Trn necessity of providing a cheaper and more abundant supply of materials for the manufacture of caper, 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 will b e b es t su it e d 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 settle 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 cost consists in collecting its roots for planting, rent, &c., of land, and the labour of cutting and preparing. Its fibre 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 donbt, be had from the Hemp-leaved Nettle (Urtica canfttabina). 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 had everywhere ; and from theta a white fibre is procurable in abundance. We do not-find that it has been employed in vaper-making, but its -fibre is known tl o have been used for cordage. The best spe eies, we imagine, for a trial would be one of the annual Mallows - -; either the curlediieaved (Morava crisps) or the Zebra Mallow (M. maorMana), seed of both which is easily procurable of the great seed merchants. These are well'hnown to gardenersAtecause 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 (Spartiorn.lunceum), is reported to yield a very good substance without much trouble. So much of the former is to be found among plantations in poor candy districts, that there can be 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, *Thich should, we imagine, be collected for the fibre, as soon as the wood -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 he appreciated till "-common things" are understoothas well as useless rarities. In fact, there is now before ns a sample of fibrous mafter, produced in great abundance near Belmullet in Ireland, for which we have to thank Mr. Billington. He does - atot 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 thegreatest amount of money-out of land at the smallest possible expense, we venture - to submit the abere 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, althougla, like all other speculations, it belongs at present to what Mr. Justine Maule happily calls the "regions of indis tinctness," seems to us a subject extremely well worth 'careful investigation. A correspondent of the Biistoi Mirror, in detailing "a peep into a straw :paper mill;" 'near Tovil,•in Kent, gives the following partieulars::— All our readers are doubtless aware that straw is a hollow' tube, and the ladies know that in bonnets at least it has a' beautiful glaze on the outside, but they are not perhaps aware that that glaze is in ireality an extremely minute' film of glass, so that a straw is a bundle of small fibres glued together, and lining theinside of a glass tube, of which it is the object of the paper-maker to deprive it. To effectthis, and leave the fibres ofd as free as possible, the straw previously cleaned and cut in short lengths is l'boiled •in a strong solution of soda iley, 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, hut, declining to put onr head further in, follow our conductor to whereanother large boiling vat is being emptied into a little waggon, to be carried to the bleaching pits, close '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 theToom, where some hundredweights of chloride of - lime are dis solved, in some thousands of gallons ofwater, and account at once 'for the smell pervading the whole mill. The brown mess in the little waggon being now 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 so 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, i. e., the place where the bleached and boiled straw is ground into a ptilp. Here is an oval trough, a sanguinary - machine, full of knives, is •revolving rapidly, while the straw pas Sing •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 sehoal days left till next morning. Here also the Size, 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 'ha& 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 the 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 flows on to a kind of round towel, made of wire gauze, where it parts with some 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 through the wire gauze, and with the:help of some hundredweights of air above presses it into something like solidity. Now it wants all the sharpness .of our eyes to follow its move ments, as it first goes under rollers, looking like large rolls of flannel, then along travelling blankets, up to the ceiling and down to the floor, and in and out, and round and round, under one hot roller 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 Edinburgh, though at least not in its present state, but passing into the cutting machine is divided into three strips therein, sad then cut off at stated 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 rooms, 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 can, as from those very qualities the type indents it less than the more flexible and tougher rag paper, than which it is moreover cheaper. INDIAN SUBSTITUTES FOR RUSSIAN HEMP.—At the last meeting of the Society of Arts, Dr. Forbes Royie 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 Manila 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 "sum' " 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 secondtonone of allthe fibres at present imported. Some of this fibre had been made into a 5-inch rope and bad 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 the best hemp, and after numerous experiments, from the year 1803 to 1808, was 8051 b per square inch. In December last some experiments were 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, 1601 b ; Jubbulpore hemp, 1901 b ; Wuckoonar fibre, 1751 b ; mudar, or yercum fibre (common all over India), 1901 b ; China grass, 2501 b ; rheea fibre, 3 9 01 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 Indi a on account of the intoxicating property of its leaves. Dr Royle 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 of having them tried. A vast number of specimens of the different fibres, and of the articles manufactured from them, have been left At tlw Society of Arts for a few days for inspection.

A SHIP DESTROYED BY ICEBERGS.—On Monday last week, intelligence was received of the total destruction of the ship Mary, in the Atlantic Ocean, whilst on her pas sage from Liverpool to Boston. 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 far launching. The Baltic's dimensions are as follows : —Length between perpendiculars, 180 feet • breadth of beam, 26 feet ; depth, 15 feet ; b u rd en , 606 tons. Her engines, which are supplied by Messrs.

The heat, ft 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 ont vie the blaze of 2,000 meuld candles, (each candle ton sinning 175 grains of tallow per minute,) the quantity of adoric 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 day. 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 cosily, being that from olive-oil, which yields nearly 80 per cent. of carbon. Next comes - the gas from resin, a pound of which will yield 20 cubic 'feet ; whereas one ton of thelest coal will give 0,000 feet of gas (worth, in London, 4s. per 1,000 cubic feet,) besides pitch, tar, and coke. The (inhabitants of London consume two thousand eight hundred million cubic feet ; and niehtly, in winter, about fourteen million of feet are burnt.--New Quarterly Review.

VALEIVELE STONE QUARRE,—A aistotery of three very yaluableand extensive beds efoolite, of the purest descrip tion, has just been made in the imm e di a t e v i c i n it y o f Dunclis - , near Bristol. They extend over a surface of nearly ten acres, and consist of Blocksffully 30 feet thick. The quality of the stone is so superior that the architects who lit've examined it pronounce it afar before the Port land,aind invaluable for Gothic architecture and sculpture fromiits hardness and closeness of -grain, it being entirely: without veins and not fraying. Itis singular enough that these valuable beds should have remained so long hidden, as from the quarries in the almost immediate neighbour hood the stone was 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 -g4orye of ye westernelande," St. Mary Redcliff, have, from' the unsatisfactory quality of the free-stone in the neigh tourhood, been obliged to send, at a great expense, to I --Caen, in Normandy, Tor stone, in order that the edifice, I =may not be subject to premature , aecay. This necessity - will now be entirely avoided, as - these beds are found'to be fully equal to the Caen in working and other qualities. We understand thatthe crop of the quarry is within two, feet of the surface.-="Sherborne Mercury. Evan Harries, Tredegar, Monmouthshire, draper.—John Denbigh, Bradford, Yorkshire, woolstapler.

MANCHESTER.—The improvement in this market continued without diminution on Tuesday, and the trans actions were at the full prices of the previous week, being, in all instances, .9 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 since. The large purchases made for the India market have cleared 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 mow decidedly quieter again, but very firm, being main- Aained by the firmness manifested in the Liverpool cotton - market, as well as by the clearance of -stocks. The demand for yarn, besides the extensive transactions for India, has ‘extendedto the .descriptions for the China market ; and, milder 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 an 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 icrease of stocks. Domestics are also quiet. BRADFORD.—WooI: The transactions in wool of all ikinds suitable for combing purpose, continue limited, and ;the prices which recent sales have commanded are such as Tte deter the country dealers from sending forward fresh 'supplies till they see .at what rates newselips avill be bought. liuiles and brakes 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 sio stocks on hand, and the spool trade is so flat as to prohibit 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 fie 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 yarn is withortt any change in price. Lace yarn is a mere trifle more in favour of buyers. TRADE AND MARKETS. MONEY AND STOCKS. TUESDAY, APRIL 18.—Bank Stock, 214 13; Three per Cent.

CORN. LIVERPOOL, APRIL 22.—We have a good attendance at to-day's market : country and local millers have pur chased wheat freely, and a few parcels have been taken for Ireland, the limited supply of choice samples of both yellow and white enabling holders to obtain an advance of id to 2d per bushel, but ordinary kinds have not realised Any -improvement on Tuesday's rates, A considerable _quantity of flour . leas found b u y ers, c hi efly for consump ton, and prices stand nearly equal to those of last market day, with not mut* prime quality offering. Barley and beans dull, without change of value. Oats are offered more freely than of late, and sales are less feasible, on the return of weather more favourable for the spring crops. Oatmeal iu fair demand from country dealers, as well as for shipment coastwise, at full prices. Of white Indian corn a good deal is taken for the interior at steady rates, but yellow is less in request to-day, and Tuegday's value is not quite supported. BRITISH. ronEtoN.

English flour, of which the stocks are reduced to a narrow com pass, was held for is per sack over the currency of this day se'nnight, but the sale was slow ; whilst American was in fair request at a similar amendment. Oats must be noted ld to 2d per 451bs. dearer. Oatmeal was in im• proved demand, and the turn higher. PRESTON, APRIL 22.—There was scarcely any far mers' produce at our Corn Exchange to-day. The few samples of wheat that appeared were easily sold at about is per windle improvement in value. Beans, is to 2s per windle higher, and oatmeal is 6d per load dearer. From granary more business was done in wheat, and 3d to 4d per bushel more money realised. Flour is per pack higher, but the sale not brisk. Oats held for an advance of 2d per bushel, but enhanced quotations are little more than nominal, and the same may be written of oatmeal at 6d per load over the last currency. WAKEFIELD, APRIL 21.—The show of wheat was scanty. Trade has been firm but quiet. Fine fresh reds were fully Is per quarter dearer ; for common sorts the demand was retail, at previous rates. Oats were scarce, and rather dearer. Beans held for more money, which checked sales. Barley, shelling, and other articles un altered.—Arrivals : Wheat, 6,049 ; barley, 6,659 ; oats, 169; beans, 906. NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, APRIL 22.—We had a very large supply of wheat from the country this morning,. also considerable arrivals from abroad during the week Fine north country samples brought about the_ prices of this day week, whilst inferior may be quoted is to 2s per quarter cheaper. No alteration in the value of south country or foreign, but little business done. Barley in moderate supply, and sold at late rates. Oats fully is per quarter dearer. Flour a slow sale at the prices of this day se'nnight. WISBECH, APRIL 22.—There has been rather more wheat showing to-day, qualities very dry. Wheat sells freely at the same prices as last week. Beans and oats dearer. CORK; APRIL 22.—The flour market has been very slow in sales this week; prices are unaltered and the con sumption is good. The business passing in foreign wheats was small; millers anticipating some reduction from the very large arriVals this week. Indian corn unchanged; the demand being still far short of preceding semis, DUBLIN, APRIL 21.—We had a very quiet market at our Corn Exchange to-day, and prices of Tuesday were barely supported, except for oats, which may be quoted 3d to 6d dearer.

LIVERPOOL, APRIL 24.—We have had 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 clearance. Sheep met a steady sale at fully previous prices. Good beef worth 6-td to bid per lb. ; mutton, 7id to 8d per lb. ; ditto, clipped, 61-d to 7d per lb. Cattle, 2,056 ; sheep, 4,916. SALFORD, APRIL 19.—Best heifers, 6d to bid ; second ditto, 51d to 6;.,-d; cows, 4id to 51d : sheep in wool, 7jd to 8d ; ditto clipped, 61d to 6i'd ; calves, 44d to 60. 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 lOs to 15s per head on the quotations of last week, and it is the general opinion that until the gras's beef comes to market prices will continue to hold on—certainly a decline is not at all calculated 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 54s to 60ser cwt., in sink, some touched 63s ; mutton 0-td to lid aBd ; veal 81d to 9d per lb. in do.; lambs 18s to 24s each ; pork 45s to 46s per cwt. ; calves, 30s to 60s a 70s each. PROVISIONS, LIVERPOOL, APRIL 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 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 s ; 4ths, 104 s ; 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 6s 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.

Service resided many years in Calcutta, where her liver and s t omach had become so deranged that she had much difficulty in digesting any kind of food. She suffered almost unceasingly from sick headache, nervousness, and lowness of spirits, the result of a debilitated constitution. The medical aid she had was of no avail, and her friends gave up all hope of her recovery, until she had recourse to Holloway's Pills, which in about six weeks restored her to sound and perfect health.
