larger articles, they are very profitable to tho
manufacturer. The sewing Of these as of most
kinds Of gloves, Is done by women, and gives
employment to large number.
1SDTA-RUBBBB oLoyEs.
large number of india-rubber gloves arc
made in this country under Goodyears patent.
They are manufactured principally at Naugatuck,
Connecticut.
The heavy rubber gloves and mittens are in.
tended for the use of manufacturing chemists,
druggists, and photographers, or all who work
among acids, Alkalies, and other caustc mate
rails. The rubber is not affected by these arti.
Cles and eilectually protects the hands. They
are also adapted to the Of drivers and iremen,
batters, tanners, lumbermen, and variety Of
mechanics
They are useful to dyers and to those whose
avOcalions expose them 20 storms. These heavy
gloves are made Of solid rubber, as the india
rubber overshOes were formerly. The first pro
cess In the manufacture Is TO heat slightly mass
Of the gum, called "batch," which in this state
Is passed between revolving cylinders and becomes
a fiat sheet of the required size. From this sheet
the gloves and mittens are cut by gOuges similar
to those employed i'm the cutting Of the leather
gloves. They are then Joined by placing the
edges in contact, and covering them with strips
Of heated rubber.
The lighter STYLES Of rubber gloves are made
thus "A piece Of fstoCkinet or cotton CLOTH usually
the former is passed through the cylinders at the
same time with the "batCh" of gum, which by
this process completely coats It. From this the
gloves are cut and joined by covering the edges
with strips Of heated rubber. These gloves are
made Of variety Of colors, very soft and plia-
BILE and have a very neat finish. They are very
useful in domestic pursuits and gardening, and 20
be worn in AL kinds Of employment likely to dis
COlOrthe hands. By protecting the hands from the
atmosphere, and retaining the insensible perspi-
ration, they soften them and increase their white
ness, and often prove a cure for chapped hands
and salt.rheum.
The joining Of these gloves is done by women,
and &c "a AL nd nm
ployment.
We do net learn that there arc as yet any silk
or cloth gloves made in this country.-N. \.

One of the Last of the Hottentots.

Lady Duff Gordon, in her letter from the Cape,
says :--"At Guadenthal asked one of the Her
renhut brethren whether there were any real Hot
tentots, and he said, Yes, one : and next morn
ing, as l sat waiting for early prayers under the
big oak tree in the Plaats (squarel, he came up
followed by tiny old man, hobbling along with
a long stick 10 support him. Here said he, 'is
the last HottentUt he is l07 years old, and lives
all alone looked on the little, wizened, yellow
face, and was shocked that he should be dragged
up like wild beast TO be stared at feeling of
pity which felt like remOrse fell upon me, and
my eyes filled as l rose and stood before him, so
tall and like tyrant and OppressoT, while he
uncovered his poor little Old snow-whte head,
and peered up in my face.
81 led him 10 the seat and helped him to sit
down, and said in Dutch, Father, | hope you are
not tired; you are old lie saw and heard as
well as ever, and spoke good Dutch in a firm
voice. Yes, am above hundred years old,
and alone-quite alone ! sat beside him, and
he put his head on one side and looked curiOusly
up at me with his faded, but still piercing little
wild eyes. Perhaps he had perception Of what
/ telt-yet l hardly think so perhaps he thought
/ was in trouble, for he crcpt close up to me, and
put one tiny brown paw into my hand, which he
strOkGd with the other, and asked (like most
cOlOred people, if had children. | said Yes, at
home, IN England; and he patted my hand again
and said, God bless them IL was relief TO feel
that he was pleased, for should have felt like q
| murderer it my curiosity had added moments
pain to so tragic a fate. This may sound like
sCntmentalism; but you cannot conceive the
effect of looking on the last of race once the
! owners of all this land, and now utterly gone.
Oils look was not quite human, physically
/ speaking "a good head, small, wild d-bc lst eyes,
! piercing and restless; cheek.bones strangely high
| and prominent, nose quite fat mouth rather
| wide, thin, shapeess lips, and an indescriOably
small, long, pointed chin, with just a very little,
| soft white, WOOlly beard his head covered with
| extremely short close white wool, which ended
round the poll in little ringlets. Hands and feet

the size OF q child Of. IL. lie had all his teeth,

Wrinkled in the face, and not at all in the hands
which we're dark brown, while his face was yel-
low His manner and way Of speaking were like
those OF an old peasant in England, only his
voice was clearer aud stronger, and his percep-
/ tiOns not blunted by age. He had travelled with
one of the missionaries in the year 1890 or there

The footigbts blaze, the curtains rise,
Ard peering are a thousand eyes
where tinselled jugglets strut apace
with paint begritned each truthless face
Yon mountebank Of snowy hair,
I well could draw his home despair;
Poor, worn-out, crippled harlequin,
His efforts fail respect 70 win
whilst honored age, though lorn and weak,
A tutorage with youth may seek,
This old Obcdient, hired clown
Racks his stif joints 10 please the town.
Old men, they court repose by night;
The aged arm forgets 5 might;
lis raised to guide, or to ciress-
Tis folded pray erful, and to bless
III ose trembling hands hang by his side:
Those yalian; lips his limbs deride
And when 10 points the text may soar
With loud gutiaw the grouudlings roar.
Though chronic pains may pinch bis frame,
He must be MOmus, ever the same,
TO those who see him night by night
His tears would prove rare delight.
But 10 how faint the actor speaks:
He falteTs, and an exit seeks
cold Thespian, hast forgot thy cuep
Thy walks unsteady, thy text untrue /"
In vain the old comedian tries
To silence insulti murmurs rise
Away he totters with alarm,

On comedy the curtain rose;
On tragedy the players close
The vulgar crowd, they whistle and cry
A dying actors litany.
Behind the curtains, within chair.
Rudy of cheek and brown Of hair,
A corpse is resting; its brow is cold,
And on II painted lie is told.
For the mien that made the idle laugh,
It looks a solemn epitaph;
False and hollow is all we sec
His life, his art, were mOckeryl
Never will rustic in natures breeze
Those faded, painted, canvas trees
And the oily moon that CLEANS O'erhead
Never learned to weep for the dead.
From motley group, meath a tattered sky,
Comes one to speak this eulOgy
ale fought and fell as heroes yield
Upon the dramas battlefield"
Then a dancing girl, as beggarly muse,
Upon his brow, with shabby excuse,
Pressed laurel wreath that some Caesar had
worn,
A paper invention, dirty and torn.
His funeral procession numbered two;
Brief was the pageant, the costs were few;
And as they laid him away TO rest,
heard no pity, heard no jest

THREAD GLOVES.

Thread gloves are made in this country TO n
considerable extent, and manufacturers are
entering quite largely into the business. The
thread gloves made in Boston are fully equal TO
those of German or English manufacture, aud
are likely TO drive them from the market. Lsle
thread gloves are not made here yet, but doubt
less, will be soon. There is no reason why
foreigners should excel us in the manu- acture
of cotton goods of any description. Thread
gloves are manufactured by the same machinery
used in making hosiery, and usually in the same
establishments. Some are cut and sewed like kid
gloves and others are 50 woven as to require less
sewing. This is manufacture i'm which large
numbers Of women can be employed. The work
is easy and pays well.

wooLEN GLOVES.

Woolen gloves are also made TO a considerable
extent. Large numbers OF handmade, knitted,
or crOchctted wooden gloves and mittens find
their way into the market every winter. These
are of an sizes, from small zephyr gloves and
mittens for infants to heavy SaXony yarn for
men. The dealers in New York have, most Of
them, a regular supply OF these gloves from work
women who are usually Germans,
The woven wOolen gloves are made OF various
kinds and grades Of yarns and are usually woven
to resemble croChetted gloves, The largest man-
ufactory Of these is in Pennsylvania, near Phlla-
delpbia. The proprietor has purchased con-
siderable tract OF land surrounding his mills,
erected houses and Colonilgd his operatives, OF
whom he employs some three hundred, Pro-
yidng homes for the persons in his employ, he
thus ensures permanent and regular supply OF
labor. Besides cloves, he manufactures great
variety of yarn and zephyr goods A large
number of women aud children are employed in
this establishment. We have no scale OF wages,
but learn that they are liberal. We have seen
very beautiful specimens Of gloves from this
establishment.
TUR GLOVES.
A variety Of fur gloves are made IN TINS eoun
try Nearly all manufacturing turrers make
them. Gloves are sometimes made with inc inner
norton or palm Of kid or dogskin, aud the back
of fur. They are lined with flannel or an me
rior quality Of fur, usually the white squirrel OF
coney, and are well adapted TO use IN winter
travelling, for driving, &c. As they are easily
