CoTToN PICKED BY MACHINERY-One of
the greatest difficulties experienced by plan
tiers, in the culture of cotton, has been tho
time and labour required to gather the full
amount raised, as it is well known that many
more hands are necessary to pick the cron
than is required to plant and cultivate 1T
This difficulty of gathering all the cron
seems TO have been obviated by a new and
novel machine, which is; claimed by the in
ventor, Mr.. Howe, to pick at least three times
as fast as by hand, thus securing to the plan
ter his full crop in much less time and in
better order than before and he also claims
that, by this mode of picking, tile market
value of the cotton is enhanced several ner
cent.
The machine is a very simple, light piece
of mechanism, weighing about two pounds
The part which gathers the cotter is a small
steel chain, SO ingeniously constructed that
it may be twisted in dozens of parts and as
speedily put together without injury. This
chain gatherer or picker of the cotton passes
through hollow tube. one end of which
cmpties in the customary picking-bag, while
the other is passed from boil to boil by the
hand with great rapididity. The Gotten is
freed from the gatherer by novel process
The motive power of the machine is obtained
by simple continuance MIDWAY of the tube
The chain-gatherer has Discriminating
power, foreign substances, leaves and trash
being rejected, but the cotton, to use an army
phrase. is gobbled up with amazing quick.

HEYL AND BALEYs PATENT ELECTRIC
GAS LIGHTER-Mr. John A Heyl, an in
geniuS German gentleman of this city. has
been, for the last two years, applying his in
genuity to the devising Of a method of turn
ing on the gas of all the street lamps in Bos-
ton; or any other city. large or small. and
lighting them all simultaneously. Here ;s
obviously chance to save, not only a prear
deal of labor, but also a great deal of gas
both expensive things in these DAYS. Mr.
Heyl has no doubt that he has succeeded
after much pains, in making machine. that
will accomplish his object. The lighting of
lamps by electricity is no new thing, but the
original feature in Mr.. Heyl's invention is a
stopcock combined with an electric battery
by means of which the operator at the central
station Can turn the gas off and on at his pleas
ure hitting it at the same time with the electric
battery. In this way, from some central
point like the City Hall, for instance, in this
city, person having the matter in charq.
can almost instantaneously, by means of Mr..
Heyl's apparatus. illuminate the CITY to cir
conference, lighting every street lamp, or he
can as quickly turn of. the gas in each lamp.
1t will be seen that the stopcoeE is the ptin
cipie feature in Mr., Heyls apparatus 1t is
an entirely original conception with him:
Any number of these stopcocks can be oper-
ated at the same time, by simple piece of
platina wire. By this mode every gas lamp
can be lighted in the city of Boston in five
minutes or can be turned on and off sepa
rately. In case the wind blows the gas out.
1t will ignite again of its own accord from
the heat, which is retained in theiwires with
out any electricity whatever, which it would
not do If the gas, for instance. was lit by
sparks. Of course without the stopcock the
electric battery for lighting would be useless.

LIFE ON THE MEXICAN BoRDER.-A cor
respondent of Western journal, who lives
on the line dividing Mexico from the United
States, has endured the following calami-
ties -
"I have had plantation in the harbor of
Mazatlan Con an islanO received 20-pound
shells through my house, and 12-pound shot
alongside; have been annoyed in every con-
ceivable manner possible. My poems ran
off; my cotton crop and sugar cane destroyed;
some six thousand tomato plants eaten up
by the worms: q was shipping tomatoes to
California at 80 cents per pound $40 900

tempts to assassinate me in one week. The
cursed French have had me prisoners in Ma

robbed me of all my arms-two revolvers,

EFFECTS OF WINE ON DrsEAsE.-Dr. Gale
observes, in his treatise on disease, that the
great use of wine in France is supposed to
have abated the prevalence of the gravel. In
the French colonies, where pure Wine is more
used than in the English, as well as in Tur-
Key where Samburg port wine is the princi-
pal beverage, not only the govt. bat the
gravel are scarcely known DR.. La Pote re-
lates, as an extraordinary instance of the
effects of the Samburg port wine on govt, the
case OF DR.. Daveran, who was attacked with
the govt at the age of %, and had it severely
till he was upwards of so, with chaTk-stones
in the joints of his hand and feet, but for
four years preceding the time when his case
mad been given to Dr. La Pote TO lay before

Treasurer of the road. in the list of stock
holders, we see Mr.. Clark put down as hold
ing one share of stock. It is.required that b
Director shall have foe shares of stock Was
the Governor afraid to have Mr.. Clark's name
officially announced as usual by the States
Proxy, because he had appointed one who
did not possess Prerequisite amount fstock?
Why did Gov. Worth appoint Mr.. Clark,
who is put down as having only one share of
stock, when Directors are required to possess
7fve shares of stock Has the Governor
violated the law
But if he has not violated the law, he did
certainly violate an established custom. He
did not entrust the commissions of State
Directors as usual to the States Proxy, but
to another individual, Mr. James Rumley,
aoh0 is not k'a0aon as a st0ckholder at all! THIS
is certainly an extraordinary proceeding on
the part of the Executive. By what rea-
son was he actuated? Was he afraid,
as we have before asked, to have Mr.. Clark's
name officially announced in the meeting?
We will conclude this article by an extract
from letter from an intelligent gentleman
in relation to this very matter. He says:
g I believe this to be the most marked in
stance of sacrifice of public interests to
personal and political feeling that ever l re-
collect to have seen. Governors Ellis and
Bragg and Others were really better, as they
did not set an example of political exclusion,
where the public duties were conducted on
plans and principles so warmly endorsed. 1
do not now recollect that they admitted that
merely political corruption and trickery
should be rewarded to the exclusion of public
services and interests. This has remained for
Gov. Worth-an instrument in the hands
of these tricksters, proving truly that lone
renegade is worse than ten Turks" as he has
sometimes to rush into extremes of radical
ism, in order to prove his complete subser-
viency to the plans and Vaccinations of his
new allies. Such unfortunately seems to be
the position of Gov Worth. In vain will
his former record be pointed to- AS well
might the harlot appeal to her former re
cord" in long resisting the wiles of the Sc
ducer. Subsequently she did yield, and
yielding became the most debased of her
sex. Let the patriot and friend of good gov
eminent take warning by this sad example
of Gov. Worth"

CONVENTION OF AMERICAN IsRAEL1rEs.-
The Seventh Convention of the Board of
Delegates of American Israelites, took place
IN New York recently, at which representa-
tlVes from seventy-six religious organizations
were present. The Executive Committee re-
ported that fifteen thousand dollars had
been subscribed by American Israelites for
the relief of the cholera stricken Jews of
Palestine, most of which had been expended.
Inc committee reported that the rights of
Jewish citizens of Switzerland had been re-
stored to them. Attention was called to the
course OF the Emperor of Austria in attack
ing the Jewish subjects and making if the
pretext for sending an army into an adioin
ing kingdom. Reference was made to the
efforts to establish Jewish free schools in the
Orient. The expediency of founding a Jew
lsh theological seminary for the education of
candidates for the ministry was discussed
Systematical distribution of Jewish tracts
was recommended. Finally the members of
the Convention were urged to labor eneroet-
ically in the cause of Judaism, and of resist
ing all encroachments made on civil and re-
hgious liberty.

1t is related of Lindsay, the Medina
murderer, by an old classmate that at the
early age of fourteen, he had prepared him
self to enter college, but one day, while
wrestling with his schoo: mates, he hurt bis
spine and was laid on sick bed for long
time When he recovered, it was found that
he had forgotten every word he had learned,
and that he had to commence at his
A e Us, and learn everything over again.
BY dint of hard study he again fitted him
self tor college, and in due time graduated,
but there was always something lacking
after ms accident. He attempted to fol-
low the pursuit of a clergyman, but was not
htted for the calling, and gave it up almost
entirely.

The once Private Secretary to Governor
Holden, who now edits renegade secession
news paper at Salisbury, is engaged in ira
elucing the character of his former bene-
factor.
This person sat in the room of the Private
Secretary in the Capitol during the Conven-
ton, and intrigued against Gov. Holden
When he announced himself for Congress, he
appended the line: Il snail vote for Jona-
than Worth for Governor" Then he sneaked
away from Raleigh without bidding Gov
Holden goodbye, although week before
they were upon the most intimate and
friendly terms. Such character, whatever
his ability as writer, will fail to impress the
public mind that he can bear either true,
honest, or manly evidence against Governor
Holden.

A RECKLESS PRocEEDINe.-By letter
from Antwerp 1t appears that the ship Agnes
was to have sailed from the port for New
York on May 18th, but the cholera breaking
out among the emigrant passengers on hoard,
she was detained. Fifty-six of the passen-
gers died, and there were twenty-five other
cases on board. The sick were however.
landed and on May 21st the ship with the
well passengers, sailed for New York. This
ship must have been infected with the cholera
poison, and the recklessness of sending pas
sengers to sea in her under such circum-
stances deserves the severest condemnation
