Tke Plata Duty off Georgia and Florida.
“ We did not ourselves need the stem
teachings of war to point out long ago the
necessity and duty of building up our own
seaports by the concentration .of Southern
trade and capital. There was little reason
ten years ago and still less now in giving all
onr trade to New York, and if the planters
and producers of Georgia and Florida will
only follow the plainest dictates of prudence
and interest they can soon make Savannah
a cheaper and better market for themselves
than any other in the world.”
We would rather publish a longer article
from the same source whence the above ema
nates, than to enforce the duty indicated by
an editorial of our own. We have so often
and so earnestly labored to bring this subject
prominently before our readers, through the
columns of the Sentinel, that we have almost
made itatale; and yet, in the enforcement
of a duty Jyhich we honestly believe to be
vital to the present and ultimate prosperity
of our section, the people ought not to com
plain if we give them "line upon line, pre
cept upon precept.”
Ve are happy to bring to our aid, in the
discussion of this important subject, the
above extract from the pen of one of the
most gifted, clear-headed and far-seeing
editors in this State—Col. Wm. O. Girar
deau, of the Jefferson Gazette. ‘‘There
was little reason ten years ago, aQd still less
now, in giving all our trade to New York.
If the planters and producers of Georgia and
Florida will only follow" the plainest die-!
tates of prudence and interest they can soon
make Savannah a better and cheaper mar
ket for themselves than any other in the:
world.” It anv of our readers doubt this!
statement, let them ponder the facts below :j
Those grocers and other merchants in onr
Florida towns who have made all their pur
chases-in Savannah, during the past twelve!
months, have universally been more pros-:
perons in business than those who “have;
gone farther and fared worse'” Taking into
consideration the delays incident to goods
ordered from New York—the enormous
commissions charged—the frequent failure!
to receive the identical goods ordered—and
the loss and leakage inevitably attendant
upon frequent transhipment—Die truth of
the general proposition laid down above can
be demonstrated by facts and figures now
before our eyes.
We have often compared our own invoices
of goods ordered from New York, with those
purchased in Savannah, and the latter place!
has always been the cheaper market by five
or ten per cent. And in such material as is
consumed in enr printing business, we can
establish the fact beyond the shadow of a
doubt, that we can purchase cheaper in Sa
vannah than in New York, or auy other
Northern ports.
If this be true, now—and we can prove it
—what advantages over any other port might
Savannah offer to purchasers if all the coun
try reached by her extended railroad linei
should pour its entire trade into her gener
ous lap!
If New York can offer superior induce
ments for Southern trade, is it not because
Southern trader-blind to its own vital
interests and to the development of our own
straggling seaports—persistently turns its
great, enriching current away trom them, t<?
empty it into a Northern metropolis?—
Is it wise—is it patriotic—is it just—to
ignore the herculean efforts which our own
Southern seapoits are making to control
the trade of their section ?
Suppose Savannah had received one-ball
the Goorgia and Florida bade which hais
drifted Northward since th- surrender—what
would have been her condition, and ours,
now ? How many millions of dollars’ worth
of merchandise more wouid she have been
enabled to import, direct, from foreign man
ufactories?—merchandise that is tints im
ported, direct, by Northern cities and then
sold, with heavy percentage added, by North
ern to Southern merchants—to pay enormous
freights and commissions before they are of
fered for sale to the people, who, after all,
bear the bruut of the burden.
We verily believe that if all the trade
which goes from Georgia and Florida to New
York were given to Savannah for two sea
sons, we would have every advantage in that
enterprising city which could, possibly, be
claimed for New York.
With the means at her command, Savan
nah has wrought miracles. Already, thb
great centres of trade in the North tremblie
at .the indications of her controlling influence
in this section. Already her rivalry is for
midable; and if the people of the South
would appreciate their plain, and imperative
doty to themselves, their section and then-
own seaport towns, who doubts that they

Kilns Howe, Jr., the Inventor off the
Sewing Machine.
One of the interesting objects in the pre
sent exhibition ot the New York Academy of
Design, is the bust of Elias Howe, jr., the
inventor of the sewing machine, executed
by Ellis. Frequenters of Broadway will not
need to turn to the catalogue when they pause
before this work, for the faithful chisel of
the artist has reproduced those peculiarities
which render Mr. Howe one of the marked
men of the street. Nothing is wanting to
complete the portrait but to cover that mass
of Olympian curls with a steeple-crown hat,
such as we see in pictures of Cromwell’s
Roundheads, and of the Puritan fathers of
New England. The exhibition of this bast
is well-timed. An article appears in The
Atlantic Monthly for May, which relates in
considerable detail the strange history of the
invention which has rendered Elias Howe a
benefactor to mankind. Mr. Ellis shows the
S iblic, and will show posterity, how Mr.
owe looks, and Mr. Ptirton tells ns, in the
Atlantic, why he is worth looking at.
By the side of a mill-stream, in an old
town of Massachusetts, where his father was
a farmer and miller, Elias Howe was bom
in 1819. There was a vein of inventive in
genuity in the family. One of the uncles of
Elias invented a successful machine for split
ting Dalm leaf into strips for straw bats, and
the family could point to other ingenious de
vices originated among themselves. Elias
Howe spent his boyhood in assisting his
father in the culture of his farm and the run
ning of bis mills, and he was a self-support
ing individual, as Yankee boys usually arp,
as soon as be Could reach high enough to
let down the bars tor the cattle. At sixteen,
the family nest being overcrowded, the youth
went to Lowell, ^uere he found emplojt-
ment in a machine shop, and at twenty was
a journeyman machinist in Boston, earning
eight dollars a week. __
It was in a shop in Cornbill, Boston,
twenty-seven years ago, tbat the idea of sew
ing by machinery was dropped into the ac
tive brain of the future inventor. While he
and the other men of the shop were gathered
about an incomplete knitting-machine, in
conversation with the proprietor, the master:
of the shop said, in a caieless way, “Whydo
yon bother yonrselves with a knitting-ma
chine ?■ Why not make a sewing-machine ?”
To which tbe proprietor of the knittinir Ap
paratus replied, “You make a sewing-ma
chine, and I wilt insure yon an independent
fortune.” This conversation, in which Elias
Howe took no part, and which was imme
diately forgotten by all but bun, made a deep
impression upon his mind, and led him to
habitnal reflection Opon the puzzling problem
which it suggested. It was not, however,
until three or four years had elapsed, and
the charge of a growing family pressed hea
vily upon a frame unequal to tbe arduous
labors of a machinist, that he set himself se-.
riously to the task of inventing a sewing-
machine.
Helped to a little capital by an old school
mate, he shot himself in a garret at Cam
bridge, in December, 1844, and spent five
months in the attempt to put into steel and
brass tbe clear oonception ot a sewing ma
chine which had been gradually formed in
his mintl. Never’Whs a first attempt at an
invention of the first claas more successful.
In April, 1845, his machine sewed-stitches;
in May, it mo up seams at the rate of two
hundred and fifty stitches a minute—eight
times faster than they are usually sewed by
band. In July, 4wo complete suits of cloth
clothes were made upon the machine,
which was soon after publicly exhibited at
Boston, and patented. That identical first
sewing-machine, just as Elias Howe finished
it in 1845, is now in the iron safe of the Howe
Machine Company's establishment in Broad
way, and has recently sewed at the rate of
three hundred stitches a minute, and sewed
as well though not so fast, as the most im
proved machine in existence.
The trials of the inventor in getting his
invention before the public were long and
severe. The whole body of journeymen
tailors opposed it, and after two years of
effort not one machine had been sold. Mr.
Howe, despairing of success in his own
country, attempted England. During his
two years’ residence in London, he was re
duced to such an extreme of poverty that
be subsisted for a while on beans alone,
purchased with borrowed money and
cooked by himself ; and: when his wife was
about to return to America she was com
pelled to leave behind part of her own
clothes because there* was no money to pay
the washerwoman.
It was nine years after the completion of
the first machine before tbe invention yielded
a subsistence to tbe inventor, during which
he displayed extraordinary perseverance and
fortitude. Great has been his reward. Im
proved by the admirable devices ot Wilson
aud others, the American Sewing-Machine
has become universal; it is employed in
every civilized country, and is to-day doing
the work of millions of hands. It is com
puted tbat there are now made in the United
States, every working day oi' the year, one
thousand sewing-machines. One of onr
great manufacturers published a list of
thirty-nine of tbe principal cities of the
world in which supplies of bis machines are
regularly kept, and another owned sewing-
machine establishments in twenty-four cities.
It is not unusual for the leading makers,
such as the Howe Machine Company,
Wheeler A WilsoD, Singer Company, Gro
ver A Baker, and Wilcox & Gibbs, to sell
three hundred and fifty machines in a single
day.
These are wonderful feats The wonder
grows upon us when we consider that all this
prodigious addition to the working lorce of
mankind—this substantial and universal
good which at once enriches and honors the
nation—has sprang in 20 years from a
thought in the mind of an American me
chanic, patiently elaborated in a garret, and
heroically clung to till the world was com-'
pelled to appreciate it.
An HIstortczl Reminiscence off Jefferson
Davis, the Great State Prisoner.
[From the Siege of Washington, by Captain Adams.]
Thus ended the most remarkable siege history has
any account of.
And now, my son, I cannot close this history with
out a few words on the oharacter and oonduct of Mr.
Jefferson Davis, to whose ambition this seige of onr
capital was dae, It has been said by several of bis
friends, who have access to tbe newspapers, that lie
went Into this war not only very reluctantly, hut with
green spectacles on. Willing as I am to deal gene-
roualy with him, and to forgive him each and every
one of his sins, and to send him out into the world
to seek atonement for them, I cannot share this opin
ion. And for the reason that I happened to know Mr.
Davis in the summer of 1850, when he was the mov
ing spirit of a eonveotiou of “Fire-eaters,” that as
sembled together In Nashville, Tennessee. And I
have a slight recollection of a speech that he made on
that occasion, in which separation by arms was
urged, and no love for the Union advanced. I re
member, also, that that speech was rewarded with
hisses, notwithstanding the strong disunion clement
of the convention. His dislike of the Union and
plan for separating the nation, it' is well known, hail
keen the besotting sin of his brain for twenty years.
How, then, he could have engaged in this gigantic
rebellion with green spectacles on, I cannot just ex
actly see. It was the ignorant, unreasoning masses
of the South who were led into the rebellion with
green spectacles on—not men liko Mr. Davis. Uui,
my son, never strike a man when he is down; Ibat is
the work oi cowards.
Let ns give Mr. Davis credit for snch virtues as he
had, and for the rnauner In which he exerted them
in keeping life and strength in the government he at
tempted to set up. lu connection with the rebellion,
we had to deal with XIr. Davis moro in his character
is a Soldier than a statesman. Mr. Davis was un
doubtedly an able soldier. He was the head and
front, the very life and sonl of the men in the South.
Born to those qualities of pride, self-esteem, and self-
will, all of which produce confidence in the possessor,
he grew up feeling himself superior, as he was, to the
ordinary men of his age. He inherited at the same
time great fixedness of purpose and determination;
and so prominent were these traits of his character,
that they impressed every one who came in conlact
with him.
These, my son, were tbe attributes that gave wings
to the.man's ambition and found him aspiring to one
of the*high places in the temple of fame. Tile nation
gave him a thorough military education at West Point,
and he afterwards learned the practical duties oi a
soldier in the Black Hawk war. On the return of
peace he resigned and sought distinction in political
life. He had succeeded in reaching the House of
Representatives when the war with Mexico broke out,
and be resigned and again went to the field. And,
notwithstanding what has been said to the contrary,
he won great distinction in this war. Military men
everywhere did him justice. The "Mississippi Rifles”
will be remembered as long as the battle of Buena
Vista.
At the close of tho war, he. again relinquished the
■word, and was sent to the United States fcenato,
where he was made chairman of the committee on
Military Affairs. His highest ambition was to shine
as a statesman. He afterwards served four years as
Secretary of War, and then returned to the Senate,
where Hie rebellion lound him elevated to the chair
manship of the committee on Military Affairs.
Hls education, his services in the army, his posi
tion as Secretary of War, and in the Senate, enabled
him to become thoronghly acquainted with our army,
with iU customs, its laws, its materials, its wants,
and, above all, the character of its officers. He was,
perhaps, better acquainted with these things than any
other man in the United States. Nor was he deficient
in knowledge of the character of leading public men
at tbe North and West. What he had not studied
well,.however, was the character and the patriotism
of £he people of those sections of ouf country.
It was tbe ripe fruit of this knowledge, then, that
Mr. Davis applied in each department of the, rebel
government, and it was this that made him of such
incalculahle value to the rebellion. We have seen
and even admired the power with which he wielded
the scanty resources of the South. And we have seen
the wisdom which he displayed from the very first in
tbe selection of bis generals. With rare exceptions,
he put the right man in the right place. He knew
tbe Importance of placing soldiers In command, when
soldiers' duty was to be performed. It would have
been fortunate Cot us if we had exercised similar tris-
do'm. * When, the rebellion began then was no man
to be found in tho South to have taken the place of
Mr. Daws! ft 18 sot too much to Ay that had he re-
unload loyal to-bia country, and been elevated to-the
command of our armies when tho war began, he
would have qnickly crashed out the rebellion. With
hie grasp cf mind, and hls iron wUl. he would have
so wielded the great resources of the North and West
that the rebellion would have been crushed in a year
from its birth. And this was the man onr authori
ties at Washington supposed would not, or could not,
attack the capital after it bad been stripped ot its
proper garrison. Let the troth be told : Davis wss
not the man to let snch a blander go unnoticed.
Wind-power foe Farmers.—On several occasions
we have referred to the value of wind-power npun
farms for tbe purpose of raising water. We have
seen it in operation a number of times for this pur
pose, and learned that it answered every anticipation.
On farms where there is no running water and wells
have to be resorted to for watering stock, as well as
for domestic purposes, we should regard such power
as extremely valuable. The water can be readily
pumped to a reservoir of any desirable height, from
which the barnyard and every part of the house
coaid have aconetant supply. Or where there is a
running brook some distance from the buildings the
power coaid be used In the same way. Gardens, and
even fields, could be irrigated, to aay nothing of hav
ing constant water in the cattle troughs and in the
dwelling houses for'all domestic uses.
These wind-power, it la laid, are now manufactured
especially to be used in this way, and pre simple In
their construction, easily manufactured, durable, and
cheap. If tbia be so the manufacturers should make
it known, If they desire to famish them to fanners
and others.—Bxci
Consumption ar Enos in New York.—It i* esti
mated that one mil libs of eggs are consumed each
month in this city. One dealer in Philadelphia sends
here one hundred barrels each day, and it is esti
mated tbat at least $8,000,000 are annaally spent for
eggs alone. The Fifth A venue Hotel consumes about
abont one Barrel each day, and the Astor House about
four thousand each day for fonr days in the week,
and Saturday twenty-five hundred. Easter week is
the beat season for egg dealers, when from one thous
and to fifteen hundred barrels are con earned each
day. A woman in Fulton Market sold one hundred
and seventy-five thousand eggs in ten days. The
trade ia confined almost exclusively to bens’ eggs.
No eggs are shipped from this port to Europe.—.V. Y.

to be insured forever without any further payment.
This deposit may be withdrawn by the Policy-hold
er after the iapee of any number of years, the whoi#
amount, 1cm 6 per cent, being returned.
For instance, ir the anBnal premium for the ieenr-
ance of a dwelling is $20, the premium for a perm**
nent Policy wonld be $200, and if the Policy is can
celled after being in force twenty, fifty, or any num
ber of yean, $190 wonld be returned
Permanent Policies are nearly fifty, per cent cheap
er than usual, the saving will, in lens than fifteen
years, amount to the permanent premium; the prop
erty therefore continues insured thereafter without
farther cost.
By permanent Policies, the risk and trouble of re
newals is avoided, rendering them particularly ad
vantageous to Mortgagees, Executors, and persona
