Two Foolhardy Sailors.

The little boat Golden Gate, according
to letter received in Boston, safely ar
rived at the Cape de Verde Islands, sf-
ter an ocean passage of ffty-eight days,
in which the craft proved herself an ex.
cellent sea boat. 1t is to be hoped, how
ever, that this good luck, joined with
good seamanship, will not stimula e
others to cock-boat foolishness. The
Golden Gate is the smallest ship that
ever crossed the ocean, being but 10 feet
long, 81 beam at the water line, % deep,
and of III tons burden. The little
schooner-rigged craft carries rs square
yards of canvas, and is exceedingly well
planned and well built, while her COM
pany. Burrill and Can, are hardy aud
experienced sailors. Nevertheless, she
has undertaken long and perilous voy-
age. From Cape de Verde she is now
on her way to the Cape of Good Hope,
and thence she will cross the Indian
Ocean, which is not the least dangerous
part of her trip, to Melbourne. Sue
cessful or not, these adventurous mari.
ners must be put down as going on q
foolhardy voyage, and they may think
themselves fortunate if they escape the
fate of the miniature ship in which the
Goldsmiths embarked on less hazard

The Wonderful Woven AR.

The Decca musiins of India are among
the most wonderful evidences of the
hand skill of the strange people of the
mysterious east These fabrics, which
are spun and woven entirely by hand,
are the product of obscure and curious
processes unknown to and una taiuable
by the western nations. Like the fabri-
cation of Damascus steel and the making
of camels' hair shawls, they are the mar
wells of ingenuity and skill, and they
illustrate the poetry of cotton. The
most delicate of these fabrics is known
by the name of "woven air." It can
only be made early in the morning and
in the evenings, when the air is full of
moisture and the dew is on the grass.
The processes by which it is woven are
kept secret, and the people who do the
work are compelled first to pass through
long course OF training and imitation
Their delicate wares are of such ethereal
texture as TO be almost invisible, snd
yet are so enduring that they will bear
washing and wear in a wonderful man.

for the use of the ladies of the oriental

The egress from the system Of waste ma

rendered free, without loss of time, when a
blockade is produced by an attack Of consti-

is productive of serious bodily mischief. Jaun-
dice, severe headaches, nausea, dyspepsia, the
usual concomitants OF the malady mentioned,
all indicate that the bodily functions are ma
