AZ Why in the name of common
sense do not the authorities of the great
state of Pennsylvania, put stop to The
mining disturbances in the coal regions ?
The murders and burnings and breaches of

if the civil authorities are not strong

A LION STORY.

A story is told of lion which was br ,ught
from India, and who on the passage grew
very fond of sailor who had charge of him.
His name was "Nero." On being shut up
in cage in London, he grew sulky, and
was very fierce when any one came near him,
so that it was dangerous even for his keeper
to approach him.
One day, a few weeks after Nero bad been
shut up in his new prison, party of sailors
visited the menag gerie, and were worned by
the keeper not to go near the lion, tho every
now and then grow ed savagely at those who
were looking at him. All at once one
of these sailors ran up to the cage, and
thrusting in his hand, cried out, "What
old shipmate. don't you know me? What
cheer, old Nero, my lad p
The lion instantly left off feeding and
growing, sprang up to the bars of the cage,
and put ont his nose between them. Jack
patted him on the head, and the lion rubbed
his hand with his whiSkers like cat, show
ing evident signs Of pleasure.
"Ah!' said Jack, turning to the keeper
and spectators, who stood frightened and in
astonishment. "Nero and | were once ship
mates, and you see he isn't like some folks
he don't forget an old friend.''

TUE RATTAN MANUFACTURED.

a.
Rattan comes from the Moluccas-prin1
cipally from Singapore, Pedang. Penang,
Samarang and ST. Simon's Bay. OF all the
rattan collected in the East, the United
States consumes three quarters of the total
product the imports amounting now to
something more than $4,000 pounds.
There are rattans and rattans, and no less
than ten different grades can be found,
which vary in price from two cents up to
ten cents a pound. The first quality should
be of bright color, of straw yellow: but.
in addition, must be supple, and not
"sticky,''-a trade word, meaning dull and
wanting in elasticity. 1t requires great
deal of experience to decide what is good
rattan, or the kinds which will work up
best for practicular sorts Of go d.. The very
choicest rattan comes from Besjamassing.
Both outside and inside have their special
uses. The Calamus Rotang belongs to
that peculiar species of palm which secretes
in its cuticle very considerable amount of
silica, while it's inside is made up of tough
and fbrous flaments. The outside, with
the smooth natural varnish, when stripped
off by particular machinery, is used for
seating chairs, There is a single factory in
the United States which turns out daily
enough chair-cane to cover 10000 chairs.
The inside of the rattan is employed in a
variety of ways. 1t is shaped by machinery
either round or fiat, and so worked up into
innumerabe articles. Baskets, brooms,
mats, mating, are all made from the inside
of the rattan, and an immence quantity Of
it is worked around demijohns. Both the
inside and outside of the rattan are employed
in the manufacture of furniture. This
branch Of industry we have undoubtedly
copied with Chinese accuracy from India.
Perhaps even with the addition of our num-
rous mechanical helps we have but very
little improved on the models as to appear
ance or solidity There l. an exquisite COM
fort, a luxurious ease, about a real rattan
chase lounge. such as is made at Singapore,
that We can hardly equal. Split rattan is
made up into some half dozen different sizes,
and is then sold by the 1000 feet. The
finest qualities of rattan are also used by
whip-makers. This large and constantly
increasing business may be estimated by the
fact that one factory in New England alone
employs 900 operatives, and that the total
number Of people working in rattan (the
schoclmasters excluded) is fully 1870. The
capital used in the manufacture of rattan
we are Informed. is about $4,000 900.
