ANALYz1NG SHoE.-Mr. Flanagan, of Second
street. has gone into a complete analysis of the boot
and shoe, which he describes even to the number of
stitches He says: To manufacture complete gen.
tlemans boot requires seventy-sx separate and dis
tinct peces-nas and pegs are only included in this
number as one piece. Each boot is obliged to pass
through the hands of the workmen more than one
hundred and sixty different times and the skill of
fortyfve different mechanics and men of professions
is required to complete it. To manufacture gentle
mems fine calf boots and have in them combined du-
raby, economy, and neatness, is the masterpiece of
the gentemen's part of 6" our business" In speaking
OF ladies' Shoes he says: Experience has taught us
the French lasting gaer is considered the most per-
feet dress shoe lady wears, and has been the lead
ing dress shoe amongst the most fashionable circles
for many years. The gaiter boot. the masterpiece in
the ladies' branch of business, to make them proper
Iy, requires forysx separate and distinct pieces. In
putting them ogethe: the stitching required will as
tonsh any one unacquined with the business; the
number of stitches upon pair of uppers before the
soles are put on counted by lady artisans, is
1910. And this is but little than our regular
manufactured work contains in general
The work is beautifully done by lady of this city,
Mrs. William Magee, who is certainly master of her
business. Putting the sole to the uppers COZ more
stitches added, which being complete contains

The following is from travelling correspondent
of the New York Courier j. Enquirer. now IN Brazil
That this miserable system of Brazilian govern
ment is the of all the decay everywhere to De
met with in the provinces, hardly needs proof, SO
papable is the fact. A great system OF centralza-
ton concentrates all prosperity in Rio de Janelro
and amid the brilliancy of the Court, the mlseres
of the provinces receive attention Brazil Is oi-
vided into provinces as our own country Is INTO
states, and these provinces governed by Presl-
dents and Vice Presidents as states are by Gov
ernors and Lieutenant Governors. But instead OF
being selected by the people, the Presidents are ap-
pointed by the Court and sent to rob and prey up
the poor devils in the provinces, during the plea
sure of his Imperial Majesty In these provinces,
these Presidents are petty Emperors, they grant
passports, remit duties, and perform functions OF
sovereigns small scale, taking to consult
their convenience incidence avarce, with
the slightest regard to the interests OF the pub
lie at large, the people they especially sent to
govern. Strangers to these subjects, they take no
interest in Them and seek only how to most benefit
themselves during their presidency. They are alb
solute and do as they please. | will give you but
one example of this assumption of power, by which
we are likely to be the sufferers
The Imperial Mail Steamship Company run line
of six steamers between Rio Grande do Sui and
Para, stopping at every Presidency on the route
Each steamer receives $4,000 per trip, and the
Mail is semi monthly one. On arriving at a port
the commander Of steamer is obliged to wait upon
| His EXcellency and ask when it will please His
Highness to permit the steamer to pursue her voy
age. The captain Care not go to sea without the
written permission of the President, and His Tx
cellency has the power to detan the ship long as
suits his sovereign pleasure, Notwithstanding what
may be the loss by of the delay to the pas
sengers, or the cost to the Company. Our party
took passage at Maranham with the expectation of
meeting the English steamer from Southampton, for
Montevideo, at Pernambuco. At Ceara, where we
need not have remained six hours were detain-
ed thirty-six. And here where the stoppage should
have been three hours, have already been thirty
so that whilst we should have been at Pernambuco
yesterday morning, we shall not be there until to-
morrow night. By these delays we may lose the
English steamer which will the loss of
weeks of time, say nothing of discomfort aud ex
pense. The Brazilians do everything in this man
ner delaying constantly, and never being ready for
anything. The conduct of the Presidents in de-
tanning the steamers, though they know when they
are due is but type of their proceedings. What
would be thought of the Governor of New York un-
derang TO detain Collins steamer to suit his
venience, or the Governor of New Jersey OBTAINING
a Cunarder until he should write letter :!

A VOitige ur's Feat.


The feat of jumping from balloon, the jumper
tanned by India rubber rope, was duly performed
on Thursday. 1t was the most stupendous exhibition
of daring and address that the Parsians have vet been
permitted 10 witness. From one side of the ear of the
baon hung the India rubber cord, descending $50
feet and then returning and being fastened to the 9TH
er side of the car 1t thus formed strong loop. The
athlete was dressed as Mercury; his body, from the
neck to the small of his back, enclosed in frame
work, which enabled him to endure the suspension
without wrenching or dislocang. The rope passed
through eveet in the middle of the back placed so
that he was held in perfect equilibrium When the
balloon had reached and altitude double that of the
supposed elasticity of the cord, the votigeur appear
ed on the edge OF the car looked over shut his eyes,
and dove off into space The eyelet slipped along the
rope, so that the first $50 feet were a positive fall
through the air, without resistance or break The
rest of the way was elongaton of the rope. 1t
stretched four times its length making in all descent
of 600 feet, accomplished in two seconds.
After having attained its lowest point the rope con-
traced once, perhaps 200 feet, and then descended
again. There no further rebound, and no osciI-
lation the yotigeur lay calmly Graded in MD air,
and probably spent the leisure he was now permitted
to enjoy in recovering his breath and contemplating
the prospect. The aronaut above commenced at
the wndlass, and gradually wound his dangled friend
up again. In four minutes he climbed over the side
of the car having made the fastest time that any hu-
man being has achieved, except such as have
been SHOT from cannon. Baron Munchausen said he
was, think. Six hundred feet in two seconds is at
the rate of three miles and half minute. We are
waiting now TO know what will be done next.

CoTToN FROM SOUTH CAROLINA.-We notice in our
report of the markets this week the sale of bale
of new Cotton at l. J cents per Id. 1t sent on
the Manchester Road, from South Carolina, by Gen.
WIN. EVANS, to Miles CosTIN, Esq, Commission
Merchant of this place. and was bought by Messrs.
RUSSELL & Bro also Commission Merchants, who
have been in the Cotton trade for some time. From
sample before us, it appears to be of fine texture
The East end of the Wilmington & Manchester
Road is now completed some IS miles-to and over
the Little Pee Dee. We learn that only about 20
miles more remains TO be finished, which will carry
the Road to the Big Pee Dee. When completed,
which, we learn, will be about the middle OF next
December, our trade will naturally extend further
into South Carolina, and will, doubt, prove
most valuable acquisition to the business of Will
mington.
By the way, we believe Gen. EVANS was the first
Contractor on the Road, and he is now the first, in
South Carolina, to send his produce to this market
by means of it.

AHh.t to Railroad Managers.
To the Editors ofthe Journal:
laAo II. u H.

TO lie Edlf0TS OF JONI7IuI
A late traveller in Prussia says: The Conductors
have time piece placed before them in the cabroIet,
which is secured by paddock, TO prevent all touch
ing of the works These areAregulated By the clocks
Of the messager:es and by them the moment of arri
val at each town and village is ascertained."
Now, here is hint for the managers of American
Railroads. 1t is known that late most disastrous
collision on Northern Railroad ,--the Providence
and Worcester,-was owing TO a variation in the
watches of the Conductors of the respective trains
Had each train been provided with time piece, regu-
lated daily by the standard, it is not probable
the collision would have occurred. Every train on
every Railroad in the United States, particularly sin
gle track Roads, should be furnished with such, in
stead of the Conductors being left TO rely their
own watches
I believe other collisions than that above referred
to have happened within the last two three years,
from the same cause. SAFETY.
