The Government Mills.

The manufacture of government pa
per at Glen Mile, Chester county, will
soon terminate. The work on the four
per cent. bonds will be completed on or
before the middle Of the present month,
when the lower mill will be closed. A
later contract for internal revenue pa
per will keep the upper mill open until
August 1st, when both will be stopped
indefinitely, a state of affairs much to be
regretted, as st will throw many indus
trIous workmen out of employ ment
There is no other cause for this stop
page except large surplus of material
ON hand at Washington, and the fact
that coin is now largely taking the
place of paper. So far as greenhack cur
rency is concerned, James NJ. Wilcox is
the inventor and patentee of the local
lZed fibre" of paper used for that pur.
pose, and which has been officially adopt
ed by Congress. hence, when more OF il
is to be made, Glenn Mills will be tn,
place of its production.
