Capt. G. ID. Bustamante is introducing in
this and the adjoining States. As pioneer
in the machinery business at Koscusko
Miss, as far back as 865, by indomitabie
energy and thorough application to his
enterprise, he has succeeded in building up
a business that at no distant day must as
sumo gigantic proportions. He exhibited
to us his settlement made recently with the
J. q. Hoadly Steam Engine Co., showing
! that in tive years he had sold $33, 9O8 70 Of
Hoadley's engines alone, besides engines of
seven other makers during the same period,
as we'll as all other descriptions of machin-
cry and agricultural implements, amongst
his recent sales being a fine Rice Huller and
polisher, worth $725 to a party at Beaumont,
Texas. Having been engaged in the bust
ness ten years, he has learned just what the
country wants in machinery. etc, and,
making the business a speciality, he devotes
his whole time and attention to it, keeping
himself thoroughly posted as to all the late
inventions to save labor. His establishment
in this city is a perfect museum of novelties
for this section, and we invite all having
any kind of machinery to buy to give him
u call or correspond with him. Before
closing this notice we cannot omit to COM
mend to our friends the one and two-horse

not costing fortune, they are within the

THE Sociable given by the Temperance
Council, last Friday night, was the crowninq
glory Of the festive season. Three large
tables were covered with cakes, ice-cream
confectionaries, etc, and everything was
nicely conducted. The music was good, and
the dancing kept up until late hour. The
Council is fast gaining the reputation Of
giving the most pleasant entertainments
enjoyed in the city, and is also becoming a
popular and strong organization, having at
present about $50 members. Long may II

The farmer of the day demands that
his paper should be not a text book,
but repository of the experiences and
practices of our best farmers and
writer's; not guide to be implicitly
and literally followed, but store
house of models where farmers of diff
ferent views engaged in different
specialties may find copies or plans
upon which they can improve; not
vehicle for trundling the pet theories
Of an editor, but for carrying to its
readers the views and opinions of prac-
tical men engaged in the various in.
dustrial pursuits; not collection of
formal essays, but record of progress
in agricultural matters-a bulletin of
what is going on among farmers-of
what they are doing to elevate and
improve their occupation, and a me-
dunn of commune a ion between them.
Nor should any agricultural paper
ever attempt to teach farming; for the
editor Of any paper to set himself up
as schoolmaster and say to his read
ers just what they shall do and how
they shall do it, is the veriest nonsense.
The richer an agricultural paper is in
suggestions and hints, the less it at
tempts to teach, and the more it
endeavors to draw out from its readers
what they know, the more successful
it will become and the more completely
will it fill its appropriate place. .-Ru-
