DESCEREZO DEL CAFE.

Hace algun tempo que en- todos
los paises productores de cafe Sc vie
ne estudiando detenidamente ell con-
seguir un artefacto que haga la ope-
racion del descerezo en- mayor canti-
dad diaria y que, q la vez, inutilice
menos grano.
Interesados en- hacer conocer q
nuestros agricultores los medios de
salvar los inconvenientes que Sc les
presentan para obtener las mayores
ventajas de los frutos que cultivan,
procuraremos hacerles conocer, por
medic de la prensa, la maquinaria
empleada 6 perfeccionada en- el ex-
tranjero y cuya Introduction en- Ell
pats consideramos de utilidad gene
ral.
En- Filadelia Sc construye y ex~
pende hoy una maquina de descere-
zar cafe que, patentada va en- los
Estados- Unidos, produce entire otras,
la estimable yentaja de un veinte y
cinco por ciento de rendimiento en-
ell trabajo del dia, con la muy i'm
portante al mismo tempo de obtener
Sc en- ell mercado hasta cuatro centa-
vos mas por libra en- ell grano que Sc
ha descerezado en- ella sobre el de
nuestlas maquinas actuales seco en-
parapara, 8 sea ell llamado trillado.
Su inventor, ell conocido, laborioso
y modesto Sr. D. Jose Antonio Mos
quera, hacendado de cafe en- los Els
tados- Unidos de Venezuela, no Sc
permiti6 hacerla pdblica hasta que
cinco amos de practica en- su hacienda
La Guta en- Caracas, lie llevaron el con-
vencimiento de que la reforma que
INTRODUCE en- los materiales que COM
ponen Ell cilindro despulpador, en- la
cuchil'a y en- la navaja que ofrece en-
ella al pdblico son dignas de estudio
y adopcion con ventajas innegables.
Pasemos a hacer un ligero examen
de las ventajas que Sc nos ofrecen
en- ell invento del Sr. Mosquera para
que de su cotejo con las faltas de que
adolecen nuestras actuales m$quinas
resulte, como no dudamos, ell conven-
cimiento general de que su importa-
cion y adopcion por nuestros cose
cheros de cafe, es una necesidad en-
ell pats.
La maquina del Sr. Mosquera es
por su forma muy parecida a las que
Sc usan en- esta Antilla; por esta ra
zon suprimimos su description y pa,
samos a ocuparnos de 10 que consti
tuye en- 81 ell invento.
Todos los inventories 6 innovadores
de alguna de las parties 6 pleas de
que Sc componen las actuales maqui-
mas de descerezar cafe, han tropezado
con ell Inconvenience de no poder me
jorar ell cilindro de cobre botoneado
que, es opinion general, adolece de
los defectos que pasamos q enumsrar.
De la poca duracion y consiguiente
necesidad de remudar ell cobre boto-
neado mace la de hacer tornear repe-
tidas veces durante la recollection y
descerezo, ell cilindro sobre que Sc
adapta aquel, y estas suspensiones
para ell torneo del cilindro traen el
perjuicio que origina la retencion del
cafe maduro en- pila, que las mas de
las veces Sc arde y desmerece en- ca
lidad.
Los cilindros actuales quitan muy
poca pulpa q los granos de cafe que

rar algunos dias mas la SEGA del cafe

The greatest sale of thoroughbred horses
that has ever taken place In America was an
nounced for Yesterday, by Major Bark er, at the
the New York Tattersalls, Broadway and thirty
ninth street. The stock comprised the entire
stud Of race horses belonging to Col. l.. A.
Hitchcock OF Boston, Mass. The stables were
thronged with sporting men, but the purcha-
sers, numerically speaking, bore no sort Of pro-
portion to the spectators, and II was evident
that very large bids were not to be exp, cted at
first. The guctionoer tested the spirit Of the as

PETER COOPER SPEAKS.
His Sole Purpose Hard Times Harrington
"Weak Man,


The venerable candidate of the Green
back party paid his customary visit to his store
in Burling slip yesterday morning, and, on his
way back to his residence, stopped in at the
headquarters OF bis party In Union square,
where he learned that there had been news
from the West as to the vote polled for himself,
except what the morning newspapers had pub
lished. IL am not insensible," said he, to the
fearful care and responsibility attending the
performance Of the duties devolving upon the
head OF the Government. I shall be overwhelm-
ingly glad II the country decides to do with
out me.
"My sole purpose has been to enliehten the
people, OF rather to warn them OF the danger they
are exposed TO. 1t would seem as II nothing
but bribery could have brought our legislators
to pass the laws that have brought about our
financial condition. can hardly bring myself
to think that sane men took those steps, from
any other incentive. The paralysis Of trade
from which we are suffering Ia increasing the
army Of tramps, and every kind Of vice and
crime must increase In proportion. cannot
blame starving men for stealing"
During that very day, Mr.. Cooper said, a
get pecuniary assistance, one man had como 40
miles another. New York lady, needed s35 to
knew the time when there were so many needy
people. And VET" he said, " have lived in
Tue tune OF every freSluent. etOou IN ST.
PauFs churchyard and saw tho mock funeral
that followed Washington's death. My mother
wa, born where that chucrh stands, and she
could remember the cherdur dc frtsc in Duane
street to keep the Indians out"
Mr.. Cooper said the only part he had taken in
the campaign was to circulate printed copies OF
letters and speeches showing tue necessity for
innating the currency. Thousands Of dollars
had been spent IN scattering over million Of
these tracts broadcast. But" concluded he,
lit is as true now as when Pope first said 1T
When any one would save sinking land,
All hear few heed. none seem to understand"
In the West, Mr. Cooper says, he finds more
converts to bis views than In the East. Inn
pOrters and bankers oppose him here, although
some OF them are OF bis opinion, but dare not
announce the fact. lie was asked what led to
the withdrawal, at the last moment, OF Har-
rington. the soft money candidate for the Gov
ernorship Of Indiana. 81 suppose he saw how
the election was going said MIR. Cooper" and
he went over to the Republicans, returned to
his FIRST love- as Swedenborg saws"
But, 1t is rdmOred that he was paid to
do SOP"
" cannot say as TO that" said Mr.. Cooper.
but whatever the reason was. 1t was the act OF

Mr. Peter }. ODonohuc and the Guardian
savings Institution.

On motion 10y the dep0sitors and other
creditors Of tue Guardian Savings Institution to
have Peter j. O'DonOhue the present receiver
OF the bank, removed. Judge Lawrence ap-
pointed ex Judge joseph :. Dosworth referee to
examine into the facts OF the case and report
upon them The referees report has now been
submitted to Judge Lawrence and awaits his
confirmation. Ii cts forth;
Ffrst-Ihat Jeremiah Quinlau was appointed
receiver Of the bank Nov. Il, ISL, Joseph j..
o'Donohue becoming his surety. One Of the
considerations for his becomi surety was the
appointment OF Joseph Riley his brother-in-law
as clerk and tookkeeper Ia the defunct bank at
a salary Of 5000. Riley was then without en-
ploymon t II was also understood that Quinan
was willing to divide his fees and commissions
with O'DOnohue. Riley took his position the
day Of Quinlan's appointment. About the l2th
of February. 1872, he drew $4,000 from the trust
Company TO pay depOsitors. or that amount he
handed S5,OOJto Quinian. and the latter returned
S25OD To him. ltiley kept $3.50 and gave 5000
to O'Donohue, VINO stil retains the money. la
Apri Quinlan Appropriated SeOuD more oil the
banks money. OF which ne gave $1,000 to Riley,
who transferred II to O'Donohue. No entries
were made OF the appropriation Of these
moneys. Quinlan said at the time to Riley that
they we're part OF his fees, but he mad not col
lected or disbursed money on which his com
missions would amount TO any considerable part
VI these suns.
Quinlan was removed Jan. IL, 1873, and Peter
j. ODunohue. the present receiver, was aI-
pointed. Joseph j. O'DOnohue became his
surety .lso. For QuinlAn's dcfalcatiuns. 10 the
amount of the bond signed by Joseph d. DOno-
hue, the latter is liable, aud It was the duty Of
