4 Car Load of silk Worms Eggs.

3Prom the Chicago Times, December 26.
One of the most valuable cnnsignments
shat ever passed !acrDss the continent" ar
g1ved in Chicago yesterday afternoon. One
freight car contained goods whose value
exceeded s., U0O, 900. The enormous cost
would be in itself circumstance OF note,
Bat tie peculiar character of the goods
gives TO the affair additional interest. The
consignment was car load Of silk worms
eggs, en- route for France. They were pur-
chased in Yokohama by the French govern
gllent and arrived in San Francisco Deem
Der -. Only three days were lost in trans
4erring them to the freight car, and Deem
lser IS the precious packages commenced
s3Ieir traus continental journey.
In this country very few are familiar with
the silk worm, and can have no idea of
the appearance of the eggs. In Eng
land, where the climate is less sub
yeGt to extremes of temperature, the
>alsworm is as common o pet as the canary.
Boys and girls all boast IA box of thriving
si,kworms, and take as much pride in wind
ing off the golden thread from the cocoon as
tue youth of this country in the possession
Of marbles anda5uch toys. The silkworm's
sgg il about one.guartor the size of pins
Eead, and the reader may gain an idea of
Che number Of eggs OF. their way to Paris,
when he learns that on this one car there
are nine and d half tons OF eggs.
The eggs are packed in leaves, layer upon
fayer, and placed in air.tight tin boxes.
v aich are in turn covered with mating.
The car is kept at temperature below the
freezing point, and no light is admitted.
The mating covered boxes are piled on
either side. There is nothing to be seen
there but mating, and the appearance of
the bGxes Is certainly not Indicative of the
value of their contents. This is the first
attempt yet made to import slkworms via
the United States, and If human foresight
4yalls anything there is every reason to
Iuok for success.

Mrs Baldwin, a missionary to China,
gives some interesting facts in regard to the
waTIei, Ut that country. She says girls have
no choice of their husbands; the young glrl
- sold by her parents at the highest price
they CAP obtain for her, until after they are
married. Ii he chooses he can be divorced
from her Cor talking too much; il he becomes
poor or gets tired of her, he sells her again,
In the coolest weather the large-footed
rEcnleE are not allowed to wear stockings,
and can not dress in any other color than
blaek or blue. The manner in which they
make their feet small ia by binding the four
toos under the foot, which they keep bound
Hp Tor about eleven years, when the foot be
comes dead. | have walked through the
sSTo@ts when the women would brush
,ganst my dress SO as TO see my feet. so
<Asn fhaY could tell to what class | be-
longcd. would say to them, II will show
yuu my feet, but do not pull my clothes, as
X ia rude.' When | would expose my feet
- them, they would exclainl: "Why, have
yau no real ladies in America" Ald the
Only way that | could make them believe
ihat we mad, was by telling them that the
woMpn read books like the men, which ut
SeViv astounded them, rs the real Chinese
Vosnan is brought up in the utmost igno-
gaace, ana they only marry in the rich
families, because they know and do SO little,
aud need 80 much waiting upon, that it
takes rich husband to support them. If
you ask Chinese woman how many chill
dren she has, she will give Won only
Tsie number of boys. She has to be
.aalcd the second time how many girls she
has, &c they arc thought SO little OF that, in
IN many cases they are killed "a soon as

1hSt her first cllild was a little girl, and she
jesYEbed to me how size loved the little
ono. MY husband went out she said.
"&nd brought Ii a tub b water. | begged
Aim Ia spare its lie, but he took the little
one and put its head in the water and held
4 { there until it was dead. My second babe
Was Il daughter, ana it was served the same
AS the first. The third was boy; he lived
,tutil he was about four years old, then the
gods got angry and killed him, Then my
hus band died. and ii eat anything that is
1Sse, and if / wear good clothes, my rels-
ttves become angry and treat me harshly.'
sEven in our Christian churches in China
he women are not allowed in the same
room with the men, but are partitioned off
n a lattice-work room.
