Hill's nsarest nt-igit* bur? wera the Strong1*'—four brothers of con-eidctsbls wsstih, mors ambition, and if we may burrow tire phrase of the country, ' famous fighters.’ Not Withstanding iheirchar-»cti*r wksso dissimilar from lltsl of the pa-, C'fic ‘bear hunter,’ a e3o« and cortiiat inti-ntacj grew op between them ; and Hill* in an uiigusrded moment, roada the eldest brother, (taorge, a c.mlJdant «t to the secrets of hi* previous history. It happened that this | same George cnncatvcd a violent desire fo/ political di*t.nctum, tnd requested Hill to resign his sest in (Ire Senate iit his Illiberal| friend's favor. Hill refusod and the Sironga coaspirod for a larribfe is verge. Writinghe leaped ot) tire youth, and hngsn s most ferocious bat'ery. In vain lluwitrcl M.ten»stcd tovscape, crying nut in tone? of beseeching horror, For God1* sake, ccsie Hill don’t you know me 1—Your friend More ! Re* member Mary I HlU'a anger only increased,till finally, he threw hi* Hand to his bait, andclutched a pistol. ’And then Howard's blood also boiled, and bo resolved to light for hi? life. Ho was of as powerful a frame a? the other. The only person in all Arkansso to 1 bo compared with the desperado in physical strength.Howard grasped the barrel of tire pinto! as , Hill cocked it, and the pistol expiodsa in their ' hands without injury. Once more thvy clenched, anti the #wh dreadful si niggle ensued ever witnessed in the west. The ad- ■ vantage shifted from «n« side to the other for ' tile apace of fiv# minute*, till both werebathed in streams of their own bloc I. Kven the by .slenders, looking on through the tt in* 1 d«we of ihe long cotm-home, were struck with wonder end aw*. At length, while writhing and twisting like two rtgiiig serpents, ino handle of 1 fill's huge bowie-knife, unthought of previously, protruded from beneath his hunting.shirt. Both saw it at the •am* time, and both attempted to grasp it, Howard succeeded ; quick as hghmmg ha drew lbs keen hlsdu from the scabbard, and sheathed it up to tho hllr In the bosom of hie friend and Mary’s father. The dream ia fulfilled,” exclaimed Utilor dustera, whan tire llour is taken out an sent to the 'cooler,' or first bolt*, tn 00 uni -1 fermiy mixed iti regular ptop«nio*n» wun iln*j super fine dour, and ilio remained ni-varou'l for let'd*. ITut* odi'aulttgc obtained by this m,loof.gritidiiig is as follows: Firs’, it ensblc? ihe tltu nullor to grind high, ur«oarsj,ai tire* drst grmlt;ling,«udtluis avoid injury to 'ho ‘stun'liy’ portion of the wheat, crisureo free, good h *lt-1 mg, winch is not always the case whon at*, tempting t« grind tin* starch and ‘glulm1 cjb-Uinifig fiilt;* grain lu tbo snmo convistenry by one iiriicc-s, os tho starch, winch pnlvuriZi*- 1 e*«y, i» npt to be too Ihsu and sticlt tiithej hr.Its, ur elao the 'fnnua'.t* U, conrso and goes to middlings, or ajireruv to the bran nil 1 j is lost, _ ^ jSecond. It enables til» milfer ti grin! wet: or damp wlreut better than by any oilier ino.le, as tire first grinding, which is high cod fro?,; airing ami bathing, lire moisture is principally ev*porat*d, ami the ‘offal1 i*4 pailislly kiln-dried, whew, by submitting n to tlia quick grinding, or scouring process, tiia flour is almost entirely ‘whipcit out’ and put into tiiej superfine barrel. _ iThird. It catches all tire broken ?»niciuw[ ofgram that escapes the first grinding, by slopping, and starling, or from other causes, and equalises tire grinding, when any vnna-; tinns occur in tire first mill* or grinding, iFourthly, it adds to lire superfine flour that'which woo formerly ‘fine,’and thuv save? tire: Ions on sale* in market. IFifthly. Jt saves grinding middlings, cs the whole tniddlir.g process itdunoby one con tin uuus operation, with a great saving of labor as well as tune.Sixthly, It enables the miller to make hi* barrel of superfine flour from four bushels of. wheat that will wslgh 60 pounds to the bushel,' and the flour is much belter, n* it euntaios ; raori* of the 'farina' of tho wheat, or glutinous matter, and will yield more good bread from a given quantity of flour. Flour ground on tin* process is now selling in Butlnlo as superior brmnc]. Tho double grinding 0 vapor -• leu more of the mti«urp,aml has a tendency tn preserve the flour longer from souring.These are the principal and distinguishingi characteristics of my ‘imp ten ament,' and iff tin*? permitted, I would write you mare spec-itte and In detail. The aggregate marie byj it will be somewhere from IS to 3* pound* ol; wheat on each barrel of flour. It is simple, nod durable, and all the rconimres itcombines, j and principles it involve? are well timrerstood, by all common sense minds, and must be appreciated.Hia.t of Ctviuavfms-— Mr, Scofield of Now London, In hi* Idler from CRlilorntu, write? that he was absent from camp tout day s. and though he intended to go where no one had ever been before, yet nil along ho loundmark* of civilization, bitch os pieces of playing-cards and brandy bottles.Whan you »«e s small tmut, think bow much health U wafefff/.
