The Manufacture Of India Rubber.

The. juice Of the caoutchou tree un
dergoes many curious mutations before
it becomes merchantable sheet. ln {
large building, filled with great irol
troughs and odors far from spicy, manJ
men are at work on the rough rubber
| which is first cut into pieces and ther
partially macerated and washed clear
from impurities, emerging at length IL
the form OF long strips Of q dirty-whitt
color, not unlike fragments of un
bieached Turkish toweling. 1t Is now
ready for the macerating mills, wherein
it is worked up with hot water till 1t as
sumes the appearance Of the chewed In.
dia rubber dear to sch0olb0ys. AS the
macerator slowly revolves, 1t squeezes
from it's capacious jaws q dark-looking
yiscid mass, only to seize it again and
repeat the operation until the material
becomes homogeneous, when 1t is ready
for the cylinders. In these it is
squeezed, under heavy pressure,
through sieves Of exceeding tineness,
which take up every remaining particle
of dirt or grit, and the rubber is now
ready to be rolled into thick or thin
sheets-or applied to cylinders under
which pass miles or silk or cotton cloth,
until after some half dozen applications,
a coating of sufficient thickness to make
it waterproof has been deposited on the
fabric-or to be cast in molds into valves
or buffers. "Washers" and such ''smaIl
beer" are cut out Of the heavy sheets,
which are also employed for making the
mats now SO much in use. These are
produced by a singuarly Beautiful pro-
cess applied TO sheets Of yulcanIzed
fcaoutchouc. This vulcanizing opera
tiOn is simple enough, hconslsting mere
ly of the addition Of quantity of sui
phur-often combined with coIoring
matter-to the wet paste OF rubber, fol-
lowed by baking in large IRON ovens
filed with lime. Charged with sulphur
the rubber is rolled into long bands OF
about half the width Of the proposed
mats. These bands pass on travelling
bed under a machine furnished with
sharp cutters, which fnfiict stabs at
regular distances, anu finally cut of the
band into lengths. These are next
stretched on frame 80 as to tear the
WOUNDS into lozenge-shaped openings,
forming perfect pattern-a process lar
superior in point of economy TO that oil
punching out the interstlces, and thus
involving waste of labor and material.
Stretched OH frames, the mats are duly
baked, and on leaving the oven retain
perfectly the form imposed upon tnem.
10 this process of yulcaniztng, rubber
owes much Of its adaptabilty to many
uses OF modern Life. The addition OF
sulphur, followed by baking in Lime, i'm
parts TO the material the power OF re-
sisting heat, and has extended the area
OF India rubber goods to Lhe torrid zone
Carried step further, this process pro-
duces ebonite, q material OF great hard
ness and density, OF which all kinds ol
articles, useful and ornamental, may be
made, among which may be mentioned
the cheap limitations of jet, which have
the advantage OF being tar more durable
than The hyarocarbon initiated.

A correspondent writes from Naples:
The Campo Santo Becchio, the great
charpel house of Naples, contains three
hundred and sixty-fve pits under q
paved square. Every evening the stone
which covers one of these pits Is re-
moved and the common dead OF the city
for the day are thrown into 1T, without
even q winding sheet to cover them.
The old man, the young child, the rough
lazzaroni aud the tender maiden are
dropped together in enc indiscrimiAate
mass, quick lime is thrown In to con-
sumo the bodies and the pit is sealed for
another year, to be opened at the close.
We waited not to see the revolving scene,
although the city carts were arriving
with the dead; but drove to the Campo
Santo Nuove, the cemetery for the aris-
tocratic dead, and here was surprised
to find burial ground laid out with
such refined taste, shaded with the cy-
press and other trees and adorned with
tombs of the most costly description;
many Of them were In the form OF chap
els. puilt Of fine Italian marble elaDor-
ateiy finished. After what heard OF
the burial Of the dead at Naples and al
ter what / had seen at the Campo
Becchio, it was y relief to enter one that
indicated 90 much refinement OF feeling.

CHERRIES RIPE AND RED.

To robin redbreast, blythe and fat,
"You stolo my cherries, ripe and red;

For work. ing in your vines and corn;
That Is the way earn my bread,
Pray drive me not away with scorns
"My sweetest strain sing for you,
Morning and evening from my croftl"
And then his brown wings shook the dew
In showers from his green organ LOFT,
"Befoie you sing your last adieu,"
said in accents low and soft;
"Sweet robin, eat my cherries red

You fairly earn your daily bread;
Long as you please, blythe bird, remain.
Unless our chOrister is fed,
lie will not cheer us with his strain.

Unharmed ne built his cabin nest.
And there his cailow nestlings four,
Are sheltered under his red breast;
Soon they will sing, for they encore
His solo when he sings the best.

THE administration OF the law, with
all the precautions that can be taken,
will sometimes work great hardship.
A case of this kind has just transpired
in Massachusetts. A murder was COM
mitted, and about the same time one
Thomas Cahill was missed. Detectives
were put upon his track; he was found
in Ireland, arrested and returned to this
country, where he was held on one pre-
tense or another for q long time, with
the belief on the part of the officials that
something would turn up against him.
The more fully the matter was investi-
gated the clearer was his innocence
established, until he was finally dis
charged, and now the papers are unit
in believing that great injustice has been
done him. Besides the vexation and
trouble that was caused him, he has been
put to all expense that took what little
money he could raise, and he is now a
free man, but without penny and with
the shadow following him of having been
arrested and held on charge of murder.
Most of the papers of the State think he
has an action for false imprisonment,
which he should prosecute, and the Bos.
ton Traveller suggests that instead Of
this the Commonwealth, which, through
her agents, has done him this great
wrong, should at once make an appro-
priation for his relief.

LONDON is in perhaps more trouble
concerning her water affairs than Gin
cinAati. While we have ring Of city
employees to fight, London has a combi.
nation of eight water companies which,
with their money and influence, are very
powerful. While we have plenty so1
rather muddywater, London has but about
half enough, and that dosed with the
discharges from her sewers. While Gin
cinnati has the press to help her fight the
ring, London's press gang is quieted by
the manipulations of the eight COM
panies. While we have plenty Of water
for the suppression of fires on all occa-
sions, London's supply is very short and
can only be turned on from plug or hy-
drant by an officer of the company, no
matter how urgent the demand. A short
time ago a gentleman discovered that
the tank at fashionable clubhouse had
about foot OF slimy mud, filled with
animalcules. By further investigation
he found that the point on the
Thames where the water companies
obtained their supply, although for
merly above the city and its sewers,
was not so now, and that nearly million
people live above the points where
the lines of pipes are laid and where the
water Is obtained frem the river; and
that the sewers accommodating this mil.
lion people empty into the river above
where the water for the city is pumped
out. This was published in one of the
papers as communication, but as moth.
ing further was heard from the press,
the people are still drinking theiI
sewerage mixture for want OF some
thing better, and the press! through the
manipulations of the water rings is
still silent. The supply is also very in
adequate both on ordinary occasions and
in case of fire. The property-holders
have, however, petitioned Parliament
and it now seems probable that the Gov.
ernmeut will take the matter under its
own control, and after arranging to pay
the companies q yearly sum make the
,Water-works her own and arrange fol
o good and plentiful supply OF pure
water for her people and for running tht
water and pipes through the houses In
'btead OF ito cistsrns as before.

A SUNDAY paper reporter makes an
estimate of the population Of the city
proper, and, from all sources of intorma-
tion at his command, puts the number
at 285, 900 persons actually residing with
in the corporate limits of the city. Some
months ago STAR reporter made an es-
innate of the number OF persons who re-
side in the suburbs and do business in
Cincinnati. This estimate was made
from the actual number of tickets sold
on the bridges, ferries, railroad lines and
street cars to the suburbs, ,and shows our
outside population to be 10000 people.
According to these two showings which
bear every evidence Of truthfulness,
Cincinnati is really city OF 100000
people.

all are injured, by a continuance of the
fight. There is good deal OF New Eng

another civil war. There is, indeed, but
one way to account for the adoption Of
the srbterfuge or stratagem by Senator
johnson at this time, and that is his desire
to make favor with the Democracy. This
is the reason why he comes to the conclu-
sion that We have stratocracy and not a
democracy. But We can tell him that
Democratic stratagem viii not win
in the next presidential election.
When the Democrats by their re-
bellioIs conduct create necessity for
the the use Of military force in support Of
republican government, the people are
not SO dull as to give ear to the Democratic
cry that the military is not subordinate
to the civil power II the people could
be humbugged in this way it would be
an easy matter for the false Democracy
to get up stupenduous row in every
State in the Union, causing the use Of the
military 20 quell them, and then by
appealing to the people and charging, as
the old public functionary from Tennes-
see has done, that ''the empire is in sight.
reins.ate the Democratic party in power.
But as already said, this Democratic
stratagem will rot win. 1t is very poor
dodge for popularity, as an old public
func:ionary Will find to his sorrow.
