A New COTTON PREss.-The Memphis
Apalancbs makes mention of q new cotton
press which, if correctly represented, seems
destined to supercede all others now in use.
It can compress 20 bales or $4,000 pounds into
such compass as will enable them to occupy
the space bow necessary to contain 81 oaies.
size, and either cylindrical or octagonal in
shape Ninety bales can depressed in an hour,
and it is claimed that not only can the press
be run with more economy than any other now
in use, but that the tying of the bands and the
sewing of the heads can all be done after the
bales pass out of the COMPRISING chamber,
thus saving the time that is lost in doing this
work while the bale is in the press, as is now
the case The AvaIanche says the press, which
is called the e"Annihilator," will be in opera
ton at Memphis, New Orleans and Savannah
by the time the present growing crop begins to
come forward.

AN OuTRAGE.-I is our duty to record one
of the most brutal outrages that was ever COM
mitted in this or any other county. This out
rage was committed on the night of the Both
June, at the residence of Mr.. Harrison Scott,
who il one of our best citizens, and who resides
in the western portion of the County, near MT.
Gallagher post Office. at the time, Mr.. Scott
was absent on business, having gone to Honea
Path for the purpose Of selling cotton.
About L O'Clock on the night mentioned, a
band of negroes, supposed to be some ten or
twelve in number, came to his premises, ana
first made an attack upon the store-room, IN
which little boy was sleeping. The little
fellow, becoming frightened, ran out, and was
fred upon, but fortunately escaped without IN
jury. They then made an attack upon the
dwelling house, in which they found Mrs. Scott,
her two children and her mother. Her mother
fed from the house, and was fired upon without
effect. Entering, they demanded money OF Mrs
Scott, or information as to the place in which
it was kept Mrs. Scott refusing. to tell, they
proceeded to search the room, breaking. In
pieces splendid bureau and smashing things
generally, amid oaths and all manner of foul
language. Failing in their search, they re-
turned to Mrs. Scott, dragged her from her bed
by the hair of her head, fired pistols around
her person, and finally presented them at her
bosom and swore that she must either tell or
die. She was still firm. They then carried her
daughter through the same ordeal, with like
result. Selling upon little son, they held him
up by the hair of the head, and swore if he did
not tell them where they could find the money
they would cut his throat from ear to ear. In
his fright the child referred them to certain
trunk, where they found and took some $500 In
gold.and silver-mostly gold.
All this was done amid the most horrid oaths
and abusive language After this the band
returned to the store-room, where they obtain
ed some 500 more, aud were only prevented
from sacking it by the gathering of the neigh,
bors who had been awakened BY the fringand

How to Live Long.

We copied from a recent number of Apple
TINS Journal an account given by the poet Bry-
ant of the mode of life which he had pursued
for many years, and to which ma, fairly be at
tributed his remarkable health of mind and
body at very advanced age. a Georgian,
who processes to be 96.years of age, and car

ants letter to give his own method of preserv-
ing health, which is somewhat different from
that of the poet. He says: @

The Habit Of Swearing.

Of all bad habits, it would be difficult to
name one that has less reason or proVocstlon
in it than that of using profane and vulgar
language. When coolly viewed, the act of one
human being calling violently on his Maker to
deliver oyer his fellow man to condemnation is
wicked in the extreme lit is vain and irreve-
rent use of his Makers name, and it is the ex-
preston of hateful and internal wish. But
leaving the wickedness of the habit out of ac-
count, it is useless and irrational. Itbnngs no
pleasure, nor comfort, nor relief. No swearer,
is ever the wiser, richer or happier for his
curses. He cannot infict the evil he invokes.
He may curse his enemy for alifetime, without
turning one hair of his enemy's head white or
black, by the process. The language furnishes
all the words and terms needed to give strength
and yigor to expression, without resortlng to
oatf1s and curses. All the words needed to ex-
press indignation and wrath, even, are to be
found in it. An oath does not give strength or
emphasis to the truthful mans Yea and all the
oaths and maledictions that can be imagined
cannot give an atom of strength to the liars
nav. Swearing is chiefly habit; the oath,
which well bred man utters in a moment of
passion or vexation, may be overlooked, for 1T
is, perhaps an accident; but for che foul vol
lies of oaths and curses that the habitua swearer
pours out in ordinary conversation, or on slight
proYocations, there is no shadow. for; excuse.
They are shame to himself and disgust to
his acquaintance. Some men are such slaves
of the vicious habit, that they swear without
knowing it; they converse in dialect OF oaths.
They would be disgusted themselves if they
could see one of their simple conversations ia
ken down in short and put in print with coarse
oaths bristling all along the Line of their re-
marks. Profanity and vulgarlty do not always
go together, but they are apt to. The swearer
IS in danger of becoming vulgar, and the yul-
gar man IS almost invariably swearer. When
both habits meet in the same individual, they
make himintensely offensive to all pure-lninded
people. 1t is imagined by some that an occa;
sional oath or little vulgarity give spice and
flavor to conversation but if it does it is
very offensive flavor There is nothing more
charming than chaste and simple language,
and it is worth any young mans while to cult
vate the habit of using it: An oath would not
be considered a flavor to the conversation OF a
modest and beautiful maiden s neither can it
be Justly held to add to the spirit OF piquancy
of the conversation of a man.
