A COTTON PICKER.

Surely this is an age of rapid ad
vancement and wonder. Each year
some American genius steps forward,
and astonishes the world with come
marvellous invention. The last is
cotton>picker. A Charleston man
claims to have machine by which
the harvester can pick out cotton at
the low rate of one dollar per bale.
1t is so arranged that the driver,
by leaning back in his seat, can stop
the picking in order to drive away
TO the unloading place.
The machine is described as hav
ing the size and weight of a two>
horse wagon, and is upon three
wheels, the centre one running be-
tween two rows and the other two
outside of them. The two driving
wheels, from which is worked the
machinery, is high enough to carry
everything above the cotton. The
front wheel is abou. half the height,
and works on pivot joint, to which
are attached the horses, which walk
between the rows. The picking
machine consists Of two hundred
finger shaped cards on India rubber,
working up and down through the
stalks as the machine advances.
These cards will not take hold Of
anything but the lint of the open
cotton, and takes that whether it is
on the ground or on the top of the
stalk. Leaves, twigs and hulls will
not stick to them, but the cotton
touched 10 ever 80 small a degree
instantly adheres, and will not let
90 until brushed off the top by the
brusher, whence it is taken on an
apron of bands and deposited in a
receptacle in the rear in a light
straight form, entirely free from
dirt. The machine is reduced to
its lowest simplicity, has adjustable
parts, is very durable and easily
managed.

FROM CUTHBERT, GA, TO JONES'
BORO. TENN.


DEAR JOURNAL About the 10th
day of February the sloes or old
field plum bushes we're beginning to
bloom in Randolph county, Ca, and
here, near Jonesboro, Washington
county, Tenn, they arc not blossom
ing yet, though this is the 10th day
of March. Latitude alone does not
make this much difference in climate
between the two places named. 1t
is elevation above the level of the
sea. Cuthbert is said to be four
hundred feet above sea level while
Jonesboro is over thousand. Were
Washington county. Tenn, only four
hundred feet high, and had a porous
sandy soil, the difference in vegets>
ton, putting out would not be more
than three weeks, it SO much as that
The soil here in East Tennessee, is
stiff, compact and cIayey; good for
the grasses and grains, but, in many
of its parts, not as good for the root
crops as most of the granite regions
of Georgia. Information worth hav>
ing, can, now and then, be picked up
as we visit the several sections Of our
grand aud beautiful country. One
| have stumbled upon here at the
home of Mr.. Philip Armentrout, in
Washington County. Thirty-nine
years ago, his father, Frederick Ar
mentrout, moved out to this country
from the Valley of Va, and among
other things, brought two English
WaInuts with him. These he plant
ed in his garden. Only one came
up.-It grew and thrived, but it v
err matured single full grown wal
nut, though it lived until last winter,
when the gerry cold weather felled it
to the ground. 1t is again putting
out sprouts from the roots, but the
long life of the parent tree proves that
this is not the proper section in
which to cultivate this nut. Has any
ono given any part of Georgia SO fair
test as this with the English wal
nut ? If SO, will he please be kind
enough to give US his experience i"
the MARIETTA JOURNAL. 1t will be
an item 10 the Horticultural interest
of our State worth learning.
While in Cuthbert, Georgia, l
learned that three gentlemen had,
combinedly, made five thousand gall
Ions Of scuppernong wine, and sold
it ID New York city for two dollars
per gallon, proving that South w est
Georgia can, and is making wines
growing a source of profit. The
winter of 1876 IT killed many of the
peach trees in upper East Tennessee,
and while Georgia, last year was
blessed with an abundant crop of fruit,
portions of Tennessee had scarcely
any at all.
