TIE HIGH WATER AT Troy AMI
NICINITY.-On account of the high wa,
ter. the steamer Vanderbilt swung around
with considerable difficulty on Tuesday
evening. She required the aid of the
Golden Gate" and tug to accomplish
the task.
The water i'll the river rose very rap.
idly Tuesday afternoon The George
Mark" continued her trips until the ferry
slips were so deeply flooded that pedestri-
ans could no longer reach the boat.
A bout four o'clock in the afternoon, she
was compelled to haul off. Some incon-
venience resulted to the many members
of the Troy Conference, who were obliged
to cross the river by way of the bridge
in order to attend the Conference session
in West Troy.
On the line Of the Troy Il Boston
railroad the track was washed away near
Williamstown and also near North Pow
nal, Tuesday. The trains were delayed
and the passengers conveyed in wagons
over twelve miles to make connection
with another section of the road.
The water in the river opposite Lam
singburgh is higher than ever before at
this season. Several canal boats lying at
the docks are washed high and dry, and
most of the stoiehouses are completely
inundated. Gen. B. Allen Il Son lost
some cord wood which was piled on the
dock at the foot of North street. Whale
Island is completely covered, as is also a
large portion of Van Schaicks Island

Wool PULiING ESTABLISHMENT

Wool PULiING ESTABLISHMENT
The building of manufactures is one OF
the means whereby town increases Its
prosperity and population. Rutland has
too long laid idle in this respect; but we
are glad to note that present indications
shew that our people are waking up to
this important subject. The Wool Full
ing Establishment of Messrs. Hall, Dunn,
Warren & Co, at Center Rutland, is doing
good business, employing ten hands,
and sending off each week to Lowell,
Worcester and Boston, over two tons OF
picked and sorted wool. We witnessed,
yesterday, the m0duS operaAdt of this i'm
portant branch Of business. The pelts
from the sheep are first put into vat, OF
which they have four, each one holding
some 250 pelts water is then pumped
upon them from the creek by means Of
FIVE horse steam engine. They lay in
these watts somewhere in the neighborhood
OF three days, when they are taken and
Thoroughly washed, one at a time, by means
of hose connected with the steam en-
CINE After being thoroughly cleaned
they are "hcshed,' j. G. all flesh which
may have been left Upon them when
killed is scrapod off with knife made for
the purpose. This 'llcshiug' process
being gone through with, they are taken
to the sweat" room, which is close
room capable of holding about 2OOO pclts,
and remain about three days, the otfiuvia
arising from ~i.i.h renders the pulling of
the wool from them very easy. The pull
ing of the wool is very particular, there
being four grades, which is sorted as
pulled The skins when deprived Of wool
are cleaned with lime water in large
vat, in phiuh large wheel revolves, by
means Of which The skins are considerably
stirred up. All this work which we have
described is done upon the first or base
m,nt floor Above this floor there are
four more, three Of which are latticed and
one tight. Every oneof these four floors
is covered win Eoal. a.ah af different
grade, which is raked over twice day,
and remain, thus for about Is hours on
an average, when il j. packed in bales and
sent to market
The firm has wool picker, with which
one grade OF wool is picked. the rest being
picked elsewhere About 25O skins are
thus manipulated each day The skins
after cleansing with lime, are taken by
them and tanned, and when tanned sent
to different markets throughout our coun-
try
Ia connection with this establishment,
but i'll another building, the firm has
country store, whore can be found almost
every thing needed Tor the necessities Of
family.
We are indebted to the courtesy Of Mr.
J. " Hail.. one Of the members Of the
firm, for hi- kindness in showing us
around and answering our numerous
questions. While We were there, ye>ter-
day, the high water in the creek, upon
the banks Of which their manufactory
stands, was playing >ad havoc, the engine
standing in aLoat a foot Of water, and in
only small force Of the
workmen employed were At work
