A Shawl Factory in Cashmere.

TOIIN b. Ireland, who travelled a long
~ time in India and Cashmere, gives
some curious facts about the manufacture
and cost of real Cashmere scarf or shawl.
While in Cash mere he visited Nook Shah,
who is the best and the greatest manufac-
turer of shawls in that city. The. factory
was a miserable dirty building, the work
room measuring 60 by so feet Here he
found some forty men and boys, of all ages,
from six TO fifty arranged in twos and
threes, at different looms, each one having
loom to himself; for all the most val :
liable shawls are made in looms, in small
pieces according to the pattern, and then
sewed together. The pattern is not put in
colors and squares like our patterns of
worsted work for chair backs, seats or slip
pers, but the directions are written. When
the patterns are made they are all sewed
together At some looms in operation
there appeare d to be four or five hundred
small pins of wood with rolls of different
shades of wooden thread, to be used in diff
ferent parts of the pattern. 1t was aston
ishing to see the dexterity with which the
small children worked these handlooms,
and understood their written directions.
The traveller bought shawl which took
! fifteen men seven months to make; the
workmen received four and Nree,fourM
cents day Mr.. l. says he cannot imagine
where all the one, two and three hundred
dollar shawls come from-certainly not
from Cashmere. Mootki Shah makes none
that could be brought in London or New
York for less than eight or nine hundred
dollars. Our author, upon application to
the trade, would have learned that large
portion of the shawls sold as real India
ones are actually made in France, for tho
Thibet goat was introduced into that coun-
try more than forty years ago, and Cash
mere shawls also initiated with considerable
skill. There was magnificent shawl made
at this factory for Eugenie while Empress
of France. 1t had white ground or
centre, and was the most elegant specimen
of Cashmere work Mootki Shah ever pro-
duced. Thirty men were kept steady at
work on it for nine months. That is, $3.50
days work were bestowed on that one
shawl. The price, when finished, 1900
rupees, or $3.50. Such a shawl would sell
for about 81, 600 in London or New York
the shopkeepers, even if they do not visit a
little when they stay at home.

Space Measuring.

Imagine a railway from here to the sun.
How many hours is the sun from us? Why,
if we were to send baby in an express
train, going necessarily at q hundred miles
an hour without making any stopages, the
baby would grow to be boy-the boy
would grow to be II man-the man would
grow old an die---without seeing the sun,
for it is distant more than a hundred years
from us. But what is this compared to
Neptune's distance Had Adam and Eve
started by our railway at the creation togo
from Neptune to the sun at the rate of fifty
miles an hour, they would not have got
there yet, for Neptune is moro than six
thousand years from the centre of our sys-
tenn. But we are getting into too largo
numbers again we must have some swifter
servant than a railway to measure space for
MS. Light will answer our purpose, for
light travels from the sun to the earth in
eight minutes. Eight minutes, then, coun-
ting by light, are equivalent TO a hundred
years of railway express speed. 1t would
take about four hours to so from the sun
to Neptune. Among the stars we shall find
that the nearest is three year off, count
ing by light.

Gently victimized by two rogues The fel-

while one was negotiating with the man in

CHILDHOOD.
ny GEORGE d. PRENTICE.

'Tis sad yet sweet to listen sa.
To the soft winds gentle swell,
And think we hear the music
Our childhood loved so well;
TO gaze out on the even,
And the boundless fields of air,
And feel again cur boyish wish,
To roam like angels there.
There are many dreams ofgladness
That cling around the past, N
And from the the tomb of feeling,
Old thoughts come thronging fast;
The forms we loved so dearly
In the happy days now gone,
The beautiful and lovely,
So fair to look upon.
Those bright and gentle maidens,
Who seemed so formed for bliss,
Too glorious and too heavenly
For such a world as this
Whose dark, soft eyes seemed swimming
In sea of liquid light;
And whose locks of gold were streaming
O'er brows SO sunny bright.
Like the brightest buds of summer,
They have fallen from the stem,
Yet, oh it is lovely dream,
To fade from earth like them.
And yet the thought is saddening,
To muse on such as they,
And feel that all the beautiful
Are passing swift away
That the fair ones whom we love
Grow to each loving breast,
Like tendrils of the clnging vine,
And perish when they rest.

There is word of plural number
A foe to peace and human slumber
Now any word you chance to take

The word is plural then no more,
And sweet, what bitter was before.

Legal Advertisements.

The attention of attorneys, shcriffs,
clerks, curators, police juries, execu-
tors and all others having legal adver-
tisements to publish, is called to the
fact that there is no longer any "o6icial
Journalist IN the State Of Louisiana!
In most cases, under the law still in
force, public advertisements are neces-
sary; but parties interested can now
exercise their choice of papers in which
advertisements shall appear.
The printing monopoly is dead, and
practically buried. And the legisla-
ture will never dare resurrect the corpse
of the infamous law under which
Democratic papefs have struggled SO
long. 1t has been many a month since
we inserted legal advertisement, and
the robbery has been serious trouble.
We trust our friends will remember
this in the distribution of their favors
hereafter.

4 Body and Mind Disease.

Such is dyspepsia. The stomach and
the brain are too Intimately allied for the
one to suffer without the other, so that
dyspepsia and dependency are insepara-
BILE. 1t may be added, too, that irritation
OF the stomrch is almost invariably ac-
companied bv irritation of the temper.
The invigorating aud tranquilizing
operation Of Hostetter's Bitters is most
powerfully developed in cases of indiges-
is comforting and encouraging. A mild
glow pervades the system, the chronic I'M
easiness in the region of the stomach is los
sened, and the nervous restlessness which
churacter:zes the disease is abated. This
improvement is not transient. 1t is not
succeeded by the return Of the old sympt oms
with superadded force, as is always the
case when unmedicated stimulants are
given for the complaint. Each dose seems
to impart permanent accession of health
hll invigoration: But this not all. The
paration are scarcely secondary in impor-
tance to its tonic virtues. If there is an
overflow of bile, tho secretion is soon
brought within proper limits, and if the
hillary organ is inert and torpid it is toned
and regulated. The effect upon tho dis
charging organs is equally salutary, and
in cases of constipation the cathnrtic action
is just sufficient to produce tho desired
result gradually and without pain. The
Bitters also promote healthy evaporation
from the surface, which is particularly
desirable at this season when sudden spells
of raw, unpleasant weather are apt to
check the natural Precipitation and pro.
duce congestion of the liver, coughs, and
colds. The best safeguard against all dis
eases IS bodily CigOr, and this the great Veg.
etable Restorative especially promotes.

ssRepeAled Forever !"

Referring to the repeal by Warmoth
and his crowd Of the obnoxious laws,
the National Republican pointetily
says:
But the people are aroused and no
trickery will evade the tornado of in
dignation that has just swept away tho
foundations of power. The people are
once more free, and they will maintain
that freedom or perish We know
whereof we speak when we say that
Federal troops will never help him
again, and we utter the voice of the
people Of Louisiana-a voice full of
deep meaning-when we say those
laws are repealed Jorerer!
We feel encouraged to find that the
people are once more regarded by Re-
pablicans Us the legitimate sources of
power, and that they are recognized as
the tribunal of last resort. So far AS
they concerned, "those laws are re-
pealed forever!"
