The greatest difficulty in the raising of cot ton is the process of fgatheringit. The planter begins to pick his crop early ill September, sometimes much later. During the entire season the whole force is engaged in picking all the time, going over the field at least three times. This is made necessary by the fact that the cotton ripens at different periods.
 The gathering of cotton crop requires three times as many as its cultivation. It is the hardest and most disagreeable work of the plantation ;and the negro would rather per form any other labor. During the picking season extra hands are hired at very high prices. Large portions of the crop are an- nually lost, because it cannot be secured during the picking season.
 The difficulties are very greatly aggravated by the present condition of labor at the South Thousand of additional acres would be planted, this year, if the planter did not fear losing his crop, for want of power to gather~i it. To meet this emergency, cotton picking ma chine has been invented, which will do the work of twenty men, and dispense with the labor of extra hands. The inventor claims that it will gather cotton at distances ranging from six inches to six feet, that it will gather it as clean as the most expert hand; taking the cotton only from the bolls which are fully ripe and we'll open leaving the undeveloped pods uninjured, and uot harming the plant
 Of course the difficulties infinitely exceed those attending the moving and reaping ma chine. But these difficulties have been over come by the ingenuity of New England man :; and the most skillful experts of Masssachu- sets pronounce the invention success If this proves true, the machine will prove more effectual than the cotton gin in stimulating the production of this great staple The com merce of the world will be once more revolu- tionized by the enormous increase of the cot ton crop and this timely invention will be of incalculable value, both to it's proprietors and to the country. The model is now in this city, under the charge of Gen. Hunt, a loyal Ten nesseean; and it will be offered to the capital iss of this vicinity. If it answers the expec- tations of those who have seen it, our manu- lecturers will be fortunate in securing the property in this great invention. .-[ Boston Transcript.

BEN. BEAST BOTTLED BUTLER.-Undcr the above captain the Lacrosse, Wisconsin, Demo- crat, says. G
 At last this great American thief and blum dering murderer has resigned and is no more an officer in the army he disgraced. Grant has bottled him up forever, and in few words proved the truth of our oft expressed opinion of this natural thief, coward and military ass. What he will do now is more than we know Most likely go to shcp-lifting, grave robbing or insulting women. At heart traitor-by instinct thief-by education robber-ben- venality and incompetency second to none in tie world. He was one of the peculiar tools of Lincoln and the Republican party, and has been a nightmare on the American people for the past five years. An original secessionist, he never had patriotic motive in his heart. He never deserved 8 position in the army-he never foughta battle--he never won victory he never lost an opportunity to steal from and plunder the defenseless--hc never made the Union flag other than 2 signal to mark the ENNN's, been dismissed from the army long ago.
 The greatest curse mother could put on child would be to wish it the heart and attri- hutes of Ben. Butler, whose sun has at last sunk in the deepest infamy, and whose etern- fly we trust will be spent in t6e home of his en- ployer, Thief rober, abolition patriot, mil itary blunderer, woman insuter, graveyard robber, soldier murderer, egotisticsl ass, pet Republicanism, child of the devil, cock-eyed abortion of humanity. bottled braggadocio played-out politician, dishonored general and traitorous citizen-.fare@eU.
 Thus one by one of the political generals and causes of our national troublesome by one the cottonthieving, plundering scoundrels who have strutted their brief hour on the bloody stage, drop into infany here, as we trust they will Tn hell thereafter. Bottled Blunderer, Big Bethel Butcher. Bigoted Braggadocio, Ben. Beast Butler -.fgrsweH

WHEN YOU'RE DOWN.

Y What legion of f''friends" always blessus, When golden success lights our way How they smile as they softly address us,
 So cordial, good humored and gay. But oh when tho sun of prosperity
 Hath sct---then how quickly they frcwn, And cry out in tone of severity, ( "Kick the man, don't ycu see heis downl' What though, whom you knew not sorrow, Your heart was as open as day, And your friends when they wanted to bor-
 TOW, ;. You obliged-and ne'er asked them to pay. What though not soul you Ger sighted, As you wandered about through the town, Your "friends" became very near sighted, E. And don't seem to see when you're down, When you're "up' you are loudly exalted, And traders All sing out your praise, When you're down you have greatly de-
 faulted, s1sssa ah And they 'really don't fancy your ways" "Your style was 'tip-top'' when you'd money, So sings every sucker and clown, But now 'tis exceedingly funny, a
 Things are altered because 'you are down." Oh give me the heart that forever
 Is free from the worlds selfish rust, And the soul whose high noble endeaYor Is to raise fallen man from the dust; Aud rp,au ;p odvnraifv's ocean
 X victim is likely to drown, All hail to the friend whose devotion
 Will lift up man when he's "down."
