ture for reward of SIC, 900 to be paid
for an invention which will enable
farmers, upon their plantation and Mt
paving rates, to COZ vert their crops
from the seed into yarns.
The principal object had in view
when I offered this resolution was to
direct the attention of farmers and in
ventors to the practicability of per
fecting it. l was aware of the expert
ment of Col. Harrison with the 'Clem-
ent Attachment which demonstrates
the practicability of spinning from the
seed, but the machine is too costly for
farm use, and could not compete for
the reward unless it was modified SO
as to come within the requirements
remember, when l was a boy, seeing
a hand machine which did the same
thing, i. e., spin yarn from seed cotton,
the cotton being spread upon an end
less cloth band which carried it to the
saws, whence it was passed in proper
condition in six spindles and then
made into yarn, the whole operated
by the turning of a crank. This ma
chine was rs much too small as the
other was too large, but equally we'll
demonstrates the feasibility of the plan
of spinning from the seed. Now, if the
States will do what was done in New
York, when it wanted steamboat for
the Erie Canal, and in Indiana when
. practical road steamer was needed
offer All inducement to inventOrs-l
have no hesitation in saying that ere
long we will have the intermediate Of
the Two machines alluded to, and, as
the result, each farmer will, in addi-
ton to the questionable profits now
made by raising cotton, be able to
pocket the very decided premium
which aoorues by converting it into
yarn.
There are two other ideas which pre-.
sent themselves in this connection. ~
Spin your stained cotton Into yarns
and ten cents worth Of bleaching ma
terisl will make them--the yield
of bais---as white ~ snow. You can
now understand why special orders
are frequently given 70 buyers to &C.
cure this class of cotton, but always at
reduced price Of course. The other
idea was suggested by seeing this year
and last year an intimation by the
New York Cotton Exchange that ef.
forts would be made to deduct the
weight of the hasging, Ifthis is done
and it is well-known fact that farm
ers are the victims in all combinations
then would the price offered for THU
machine be indeed paltry in compari

CAPITAL PUNISHMENT

Neil Blair, negro, was convicted
last week, in Camden, of the murder
Of VIM. Adamson, negro, and SEN
fenced TO be hung on the 18th of Oc-
tober. The number of murders that
are daily being committed is truly
shocking. We can account for this
upon no other hypothesis. than that
the morals of the country are growing
worse, or our laws are becoming more
flexible and lax. Both of these, no
doubt, contribute to swell the torrent
Of murder, rs well as the food ofcrime
in general.
But, whatever the cause, we must
have remedy. The great fabric of
Society must be protected. The strict
enforcement of the law of capital pun
ishmcnt is the only remedy. Blood
for blood" is the teachings of the BIZ
BILE; it is the cry of the savage, and it
is the theory, if not the practice, of
many States in the Union, How sci.

effect OF almost paralyzing general busi-

There has been a large influx Of
visitors, official and unofficial, from

The Lumber Boom

Hinton Herald.
Ii is gratifying to note the rapid
growth and development Of the lumber
trade. in this immediate section. Only
q few wears ago, there were but two or
three SAW mills between ROnceverte and
the mouth oi Piney river. Now there
are two large and lOUriShiug mills at
Ronceverte, four in or near Anderson,
one at Lowell, two at Hinton, one at
New Richmond, one at Meadow Greek,
and one at the mouth Of Piney, making
i'm all twelve mills on or near the Ches-
apeake and Ohio railroad in a distance
oi sixty miles. All these mills
are busily engaged in cutting up
the fine poplar, oak, walnut and
ash timber that abounds in this re-
giou, and shipping it to Europe and the
Northern States. When We remember
that this is only the beginning of this
important branch of industry, it takes
no prophet to foTesee the immense pro-
portions it must assume in very few
years, and the vast wealth il will bring
into the country. Besides the sawed
lumber that is being shipped daily, there
are millions Of slaves and thousands OF
saw logs continually going out. When
New river is fully opened for navigation
Hinton is bound to become the center
for the lumber trade of this whole region.
The business now carried on is entirely
along the railroad, the New river country
never having been touched.
