feeder,
and the ordinary fan. The cotton containing
tho seeds is thrown on the feeder, from which
it is taken by the cylinders, which extract the
seeds whole, the cotton being passed by the
fan into receiver. The quantity of cotton
cleaned by this machine, it is said, will far en-
ceed that by the ordinary saw gin now in use,
and third less power is required to keep it in
operation. By this mched the tcxturc and
length Of the fibre is completely preserved,
the value of cotton will be greatly enhanced,
and the intrinsic worth is increased from a
cent to cent and half per pound. 1t is
calculated that thousand pounds Of cotton
can be extracted in the same space Of time
that is required to extract twenty -four pounds
by the common snw-gin. The machine may
be- worked for ten years without requiring re-
pair.-NMionai In!chigcnccr.

TIE PACnEco SLAVE CAsE.-Thc N. Y.
Tribune gives the following statements Of tho
facts upon which the Pacheco claim is found
cd:
"Early in the progress Of the Florida War
upon the Sem;nolce, Major Dade hired of Pa
chcco at ss23 per month, his slave Lewis to
guide through the country of the hostile
savagcs Tho expedition which Major Datle
commanded Lewis was negro of remark
able abilities, spoke four languages fluently,
and it would seem was Il secret confederate
and spy of The Indians Mt tho time. When a.
bout hall way 10 its destination, the expedition
was suddenly attacked by the Indians and al
most entirely destroyed, hardly man cscap-
ing. The negro was no more heard Of until
near the close OF tic war, when he came iE
among band OF Scmnoies who surrendered,
finding longer resistance impossible. lie
was how claimed by his old master but (wl,e-
thcr in accordance with the teams Of capitu-
laton or otherwise does rot appear) Gen, Jcs-

WANT OF FREsH Ala-iIon Horace
Mann, alIudmg to i'll ventilated sclooI-roons,
remarks as follows:
"To put children on short allowance of
fresh air, is as foolish as it would have been
for Noah during the deluge, to put his family
on short allowance of water. Since God
has poured out an atmosphere fifty miles
deep, it is enough to make ,niscr weep, to
see our children stintcd in breathing"
