DRYING BEEF.-It is stated that flies
can be kept from beef hung up to dry, ia
warm weather, by the use Of black pepper.
Heat a shovel rod hot, and sprinkle tho
pepper upon it. The smoke will rout the
flies at once. Follow this up three or four
days, as occasion may require, and the 6ies
will give il up.

Eggs an 'Fhier.-A correspondent Of the
Massachusetts, PloHghmdn says that no
has preserved eggs in winter for fifteen years,
so that when used they seem rs fresh rs
when laid. His recipe is:
'Onc measure (pinO common lime; one
measure (pinD common salt; dissolved in
two gallons hot rain water.
Put the eggs in your frkin or keg, fill
ed nearly full with this preparation, in the
above proportions, covering them all with
the liquid. IL they are fresh when ;hus
placed, have never known them to como
out otherwise. The Only effect We have es-
er noticed is that the shells grow tender
(and the eggs mus, be carefully hsndled)

young Woodsou and another young man had
left town in the morning with tho intention cf

on the roadside aud commenced talking to some
girls who were passing by or had gotten with

pistol, asked one Of the girls 90 shoot the loads

Mr.. EDITOR: There seems to be very
great difference of opinion in regard to the
motive power to he employed in the new
enterprise now on foot in Bolivar l say in
Bolivar, as it seems to be Bolivar enter
prise, from the talk of few who l have no
doubt will take all the stock and run it as a
Bolivar enterprise Now, to then l would
say, if they expect to get stock subscribed
by the people of the county. it must be
county enterprise, and got up with view of
making money for those who invest in it,
and not for the sole purpose Of Building up
Bolivar. 1t will take money to build
factory, not gas. Lawyers can expound
law, but when they try to make nine yards
Lowells from one pound of cotton it is a
very different thing Let them confne
themselves to what they know, and do not
try to gull the people with such stuff 1.-THE
citizens of the county go into anything of
the kind, let them go in knowing what they
are doing. Now, don't say that nine yards
goods cannot be made from one pound Of
cotton but that the class of goods that will
pay, and expected TO be made in Bolivar,
cannot be made from that amount We
have four fine water-powers near Bolivar,
and it can be very easily shown that water
| is cheaper than steam, and if the Bolirar
enterprise should be located at either one, it
will help Bolivar as much as if it was 10.
Gated in town, and be much more profitable
to those inves ting in it. We will now COM
pare in each:

know the amount needed to supply the

GoLp.-The gold panic continues, and
there seems to be great excitement through
out the country in consequence of the con-
tinued decline of the precious metal. Gold
closed in New York on the 9th inst, ot1l04
Many merchants In that city, Chicago, Den
yer, Memphis, Nashville, and elsewhere, are
giving out silver IN change for greenbacks.
This begins to look like some people had a
belief that a speedy return to specie pay
ment was n sight Look out for the after
clap We have not got any greenbacks,
but if we did,Rs long as ninety five cents in
silver could be squeezed out of one dollar in
currency, we'd let it squeeze When gold
goes down cotton goes down; cotton comes
from the South; but no matter how low the
yellow boys may sink in the COMMERCIAL
scale, bacon and northern produce holds up
to extortionate rates. Keep your eve on
this, and when the spectators have got
your cotton, gold will surely 90 up.
