cork is removed for an instant to let the sedi-
ment fly out; then it is replaced, the bottle is Ia
belled wrapped and cased by Cinnamon, and 1t is

"A citizen of Carroton, La, who noticed
that his chickens disappeared rather more rapidly
than hawks and rats could account for, hit upon
the idea of building his chicken house just above
q we'll, and constructed over the top of the we'll
trap:door, which was so arranged that a party
entering the house would inevitably tumble in.
For several mornings he inspected his trap but
found nothing At length, however, he repaired
as usual to the well, and lo there at the bottom
there was only about foot or two OF water-sat
in lamentable plight ''gemmen of African scent,
one of the nation wards, indeed, whose love tor
chickens no amount of freedom will, it seems, ever
overcome. He was duly fshed up and lodged in
iail. A few mornings afterwards another sable
chicken fancier was caught in the same ingenious
trap, and we learn that both the guilty parties are
now in durance vile awaiting trial. They regard
the trap as horrible invention calculated to inct
immense damage to their fellow craftsmen, and
utterly unfair and consequently unjustifable: 1t
would not be surprising if these parties should sue
out niunctons against the white citizens at large,
restraining them from erecting chicken houses over
wells, or of doing anything to endanger the LITE
and liberty of colored chicken fanciers. The trap
should be patented as it will doubtless work a re-
volution in the method of constructing fowl rcsid'

COTTON SEED MILL.

The Phunic says a joint stock company is be-
ing formed among the planters along the lines OF
railroads centerng in Columbia, for the erection
of large mill for pressing oil from cotton seed.
Subscription books are open at the office of Col.
VIM. Wallace, the stock being payable in cash and
cotton seed. The plan Of operation is as follows
Stockholders will send seed to the mill, and receive
in return the oilcake and onethird ofthe profits on
the oil. The enterprise promises to be very sue
cessfu seed having been offered already, from
Georgia and from every accessible portion Of the
State
Would it not be we'll for our farmers to examine
into the merits of this thing and partake of its ben
efts if any exist? Oil-cakc is said to be more
nutritious food than corn, and favorite with all
kinds of stock, and is much used in England, As
corn is likely to be scarce during the winter some
such cheap food for stock will be great dcsidera
tum. five only had live agricultural society
among us, to look after all such matters as this,
our farmers might very soon ascertain the practi-
cal value of this novelty. As it is every one must
hunt up information for himself, and probably lose
the benefits of such information for year or two.
By that time, when the whole State has adopted
the use ofoilcakc for stock food, and after good
deal Of badly needed money has been paid out for
corn, people will begin to think that perhaps oil
cake is pretty good thing.

That the young men of the country arc in dam
ger, it is easy to sec five were to take list of
all the youths, in any community, many Of these
would be pronounced worthless, trihng fellows, by
their neighbors. We do not know the proportion
of the bad to the good but it is very certain that
every town and village has its bad boys That be-
ing the case, there is danger of the best falling
away. Seventeen to twenty-onc forms critical
period in boys life Young man, if you find
yourself very fond of standing on certain street cor
ners, and watching everything going on, you are
in danger. The country boy has no favorable
standpoint of that kind, but he finds for himself
q worse onc--thc cross roads store. When | see
youth spending much of his time at these stores,
| know him to be in great danger A habit of
ideness and idle talking is formed This always
leads to worse habits Beware of hanging around
crossroads store houses! Keep away from dram
shops, however private they may be. He who
tipples is in danger of becoming confirmed drunk
ard, and the drunkard is not fit for anything we
know of. Keep away from the den of the evil
woman; avoid it as you would hell ITSELF Hunt
up certain incident in brave old Samuel john

These are few of the open, yery.day dangers
that surround you. Look about you carefully and
acqut yourselves like men. These days demand
that you do your duty faithfully and well.
There will be Picnic at Jeferes Mill, Satur-

quired to make such occasions pleasant. Let the
fair and the gallant turn out and do their best on

TENNESSEE AND ALABAMA.

The returns from the Tennessee election indicate
that the State has gone for Senter, the Conserva.
tive Republican candidate, by an overwhelming
majority, estimated at 10000. So far as heard
from at Washington on the 9th, not county has
given majority for Stokes, the ultra Radical can
didatc 1t is probable that both branches of the
Legislature will be strongly conservative, result
which promises the election of Andrew johnson,
or some other prominent anti Radical, to the Uni
ted States Senate.
The election lin Alabama was for members OF
Congress. The Radicals carried two districts the
Democrats two, and two are yet uncertain In
Mobile there was serious riot on the night OF the
election caused by negro celebration in honor of
the election of their candidate There were not
over one hundred white men present at the meet
ing as lockers on. But one of these accidentally
trod on the toes of a negro, and as all hands had
come prepared for row, general firing began
at once The crowd dispersed as soon as the fir
ing commenced, and the whole affair did not last
ten minutes. A detachment of u. S. troops was
present, which took no part in the fray except to
stop the firing The casualties were three negroes
killed and five negroes, three white men and four
police officers wounded.

LOOK OUT FOB THE COMET.

Our exchanges say that comet is now visible
in the Northern part of the sky. 1t rises little
before midnight, and sets about an hour before
daylight. At present this is very unobtrusive
visitor to our corner of the universe, and modest
in its proportions. But if astronomers are to be
believed, it is destined to become an intruder Of
much Importance. This comet has been expected
for some time, and will probably hang around in
our neighborhood until the latter part Of Septem-
Der. Astronomers say it will come nearer the
earth than any comet has yet come, so close indeed
that unless one or the other gets out of the way
collision is inevitable They say further that it is
a solid mass of fire, many times larger than the
earth, with a blazing tail that could be wrapped
around our globe hundred times and leave enough
to tie bow knot. In view of these statements,
it behooves US to look upon our fiery visitor with
exceeding great respect.

PAYMENT OF TAXES.

1t will be remembered that the citizens of Col.
umbia held a meeting some weeks ago, to institute
concerted resistance to the payment of the State
tax. Chancellor Canolland +. ". Tickling, ESD,
were chosen as counsel to take the matter through
the Courts.
This effort to nullify the law has proved fail
urc. A correspondent of the Charleston Courier,
writing from Columbia says that Chancellor Car
roll is understood 10 believe that the Courts would
sustain the act, and that the only remedy for un-
Just taxation is that provided BY the act itself
This remedy consists in making personal applica-
ton to the State Auditor, through the County
Auditor, for an abatement of the tax Chan
celor Carroll has taken this course to get reduc-
ton of his own tax, which fact clearly evidences
what his opinion is.
It'll vain, then, to hope for reduction, except
through personal application. When the man
who was selected to contest payment, is unwilling
to risk trial before the Courts, others would act
wisely by following his example. Such course
does not imply a sanction of the justness or legal
ty of the tax law. 1t merely indicates that the
tax payer submits to power which he cannot re-
sist, and pays his black mail-not because he ap-
proves of it, but only to save further expense And
this is probably the wiser course for the majority
of our people. Those who have plenty Of money
to throw away in hopeless cause, may earn the
gratitude of posterity by fighting the tax to the
last ditch. But poor men had better stand
and deliver" before the demand is increased twcn-
