THE necessity of providing a cheaper and more abundant supply of materials for the manufacture of paper, than is at present furnished, is a subject which is interesting to the paper-maker, the mer chant, the agriculturist, the scientific man, and also every consumer of paper. We copy the follow ing from The Gardeners' Chronicle : The wants of paper-makers can only be satisfied by the production of more raw material. That material can be as well provided in our own fields as by foreign impor tation, and we believe as abundantly. Whether, how ever, we can grow paper materials as cheaply as they may be imported is a question to be answered by no other means than by experiment. Country gentlemen, living near paper mills, are those by whom the experiment should be tried. It cannot cost much ; their gardeners are the men to conduct it ; and now is the time to set about it. The problem to solve is, whether it is more profitable to grow an acre of corn, of root crop, or of paper materials P Paper materials are vegetable fibre. All plants con sist largely of this substance, but in some it is more abundant than in others, or more separable, or finer, or of a better colour. Those plants w ill b e b es t suited for the purpose in question in which it is most abundant, most separable, finest, and whitest. We are surrounded by suitable plants, but they are not cultivated. Nettles and Mallows in particular are well known to possess the requisite qualities; so does the Spanish Broom, and probably the Common Broom; any of these thrive in poor soil, where better crops cannot be produced, The common Stinging Nettle is an example of what we mean. Its roots can be procured everywhere ; and as it is perennial it will not only keep itself sufficiently clean, but may be cut two or three times a year. The principal coA consists in collecting its roots for planting, rent, &c., of land, and the labour of cutting and preparing. Its bre is very fine and good ; scarcely inferior to hemp, and has been used in Germany in the manufacture of first ' , class paper.. Fishing lines and cordage of good quality are also said to have been prepared from it. Wherever anything can grow, there the nettle is at home; no bad seasons hurt it ; no neglect injures it ; and it is subject to neither blight nor mildew, nor the ravages of insects. A larger produce may, no doubt, be had from the Hemp-leaved Nettle (Miura cannabina). This plant does not sting ; its stems .grow 5-6 feet high, and it is perennial, like the laSt. But it can only be obtained sparingly in botanic gardens, and therefore is not imme diately available. Mallows are to be 'tad everywhere ; and from them a white fibre is procurable in abundance. We do not find that it has been employed in paper-making, but its fibre is known to have been used for cordage. The best spe cies, we imagine,Tor a trial would be one of the annual Mallows ; either the curled-leaved (2lfalva crispa) or the Zebra Mallow Of mauritiana), seed of both which is easily procurable of the great seed merchants. These are well known to gardeners, because of their being cultivated as ornamental plants ; they grow 6-8 feet high, and come quickly to hand. They might be drilled in rows eighteen inches apart, and six inches asunder in the rows. As to the common Broom, it is worth ascertaining whether it may not be cut profitably for its fibre. Its near relative, the Spanish Broom (Spartiunz junceum), is repo - 116d to yield a very good substance without much trouble. So much of the former is to be found among plantations in poor sandy districts, that there can he no difficulty in procuring enough -for a fair trial. It will only be necessary to cut it close in now, so as to force the bushes to produce plenty of young wood, which should, we imagine, be collected for the fibre, as soon as the woad shows the first signs of beginning to ripen. It is by no means improbable, indeed, that many other neglected plants may be turned to similar account, by enlightened experimentalists; for there is no doubt that -we are surrounded by wealth which we cannot recognise, and which never will be appreciated till "common things" are understood as well as 'useless rarities. In fact, there is now before us a sample of fibrous matter, produced in great abundance near Belmullet in Ireland, for which we have to thank Mr. Billington. He does riot say what the plant is from which it was obtained, but he states that it will grow very luxuriantly in cold bleak situations where other crops refuse to thrive, and it seems to us to be very much more easily convertible into paper than white wood of any kind. If, as we imagine, the object of the cultivator is to obtain the greatest „amount of money - out of land at the smallest possible expense, we venture to submit the above considerations to our country friends. For ourselves, we would as soon grow an acre of Thistles as an acre of Pota toes, if we could obtain as much profit ; and this, although, like all other speculations, it belongs at present to what Mr. Justice Manic happily calls the -" regions of indis tinctness," seems to us a subject extremely well worth careful investigation. A correspondent of the Bristol Mirror, in detailing "a peep into a straw paper mill," near Tovil, in Kent, gives the following particulars : All our readers are doubtless aware that straw is a hollow tube, and the ladies know that in bonnets at least it has a beautifnl glaze on the outside, but they are not perhaps aware that that glaze is in :reality an extremely minute film of glass, so that a straw is a bundle of small fibres glued together, and lining the inside of a glass tube, of which it is the object of the paper-maker to deprive it. To effect this, and leave the fibres of it as free as possible, the straw previously cleaned and.-cut in short lengths is boiled in a strong solution of soda ley, which dissolves both the glass: and the glutinous substance. We look for a moment into a vast cauldron, whence issues a smell of stale hay, and- a-cloud of hot steam, _and cannot say that we have seen the process of boiling, but, declining to put our head further in, follow our conductor to where another large boiling Nat is being emptied into a little waggon, to be carried to the bleaching pits, dose by. It looks not • unlike the spent tan from the tanpits, and is almost as dark, and we -are puzzled how that dirty-looking heap is ever to be made into strong sheets of white paper, when we are referred to a large tank at the end of the room, where some hundredweights of chloride of lime are dis ' solved, in some thousands of gallons of-water, and account at once for the smell pervading the -whole mill. The brown mess in the little waggon being uow wheeled on two rails, over one of the bleaching pits, is emptied into it, and a gutta percha syphon tube - being put into the bleach liquor the pit is filled up with it, and left for twenty-four hours, by which time the ;chlorine and the colour of the straw will have fought -se fiercely as to be worse than the celebrated Kilkenny cats, for not a vestige of either remains. We don't wait for that, however, but go down to the mill, properly so called, e., the place where the bleached and boiled straw is ground into a pulp. Here is an oval trough, a sanguinary -machine, full of knives, is revolving rapidly, while the -straw passing through it, and-round the trough, and . through it again and again, is rapidly reduced to a substance somewhat resembling curdled milk, and having an addition of smalt or ultramarine,' looks very like the sky-blue of our school days left till next morning. Here also the-tize, a com pound of soda and rosin, is added to it (without which it would be blotting paper). Let us leave it to its insatiable tormentor to go 'back to the room we first entered ; but here we fancy -we must fail to give much ',idea of the machine—suffice it to say, the pulp from tbe-mill, still looking like curdled sky-blue, being kept in-A-constant state of agitation,•,by agitators who, strange to-say, do not do mischief to the hands they work among, is run into a small trough,-with a slit at the 'bottom ' through which the pulp floss on to a kind of round :towel, made of wire gauge, where it parts with sonte , of its water, and which, .travelling over its rollers, .steadily carries it of a uniform thickness over a square trough,con nected with a pump, Which suck most of its water.thr4ugh the wire gauze, and with the help Of some hundredweights of air above presses itinto something like solidity. Now it wants all the sharpness of our eyes to follow its. move ' ments, as it first goes -under rollers, looking likelarge rolls of flannel, then along -travelling blankets, up to the ceiling and down to the-floor, and in and out, and wound end round, under one hot railer of copper, and over another, :And at last emerges from-the end a web of paper, some five -feet wide, and capable of going on from here to Edinburgh If required. It don't go to 'Etfinburgh, though at least not in its present state, but passing into the cutting machine :is-divided into three strips therein, and then cut off at sstated lengths, by a sort of horizontal guillotine, falling into the hands of three boys in the universal paper caps, to'be carried away presently into the pressing and sorting TOOlll9, where a number of women, after examining the sheets and rejecting the faulty ones, pack them in quires and reams for the market. It forms a paper somewhat harder and slightly, more brittle than the best rag papers, but admirably adapted for printing on, as from those very qualities the type indents it less than the more flexible and tougher rag paper, than which'it is moreover cheaper. INDIA:SIIBSTITUTES FOR RUSSIAN HEMP.-At the last meeting of the Society of Arts, Dr. Forbes Boyle read a paper on "Indian fibres fit for textile fabrics, or for rope and paper making." He stated that in the white-fibred plants, such as the bowstring hemp, the aloe, the pita-fibre, the pine apple, and, above all, the plaintain, we had bound less resources of material not only for paper making, but for cordage, which would rival Manilla hemp, or the Ameri can aloe which bridged over broad rivers. The .oakum of these plants might be converted into paper, and the fibres into fabrics of different qualities ; and; though they might not be fitted for making knots,.they would yet make ropes which were capable of bearing considerable strains. Among the malvaceous and leguminous plants, or those among which the brown hemp and " sunn " of India were found, with the jute among the linden tribe, we had a variety of cheap products, because the plants could be grown with ease and their fibres separated with facility. If we re quired fibres possessed of all the strength of Russian or of Polish hemp, we should find this property not only in the hemp of the Himalays, but in the various nettles which clothed the foot of these mountains, from Assam to the Sutlej. One of the latter—the rheea fibre—he felt assured would not only undersell every other fibre, but in point of. strength would take a position second to none of all the fibres at present imported. Some of this fibre had been made into a 5-inch rope and had been tried at Messrs. Huddart's rope manufactory, where it was found that each square inch made from the wild rheea bore in the first experiment 8441 b; in the second experiment 8941 b, and that from the rheea fibre, 9101 b ; while the average strength of rope made with thebest hemp, and after numerous experiments, from the year 1803 to 1808, was 8051 b per square inch. In December last some experiments mere made at the East India Company's military stores, with fibres in equal weights and of equal lengths. The weight that each fibre broke with was ascertained to be as follows :—St. Peters burg hemp, 160th; Jubbulpore hemp, 1901 b; Wuckoonar fibre, 1751 b ; mudar, or yercum fibre (common all over India), 1901 b ; China grass, 2501 b ; rheea fibre, 3201 b ; wild rheea, from Assam, 3431 b; and Kote Kangra hemp no breakage at 4001 b. This hemp was the cannabis satira of botanists, and was cultivated in every part of India on account of the intoxicating property of its leaves. Dr Boyle stated, in conclusion, that the Court of Directors had ordered 20 tons of the rheea fibres, as well as of the Himalayan hemps, to be sent here yearly for the purpose or having them tried. A vast "lumber of specimens of the different, fibres, and of the articles manufactured from them, have been left gt the Society of Ms for a few days for inspection. • BIRTHS, MARRIA.GES, and DEA2S BIRTHS.

On the 15th of February she was suddenly beset by icebergs, and before the cap tain could extricate the vessel she was struck on the port bow, and her timbers stove in. Through this aperture the water rushed, and the crew had barely time to get out the boats when the vessel went down. From the suddenness of the catastrophe, they were unable to save food or water, and for five days and four nights they were tossed in open boats without sustenance, two dying from exhaustion. On the 20th of February they were descried by a fishing vessel, and they were landed at St. John's, Newfoundland, where they received every attention that their deplorable situation required. THE SCREW-STEAMER BALTIC, which was launched from the building-yard of Mr. Alexander Denny, about ten days ago, has already received the greater portion of her machinery, and is rapidly being finished for sea. The entire operations are expected to be completed by the 30th of this month, when she will take her departure for Hull, between which port and Copenhagen she is intended to ply, in consort with the Humber, also a new ship, just about ready for launching. The Baltic's dimensions are as follows :—Length between perpendiculars, 180 feet • breadth of beam, 26 feet; depth, 15 feet ; burden,•6oo tons. Her engines, which are supplied by Messrs. Tulloch and Denny, are on the direct acting principle, and of 110-horse power.—Dutnbarton Herald. GAS. —An opinion is widely prevalent that gas is un fitted for the illumination of private dwellings, owing to the heat and noxious gasses it evolves : nothing can be more erroneous. The heat, it is true, is in proportion to the light given off; and if, as has been found to be the case, a four-inch pipe will supply burners sufficient to out vie the blaze of -2,000 mould candles, (each candle con suming 175 grains of tallow per - minute,) the quantity of caloric and of carbonic acid given off' will be found to be in each case pretty nearly identical. Argand, or shadow less gas-burner, if encircled by a pale blue glass, yields a perfectly homogeneous white light, as pure almost as that of day, enabling artists to pursue their labours as satis factorily during the night as during the blaze of a southern summer's clay. The expense of artificial light is in the following order—coal-gas being by far the cheapest, then vegetable oil, sperm oil, tallow, stearine, wax. There are various qualities of gas, the finest and brightest, but by far the most costly, being that from olive-oil, which yields nearly 80 per cent. of carbon. I%7ext comes the gas from resin, a pound of which will yield 20 cubic feet ; whereas one' on of the best coal will giVe 9,000 feet of gas (worth, in London, 4s. per 1,000 cubit feet,) besides pitch, tar, and coke. The inhabitants of London consume two thousand eight hundred million cubic feet ; and nightly, in winter, about fourteen million of feet are burnt.—New Quarierty Revfew. ViLIJABLE STONE QVAtEY.-A discovery of three very valuable and extensive beds of oolite, of the purest descrip tion, has just been made in the immediate vici n ity o f Dundry, near Bristol. They extend over •a 'S ttrface of nearly ten acres, and consist of blocks fully 30 feet thick. The quality of the stove is so superior that the architects who have examined it pronounce it far before the Port land, and invaluable•l`©r Gothic architecture end sculpture from its hardness and closeness of grain, it'being entirely without veins and net fraying. It is singular enough that these valuable beds should have remained se long hidden, as from the quarries in the almost immediate neighbour hood the stone vas taken with which Redcliff Church was built, and workmen's wages but Id. per day. The architects employed in the restoration of "ye pride and glorye of ye westerne lande," St. Mary Redcliff, have, from the unsatisfactory quality of the freestone in the neigh bourhood, been obliged to send, at 'a great expense, to Caen, in Normandy, for stone, in order that the edifice may not be subject to premature' decay. This necessity will now be •rntirely avoided, as these beds are found to be fully equal to the Caen in working and other qualities. We understand that the crop of the quarry is within two feet of the skrface.—Sherborne Mercury. SPORTING INTPLLIGENCE. BETTING AT MANCIIESTER.-FRTD2r.

MANUFACTURES. MANCITESTER.—The improvement in this market continued without diminution on Tuesday, mid the trans actions were at the full prices of the previous week, being, in all instances, a decided advance on the low prices of a fortnight previously, and for some descriptions —yarns and goods for India especially—the improvement has been con siderable. The market maintained the same position on Wednesday, but on Thursday the demand seemed to slacken, and there has been less inquiry 4e.e. The large purchases made for the India market havTcleared off all stocks, and many spinners are again in orders, the com pletion of which will take some time. The demand seems to have been satisfied for the present, and the market is now decidedly quieter again, but very firm, being main tained by the firmness manifested in the Liverpool cotton market, as well as by the clearance of stocks. The demand for yarn, besides the ext4nsive transactions for India, has Wended to the descriptions for the China market; and, :under this influence, prices of both have improved. There :has also been exhibited, on the part of manufacturers, rather more disposition to make purchases, in order to avail themselves of the low prices, before an advance took place. In goods the principal improvement has occurred in India shirtings and light cloths generally, in which some speculative transactions have been induced, by the exceedingly low prices prevailing ; but as values have -increased, so has the inquiry diminished, and there is -some little quietness observable. T-cloths and longcloths are inactive, but pretty steady, notwithstanding the in crease of stocks. Domestics are also quiet. BRADFOitiD.—WooI : The transactions in wool of all kinds suitable for eombing purpose continue limited, and the prices which recent sales have commanded are such as to deter the country dealers from sending forward fresh supplies till they see at what rates new•clips will bebought. Noiles and brokes without change.—Yarns: The demand 'for yarns is not active, but the prices which have recently been submitted to, entail a great loss to the spinner, and the production is daily lessened. There are no stocks on hand, and the spool trade is so flat as to prehibit spinning beyond two or three days a-week.—Pieces ; The long con tinuance of fine weather gives a tone of confidence in the prospect of approaching plenty, and produces the feeling that things have seen their lowest, and associated with the fact that wool has now assumed a stand, these in fluences are telling on the market. The prices at which goods have been selling for some time past, are far below the cost of production. LEEDS.—We have had very dull markets at our cloth .halls on the the two last market days, and the business done out of the market has been of the same character. Stocks are on the increase, more particularly in heavy goods, and prices are more in favour of the purchaser, but in seasonable sorts prices rule steady. Business has been dull in the warehouses this week, as is usually the case at Easter. NOTTINGHAM.—The week has been almost entirely devoted to holidays, consequently little or no business has .been doing either in the lace or hosiery trade, very few buyers having been here, and their purchases quite of a .retail character. Hosiery yari is without any change in Trice. Lace Tarn is a raere trifle more in favour of buyers. CATTLE. LIVERPOOL, APRIL 24.—We have bad a larger sup ply of cattle than last week, the quality of which was very superior. Beef was in good demand, and realized id per lb. advance. with a fair clea r a nce . Sh eep met a steady sale at full . ) , previous prices. Good beef worth sid to Nil per lb. ; mutton, 7fd to 8d per lb. ; ditto, clipped, 6d to 7d per lb. Cattle, 2,056 ; sheep, 4,915. SALFORD, APRIL 19.—Best heifers, 6d to 61d ; second ditto, 51d to 61d ; cows, 41d to 5 : 4 1 d sheep in wool, 71d to 8d; ditto clipped, 5-id to 6;d; calves, 44d to 61d. Number of beasts, 1,276: sheep, 4,500; calves, 320. A good clearance. DUBLIN, APRIL 20.—The great market at Easter, and various markets at the same period throughout the provinces, would seem to have reduced the stock of stall fed cattle very considerably, the result of which was that the supply at Smithfield this day was very small, and for heavy beef there was brisk buying, and an early clearance at an advance of 106 to 15s per head on the quotations of last week, and it is the general opinion that until the grass beef comes to market prices will continue to hold on—certainly a decline is not at all aculated on. In sheep the supply was small. A few shearlings appeared, which, as well as those in fleece, were held at very high rates, in consequence of which it was difficult to effect sales. The supply of lambs was large, which sold freely, without any change in rates since last week. A very large assortment of young calves, which seemed to go off quickly. The pig market dull, the demand for England having slackened, and the weather warm for curing. Prices of beef 646 to 60s per cwt., in sink, some touched 63s ; mutton el to 71d a 8d ; veal Std to 9d per lb. in do.; lambs 18s to 246 each ; pork 45s to 46s per cwt. ; calves, 30s to 60s a 70s each. PROVISIONS, LIVERPOOL, Arm', 21.—The market for beef is steady, but the present high rates offer no encouragement to the dealers to go into stock, hence the sales are of a more retail character than usual. The demand for pork is also confined to purchases for present wants, but very full prices are insisted on by holders. Bacon is rather more active, the reduction in price seems telling favour ably on the consumption. Hams and shoulders sell slowly. At a reduction of Is to is 6d per cwt. there has been a large business in lard, both on the spot and for forward delivery. No cheese left in first hands. Grease butter is saleable at 58s per cwt. APRIL 24.—There was a good demand for new butter last week, and all kinds met with a ready sale on arrival. The finest Waterford, 124 s to 125 s ; Clonmel, 116 s to 120 s; Limerick, 110 s to 112 s; Cork, 3rds, 114 e ; 4ths, 104 e ; and sths, 95s per cwt. landed. This day the im ports being liberal, and buyers refusing to purchase at late rates, prices have given way 4s to 68 per cwt., and the finest Waterford may now be quoted 120 s to 122 s ; Clonmel, 114 s to 116 s; Limerick, 108 s to 110 s ; Cork, 3rds, 110 s ; 4ths, 100 s ; sths, 90s per cwt. landed. Im ported from Ireland, from the 15th to the 21st instant, both inclusive, 5481 firkins, 137 kegs, 184 crocks, 194 boxes, 194 barrels butter, 124 bales bacon, 30 hhds. 12 tierces hams, and 45 kegs lard.

LIVERPOOL.—There have been no arrivals of colonial timber or deals during the week, and the only lots to hand are a few parcels of pitch pine from the United States, and small timber, with battens, &c., from Norway. Of pitch pine the last sale made was a lot of 67 feet average, at 2s 6d per foot. The Baltic arrivals have not yet been disposed of. In colonial timber a good business has been done by retail, the only lots now in first hands being St. John pine. Of deals one cargo has been sold from the quay, reported at £l3 lOs per standard. The deliveries of this article during the week have been a fair average at this season of the year, and more attention is now being drawn to them by their value compared with wood in the log.
