PROGRESS or THE ARTS I.vPR.zh,CE,

Compiled for the Democratic Press, from NJ.
Chap,Afs's comparison between the indus.
try Of France, in tfss, and 1879.
lin 1889, the French imported Cotton
Goods, to the amount of 26 millions Of
francs in 1912 l million and half.
1he Cachamire Shaqvis. of M. Ter
naux, are fully equal to those Of India.
The Angola goats imported lately, prom-
ise new faculties to this manufacture.
The manufactures Of Linen and of
SilA, have been wonderfully improved of
late years; and the machinery Of Mr..
Douglass invited into France, by M.
Chaptal has greatly contributed to the
perfection of all the manufactures depend
ing on spinning and weaving.
The establishments Of the manufacture
OF Chemical Artc!es, now excel the En-
glish, both in. quality and price.
The art of Bleaching, both with, and
without the aid Of oxymuriatic acid, has
been carried to the highest perfection,
not only on linen and cotton, but on the
pulp of paper. In this way, colours are
not only discharged; but paper is also
coloured now, with the most beautiful
tints, at cheap rate.
DistiNanon has been brought to great
perfection, by the improvements Of Mes.
Sis Chaptal, Argand and Edward Adam.
The first improved the form of the still,
by diminishing its depth, in proportion to
its capacity the latter saved fuel by his
mode Of heating the wash, and eoudcns-
ing the spirit Of various strengths by a
single operation. TSt
During the revolution, the art ofmak.
ing Tinegar for the table, for naanufac-
lures, and for medicine, by distiIling
wood, and clyriying the pyroligneous
acid, has been SO improved, as TO sup
ply great part of the consumption of this
article at the best tables of Paris.
The art Of chemically Purifying Wa-
ter, by the Improvement of fltres, not
merely in the mechanical construction,
but in the chemical additions that precip-
itate the impurities of water, have essen
italy contributed Of late years, 20 health
and to comfort.
The art of extracting the finest and
most nourishing Of Soaps from the GEL
antine, contained in boxes, were brought
to great perfection, by M. Cadet de
Vaux,-. and the art of preserving
ne@t, fruit, vegetables, and mik. per-
fec6y good for years, by the process Of
