EXTRAORDINARY BALE OF cor
TON
what Has Finally Becomc of a
PREM N M Hns,k


what Has Finally BECOME of a
Premium Bale.
The following paragraph from the New
York Herald, Of Saturday last, gives en-
interesting history of the bale Of cotton
which took the premium at the st. Louis
Fair last October
A sample of the finest bale Of cotton
ever produced was exhibited at the New
York Cotton Exchange yesterday. The
weight OF the bale was 443 pounds, which,
IN the aggregate, realized the respectable
sum OF SO, 312. 20-an average of $7.48
per pound. The cotton was raised By W.
d. McShaw, Lee county, Mississippi,
was picked by himself, wife and
daughter in their parlor, and took the first
premium of $500 for the best bale of short
staple cotton offered at the st. Louis Fair
last October. Again, it took the sweep
stake prize of 81, 900 offered for the best
bale of either long or short staple. After
this MIR. MoShaw donated the cotton to
the Southern Educational Society, which
offered 1t on the st. Louis Corn Exchange,
and sold it to DIR. d. G.. Tut
at thirty cents per pound. Mr..
Tut, in turn, presented it to the
same society, when it was again sold at
twenty-five ceuts per pound. Again it was
presented to the society, when it realized
thirty eight cents per pound, the buyer in
this CASE presenting it as formerly. After
this it was not offered for sale by the 80
ciety, but was rsffied for 81, 900, and after
wards sold and resold, to be finally pur-
chased by Messrs. Shryock & Rowland, of
st. Louis, who shipped it to Messrs Nor
ton, Slaughter & Co, of this city, for the
purpose of getting it'so far away as 10 pre-
ventit being entered for the 81, 900 premium
to be offered at the Fair in October next,
as well as to test the appreciation of North
ern factors and manufacturers of the in
dustry of Mrs. McShaw and daughter,
whose fair hands have prepared for exhi-
bition, beyond doub', the finest bale of
cotton ever grown in any country. Messrs.
Norton, Slaughter d 90. report the sale of
this cotton at fifty cents per pound,
through Messrs. S. Mum, Son & Co, cot
ton brokers, to Mr.. Jonathan Earl, treasu-
rer of Norfolk and New Brunswick Hosiery
Company, of New Brunswick, n. j.
At the request of Mr.. Earl, MIR. L. J.
Slaughter will write Mrs. McShaw for
measurement of herself and daughter, who
will be presented with full undersuits
manufactured from this remarkable cotton.

Concert of the Lauderdaie Orpha ms.

The concert by the Confederate orphans
from Lauderdale Springs, Mississippi,
given at Concert Hall last night, was very
moderately attended. Really the attend
snce was not so large as the worthy object
in view and the diversified entertainments
merited. The exercises consisted of de-
clsmatioD, speeches, dialogues, songs, etc.,
in which some thirty of the orphans parti-
cipated in q manner highly creditable to
themselves, aud that showed high degree
of solicitude and efficiency in the promo
ton of their moral aud intellectual culture,
as well as their physical comforts by those
having them IN charge. The Lsuderdale
Orphans Home was originally built for a
Confederate Hospital in Mississippi during
the war, and there many brave Southrons
went to their final sleep. Since the war
the building, including some 300 acres of
ground, have been purchased for the pur-
pose indicated. The object of these con-
certs is to obtain additional funds to COM
plete substantial and comfortable brick
buildings, in lieu of the old ones, by the
advent of winter There are near 400
orphans at tho Home. Those of the
orphans who appeared here last night go
to Lebanon this morning. They will ap-
pear again in this city on Saturday night,
when they will proceed to st. Louis,
whittier they have been invited. Success
attend them.
