. _ AfTairs in The East.
; * Thinking that, home affairs are of more im
portance and interest to our readers than the
transactions of thejr armies in for
eign lands, we have hitherto said but little
about the great questions that are agitating
other Countries. Tbit now as there seems to
boa war-cloud gathering in the East that will,
in all probability, effect our grain and cotton
crops to some considerable extent, it . may
soon become necessary for our readers to feel
some interest in the matter for themselves.
One thing now seems certain ; there is great
dissatisfaction among some of the leading
powers of the Old World, and no one can tel!
what a day may bring forth.' England and
Russia arc now looking each other in the face
near Constantinople, and the dogs of war
are growling in their kennels. Austria nat
ural!}’’becomes England’s ally, awl Russia,
resting upon her laurels lately won, cannot
afford to back an inch. The Turk is now the
smallest factor in the problem, and the quar
rel. if quarrel there be,'will be over the bones
left by the Russians.
The people of the South will do well to
watch the flapping signals of war, and de
stroy its effects bv planting a large grain crop
which, under any circumstances, will tie the
best thing our planters can do to promote the
prosperity of the whole country.’ Without a
bountiful supply of provisions, we have all
to lose, and the North everything to gain by
a general conflict in the East.

Colton Picking by Machinery.
We were recently in conversation with a
company of gentlemen, who among other
things, were talking a limit the expenses inci
dent to the picking of cotton. When the
possibility of a picking machine was suggest
ed, the idea was, without hesitation, pro
nounced absurd, and voted an impossibility.
Genius, however, will triumph, and the fol
lowing from a Carolina paper, will show that
the process of picking cotton is about to be
completely revolutionized.
O. R. Smith, of Releigb, N. C., has invent
ed and patented a cotton picker which pro
mises to effect a revolution in the harvesting
of cotton, and it is said will do the work of
100 laborers in the field. The machine is
about the size and weight of a two-horse wa
gon. and is upon three wheels, the centre one
running between two rows and the others
outside of them. The two driving wheels
from which is worked the machinery, are high
enough to carry everything above the cotton.
The front wheel is about half the height, and
works under the machine on a pivot joint, to
which are attached the horses, which walk
between the rows. The picking machinery
consists of two* hundred finger-shaped cards
on Indiarubber, working up and down through
the stalks as the machine advances.
These cards will not take hold of an}’ tiling
but the lint of the open cotton, and takes
that whether it is upon the ground or the top
of the stalk. Leaves, twigs and hulls will
not stick to them, but the cotton touched in
ever so small a degree instantly adheres, and
will not let go until brushed off at the top by
a brusher, whence it is trken on an apron of
bands and deposited in a receptacle to the
rear in a light strait form, entirely free from
dirt. The whole machine is reduced to its
lowest simplicity, has adjustable parts, is very
durable and easily managed.
The driver by leaning back in his seat can
stop the picking in order to drive to the place
of deposit and unload. This is done without
throwing the wheels out of gear. The har
vester is estimated to pick out the cotton at
the cost of one dollar per bale, and in every
way is a complete machine, as lias been
proved by practical use. Mr. Smith propos
es introducing his machine as thoroughly
practicable for the ensuing crop, and to this
end will sell it in each of the cotton States at
manufacturer’s cost. S2OO, so as to establish
its worth, although S3OO is the price. Or the
patentee, taking a small per cent, in cash
with the balance to be made out of the ma
chine.
Talking Horse and Acting J Mule.
The following from Conkling’s Utica Re
publican. is intended to cut out the political
dress of somebody’s President. Who is it ?
“When the President of the United States
proclaims himself a chosen reformer of the
civil service, and at the same time fills the
public service with his and his wife’s relatives
down to cousins-in-law, makes his business
partner in land speculations the Commission
er of Agriculture, gives important positions
to alibis political cronies at home, orders
that officials shall give no time to politics,
and allows his Secretary of State to take
$25,000 fees and spend weeks in lawsuits,
says that Republican Senators must not in
terfere in appointments and at the same
time consults daily with Southern Democratic
Senators, quotes the Cincinnati platform
against Congressional interference with his
perquisites, and at the same time allows the
Post Office Department to issue circulars in
viting Congressmen to name their condidates
for the various post offices in their districts—
when a President thus talks forever like a
saint and acts perpetually like a sinner, we
have not the slightest hesitation in proclaim
ing his professions of political purity to be a
sham and a fraud”
Suffering in China.
Across the wide ocean comes the following
tale of deep distress :
In northern China people of all ages are
dying of actual starvation oy thousands. The
famine extends over a district which includes
at least 5,000 villages, and it is said that at
least five hundred die daily. Houses are
pulled down in every village to sell the tim
ber and thatch in order to get food. Those
who can get husks and dry leaves, ordinarily !
used for fuel, are considered well off. Most
of the poor >oung girls have been sold ; old !
men. middle aged men and young men and
childred die daily of sheer starvation, and
others freeze. The dead cannot get a burial ;
they are too many, and none can offord the
expense: so they are cast daily into large
pits. The people at Shansi are said to be
living on the corpses of their fellow-beings
who die of starvation. And. the strong are
killing the weak for the. sak<> of obtaining
their flesh for food.
Are we drifting back into, barbarism ?
South Carolina", Louisiana and Texas have,
within a few weeks, lost each its man in the
“field of honor,’' and Kentucky is "about to
go back to the whipping-post of its papas.—

The Letter and its Answer.
r , • —■ -•%•- % •* . ... f , V
Editok FouesT News :—Wlien I was "a
little girl, you taught me many pretty things j
but I was too young* and perhaps, too way
ward, to remember them. 1 have recently
seen some, pretty things that you have .said
in a very pretty way, and they so much re
mind me of the days of my childhood, that I
would again like to hear you’talk of the
sources from whence you drew them—your
perceptions of the beautiful. I am older
now, and will try to appreciate them.
Still your friend, „
Litie Lane. .
' ft ? r •* '- ft*' -i
Yes, Litie, we will answer your letter as
best we can, but lot us first thank you for the
“very pretty’’ way in which you see proper
to mention some of our very humble efforts.
Yes, we thank you heartily, and all the more
because we know that the sentiment,comes
from a heart as pure and noble in its full
maturity as it was in its early innocence ,and
sweetness, , ....
Were it not that you would shrink from
personal allusions, we would not want a bet
ter theme to bring out what you call our per*
ceptio.ll9 of the beautiful than your own life
and character would afford,, ns* but a ban
being on this, we will iuvitc your, attention
to another field, that all may see, and then say
it is beautiful. ..
Then, to-night, when one by one the atarjs
come stepping out upon the grand panorama
where nature's God has made them tp play,
take your seat in “the old porch,” where you
used to sit upon our knee and listen to tjhe
trolling song of the katydids, and you will
see as much of beauty as the highest gifted
mind of earth is capable of surveying. Yes,
through the grand old oaks which a long time
ago sang us an evening lullaby, cast your
eye 9 towards Heaven, where this star-gemmed
canopy of night is spread with myriads of
sparkling worlds, and behold, Litie, how
beautiful. See yonder, where Aurora has
just opened the eastern gates, and the sun
with his last golden smile has touched lip a
gorgeous rainbow to arch them over, how
grand the design, and bow God-like the
lessons taught us !
But beauty is everywhere. It is seen in
the lofty forest trees that bend their waving
crests to kiss the first tinge of morning. It
glows in the summer flowers that, loaded
wit'n the night-dews, glisten in the early sun
like gems of the purest water. Yon can trace
the hand of beauty in the rolling landscape,
in the grand scenery of the towering moun
tains, in the running streams, dancing to the
music they make while rippling along their
rock-paved channels ; now concealed beneath
the rich foliage, now winding in majesty far
away through the rolling plains and undula
ting meadows: sparkling and girding the
land like belts of silver. Look, Litie ! don't
you see the beauty ? aye ! and feel it, too ?
Not only is there beauty in the circling
heavens and the earth on which we tread;; but
there is a marvelous beauty in the human
form, in its perfect symmetry; the Olym
pian forehead, the finely chiseled features, the
rosy cheek, and the sparkling lustre of the
eye.
There is beauty too, in the sublime creations
of the lofty ideal ; in the sculptured marble,
and upon the glowing canvass where lines
of ever living beauty have been traced by
your own hand. And here beauty reaches to
its highest earthly perfection, and trenches
closely upon that of Heaven itself. Beauty,
as felt by the high-tuned soul, is the ineffable
grace of nature —the smile of Deity and the
light of that very soul, and pure devotion to
it, is the out-gushing of the highest inspiration
known to mortals. By communing with these
beauties, we approach to the highest concep
tions of the great unseen Beauty.
Adam Clarke once said, that no worshipper
of the beautiful, whose heart is sensible to
the charms and teachings of nature, can be
an infidel. A greater truth was never utter
ed, and yet this grand theme, this soul-stir
ring anthem is almost totally neglectgd in
our homes, our schools, and even in our pul
pits. Beauty is as essential to sonl-gtowth
as music is to the cultivation of the ear, and
there is but little aspiration above the gro
velling passions of earth where the soul is
not susceptible to its influences.
We should seek to cultivate an apprecia
tive taste, and it is one of the highest of hu
man duties to have all things appear as beau
tiful as our circumstances in life will allow
us to do. Select the person who is by cus
tom and habit slovenly in appearance, loose
in manners and untidy in dress, caring noth
ing for. beauty and refinement, and you will
find the mind of that person to be of the
coarsest textifre, and. with-an utter want of
those finer feelings, keener sensibilities and
noblo impulses which constitutes a hftppy
and genial being. They often think pf little
things, and seldom perform great ones;
But there is a higher order of beauty which
we should seek and cultivate, and froro which
our highest perceptions flow. It is to polish
and embelish that part of our being which is
immortal; which bears the signet of Divine
impress, and whose beauty is imperishable.
We should not only strive to make 'every
thing around us beautiful, but our tlmughts,
words, and spirits should be so. Let the
young man who sports a large quantity of
jewelry and engages in every fantastic trap
ping of human display remember thatrliehad
better seek for. intellectual gems; let |ps;
mind receive the magic touches of education,
and invigorate, brighten ami purify it in tbe
furnace of discipline, that it may shine forth
with a beauty that will never fade.
Let the young lady who indulges in all the
glittering gewgaws of the day in order to
effect and please, remember that the time
thus consumed had better be spent in gather
ing a wreath of pearls from the fount, of
knowledge, to deck her brow and Jo robe
herself in all the adorning beauties of virtue.
These, Litie, are some of the sources from
which wc think beauties may be constantly ;
drawn, and while we deplore our own want of
them, allow us to rejoice over the knowledge
gained from the foregoing extract from your
letter, that we have been instrumental in
pointing them out to others who have gather
ed them in due time and season.
The Parent of luMomnin.
The parent of insomnia or wakefulness is in nine
cases out often a dyspeptic stomach, (jood di
gestion gives sound sleep, indigestion interferes
with it. ‘ The brain and stomach sympathize.
Ono of the promhent symptoms of a weak state
of the gastric organs is a disturbance of the great
'nerve entrepot, the brain. Invigorate the stom
ach, and you restore equilibrium to the great cen
tre. A most reliable medicine for the purpose is
Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, which is far prefera
ble to mineral sedatives and powerful narcotics
which, though they may. for a time exert a sopo
rific upon the brain, soon cease to act, and invaria
bly injure the tone of the stomach. The Bitters,
on the contrary, restore activity to the operations
of that all important organ and their beneficent
influence reflected in sound sleep and a tranquil
state of the nervous system'. A wholesome im
petus is likewise given to the action of the liver
and bowels by its use.
The Croup.- —The Journal of Health
When a child is taken with croup, instantly
apply cold water —joe water if possible—sud
denly and freely to the neck and chest with
a sponge, The breathing will almost be
instantly relieved. Let the sufferer also
drink freely of the cold water. Then wipe it
dry, cover it warm, and soon a quiet slum
ber will relieve all anxiety. It is best in
serious cases to send for a physician a3 soon
as possible. -
