Messrs. Horace Z. Emery & Son, Albany, NJ Y
, GENTLEaEN-The set Of Cotton Ginning Ma
chinery which purchased from you last season
for my own use, has been in constant use ever
since its arrival in October last Your UNIvER-
SAL CorToN GIN and CONDENSER has acquired q
reputation in this section, which gives it prece-
dence over all others. Its superiority is acknowl
edged by all who have witnessed its operation, as
it runs easier, does more work, cleans the seed
more perfectly, separates notes and trash more
thoroughly, and detUers the clean cotton in better
condition than any other Gin in use hereabouts.-
I have had all the Ginning and Packing to do that
could attend to- and have run them steadily night
and day. My charge for ginning and packing has
been ten dollars Sl0 per bale of 400 pounds, which
price the planters prefer to pay me- on account Of
Tire better classification and higher prices obtained
for their cotton, rather than have their cotton
ginned on the old fashioned gins Of the country.
which charge but 81 to s. per bale. Some Of the
best and most practical judges in the State, many
of them Members of the Legislature, tell me the
seed is cleaned closer, and much better sample,
as also larger per centage Of lint is made, than
can be secured with any other make of gin in use
at the South. . ..-..-.. .,,..,..
These are facts and I can give you the names of
the parties at any time, should you wish to make
mention of this statement. ~ ale ...-. ... .,y-

Rarnnm,s Gorilla.

A New York correspondent says !:
Barnum will make another fortune out
of the gorilla which Tor, perhaps, 'cho,)
he now has on exhibition. Only one
other living gorilla ever left the shores
of Africa, and that died on the passage
10 England. The animal at Barnum's
is described as having lovely teeth, a
black skin, a hand like maiden's lin
delicacy), feet not too large, q low brow,
short, creped hair He has fine voice,
large in compass, and of comprehensive
range, as some of the astonished museum
people and the animals away up next
the roof know to their alarm. The GO
rilla did not stand up in our presence
(he is q contemptuous cuss }, so we can
not give his hight. 1t is reported at five
and a half feet, and his fighting weight
two hundred and fifty pounds. The
gorilla is fed upon vegetables, and, for
delicacy, upon nutmegs. This gorilla
cost $4,000, the most expensive man
and brother imported from Africa in
manva long day"

An Earthouake at Knoxville.

There was a very sensible shock of an
earthquake felt in this place yesterday
morning about sunrise. The shock did
not last more than two or three seconds.
This is the third earthquake that has
taken place here during the present
wear. One was felt some three weeks
ago and one about the last of May.
Earthquakes are not uncommon in East
Tennessee, though they are very slight,
and no one need apprehend any danger
from them. For some years past we
have had an earthquake very nearly
every year. The severest one we recol-
lect OF, occurred FIVE or six years ago.
This was in the fall season of the year
and about the time of sunrise. There
were three distinct shocks, either one of
which was harder and longer than the
shock of yesterday morning. -Knorritte
