An Honest Confession.

The Charlottesville, Va, Chronicle
speaking of the late war, says:
The South has been whippedin this
fight fair and square-and after a
splendid effort. Nobody laments the
result more than we do, Nobody has
been more mortified at the humilia,
tion accompanying than we have been
but there is the rugged fact. What is
to be done? We are in the Union
we are in the Union on compulsion-
and we cannot get out of the Union
Fighting did not get US out, and talk
ing will not do it now. Is the South
to occupy sullen attitude, and spend
her fortune raiinga at the North, and
grinding her teeth ? Is this profitable
or dignifed?
All to whom the modification OF our
situation is intolorable ought to 90 to
Brazil; all who can bear the idea Of
remaining here ought to accept the sit
uation broadly. That is precisely q
Southern mans duty now; no cursing,
noIfaint heartedness, but q full rcaliza.
ton of the situation, and then an ac.
ceptance or rejection of it. If Ifrejected
then the road is to Brazil; if accepted
then, with trust in God and submission
to His will, the duty is to become in
good faith, an American citizen.

A Match Factory.


A match factory in Western New
York is noted for the curious machine
ry used in the manufacture. 100000
feet of pine Of the best quality are
used annually for the machines, and
400, 600 feet Of bass wood for cases.
The sulphur used annually for the
matches is 400 barrels, and the phos.
phorus is 5000 pounds. The machines
run night and day, and 300 hands are
employed at the works. 500 pounds
of paper per day are used to make the
light small boxes for holding the
matches, and four tons of pasteboard
per week for the larger boxes. Sixty.
six pounds Of -four per day are used for
paste, and the penny stamps required
by government on the boxes amount
to the snug little sum OF 81 ,44O per
day.
There are four machines in use for
cutting, tipping and delivering the
matches. The two-inch pine plank is
sawed up the length OF the match,
which is . inches. These 20 into the
machine for cutting, where at every
stroke II matches arc cut, and by the
succeeding stroke pushed into Stats ar
ranged on double chain 2jO ieet long
which carries them to the sulphur vat,
and from thence to the phosphorus vat,
and thus across the room and back, re.
turning them at point just in front Of
the cutting machine, and where they
are delivered in their natural order
and are gathered up by boy into
trays and sent to the packing room -
Thus / 1,O00 gross or IA 900 small boxes
Of matches are made per day. The ma,
chimes for making the small, thin pa.
per boxes and their covers are quite as
wonderful'ahd ingeniously contrived
as those that make the matches. A
long coil of paper, as wide as the box
is long, revolves on a wheel, one end
being in the machine. 1t first passes
through rollers, where the printing is
done, from thence to the paste boxes
where the sides and ends only are past.
ed; from thence TO the foldiag-appara.
tus, where the ends are nicely folded
and the whole box is pasted together
and drops into basket. A similar
machine is at work at the covers, and
thus IA, 900 boxes per day are manu-
featured.
