The expectation of American leather
has recently assumed very large proper
tions though popular attention has been
less directed to it than to more snowy
articles, the business having grown
quietly and steadily for the past eight
years. All parts Of Europe are opening
to the American leather trade, France
alone excepted. Duties there are pro-
hibitory, but with reciprocity treaty,
which is now considered possible, it is
believed by American leather dealers we
would export heavily. We are already
making large shipments to England and
the Continent of finished upper leather,
called "pebbled grain," "buff splits
leather"
England was hard market for Ameri-
can leather to obtain a foothold in, but
it has at last secured it, especially for
hemlock, against which there was con-
siderable prejudice on account of its
color. When we come to the Contin-
entail trade, American tanners have an
advantage in this respect: that from a
given number of dry hides we can turn
out larger per centage of finished leath-
er than the local manufacturers The
Germans, for example, from 100 pounds
will make from 1870 to 140, while the
Americans will produce from an equal
quantity no less than 1866 to lS0 pounds,
showing difference of 65 to so per cent.
in favor of the latter, all owing
to the abundance and cheapness Of
American bark as compared with the
tanning materials available to the for
eign manufacturer. Assuming that the
cost of labor is the same in either case,
the Germans pay two or three times as
much for the materials used in tanning.
A gentleman from Christiana who was
recently in New York City, frankly adj
mitted that they could not compete. As
for more distant markets, we are making
good progress in sending leather to
Northern Italy, Austria and Southeastern
Europe, and our product finds its way
down into Turkey.

Only One EKnsslar,
[Harper's hlagazine.l


When Hon. Levi Woodbury. was Sec
retary Of the Treasury under Jackson,
he and Hasslar could not agree as to the
compensation to be allowed to the Su-
perintendent, and Hasslar was referred
to the President, at whose discretion the
law placed the settlement Of the dis
pute.
$50, Mr.. Hasslar, it appears that the
Secretary and you can not agree about
this matter" remarked Jackson, when
Hasslar had stated his case in his usual
emphatic style.
"No, sir; We can't"
"Well, how much do you really think
you ought to have"
"Six thousand dollars, sir"
"Why, Mr.. Hasslar, that is as much as
Mr.. Woodbury., my Secretary of the Treas
ury, himself receives"
"Mr. Voodburyl screamed Hasslar,
rising from his chair and vibrating his
long forefnger toward his heart,
"Pl-e-e-n-ty Mr.. Voodburys, pl-e-e-n-ty
Mr. Every ybodys for Secretary of the
Treasury; v-o-ne, v-o-ne Mr.. Hasslar for
de head of de coast survey" and, erect
ing himself in a naughty attitude, he
looked down upon Jackson in supreme
scorn at his daring comparison.
President Jackson, sympathizing with
a character having some traits in com.
mon with his own, granted Hasslar's de
mand, and at the close of the next Cabi-
net meeting told the joke, to the great
entertainment of the gentlemen present.

Last night about half-past o'clock,
Reuben Jones. colored man, entered AL
bert Johnson's restaurant, No. S6 East
Sixth street, and called for pigs feet. Not
being satisfied with them, he quarreled
with the proprietor for serving him with
inferior food Johnson picked him up and
threw him outside onto the pavement, But
he didn't stay there. He came rushing back
at johnson with his hand in his hip pocket
as though in the effort to draw pistol.
The hash-house proprietor beat hima it,
however, by drawing his pop first, and
blazing away at Jones three or four times.
Jones was not hit by any of the bullets,
but a man named Henry Wilson, who was
standing by was struck in the arm by one
of the stray missiles. johnson was arrested,
but this morning. no prosecuting witness
appearing against him, he was discharged.

burning the EOdy of a Digger.

loacralnCnto (Cal.) RECORD Union.
"Ned," a Digger Indian, was found
dead alongside the railroad track near
Auburn last Wednesday, having appa-
rently fallen from the platform of car
and fractured his skull. His friends
being notified, they placed the remains
upon horse and conveyed them to Clip
per Gap, where they were duly cremated
in the manner customary with the red
men of that section. The funeral pile,
which is built of wood to height of
about four feet, is kept burning about
five hours, during which time relatives
and friends place upon it such articles as
they desire to contribute to aid the de-
ceased when he shall have arrived at the
happy hunting grounds-one gives
blanket, another bow and arrow, an
other saddle, etc.
When the flesh has all been consumed,
and only the bones remain, these are
raked together and fire kept burning
about them until they also become ashes.
When the fire finally dies out the ashes
are all collected, taken to the burial
ground and inferred, little sugar-loaf
shaped mound being erected over them.
The female relatives of the deceased, as
evidence of mourning, smear their faces
and heads with tar-the extent of the
application indicating the closeness of
their relationship-and this is left until
it naturally wears off. There was large
attendance upon "Neds" funeral, every
train arriving at the gap bringing a num-
Der of bucks and squaws. AS they are
allowed to ride free, the train men usu-
ally press the bucks into service when it
is necessary to wood up, but on such an
occasion as this they sturdily refuse,
replying, "No work; funeral to-day"
