Ernit Sirnns

A new industry in the United States
is the production of fruit sirups. Its
success has brought these sirups into
competition with French manufactures,
which have heretofore had the markets
of the world. As they are better, they
are preferred in the United States. and
also in the West Indies and South
America. The strawberry, raspberry,
and other fruits of this country are not
only Indigenous to the soil, and there
fore can be produced cheaper, but they
possess far richer flavor and are more
juicy, giving them an advantage over
the fruits which have to be cultivated
by extraordinary efforts in countries to
which they do not naturally belong.
The trade in sirups in this hemisphere
has hitherto amounted to millions of
dollars, which amount has not only gone
out of this country to foreign nations,
but has also been taken away from the
trade of the United States with those
countries which by their near proximity
would be supposed to have preferred
commercial relations with North Amer
lea rather than and other part of the
world. The success of the experiment
bids fair to bring to the United States
large trade, besides driving out of our
markets another of those foreign prod
ucts, the control of the sale of which
has hitherto been held abroad.-SyrG-

A Law Unto Herself.

OF Miss Julia E. Smith, of Glaston-
bury, Ct, whose marriage has been an
nounced, a story is told in Hartford
that suggests her independence. Some
time ago, being stakeholder in one OF
the Hartford banks, she called in, at the
institution month or more before div
idend-time, and said that, being m
town, she would take her dividend then.
The President remarked that no divi-
dend had been declared, and that she
was month ahead of time. Neverthe-
less, she demanded her money. Il
don't think as other people do, sir, she
said; I'm law unto myself, sir, and I'll
take my dividend now" swell, ma'am,
you may be a law unto yourself" was
the answer she got, "but you're not a
law unto me-" and, instead OF getting
her dividend, she got angry. I'D.

How Young Austrian Made Voyage
to America.

Conrad Kanauss, young Austrian,
81 years of age, created a sensation
among the emigrants that were being
transferred yesterday from the Bremen
steamer Weser to Castle Garden. Just
before the emigrant depot was reached
he sought secluded portion of the
deck, opened his chest, and took ont a
suit of male clothing, which be pros
ceeded to put on in place of the
female garments he had worn during
the voyage. He recently quilted Aus,
tris to visit mis- parents in Munich, Ba-
varia, where they had resided for the
LAST ten years. There he met a sailor
friend, who persuaded him to come to
America. He made all his preparations,
and two days before leaving Munich he
applied to the local authorities for a
passport. They refused one on the
ground that he was an Austrian citizen,
and should apply to the authorities of
that country. This caused delay of
four weeks or more, with the probability
of his not getting over, as he is of age to
be drafted into the army. He therefore
assumed the female disguise, in which a
beardless face and small figure favored
him, and travelled from Munich to this
city as the sister OF his sailor companion.

Still With Her Husband.
Plttsburg Letter 10 New York Sun


Annie Moore, the young woman Of
Beaver, this county, who caused SEN
sstion last May by clipping with and
marrying a negro, has been found living
quietly with her negro husband, Frank
Alexander, in the small town of Salem,
Ohio, about seventy-fve miles from
here. Her husband is a rather good.
looking negro, of pleasant address. The
girl says she is contented and happy,
and the only thing she seems anxious
about now is her piano, which her father
gave her some years ago, but which is
still at home. Her father, who is a
brother-in.law of ex-Chief Justice Ag>
new, was terribly scsndalized by her
strange conduct, and has since tried,
though in vain, to have Annie arrested
and sent 10 an insane asylum. For
some time previous to the elopement
Annie had given her parents a great
deal of trouble by her reckless, wsywsrd
conduct, but being an only daughter she
was spoiled by indulgence. She had a
quarrel with her parents on Wednesday
night, May Il, and early on the follow.
ing morning lett her home and met the
negro by an appointment which she had
made the night before. The two went
to Rochester, about mile from Beaver,
to the house of colored clergyman, whe
married them in the presence OF two
white men, whom they had called in to
act as witnesses. The couple then took
the next train back to Beaver, where
the negro hired room in house which
had three rooms only, two of which
were already occupied by negro families.
The reckless girl sent home for hel
trunk, piano and some of the ornaments
of her room, and this was the first init.
nation her mother had of the marriage
The mother tried to persuade the girl to
return to her home, but she refused
Her father, who is q United States store
keeper in Indiana county, and is
wealthy, was not at home at the time
Soon afteFward the couple disappeared
threats having been openly made by tbs
young men of Beaver OF tarring anC
feathering the negro.--Annie is twenty
years old. She is brunette, with larg'
eyes, exceedingly pretty face, and flint
form. Her family is one of the best il

RaiIroads as TeIegraph companies.

The railroad companies interested in

lance of the favors granted. The clause
in the army appropriation bill which au-

to file an Acceptance on the restrictions
and obligations imposed upon the tele-
graph companies by title IS of the re-

How TO Wear Your Shawl,

Cashmere shawls, after being SO long
out of fashion, are once more to be
worn; but, of course, they are to be
put on in a new manner. The square
shawl is to be arranged as a high
scarf on the shoulders, and is to be
fastened with double agrafe of either
precious stones or old silver, and this is
sewn on so that it viii always be in the
same place, exactly as though the
shawl was a mantle. The cashmere,
when draped on the figure, shows a
straight line where it terminates, the
point falling at the back like a cape.
The Queen will shortly publish an Illus
tration of this manner of wearing an
Indian cashmere, as it is difficult to de-
scribe clearly in words. 1t can only be
worn with a trained skirt; therefore,
we shall only see it en- grand toilette

For all mixtures of wool with shoddy
the best and longest merino woods are
now regarded, it appears, as the most
profitable, because they 'fcarry" more of
the short fiber of the wool substitute.
1t is singular, too, what diversities of
use st present characterize this and
other descriptions of wool, in the man.
ufacture of many OF the popular fabrics.
Thus, thin wool coatings are made from
the medium to the finest merino woods ;
ladies' fancy cloaking, from the finest
long merino woods, and, in the case OF
of some varieties, of mohair, or the wool
of the Angora goat; and the finest long
merino combing woods are employed for
gentlemen's worsted eostings. For GER
tain varieties of delaines, coburgs and
csshmeres, ladies' dress goods, with cot
ton warp, medium long merinos are used;
for ladies' "Caledonian" cloakings, a
limited use is made of mixtures of fine
long combings; Italian cloth for Innings,
mohsir lusters, lastings; damasks tor
furniture covering, curtains and table
cloths; reps for furniture and curtains :
webbing for reins and girths, and
for suspenders; bunting for flags, military
sashes, picture cords and tassels, clouds
or nubiss. Ristori showls braids and
binding, all use long English combing OF
Canada wool. This shows how prom.
inently merino wool enters at the pres
ent time, into the composition of the
various makes of wooden goods. siI

The United States is the greatest
misunderstanding country in the world,
and uses annually more raisins than the
whole of Europe. This market is mainly
supplied from Spain, the ra;sins known
as sMalagas" being considered the best.
They come from comparatively mar
row strip of country in the South Of
Spain, which has hitherto been regard
ed as surprising all other regions for
raisins of that character. The annual
yield OF Malaga grapes averages $780,
600 boxes of twenty pounds each. It
sometimes reaches 2,500,000 boxes, and
last season about 100000 boxes were
marketed. OF this enormous yield the
United States takes fully one-half, on
which it pays a duty-as on all other
raisins-of 81 cents per pound. The
American raisins are made from white
grape, the "Muscat of Alexandra" to
the raising of which the soil and climate
of large portion of California are well
adapted. The vine begins to bear
somewhat in the second year, although
the full bearing capacity is not devel-
oped until it is 5 years old, and con-
tinues to bear for about half a century,
and sometimes for seventy-fve years.
In the cultivation of. raisin grapes
American grape-growers have little to
learn from Spain, but, in the curing and
packing of the raisins, lack of expert
ence is still felt. The raising are not
cured by any artificial process, however,
but in comparatively simple manner.
The grapes are laid on gravel-beds, and
are exposed to the sun for ten or twelve
days in August or September, when
they are ready for packing, having
turned from white to brown, and gradu-
ally changed to the familiar dark color
of the raisins of commerce. The white
sugar which is generally found attached
to the raisins sold in the market is en-
tirely a natural product of the grape,
and comes on with age-frst appearing,
as rule, when the raisins are about 2
years old.-Scientitic american.

An Interesting Renaissance.

The gossip about the Napoleons set
aGrift by the tragic occurrence in south
Africa brings up letter from Washing
ton Irving to his niece. He was in
Europe in 1863, and the emperor had
lust been married: "Louis Napoleon
and Eugene Montijo, emperor and em-
press Of the French one of whom 1
have had guest at my cottage on the
Hudson the other whom, when child,
have had on nay knees at Grenada. 1t
seems to cap the climax of the strange
dramas of which Paris has been the
theater during nav lifetime. / have re,
pestedly Thought that each coup de
theatre would be the last that would occur
in my time, but each has been succeeded
by another equally striking. The last l
saw of Eugene Montijo she was one OF
the reigning bellies of Madrid. Am to
live to see the catastrophe of her career,
and the end of this suddenly conjuied-
up empire, which seems to be OF such
stuff as dreams are made of? ! consider
it as liable 10 extrsvagant vicissituies as
one OF Dumas novels" He did not
live to see that catastrophe, but it came.
