At Fray Beptos. on the Uruguay
river, 10 great factory for the prep
aration Of extract Of beef. The in
dustry is SO extensive that popula-
ton Of about Eve thousand live BY it.
Droves Of wild cattle are confined in
yards adjoining the slaughter house.
and lassoed one by one, stabbed with
q large dirk knife, and dressed with
celebrity equal to the operations of a
Chicago pork packing establishments.
The meat 10 separated from the bones,
and run between grooved rollers,
which tear and press it into coarse
shredA The next op .ration is to
make the meat into soup by boiling
it thoroughly in shallow pans. The
fat 10 skimmed of, and the soup,
when boiled to q thick, brownish
paste, is filtered and further reduced
by evaporation to a jelly. It is then
ready to be canned for expectation.
The apparatus for this process is quite
elaborate, and great care and skill
are required in the manipulation. The
hides Of the cattle are roughly tanned
and exported. The fat is also canned
and sent abroad. The bones are
ground for soil. Scarcely bit Of
the animal is wasted.

The con6dence Of the Southern peo>
pie in the crellulity Of their Northern
brethren il some thing astonishing.
In the Vicksburg riots, for example,
we are expected to believe that thirty
white men attacked 100 cOlored men,
and drove them pell-inell into the
woods, though, the latter were well
armed, and had marched on the town
with the intention Of giving battle.
So We are told that though the me-
groes were strongly intrenched In one
Of the old forts, and the whites were
exposed in attacking them, yet, after
q desperate fight, the blacks were
routed, losing sixty or eighty killed,
while the whites lost but one, and
this only BY 40 accident. The mir
acle of the Hebrew children was moth
ing to this. When we come to the
truth Of the matter, We shall probably
find that it was simply another Me-
chanics' Institute or Colfax massacre.

fully thrown around this patriotic work the

The Bulletin is surprised that the
Returning Board have gone Quietly
on with their duties and in due time
made their report utterly regardless
of the denunciations and threats with
which they have been assailed. The
finger Of scOrn has become stiff
and tired pointing at them they
have not regarded In the least either
the finger or the seorner, the threaten
ed rope has dangled in the air, but
they recognize it as a "lope of mind"
a phantasmal thing pleasantly sug-
gestive to White League imagiua-
tions. but not dangerous under exist
ing circumstances. Even the Yemem-
brance Of the fourteenth of Septem-
Der has not intimidated them. Those
magic words have lost their charm !:
no dreadful spirits rise to do their
bidding; at least none powerful
enough to influence the action Of
Governor Wells, General Anderson,
and Messrs. Casanave aud Kenner.
Those gentlemen have made their re-
port, as we prophesied, according to
their own understanding of their du-
ties under the law, and with no dread
of the consequences. Having done
SO, they have quietly retired to their
usual avocations, not hiding them
selves from their fellow citizens, but
simply assuming the responsibility Of
their acts ~ men, confident that if
some disappointed political scbemers
growl and snarl, the majority will
commend.-N. O. Republican.
