The shawls of Cashmere supply the whole
civilized world. 1t is said they are manufactu-
red at Is 900 looms, each of which gives en-
ployment to two or three men. The work IS SO
inconceivably tedious, by which the fine pat
terms are produced, that not more than quar-
ter of an inch is completed in whole day 1t
is not unusual to find a loom occupied with one
shawl for an entire wear. The wool of which
they are made is brought from Tibet, consisting
of the inside coat or down of sheep peculiar to
that mountainous region. The woolis at first

HERMIT OF THE VALE.
PATHETIC NARRATIVE.

The remarkable fine bells of Limerick Ca
thedral were originally brought from Italy; they
had been manufactured by young native
(whose name tradition has not preserved,) and
finished after the toll of many years 9; and he
prided himself upon his work They were sub
sequently purchased by the prior of the neigh
boring convent; and with the profits of this sale
the young Italian procured little villa, where he
had the pleasure of hearing the tolling of his
bells from the convent cliff, and growing old in
the bosom Of domestic happiness. This, how
ever, was not to continue. In some of those
broils, whether civil or foreign, which are the
undying worm of a fallen land, the Italian was
sufferer amongst many. He lost his all; and
after the passing of the storm, found himself
preserved alone, amidst the wreck of fortune,
friends, family, and home. The convent in
which the bells were hung was RACED to the
earth, and these last carried away into another
land The owner, haunted by his memories,
and deserted by his hopes, became wanderer
over Europe. His hair grew gray, and his heart
withered, before he again found home or
friend In this desolation of spirit, he formed
the resolution of seeking the place to which
those treasures of his memory had been finally
borne He sailed for Ireland---proceeded up the
Shannon---the vessel anchored in the pool, near
Limerick and he hired a small boat for the pur-
pose of landing. The city was now before him;
and he beheld St. Marys steeple lifting its tur-
reted head above the smoke and mist of the
Old Town. He sat at the stern and looked fond
" towards it. 1t an evening so calm and
beautiful as to remind him of his own native
skies in the sweetest time of the year-the death
of the spring. The broad stream appeared like
one smooth mirror, and the little vessel gided
through it, with almost noseless expedition.
On sudden amidst the general stiffness, the
bells tolled from the Cathedral-th rowers rest
ed on their oars, and the vessel went forward
with the impulse it had received. The old TIA
liam looked towards the city, crossed his arms
on his breast and lay back in his seat; home,
happiness, early recollection, friends, family,
were all in the sound, and went to the heart
When the rowers looked round they beheld him
with his face still turned towards the Cathedral,
but his eyes were closed, and when they landed
THEY FOUND HIM COLD!

ate farewell and sunk silently into the arms of
death.
ALFRED stood for some time, gazing with be-
wdered fondness on the lfeless form that lay
before him He seemed scarcely conscious of
the scene which surrounded him, and it was
nearly an hour before he could collect himself
sufficiently to 60 and awake the remainder of
the family. He walked the room during the rest
of the night, scarcely knowing where he was,
or what he was.
The rising sun brought a new scene to his
troubled bosom; it rose to be sure, as it usual
ly had done, in all its brightness; but it seemed
wholly different to ALFRED, who had been ac-
customed to enjoy its first beams with his be
loved HARRIET. He walked out and seated
himself by the side of soft, murmurlng stream,
overshadowed by wide spreading oak, beneath
whose branches they had,spent many, very ma
nv pleasant hours together. There his heart
found vent to its feelings in flood of tears his
soul became more calm, and he returned to his
dwelling
The first pangs of grief were over, and he
could now, without faltering, assist in making
preparations for her funeral, which was to take
place the day following. He caused her grave
to be dug beneath the oak tree which had been
their usual place ofresort, during their moments
of happiness. He remained serene, and as much
resigned as could be expected, till the day of
her funeral He saw their numerous friends and
acquaintance collecting almost universally to
pay their last respects to one whom he thought
superior to all other earthly objects, and it gave
him satisfaction During the sermon he was So
Tenn and attentive, and when the clergyman
addressed him separately, he took every word
to his heart He followed her to the grave,
where the coffin was opened to take last view
of its contents He bore the sight with compo-
sure till the lid was closed forever upon the OBJ
ect of his affections 1t was then he felt his
heart chilled---he saw her let safely into the
grave; the first shovel full of dirt, as it rung
upon the coffin, pierced his heart his head be-
came wildered, and he would have sunk to the
earth. but for some of his friends who stood near
and caught him.
He was carried home senseess, and remained
50 for some hours when he recovered so as to
be able to walk the shades of evening were fast
spreading over the landscape; he went out,
plucked sprig from a wild rose-bush, that
grew near the house, went to her grave, and
planting it in the green turf that embosom-
ed her remains, knelt down by the side of the
little mound, and offered up to heaven devout
prayer that he might be enabled to bear his loss
with composure, and be assisted in the pathway
of his duty, so as to be enabled to meet her
again in the realms of bliss.
He has since caused tomb stone to be erect
ed with an inscription expressive of his sent-
ments The wild rose which he planted there,
on the evening of her funeral, has spread SO

readily when spun. It curious fact that two
borders are attached to the shawls after fabri-

place Of junction The valley of Cashmere
has been celebrated from the most early times
for its beauty. Nothing can exceed its roman
tic advantages from nature In the centre of a
plain near the lake of Cashmere, studded with
little isles, were the gardens and pavilions Of
the Mogul Emperor, where the mobiles made an
nual visits to feast on the charms of this lovely
valley, and to choose wives from among the beau
tiful girls of Cashmere whose decacy of com
plexion and symmetry of form were only sur
passed by the elegant turn of their minds, the
liveliness of their dispositions, and the sweet
of their tempers.
