DG~ A glorious opportunity is offered
to the loyal braggarts who have been
boasting of their excessive loyalty to the
"Government" for the past few years
Gov. Curtin, advertises for 35, ,26s of these
fellows. The Governor wants none but
"loyal citizens to fall in, and fill up the
ranks, but we fear this test will prove that
the people of our country are all disloya!'
as we can find no one willing to volunteer
We hope the men who, previous to the
late election, were in favor Of Curtin and
no draft, will now volunteer. Turn out;
ye boasting loyalists, and practice wha'
you preach.

TO billiards, 10 whom the editor replies as follows
9 Yes sir We can tell you ali about billiards. 1t is q
game consisting of two men in their shirt sleeves
punching balls about on n table, and presenting the
keeper Of the table with fifteen cents, or, rs is COM
monty the case in this country, setting him to mark
il down. This last mentioned custom has given them
the title of billiard markers. If you have a decided
genius for the game you will make a superior player
at the expense of about 100 dollars. Blacksmiths,
carpenters, &c, play it for exercise. Ii was invented
by a shrewd saloon keeper, who was not satisfied
with the profits of whisky. and was too much opposed
to temperance TO water it,"

! GUSSY BAGs.-Gunny bags are made from the
cease spun hbres Of a plant which grows in India. of
which there are many varieties. On the Coromandel
Scoast this plant is called goni. and = gunny'' IS a
corruption OF this name. The cultivation of the chuti,
8 juts or a. gunny'', has been carried on for centuries
at Bengal, and gives employment TO thousands Of in

SHenly, 80 find employment there. Boatmen, in their

and despised Hindoo widow earns her bread in this
way. Il is said that three hundred thousand tons of
jute are grown in India. of which one hundred thou
sand tons are exported as gunny bags. besides one
hundred thousand tons in n raw state. 4 London
Company has established a manufactory in Calcutta
at an expense of e300 600. The gunny bag is used
for q great variety of purposes. Sugar, coffee, spices,
scoiton, drugs, indeed almost every article which we
pack in dry cask. and in boxes, is, in the East,
packed in gunny bags. 1t is also made into mats,
..carpets. ropes, paper. and various other articles. 1t
us related that the old gunny bags which contained
sugar, are sold 10 beer makers, who sweeten their
beer by boiling the sugar out of the bags, and then
.sel them TO the mat-makers.

PERPETUAL MoTIOS.-A Vermont Yankee claims
to have invented a self propelling wheel, or perpet-
ual motion. \ correspondent of the Boston Journal
thus describes il
IL is a simple wheel, runs on gudgeons, and is in
dependent of any outside spring, weight or power, as
a propeller. On the same axle on which the metal
wheel is fixed is n band wheel, on which n band runs
over = small pulley that drives u small circular saw.
Set il on n table and remove the brake, and il will
start itself and run with great velocity, driving the
saw. 1t is the simplest thing in the world, but l
cannot intelligibly describe it but il is ut once un-
derstood by the behOlder. 1t will not, nay, cannot
stop without a brake, as it is so fixed by means Of
balls and arms that the descending side of the wheel
Is perpetualIy further from the center of motion
than the opposite ascending.
