there Is another important fact he

one Of our citizens, with whom We
have convcrsed on the subject, has
expressed regret at the departure Of
Gen. Hayden and his command, and
We believe il is general. As to Gen
Hayden, his conduct has been such
az to impress all fair-minded people
with his freedom from political bias
sense Of justice, liberaliiy, and high.
toned integrity. He was above all
mean and petty tyranny, and if he
did anything offensive to our people
we feel sure he did it under tho or
ders of his superior officers, and not
by his own motion. We believe We
express the general sense of our
community, when We say that he is
model officer and u Christian gen.
tleman and, it all public officers
were like him, reconstruction On a
constitutional basis would have been
accomplished long ago.

An Important Discovery.

An Important Discovery. :
We do not know when we were
more surprised than recently, by
a friends laying before us some
specimens of articles produced
from thescoru plant, consisting of
textile fabrics, paper, ETC., The
paper embraces the description
known a. parchment, drawing,
Photographic tracing, tissue, print
ing, and writing, and is of. beautiful
quality. The cloth consists of-the
goods known. as crash. mating,
and coarse baleing cloth, suitable
for toweling: floor mating, cotton
bales, and sacks. There. are also
among the samples some of: the
corn plant fibre, prepared for
spinning gun cotton, and pulp
ready for the grinding paper mill
These articles are all produced
from the shuck, stalk and fodder
Of the compliant, and the discov-
cry, has developed q new and enor-
nous value in that growth. The
demand for these products is un-
limited, and the manufacture OF
them will open upon new and un-
expected demand for what has
hitherto been esteemed as of little
value. The discovery was made
by a. Bohemian named Moritz
Diamapt, was taken up by the
Austrian government, and there
are several factories IN successful
operation in that country. The
results are 1emjnentiy successful.
From a statement before us we
learn that the net profit on a. ton
Of the raw material is thirty dol
lars, which, at the rate Of twelve
ton reduced per day, would yield
a profit Of three hundred and six
|ty; dollars. This too, in Austria,
where the raw material IS much
! higher thanin this country, being
at the rate Of twenty-four dollars
er ton. The yield Of fbrous and
glutenous material from the Amer
Ian plant is also much, greater
shan. from the Austrian. 'Th,
stalks treated separately yield
sixty-six and three fourth per
cent. ofa coarse fibre suited for
rough textile fabrics and wrap
ping paper. The cost Of the. ma
chinery necessary for the reduc;
tion of twelve tons per day Of raw.
material is only about $4,000 !;
and we understand that $20,60e
will erect machinery which. will
Weld a profit of $4,000. per day.
We regard this as a discovery 0

A. Venerable Divine.

+ =. A. Venerable Divine.
Rev. John Bachman, DID, pas
tor Of the nglish Lutheran Church
Of this city; completed the fifty
third year of his ministry in: that
church yesterday, and delivered
an appropriate discourse from the
words Let us call to mind the
days Of the past, The sermon
was a historical retrospect, refer
ring chiefly to, the past ministerial
services. of the preacher. Tns
church was crowded both morn
ing and, evening with an attentive
audience, many, of whom had
grown up under the teachings of
their venerable. pastor. -Notwith-
standing Iris weight. Of years, DR.:
Bachman is. an active minister OF
the gospel, and his anniversary SER
mon erinced the same clearness
and ability that has always dis
tinguished his diseourses.. DR..
Baehman, was born at Rhinebeck,
in the State. Of New York, in 1870:
of.an ofd colonial family. His pa
ternaEancestor, aSwiss gentleman,
came to America as private: ;Seere
tary! to William. Penn. He was
Ordained to the ministry in 1872,
and called to the church in Char
lesion in 1915; For a time
preached in a wooden building in
the rear Of the present church,
which was not erected untin 1877.
He was. .thenin the habit OF preach
ing a-sermon in-the German lar
guage once every month, but this
practice has been discontinued for
some time.
We have heard, DIR. Bachman
say, that the: Dutch or Hollandish:
then much spoken in the State of
New York, was the Language OF
bis, early youth, and that he had
arrived at the years Of manhood
before he commenced the study. OF
German. We cannot withhold
our admiration therefore at the
thorough mastery he 80 soon OBJ
tanned over this difficult language.
enabling him to speak it with fa-
cility, and to, preach even to an
intelligent audience. r. .r.r
Of Dr.. Bachman's scientific at
tainments this is rot the proper
place to speak. For years he haS
been known throughout the word
of letters as distinguished .natu-
ralist and his pen has been d4igent
in. the cultivation Of this vast and
interesting field. His so-opera-
tion with the lanlented Audubon
in the preparation Of the Quadru
,peds of North America, secured
him a multiplicity Of learned titles
from every civilized country on
the globe. His monograph on the
Unity of the Human Race was
written in the interest of science
and revelation, and is worth re-
production in these days Of Ariel
mania.
Among the male members of DR..
Bachman's congregation who had
the pleasure Of listening to his an
niversary discourse, was one who
was the first that had received the
rite of confirmation at his hands,
and with the exception of an aged
female member now absent from
the city, is the oIdss; member OF
his flock. There are few minis
tcrs Of the Gospel who have ar
rived at a ripper age than DR.. Bach
man. lie has continued in the
service Of one church longer than
any other, and with the exception
of Rev. DR.. Hanclel, has been con-
nccted with the ministry great
or number Of years than any other
in the city.-Charleston Ne'cs.
