ANOTHER Dig AT THE PHOSPuATEs-AsHLEY
RIVER TO BE DREDGED.-When the utility OF the
phosphate beds was first made public, efforts were
at once set on foot to discover how far the vein
extended. From submarine explorations, made
by Mr.. Angus Smith, noted charleston oi'er'
together with close investigation of the main and
islands OF the seacoast, it was apparent that the
he'd of mari or phosphate extended in semi-cir-
cuar direction from short distance up the
Cooper and Ashley Rivers to Port Royal whcre IL
was lost in the sea or deteriorated by being mixed
with an iron ore. The same deterioration was
noticed in other sections, and careful analysis
showed that the best quality Of phosphatcS con-
| tanning from sixty to eighty per cent. oi hme,
were found near Charleston, along the pahKs Oh
the Ashley River From his submarine eXp'ora-
tions, the idea was suggested TO Mr. Smith that
large amount of phosphates could be taken from
the bed OF the river.
Having been employed as a'wrecSer to raise
the vessels sunk In the harbor during the war,
he eyperimented on the machinery used for that
purpose. and has succeeded in producing power
full dredge that will raise the phosphateS from
q depth OF seventeen feet. sThe work was done
| on Sullivan's Island, and nothing was known
pile-drver was obtained and fitted up with dou-
bic engines of twenty-seven horsepower.
heavily braced scsflolding in the bow sustalns
the machinery, which is worked somewhat Ike
the dredre boats used in the harbor, but
having, instead OF bucket, basket
rake, which grappes with the rock ana
brings It to the surface. A truck passing
under the rake receives the load, which Is then
transferred by slides into the lighters. AS test
OF the efficacy OF the new dredgc, monkey
wrench was thrown overheard and recovered on
the first attempt The teeth OF the rake are steel
pointed, and grip tighter as they are raised to the
surface. The machine was invented and patent
ed by Mr.. Angus Smith, and has received me
encomiums OF all mechanics who have inspected
it. The bed OF the Ashley is composed OF phos
phate rock, the greater part in humps or noilules
that can be easily removed at handsome profit
| to the protector OF the enterprise, anu an ulti
mate benefit to the navigation of the river.

II Is the expressed opinion of most Of the
planters with whom we have conversed late
ly,ssays the Macon Journal & Messenger, that
the use Of fertilizers proved the salvation OF
the cotton crop this season. Had the plant
not been forced forward by their use fully
month earlier to fruitiOn, the long contin-
ued drought would have played sad havoc
with the weed. an1 the present crop, instead
OF being half or a twO-thirds one. would
have dwindled down to a fourth, or even
less They say that but for the use of fertil-
izers they would not have been able to OBJ
tain the good stands they did so early hav-
ing the effect OF forcing the plant to maturi-
ty. Thus, cotton picking commenced fully
a month earlier than usual-which will ac-
count Tor the already heavy receipts here
the receipts in the past three days alone
footing up the very large aggregate of 2503
bales.
From gentlemen who have Travelled ex-
tensiyely through the cotton-growing Sec
ton OF the State, we learn that there re-
mains but little cotton to pick out, but what
the crop Will foot up, we have no definite
means OF yet ascertaining. That there will
be but little cotton received here after
Christmas, we are positively certain as we
are that the bulk of the crop has already
been sent to market. Most of the cotton
now arriving here is being stored--planters
pioneering to hold than To take the present
market price. Whether this is good policy,
time will show.
But to resume about fertilizers. AS popu-
lar as they were last season, they are destin-
ed to be more so this season. On inquiry
among gua1o dealers yesterday, we learned
that they had already sold the extraordina-
~ large amount of 695 tons, to say nothing
of the many verbal orders they had receiv-
from old customers when in town. AT this
period last year. there was under 100 tons
sold. We judge from this, that all who tried
fertilizers the past season, have found them
to pay, hence this early and increased de-
mand.

Scientific.

The estimation of very high temperature
is a task accompanied with so many difficult
ties that entire dependence as to accuracy
cannot be placed upon the best promoters
made, while the majority of apparatus in
market deviate far from the truth. A
French patent has been granted for a very
simple instrument of this class, which is said
to always mark within two or three degrees
of the absolute temperature, and which also
marks the temperature at a considerable
distance off. so that foreman in his Office
csn see at glance the heat in all the fur
naces in the establishment The instrument
consists principally of an iron retort filled
With marble. When the retort is heated to
red heat the marble is decomposed, and
clrbOnic acid gas liberated. AS a direct re-
lition exists between the tension of the gas
and temperature, by noting what the for
ner arrives at, as it is conducted through
IN elongated neck of the retort, by special
| tontrivance the latter is marked on a dial
llate at any distance removed.
| The influence of electricity in ripening
| apples, pears and other fruits, has been
shown by Nj. Blondeau, of the French Acad-
envy of Sciences. Not only did they grow
lup quicker, but more hardy and vigorous.
Even billiards among children can really be
electrified into smartness.

THE HORRIBLE ATROCITIES OF THE
SKoPrzI.-The fanatical sect of Russia
are still exciting the attention of Europe.
A Russian paper gives an account of one
of their recent exploits. One day last
month a party of 400 of these fanatics
left the town of Balatschow and proceed
ed to a neighboring wood to pray. The
scene witnessed on their return was hor-
rible. A mailman, named Wasilof,
declsred that he was the Son of God,
and, after choosing twelve apostles from
the party, called a human sacrifice.
Five victims were at once selected, placed
on number of wagons which had been
piled up for the purpose, and burned
alive. A woman, who had distinguished
herself by the violence of her religious
paroxysm, seized the shaft of the cart and
beat two young girls to death while an
other female was first trodden under foot
and then literally torn to pieces by the
fanatical crowd. Other details are given
of the horrors enacted which are utterly
unfit for publication. The Governor of
the town heard of the facts and sent a
company of soldiers to the spot, where
the whole party was arrested and placed
in confinement, thus stopping further
excuses. 1t is hardly to be wondered at
that the Russian authorities are in perplex-
ity how to deal with the members of this
sect. The inhicting of physical pains
and penalties has no terrors, but the
contrary.

From the Columbus Index.
Solomon Valley Immigration So
ciety.

Our citizens wish to know something of
this society that proposes to locate in the
South. If we are properly, informed,
charter was procured by the Right Rever-
end Mr.. Blichfeldt, from the Kansas Legis-
land in what is known in Kansas as Solomon
Valley, where about 5000 immigrants loca-
ted but being on the frontier. and attacked
several times by the Indians, the colony dis
persed and returned to Illinois.
Mr.. Blichfeldt is endeavoring to get them
in the prairie country along che line of the
Mobile and Ohio Railroad, this company
having agreed to assist him in so doing by
paying the fare, S. of each emigrant over
the Illinois Central Road, and transporting
them free over its road. They will be deliv
cred here as rapidly as they can be got to-
gether, without one dollars cost to the en-
ployer, save the necessary expense that is
incurred in feeding them after they arrive
until the employer calls for them.
A Society is formed in Columbus, with
JAS Sykes, as President, and a Board of five
Directors. AS this Society has to provide a
house for them until they are called for, it
has fixed the price of membership at 50. No
person can get one who is not member; no
member can get one without the approval
of the Directors. Mr.. B. requires this in or
der that bad and irresponsible men may not
order and not take them.
T. III. Baker, Columbus, Miss, is the Cor
responding Secretrry, and will furnish
planters and Others with all the Information
that they may require.
