MANUFACTURING PEARLS.
Uultiyating Oysters in Chinese Waters fox
 the Purpose.

the Purpose.
 The cultivation of the pearl oyster Aas for years been carried on with great success In the Bay of Ago, in Ja-i pan, under direction and restriction of governmental supervision. The process of nature Is, however, too slow for mod srn requirements. A Frenchman has been boring holes iu the shells of pearl oysters and introducing therein small glass beads and stopping up the holes with cork. In six months be hos pure surface pearls with glass foundation. The nacre of tho pearl mo1lusk varies according to its location, and almost any color of pearl, as white, black pink or gray, can readily be produced by lodging the nucleus on the appro- priate part of the mollusk's body.
 The Chinese are wonderfully expert in the manufacture of pearls. They in- troduce small balls of earth Inside the pearl mussel by very delicately opening the shell and placing the nuclei under the mouth of the animal, and allowing the shell to close. This initial process occurs in May or June, the musse1s are then deposited in canals or pools, and in November the Inollusks are opened, the pearls removed, holes bored therein, the necle1 extracted, the hollow pearl filled with melted resin and the orihce skillful1y filled with mother-of-pearl. These Chinese pearls are flat on the bottom, and are nearly hemisphertcal in shape.
 Pearls can be made of almost any shade or color by chemical means The black pearl, for instance, Is inde1ibly. colored in bath of nitrate of silver.
 Pearls being partly of animal sub-. stance are subject to deterioration and decay, and none of the famous pearls of to-day can be traced back many genera ktona

 Rishon Walden.

The First Methodist Church was well filled last evening to hear the discourse by that venerable Bishop, J NJ. Walden, of the Methodist Epis- eopal Church. North, who is on a brief visit to this city in the interest of the colored churches. Bishop Walden delivered u very able ser mon, full ofseientifie and philosophic truths, portraying in forcible man. ner the Love of God for mankind. In his sermon he refuted the prevalent idea that miraculous change would take place immediately after death, and admonished his audience against delaying GodIiness till death, saying that as q person leaves this world just so he enters the next. It has seldom been the pleasure of a Pine Bluff congregation to listen to such an able exponent of truth and right cousness, and Bishop Walden's dis course was appreeiatively received by everyone.

The Atlantn ExnosItion.

One of the most attractiyefeatures of the Cotton States and Interna- tional Exposition at Atlanta next fall, will be the production of the Worlds Columbian Exposition in miniature by Mir. G. w. Ferris, the builder of the Ferris wheel. The great Worlds Fair will be repro duecd in it's entirety. complete in every detail, on scale of 1-140th. This makes the Manufactures and Liberal Arts building about ten feet long, and the whole Exposition seventy-five feet long. The material is white holly, and the workmanship exquisite. The electrical effects will | be reproduced, ,and the smallest lights ever seen will be used in decorating the various buildings. Search lights will be shown on the battle ship and the various buildings, the eintramural railway will De seen with ears in motion, the whale-hack steamer will be seen arriving and departing, and Lake Michigan will appear in the distance. By electrical and mechan- ioal effects, sunrise, daylight, moon rise, and the white city by moonlight will appear in succession.

CURING TOBACCO.

We saw on Thursday evening the
first tobacco barn built around Winns-
boro. Mr.. W. R. Elliott was in charge
and We called on him to show as the
modus operandi.
The barn is about twenty feet long
fifteen feet wide, is made of logs
md daubed with mud. The hight Is
sufficient to allow for four OF five
tiers of tobacco shocks or bundles.
They are hung one above the other.
The furnace is msde of brick and the
heat is conveyed around through the
building in fues or large pipes. Two
thermometers are hund inside and the
temperature kept at 16O degrees for
about four days. The curing is the
critical point and needs to be watched
day and night. The lot in the barn
was about cured when we cAlled and
had turned to a pale yellow. We shall
expect to see more barns in our county
next year, as i! is said that tobacco
beats Cotton as money crop.

leaving it to the big wigs and "fnan-
ciers" to keep the record straight The
| tOoters Of tin-horns are directed to blow
without ceasing upon the evils and hor-
rOrs Of 1.-THE free and unlimited coinage
of the worlds silver" Look when you
will, and from whatever standpoint,
there Is a perpetual cloud OF dust In
the direction, Or supposed habi:atiol o.
this ghost of defunct national honor.
1t is assumed with the most unbiush:ng
and contemplate impudence, that
every voter who opposes the single
gold standard, is. wild-eyed fanatic,
seeking to flood the country with nm
told millions of debasei cuin. backed
only by the fiat of fools. Nobody knows
better than the intelligent gold advO-
Gates that this is as far from the truth
as is their perfidious motive from the
desire to present fair statement of
the case. Nobody knows better than
they that very large majority OF the
people are honestly in favor OF remone-
tiZing silver on safe and reliable
basis Nobody knows better than they
that this can be done and that the parity
between the two metals can be main
tanned just as it was whel the nations
resources and revenues were but a
meagre percentage Of what they DOW
are. 1t is by raising this storm about
free coinage Of the worlds silver, that
they persistently hide their real pur-
pose. They do it, knowing that 1t
brands the whole crusade as q lie and
as fraud, but what care they for the
principle? The man, or set OF men,
who will by legislation or intrigue, seek
to double the value of their holdings
at the expense Of the public, will not
be over scrupulouS about lying or
double dealing.
The people should understand, once
for all, that such warfare is inspired by
the same spirit which prompts the gang
to hold up train, or fly a pirates Dag
at sea. 1t is simply human greed for
money. Acquiring it by this &C: OF
robbery in demonetizing silver, is no
less robbery by being railroaded
through congress and becoming law.
The truth is that the people are ready
to repudiate the infamy, hence the
storm of affected indignation, raised by
the scheming bond brokers of this conn-
try, and the willy pawn brokers .. Eu-
rope. Neither will the people be de-
ceived by the extra noise or the JUNCTION
with which the case is pushed. The
single wolf which bowls the echoes Of
a dozen or a hundred is no terror TO
the plainsman who knows the forina-
ton of his larnyx, or the bowling fraud
with which he keeps the enemy at bay.
Let this hungry pack do its worst. The
people have their own ideas, and, when
the time comes, will see that a safe
currency is provided.
