The Manufacture of Perfumery.

That branch OF chemistry called per-
fumery is new industry on this coast.
but with the ample facilities here for its
manufacture it will become i'll time of
very great Importance. The extensive
flower farms i'll the neighborhood of Nice.
Grasse, Montpelier and Cannes in France:
Adrianople, Broussa and USlak in Tur-
key: and Micham in England, in a meas
IRE indicate its Importance in the world.
In the East, varieties Of herbs are grown
that are used to a considerable extent in
pharmacy, but the planting of flowers by
the acre for perfumery purposes is I'M
known in this country. The pcrfumcry
manufactured here is from the produce
of flowers imported from Europe. and
comes here in the shape of fat or sort
of tallow There is only one firm in this
city engaged i'll its manufacture at pres
average of one hundred gross of bottles
per week. though the production varies
with the demand. 1t is entirely for home
CDnNtllpti lliouen there WAS recently
opened IL small expert trade with Mexico.
Flowers are not used here in their uatu-
raj state. as they are not to be had
Neither could they very well be imported
in their natural condition. on account of
the expense attending, and, moreover. in
their tranSportatlona large percentage of
their fragrance would be lost. There is
no reason why the cultivation of flowers.
flower farming proper. could not be made
an important industry here. There is no
one engaged in it at present. and it might
very well ba introduced. Wherever the
raw material is to be obtained protitablv,
there manufactures spring up and no
where do flowers grew more luxuriantly
than in this State. To convey an idea of
the extent of the manufacture of per-
fumery. it may be said that British India
and Europe consume annually, at the
very lowest estimate, 80. 900 gallons of
perfumed spirits. The large perfumers
of Grasse and Paris employ annually in
their manufactures So pounds of rose
blossoms, 60.O0 pounds cassia flowers.
30. 900 pounds rose leaves. 30 900 pounds
jasmine. 10000 pounds violets, 2000O
pounds tube roses, 20. 900 pounds lilacS,
beside great quantities of rosemary. cit
ron, minoe, lemon, thyme, and many
odorous plants. The quantity of odorif-
ereus substances used in this way Is GER
tainly very great. and beyond the conccr-
ton of most people. Francisco Bul-

MONTGOMERY BLAIR AT HOME.

The people of Washington will remem-
Der the threatening days in July, 1864.
when the city was defenceless, and a
large force of rebels under Early and
Breckenridge was not ten miles distant
from the capital. No one now denies
that the army could have marched in I'M
impeded. The Sixth Corps of the Army
Of the Potomac was Ell route to defend
the city, but it was not quick enough
The rebel army was halted at Silver
Springs, the country residence of the
elder Blair. and also of Montgomery
Blair. Upon the approach of the army
the families of both fled to Washington
The rebel officers sought the houses and
found i'll the cellar of Frank Z. Blair's
house a barrel of whisky. This did the
business. Nearly every officer became
drunk, and many of the men were in a
like condition. Such an orgie was never
known. The dresses of the ladies were
taken possession of, and in them the Off
GERS masqueradcd the whole night long
falling into drunken slumber in the
morning. and unable to do any duty
whatever Early and Breckenridge, rid
ing up i'll the morning, saw the situation
and merely said: 1T is too Late and
Washington was not taken possession of.
With what joy did the officers of the gov
eminent receive the gallant Sixth Corps
as it marched through the city that morn
ing. The rebels were soon III retreat
and thus a barrel of whisky saved great
city. There is no doubt of this story,
for Mr.. Montgomery Blair himself con
firms it.
Judge Blair is now sixty-seven years
old, and his life has been very active
one. Fortune has particularly favored
him, and he is forced to continue i'll the
practice of the law. Although he is still
as hale and hearty us man of fifty, it is
yet Il matter OF regret to him that he
cannot turn his attention to Il literary
work which he has had in mind for many
years. When General jackson died he
left to Frank p Blair, (Montgomery'
lather) all his manuscripts, letters and
documents Tor the purpose of preparing
papers for many years, the elder Blair
was unable to do the work. and when he
died he gave all the papers, filling six
big trunks, to his son Montgomery. The
latter now has these valuable relics, to-
gcther with all the very interesting
papers Of the elder Blair, but he is um-
able to make use of them for want of
time, as he cannot afford to leave his law
Practice. He says the records and papers
are OF the greatest interest. They could
not be otherwise.
The great central idea of the Bairs
has been love for the Union. This over
topped all other considerations. 1t be-
gan before the year 80 and has lasted
all the national changes They
were all slave owners, but for four gen
erations they have been anti-slavery in
principle. They always taught their
slaves to read and write, and never sold
them. Some of the former slaves are
with Judge Blair on monthly wages.
