Here are Two matters of a theO

lustrate phases of belief az the

is of two old Texas rangers who

Clay Pipes.

ViOVtVN iUCO q WV uhtvnSsscOO
frame building on the corner OF
Calnpau avenue and Franklin
street, anu witnessed for the first
time in bis eventful life the opera
ton Of making clay pipes. AS
the fact of the existence of a clay
pipe factory in Detroit has never
yet been published, a few words
about the modus ~operandi of pipe
making will not be out of place.
All the clay used il purchased at
Baltimore and costs from 800 to
500 per car load. 1t arrives at
the factory in hard, dry Jumps,
and must be thoroughly 80 liked in
a big tub or tank before it is
ready for use. The soft clay il
then rolled and kneaded aud mix
ed together until it TO, ms a solid
mass without any Jumps.
Six men sit around a table with
a lot.of CLAMP clay within easy
reach. Grasping a lump in each
hand the workman rolls it back
and forth Oh the table, shaping it
with his hand until it resembles a
pipe, and then laying it ane side
until Il tray full of wet, embryo
pipes has been accumulated. The
tray is then placed Olt doors in
the sun to dry, and after an hour
or two is brought inside by the
same workman, showed into au
iron mould aud pressed into shape
with a quick pull at a lever. The
hole through the pipe is made by
hand with a piece Of wire, we'll
creased. Two girls at an adjoin-
ing table receive the pipes at this
stage of their manufacture and
scrape off the ridges and others
imperfections left 10y the mould.
The wet pipes are then taken
out of the shop and placed in
large crooks or tubs of fire iclay,
called saggers. AS fast as the
saggers are filed they are piled
one above another inside a brick
kiln, and two or three times a
week the kiln is grey and subject
to intense heat for severali hOuts
until the pipes are baked thor
Oughly white. The stem of each
pipe is then coated with a yellow
mixture of shellac, tumerlc and
other subs ance 20 prevent ii
from sticking to the lips, aud the
pipe is ready for shipment in box
es partially filed with saw dust.
A steady workman eau roll and
mould eight gross of pipes a day
and is capable of making $40 .,
$12 per week, if he attends to h,
business. The factory has Il ca
pacity Of turning out $50 to Isl
boxes per week, each box cou
tanning two gross Of pipes. Eve
ry four or FIVE weeks a ten tol
car load Of clay is received from
Baltimore. Almost all clay pipes
are stamped'with the letters I. u.
being the initials of Thos. Dome
", a famous manufacturer Of ella,
pipes in Scotland, many year,
ago. His fame is still perpetual
ed by manufacturers of clay pipe
in Europe and America.-Detroi

The Resignation Of
Mr.. Curtis.

One of the mos accomplished
men in the Republican party is
MIR. GEORGE WILLIAM CURTIS,
we'll known as the editor OF Har-
per's weekly, and the solitary re-.
naming defender of the forlorn
hope Of civil service reform. Mr..
CURTIS is a ready writer, an elo-
quent speaker; and hitherto he
has contrived to seemingly recon
Gle the steady and most abject
service of party with the lofiest
occasional flights of principle.
OF late, however, the doses the
Republicans have administered
have become a little too strong
for Mr.. CURTIs's stomach, and he
has courageously recommended
boiling the nomination of MI.
Cornell.
This created a great distur-
bance in Richmond County, where
Mr.. Curtis was Chairman of the
Republican County Convention.
and led to his resignation was
promptly accepted, almost unani
mously.
1t illustrates of how little i'm
portance a superior intellect and
character, like Mr.. Curtis's, are in
a regular, established political
machine. This gentleman was
| one OF the conscientious anti.slave
ny men who helped build up the
Republican party. Now the AFRO
CANT Mr. Conkling whistles him
down the wind as if he were a
nObody.-New York Sun.

The View from Chapultepec.

A correspondent of the Chicago In
tsr-O Ocean, now travelling with the Mexi-
can excursionists, writes: From this
height the valley looks like q basin,
blocked up at the South by q solitary
mountain that rises, like Ben Lomond,
and cuts of the view Of Lake Zochimil-
CO, and the field Of Cherubusco. On the
west is the rugged Sierra Madre. In the
far distance to the east stretches Lake
Tezcuco, an unbroken mirror, on the
further shore of which the old city of
the same name can be distinctly seen.
To the north is Guadaloupe, with its
sacred crest, while the cities of the
Aztecs and Tacubans fill up the center
Of the picture. To the southeast stand,
cold and grand, PopOcatapetl and
Ixtachuatl, side by side, resting place
for light clouds that float lazily through
the air like the robes Of angels who
might hold court there in silence. To
some, Ori7aya appears the grandest
Of the great peaks Of Mexico, but not
me. Its peak rises sharp and cold from
amidst the lesser mounts, like q men,
Der Of the earth through which the
pulse of life had ceased to throb, so
still and chill with its snowy summit,
pointing always and forever upward to
its home among the skies. The twin
mountains, in sight from Chapultepec,
are more massive and ragged in their
outline. They, too, are always white
capped with eternal snow, carpeted in
purity, as though the Creator had set
apart these spots for His own use,
where the foot Of man might not tread
nor pollute the sanctity of His terrestrial
throne. What must have been the
glory of the scene when the fretful
mountain used to blaze out in angry
fires, and the trembling earth quivered
with the fury Of its roar! But the fires
are sleeping now, only light wreath of
smoke rising now and then to indicate
the latent power that is slumbering
within its depths.
