PLANTING FRUIT TREES.

To plant a few fruit trees near
ones house is SO little trouble, and
how much they add to the pleasure
and health of the family. Even in
Il pecuniary point of view an Or
chard is great advantage. A per-
son who wanted to purchase q farm
would give almost us much again
for one that had Il good orchard on
it as one that had not. Some peo-
pie will not take the trouble Of
planting fruit trees, because they
don't expect TO remain where they
are living for the rest of their lives,
and they are afraid others would
enjoy tie fruits OF their labor. Oh,
how selfish . We have known per-
sons to cut down fruit trees that
they did not plant, because they did

CONVICTION, La:
Saturday, January 3. 1850.

THE action of the masked mob
who hung and mutilated the pris-
oners in Amite City last Sunday
night, is generally and justly con-
demned by our citizens. 1t was an
insult to our civilization, an outrage
upon the laws of the land, and will
be lasting disgrace to all who
participated in it. Although the
victims were all murderers-men
whose hands were dyed with the
blood of their fellow-men-yet there
was no occasion for an appeal to
Judge Lynch. All men should have
a fair trial; justice demands it, the
law guarantees it, and a healthy
state of society depends upon it.
If the majesty of the law is to be
maintained, the perpetrators of such
outrages should not be allowed to
so UNPUBLISHED.

During our recent visit to the city we
called at the office of the New Orleans
Democrat. where We had the pleasure OF
meeting with Major Burke, the champion
journa list of Democracy in Louisiana.
Under the able management of Major
Burke, the Democratic has rapidly gained
a leading position among the journals of
the South, and is indeed "a power in the
land" Aside from its able champion
ship of Louisiana, and all that pertains
to the good and welfare of our State and
people, the Democrat each day contains a
perfect avalanche of news from all por-
tions Of the world. We wish the Demo
crat every success and long and pros
porous career.

not expect to be there to eat the
fruit. Was not that wicked? Yes,
1 am sure it was very wicked, and
God will punish all such wicked
people even in this world, for they
will be poor all their lives. Horace
Greeley said that he would plant
to-day if he knew he would die to-

That is the proper spirit. If
everybody would think and act in
this way, the whole world would
have enough of fruit to eat.-Coun-

SIMPLE BUT IMPORTANT IN
EENTSN.
WHERE SEED COTTON IS PUT INTO THE
HOPPER AND CONES OUT YARN.

A trial Of the workings of the
Clement attachment, which took
place recently at Westminster, An
derson county, S. c., according to
Southern exchanges was very con-
vincing to those who witnessed it,
OF the merits of this simple buss i'm
portant invention. The seed as it
came from the gin showed not a
particle of lint adhering to it. By
this process probably s per cent.
more cotton is obtained from a
given quantity of seed than would
result from the ordinary method of
ginning. Yarns made by the prin-
ciple OF the Clement attachment
are claimed to be of superior quail
ity. 4 medal OF honor was given
ut the Centennial to the "new pro-
cess" yarns, and awards were also
made for the same by the State
fairs of South Carolina and Georgia.
An experienced farmer who wit
messed the trials referred to ex-
pressed the opinion that this little
machine viii in time result in the
manufacture of yarns on plantations
Just as now cotton is ginned there.
The result of this viii be to nearly
double the value of the crop. Cot
ton when gianed brings s or 8
cents, and when ginned and spun
will obtain Is or IL cents.
7. J. Henderson, State Commits
sioner of Agriculture for Georgia,
says: Il have figured on the thing
from every possible standpoint, and
| cannot see why q single Clement
attachment should not pay from
$500 to $500 a year. I think
these attachments put on planta-
tions and worked by a neighbor-
hood of turner's, with one of them
to supenhtend it, would do great
good and prove q perfectly safe and
profitable investment. I shall adj
wise the putting up of these
machines wherever these conditions
can be had" The simplicity of
construction of the Clement mill,
and the directncss with which its
work is done, will commend it to
those farmers who hesitate to have
to do with complicated machinery.
\ correspondent writing from
Georgia says of several of these at
tachments in operation in that
State, that they are a paying invest
ment of SO per cent. to the farmers
over the present system of baling
the cotton from the gin. Among
the advantages summed up are !:
1t will save the expense of bagging
and ties. 1t makes q smoother aud
better yarn than the compressed
cotton. It viii save to the country
the large margin between the raw
material and the yarn. 1t will at
tract capital and draw machines to
the material. The farmers, accord
ing to all reports, appear much in
terested in this matter, and it is be-
lieved many more of the attach
ments will be put into operation
throughout the latter section anoth-
er season. Machinery has always
been the great want of the South,

THE MINERAL BOOM IN VIRGINIA.
Gen. Imboden, who represents a large
Northern company of capitalists, passed
through Bristol a few days since on his
way to Scott county, Va. We learn that
he has conditionally purchased A.
600 acres of mineral lands belonging to
the Kane and Olinger estates. at the low
price of thirty-five cents per acre. Our
informant thinks that the sale was con-
firmed by the Circuit Court of Scott
county yesterday. The land embraces
Big Stone Gap. If the sale is confirmed
by the court the company will 60 to
work at once and erect furnaces for max
ing iron. The General says he will
have one thousand hands at work on
the Bristol Narrow Gauge by the 1st of
June. The General is also purchasing
other lands. Lee, Scott and Wise are
full of the best fossiliferous iron ores in
the world, and its development will be
a big boom for Bristol. bristol Courier.

Why Grant Is Pressed for Nomination
The Designs of COnkling and Cameron.

rFrom the Louisville Courier-Journal.]
General Grant will be the Republican
nominee. His nomination is revolution.
Speaking not thoughtlessly, but iamil-
iarly, it means fight or foot-race 1or
Somebody.

gers, who are brave, able, and alert

BILE than any body of conspirators known
among men since those who made way
with Caesar, and thus, by curious in
version of history, seeking, both by par
adox and conspiracy, to bring him to
life again-the ground plan of the Grant
managers does not rest upon either the
result of the popular vote or the vote
cast in the Electoral College. Mr..
Conkling knows as well as Mr.. Cur
tbs. Mr.. Cameron knows as well as Mr.:
Halstead, that, with all his personal
popularity and prestige, General Grant
| ia bound to be the weakest candidate,
numerically speaking. the Republicans
can put in the field. But what he lacks
in numbers they propose to make up by
the force of the issue they are to precip'

MY RULES FOR LIvING.-I am no
doctor or pill vender, yet 1 have had a
good long life and happy one May I
not, therefore, just give my simple rules
for health in the hope that some travel.
er on the up or down hill of life may
look at them and be benefited by them.
I have practiced them for many years
and they have'done me good; they may
do good to others. They are inexpen-
sive and may be easily abandoned, if
they cause any harm.
1. Keep in the sunlight as much as
possible. A plant will not thrive with
out the sunbeam; much less man.
H. Breathe as much fresh air as your
business will permit. This makes fresh
blood; but it will never be found in the
four walls of your building. Beneath
the open sky, just there, and only there,
it comes to you.
III. Be strictly temperate. You can
not break organic law, or any other law,
with impunity.
w. Keep the feet always warm and
the head cool. Disease and death begin
at the feet more commonly than we
think.
V. Eat white bread when you cannot
get brown bread.
vi. If out of order see which of the
above rules you have not observed, then
rub yourself all over with towel satu
rated with salt water, and well dried
and begin upon the rules again.
VII. Look ever on the bright, which
is the heaven side of life. This is far
better than medicine.
These seven simple rules good for the
valid or invalid, if rightly observed,
would save, I apprehend, deal of pain,
prolong life. and so far as health goes,
make it worth the having.-Boston
Traveller.
