Give the Women Work.
Charlotte Home.

IHAIiOtlc hOAic.
The cry is coming up even here from
every part of this once happy land, the
paradise of women where plenty once
resigned, give US work, as we must
struggle for existence. Agricultural
pursuits engross the greater proper
ton of our population, hence there are
but few manufactures suited to the
feeble strength of women and children.
But still there are many manufactures
of small things that might be estab-
lished at a small cost. which might give
employment to thousands. Straw plat
ing for example, is a light and easy
work: 5000. 600 straw hats were made
in Massachusetts in 1865, giving en-
ployment 20 ten thousand OF her people
Rye straw is generally used after be
ing cut. soaked in water and then dried.
1t is said that in Philadelphia $4,000
900 are annually a in straw goods
alone, and 81 to s. is made per week
by the operators. Willows which grow
ablndantly in the South, might be con-
verted into baskets by the women and
children. For the fiuer kinds of bas-
kets some instructions with a set of
tools costing about 50, would be neces-
sary. Canning fruits, making pre-
serves. ~jellies, pickles, and syrups for
sale, is another branch OF industry
in which females might be employed to
great advantage, not only themselves,
but 20 the proprietor of such an estab-
hshment. Many such are established
north of this, by which large fortunes
are annually made, giving employment
to thousands of Judgment, helpless wo-
men. In this region and the South
generally, all our fruits are wasted at
ter what are consumed on the planta-
tations, exec pts such apples as can be
kept over during the winter.

A Sunday Fire in Wilmington.

49,
At Bis p. m. Sunday fire was discov-
cred in the Review Office. Eight min
utes after the alarm was sounded, the
Little Giant company appeared on the
scene, followed almost Immediately by
the Cape Fear engine and the Hook and
Ladder company. The Little Giant
had the first steam, and in a short
time there was nothing left of the fire
but smoke.
The fire originated in the store of J..
w. Alderman Il Co., but its origin is
not known. This firm estimates it's
loss at 81, 500, which was covered by an
insurance of 81, 900 in the Fire Associa-
ton of Philadelphia and $500 in the
Springfield, of Springfield, Mass.
Mr.. John H. Strauss, who keeps \
grocery in the same building, had his
stock damaged to the amount of 5000.
Hls loss Is fully covered by an insurance
OF Sl,5UO In the Hartford, and 81, 800 in
the Queen of Liverpool. Messrs.
Atkinson d Manning represent all the
companies above named.
Up stairs u friends of the Review
were smoked, scorched aud finally we'll
drenched. Their loss in tie files of the
Journal and the Review, is probably
irreparable, but ther melted lob tvpe.
etc., can be replaced. They, also. have
a good insurance.
In the building, there was stored a
roomtul OF hay. several bales of cotton.

Driving Nails by Machinery.

From the New Zealand Times.
One of the most simple, and at the
same time most ingenious, implements
ON view at the Exhibition is an inven-
ton of a young man in this city, a Mr..
+. Falkner. Ii is called a mail gum
and is used for mailing down flooring
boards. We have seen the implement
in use, aud, SO far as we are able to
Judge, it is quicker 10 its work, and in
sures greater cleanliness than hand nail
ing could do. The appearance is not
unlike a gun 10 shape and is about the
same length. 1t is kept in position by
the foot and knee, and the nail to be
placed (point DOWN in an aperture at
the tep Of tie cer 1t slides down
to the bottom, and then the operator
draws up a rod, and by one downward
stroke of this the nail is clearly driven
into the boards beneath. a practiced
hand, by this simple contrivance. could
do the work of ha'f dozen men. We
believe hat Mr.. Falkner is now i'm
proving upon his invention, and is
making a mail gum which will be self
feeding. We have no doubt that when
the implement comes to be generally
known it will be brought into general
use.

Tie Grandcst Enterprise of
Modern TImes---The Western
n. e.. IL. Il.
Correspondence of the Biblical Recorder

Correspondence of the Biblical Recorder
X This road is
intended to be the shortest line from
the Great West to the Seaboard. When
completed we will have a direct line
from Cincinnati to Morehead City.
This is one of the grandest enterprises
of modern times, and the engineering
is not surpassed by any on the globe.
TIE Appalachian chain here reaches
its highest elevation. No conception
can be formed of the boldness Of the
design to pierce this mighty pile with
the iron horse. 1t was found that the
Western slope was 1900 feet above
the Eastern base, while on the top it
is :, 800 feet above the sea. SO it was
found impossible to get on the Western
side by t%unnelling the mountain unless
a higher elevation could be reached.
This has at last been done. By gradual
approaches, at al average grade OF ITO
feet to the mile. at a distance of ~
miles including curvatures and Zigzags,
crossing and recrossing deep chasms
and gorges along Mill creek, on the sum-
NIT, it reaches the desired elevation
at the big Tunnel. Those who would
like to enjoy the pleasures Of an In
dian Summer, when the varigated hues
of the disappearing foliage enhance
tn magic of the scenery, would never
regret an excursion now to the road.
Arriving at the entrance of the tunnel,
we met with the Governor and others
on a tour of inspection. We Joined
them, and being seated on a fiat or dirt
car, with umbrellas and lamps we
all proceeded to explore this subterra-
mean vault. Streams of water come
pouring from the rocky ceilings above
us, and on all sides, sulphurous smells
greeted our olfactories, reminding us
OF Nirgirs description of his hero's
visit to the realms of Pluto. Far in
the interior the convicts were at work.
The bellows and the forge were
piled by the tawny sons of Vulcan.
The strokes of the heavy sledge, the
sparks and the flashes of light from the
iron brands created feelings of dread
and borrow in the minds Of the yisi-
tors.

An EXCELLENT SELEcrIoS.-The
Democratic County Committee of Hun
tingdon county, met on tho 18th, and
selected r. Milton Speer, Senatorial,
and Col. ]. S. Miller and DIR. McNitc,
Representative Delegates to the next
State Convention, with instructions to
use all honorable means to secure the
nomination of J. Simpson Africa, oi
that borough, for Secretary of Internal
affairs. This is the most appropriate
recommendation that has been made
for this office. Mr., Africa is the Chief
Clerk in tho Office, and is conceded to
be n of the most competent gentle.
men that eve filed that position.
There is no man more competent to
fill that Office, and we hope he will be
nominated by our friends, because he
has the experience and ability to make
a 6rst.class officer.

COOP ADvIcE.-The editor of the
Patriot gives "tbc gentleman from
Bradford some excellent advice, as
follows. Senator Davies of Bradford
county rather peremptorily adjourned
the committee of investigation in or
der that he might attend the Supreme
Court this week. He said he would
not sign the report unless he had an
opportunity Of hearing and seeing the
witnesses, and upon this lofty threat the
committee adjourned to await his sover.
eign pleasure. 1t was not enough that
the Senator from Bradford should
abandon his public duties to attend to
his private affairs, but he must inter.
rupt the proceedings of the committee
for his own personal convenience. Sem
ator Davies knew of bis engagements
in the Supreme Court when he became
q member OF this committee, and had
he declined serving on it a member
equally competent could no doubt
have been found to take his place.
The coolness of his threat not to sign
the report is only equalled by the
weakness of the committee in yielding
TO it. There is not the slightest neces.
sity that he should sign the report,
and the absence of his signature will
hardly detract from its weight and in
hucnce with the public. Senator Da-
vies oyerestimatcs his Importance"

COMMERCIALLY RiGHr.--It will DO
observed by the debate in the United
States Senate, on tho Wallace bond
bill, that some OF the Senators were
opposed to paying more than 1868 per
cent. interest, while other members
favored 1 per cent. The latter were
right. This makes a difference of SO
per cent. in the interest between gov.
eminent and business paper. Hereto.
fore the government has been in com
petition with every business enterprise,
from the fact that it paid Tor the use of
money, all an individual could afford
to pay, for business purposes. Now,
the money lender has two parties to
select from, and may hesitate where to
invest. "Uncle Sam offers him but 4
per cent, while John Smith, who is
running a log job or n farm, offers 6
per cent. Hence the government is
no longer in competition with all bus
mess enterprises, and hard times will
therefore be exchanged for prosperity,
because OF this reduction of govern.
ment interest, while the Saving" in
weston is entirely satisfied with his 4
per cent. Investment.

RIeHr-KnLEp.-A small faction
has turned turned up annually in our
Legislature advocating q law author
izing the purchase of oil school books
with the school funds of the district.
We are glad to chronicle the fact that
this infamous measure was defeated in
the House on the 9th inst. 1t, how.
ever, commanded 10 votes out of the
two hundred members in the House.
II the advocates Of this measure could
succeed in their undertaking, a year
would not clapsc until they would ad.
vocate the purchase of clothing and
boots and shoes for the school children
out of the taxes. 1t is just as homes,
to advocate the purchase OF a pair oil
shoes for a pupil out OF the common
fund, as a book.

THE LONG BoNDs.--Thc two ab.
sorbing measures before the present
Congress, have been "the Bland sill.
yer Bill" in the House, and "the Wal.
lace Bond Bill" in the Senate. The
former, as our readers are aware, pass
ed both Houses, was vetoed by Hayes,
and passed again over the veto. The
latter bill has passed the Senate unani.
mously and is now before the House.
For the purpose of enlightening onr
readers upon these two vital subjects, we
published elaborate debates on the
"Silyer Bill" and we this week begin
the debate in tho Senate on "the Wal.
lace Bond Bill" 1t will be observed
by the debate found on our first page,
that the leading Senators of both par.
ties participated in the debate. Some
threatened to vote against it if their
peculiar "Bourbon" views were not in.
corporatcd in the bill yet, upon its
final passage, no member was suhl.
GENTLY opposed to it to call for the
yeas and nays, and ii therefore passed
the Senate unanimously. Senator Wal.
laco's constituents have a right to feel
proud oftheir representative. If he is
mistaken in his measure, who in the
United States Senate is not? W. may
be a little enthusiastic on this subject,
but we expect TO see dce hundred mill.
ions of these bonds issued within the
next three years.

"THou ART THE'MAN,"-The editor
of the Pittsburg Telegraph states it in
this way "There is something re.
markable in the manner of tho ad-
lournment of the committee which is
investigating the Union Line tax
swindle. When Corporation Clerk
Bayard was about to give facts under
oath, which were damaging to the Au.
ditor General, Attorney General, and
Treasurer, Herr grew nervous, the
whole committee were stricken with
dismay, and Senator Dawes, Chair
man, suddenly sprang to his feet and
declared that he must take leave Of
absence for a week, and that if the
committee dared to meet in the mean.
time he would not sign the report. SO
this embarrassing committee has ad.
journed 70 meet at the call of a chair
man who has manifested a positive de-
termination not to permit anything to
transpirdh Injurious to the Democratic.
Republican ring, otherwise known as
the Camerons. The action of Senator
Davies had a meaning so obvious that
it has aroused the Indignation ofevery-
body who does not wear the ring
collar.

STILL FOR WAR.--The Turks are
still purchasing war material, although
there has been . great deal of peace
talk. A dispatch from New Haven,
on the 18th, says; "The English
steamer Remus, which has been here
for some weeks taking in a cargo of
cartridges and cartridge machinery for
the Turkish Government, has dropped
cut of the harbor, and sailed last night
tor Constantihople." Reader, is it not
very strange that no American vessel
"a be found any more to carry u
goods to Europe and elsewhere? It's
disgraceful to our mechanics, and very
humiliating to all as u nation. If the
policy of the Federal Government is
not changed, we would not be surprised

roads, too. What a spectacle Tor
