“A little batch of brick and iron dumped

this unpretentious building, however, are
heaps of bags containing gold and silver,
amounting one day last month to $14,500,-

gold, while the safes contained $*,000,000

The agricultural statistics of Ireland
for ISS2 are of a dismal character. They
disclose the fact that the loss in the money
value of the crops of 1882, as compared
with their value in 1881, amounted to over
£5,750,000. Compared with the average
value of the crops of the past ten years,
the crop of last year shows a falling off of
£2,500,000, which is partially explained by
the decrease in acreage, the diminution in
1882 as compared with the year previous
being 120,000 acres. Tjjhe worst feature of
the showing is the fact that the greatest
failure is in the potato crop, the loss on
which is placed at $4,500,000. It is thought
that this will cause a recurrence of the
distress which prevailed a few years ago.
But for the failure of the crops, Ireland
might congratulate herself on her pros
perity, as business and trade have shown
signs of revival. •
The lliver and Harbor BilL
The House Committee on Commerce
felt called upon after reporting the river
and harbor bill to enter upon a
defense of their action. Their plea
has been criticised ferociously
by numerous journals published
in cities that have sucked the public teat
to satiety. This was to have been ex
pected. It was entirely needless for the
committee to have made the defense. It
has by practice Income the duty of the
committee to rei>ort a river and harbor bill
at every session. Their chief responsi
bility is to discharge this duty to the best
of tlieir ability with the light afforded
them. If improper items are embodied iu
the Mil, it beeomes the duty of every
Representative and Senator to examine
such and to withhold his voteon becoming
convinced of their impropriety.
True, the committee could prevent by
due diligence much improjier legisla
tion, but. as it is the privilege
of anv member of either house to
move amendments. Congress as a
lioily becomes iu the end responsible
for river and harlsir bills, and the Com
mittee on Commerce have no need to apol
ogize lor such. The bulk of the money
appropriated by the projiosed bill is need
ed lor improvements already' in progress
or to lie begun, and should be promptly
voted. There should l*e intelligence
enough in Congress to judge ot improper
appropriations aud to withhold such.
But Congress should be swayed in no
resjieet by the clamor of the sujierpatriotic
editots, who shriek over “river aud harbor
steals,” but are quite content that the
taxes should be kept at present rates, that
the people may be plundered by the bene
ficiaries of sjiecial legislation. If the
treasury were empty and an impoverished
people were to be taxed additionally
for river and harbor improve
ments, the question would present a dif
ferent phase. But the United States are
abundantly able to defray the cost of all
needed works of this kind, and every
such work completed is a benefit to the
entire country.
Southern Congressmen, lly,
should turn a deaf ear to the bullying and
cajoling of such journals as affect to teel
outraged at the bare proposal of a river
and harbor bill. These journals, it they
speak for anybody, speak for peo
ple who have received so
much Federal bounty that they
are almost ashamed to ask for more. It
is urgett that the President expressed the
hoje that no river and liartior bill would
lie deemed necessary at this session. It
is for Congress to say whether such a
measure is necessary ami for
the President to veto the same,
if not satisfied with its pro
visions. The last river and harbor bill,
despite its objectionable features, was
about the only measure of national benefit
that Congress passed at the last session,
aud the proposed bill, if adopted and ap
proved, Will be about the only benefit the
people will have experienced at the pres
ent sessiou.
The Barge Canal and the Florida
Legislature.
The tollowing paragraph appeared in
our Tallahassee correspondence cf Satur
day last;
“The canal bill to connect the Gulf with
the Atlantic, via the Okefinokee swamp
and St. Mary’s river, and which has
among its incorporators such men as
Governor Drew, General Finley and Ma
jor Fairbanks, seems doomed to perish
for want of attention. It is somewhat
strange that it has not attracted greater
notice, for it appears to lie a ix-rfeetly
feasible enterprise aud one that would
accomplish great results. The term is
fast growing short for all bills of this
description, and unless it is
more powerfully backed than it lias
been, its defeat is certain.”
The danger to this measure seems to be
the modesty of the gentlemen connected
with it, and the confidence they seem to
rejiose in the integrity and public spirit of
the Florida Legislature. Had they asked
for millions of acres of the public land,
pressed their demand with a liberal hand,
and filled the corridors of the capitol with
button-hole gentlemen of lobbying celeb
rity, would the enterprise have been ren
dered more feasible and inqiortant? Yet
such is the inference to be drawn from the
language of our vigilant aud very able
corns,KMident. But-the Barge Canal Com
pany does not seem to have designed a
very heavy draft upon our sister
State, and modestly confined itself to
the right of way for the canal,
with such franchises only as were deemed
necessary for its full operation. Surely it
needed no “powerful backing” to draw
from the state this small request. With
such a work in operation can any one doubt
that the State ol Florida would be the
chief beneficiary? What is the nature of
the enterprise projected by this company,
and what the compensation proposed for
the State? No less than a navi
gable canal for barges and other
small crafts, crossing the northern
barrens of the peninsula, curving
southwest 170 miles to St. Marks
on the Gulf, theree establish U good
hariior where none now exists, opening
the inland waters of the Gulf to naviga
tion for nearly three hundred miles along
the west coast of the State, and bringing
through its great length from east to west
the limitless trade of the mighty Missis
sippi. In accomplishing this project the
company will of necessity drain for
Florida about 180,000 acres of superb
lands in Okefinokee, about the same in
San Pedro swamp, west of the Suwannee,
ami numerous smaller bodies along the
line, beside opening up to settlement,
agriculture and general industry a vast
wilderness of low, flat pine forest, now
almost uninhabited, and which all the
genius of enterprise has hitherto failed to
utilize or render more valuable to the
State.
Is it necessary to get up a “powerful
backing” for such a proposition as this
in order to enable Florida legislators to
perceive its merits? The gentlemen repre
senting the measure probably relied upon
the manifest character of these great
claims not only to win Uie Legislature, but
every public spirited, patriotic citizen of
the State. We have no personal acquaint
ance with either of them, but they are
well known beyond the limits of the State
they have so much honored, and as Geor
gia has no small interest involved in the
enterprise we naturally desire their suc
cess. That the feasibility and public ne
cessity of the work will, in time, enforce
its construction, we have no reason to
doubt, but States, like individuals, may
long defer prosperity and thrift by short
sighted policy, or neglect to examine criti
cally the advantages of their surround
ings.
A veteran distiller has suggested lo a
YV nshington newspaper correspondent a
way by which the national banks and
other holders of whisky bond certificates
could avoid the payment of the tax to the
government in the event of the failure by
Congress to pass the bonded extension
bill. Said he: “We could ship our whisky
into Canada, and without unloading it
from the cars could return it to this coun
try. The government would have to pro
vide warehouses for us, and hold the
whisky until we get ready to place it on
the market. It would only cost on au
average forty cents .a barrel to ex
port liquor to Canada.' This would be
trifling in comparison to the tax due
at ninety cents on a gallon. As soon as
the Canadian authorities had certified to
the officials at the Treasury Department
to the effect that so much whisky had
been exported from this country, our
bondsmen would be released. All the ex
tra exitense we would have would be the
cost of transporting the liquor into Can
ada. This course will be adopted if Con
gress adjourns without taking action on
the bonded extension bill. It will relieve
the national banks that hold our paper
from embarrassment, and prevent any
thing like a financial panic. We have
been aware,” he said, in conclusion, “of
this loophole of escape, but have said
nothing about it in hopes that Congress
would make the step unnecessary.”

The legislative enemy of railroads is a

has made so much music for him, that he
regards every public institution as an en

operated at a loss to the company, no
matter how high the rate of fare might be,
he would lx* in favor of more roads. The
fact that railroads cau be made profitable
is what hurts him.

COTTON SEED OIL MILLS!
We have been for a year past experimenting with an<l perfecting our “COTTON
SEED OIL MILL,” anil have succeeded in making a Mill, for a very moderate cost,
that will do as good work as the large and expensive mills, and, for convenience of
arrangement, ease of working, and complete details, is not surpassed by any.
This style of Mill has long been wanted in the Southern country, and one should
be established in every neighborhood, to afford a home market for Cotton Seed, the
hulls and meal of which, after the oil has been extracted, is as valuable for fer
tilizing purposes as before. Tbe Cotton Seed Meal is also very valuable for feeding
stock, and flnde a ready market at good prices. The oil is well known to have quick sale.
„ , Mill-. (No. 1 Mill (Capacity, 2 tons of Seed perday) #I,BOO
Prices of our Mills. uni (Capacity, 4 tans of Seed perday) *,500
These prices, of course, do not include Engines, Shafting, Pulleys, etc. We are
prepared to give estimates for Mills complete, including Engines,Shafting,Fulleys,etc.
Our Mills can be run by tbe usual Gin engines ol 10 horse power and upwards.
We would lie glad to correspond with any one wishing to buy a Cotton Seed Oil
lMill the coming season, and will give them close estimates of everything needed to
m ake a successful business of it. Very respectfully,
