Stone & Psrks's ELL.

Writing last week shout the ancient
Indian mounds on Stevens Greek, remind
Ell US Of this lendid Grist and FIGURING
Mill in the Dark Corner s%ection-one OF
the finest ard most largely patroniztd
mills in our Coun.y-at the famous old
Tompkins mill place, near the mouth Of
Bird Greek. This establishment, besides
its unrivaled and never-iaili lg WATERFOWL
er, has three superb sets OF stones, one
set ior wheat and 2 sets for corn. Mr.
Jesse Stone, the immediate conductor and
supervisor Of the mill is a man thorough
ly and scientifically versed in his busl-
ness and besides this, he is an enllghten-
ed and public spirited citizen, deeply in
terested in the progress and prosperity Of
the county at large. Edgefeld should be
proud that size has within her borders
such ar, establishment as Stone and Parks's
Mill Of the Dark Corner-a mill that can
turn out-and does turn out haJituaHy-
as fine -four as can be made South OF New
York or Baltimore.

A Wonderful Gin-Saw Sharpener.
Col. Posey OF Alabama, of whom we
have spoken elsewhere, is an agent for
the sale ola neutrality-suspicious. and
wonderfully-succssfu l machine forsharp-
eniug gin-saws. Not so much, however,
for the sale of the machine itself, as for
the County right to sell it. we have
seer the practical working of this new
Filer-in company with several gentle
men of great good judgment in such
matters-and can assure our reader that
by means of it a 80 saw gin can be superb
ly sharpened in two hours. 1t is the
invention of S. V. Pattillo, Of Alabama,
a maa of great mechanical genius who
has spent his whole life in a gin factory,
and it boasts an improvement never here
tofore attained in giving a round and
needle point to the teeth. This is done by
means of n spiral guide controlling the
fIc-holder. The gin is setto thomachine
on pivots attached, the machinery works
in a frame moved by a central screw
and when gagged is driven by wheel
and crank which propels the file and by
an eccentric feeder tunrs the gin-saw tooth
by tooth on each revolve. The whole
machine is so simple az tobs easily ua-
derstood, and q ten-ycar old hoy can
work it Four gins per day is said to he
