* • l - 1 '"'l' ~ ■ She Jftemtoe FORSYTH. TUESDAY, JAN. 28, 1873. DAY DREAMS. A dream, of abeautifal morn Witbeut cloud, or mist, or gale; A dream, of a beautiful river Studded with many a sail. A dream, of a Uny boat * Rowing out from tbe sandy shore Around which tbe rippling waters play (Biigbt with tbe tints of tbe new born day) As they drip fiom each plashing oar. In that boat on that beautiful morn On the wave of tbe thining Savannah, The river zephyrs around us alrig (As if fanned into life by an angel’s wing, A seraph-tuned hosannah. A dream, of a beautiful girl On tbe wave in tha mystic boat, With peerless form and fair young face; As down the river we float Away down by the grassy bank On the breast of the flowing stream, Away with the rushing current swee.p Away o’er the face of the waters deep, We glide in this beautiful dream. Away in that magic boat. On the breast of the matchless Savannah, And the incensed air, Fillad with cLoral prayer, Is singing the soul’s hosannah. A dream, of another time; I visit the self same place, The river is here, but where is tbe boat? And where is that fair young face ? I 6tand by tbe river alone And ask, have they vanished forever ? The stream is dark, the clouds are low, And white clouds are flitting to and tro O’er the waves of the gloomy river; No answer the waters letnrn— No answer—the sullen Savannah. And I bear the sound Of the waves around, But I hear not that sweet hosannah. Tub Incoming Cotton Ckof Smith, Edwards <fc Co.’s last Liverpool circular says: There is still a strange difference of opinion about the result of the American cotton crop. The favorite opinion in America has recently been for a total yield of 3,008,000 to 3,750,0(0 bales ; but some good authorities do not think it can reach 3,500,000, and believe I bat public opinion is exag gerating it juat as it did last year. The great fall ing off in receipts the last few weeks appears to favor the shorter estimates; certainly the figures of last week (105,000 bales) are alarming, but it i explained in America ttiat the rivers are unusually low, and that the spread of an epidemic among the horses and mules has Impeded transport and delayed the receipts unnaturally. 8o general is this opinion that we are bound to believe it has some truth. At the same time it hardly appears to us sufficient to explain the short receipts, and we must confess to an apprehension that this crop ay prove disappointing, like the last one. We fear comparisons have been made too much with the monster crop of 1870—’71, forgetting that the yield that year was quite extraordinary, and probably three quarters of a million above what even an ordinary good crop would nave produced. We do not, however, pronounce any decided opinion on the crop question. We admit that it is quite on the cards that the receipts may largely increase in the spring and swell the crop up to 3% millions; but it seems to us equally probable that the result may only be 3)£ millions, and if the receipts keep small a iew weeks longer we shail incline to put a stop at 3% millions or less. These estimates we mean to comprehend the whole growth, including Southern consump tion, for that is now adopted as the American way of reckoning. A Nt'MHBK of Boston workmen, instead of being grateful to Grant for securing them as far a9 in his power ten hours’ pay for eight hours’ work, inform him in a set resolution just laid before Congress that they are severely opposed to rais ing the Presidential salary from ? 15,000 to $50,- 000, “as wages are always lowest in those coun tries where governmental or official salaries are highest;” which is absurdly untrue, both as a fact and as cause and effect.

At all the Fairs where Exhibited, in competition with the various Screw or Lever Presses, THE ECLIPSE COTTON PRESS. i (Patented February 21, 1571.) Has, in every Instance, far excelled all in Rapidity, Light Draught and General Convenience. * Warranted FASTER, LIGHTER DRAUGHT, MORE DURABLE, AND CHEAPER than any other known SCREW COTTON PRESS, whether of Woid. Cast or Wrought. Irou. Will PACK TWICE AS FAST, (requiring less power,) by means of our FRICTIONLESS NUT, as any other Screw Press Manufactured. By reason of its great rapidity, astonishing light draught, strength and durability, the “ECLIPSE” is rapidly superceding all others. Three men at the Levers can pack a 500 to TOO lbs, bale in two to two and a half minutes. Twelve rounds or revolutions cf the Lever pack the bale. Compare this with the Speed and Draught of other Screws. Such unbounded success has the “ ECLIPSE” enjoyed, that we GUARANTEE IT, in every par ticular, SUPERIOR to the Screw Press cf anybody, and bind ourselves to make'good any deficiency or breakage that may occur WITHIN THREE YEARS AFTER PURCHASE. ISP SATISFACTION GUARANTEED OR PRICE REFUNDED. Our new arrangement for opening all the doors of Press simultaneously, is cheap and effective an vastly superior to anything of the kind ever yet offered. ’ tor Circular containing Price and Testimonials.

ZELLNER. Macon, Ga., September 26th, 1871. fo J e - u u de r?'gned> having witnessed the Findlay & Craig Eclipse Screw Cotton Press, (inanu lacturea by K. iindlay s Sons, Macon,) in actual operation, do not hestLate to heartily recommend it to our planting friends and customers as a Cotton Press possessing l several mw and commendable features; prominent among which are rapidity, light draught, strength, simplicity, adjustability, durability standing room at the top of the box, and general conveniences. The Screw Pin has a puen, or tall, of b)£ inches, rendering it uncommonly quick in action ; and the anti friction device is ucn ss to rtquue much less power to operate it, than the Ordinary Screw Press, having a pitch or fan o. one or two inches. Twelve revolutions of levers run the Follow Block down, and tyro ordi nary hands, in our opinion, can with comparative ease pack a 500 pound bale of cotton. Iu short it is tht ias est, easiest worked, and most convenient Press we have ever seen operated. It can be either by band or horsepower, at option of planter. The proprietors iutoim us that they guarantee their Press in every particular. ~ _ ( J AS. M. SIMMONS, Representing Adams, Bazcmore & Ware. Cotton I actors, | B. L.

Fort Valley, Houston County Ga., .January, 1872. Messrs. R. FINDLAY’S SONS, “Findlay Iron Works,” Macon, Ga. Gents: Having purchased of you last fell a “ Findlay and Craig Eclipse Screw” Cotton Press, it affords me great pleasure to send you my certificate of more than satisfaction. From reports made by parties using the Press, I must confess that I expected to find it superior to ail others—yvhethtr of e Wood Screw but did not anticipate such grand results. Gentlemen, in introducin'’’ the Eclipse I ress, you have gained a sweeping victory over all competition. None that I ever saw? or heard of, can even approach it in excellence. It possesses great speed, (faster than old Wood .-Crew even,) having a pitch, or fall, of inches. The light draught—the result of your anti-lriction device is wonderful, great box room at top, and numerous conveniences, still further commend the Eclipse to any planter wanting a Cotton Press. My warehouse receipts show that my bales packed on the Eclipse, by one light mule, range from Seven to Eight Hundred pounds each, and I candidly believe that a 500 pound bale can be packed iu my Press by one man at the Lever. I cannot say too much in favor of your “Eclipse,” in tact, not enough. For quick and heavy work, and light draught, you certainly eclipse ah others, leaving competition far behind. In regard to durability, I consider it as dutable as any Press ever manufactured, and, in my opinion, will last generations. Don’t ba afraid to guarantee them thoroughly, you will have as many orders as you can fill, I believe and hope, x our advertisement truthluily asserts that “ The Eclipse Cotton Press” is the best in the world.
