COT10N.SEED OIL.
4 New Use for COtiOn.SeCd oil, Instead
Of Manufacturing II into Palm
and olive Oils.

The New York Bulletin states that
cOtton.seed oil has, for some time past,
figured conspicuously among our promi-
nent articles of commerce. on account Of
the valuable uses it is made to serve.
The cake is exported largely, and the
refined oil is growing in Importance as q
substitute for palm-oil for saponaceous
purposes in this country and abroad
and, in addition to this, it is shipped in
considerable quantities to Mediterranean
ports, and, after a little doctOring, re-
shipped here as the oliyeoil of commerce
to no little extent. Numerous unsuc.
cessful attempts have been made to give
the oil the necessary qualities as dry
ing.oil for painters use, but, neyerthe-
less, experiments have continued, and
now a party residing at Capleville,
near Memphis, Tennessee, announ-
ces that the desideratum has been
reached. lie states that he has dis.
covered a comparatively non-expensive
operation by which the cotton-seed oil
can be made equal to linseed oil for this
puTpOSt, anu CllSo al lAlothHNN hhS'N 81
house was painted, some eight months
ago, with cotton-seed oil as substitute
for linseed oil, on which the paint is as
bright now as on the day it was applied.
The process discovered makes the GOTTEN
seed oil dry oil for house painting thst
is said to have no superior. II now
remains to have a trial of it in the diff
ferent climates, and, in the event of its
success, cotton planters will find a
material addition TO the value of their
seed, while to consumers there will no
doubt be considerable saving, as very
heavy duty has to be paid on Calcutta
linseed, from which the best grades of
linseed oil are crushed. The greatest
saving, however, will be in the southern
states, as large sums are spent annually
in our northern markets for linseed oil
for use in that quarter. Then there is a.
possibility for further outlet. Large
Quantities of linseed are exported from
this country, and if cotton-seed oil can
be made of desirable quality, the cheap
ness of price will do the rest"

The London Times of the last date has
an elaborate article, setting forth that
there is a terrible scramble for gold by all
the European nations; that bullion is
uncommonly and alarmingly scarce; that
no gold was received from Russia last
wear, while $40, 100000 Of gold was sent
to Germany; that the United States has
suspended, as much as possible, its ex-
ports of gold, hedging for resumption;
That France has $500, 900, 900 of gold in
the vaults of its national bank and that
the extraordinary demands have not
only been large, but extreme; and gold
Is yery scarce and dear when all circum-
stances pointed to ease. 1t says that II
the Bland silver bill does not pass, the
limited States will need 10 accumulate

showing has valuable lesson in it. Ihe
distress of all the gold sections and the
prosperity and gold wealth OF France
which uses silver as a standard Of value,

WAR IN THE EAST.

Though it is the general impression
in most European capitals that the Turks
viii accept the Russian conditions, and peace

prevails particularly in London and St

Improved Ordnance.

With modern improvements in the de-
sign and manufacture of ordnance has
come the necessity Of providing long
ranges, both for the trial of the pieces
and also for subsequent practice. A few
weeks ago a new range was opened near
Meppen by Herr Krupp; and now it is
intended by the French military authori-
ties to provide similar adjunct to the
school of artillery established at Mans.
A piece OF ground upon which a range
over 5000 yards long can be made has
been already bought, and The designs for
the necessary butts, traverses, &c, have
been prepared, so that the work of con-
stYuctfng them can be begun directly the
