Telegraph & Messenger. SUNDAY MORNING, JULY 30, 1871. Whatoocrer an Old Haiti Soweih That Khali She also Reap. Wo copy the following singular story from the Clinton, Iowa, Herald : Sioux City, last winter, had an Old Maids’ Socioty, nnd they had a dinner, and speeches, and a general vowing all around that they would load a single life, and oschow the naughty men forever. But, it is said, there is genet ally a black sheep in the flock, and so it seemed there was ono in this. 'While vowing vengeance on the male sex, these decaying sisters were dumb founded by one of their number, Miss Pantbea L. Kennedy, who arose and most charmingly flung into their midst the following bit of trea son to celibacy: “Sisters in waiting—all for husbands—we have met, bocanso wo can’t help ourselves, to celebrato this as a day of thanksgiving, as ap pointed by our Chief Magistrate. But tell me; is it to ns roallyaday of thanksgiving? No, sisters; rather should we call it a day of mourn ing—nnd for what? For husbands! Yes, sis ters, for husbands, which we feel we need, (at least I do), and also mnch desire. Talk to mo about women’s rights! Wo have all the rights wo desire, if the men would only propose. ‘Why don’t the men prooose, mamma, why don’t the mon propose?’ f don't know how you feel abont it, trat I do know, if tbo right man comes along and makes me an offer, I won’t be at yonr next old maid’s dinner. No, sisters, yon may talk as yon will abont woman’s independence; it is allfoliy; we are always dependent, and upon man. Yon may say what yon like as to onr being man's superior, or man’s help-meet, or nature's noblest work—all of which man will grant ns. Bnt what pleasnro or happiness can we have in onr weary pilgrimage through life without a man’s protecting band and care over ns? None, sisters, none; and let others do as they will; for me, I am determined to have one. And I will hero volunteer apiece of gratuitous advice, and that is, for oach of you to go and do likewiso. What other relation in life so honor able as a man’s companion, the wifo of a loving, kind, affectionate husband ? None; and in or der to become such let ns cultivate and prac tice all those virtues which so much adorn onr station, and that man so mnch admires ; and my word for it, we will find hundreds worthy of ns. Wo know that men love us; know that in our smilo exists the poet’s reward ; and we also know that for us patriots have diod. Man is novor so happy as when in onr company or rendering us favor, and why is it that each of ns can’t have ono ? Let ns seo to it while it is called to-day, so that when another thanksgiving day rolls around tboro will not bo an old maid in Sioux City.” Behold her reward 1 makmed. InvnjE—Kennedy.—At the residence of Hon. A. W. Hubbard, Sioux City, Tuesday evening, June 27th, by Rev. E. H. Avery, Mr. Wm. D. i and Miss f } " ■ * Irvine i i Fanthea Lu Kennedy. BEAD THIS ! The Proper Distinction or Woman. A writer in Lippincolt’s Magazine says: Is there any barrier against presumption, like tborongkbred courtesy? “Do what you will, yon can never bo bo thorough a lady as I am,” was tbo impro6sion made upon mo by tho sweet humility, the plain dress, the almost forlorn surroundings of Mrs. Custis, the former mistress of Arlington. It was morowhat she did not do, the nbsonco of effort, coupled with tho dosiro to mako you happy, tho thorough-breeding, the Rolf-abnegation, the graceful dignity, that made this lady a duchess in her faded realm. Such brooding and ouch manners as hors are not within the reach of every one—they are partly natural gifts—but tho virtues which lead to them are to bo cultivated by everybody with Bomo hope of snccoss. Miss Sedgwick was one of theso wonderfully well-bred women. No woman in America was more famous than she in her prime, nnd sho had much of tho grace, withlitUoof the formality, of those “old-school” manners in which she must have been trained. Flattery never turned her head: she was humble and modest as a village girl, graceful and court ly ns Madame de Sevigue. Her manner of in troducing two persons has never been surpassed, sho made them both feel honored and distin guished. Her attitude of listening was in itself a compliment, and to the very last she main tained a charm beyond beauty, tho charm of perfeot manners. Dat is Goot. As a goctloman from New York was taking a glass of wine at the St. Lonis, corner of Free man and Hopkins street, Cincinnati, about three wooks ago, he observed at another table seated with other Germans, a man who seemed un easy and anxions, ns if there might have been a Franco-Prussian disagreement between his beer and himself. Presently in ran a little girl, her faco radiant with smiles, exclaiming: “Oh, father, we have a little poy at home ! ” ” Dat is goot,” said the Dutchman as tho nnxietv disaoneare/l fc«- —«»uuice, *‘1111 np der glasses. Not many minutes elapsed before in rushed the little girl again with the announcement: “Oh, father, wo have two little poys at hrme! ” The Dutchman looked a good deal astonished, nnd not at nil gratified at his little family re dundancy, but rising at leDgth to the magnitude of tho occasion, he said: “ Veil, den, dat is also goot. Fill np der glasses.” In a few minutes again appeared the radiant messenger with the astounding proclamation; “ Oh, fntbor, wo have got three little poys at home!" This was too much even for Teutonic impas- sability. There was no fnrther call for glasses. “ Veil, den,” says ho, “I goes np ders, and I stopt der whole tam pisiness.” B Eternal and Spuhoeon.—A London corres- podent of The Chicago Advance makos this comparison between Beecher and Spurgeon: Beecher takes a text, and by a a score of apt nnd masterly illustrative metaphors throws forth its fullness. Spurgeon arrives at tho same end by dint of powerfnl consecutive, logic, twining closely abont and upon the theme until its meaniDg starts out sharply before the mind. Beeohor preaches nbout ‘wo.” Spurgeon ap peals to ‘tlion.’ Tho one is elegant and graoe- ful; the other is simple nnd strong. Equally tho oue with the other, glorious pillars in the Temple of Christ’s Church. As nu orator or a writer, Beecher is superior; as a preacher of tho the Word, I like Spurgeon.” Mb. Dickens, it seems, met President John son, when ho visited America the last time, and afterward wrote of him: “I was very much surprised by the President’s face and manner. It is, in its way, one of the most remarkable faces I have over seen. Not imaginative, bnt very powerfnl in its firmness (or perhaps obsti nacy), strength of will, and steadin*ss of pur pose. There is a reticence in it, too, curiously nt. variance with that first unfortunate speech of his. A man not to be turned or trifled -jtb, A man (I should say) who must be killed to Se got out ot the way." His manners are perfeoti, composed. We looked at ono another pretty hard. There was an air of chronic anxiety upon him. But not a crease or a ruffle in his dress, and his papers were as composed as him self.” Queen Victoria, an English paper says, is troubled with visions of the poorhouse. It is said that the table of the Queen’s servants is a- bout tho worst served of any in the country. A despatch says that the future Emperor and Em press of Germany (tho latter Victoria’s daughter) conld not be entertained by their mother at any of her palaces dnring their reoent visit, owing probably to the miserly apprehension of the royal lady. Fisn to Remain.—It is stated that the Presi dent has written a letter earnestly requesting Secretary Fish to abandon his intention of re tiring from the Cabinet, and it is understood that the latter has decided to oomply with that request, and remain, at least, for the present. As has been frequently stated, the proposed re tirement of Gov. Fish was based entirely on personal and not political nor official reasons. The latest fashionable novelty at Iiong Branch ia Allegretti’s ice cream bricks, which are put up in boxes and carried in the pocket. Ladies can be seen on the road in their carriages eat ing ice cream with a small silver-plated spoon which is given to the purchasers. Several hotel proprietors have it served to the lady guests in the parlors of the hotels daring the warm even ings. In Vicksburg hundreds of colored people have been attracted to the shanty of an old negress who bolieves she can see angels in the air. Her visitors do not pretend to see tho celestial be ings, but they have the satisfaction of looking upon one who does, and this has proved an at traction sufficient to draw ignorant creatures from all directions, and in some cases from great distances.

THE HOORE COTTON ALSO, A GENUINE PATTERN OF THE GRISWOLD OIK FORMERLY AT DOUBLE WELLS. T HE undersigned, having resumed the manufacture of the above Gin, propose to make it *h»t t before the war—The favorite of the South. Our work stands upon its merits, and we thfaki!? 1 sufficient guarantee. We have secured the services of some of the best mechanical talent in tbTw* ern shops, in addition to some of the best workmen from the shop of the late Samuel Griswold, lb ' Gardner, who served eight years’apprenticeship under E. Carver & Co., at East Bridgewater \r and who was employed as Superintendent of tbo Double Wells Shop, from the commencement rftk' manufacture of the Moore Cotton Gin, until its suspension, is again at his post, and will give eJl a his personal inspection before it leaves the shop. “ In calling the attention of planters to our Cotton Gins, wo dosiro that they should notice the pi- ments that we offer, which are substantially as follows: “prove. A PORTABLE ROLL BOX, For obtaining any inctinatien of the Gin Bib or Grate, is used; the object of which is to improve in ti quantity ginned, or lessen tho quantity and improve the quality of lint. Also, to gin damp or wet to alter the picking or separating tho lint from the seed—either to take more lint off, or less lint the seed, as circumstances requiro. We use both the common Koll Box and a Swinging Front tK latter is arranged to let out all the seeds and hulls in a moment, and is very easily managed. 108 THE GIN BRUSH We make, cannot be excelled by any hair brush used. The bristles aro all drawn in by a cord and ft, timber is all selected from the best lumber, well seasoned; and every Brush iB made perfectly fire aj rat proof. CYLINDER AND BRUSH BOXES Are both oscillating and plain. Can furnish either, as may be ordered. We line them with the l^t babbit metal. GIN SAWS. Wo make all the Saws that we use from tho best English Cast Steel, and of any size that may be is. sired. We employ, to superintend and manufacture our Saws, one of the best saw-makers in the South and our machinery for the manufacture of Gin Saws cannot be excelled. COTTON SEED CRUSHING NULL. We are the only successful manufacturers of this important and useful invention—the Cotton Gin, with the Cotton Seed Crushing Mill attached. It will hardly be necessary here to allude to theimmew saving and economical UBe of crushed cotton seed, as a manure. We received a gold medal as a premi. um, from the Fair of the Cotton Planters’ Convention, held in Macon, Ga., 1860, for the bestOottoo Seed Crushers attached to the Gin Stand, to crush the seed as fast as it escapes from the KolL Tiers fer to some of tho many certificates that wo have on the subject. TRIAL OF TJHE GINS. Wo koop constantly on hand seed cotton, and every Gin is tried before it loaves the shop—old or m ones. REPAIRING OF OLD GINS. We have a complete assortment of the very best Cotton Gin Machinery in the country, and mike re pairing of old Gins a specialty. Planters will do well to send in their old Gins, and have them made u good as new, at a much less cost than a new Gin can be bought for. Send on your orders acd old to early. We are also authorized by Messrs. Findlay’s Sons to receive orders for Findlay A Craig’s Screw Cota Press, and Craig’s Patent Portable Horse Power, and Castings generally.
