Cheap Paper.

Among the branches of manufacturing
industry for which the Southern States
have marked and peculiar natural advan-
tages, the business Of paper making begins
to loom up into conspicuous prominence.
Already, in spite ofthe high rates Of freight
against which they must contend, it is no.
torious that some of the Southern paper
mills can undersell in the New York mar
ket all competitors Offering an article Of the
same quality. And, as the consumption OF
paper steadily increases, year by year, it
is not likely that the facilities which the
South possesses for its manufacture will
lack anything that energy or capital can
give TO develope them to the utmost.
There are multitude of Southern plants
that afford excellent fbrous material for
pulp; but aone seems to be attracting 80
much attention just now as The okra stalk.
AN Alabama manufacturing company has
for some time been engaged in experiment
ing in its use, and with eminently satisfao
tory results. It is claimed that the okra
can be bleached to any required degree of
whiteness; that the cost Of reducing it to
"half stuff" and pulp will not, on o consid-
cradle scale, be greater than the cost Of
converting rags into pulp; and that the okra
paper is as soft as rag paper, and almost as
that made from pure linen-thus combining
in one material great desideratum in paper
making-aexibility and strength. The pa
per made of cotton rags requires an admix-
ture of hemp or other material of strong
fibre to give it the requisite strength; but
the okra may be used either as "hard
'sstock," to give strength to any other ma
terial, or by itself alone. twill work well
in combination in any desired proportion
with any other stock, or it may be made to
alternate with rags, as the circumstances
or exigencies of mill may at any time
demand.
1t would seem, then, that the only point
remaining for inquiry is the cost of okra
stalks in comparison with that of other
paper stock. This, of course, cannot be
fully determined without further expert
ment. 1t may be taken for granted, how
ever, that okra can be grown on large
scale very cheaply, and that it can be made
to pay handsome profit to the producer,
and yet be sold to the manufacturer at o
price 30 Low as to enable him to reduce the
cost of the manufactured article to con-
sumers, and "take the market" even from
the manufacturers Of straw and wood paper.
The okra plant is indigenous to the South,
and with soil moderately fertile will grow
luxuriantly. 1t requires little skill to cul-
tivate it. The fruit is valuable and in
creasingly popular article of diet, and if
produced in too large quantities for the
table it will be found an excellent article
of food for cattle and hogs. The seed is
valuable, and will at all times command
ready sale at good prices. 1t is estimated
that the seed product will be ample to pay
the entire expense of cultivating the plant.
We trust that every Southern paper mill will
give the new material speedy and thor
ough trial, and that our contemporaries of
the press, who are 80 deeply interested,
will give the subject their earnest attention.

AMERICAN GIRLS IN ErROPE.-l do not
wish to undcrvalue English beauty. which i
most satisfactory aud enduring, and most ot
which will wash But confess that America u
beauty from New York to New ORLEANS has
spoiled my eyes for any other; aud when ! am
lust getting accustomed 10 the solid English
matrons and maidrrs, like Mr. Hawthorne,
and beginning - like then-along comes a
group at my fair country women on their tray
els and they spoil it MI again. Those dear
Yankee uiris-l fear YOU do not halt aPprecl-
ate them at home Here they admire and en-
W thrm-that il, the men admire lnd the wo-
men envy On the continent they rave about
them. Half dozen American bellies send Il
whole German town distracted. II IL not on
Is their beauty and grace, but their wit, spirit
and happy audacty. The continental customs
favor their triumphs. No girl over there
darps to say her soul is her owu-lct alone her
body. She never goes anywhere without n
never c0nycrses with gentle
maH except to answer a question; she IS of ne
ccssity inspld to the last degree. An Amerl-
can GIRL on the contrary, asserts her freedom,
goes where every one she cares to talk with,
says dm to n German Mt the first introduction
and orders him about just rs she would do at
home. He is overwhelmed, astoundcd but all
the more delighted lie tells his friends that
the beautiful girl he waltzed with said dn to
him, and told him to bring her glass ct wa
ter, which scts them all crazy to be introduced
to her, hear her say du to them, and be made
water-carriers likewise. Next day the whole
town is talking about her and staring at her.
The women are in rage; but the result is the
conviction that America must be great coun-
try, increased immlgration and the consequent
progress of civilization. European Letter.

A HUMAN WONDER.

The occurrence of males covered with me
downv hair is by no means uncommon; but the
most extraordinary example of this deiofmlty
we have ever seen was brought to our once
few DAYS since by two Spanish gentlemen. Inc
subject is dark cOmpleXlOned, rather SNORT
Mexican Indian woman, of about twenty-five
vears of age, aud who, from the singular nature
of her detornlty, and the history that attaches
to her mother, has received the name oi Maria

ar of this woman belonged to the Indian tribe
called the Quiche inhabting the province OF
Soconusco. on the Pacific coast OF Mexico
At the age of twenty-five she became the SER
want of a Spanish family, and ten years aittr-
ward disappeared in the mountains, where sue
remained for several years. A Spanish h'r-
chant SO goes the tale, travelling III that part oil
the country, met an Indian with child, the
subject of this notice, then five years OF age,
and, marking her peculiarly, purchased her.
Both the mother and child are III state OF
uudlty. and the mother informed the gentleman
that it WAS the offspring OF an oufang-"uthhS.
The Spauiard took the child home and reared
if 10 the ace of fifteen, when She made her es-
cane, and sought to make her living by eAhiO-
itiny herself She was recapturcd, and brought

about halfway down both thighs. The surface
