THE TELEGRAPH Rs.-The strike
among the telegraph operators of the Western
Union Company still continues. Press dis
patches were received at o later hour than usua
last night, and were sent from Washington vial
the Western offices, Atlanta and Augusta. Since
the STRIKE dispatches have accumulated with
fearful rapdty at al OF the oices, and the opera
tors on duty can only effect clearance from
their files by incessant work. 1t Is thought that
the company have already sustained loss OF
s5o, 900 by the strike, and this amount Is being
augmented almost hourly. Some idea OF the
general character OF the strike may be formed
when 1t is stated that in New York OF 900 opera
tors only four are on duty. Philadelphia has 226,
and only two or three OF these are at work.
Washington, Richmond and the large offices else
where were in the same deserted. condition. Ope-
rators have been brought from the small country
ofaces, but these are both green and slow. The
superlntendents and chiefs are themselves work
ing the wires, but want practice, and are not as
efficient as the experts. Mistakes are frequent,
and the delay in transmitting messages is very
detrimental to all business circles. Thus far the
offices In South Carolina, Georgia and Florida
have not joined with the strikers, but these have
in their employ hardly over 500 operatives, while
the strikers number some 5000. The latest news
ff6n New York states that botn parties are firm,
and there Is hardly any prospect of compro-
mise being Effected during the present week.

T1HE WATT PLOUGH TRIUMPHANT!

This PLOUGH is now the leading Plough Of the
Middle anu Cotton States.
Among the hundreds OF testimonials we have
from practical Planters and Fa' merS, we would
call attention to the following extract from let

is the delight Of the negro. Besides doing the
best work that have ever seen any Plough do, 1t
runs with more ease to the ploughman, and the
draft to the animal is lighter than any Plough |
have ever used.
"Your Plough has already become a necessity
to me, and would feel ruined without 1t. | am
satisfied we have saved, annually, thousands OF
dollars in mules alone. 1t Is the Cheapest Plough

my fellow-planters, this most valuable Plough.n
Colonel Lockett commenced using these PloughS
In the spring OF 1868, and now has more than two
hundred and fifty t250l OF them on his plantations.
We have testimonials as emphatic from leading
planters Ia North Carolina, South Carolina, GeOr-
