Trade Of the Zollrervim- Exhibition of German
Goods in Ntp York and Philadelphia.
The object Of this is to give you some account of
the production and manufacture of silk in the Zol
veren and adjacent countries 1t is known that the
first silk worms were, in the sixth century, brought
by monks from China and the East Indies. and car
ried by them to Athens, Thebes and Corinth. The
intercourse between Venice and Greece soon
brought the silk trade into the hands of the Vene
tians, and they succeeded in keeping monopoly
of it, although in the llth century, the cultivation
of silk was carried on in Spain, and all over Italy,
and from there IT was transpanted into France in
the beginning of the sixteenth century. English
writers pretend that the culture of silk was cem-
menced in England in the fifteenth century, but ac
knowledge that only in the sixteenth century it be-
came of any importance. In Germany, the culture
of silk first began III the reign of Frederick the
Great; but notwithstanding all the patronage he
gave 1t, at his death the total amount of silk pro-
ducsd in Prussia was only $4,000 lbs; now mulber-
ny trees are cultivated all over Prussia. But the
southern States of the Zollveren produced more

In France, the climate Of nearly the whole coun-
ly increasing. The amount OF silk produced in
1886 was valued at 60 millions of francs, and in
ls43 at over lis millions of francs; yet France inn
ports annually for its own consumption, from 60 to
72millions francs value of raw silk Engand's pro-
ducon is trlng, but imports largely, say over four
millions pounds sterling worth of raw silk for her
own use Russia requires annually about !, 900
lbs. Of silk, and is supplied with part of it from its
southern provinces. In Switzerland but little silk
is produced, and mostly in the Canton of Tessin-
say 65, 900 lbs of raw silk The export of silk from

Total annual exports OF Italy, about nine to ele-

monarchy exports the greatest quantity Of silk, and
posed that the total export Of Austria annually
amounts to nearly four millions pounds sterling,
to France, England, and other countries; but
there are no actual returns, to ascertain it with
certainty.
Silks, and stufis of which silk forms the chief
material, were first brought into Germany by the
Huguenots and fugitives from religious persecu-
and by the protection afforded to this trade by the
German princes and governme nts 1T was established,
