STAR AGRICULTURAL WORKS.

THE Albany COTTON GIN Manufactur-
Il ing Company, manufacturers of tho
celebrated "Star" Cotton Gins and Con-
densers, Star Threshing Machines, Star
Lever and Endless Chain Horse Powers,
Our "star" Cotton Gin and Condenser
have taken first premiums in every in
stance where entered Ut Southern Fairs,
competing with the best Gins OF the coun-
try made by other parties.
at the two great Fairs of the Mechanics
and Agricultural Association, held at New
and January, 1868, the "Star" Gin and
Condenser took RB-at both Fairs -2a all
the premiums offered on Gins and Con-
densers, against competition embracing
all other Gins of any prominence in the
country. Also, at the last two State Fairs
held at st. Louis, Mo-. our Gin and Con-
denser took the first premium against
powerful competition.
The Condenser attachment being new to
most planters, we wish to say that it en-
tlrely obviates the necessity of clint
room," as with it Gin may be used in the
open air, and the sheet. or bat, as it is dis
charged from the Condenser is ready for
the press. Ii effectually cleans the cotton
OF sand and dirt and makes the work of
ginning free from the danger of inhaling
the fine particles of lint which otherwise
fill the air.
N. b: We also make the most approved
Horse Powers tboth Lever and Railway to
drive our "Star" Gins, and also manufac-
ture the celebrated "Star'' Threshing Ma
chimes. We furnish Gins with or without
Condensers. For sale by our agents and
dealers generally. Our complete illustrat-
ed descriptive circular is sent, free Of
charge, on application by mail. Address

the chief.

to the house of Voorn, the bravo. It
is situated in the suburbs of the city,

In the outskirts of Venice was q
small stone house. 1t contained one
room, with only one small window to
give light to its occupant. It was
the home of Voorn, the bravo. He
lived alone, and no one visited him,
except those who wanted :. dark deed
done. Voorn worked for money,
and when we'll paid, his stiletto never
failed.
On the night when we introduce
him to our reader, he was seated in
his room. The furniture was of the
scantiest kind, consisting of q low
table, stool and a pallet of straw.
A candle stuck in the mouth of bot
tie was burning upon the stool. He
appeared to be expecting o visitor,

and peer out

It came nearer, and there was q rap
at the door. Voorn opened it, and
the Duke of Milan entered the room.

THE VETERAN EDITOR OF THE LOUIS
WILLIE JoURNAL-I visited Mr.. Prentice
first He was writing with difficulty in the
editorial room Of the Journal, which was in
the second story of lead>colored brick
building, tolerably well battered and anti.
uuated. His eyes are good with the aid OF
glasses, but his arms are feeble, if not par
tally palsied. He is, think, iu bis sixty
fourth year, and all the manhood his time
has been committed to career Of feverish
action, the days devoted to caustic commen.
tary, with leisurely accidents Of poem writ
between; and when the bitterly fought poll
tcal campaigns came be was all alive and
eloquent aRd defiant, the strongest quill
driver west of the Allegheny Mountains.
It was a life to tire a bald eagle out. de
came here from Connecticut, being an orr,
ginal Yankee, with enough of Long Island
sound in bis lungs to keep him generation
or two, and the circumstantialities as a con-
serative community, If they never quite
awakened him to questions Of reform, made
him useful beyond all panegyric as a mag.
nifcent nationalist. He was the better half
of Henry Clay, and his strength was spared
to the brink of the rebellion, when, almost
gone, ,l'he grappled the Journal to the north
banks of the Ohio, and saved the State from
expatriation aud pil'age. Then his over
taxed body itself rebelled, and Mr.. Prentice
has been little since except the occupant of
his editorial chair. | found him, neverlhe'
less, with clear memory of even minute and
most remote trifes, and a general elegance
of address which was to him in Kentucky
scarcely less essential than talents His
hair was thin, his limbs slight; he still writes
a poem occasionally with all his old grace
ful enthusiasm. but the death of his favor
ite son broke bis spirit simultaneously with
the failure Of his body. l found it hard to
recall the gallant and hopeful presence that
had SO often looked down pistol barrel in
those days when to be an editor here WIS
also to be soldier He accepted the Ken
lucky civilization with the true Yankee grit,
and fought his way inside Of it. Once a
man met him on the sidewalk and fired de
lberately at his heart. Prentice knocked
him down and put his foot on him. "GGt
up" said he, 81 don't care to kill you"
They met again years afterward, at a Ken.
lucky watering place; the assalant was dy>
ing of consumption, and he came up,
coughing spectator, and thanked Prentice
for his life. Mr. Prentice said of Journal
ism in the days of Clay, and the journalism
of the present: at did not take the money
or the enterprise in those days that are ow
required. A newspaper did not try to do
SO much political lead was mainly neces-

broke path through the snow in Spring
field recently, as witness the following from
the Republican "The late storm so filed
one of our new and smaller streets with snow
that it became almost an impossibility to pass
through it, but as only two houses were on
that street, and only two persons had occa>
sion to pass through it daily, the task of
breaking path became formidable. one,
and the expense of having it broken would
by no means be triAing. One of It's two
inhabitants, however, had an eye for bust
ness. In the Republican he inserted an
advertisement offering his house for sale at
a mere song The plan worked like charm.
From Immediately after breakfast until late
at night, and on the next day also, stream
of hungry spectators of all sexes and nations,
on foot aud in sleighs and carriages, poured
down the blockaded street to secure the
great bargain. OF course they were all
just too late, as they were told, but long
