In the midst Of their usefulness. They are gone

zeal; as kind and affectionate husbands anu
fathers, good citizens, and as Masons good and
true; and always practiced the principles of our
beloved order-frendship, morality and brothery
love; therefore, be 1t

THO SEA ISLAND COTTON PLANTERS.

The small yield CT Sea Island Cotton peculiar

ravages OF wOrms,l is not nearly compensated by
the greater value OF its long staple, and change
of Seed ia imperativey neutrality-suspicious.
having fully proven that the earlier maturity OF
other kinds greatly lessons the danger from
worms. The question, then, Is: The proper varie-
ties to adopt; and this s problem easier solved
than formerly, when little attention was paid to
this subject in the cultivation OF Cotton by the
great majority Of Southern Planters. The SUBJ
scrlbers have recently witnessed with pleasure
the increased interest in improved varieties ex-
hibited by the numerous responses (nearly 100 in
nrc,ber) to their letters inquiring OF Planters
about the characteristics Of all the known varie-
ties of Cotton, and the effects Of change Of cli
mate and soil on different kinds. The established
facts we have thus collected we are prepared to
apply to different soils and climates; and to any
Planter Tor association Of Planters) who will ad-
dress us, describing the characteristics Of their
localities, we will freely give the fruits OF our
knowledge. Our different correspondents have
given US the control of every variety Of seeds we
have heard Of Our list comprises as many as
twenty distinct varieties, and our specimen room
OF stalks, limbs, bolls and lint. that bave been
sent to u.s. is marvel Of its kind. We are now
prepared to fill orders (after few days notice.
for "PETIT GULF" "DICKSON'S," 'Monterey,"
"Peeler's,r "Boyds Prolific" "vick's 1oO," "Goo-
scy's,n and ~ Bale;' and, with few days addi-
tional notice, we can promise to procure almost
any other den9pination that may be ordered
The facility with which bogus varieties may be
palmed off on purchasers, induces us to say that
we are old merchants Of New Orleans and refer
confidently to all the old merchants of this city.
Liberal discounts will be made on large purchases

modern opera chair, the seat Of which works on
pivot and can be thrown against the back IN an
instant, thus allowing free ingress or egress from
the line of chairs. The workmen in every depart
ment are using the greatest dispatch yet nothing
Is hurried over or imperfectly done. One OF the
best features is the attention that has been paid
to the means Of communicating with the different
parts of the house. In New York it takes from
eight to ten minutes before the best theatres are
cleared after the performance, but Mr. Chadwick
estimates that in five minutes every one can leave
the Opera House without unnecessary jostling
or crowding. Iron gates have been placed at the
main entrance, and no one is admitted except on
an order from Mr.. Chadwick. This is wise pre-
caution, as crowd Of visitors would only impede
the workmen and 1t is far better for the public to
inspect the building when It is opened next
month for the first performance.
