sured. The promise of plainness, made
in the carly summer, will be strictly kept.

in their stead How our weary and over

that seems impossible of realization.
1t is not improbable that the newly

Plainness of fabric, no less than of
fashion, is to be the rule. New goods,
different from any yet produced, will
soon be shown, and new colors or rather
new shades, are imminent The tints and

New York statistics show that the
proportion of business and professional
men who become insane is largest among
bankers and stock spectators; bookkeep-

in this country; then lawyers, followed
by retired merchants, clergymen and jour

MUSLINS AND HOW THEY ARR MADE.

1t is frequently said that English ant
French muslins now produced by machin
cry, rival in fineness of texture and beauty
OF finish those woven in the East. But II
is not true. A native woman with her
fingers and spindle alone, and a native
man with his toes and bamboo loom alone
will spin a thread and finish piece of
muslin which cannot. by the application
of the most delicate machinery be pro-
duced outside of India. There is one
quality of Decca muslin, for example,
which is termed woven air." 1t is made
only for kings daughters. So short is the
staple of the raw material, and so brittle
its fibres, that 1t must be spun by a woman
under twenty five and before the dew has
left the grass in the morning. As SUBJ
sttute for natural moisture, the evapora-
ton of water from shallow pan is some
times used, but the quality of the work in
that case is inferior. And yet, though the
most delicate and finest of fabrics, a piece
four yards in length by one yard in width,
weighing less than one ounce avoirdupois
often. it is exceedingly durable, and will
wash. Since the disappearance of many
of the native rulers of India, this "even-
ing dew" as it is also called, is not large
ly made; but as there are those who pay
ten and twelve dollars yard for it, the
art is not likely to be lost. The profess
sional story tellers of the East, sway
ing their bodies to the cadence of their
voice, will tell you in rythmical Hindos-
tanee of the anger of Aurungzebe with
his daughter because her arms could be
seen through the seven japmas she had on
and OF the weaver who was banished from
Decca because his cow. unable from its
fineness to see the piece of Abroyan which
was spread upon the heritage, ate up six

A Review of the Address OF the state

An article appeared in the Free Press
and Times of lruesday, Oct. 2lst, signed
by the State Board of Education, and adj
dressed to the people of Vermont. While
it is not our power to criticise their action
few points touched upon should, in JUS
tice to the people, be made clear. 1t is
evident that the Board has yet more to
learn about the matter, and that they have
been misnformed Many of the state
journals, which represent the feelings of Il
large majority of the people of Vermont
have: from time to time, published articles
hostile to DR.. French and his dgehcy work.
The State Board have taken those articles
hoHte, and in their address to the people"
have accused the publishers ut text books
supplanted by them, with having set these
articles ailoat to prejudice the public
against the Board. This is not true Many
of the most able men in the state have
tahen up the pen to expose the tricks prac-
ticed upon the people by interested parties

THE implacable interviewer has been

meager result, as appears from the columns
of the New York Times of yesterday
" Ex-Governor Henry A. Wise appalled,
an interviewer the other day by admitting
that it would take book, and pretty
big one at that, to contain his opinions
about the present condition of the country.
Speaking generally, however, he said he
would not touch either of the existing
political parties with pair Of tongs, they
are SO corrupt; that A. II. II. Stuart's
proposition to colonize the negroes is bar
barous, impracticable, and absurd that
the negroes are the most steady. indus
trious, and capable laborers the South could
get; that Hunters idea that the general
government should pay for the liberated
slaves is absurd that he would like to
have the government build the James
River and Kanawha canal; and that il
Grant would only bring about specie pay
ment at once he would drop on his knees to
him. He thought the vote in Virginia on
Tuesday would be close and the result
doubtful, but he appeared utterly indiffer-
ent as TO which party prevailed"
