In some OF our Southern exchange we
find mention made of new material sui
ted to tie manufacture Of bagging and
rope. The plant is known pretty generally
in the central Southern States as besr grass
and farther south as the spanish dagger.
1t belongs to the yucca family, which con-
taius about dozen varieties, all stout and
tough in leaf and fibre, and Is known as q
beautiful and abundant bloOmer. In Ken
lucky and Tennessee bear grass has been
used for hanging up meat In smokehouses
ever since those states began to become
settled. According to one Journal the
yucca plant, or this variety OF 1t, Is omni-
present everywhere in the South below 40
degrees north latitude. and if what IS
claimed for 1t Is true, it furnishes another
important item In the great resources oil
that section of the Union. The fibre is
represented as being strsng as hemp, and
almost as lndestructible as iron, except
BY fire. Its advantages are briefly summed
up as follows: The plant grows more than
one hundred years, loses less than one-tenth
in cleaning, gives the strongest coarse fibre
In tho world, will not shrink when it gets
wet In rope, yields largely, requires no cul-
tivatlon after the third year, Is worth ten
to fifteen cents Der pound when cleaned,
and grows spontaneously everywhere south
of thirty-one degrees.

THE ONE GREAT MEDICINE.

Without doub; there are now, and have been for
years past, several medicines OF remarkable merit
before the public-medicine5 which have been
used, IN very many cases, with excellent success
The names Of these will readily recur TO our read-
ers, and they are the names of preparations whose
worth, for certain purposes, no one 3 supposed 10
deny. But We ara fully justified, by undenlab.e
and notorious facts, in saying, and We do unhesi-
tatingly say, that the one great medicine OF the
present day-the medicine, we mean, which now
stands pre-eminent shove all Others-is the Ia
nous NEGBTfSE OF Mr.. ii. K Stevens OF Boston,
Some of the undeniable facts respecting this IA
nous medicine are these:
First II is astOnshingly efficient In really curing
the various diseases for which it Is especially COM
pounded and intended.
Second, it acts with a celebrity which is generally
very surprising. A single bottle has often either
cured the user Of serious difficulty, or brought
about most agreeable change, while very few
bottles have In thousands OF instances affected the
complete cure of a long standing disease which
had previously bafiied the skill OF the best ply
scians.
Third, IT acts directly upon the blood. Of which
II Is the only powerful and thorough purtner.
Fourth, the tes timonisls in support OF these
facts and the extraordinary worth Of this msdi-
cine are from welEkRown and most respect
able men and women, and, IN many In
stances, from persons holding ne highest
unknown and irresponsible individuals. We, our
selves, know the very higs estimation m which
Vsgetins u held In one OF ths best famiies In Me
city.
There is, in Short and can he, ne doubt or mis-
take whatever soout the unprecedented and sur
prising efficacy, value and success Of the Vegetlne
As purider of the blood and q quick renovator
and invigorator Of the human system, physical and
mental, no medicine, a Is now generally conceded,
has ever been dsvfssd and compounded At all
equal to It; and, As speedy and thorough cure
for such complaints a. catara, cough, sternaca
weakness and fsintnsss, loss Of appetite, dyspep-
STA, canoerous humors, screfula, rheumatism, Kid
ney and some other equally serious complaints,
Vegetins altogether surpssses any and al other
Known medicinal preparations The rapdry
with which this great medicine has won It's way
INTO all parts Of this country and variouS foreign
ones since its discovery and Introduction, fJt many
years ago, Is something alike surprising and con-
1rmaiory of rs intrinsic exccllsnce--Providence,

To Cleanse q soited ChamOis Leath-
sr-Msny workshops contain dry wash
leather, which is thrown aside and wasted
for the want of knowing how to clean 1t.
Make a solution of weak soda and warm
water, rub plenty Of soft soap into the
leather, and allow it to remain in soak for
two hours, then rub it well until it IS quite
clean. Afterward rinse it In weak sOlu-
ton composed OF warm water, soda. and
yellow sosp. 1t must not be rinsed In
water only, for then it would be so hard,
when dry, as to be unfit for use. 1t is the
small quan tity OF soap left in the leather
that allows the finer particles OF the leath-
er to separate and become soft like silk.
After rinsing, wiring it well in rough
towel and dry quickly, then pnll 1t about
and brush it well, and it will become soft
er and better than NEST new feathers. In
using rough leather to touch up highly
polished surfaces it is frequently observed
to scratch the work; this is caused by par
ticles Of dust, and even hard rouge, that
are left In the leather, and il removed by
a clean rough brush, it will give them tho
brightest and best finish, which all good
workmen like to see on their wsrk.

Of taking part In certain delicate pendulum
observations for determining the exact force
of gravity at this point, bringing with him
for that object the pendulHms which have

in England and IN India. Professor S. F.

Napoleon Just Before Waterloo.

The Emperor sent for me (after his re
turn from Elna) and kept me with him
about quarter of au hour. AS this was
my last interview with Napoleon, | will
give the particulars of it:
Swell" he said, as soon as he saw me.

Can l rely on the mer You have appoint

''but | can not answer for them TO your
Majesty. The time allowed me was alto
gether insufficient. | found new projects

self. / avoided as far as possible mixing
choice of men of extreme views, and | e1-
cluded all those who were notoriously such
but l can answer for nothing. Besides,
until either political treaties or victories
have definitely pronounced for us, we can
not reckon on any real success. The return
of the Empress to Paris would do more at
this moment than all the efforts of the
Commissioners to the Departments"
.'You are right; l dent altogether de-
spair | have sent to Vienna; 1 have en-
deavoreG TO treat with Talleyrand; he wi II

But, Interrupting himself, ''was the Due

made no Inquiries. IL he was there, it
was better TO give nun an opportunity oil

Then after a moments silence, he re-
sumed:
"What was the state of public feeling in
those departments 2"
at is my duty to tell your Majesty the
truth, replied, land | will not attempt
to disguise it. With the exception of
some parts Of La Vendee, where il was
entirely against the Bourbons, and almost
revolutionary, in other places, and especial
ly among the higher classes, it is If not
hostile, at least cold and Indifferent. As
for the lower classes, they seem actuated
rather by a return to republican maxIrns
than by any ether sentiment; and If they
attach themselves to the name of your
Majesty, II is because they take II as a
guarantee of the liberties which they claim
and which you have promised to restore.
But | must not conceal that nearly every

''Oh, l know that" he exclaimed, 81
am tcld of it on all sides. | never admit
ted women into cabinet secrets; never
suffered them to NEEDLE with the Govern
ment; and they are now avenging them
selves.
The conversation, during which, as his
custom was. he rad never ceased walking
up and down, then dropped, and after a
silence of few minuIss, was dismissed.
left the audience chamber with an un-
satisfactory impression. The Emperor
was no longer what had seen him form
erly. He was moody. The confidence
that of old had manifested itself in his
speech, the tone of Command, the lofty
ideas that directed his words and gestures,
had disappeared. He seemed already to
feel the hanG of adversely that was soon to
weigh so heavily upon him; he had al
ready ceased to reckon on his destiny.

HUMOROUS.

A GOOD country parson preached ser
les of sermons on practical morality, and
very interesting and instructive they were.
A lad In the village who bad heard only
one of them was coming out Of an orchard
one day, his pockets bulglng out with sto-
len fruit. He met the parsop, who noticed
his efforts to conceal the evidences OF his
guilt. "Have you been stealing apples?"
asked the minister "Yes, answered the
boy sheep'shly. ''And you are trying to
hide them from met" continued the good
man. "Yes. SIR SAID the culprit bright

Hanging between two small windows,
and catching the light from larger one
opposite, in one OF the Offices OF Adams
Express Company, at SO Broadway, New
York-the Office occupied by MIR. W. d.
Hall, head of the delivery department-is
q plainly finished but neatly framed chro-
mo about p by feet In size, which is
looked upon by hundreds Of people daily,
on many of whom 1t has wonderful and
salutary effect. II represents q flight of
half q dozen rough stone steps leading
from the swarded bank of placid lake to
q little rustic temple set in the rugged side
OF the mountain which rises in stupeGdous
proportions in the background all covered
with rank luxuIiant growth of foliage in
brush anG tree. In the open door of this
little temple stands half concealed figure,
with An arm and hand extended, holding
forth small, dlmly defined package, while
seated on the sward at the foot OF the steps
an aged pilgrim, barefooted, lame and de-
creoid, bears a staff in one hand, and in
the other holds before his dim eyes a small
bottle, whose label he eagerly scans. This
label bears the words st. Jacobs Oh, the
Great German Remedy" Simple as this
little chrome appears III Its unostentatious
position, Ii has an influence which it would
be difficult to estimate. 1T Is to that
picture and the persuasions OF MIR. Hall, !"
suit Mr.. Edward J. Douglass, gentle
man connected with Mr.. Halls department
''that 1 owe my present ability to perform
my work. Some weeks ago l was violent
ly attacked with sciatic rheumatism, and
hour by hour / grew worse, and nothing
my family or the doctor could do gave me
any relief. Ibegan tc think in few days
that my case was hopeless and that l was
doomed to be an invalid and hopeless
cripple for life But at last l thought Of
that picture which had SO often looked
at with but little interest. and then Sir.
Hall came to nv bedside, and telling me
how st. Jacobs Oil had cured him Of
worse and longer standing case than mine,
urged me to use the same remedy. l did
