The Now lutte Machine.

Having alluded to jute culture as the
introduction of a new industry into the
South, and to the recent invention OF
machinery adapted to the preparation OF
lutte for market. for the further Informal
ton of our planters on these interesting
subjects we copy the following from the
Vicksburg Miss. Southern Planter:
Professor Waterhouse, of Washington
University, st. Louis, and Colonel Dahlel
bennett. a NEST we'll informed and prac-
teal gentleman. and withal one OF the
most accomplished writers on agrlcultu-
raj subjects that we know of in the South,
have pronounced the new jute machine,
invented by Mr.. Il. Albee Smith. of st.
Louis. a success. If these gentlemen be
correct in their judgment, the stumbling
block that has heretofore stood IN the way
of profitable jute culture in the cotton
States may be considered as virtually re-
moved"
THE NeW<Orleans PicdyUne,in timely
editorial based upon Col. Dement'S re-
port of experiments made with this ma
chine upon lutte growing in the field at
the Menelas plantation, near BrOOkhaVen,
Miss. says: so etfectually did the ma
chine do its work that Mr.. Smith, the
patentee, who was present to test It's ope-
ratiOns. declared that il would prepare
duction and separation of , to % cents
per pound while the imported article is
selling in the markets of this country at
to ~ cents a pound, an unusually low
price by the way, but one, nevertheless,
which will pay a handsome proht to
the American producers.
..There will be a twO-fold profit to the
planting class from jute culture; hrst, to
all who are consumers Of bagging; sec
ond. to the growers of the jute ITSELF
Taking the above figures, and supposlng
enough to be grown TO supply only the
home demand. the country Will be gamer
bv nearly two millions of dollars, annual
". which will be divided between pro
ducers and consumers, and many oil the
former will reap a double share of profit,
But we ought not for moment To think
of stopping our jute crops at the point OF
home supply. We should in the near fu-
ture, and doubtless we will, in time, sup
DIV the demand of all the world this side
of India,
From an article in the Jackson Comet,
that we are prevented from printing in
full by lack of space alone, we quote as
follows:
CUTE can be more easily cultivated
than cotton, while the profits per acre are
about twice as much. The seed can be
planted in April. and during the latter
portion of June the plant begins to bios
som. and is ready for the machine. Mr.,
Menelas has planted this year about
twelve acres, which will yield about 1900
pounds per acre, and is worth four cents
| i'm market now, making eighty dollars per
acre. or the value of two bales of cotton;
On better land it can be made to pro
duce twice as much, 1t is more easily
cultivated, more easily prepared for mar
ket and is worth more than cotton.
HpmD lands i'm Kentucky are cOnsid-
cred very valuable which produce thou
sand pounds of clear fibre per acre, which,
according to Professor Proctor, who has
written a valuable work on this subject,
nets about $40 per acre. Jute will net
/ twice this amount.

CAUSE FOR APPREHENSION.

Why Mysterious Physical Troubles
Arouse Special Dread-A Professional
Experiences.
Few things give more pain than dread
or apprehension. Most people are able to
face apparent danger heroically, but the
sudden and unexpected coming of some
indefinite calamity very naturally strikes
terror to even the bravest. For this reason
lightning and tornadOes are considered
terrible; their coming and going are so
sudden, unannounced and unknown. For
this same reason an unknown disease,
some poison in the blood, some malady
that is gradually undermining the life,
is specially dreaded by all thinking
people. And, indeed, there are good
reasons for such dread. for modern
science has discovered that some virulent
disorders show the least signs in their be-
ginnings, while they have the worst pos
sible symptoms. We know of many per-
sons who have dull and uncertain pains
in various portions of the body; who are
unnaturally tired one day and apparently
we'll the next; who have an enormous APP
petite at times and lOathing of food soon
thereafter. Such persons are really in a
dangerous condition, even though they
may not realize it. The following state
ment of a most prominent physician, who
has had unusual opportunities for inYes-
tigation, is of so striking and important a
nature that it will be read with interest by
all.

The Post would not presume to dictate.
but ventures to respectfully suggest the
name of Hon. Jay 4. Hubbell, of Michi-
gan. as eminently worthy of careful con-
sideratiOn in the selection of head for
the Civil Service Commission or board of
examiners. 1t is true that Mr.. Hubbell is
a recent convert. but il cannot be denied
that he makes up in zeal for the lateness
of his arrival in the vineyard. And in
this connection il may be we'll to remem-
Der that the most eminent of all the ApOs-
ties was breathing out threatenings and
slaughter against the Disciples, Just
as Hubbell used to do against the
reforming brethren, until conviction
struck home. as it has in Hub
BELLS case. st. Paul saw "a great light
while he.was prosecuting the Christians.
Hubbell saw "a great light on very
dark night i'm November, 1882, while he
was reviling the refOrmers and calling
them all sorts of uncsnny names. There
are many other points of resemblance in
the cases of these two subjects of inStan-
taneOus conversion, but we have not
space to trace them at this time. We
feel confident. however, that the sugges-
tion of Mr.. Hubbells name in connection
with the appointment of chief examiner
will meet with very general favor. His
Congressional career is nearly ended, and
such ability as his should not be spared
from. the public service,

The new city registration law, which
requires that parties who offer to register
shall have paid all taxes which have ac-
crued against them since 1877, has been
denounced a. infamous" Has il ever Oc-
CURED to those who talk so glibly about
this matter that the constitution of the
State of Georgia has similar provision
that no one shall vote at any election who
has not paid all taxes since 1877:
There was a registration law operative
in this city which was used for years to
keep one party in power. 1t is stated, on
reliable authority. that under this - goody
gOOdy" law five hundred names were reg
istered which never had living representa-
tives, and that the registry tickets of those
bogus citizens were voted by repeaters,
and that nominations and elections were
thus rendered simply farces. Probably
that kind Of laW was Infamous"
Let every citizen register. The present
law was framed for the protection of the
ballot-box. and to give the people the OPP
pOrtunity to regulate their own affairs,
and not have a few men manage them for
them. The law takes not a single privi-
lege from an honest citizen that he does
not enjoy under the organic law of the
commonwealth
