a little idea of this subterranean and sub
marine journey.
The cars sped along at remarkably rap
id pace. Gen. Ord inquired Of Superinten.
dent Rice if he did not think that Colonel
Gowan's underground" railway compared
favoraby with the Michigan Central, both
as regarded speed, ventilation and convent,
ence. Mr.. Rice admitted that the Michigan
Central was nowhere; but suggested that the
only thing he feared was meeting a down
train. lie also reminded Conductor Gowan
that it was quite time to pass through and
take up the tickets
Col. Gowan replied that the road would
soon be paying a large dividend annually to
the citizens of Chicago, and they all owned
stock in it.
After journey of fifteen minutes through
a straight, dark road, at canterng speed
the train emerged into the last chamber,
which was lighted by innumerabe little
lamps. The miners looked bewildered at
the strange advent and laughed outright as
the parties stepped from the cars and shook
themselves. Colonel Gowan announced that
they had about 400 feet further to traverse
on foot, before they got to the extreme end
of the tunnel. Taking lamp he led the
way. The long men in the party doubled
themselves up and followed, and short men
bent their heads very low. Tramp, tramp,
tramp" untils backs and legs ached, and at
length the extreme end of the tunnel was
reached. About twelve feet was dug into
the solid clay, and the miners, who stood
about the weird place like so many swarthy
spectres, were engaged in brick laying and
cementng. Colonel Gowan announced tha
the party were then 34OO feet under LAX,
Michigan. Bits of clay were pocketed a
trophies, and the party retraced their steps.
The cars were taken at the first chambe,
where the party left them, and off went tn
train in the direction of the Shaft, at the raj,

paused when the train was at its creates
speed. The cars ran upon the animal
heels, and those in the forward car had the
pleasure of receiving him into their laps
nearly frightened out of his mulish wits
Colonel Gowan, the conductor of the train
got out and went ahead to see what had
frightened the locomotive" shout told
the party that some joke was in store for
them. He returned to the cars with Sena-
tor Chambers hat, which had been blown
off and left on the track during the outward
voyage. The mule was not used to such a
strange sight and nearly caused an accident
to the passengers.
The party soon emerged into the light of
open day and congratulated each other on
the success of the trip, disrobed, and put on
their usual habiments.

Wool and Woolen Manufactures in Cali
fnrnia

While the Missions of California were in
a prosperous condition, under the dominion
of Spain, and the management of the Fran
ciscan frars, great numbers of sheep were
bred, aud the Indians OF every mission were
required to weave the blankets and hannels
necessary for their own clothing and bedding
The wool was of the coarsest quality; the
looms were ruder; the goods woven were no,
made to please the eye. Nevertheless the
manufacture was established and maintained
on large scale for half a century. The
herds were killed and looms abandoned
when the civil authorities seized and plum
dered the missions, and the wool of the few
sheep surviving had no value. Several years
after the discovery Of gold. mutton had be-
come great rarity, and large herds of
sheep, numbering in several cases as many as
fifty thousand head, were repeatedly brought
from New Mexico. These we're, however,
animals of the poorest quality, and were
brought rather for their meat than their
wool.
In 1853 the breeding of sheep for their
wool WAS first undertaken in American Cali,
tornia by Colonel Hollister, who commenced
in poverty and soon made fortune at the
business, and his success was followed by
that of number of others. Now. the breed
ing of sheep is an important part of the acri,
cultural industry of the State. The annual
production of wool is about seven million
pounds, the average quality is about half me.
rino, and the average net yield to the farmer
Is about II cents per pound. The quality
OF the wool is improving every year, as the
blood of the herds is brought nearer the pure
merno. The Spanish sheep furnished the
original stock but the Spanish blood is rap
idly decreasing.
The California wool is classed as very dir.
ty 10y manufacturers. The dirt which gets
into the fleece when they lie down, the dust
which settles on them while they run about
In herds, and the abundant secretions of
greasy perspraton from their skin, render
wool dirty in every country, but the dust is
peculiarly abundant here, and there are no
summer rains TO wash out the grease. In
Europe and the Atlantic States the farmers
wash their sheep before shearipg; here they
40 not. The average amount of dirt in a
fleece is about fifty per cent, but the manu-
facturer must take the risk of larger per
centage, so he fixes his price accordingy.-
Besides the dirt and grease, our Californian
wool is injured by the presence of the clover
burr, hard, thorny little ball, the size of
pea, which grows on one of the chief forage
plants OF the country, and attaches itself so
TO the wool. These burrs in the fall, as
brown as the earth, cover the southern val
leys, and possessing rich nutriment, they
enable sheep to fatten on land that, to the
inexperienced eye, looks as barren as bare
sand. These burrs stick in the wool like
the seed in the fibre Of the cotton, and must
be removed by a gin sling. They are espe
