Southern sentinel. [volume] (Plaquemine, Parish of Iberville [La.]) 1848-1858, 1851-07-12

IMPORTANT TO PLANTERs.-A gentleman in AL
ALBANIA has invented a machine, which he has had in
successful operation for two months, and which he
alleges will plant and cultivate cotton with about
one fourth the usual labor to a man and horse, and
which does the work much heater and better than
the usual way.
1t lays off the rows, two at a time, the ridges
being made in the usual way. The machine then
opens the drill, drops the seed, and covers the
same in two drills at the same operation, doing
the work of seven or eiget hands and four horses. It
then harrows and scrapes both sides of two drills,
and then chops out at the rate of two drills at a
time. It then bars the same, and cultivates, en-
tirely breaking and stirring the ground the width
of two rows at a time, superseding nearly all the
necessity Of scraping and hoeing through the sea-
son, etc. seas -
TIL machine is worked with one horse, and only
one person is necessary to manage it-and is very
simple in its construction. Ia"

TRUE SOUTHERN INDEPENpENcE.-The Missis-
sippians are always wide awake. They can work
up and send abroad as much political enthusiasm
as any other people on earth, but they never 60
quite so far as to be carried away with it. South
ern Rights are precious, and Mississippians are
bound to have their share of them but the people
the producers, the manufacturers and the mer-
chants, recognize Southern Rights" as a grand
reality, composed Of the material of a States true
greatness, while their politicians are stamping
about the State, agonizing themselves and their
audiences about a phantom. This, from the
Natchez Courier of the I'd instant, looks well:
Messrs. Gorton e. Co. (of this city, have re-
Gently received from the Woodville (Miss)

low a price. We rejoice at every successful
effort in making the South independent in the
development of he. industry. 1t is not merely
a Legitimate source of protection to her inter
ests, but ali effiectual one besides. "Encour-
age home manufactures, develope home indus

us, whether referring to the nation, to our sec
ton, or to our State?

ONE OF THE CoRREspoNpENTs.-We received

nor of our own, being much to our taste-but
we are, nevertheless, forced to lay the letter
