After all the croakings of the discomfort

two-thirds yield, as well in our own State as
in the Cotton States south of us. Here
aboutswe do not set up as q cotton growing
community; we have, however, some pretty
good patches, and one of these lots, of seven
hundred acres, will yield three hundred and
fifty bags of five hundred pounds each.
This is doing remarkably well, when we re-
member that the season was very unpropi-
tious. Had the latter rains come at an
earlier day, this field of seven hundred acres
would have turned out six hundred bags.

and brought into the window of another
room. During the session there was the
rushing sound of wind, the chipping of a
bird heard, and luminous emanations around
Homes head, which, at times, changed into
the form of tongues or jets of fame Then
entranced again, he spoke in an unknown
tongue for time, and then the spirits said
they had that day been discussing The sub
ject OF the miracles at the day of Pentecost,
and that the spirits present, aided by
higher intelligence, had produced the sound
of the wind, of the bird descending of the
unknown tongues with the interpretations,
and the tongues of fire, to show thas the
same phenomenon could occur now that
transpired in the interrupted Christian ages
The remarkable phenomenon recorded in
this book, of nearly 200 pages, issued only
for private circulation, are thrillingly inter-

much speculation just now as to the
views of the National Conservative

Some of our people are under the
that this new party hold
all the bad views aud ideas of the
expired Confederacy, but we are
inclined to believe that the seces.
sion and extreme rebel views has
+ retty well died out. The Conser-
vatives of Virginia have adopted
the Constitution and will ratify the
18th Amendment. The views Of
the Conservatives of Mississippi are
thus briefly set forth by the Colum-

s'Upon the broad platform of
universal amnesty and universal
suffrage, equality before the law,
and exact justice to all men regard

These are noble, generous, prin-

Of the different attachments of new family
machine which have secured the attention and ap-
proval of customers that for embroidering, like
the Hemmer, is one of the few instruments which
will please and satisfy the observer of its real
value. 1t is simple in structure, that any one
who on our machine use it, and without
instruction. 1t may be attached to or detached
from ihe machine in an instant. Without lengthy
description, and then, it would be difficult to
describe the great variety work that thisltte in
strument will do. The reader must not suppose
that what speak of is mere chain stitch opera
ton. which is sometimes humorously termed em-
broideiy. If desired three colors of any kind of
thread may be used any one time, and the colors
thread may be changed at the will of the opera
tor, by removing the spools in and putting 9TH
ers in their stead thus many as few colors
may be used as the operator wishes. in the embroi-
dering of any garment. great variety of results
are produced by the manner in which the tensions
are regulated Different results may be produced
while the machine is in motion by simply changing
the tensions Results vary according to the length
of stitches kinds coors and tensions ofthe threads,
as well as sizes of the needles used. The Embroi-
derer will any kind of thread The use of zephyr
worsted certain purposes gives very pleasing re-
suits In order to get just idea of this valuable
attachment it will be necessary to see it in opert-
tion.

The disorder was caused by the bit

Finally at IL o'clock, DR.. Genna of
