WHAT VALUE MACHINERY CAN ADD TO RAW
CorroN.-The London Quarterly Review, in
an article upon cotton spinning machines and
their inventors, thus illustrates the produc-
tiveness of brain and hand, by showing what
machinery now enables the cotton-spinner to
do with pound of cotton:
Mr.. Bailey, of Manchester, exports what
is called 240 yarn in large quantities, for the
use of the finest foreign muslin manufactures
Of the tineness of this thread, some idea may
be formed when we state that 24O hanks,
each $40 yards in length, are spun from a
single pound weight of eatton or total
length of about 1ll mlesl But this does
not by any means exhaust the capabilities of
English machinery; for at the great exhibi-
tion of 1851, specimens of yarn spun at Boil
ton were exhibited SO fine as No 700, or
equal to 334 miles in length, spun from one
pound of material Worked up in the finer
kinds of lace, the original shillings worth Of
cotton wool before it passes into the hands OF
the consummer, may be increased to the
value of between $500 and e400.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 2L
Yesterday afternoon the Sheriff informed
Mr. woodward, proprietor of the What Cheer
House, that by 10 o'clock to-day the premi-
ses must be cleared. 1t appears that the lot
on which it stands was leased by Mr.. Wood
ward or his brother in 1858 of Cook Bros.
for the term of years with an agreement
that at the expiration of the lease the inn
provement which he should erect should be
allowed for in settlement or 4 new lease
should be granted, but the ownership of the
lot was in dispute between Cook Bros. and
Payne & Dewey. A suit of eiectment
brought by the latter firm resulted in giving
possession to Payne & Dewey who ignored
the binding nature of the Cook agreement
with Woodward concerning the improve.
ment.
In this state Of affairs, Mr. Woodward,
seeing no hope of a settlement, to-day remov-
ed everything but the walls.

FLORENCE AS THE CAPITAL OF UNITED ITALY
Mr.. Trollope, the well known author and
Florence correspondent Of the London Athe-
neum. in a late letter to that Journal says;
In the midst of the tempestuous thunder
ings and dazzling lightning flashes of this
latest act of the great Italian dpama, the idea
seems steadily gaining ground on every side,
that FLORENCE, the "hower of all cities city oi
all flowers, will ere long be called to the high
destiny of becoming the capitol Of united
Italy. He adds:
Between Rome and Florence the chQce
will certainly lie-and mighty though pres
tige Of ages which girdles round her of the
Seven Hills. the manifold objections which
lie in the way Of her supremacy need no for
mulizing to mark their importance. Even

before. to a domain beyond the Alps, vet an
insurmountable obstacle to the choice OF

months OF the year renders it pestiferous to
foreigners and perilous even to its inborn
population. Centuries of improved drainage
and enlightened cultivation may indeed lessen
or remove the evil-but meanwhile regener-
ated Italy must have her capital, and many
and weighty are the reasons WHICH mark its
site here. Shall we, indeed, see Dante's be-
loved little city Of the narrow zone queening

The Fair Tambourinist.

With feet half naked and bare,
And dress all tattered and torn,
With penny here and m0ckery there
Aud floods of derisiOn and scorn,
She wanders the street wherever her feet
Weary and willing, are borne,
With an eye as bright and cheek as fair
AS the earliest blush Of the morn.
Wandering up and down,
And driven from door to door,
A st for every idle clown
And butt for every boOr
While the velvet-sppered, in satin and lace,
CO rustling by her side,
With frozen heart and curtained face
And lip curled into pride.
So beautiful, yet so frail,
So willing, and yet so weak,
o what if the heart should fail,
And heavenly purpose break
And the dens and kennels and brothels of Hell
Another poor victim hold,
A celestial spark be quenched in the dark,
And an angel bartered for gold
No wonder the heart should fail,
And heavenly purpose fade,
The eve grow dim aud the cheek grow pale
When none stand ready to aid
No wonder the lairs and cradles of Hell
So many poor victims should hold,
When the good are content to worship their God
And the rich to worship their gold.
Move patiently on, Earth
Till Mercy's wandering dove,
Shall fiy to the realm of its birth,
And rest in the bosom of Love
Move patiently on till the cruci6ed Christ
Shall gather his radiant crown
From the lowly flowers and bleeding hearts
That the world has trampled down

DIPTHERA AND ITS CURE.-This singular
disease, which has thus far seemed TO battle

so prevalent and has been so generally fatal,
that any suggestion in regard to its cure will
hardly prove uninteresting lis causes are
not known, and therefore treatment has here
tofore been merely experimental; but its pa
thagonomc symptoms are so diversified and
dissimilar, that in many instances the throat
of the patient closes. and he dies before his
disease is discove ered In the early stage of
the complaint, which is always accompanied
by soreness and swelling of the throat, let
the patient use simply solution of salt and
water as gargle, every fifteen minutes. At
the same time moisten piece of flannel with
a solution of the same kind, made as hot as
the patient can bear it, and bind it around
the throat, renewing it as often as the gargle
it administered; and in the meantime sprink.
ling fine salt between the flannel and the
neck. Use inwardly some tonic or stimulant,
either separately, or if the prostration be
great use both together. This treatment, as
may be seen, is extremely simple, and if used
in the earlier stages of the disease, will effect
a complete Cures. r. Mirror.
