New York Sun.
A cobbler takes ball a day to sole and
heel a pair of shoes. In Crow Hill peni
tentiary a few hundreds of men and wo
men start with the raw material, and tarn
oat 3,000 pairs of shoes in ten hours, or
more than six pairs of shoes a minute.
The men and women have little to do with
it. Machines do the work, and need only
to bo fed, started and stopped; all the fine
and ingenious work of building a beautiful
shoe they do, one part at a time and one
machine to each part. For instance, the
first machine cuts the soles out of the
leather. It ia nothing bat a punch fitted
with a knife the shape of a shoe sole. Dif
ferent sized knives cat out anything, from
a baby's to a plantation darky's site. Cat
ting oat the soles leaves the sheets of
leather in tatters. The biggest tatters are
used for heels; the smallest make fuel.
Leather scraps make as good a furnace fire
ns coal does. The next machine splits a
thin slice of the upper surface of the sole a
little way from the edge all around so that
it looks as if a thin sheet had been pasted
on to the sole, leaving the edges unpasted.
Under this loose edge a machine presses a
little cutter or channel in which the nail,
ingorsewingis done, and afterward hid
den by pasting t he loose edge over it when
the upper is attached.
At the same moment other convicts are
t oi sheets of dressed calf
attems on the skins and
ed sizes. This is done by
hand, bat the linings are sewed to the up-
1 its and the button holes are pat through
both leather and lining by machinery. Tin
buttonholes are stitched by automatic ma
chines, consisting of a sewing machine bar-
ing under the needle a little plate which
turns exactly in accordance with the out-
linetof the buttonhole, and stops when the
button hole ia finished. One man feeds
several machines, starts them, and does
not toneb them while they are at work.
After this the soles and upper* come into
the hands of one set of convicts, the tasters
anil tackara on, wno pat the two together
with a very few .mail tacks. These people
nil work like lightning, but are slow beside
the machinery.
The soles and apper* are firmly joined in
several ways. One machine puts in brass
■craws and bites them off exactly at the
right distance between the upper and the
under surfaee of the leather; another drives
In an iron screw with the same nicety;
other sews the parts together with wax
thread, the thread passing through a heat
ed metal horn, which keeps it soil and
warm; vet another imitate* hand sowini
with yellow thread, leaving on extended
•ole, which it afterward bevelled to look
pretty. The merit of tb a machine is that
thu shoes It sew* are pliable and easy to
tb-t foot, and bring a good price. This
debs its work in eleven second*.

The State Convict*.
Athens Banuer-Watehman.
Such a war is being waged against the
convict system of Georgia, that we now
convict system of Georgia, tnat we now
begin to think a successful effort will be
made by the next Legislature to abolixh it.
While we admit that the practice of leas
ing out the State's prisoners to private
parties, and thus putting them in compe
tition with free labor, has its objections,
yet we do not advocate keeping them in
confinement at a heavy expense to the
Ihonest tax-payers of the state. The convict
lessees pay a ridiculously low price for this
labor, and it lias proved n gold mine to
every one connected therewith. The
iproper disposition, we think, for the State
to make o( her criminals, is to let their
labor he as equally divided as possible,
among the peopieof Georgia, and not given
to a ring for the use of a few favored indi
viduals. Our proposition is this: for the]
legislature to take charge of tliess con
victs. and distribute them throughout the
State, to be used in building railroads
and other great public improvements,
let each section of Georgia have its own
convicts, to lie used as the public interests
require. The new constitution forbids
State aid to railroads, but by voting die
labor of convicts no violation of law will
be made. By this means several hundred
miles of new railways can be graded annu-
ally, at but little expense to die people,
anil at the same time the State will re
tain exclusive control of her convicts. So
instead of a few men reaping wealth
at the expense of crime, the tax
payers of Georgia, who must pay
the expense ot conviction, will re
ceive the benefit. We do not believe in
making the penitentiary a downy bed of
case, where thieves anil murderers and
other felons can retire for a season and b«
supported by the honest masses, but it
should be made a place of close confine
ment. hard work, and sucli punishment os
die dictates of humanity will tolerate. We
think the present convict lessees have fat-
toned on the swaat of Georgia's criminals
long enough, and now demand a more

of the Northern people, backing the ap
peals to them with the sentimental
speeches and resolutions of ex-Federal
soldiers who cun be drummed into the
movement. The projectors of the
scheme want to get their hands upon
a million dollars of Northern money
upon the plea that it is to be used for
the housing and keeping of disabled
Confederate soldiers who are in dis
tress and who have no pension to fall
tack upon. The scheme looks very
plausible and nice upon paper, but will
It bear investigation?
WHERE ABE THEY?
When did tliis'distresscd condition of
the disabled Confederate soldiers be
come so urgent and manifold ? Who
can produce one of the old veterans of
Lee and Jackson who is wailing to the
North to pour down its charity for his
relief? Why have they been left for
nineteen years the victims of disability,
disease, poverty and death ? And why
docs it now Income so pressing and
patriotic a work to provido sumptuous
ly for the remnant of maimed and help
less soidiers of tho “Lost Cause” who
are waiting patiently for their final
discharge from earthly troubles?
THEY WILL SOOX BE GONE !
In a very few more years, and the
battle-scared and limbless veterans will
be but a handful. They are nearly all
of them in tho care of friends and rela
tives; many of them are adequately
provided for; the fewest possible
number are ever found in destitution.
They are not asking the alms of even
their own people, whom they defended
so valiantly; much less arc they asking
the crumbs from the tables of the aF
fluent North.
WILL THEY HAVE IT?
The question may well bo asked.
Here in Georgia the law of the State
nts to the maimed Confederate sol-
most dangerous months for sailors. It
is then that icebergs and fogs, mere ter
rible than hurricanes, are most preva
lent. The North Atlantic pilot chart
ot that month issued Bhows a great
field of icebergs soutiiwest from New
foundland, northeast of Now York,
and directly in the path of Liverpool-
bound vessels. This field was larger
and contained more bergs and
floes than over before recorded. Another
marked feature of the chart is the loca
tion of a number of wrecks, grouped at
two different sections of the Atlantic.
The more important gronp is off the
mouth of Chesapeake hay. The other,
strangely enough, is north of the Azores
and midway between New York and
Eiverpool. There were no wrecks
in the ice fields. The first
group of wrecks lies in a heavy
storm track conspicuously marked
with water spouts. The present value
of this chart is noted in the arrows
showing the positions of the winds and
icebergs for April, and the direction of
tho former indifferent latitudes. Charts
of other sections of the sea, wherever
American commerce goes, are likewise
issued monthly.
Notices issued to mariners announce
from time to time the changes in coasts,
shoals, islands, buoys, bells and lights,
the removal of obstructions, etc. Tho

Uncle Jonathan Noreross wiped Snake Na

survey, at a cost of $4,000, was made several
years ago by an enterprising Atiantian,
who, since then, has kept the facts secure

nature of tho stroke, damage to life and
