Rnnrernnk MnlI Paper.

Prof. Bernbech, writing to tke Medi-
cal Press, calls attention to the prob
able danger arising from the use Of ul-
srGmsrine wall papers. 1t states that
4 room hung with an ultramarine col
ored paper gave out most disagree-
able smell Of sulphuretted hydrogen,
the source Of which for some time eS-
capped detection, Eventually, however,
close examination was made Of the
paper, whieh led to the conclusion that
lhe deep blue wall paper was slowly
undergoing a process of decomposition
unier the iufuenee Of the alum in the
pRs:e used in hanging. This appeared
10 be confirmed, for on sleeping q piece
of the paper in very dilute solution
Of alum it gave of sufficient sulphuret'
Ied hydrogen to be quite perceptible To
the nose and to blacken led paper.

Fans.

The fan ia OF very ancient origin.
The papyruS ~as oRe Of the first from
which isns we're made. In ancient
Greece, the first faGs used we're made Of
branches Of myrtle, acacia, and plane
tree. 1t was net till the fifth century,
B, c., that the peacock was known in
Greece, and from this epoch dates the
use among Grecian ladies Of the pea
cocks tail as q new and elegant kind oI
fan. As the art of fan-mRking arose, the
use of feathers alone came to be discard
ed, az they were found too pliable. The
idea was conceived OF placing between
each pair of feathers thin strip O
wood, giving both resistance and durs
bllity, Fans are often referred to il
Latin aulhors. Plautus mentions the
lflabellifer0 or female slaves, who car,
ried psrasols and fans TO shade and
drive away flies from their mistresses
Faps Of peacooks feathers remained in
fashion through the Middle Ages and
up 10 the seventeenth century, not on
lly in Italy, but in England and France
Fans of ostrich feathers came int
favor grsdaal.y, excluding those o.
peacock, and uch fans(aS used In the
twelfth, thir teepth and fourteenth cen
turies) appear in Titian's pictureS
Leaves of palm trees, reeds and 0dor
lifsrous wood, are among substances o
which fans are made ia foreign coun
tries, for where has the fan-maker's ar
been brought to such perfection as il
Paris.

FOR the REPUBLICAN,.
MnssRs. EDtToRs Many Of the peo.
pie Of Wilmington, either becsuse OF
antipathy TO the p, W, Il B. K. r. or
OF extravagant notions Of the value Of
the competition to be afforded, Seem in.
clinod TO rush pell- nell 10 the assist
ance OF the Baltimore & Ohio E. L.
scheme.
F.. Com petition is often, but not alwayS,
wholesome, that which would divide
the money now paid by our people to
the P, W. & B. r. R. FOR freight and
pass age and which is all and much
more returned to their pockets, with a
com psting line, which wOuld spend its
earnings among the people OF distant
city, Is NOT wholesome for us, nor is
that which wsuld divert one Of ouc 10
cal roads from its original purpose and
present independence and usefulness,
10 a small portion Of through line
having immense interests elsewhere
but none here, the most wholesome
which could be desired. ItiS generally
believ ed that the control OF the P, W.
Il B. by the Pennsylvania Company
would quickly follow the establishment
Of the 4. & o. through line, In that
event we would have instead OF one
road which whatever It's faults has
been Of immense benefit 10 this city,
two through lines with no particular
Interest In us, thus We would strength
en- the two great foreign lines that pour
the treasures Of the west into Phila.
delphia and Baltimore aud through
them to foreign countries and bar our
selves effsctuslly from the benefits of q
great competing line which W0R.d ter
inmate here.
Instead OF accepting, as foregone
clusion, that We must grant every
thing and get comparatively nothing,
would not this BE- a proper time and
Ionr only chance 70 ask the B. Il .. tt
empty some of its coal or grain at the
mouth of the Christiana, or its ally tht
philadelphia & Reading to locate III
coal wharves here instead Of Philsdel
phis, In exchange for the valuable
privileges they seek at our hands. Ii
this Is desired noV, would ii not b
better TO allow the execution OF th'

be bound in by two great foreign cOEpe
