The strike has ceased, except in
Pennsylvania, along the lines Of Tom
Scott. Scranton and Wakesbarrc,
seem the great points of dissatisfac-
ton. Much comment is now inlulg-
ed in by the thinker with regard to
the cause, effect and final result of
these strikes, but this comment so
far, is idle and gushy, given from mo.
tives in all instances, therefore no
one can judge of the end.

runs lighter than any other gin, thus
having u great advantage for planters
who wish to run by horse power. All
the numerous planters who use the Eayl"
Cotton Gin will certify to the fact that
! when their cotton n sent to market it
always brings the highest market pvcr,
as no other gin can produce u finer OK ~
