Cotton Factories in the Fields.

Atlanta Constitution
The communication which we recently
published from Mr.lD. u. Sloan, of Norcross,
in regard to the cotton factory at Westmin-
ster, :. c., has attracted considerable atten-
ton not only at the South, but all through
the North, and many persons have visited
the mill, whose testimony induces US to be-
lieve that the people of the South now have
the opportunity to take 4 long step forward
in the direction of that prosperity, which
must spring from diversified industry.
Among those who have recently visited the
South Carolina factory is Capt. G. f. Akers,
of LaCtrange, and in an article printed in
the Reporter of that place he confirms every
statement of the correspondent of the Con-
stituton. The machinery of the mill is
simple and cheap, aud by setting it up in
the neighbOrhoods throughout the cotton
belt the value of the staple can be increased
nearly 100 per cent. particularly when we
take into consideration the amount of money
saved on bagging, ties, packing, weighing,
storing and shipping. The factory now in
operation at Westminster, of which we
shall speak more at length in another arti-
Gle spins the cotton direct from the seed by
means of a machine known as the Clement
attachment, and is run by seven women
and a boy. It's capacity is between four
and five hundred pounds of seed cotton per
New York at an average of l6f cents. The
cotton is taken from the gin and brush on
y card and comes out in roll, and New
York dealers say threads made by this pro-
cess class Il great deal higher than threads
made from compressed cotton. Not par
ticle of lint is left on the seed, as in the
ordinary gins We are inclined to believe
that this method of preparing the staple for
market solves the problem for the South.
1t enables the planters of each neighbor-
hood to add the industry of manufacturing
to the business of cotton raising, and at a
profit that will more than justify the small
Investment to be made, and within course
of the next year or two, if we do not mistake
the purpose and enterprise of our people,
there will be at least one hundred of these
factories in operation in Georgia. Wher-
ever there is a grist mill, planning mill or
saw mill, yarn factory can be added with
out an increase of power, and at a very lit
tie increase of cost.

! CoRNwALL. n. v, Oct. 6.-At re-
cent lottery drawing David Wright OF
Mountainville held half of the ticket
which drew the capital prize of $40, 600.
| OF the SIS. 900 received he invested S12,
600, and gave $3.50 of the rest to the
Methodist church of which he was for
merly a member and to which large
number of his relatives belong. Wright
was a poor man and an invalid, and the
money was very acceptable. On Sun
dav morning last the Methodist brethren
held a PRAYER meeting. One of the sub
iects which engaged their attention was
that of the money needed to repair the
meeting house. While bemoaning their
sad pecuniary condition Mr. Wright gave
the $3.50 to make the needed repairs.
The all important theme of talk now Is,
Can they accept this money? 2
Il don't think we can" said one of
the members, ''for its against our teach
ings and against all moral laws. Our
church creed is Numerically opposed to
lotteries in every shape, and although
Mr.. Wright might be sincere in his good
intentions, as he undoubtedly Is, we can
not accept any such gift.
Another brother said $50 far as l
am concerned, | don't believe we will
overstep the bounds of propriety or pru-
dence by accepting the gift. If We are
to question every giver of good, be 1t to
the poor and INDECENT or to the Church,
Pm afraid neither the poor nor the church
will ever reap much Of a harvest from
the generous who have to give. Sup
pose, for instance, that Mr.. Wright had
$3.50 laid away, and when he got the s15,-
900 from his lottery ticket, he gave us the
$3.50 he had saved up. OF course he
only got the $3.50 because he was lucky
with his lottery ticket. Would you
saw, under these circumstances, that his
gift was lottery money? In reality it
would not be, but were it not for the
lottery money we wouldn'tget the dona-
ton, | cannot see the harm in accept
ing Mr.. Wright's gift.
The question is exciting church cir
cles, and it is likely to for some time
yet. A great many religious persons
outside of the pale of the Church are
interested in the question, and are argu-
ing it freely from different standpoints.

SteWed Oysters.

Stewing oysters is the cheapest, common
est and quickest way of cooking them. But
very few people know how to do it. Many
cooks actually boil the oysters, which makes
them tough and leathery. The moment
the juice begins to bubble, your stew (not
broil) is done. Some cooks fairly drown
their oysters in water-a very little water
may be added to the juice, but most good
cooks would consider any water at all too
much. The Philadelphia philanthropist,
who has been doing so much good, by telling
cooks how to "do'' their oysters good,
gives the following recipe for a first-class
stew
Select dozen of the freshest, largest and
most highly favored oysters, such as you
would for fry. Have a small pan about
one inch deep with handle to it. Open
into this pan your dozen oysters, also the
juice Ofthe same and the juice of a dozen
Others. In this dish you are 20 put no water
and no milk, only oyster juice, pure and
simple. Add one ounce of Chester county
gilt-edged butter, little of the best (for
there are grades and adulteration even here)
of black pepper and pinch of salt. Sprinkle
on the top a small quantity of cracker dust
Place on a quick fire. When the oysters
begin to swell they are done. To cook to
this stage will require about FIVE minutes
Do not turn out these oysters in any other
dish, but eat directly from the pan and while
they are steaming hot"

The Spelling Reform.

As much is being done with reference
to reform in the cumbrous method OF
spelling many of our cOmmonest words,
we may be pardoned for adding the fol
lowing mite. The Chicago Tribune has
given its compositors and proof-readers
the following rules for their guidance,
and, so far, they have created no confu
sion in the Tribune office:
Hereafter spell certain words appear
ing in The Tribune as follows:
Omit ne in demagog, catalog, pedagog
synagog, dialog, decalog, and other words
ending in logue and gogue.
Omit the superfuous me in program
me, gramme
Omit the second M in dilemma (di
lema).
Omit the superfuous tie in cigarette,
etiquette, coquette, and all similar words,
except Gazette when it is issued as the
name of newspaper.
Spell definite in all its forms without
the final c; thus, definit-ly-ness.
Spell infinite without a final e also,
infnit-ly-ness
Omit final in hypocrite, favorite !;
also opposit-ly-ness and apposit-ly
ness.
In words ending in & Iessncss," drop
one from less" viz: Carelessness,
etc.
Omit the fourth in assassin (assasin)
and other forms of the word.
Spell somerset, not somersault.
Spell canon with Spanish n, or spell
it canyon.
Change phi to f in phantom, phantasm,
and all forms of the word also, in
phonic phonetic photography,
orthogaphy, alphabet, diagraph, diph-
thong.

The subject of vivisection has not
come very prominently before the
American public, our scientific investi-
gators having been less cruel or more
cautious or less enterprising than those
of Europe; but in England and Ger
many heated controversies have been
raging about it, and much strong feeling
has been called forth. A convention
of the German associations for the
prevention of cruelty to animals that
met several weeks ago in Gotha took up
this subject, and after long discussion
adopted a series of resolutions and
recommendations that not even the
stoutest advocate of vivisection can take
just exception to. After declaring itself
Incompetent to determine whether the
dissection Of living animals is really
essential to the ends of science, the
convention proceeds to say that, how
ever that may be, it deeply deplores the
wanton cruelties of which report accuses
the vivisectionists, and it calls upon the
Federal Council and the Reichstag to
order an examination of the question,
and if they arrive at the conclusion that
vivisection is really indispensable to
scientific investigation, to adopt legisla-
ton calculated to keep it within proper
restrictions and control, and to prevent
the intiiction of unnecessary torment
In particular, it recommends that vivi-
section shall never be permitted where
the dissection of dead material viii an
swer that wherever that does not de-
feat the purposes of the experimental
ton, anaesthetics should be employed,
and that paralyzing agencies should not
be allowed as substitute for ansesthe-
tics except when their effect is a part of
the investigation; that as soon as the
scientific object of the experiment has
been obtained, the animal should forth
with be killed, and not kept for further
use of the same kind unless in cases
where the pain ceases with the conclu-
sion of the experimentation that vivi-
section shall not be permitted as an aid
to instruction or in illustration of lee
lures where the points in question have
previously been investigated and salts
factorily settled, nor for the purpose of
gratifying mere curiosity.

Symptoms Of a DiseasedLiver

Symptoms Of a Diseased Liver.
DAN in the right side, under the
L edge of the ribs, increases on pres
sure; sometimes the pain is in the left
side; the patient is rarely able to lie
on the left side; sometimes the pain is
felt under the shoulder blade, and it
frequently extends 10 the top of the
shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken
for rheumatism in the arm. The
stomach IS affected with loss of appe-
tite and sickness; the bowels in gen
eral are Costive, sometimes alternative
with lax; the head is troubled with
pain, accompanied with a dull, heavy
sensation in the back part ; There is
generally considerable loss of mem
DRY, accompanied with painful SEN
sation of having left undone some
thing which ought to have been done.
A slight, dry cough is sometimes an
attendant. The patient complains of
WEAKNESS and debility; he is easily
startled, his feet are cold or burning,
and he complains Of prickly sensa-
ton of the skin; his spirits are low;
and although he IS satisfied that exer-
else would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts
every remedy. Several Of the above
symptoms attend the disease, but cases
have occurred where few Of them ex-
listed, yet examination of the body,
after death, has shown the LIVER to
have been extensively deranged.
AGUE AND FEVER.
DR.. c. MCLANE's LIVER PILLS, IN
CASES OF AGUE AND FEVER, when
taken with Quinine, are productive of
the most happy results. No better
Cathartic can be used, preparatory to,
or after taking Quinine. We would
advise all who are afflicted with this
disease to give them a FAIR TRIAL.
For all bilious arrangements, and as
simple purgative, they are unequaled.
BEWARE OF LIMITATIONS.
The genuine are never sugar coated.
Every box has red wax seal on the lid,

PILLS.
The genuine MCLANE's LIVER PILLS bear
the signatures of c. MCLANE and FLEMING
