The weather in Jamaica.

prevailed till then, and the general theme
Of conversation was the dreadful heat
caused by the heightened drought; but
during the whole of Thursday night there
was Il strong breeze accompanied with %
very Slight drizzling rain, which continued
and fell much more smartly for some time
during Friday, and which helped mate,
rally to lessen the excessive heat. From
the protracted drought, the water supply
OF Kingston is seriously je0pardized, aud
from the low state of the water in the
reservoirs at Montgomery's corner, notice
is given by the Water Commissioners to
the r~ate-payers of Altman Town and vi
entity, that their supply of water WI be
locked Off from 7 p. m. to "a. N until
further notice. 1t now becomes the duty
Of the Commissioners to suggest how
the present supply is to be increased, and
speedily to al)pt measures to avert the
calamity with which thu city and its en-
virons are threatened.-Lbid.

Jamaica Manufactures.

There is much to do i'll Jamaica in the
way Of money making, if people will only
resolve to work. We know of no country
except Turks Island and Inagua where
there are fewer manufacturing industries
than in Jamaica. There is little or no
division of labour such as there is else
where. The man who grows sugar and
coffee, cures and manufactures it, whereas
a division Of this labOur would be more
natural, less expensive and more profta-
bic. What would it be in Europe or
America if every small farmer was to be-
come his wv miller and sell his own flour!
We import almost all of our Salt Beef,
Pork and Fish, our Butter, Lard and
Cheese, when there is nothing on earth
to hinder us supplying the whole Of these
in the island, making ourselves rich and
independent, and saving the Import du-
ties. We are glad to hear Of two new III
duStries that are about to be Started,-l
Lucifer Match Mandatory, aud a large
Mandatory for the production of Native
Soap. If the Youth Of Jamaica would
only be in earnest and turn their attention
to local Manufactures instead of hanging
on like parasites on the Civil Service. hop
ing to get employment some day, there
would be more hope of Jamaica's future
than there is at present. We hear Of
men coming here from India, Ceylon and
England and the sister colonies to buy
land to plant g flee aud Cinchona, because
these promise such very handsome returns.
Yet 1t would seem the distant prospect
Of getting into the Government service is
all the hope that Young jamaica aspires
to. Young Jamaica is ashamed to be seen
working or in trade. He would rather
than make beginning.-GalPs NevS Letter.

The Channel Tunnel.

NJ. de Lesseps and a party of French
engineers and scientific men paid a visit
on Saturday to the works of the Subma-
rine Continental Railway Company at
Dover and inspected the tunnel, which
has been run out under the Channel for a
distance of over a mile. The French yiSi-
tors, who had landed at Dover OF the pre-
vious day, reached the basis Of operations
at the water side of Shakespeare's Cliff
about 10 in the morning, a special train,
which had left Charing-cros at 8 o'clock
with visitors from town, arriving at q
quarter to II. The visitors were lowered
six at a time in an iron skip" down the
shaft into the tunnel At the bottom OF
this shaft, 163ft. below the surface of the
ground, the mouth of the tunnel was
reached, and the visitors took their seats
on small tramcarS which were drawn by
workmen. So evenly has the boring
machine done its work that one seemed to

A CAx.p1.s. writing of the uses to

A CANADIAN, writing of the uses to
which cotton will before many years
be put, says: Of all substances appa-
rently the least likely to be used IN
the construction of fire proof build
ing, cotton would perhaps take the
first rank and paper the second; and
yet both these materials are actually
being employed for the purpose indi-
Gated, and their use will probably ex
tend. Compressed paper pulp is sue.
cessfully used in the manufacture OF
doors, wall panelings and for other
similar purposes, with the result that
all risk of warping and cracking is
obviated, while increased lightness IS
attained and the fear of dry-rot is
forever banished. Papier-mache, at
ter having served useful purpose in
an unobstructive manner for years as
material for small trays, paper
knives and other such light articles,
has now suddenly assumed still
more important position in the indus
trial world. A still more sudden and
striking advance has been made in
the employment of cotton as build
ing material. A preparation called
celluloid, in which cotton is leading
ingredient, has been used lately as
substitute for ivory in the nanufac-
ture of such articles as billiard-balls
and paper cutters, and now a Cana
dian manufacturer has invented a
process by which compressed cotton
may be used, not merely for doors
and window-frames, but for the whole
facade of large buildings. The enor-
nous and increasing demand for pa
per for its normal uses as a printing
and writing material prevents the ex-
tended use of papiermache as a
building material, for which it is so
well suited in so many ways; but the
proposition of cotton is practically
unlimited, and there seems to be a
large field available for its use in its
new capacity as substitute for bricks
or at least plaster and wood.
Treated with certain chemicals and
compressed, it can be made perfectly
fire proof and as hard as stone, absO-
lutely air and damp proof; and a ma
terial is thus produced admirably
adapted for the lining-internal or
external-of which the shell may or
may not be constructed of other ma
terial, while it easily lends itself to
decorative purposes.

GENERAL ITEMS.

From the Martinsville, Va, Herald.
A gentleman from Patrick reports q
waterspout, Sunday afternoon last, 10
the Peters creek neighborhood. A
great volume of water, accompanied BY
wind, thunder and lightning, came
roaring down the mountain side with
terrific force, and spreading desolation
in its track. Eye Witnesses say the
scene was one Of awful subliuity-
people rushed from their houses IN
dread apprehension, and stood terror
stricken as the dense column of water
rapidly advanced and spent itself in
the valley below. Trees uprooted,
fences torn to pieces and scattered, and
scenes Of great desolation marked its
pathway. Fortunately there was not
a dwelling in its line of progress, and
only one barn, which was swept away,
together wirh six head of cattle, q dis
tance Of two hundred yards and lodged
in drift made BY the rushing water.

that one Of them will bring three hun.

be intends to run one hundred log teams.
A large number of men will be want
