discovered that the white ants were
working in his residence. One of the stills

"How many processes does this in
teresting article pass through from the
time it leaves the parental tree until.
with sharp report, it emerges from a

"As you doubtless know" he
answered, 'the cork oak grows in
Spain and Portugal, which countries
supply the world with cork. The tree
is successfully cultivated for its bark,
and grows from twenty to forty feet in
height. The outer bark-the external
layers of spongy cellular tissue-which
is stripped off for market year or two
before 1t would crack from distension
and be thrown off naturally in large
flakes, is what is used, and this, having
mainly lost its true vitality, Is burden

from three to five years have q fungus
appearance, on account u the rough
and cracked condition OF the dark sur
faces of trunk and branch. The bark
of young trees is useless or Of inferior
quality, but after the third peeling it is
suitable. 1t is removed at intervals OF
six or eight years, and the trees con-
tinue to yield cork for upward OF one
hundred and fifty years.
1.-The bark is taken off by making in
cisions upward and transversely and
by using a two-handled circular knife.
Then the slabs are soaked, heated on
the convex side to remove the natural
curvature, pressed fiat, and specifically
charred to remove decayed parts and
conceal blemishes. Next they are
packed for market The slabs come in
thicknesses of from | to p inches, and
are sometimes 4 by 2 feet in size.
The older the tree the better and
finer the quality of the cork, its cost
ranging from five to twenty-five cents
per pound. The slabs are softened by

MAY 2nd, 1886.
ED. SOUTH KENTUCKIAN:
We hear the cry from all parts Of
the county about bad roads and it is
a burning shame that as grand a
county as Christian should let her
public roads 60 down as they have
for the last few years. We have better
machinery, better stock, grow more
and better tobacco and last but not
least we have market that is Sec
ond to none in the State. Now we
ask shall we let this 60 on or shall
we change the present system of
working them? Experience has
taught us that they will never be
worked any better under the present
law. The office holders have most
all been silent on this subject and II
one spoke out on it he was cried
down; but the voice of great peo-
pie can now be heard from every
valley, every hilltop and prairie
asking for a change. There are
enough wagons broken and stock
killed by driving over the roads in
their present condition each year 10
pay ten times the costs Of keeping
them up. We hope the next court of
claims will take this matter in hand
and consider it well, we believe the
famers would prefer paying tax to
keep up the roads rather than be sub
ject to be called from their work at
any time the overseer saw proper TO
do so. We, like other Kentuckians,
are opposed to taxation but i'll this
we believe it to be the only relief Of
fered and as we heard man say the
other day who was an applicant ask
ing to be put on the pension roll All
the government is going to pay me
anything 1 want it now for in few
years I'll be dead and cannot enjoy
it,, and we say if we are to have bet
ter roads let us go to work to get
them, now.

Late President Of the

speech made by Hon. Jefferson Davis
at the laying of the foundation stone

Montgomery last Tuesday:
MR.. DAVIS SPEECH.
Mr.. Davis spoke, his voice firm and
full and his plentiful gestures em-
phasizing his earnest tones. lie was
frequently interrupted by prolonged
applause.
"My friends, it would be vain if l
should attempt TO express to you the
deep qualification which l feel at this
demonstration. But know it is not
personal, and, therefore, feel more
grateful, because it is sentiment far
dearer to me than myself. You have
passed through the terrible ordeal of
war, which Alabama did not seek.
When she felt her wrongs too griey-
GUS for future liberation she sought
the peacable solution. That being
denied her, thunders of war came
ringing over the land. Then her
people rose in her majesty; gray
haired sires and beardless boys eager
| ly rushed TO the front. 1t was that
war which christianity alone APP
proved-a holy war for defence.
Well do l remember seeing your gen.
lie boys-so small, TO use farmers
phrase, they might have been called
seed corn-moving on with eager step
and fearless brow 10 the carnival of
death and have also looked upon
them when their knapsacks and mus
kets seemed heavier than the boys,
and my eyes, partaking of mothers
weakness, filled with tears. Those
days have passed. Many of them
have found nameless graves; but
they are not dead. They live in
memory, and their spirits stand out,
the grand reserve of that column
which is marching on with unfalter-
ing steps toward the goal of constitu-
tional liberty. [Applause.]
at were in vain if 1 should at
tempt, as 1 have already said, to ex.
press my gratitude TO you. 1 am
standing now very nearly on the spot
where / stood when 1 took the oath Of
office in 1861. Your demonstration
now exceeds that which welcomed
me then. This shows that the spirit
Of Southern liberty is not dead
Long and continued applause. Then
you were full of joyous hopes. You
had every prospect of achieving al
you desired and now you are wrapped
in the mantle of regret-and yet tina
regret only manifests more profound
| ly and does not obliterate the expires
sion of your sentiments. felt las
night, as l approached the Exchange
Hotel, from the gallery, Of which
your peerless orator, VIM. L. Yancey
introduced me 10 the citizens o
Montgomery, and commended me il

could yield, and much far exceeded

was coming homecoming to a Liant
where liberty dies not, and seriou
sentiments live forever. Applause
have been promised my friends
that l should not be called upon t

only extend 10 you my heartfelt
thanks. God bless you one and al
