Last week, in a town not thous,,,

clothes andtied his horse near n stream
of considerable depth. Men discover.
ed both and soon concluded that some
reckless young man had been drowned.
The subject was thoroughly cauvassed,
and preparations made to drag the
stream fof,the body. "A large crowd
had collected by this time, and the cx.
citement was intense. The proceedings
were stopped by an excited individual
plunging across the bridge, ~sprinsing
on the horse, and galIoping' away. The
inference at once was, that the Young
man had stolen the horse, and several
farmers started immediately in pursuit.
Young mar saw them and whipped up
to fnll speed The race was a close
one for several miles, when he dodged
them by taking a by-path through the
woods. He was again discovered,
however, and again the chase CON,

many new corners With fresh horses.
JPellmell, rough and tumble, the pur,

country, for many miles, creating every,

man neared the residence OF his intcn,

gate, dismounted, and plunged into the
house, as the pursuing party dashed
up, he declaring that they couIdn't
have his license without riding hard

CLorH FROM COTTON STALKS An
ingenious person from New Orleans
has been engaged in making thread
from the stalks Of the cotton plant. 1t
is very, fine. and strong, and looks very
much like fax, being nearly as soft and
pliable. He proposes to make this
thread into cloth. which he says will le
rs strong and durable as that made Of
cotton itself. Forty pounds Of thread
can be made from one hundred and
forty pounds Of stalk. A new factory
will soon be established for the manU-
facturc Of cloth from this substance.
This discovery is not = new one. It
has heen known for several years that
there was a fibrons substance in the
cotton stalk which very much rescm,
'bles fax, but it has never before been
put to practical use. Should this prove
successful, it will double the value Of
the cotton plantations at the South,
The next invention in order, for the De.
velopment of the South, is q method Of
making paper from sugar cane stalks.
Whoever does this ought to make afor-
tune. ,t
