pleasure in bearing testimony to its utility
and the perfect manner in which it assorted
peaches, separating the fruit into three quail

fifteen baskets, and the time was only three
minutes. Peach growers need not be appre-

hen eggs pass over the rollers without even
cracking the shell. Believing the machine

NEW YORK. Ian. 25. 1875


Mr.. John A. Jones-Dear Sir Your favor
asking for my opinion of the sale of peaches
culed by your machine, is just at hand, and
it gives me pleasure to be able to add my
testimony to the value of your invention.
The advantage in selling fruit culled by your
machine is very evident. 1t is only necessary
to turn out Il few baskets to show "the trade'
that they are the same size all through. to
make them sell quicker and higher than other
fruit culled and faced in the usual way. Ma
chine cnled peaches are particularly desira-
BILE for shippers, who repack from baskets
into crates, rs there is no loss from small
peaches. As a salesman, know the advan-
tage it is TO be able to open car and state by
consulting the manifest, just the size of the
peaches In a short time buyers as well as
salesmen, will understand the number of the
gauge to represent peaches of certain size,
and the labor will be much lessoned time
saved. and consequently the peaches got ON
the market earlier in the dav, the result of
which we all know will improve prices |
look upon your machine as being Of great
beueft 20 peach growers, particularly during
a 'glut;" in addition to facilitating, han ling
and selling, by opening the spaces, and leav-
ing good percentage of your smallest peaches
in the orchard, you thus save freight and ad-
vance the price. Your machine in market
deserves the success believe it will have.

The GREAT Exc1TEMENT.-The death
of Gov Bramlette in no wise interferes
with the progress of the last Gift Con-
cert, nor will that or anything else pre-
vent the drawing from taking place on
the 9th of February. So certain is
this, that all the money paid for tickets
will be promptly refunded in case the
drawing does not take place on that
day. Mr.. Briggs has conducted all the
details of the former concerts, and is
giving his whole time, his known skill,
and his great energy, to make the last
the greatest drawing. He offers, in ad-
dition to the excitement of the drawing
itself, Concert by Gilmore's Great Or
chestra. perhaps the best in the world;
admission to which can only be had by

THE PunIIc LaanARY,s L.asr DRAWN,

The PUBLIC L1sRARY's LAST DRAWING.
In response to letters and inquiries,
we do not hesitate to say, in the most
positive terms, that the Fifth Concert of
the Public Library of Kentucky will
take place February 27th, beyond the
possibility of a doubt. The death of
Gov. Bramlette does not interfere with
the business of the Office, as the Board
of Trustees have appointed G. NJ. Briggs
(Goy. Bramlette's law partner and the
active manager heretofore), to conduct
the office. ALI the money received is
safe in bank, and will be paid to hold
ers of prizes Immediately after the Draw
ing, and with the same certainty and
promptness as heretofore. The draw
ing will take place as announced, and
those who secure prizes will get their
money beyond the contingency of
doubt. -"

their names.
Mr.. Dupre said that several of his friends
had refused to sign the protest against the
compromise, they understanding that he had
changed his vote on the compromise propo-

He explained the motive that prompted
him to ask the privilege of making the
change, stating that he did it SO as to become
one of the majority, with view Of moving a
reconsideration. 1t was merely parliamentary
tactics, and he desired his friends to under
stand it as such. He also urged all of them
to join earnestly in the protest against the
of the compromise proposition.

CONFIDING.

AS illustrative of the beautiful faith which
some OF the advocates of compromise have IN
the justice and honest intentions OF MIR.
Wheeler, the gentleman who conceived and
offered the humiliating terms set forth IN the
much talked of plan of adjustment, it ap-
pears that they entertain the idea that the
Conservatives will be allowed to walk in upon
the II 4hn organization to the number OF not
less than sixty-tve, making thus very hand
some majority
This guileless confidence is beautiful, but
is not at all practical in this emergency, for
there can be nothing understood in this mat
ter, nothing whatever; and all the advantages
contemplated by our people in consummating
this adjustment are understand, for nothing
is guaranteed them, nothing but a majority,
and that majority may mean one as well as it
may mean twenty nine.
1t is confidently asserted that with the
majority it naturally follows that the Con-
servatives will have the Spealership, but by
what course of reasoning this conclusion is
arrived at. in the face of the fact that by the
cation of the Hahn House is recognized, is
beyond our ken. unless it implied, as was as
serted by prominent Conservative advocate
of compromise, that Immediately upon being
admitted to the floor, with majority as pro-
missed by Mr.. Wheeler, certain parliamentary
tactics will be resorted to, whereby Hahn will
be unseated and Witt installed in less than
fifteen minutes
VIII this contemplated parliamentary chi |
cancry be in accordance with the pledges ex-
torted by Mr.. Wheeler?

WHO ARE THE MURDERERS?

On the 14th of September when the armed
legions of Kellogg, under Longstreet and
Badger marched up under orders from the
usurper Kellogg to dsperse the citizens who
had assembled to assert the great constitu-
tional rights of freedom Of speech, freedom
to bear arms and freedom from arbitrary and
Illegal seizures, what did we see?
The people rose up, and the patriots of
New Orleans, by one determined effort, by a
struggle which was short sharp and decisive,
dispersed the trained minions of the de facto
criminal, and indicated the courage, the
honor, and the patriotism Of Louisianians.
The men engaged in that fight, than which
none more glorious was ever fought, the men
who, at the bidding Of patriotism and with the
full sanction and consent of their fellow-citi-
zens, took their lives in their hands and
marched out to die if need be in defense of
sacred rights, are to a man opposed to the
compromise.
We search the list of those in favor of the
scheme in vain for n single name of a man
who proved his devotion to liberty and to the
State, 10y risking his life therefor in the grand
struggle against the usurpation. Are these
men to be ignored? Shall they be stultitied
by the action OF their Representatives Are
dollars worth more than blood9
Is the protesting blood of the glorious dead
TO be ignored
We count the name of one man who fronted
the ianissaries of the murderous usurper on
the 18th of September as of more value than
host of those who have always been willing
to strike hands with Kellogg
Argue about the matter as we may, the
acceptance Of this Wheeler compromise will
cast reproach upon the dead heroes of the
18th OF September, and will be equivalent to
a proclamation that .those who bore arms
against the Kellogg government and who re-
sisted its armed soldiers were themselves
murderers. We were either right or we were
wrong. If right, kellogg and his minions
were the murderers; if wrong, and this COM
promise means we were wrong then the citi-
zens OF New Orleans are murderers or abet-
tors of murderers. People Of New Orleans,
what is your verdict?
The New Orleans bulletin. [volume] (New Orleans [La.]) 1874-1876, 1875-02-27

One of the Conservative majority who voted
for the disgraceful Wheeler compromise, it is
said, ate late supper, retired and dreamed
that the Baton Rouge platform, which he was
pledged to sustain, had in some curious and
inexplicable way assumed the shape Of a ter
rble boa constructor; that the serpent
tightening its folds, and was about to strange
him when he awoke, like Richard III on the
field of Bosworth, in quaking terror, crying:
