WHALE LEATHER.-Squeezing oil out of
stone coal was a thing to be thought of as
q miracle that might some day convert the
heather but to get shoe leather from the
skin of whale is so reasonable probabii-
ty, that one is amazed it should not have
been attempted longe ago A Frenchman
has obtained a patent for whale leather,
and remarkably plant stuff it is. The skin
is so thick that removing the inner portion,
which is spougy, the remainder is split to
make it the usual thickness. 1t is re-
markably tough, but soft as buckskin, and
it repels water well. The Yankee boot is
most miserable ; the leather is spoiled by
bad tanning, and worse working-up. This
makes an unfair relation between supply
and consumption, which it viii need all the
whales of the ocean to eqnalize. The dis
covery comes at time when land leather
is growing alarming scarce and we behold
in it beautiful provision of Providence, on
ly excelled by the discovery Of coal oil OF a
juncture still more eritical-in the history of
human progress.
