An IMPORTANT observation-disclosures PICK
ING By MISUNDERSTANDING lost the ad-
vantage of slave labor, and the lazy
habit Of the negro being developed, prov
ing that freedmen are not to be trusted
when the important work of picking cot
ton at the right time comes, has made
the Importance of the invention of a
cotton picker a necessity in the South.
We yesterday took a trip to examine an
invention of this kind by oue Of our
%well-known citizens, Mr.. A. Teinsch, on
the grounds Of Mr.. Thomas, at the up
per end of Chelsea. On reaching there,
we gave the new machines a thorough
examination and though we found the
work was rot complete, yet the rudi-
ments and the right principles we dis
covered the inventor had attained. The
machine is based on the wagon principle,
having two wheels which move the ma
chinery, consisting of two cylinders of
brushes in the front, one at the back, and
a cylinder Of fine teeth in the centre
with a receptacle at the back holding
from three to four hundred pounds of cot
ton with the seed as picked. The machine
IS made to take two rows, the animal
pulling it passing between the rows, and
the driver seated high above the entire
works. We saw the machine work, and
though we discovered it still lacked many
qualities which will have to be add
ed, we feel sure it will in time be a sue
cess, and yet crown the inventor with
glory. The brush is the proper principle
by which cotton is to be picked by ma
chinery. and when Mr.. Tiensch brings his
invention to a completion he may consi-
der himself a lasting benefactor to our
country. In this connection, we may
state, that while his invention was being
tried, we saw a negro, wlo had come up
on horseback, gave the new machine
long and wistful glances. In the first
place he laughed, feeling confident that it
was a failure; but when he saw that every
thing was favorable, and that it worked,
even in its rude state, like something of
a success, he exclaimed: Eff that ar
thing gwine to pick de cotton, good bye
all de lazy niggers, for they'll have to
work at something else" In conclusion.
we feel satisfied that Mr.. Tiensch will
bring his machine into successful opera
ton, and we trust it WILDE soon.-M em

quite mob. I he whole affair was
gotten up with the object Of forming

We're driven away by a number of

With pistols. The negroes would
have made resistance, but finding
the whites were determined, under
the advice Of their leader they went
up town for reintoTcements. They
managed to get about 200 strong,
when they started for the river. The
authorities got wind Of the whole
matter, and when the rioters came to
the levee and turned Union street,
they Were suddenly confronted by Il
party of regulars, and every one Of
them promptly arrested The white

Next night he tried it in another
spot, and it was found very wet on
he following morning. There, :"

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE Ashland was Wis
tied last Saturday by one. Of the most de-.
structive fires that las occurred here for
several years. About II O'clock "A, NJ,
on Saturday, the attic Of the North wing
Of the MILLER House was discovered to
be on fire. The alarm was instantly Civ.
en- and the Fire Company was promptly
on hand, but, as usual, the engine was
not in working order, and it was at least
half au hour before it was brought to bear
upon the building. Had it not been fer
the almost s~uperhuman efforts Of the cit.
liens, who stayed the progress of the
flames, the whole block would have been
destroyed. At one time there was great
danger that the fire would defeat all ef:
forts Of the citizens to overcome it, as the
roof was completely envcloped in flames ;
but after the engine commenced throw.
ing water, the ~devouring element was
soon subdued. The entire roof, and all
the rooms on the second floor, were de-
stroyad. The floor was slightly burned
in two places. The furniture and other
valuables were saved, but considerably
broken and otherwise damaged. No in.
insurance on the furniture. Mr.. Mil
LER's loss is estimated at 81, 900; fully
insured. The main building was moi
burned any, but somewhat damaged by
water. 1t is not known how the fire or,
iginated.
Many Of the citizens behaved most no,
bly,, while Others stood inactive, gazing
unmoved upon the scene of destruction.
