PATENT COTTON PRES 50!
Simplicity Strength; Durability

As I succeeded in getting n patent
granted me, on the 10th day of August,
1870, on Cotton and Hay Presses, and
have manufactured and sold tor the two
seasons past, ! now feel fully assured that
l can give perfect satisfaction to all who
may want to purchase Press. | will
manufacture and sell at Bolivar, Tenn,
fer 5000 cash, and guarantee each Press
to work we'll / will also sell state,
Chunty and Royalty Rights on good
terms.
! claim for my invention over all other
presses this: that my gripping blocks
used in pressing are cast ia solid blocks,
with steel points therein, which grips the
upright iron bar as soon as the power is
applied, and holds fast. As soon as the
power is taken off the blocks will slide
down the bar perfectly losse, ready for
renewal Of hold, virtue which no other
press has. The steel points mentioned
can be taken out and put in at pleasure
by any common smith in the country.
The u sr that | use is the common
straight ieaver, applied jirect to the grip
ing blocks, which forces the follower
down on the cotton with great ioTcs ADD
without friction. The working Of the
gripiRg blocks on main bars forms cons
piete rachel as natural rs though they
were cast thereon, rendering Vt safe from
Slipping. Ny follower is run up and
down by rope and windiass, so arranged
as to work very easily. a

Trade Marks.

Every person, or firm, doing business,
no matter of what kind or nature, so
long as Il is houorable, should have a
trade mark. 1t serves as an advertisement,
and the first mere nominal cost Is a trihe
Yet in q year business the same amount
OF circular advertising would cost huns
dreds of dollars The trade mark is a
distinction which cannot be initiated, as
the law protects it. Americans, who eN-
eel in the manufacture Of certain classes
of goods, and place their goods in Euro
pean markets, soon discover that they
are not only in competition with the best
makers of the same line Of goods, find
t2at their trade mark protects them from
imitation and counterfeit Ingenuity can
be called into exercise by the use oftrade
marks Some use an almost indcscrlba~
bic monogram; others are eccentric or
UNIQUE cues, bat the most appropriate is
the concentration Of aptitude for the
especial business in which parties are
engaged Ii a pyrotechnist, he would
not use for a trade mark OF ire en-
zine engaged in putting ont the flames OF
a building. There should be an eternal
fitnesc of things. There are many peo~
pie engaged in the same business, yet 1t
would not be at all difficult to have au
especial originally in their designs. Let
manufacturers put a trade mark upon
all their productions, and let dealers DO
the same to all the wares they send out
1t is a protection to the former and OF
business benefit to the other.

The Value of mnnav.

TneY island of Manhattan on which
New York city DOW stands, was bought
by the Dutch from the Indians in 1926
for the tri8ing sum of $25. TIE assessed
value of wealth on the island in 1872 is
about $500 900, 600, the real value is not
less than $4,000, 100000 and may be
even double this OF course it will be
said that the Dutch made good invest
ment of their $25 and no doubt they
did But if that $25 had been put out
at interest at ten per cen t on the first of
October, 1926, and the interest itself an
nually invested OF ten per cent. also, the
product on the first of October 1872,
would have been $780, $50, ITO, 9G2-or
more than twenty>six thousand millions
This is three hundred times as great as
the assessed value 0 f property IN New
GOrk,and nearly as great IS the sstimat-
ed value of all the property in the United
States.

Skeletons Exhumed

The Memphis Ledger of the 2nd inst,
says f.sf #-e sae e-
Yesterday, while workmen were enga~
ged in excavating for a cellar on Beal
street, west of Shabby, they exhumed a
coffin containing a human skeleton, and
during the process of excavation since
then three others This morning a ply
siolc gical examination of the skull was
made by the scientific reporterof the
Ledger and number of other learned
gentlemen, and the conclusion arrived at
that at least one of the skeletons was
that of a colored person. The others were
so much decom posed as to defy even con
lecture When or why these bodies
were buried there it is impossible to
surmise-as it was never burial ground
or hospital site-except upon the hypo-
thesis of human deprayity and secret
interments by the occupants Of the little
shanties that stood or this plot of
ground The coffin was deposited in the
earth about three feet below the surface,
and it is believed was not under ground
more than ten or twelve years May 1t
not be that some bloody murder was
thus committed and concealed during
