Cotton Picking,

The Pulaski Gazette an excellent
paper, by the copies one of our
notices Of Lincoln Cotton Picking,
and contrasts it with a day ) work on
the farm of A. s. Ballentiae, Esq,
near Pulaski. We have nlislaid the
paper, and 50 quote from memory
We think the Gqgefte's hl nds ave
ragged over 400 lbs. EACH Now this
locks well Ion paper. But there
were some facts connected with that
picking, which, perhaps, it would be
well enough not to overlook. Mr..
Balznt'ae's hands, on the very day
referred to, by the Gazette, com
menced work before daylight and
kept at it until after dark-during
the day they did not stop at all---re-
fresHments were brought to them in
the feld-they did not stop for din
ner- Their baskets were taken away,
when full, and they had nothing to
Go but to picE. Besides, they were
picking the snaar. l0d Cotton "a
quality which will fall from the boil,
when the stalk is shake n, 50 that a
person can pick as readily with both
ha nds as with one.
In the Lincoln picki4gs, which We
ha We given, the hands commenced at
daylight and quit at daF \ \ they had
no one to wait on the nl----thay re
moved their own baskets, when full
: at dinner, they went to the house,
and ate-nothing was brought to
them in the field, as was done at Esq
Bdleahne's. Besides, they picked
the. smqlz grcel' seed Cottona quail
ty which cings TO the boil, 50 that a
picker can pick with one hand only.
Every thing considered, LineolBi leads
yet--aB she always has done. Take
in your sign, friend Ao0ry;; Giles

Mr.. Bromham, of that place, while engaged in
particular part of his garden, and exhibited
the greatest excitement and agitation. Mr.. B.,
surprised at the conduct of the bird, followed it
to a tree in another part of the garden, where
he knew was robins nest On approaching
he found the female bird equally agitated, and
discovered young robin sitting on the fence,
and cat below ntently watching it, and wait
ing to pounce upon it, if it should fail in reach
ing the tree, in its efforts to fly. Mr.. b. drove
the cat away, when the old birds came to the
assistance of the young one, and encouraged it
to fly, which it did, and finally reached its nest
on the tree, to the great satisfaction of its
parents.
