Cotton aoed oil We. Lard.

For culinary uses, we believe that
cotton seed Of! will soon be in more
general favor than lard. 1t has
been tested in some of the largest
hotels and restaurants OF the coun-
try, ANA has been warmly endorS-
ed. Ozone thing there can be no
donbt--that cotton seed oil is much
cleaner than lard; we know that on
ly pure, sound seed will make good
oil, and we do not know from what
sort Of animals the lard of com
merce is drawn. Mr.. Billingsley,
OF our oil mills, presented us with
a bottle Of refined oil, which our
better half used in biscuit making,
and found it excellent. He also
used it in his own family, and 10
entire satisfaction. So entirely are
we satisfied with cotton seed oil for
cooking purposes, that we shall get
an everlasting divorce from the
lard barrel. We are satisfied that
many a diseased hog has been melt
ed into lard and sold to the trade,
and we hope that the substitution
OF cotton seed oil will emancipate
every household from danger Of
such imposition in tho future

shot de President could read law,
aud plead it; be could cheat, lie,

come and go, push his claims fur of
fee and go on long journeys, and
yet he am declared TO be crazy
No one eber knowed it till be be-
came an assassin. If he hadn't tried
to commit murder he would still be
looked upon as a deadbeat instead OF
lunatic. Now propose to take

preston made by the discussion, al
to the merits of the question at Issue
it certainly demonstrated the fac
that we have in the present Senate
quite a number of rising young men
who in point of forensic force ant
address, are not inferior to those
who as their predecessors, have ~oI
the public ear and commanded pub
lie confidence. The speech of Mr.
Vim, the young Sens or from thu
35th, was amongst the best oDei
made On the occasion. II was a.
once creditable to him and interest
ing to those who heard it. While i,

torical display, it was delivered in a
spirit of earnestness, and with pre-
cision of expression which evinced a
close study of the question. He is
evidently 'weIl worthy the honor
conferred upon him by the intelli
gent and patriotic voters of the pop
ulous district he represents. He be
longs to that large body of earnest,
modest but energetic young men,
who are destined to have much to do
with Georgia's political destiny for
some years to come. Such men de
serve generous support and encour-
agement.
