A peanut-picker was among tbe new la
borsaving mabines exhibited at .the Vir
ginia State Fair. Hitherto tbe nuts have
been picked off tbe vioes by band; four
bushels a day was tbe fair average of a
band. A farmer who raised one thousand
bushels required ten bands for nearly two
months to save tbe crop, at tbe cost of fif
teen cents a bushel. Tbe crop raised on
the south side of the James River, between
Petersburg and Norfolk, is estimated at one
million bushels a year. To save this crop
would require the labor of six thousand
bands for two months, at a cost of $200,000.

A Princely Equipage.
Ibm the BoiSm Travekr
The elegant equipage of Mrs. James Flak
Jr., Cheater square, is attracting much at
tention from the lovers of good style at the
South End and the Highlands. It Includes
a costly glass front carriage, four splendid
black horses, trappings aud harness valued
at several thousand dollars, and the neces
sary attendants. It la a part of the private
establishment of the lady referred to above,
and probably cannot bo excelled by any
equipage In the country. The leading har
ness, In particular, Is a splendid pieco of
workmanship. By the phrase leading har
ness, we would explain lor flie benefit of
sucii of our readers as are not Informed, is
meant the harness ou the two leading hones
of a team of four, and the lines or reins that
connect them with the driver. The harness
Is finished in superb style, with all the
metal trimmings heavily plated with gold,
with gold frontlets, and tbo monogram of
tbe owner frequently repeated. The steel
trace chains are the only pieces of metal
that is plated with silver. Tbe leading lines
are of white English leather rolled and the
band rems are enclosed in white enamelled
leather. The workmanship cannot be sur
passed for excellence.
Tiunksuivixu Day. To-morrow is tbo
day set apart by tbe President of tbe Uni
ted States, and by tbe Governors of the res
pective States as a day of general thanks
giving for tbe blessings of the year. Tbe
harvests are bountiful, tbe "granerin are
full, and tbe business pmsuits of tbe year
have been successful. We havo reason to
give thanks to as All-wise Creator for His
bountiful sunshine, and a Christian land
like ours is ever gratelul to a kind Provi
dence for lis wealth and prospects. Those
who gather around tho " feasts of feasts" on
tbe raor.ow.should not forget to whom they
are indebted for the board of plenty before
them, as tbe blessings of a success il gov
ernment, a piosperous year and a bright
future, are attribiituble alone to 111 in
who doetli all things well.'' Let us give
tbanks, let us rejoice, let in bo glad that
oureflurti have been crowned with success,
and that the year closes with blessings in
numerable. The harbingers of a coming
spring will soon be upon us,and in the mean
time pleasures of tho winter months will not
be loigo.ton, but improvud. For all these
blessings wu are indebted to the Ruler or
the Uuiverse, and as is the common custom
of tbe nation lo-morrowwe glvetbanks for
these blessings.
It is a sacred day, one whicb should be ob
served in a becoming manner, but in our
rejoicings let us not forget tbe poor. Re
member tbat while we enjoy all thtt festivi
ties of tbe Benson tbere are those in our
midst who ap destitute of these priveleges,
but still a glimmer of hope arises in tbeir
hearts tbat at some time ibey too may en
joy the blowings we celebrate on Thanks

An interesting case has jut bum decided
by tbe Supreme Court of Ohio. A-htisbund
died and willed ail his property to his wile
so long as she remained his widow. In case
of ber contracting marriage, the property
was to revert to tbe children. She did mar
ry, and brought suit to recover her dowry.
Tbe Court decided that her acceptance ol
tbe conditions imposed by the will was a
bar to any further claims. She therefore
cannot live With ber second buslisnd and
draw her support from ber first. Widow,
will take note, and contest such wills in
Benson, if I boy are not quite sure that tbeir
love undying and a life of widdowhood is
their choice.
Tbe billlardist Carme, who Is now in
New Orleans, places twelve balls in line,
and nearly touching each other, across one
end of tbe table, and striking tbem ono by
one in rapid, succession, sends tbem flying
around tbo table, each ball going .round
twice, so tbat neatly all of tbem are in mo
tion at tbe same time, running hither and
thither over tbe table in different direction8
crossing and recrossing eacb other so swift
ly as to bewilder the eye, and yet not on0
touches the other, but each ball swinging
round in its own particular orbit like tbe
stars, until at last all of tbem nestle loving
ly together in one corner of tbe tab'e so
tbat hat may cover them all. Another
shot of bis is to place eight balls In a simi
lar position to tbat described above, and
make them move between twelve bottles on
the table without touching cither tbe bot
tles or each other. '

From tht A'ew Oaleani Tribune
A few days since, a well dressed and
dripper little person was seen to manifest a
very inquisitive Interest in the manufactory
of our enterprising young citizen Henry
Bonnabel, Esq. He inspected internally
with great care, and apparently made notes
with a pencil. Was bo a purchaser or a
special artist detailed to present to tbo
public a view of the manufactory of tbe bt
sulpbate of 11 met Very soon this observant
visitor met tbe active proprietor, who was
engaged with some other gentlemen in mak
ing some, change in , his business arrange
ments. With all tbe dignity of new clothes,
tbe visitor presented his card, the Hon. C.
Sneakem, detective extraordinary in tho
teirice of Ike internal revenue.
"Allow me to inquiie," asked be of Mr.
Bonuabel, "are these wbisky barrels?''
"They are sir."
'Will you allow me to see yourlreceipt
for tbe manufactory of this wbisky.
"I never mad a g.iljon."
"Then this is not a distillery?" observed
tbe detective, with a slight shade of disap
pointment. "No sir. It Is a manufactory of sulphate
oflime." t .
"Allow mo to inquire sir, what is sul
phate of lime?'' Asked the detective.
"It is a chemical preparation ot lime,
used by sugar planteis to promote tbe gran
ulation and purity of sugar.
Tbe detective was not to be thus thrown
off the track ot a neb forfeiture. This bi
sulpbato was gammon. It could not tool a
New Yorker. '
"Will you,'' persisted be, "permit me to
have one of tbesi barrels opened?"
"Here Oweu I" sung out Mr. ISonunbel,
"knock tbe bnug out of a barrel. This gen
tleman says we are m.iuufuclur tig whisky
without paying license."
Owen was indignant that a "thale of a g lin
ger" should huvo crossed over i urn Ireland
to prosecute houest people; so he struck a
banal sue i a vehement thump that the
bung bounced out, and the detective thrust
his official U'jse iuto tho opening. Tbe ef
lect of the pent-up sulphuric vapor on tbe
proboicus, lungs, and eyes of the i.uier
gentleman fiom New York wusulike sudden
and conclusive Ho tumbled over like a
bedbug exposed to corrosive sublime. Il
was only with tbo aid ot Oweu aud some
oilier disiutero-led spectators tb.it hu was
luken to bis room, and it is said to l.uve
been some days before be could leave b:s
bed and resume bis "wild bunt' alter wbis

That Incitement.
Yesterday our reporter saw a crowd of
men and boys iu front of Wachter Fe. let's
store opposite tlio Bank building. . Soon all
s'.urted on a rush into the store, thinking
a flreor a Gght might be tbe cause of uil
this great commotion. Our reporter breath-les-ly
butted iu also, and found the true
cause to be a raid by the people upon the
plendid stock of Groceries, wnicb W. & F.
are almost giving away. They are deter
mined to sell out their Block to make room
for more that is continually rushing
iu by every train.
So now is jour opportunity to get your
Groceries cheap. novl5 St
