Editors R4A1pd Mfad,-The south.
crn province, Of the empire are at present
greatly interested in the result Of the
breeding Of the silk,wom, which is now
nearly completed, The yield, though not
quite satisfactory, is, however, better than
was expected, two-thirds Of the worms
having safely finished their cocoons in
many places, However uuimportant thi,
branch 81 industry may at first appear
TO the rcadtr abroad, it i, nevertheless one
Of the vital points Of French commerce
and manufacture; for ii is net only the
eultiyator Of the silk worm along the coast
Of the Mediterranean, but more partieu-
larly the manufacturer at Lyons and the
thousands Of workmcn employed in the
vast factories Of that city, who are direct.
ly interested in the yield Of the raw silk,
The export of tho manufactured article is
one Of the main branches Of industry in
this country; no wonder, therefore, ii the
business community look with an anxious
eye to the yearly result OF the cultivation
Of the.silk worm, All accounts Of the har-
vest continue to be favorable, though some
parts of the south Of France are suffering
severely for want Of water. In the town
Of Mines nearly all the wells are dry,
and the few that continue To give water
are every morning crowded with people,
who wait a long time before they can pro-
cure enough for daily use The late fam
inc has opened the eyes of many natives
10 the necessity of working, so as not to
starve.
Thus am informed that the Chabyles
have responded to an appeal from the au-
thorities, and are coming in crowds 10
help gather the harvest ON the plains.
An interesting discovery has lately been
made by some railroad laborers near Cha .
Ions. At three feet below the surface Of
the ground IS skeletons were found in
