TUESDAY MORNING, JULY 18. 1871.
“.Snrali Strong” Speaks Her Mind.
Editor* Telegraph and Jfettenyer : I live not
more than a hundred miles from Garden Valley,
Macon county, Ga. I am an individual who
likes to see, and am in favor of, things being
done neatly and in order, if I do not always do
them so myself; although I am always very
particular and invariably consider all things,
with which I am concerned, thoroughly before
I act or speak. I am a fe male, which my name
tells you, and in belief that woman 1 * right* (so-
called! is a law. aa godly, correct and proper as
any that has ever yet or ever will be established,
1 am anetrong as Methuselah was old. Although
I look upon it in a different light, quite, from
the strong minded mulieri of the North ; (for I
believe the dittemper is more prevalent there
than in our beautiful South.) I am opposed to
women voting and attending to the public duties
of a government, and even to the local affairs
of so small a division as the smallest of counties,
that is, if the men have an inclination to favor
the interest and welfare of the same. But if
the men are backward in the execution of such
business as is in any way urgent, I say, women
if you don’t make public speeches for the sake
of peace and the retention of good society and
the prevention of frequent political mu**es,
- make some insinuations to influence the men to
oppose and impede unnecessary movements of
some hallucinatory characters in your country.
I am opposed to women being abused when
they express themselves concerning a move
ment of which they doubt the propriety, and no
gentleman will reprimand a lady as did one
“Justice,” of Taylor county, harshly write con
cerning me, caused by a communication which
I wrote and signed “S,” ono of my initials.
Considering what influenced him to respond to
“8, ” and considering the exaggerating response,
ho is guilty of using a very unfit nom deplume
to the piece of eloqucnco of which he so inso
lently boasts, but which I consider a Qrub*lrcet
production. But “in all kindness of feeling I
would advise” our sancy improtisalore to either
take a departure to New Mexico and join the
fiendish Apache, which would no doubt suit
him, or to take his brethren who aro desirous
of the “new county” and stop not this side of
Alaska, where ho may obtain as many and as
large oounties as he please. But to obtain ono
and namo it “Jnstice,” and thore reside till
death shall steal his (if he has one) soul from
out his orangotangal form! I am an ironical
woman. I am not a married woman. If Mr.
“Justice" is a married man he would do well to
shave, tohavo his hair shingled, to put on tight
legged pants and a monkey jacket, before ho
visits Garden Valley, unless he shall oonceal
the fact that he is “Jnstice,” i. e. if I am any
where about. I would not for all the world of
fend the mind of any gentleman. I desire to
be at peaco with all the young m—, with all
mankind. I don’t think our spnnky friend is a
married character. I am keeping house for
one of my cousins, who is farming. He don’t
like to live up here much. He came from Flor
ida. He may leave soon. Mr. “Jnstice,” if
you ever oomo down this way call on us. I am
Bure you would be treated with much respect
and accommodatingly. I don’t know what I’ll
do when ho leaves; i. o. cousin Tom, when he
leaves. Wo work a good many freedmen. I
wonder if Sir. “Justice” is a good hand to man
age ’em. Taylor county is natnrally poor, but
in art and scionce is bb well represented as any
in the State which has no city. Don’t imagine
that I am apologizing; for not so. Tho fonco-
rail that answered my other is the ono to apol
ogize. Am I using the right word here, apologize ?
I aim at no eloquence. I writo not to see my
self in print ns did “Justice.” I send you this
unpremeditated reply. I would not have re
plied but on neconnt of the misinterpretation of
my silence. If be had written a kind, senble re
ply I would not have answered. Then, I did
not fail to reply at once because he requested
me to "dry up," or becauso I wns, (as some
seem to imagine.) pretty bndly “Ku-kluxed.'"
Any man that will write an article about a wo
man will steal chickens, and onght to be placed
in a cazy vessel, carried to tho centre of the
Atlantic, and there left exposed to the mercy of
the winds.
The farmers of this section aro having a first
’ rate time with the grass, and are about to suc
ceed in freeing their crops of tho troublesome
pest This is true, if it is assorted by a woman.
I believe Mr. “Justice” bolieves that “woman’s
rights” is a humbug, and I am afraid to be to
conspicuous—’fraid he won’t come to—come to
8 . Well, if he ain’t of a mind to come he
can stay in his sweet old glorious Taylor; for I
won’t go to see him.
On application at Foster’s drugstrore, Garden
Valley, any gentleman can be directed to my
reaidenoe. Sabah Steon'G.

A Stcnm Type-Sot Hug Machine.
From the Graphic of Jane 17lh, we copy the
following description of a steam type-setting
machine now on exhibition in London:
The steam type-composing machine, invented
and exhibited by Mr. Mackie, is in the ma
cbinery department. The aotnal arrangement
of tho types is made by a wonderful apparatus
of aeetnmgly complicated but of very beautiful
and rapid aotion. Around a circnlar horizontal
standard of iron are placed receptacles fnll of
the different types, so arranged that the letters
can bb taken by mechanical power from below
as eaeh is wanted. This duty is performed by
a portion of the machine, which revolves within
the outer rim on which the type boxes are, and
as tho .necessary types ore collected by it, they
are brought to a particular point and projected
in linos to be arranged in the forms for col
umns, pages, eto., by hand. The action of this
machine is ruled by a perforated thick paper in
a continuous strip, in the same way as a Jac
quard card rules a loom. The strip is about
two inches wide; the relative position of the
perforations in it determines the composition,
and the production of this punctured slip from
the author's copy is a preliminary necessity.
The small separate apparatus for performing
this operation is shown in the illustration. It
can be worked easily and efficiently away from
the machine; more than one strip can be pro
duced by one operation, but each will rule a
machine and for any aizo of type, so that differ
ent sizeR of a book could be witheqnal ease pre
pared ; the strip is easy of transmission, and
oan be preserved with convenience. An ordi
nary compositor can set np about 2.000 type
per hour; this machine oan place 12,000, and
as many as 20,000 have been got from it.

Dear Sirs : Late this fall I purchased from you one of your Findlay & Craig Eclipse Patent Screw
Cotthn Presses, and, after a full and fair trial, do not hesitate to pronounce it the most rapid, of lid-t

B. FINDLAY’S SONS:
Gentlemen : I bought one of your Eclipse Screw Cotton Presses early the present season, and ti”
pressed nearly the whole of my cotton crop with it, and bo far it has given entire satisfaction. I am*"
pleased with it and think it a good Press, and an improvement upon any and all other Presses now in n*-
JOHN J. RILE}-
Wooten, Ga., January 4,1871.
Messrs. R. FINDLAY’S SONS:
Dear Sirs : In reply to yours of yesterday, I have to say that the Eclipse Cotton Screw, purchased i
you, has performed admirably; I like it better than any screw I have ever used.
Yours, very truly, G. M. STOKES.
Since last fall, and before accepting Patent, we added improvements and labor-saving convenience^
rendering it PERFECT in every particular. This screw, or pin, has a pitch, or fall, of 6& inches; ihf
is, at every turn of the screw, follower block descends (or ascends, as the case may be)6K inches-
The device of the tube or nut in which the screw works, is such as to materially reduce the friction -
great in the common screw; thereby rendering it an easy task for three hands to pack a bale of cotbp
in HALF THE TIME of ANY OTHER Iron Screw Press by horse-power. [See J. L. Gilbert’s certu-
cate). When desirable, an ordinary male can be substituted for three men without change of 6*1°}“
(ScrewPresses also arranged for water and steam power). We claim for the “ECLIPSE” SIMPLICIT'-
STRENGTH, DURABILITY, RAPIDITY. LIGHT DRAUGHT, and STANDING ROOM at top of to-
eto., etc.; in short, toe pronounce it the BEST Screw Press IN THE WORLD, and respectfully invite *
public test wit aDy and all other Screw Presses. To purchasers, we GUARANTEE SATISFACTION «
REFUND PRICE MONEY. Orders daily received from different States attest its popularity even in in
fancy. To parties who may not desire such rapidity in packing, we can supply them with the COMMON
WROUGHT IRON 8CREW of fine (slow) pitch, and warrant them eqnal to any other Wrought Sen*
manufactured. Bnt above all others we recommend the strong, rapid, light draught “ECLIPSE.”
