We learn that some parties in this
county are 10 the habit Of putting mud
ann water into the middle Of their cotton
bales while in the press, and sending it to
market In that condition. Complaints
have reached us from New Orleans Of
cotton from Wilkinson County coming to
market in that shape, but we have refrain
ed from saying anything about it hoping
that it was accidentally done. More re-
Gently, however, we have seen in the
hands Of one Of our merchants here bale
similarly Fixed up and all ready for market.
We will mention no names, but suffice Il
to say that il the practice 10 not immedi
ately stopped the names will be published.
We do not wish to see the good name Of
the planters and merchants Of our county
furnished by any ssch swindling practices.
Besides this 1t is depreciating the value
and injuring the sale Of all the cotton ship
PED from. the county. Honesty is the
best policy, and we commend it to the
consideration Of these parties. :

for Dent, but the result showsdiderently.
There are 20 counties with a majority Of

Rome is being fatted for the feast.
We have been wondering who among

so seldom are able to get them they en-
joy them the more when they do get a

The progress Of Minnesota in the pro
duction Of wheat is among the agricultu
raj marvels Of the age. It is estimated
that the surplus wheat Of that State the
present year win be fully 100000 bush
els. while but little Of the great grain
plateau embraced within its limits has
yet been brought under cultivation. One
farmer, the past year, harvested 1000
acres, with an average yield Of 40 bush
els to the acre. This section, while much
Of it is too far north for growing corn, will
evidently become the Odessa Of America
in the production Of wheat.

LOOK TO THE IMPLEMENTs.--It is Ia.
inevitable fact that q large majority of our
farmers lose as much from want Of prop
er care Of tools as from the actual wear
and tear Of them. Repeated wetting and
drying spoils, sooner or later, any kind OF
woodwork !. the moisture getting into the
cracks soon increases them. This may be
prevented by timely and occasional ap-
plication Of some cheap paint. Much
has been said and written upon the val
ne OF tool houses. and it is hardly neces-
sary for US to add our mite to the general
collection: but providing the tool house is
not all that should be done-uth shoyels,
spades and forks are brought into the tool
house with the dirt sticking to them, and
in that condition they remain through the
winter or until they are again needed.

ADMIRAL FARRAGUT.
A Visit to the Veteran-How HI
Looks and Talks.


Admiral Farragut arrived at bis resi-
dence in this city q few days ago. HI
has not been out since, except on Tuesday
afternoon, when he went for drive. The
atmosphere and the iatigues Of the drive
had bad effect upon him. and be suffered
considerably during the following night
| The Admiral is under The especial care o.
resident physician. by whose orders yisi
tors are not permitted to see him. 1t was
the fortune Of the Tribune reporter Ia
serve with the Admiral in one OF his most
brilliant achievements, and not having
seen him for several years, on calling, by
special request of the Admiral, he was
shown into his sitting room. The Ad
miral is but little changed in outward
signs, and looks almost as hearty as he
did when treading the decks OF the Hart
ford on the Mississippi. His eye is bright
his voice strong. and the same radiant
smile plays about his mouth He was
seated when the visitor entered the room
and did not rise but firm, hearty grasp
Of his hand showed that he had lost but
little Of his physical power. 1t was sur
prising to see him looking 60 well, con-id
ering the reports regarding his iliness.--
Well as he may look, however, his ply
sicians are determined that he shall not be
disturbed until he has regained a measure
Of strength so as to bear up under the bur
den Of cares incident to his official rank
and position ia society. The conversation
turned upon general topics connected with
naval history, and some details OF the New
Orleans fight which are in dispute. Some
naval officers have seen fit to claim fol
themselves glory at the expense of Far
raeut, but If they could have been present
when the subject was referred to, they
might have blushed to hear their superior
tell bis plain. unvarnished tale. Many
have said that Admiral Faragut has been
negligent in the matter OF pressing for the
New Orleans prize money. 1t is known
that complete list OF the vessels sunk,
captured, burnt, and otherwise disposed Of
by bis victorious feet was duly filed BY
him in the Navy Department, which has
lost that record. The Admiral has en-
ployed his old pay master to go to Wash.
