1 A Rush of Buyers.
Judging from the crowds which have
been flocking to Messrs Sol iBear & Bros'
store during the week we should siy that
those gentlemen have found their holiday
season I any thing but a dull one. They
and their corps of gentleraauly cierks
have had their bands full. And there
is to wonder about this, either, when
we consider the immense stcck and the
great 1 variety of goods they offer as Well
as the low prices at which they are sold
The people seam to have found
facts and hence the rush, at this
ment, k

Cotton on the Sounds.
i ! . !
We have very frequently been told
that cotton could jnot be successfully cul-
tivated on the Sound3 in this vicinity,
and that the lands were only'! suited to
peanuts and other crops which are i not
exhaustive in their nature . Capt. A. A
Moseley.of Scott's Hill, in Pender county,
informs us, however, that he has made
an effort in raising cotton on his planta
tion, and that this year he secured 1,800
pounds of seed cotton from less than an
acre of ground, j This, by the usual mode
of calculation, would give a 600 pound
bale to the acre, which is better than if
usually done on the farms in noted cotton
localities. , I

The Ice Machine.
By invitation of Dr. J. E. jWinants,
t'ie inventor and patentee, we visited the
Cjtton Compress warehouse today to
witness the operation of his newly -in
vented machine for the manufacture of
ice. We regret that the pressure of busi
ness was such that it was impossible for
ua to remain and , witness the entire pro
cess, but we remained long enough to see
a part of the modus operandi and enough
to satisfy us that his plan may be suc
cessfully worked, and ice made by steam
power instead of by the natural process.
By starting the engine a current of cold
are was pumped through an iron pipe in
to the 'bo where the ice is made, and in
about two minutes the temperature, was
reduced from sixty to thirty degrees.
This reduction in temperature was made
with the top of the box entirely open. If
it had been hermetically closed the reduc
tion would have been, as a matter of
course, very much greater. The Doctor
told us that if we would wait an hour he
woijld let in the water and make the ice,
which we were very well satisfied he
could do without difficulty. To our
view the plan
and we hope
is made entirely feasible,
that the pa'ience, perse
verance and ingenuity of the inventsr may
meet with a substantial reward.
