BYRD CHEAP LUMBER. t u* wnr Ivuad U Ml’. pUu., an, Awriraf — • —- - lire, tarttf it mill rorgLbt They waste money on tho Eng- ilsli navy, too, it appears. There was H. M. S. Thunderer, a mag nificent warship that has cost about $2 509.000, including repairs, and yet has done only about two years' service -ince she was launched in 1812. On her t-ial trip she burst n boiler and killed 40 or 50 of the crew, and live years ago sbe met with a second accident, bursting a 38 ton gun and killing and wound ing several. These disasters have stamped the Thunderer as an “un lucky skip.’’ and with navigators this means enough to keep tbe powerful vessel idly rusting, though she has no actual fault. She lies in Malta harbor disman tled, and money is constantly go ing into new vessels. William F.’whitCof Rookhill, S. C., was in an unenviable predic ament when he -was compelled to insoitthc following advertisement In the Herald of that place: “All persons nre hereby requested to take up Thomas Black, alias‘Star,’ a black, chunky negro, who bos persuaded my daughter, Anna Young White, to run otf with him. I nm a poor white man, and hope nil well disposed persons will help me to recover my daughter and punish the villain.’’ Thirty years ugo anybody who ran oil with a South Carolina black would have been Jailed for slave stealing. Swallows Firing Southward. Chesteu, Conn., September 28 For the last two weeks thousands of noisy bank swallows have con gregated on the houses on the summit i.f Hill street, and In such vast numbers as to become a ser ious nuisance. Where they came from is not known, but it is sup posed from tho clay banks of the Connecticut river below Hartford. Yesterday, at noon,they bunched together in a black mass over the village, and after whirling abont for several minutes, they darted away to the south, much to the re lief ol everyone. Good Farming. II iwklnsvtllo News. V Mr. U, I’. Taylor, who is super intending one of Mr. II. B. Marr's plantations in this county, has just gatii red 22 bushels of corn per aero from u 25 acre field and has already brought to market thirty hales of cott:.n from a flvc- mule farm. Ho expects to make ten bales of cotton to the plow. Tripp Taylor is a thorough going young man and is destined to be come one of our most suoecsslul farmers. The Mechanical rattan I’ieker. Tho Charleston News and Cour ier announces apparently by au thority, that tho public will bare to curb itaiinpalicuco in regard to tbe Mason Cotton Harvester, as it is not intended by the company owning the invention to place any of tho machines on tbe market du ring tbe present season. A half dozen machines have been con structed of different sizes and patterns, and tests and improve ments are being constantly made. It appears that the tests bIiow that tho machines nre yet far from perfect, and the wisdom of the compauy in not attempting to put any of them on tbe market this year is, consequently fully vindi cated. It is claimed that many imperfections in construction have been corrected, and that the pick ing apparatus is now working so satisfactory that 50 per cent, of tho open cotton is gathered with out injury to the plant or green bolls in passing once over the row, and by passing twice over the row seven-eights ot the open cotton is harvested. Mr. Mason now proposes to con struct double machines, so that all the cotton will be gathered liy once going over the row. He claims that tho picking machinery scarcely necdsany further improve ment. Tbe trouble be encounters is tho apparently minor one ofdia- posing of tbe cotton after it is picked, as the mochine persists in throwing a good portion of it upon the ground. In accordance with a suggestion ol Col. Morchead, President of tbe National Planters’ Association, a test will be made at some point in 8,oulh Carolina at an early day, before a committee of tho associa tion and other prominent geutlc- men. Tbo machine will probably not be on exhibition at the New Or leans Exposition. It Is announced that if tbe test proves satisfactory a construction company will bo organized and preparations made to have tho machine ready to as sist in harvesting next year’s cot ton erop. It is asserted that every one who has inspected tbo machino lias been convinced ol its ultimate Buccess. It la doubtful, however, even if it should lie experimentally successful, whether it will be soon so perfected and simpliliud as to stand tho lest of every-day work in tlir cotton Held.
