TnE BEGINNING OF WooLLENs-The Lowell
Courier contains letter from Mr.. Lotus NJ. Nor
ION, of Goshen, Ct, to Mr. Samuel Lawrence of
Boston, which gives history Of one of the first
If not quite the first systematic effort To manuuc-
turc woolIens upon an extended scale. The scene
is laid in lSl3-ll, and looks strangely IN com
parison with things in 1913. Three men, of
whom Mr.. Norton was one, put together capi-
la of SIX thousand dollars. and established a fac
tory in Goshen which cost over three thousand
dollars. Wool cost dollar and half pound,
and badly made broad.clotIs brought from IS 80
to :Sl3 per yard. One invoice OF l1cb Yards
brought total Of Sl,1o9 33. Another invoice
Of 30 yards brought S2,55l -; or more than
ol0a yard. such cloths, if they would sell at
all now, would bring about one dollar a yard
But as 1t was the war came TO an end Il ts.uge
Of English cloths overwhelmed the little y ankee
factory, and the partners settled up ~ilh the loss
OF the capital and three times as much morc.-
Such is an outline Of the first essay, or one of the
first, at making broad cloths IN this country, and
the losses were hardly an apology for the hundreds
oi thousands which have been lost sincc through
all OF which however the Yankees have gone on
nndaunted, until in many articles they are able
now to DEFY the skill Of the old nations In those
days, merlnO sheep were the most beautiful ami.
mails which walked the EARTH and their price was
from one hundred 10 fifteen hundred dollars He
was a great man who owned sheep, and not a
small! man who could say that he owned quar-
ter Of one.

Rewards Of 1880 are offered for the appre-
bsns;on of the murderers OF the family OF Mr..
Parke. In Warren Co. \. $500 by the erov-
ernor and Sl0oo BY the friends OF the family
The Newark Advertiser contains the following
account of this horrid occurrence, varying N
some respects from that heretofore published
On throwing open the door. the body of Mrs,
Cashier was found. with her murdered infant IN
her arms. LIVING in bed, killed apparently by S.abs
IN the neck. On going up stars the neighborS
found = hired boy, some ID or - years old, IN ms
bed. severely wounded BY similar stabS, unable
TO oiyc any account whatever OF the dreadful oc-
currencc. not knowing even how he was hurt,
tbouoh having possession OF his senses. They
next entered Mr. Parkcs room. and also found
his BODY in bed. he having been killed IN the
same wav. apparently hv the same instrument
On returning to the lower story OF the house. two
bows. from 6 TO 10 years old, Mr. CASHIERS eldest
children, were found aSlocpin the room adjoining
their mothers perfectly unconscious OF the dread
iu tragedy enacted during the night
Money appears 10 have been the object, rs the
family was reputcd 10 be -ich. Mr.. Parke. 1t IS
said had drawn sevcrai thousand collars from The
Belyidere Bank. winch was found undlStaThed IN
his closet Cashiers desk WAS found open, and
may have been robbed ol more or less money
but nothing certain is known about H. fffs PlS-
tolls, for he always kept weapons OF defence on
hand were found undsturbcd
\ Coroners inquest was held as soon as posi-
bic by Justices Arndt and Anderson.and verdict
of wilnl murder, by some person or persons an,
known was rendered 40 clue had been obtained
TO lead to any discovery Yesterday, II was con-
iectured that Cashier, who was strong, athteuc
man o; 81 or 10 wears. must have been called
out OF bed and murdered on the road, as there were
marks of scutfie near the lime stone sink hole,
where the body, cut and bruised apparently by
some rails from the fence, was found.
The scene of the shocking ta'f Is about %
miles west OF Newark, within miles OF Port OF
den, on the Morris canal, about 10 miles this SIDE
of BeIviderc, and within ? miles Of the village OF
Mansfield \ robust looking foreigner, who wears
suectac!cs. came INTO the ncighborhood some few
weeks since. and was during Monday, but
was not present at the examination, nor was 1t
known that he had any knowledge OF II. The
wounded boy, it is thought. Will recover, but he
can throw no light whatever on the case. The
physician thought from the appearance of the
wounds. and the fact that the bodies were yet
warm when discovered. that the murders must
have been penetrated after midnight or near Tues
day morning.

American SrLK.-Wc have been shown speci-
mems of the silk manufactured at the establish
mcnt of Mr. J. w. Gill, OF Mount Pleasant, JET
fcrson county, Ohio, which are IN the highest de-
gree crcdtabc to American skill and industry
The articles consist OF two pairs OF close panta
looms the one red and the other blue, such as are
worn upon the stage. and were made for Slr. For
rest, the tragcdial. We are not Judges OF tins
kind o fabric, and cannot therefore, say how tins
American silk Will compare with that OF Europe :;
but we can say, that the articles we have seen are
strong iii their texture, exceedingly neat and
beautiful in appearance, pleasant to the touch,
and, what is quite as important as either, sold at
Just onc-haIf the price of foreign fabrics OF the
same description. The establishment OF Mr.. Gill
is very prosperous, as the demand tor his goods Is
every day rapidly increasing.
This paragraph we cut from the Ereaing Post,
the las, paper in which we should have expected
ever to find it. Heretofore that print, with its
Free Trade conrcdcratcs, has thought the idea of
raising silk in America sufficiently udcrous to
serve as standing Jest against the friends OF
Protection to American Industry. Hlr. Wood
bury. in his Tabernacle discourse, was paricu-
larry facetlous on this very point. Yet the Post
has discovered andis unguardedy candid enough
TO confess that Silk of most excellent and beau
tlu quality may be manufactured IN this
country-at "A price, TOO, which by no means
orbids the hope that We may at no very distant
