Yes, sumach is used" replied Mr..
Jewell, land terra iaponica rs well.
But do not call it by that name it is
known as gambler. 1t is very astrin-
gent, but l am not so certain about its
exceedingly large percentage of tannin.
[ will show you some" An attendant
brought a reddish lump. "There it is;
that is gambler. Oh, it is very sweet
and by no means unpalatable, although
if you should swallow any of it, it
would tan the inside of your stomach in
less than no time. Terra japonica
Japanese earth) is gathered from trees
in Japan. The drippings enter a re-
ceptacle placed in the earth at the foot
of the tree, and when taken out in a
grlmmy condition sometimes appear COW
cred with earth. Therefore, the sub
stance, which is the gum of a tree, has
received the appellation of japanese
earth.
In tanning, the hides are first put to
soak in a solution of weak lime water
and hung up in a sweating vault so that
just enough decomposition may set in
to permit the removal of the hair. When
this has been accomplishment the
critical period must be carefully watched
SO that the hides will not spoil-they are
introduced after suitable cleaning to a
solution of henbane or pigeon manure,
which circulates through the pores and
removes every trace of the lime. Then
the tannin-vats are employed and after
repeated chargings the hides become
thoroughly saturated with the liquor and
are tanned-that is, the PORES of the
skin have been filed with the tannin.
A good workman will increase the
horn-dry skin so per cent. in weight by
the process. Mr.. Jewell says in the tan
ming of his hides, which are not usually
so dry, the weight is enhanced So per
cent. The changing of the hides from
weak to increasingly strong liquors usu-
ally ceases after 10 or Is days. They
are then placed in layaway watts. Upon
each is a shovelful of ground bark and
over all is the bark liquor. There are
perhaps half dozen layaways, consum-
ing two months or more, beginning with
liquor of 10 degrees and closing with
one of 80 degrees. At least four months
is required for the entire process of tan
| ming sole leather.

A Great AQueduct.

Among the notable American works
about to be undertaken is the construc-
ton of new aqueduct running from a
vast reservoir to supply New York city
with water. This aqueduct will be
thirty miles long, and although the first
estimate is S14, 10000 it will probably
cost S25, 900, 900. When completed New
York city will have a water supply OF
36O, ,OOO,O 900 gallons per day. Even
should there be year of drought there
will be never less than 25O,OO0,OOO gal
Ions q day, an amount sufficient for a
population of 5,O0O,0 900 persons. 1t Is
doubtful whether New York city really
needs this costly piece of work, dor un-
derneath the city lies a vast reservoir OF
water which is sweeter, cooler, and
chemically purer than the Croton or any
other river or lake water. 1t can bt
reached in about forty feet from thu
surface, and has been tapped ina thou
sand different wells to supply hotels
bathing houses, breweries, and manu-
factories. New York is the best watere'

GONE OVER.

Come hither, come hither~ the broom was
in blossom all over yOn rise,
There went wide murmur of brown bees
about it with songs from the wood;
I'VE shall never be younger; Oh, love, let us
forth for the world meath our eyes
Ay, the world is made young cen as we, and
right fair is her youth and right good"
Then there fell the great yearning upon me
that never yet went into words,
While lovesome and moansome thereon spake
and falter'd the dove to the dove,
And came at her calling: 'Inherit, inherit
and sing with the birds"
I went up to the wood with the child of my
heart and the wife Of my love.
o pure! pathetic! Wild hyacinthe drank
it, the dream light apace-
Not leaf moved at all meath the blue, they
hung waiting for messages kind;
Tall cherry trees dropped their white blossom
that drifted no whit from its place,
For the south very far Out to sea had the
luling low voice OF the wind
And the child's dancing foot gave us part in
the ravishment almost a pain;
An infinite tremor of life, a fond murmur
that cried out on time.
All. short must all end in the doing and spend
itself sweetly in vain,
And the promise be one of fulfllment to lean
from the height of its prime?
I'VE shall never be younger" nay, mock me
not, fancy, none call from yOn tree;
They have thrown me the world, they went
over, went up; and, alas for my part,
| am left to grow old, and to grieve and to
change but they change not with me.
They will never be older, the child Of my
love and the wife Of my heart.

A DEN OF SEA LIONS.
HOW BOY WRESTLBD WITH A CUB ON
ANECAPA ISLAND. CALIFORNIA.

In among the ragged rocks, over which
the waters lazily lashed themselves into
froth and foam, LARGO rowed us. We
looked up in awe and wonder at the
dark black rocks, upon whose highest
points could be distinctly seen the nests
and the maternal portion of the eagle
families who reside there. Through a
narrow pass between those rocks and we
are now in a rock enclosed basin, almost
beneath the precipitous cliffs of the
main island. A pile of smootly-washed
stones afTor dcd Il landing place Ind We
were at the mouth of large cavern and
near n tunnel worn by the waters through
n mass of rock A railroad train could
pass through this tunnel at low tide; at
high tide it is sacred to the wild waves
and breakers. To the right there is
| den. and such den, too. Here were
seen at least two hundred little sea lion
pups or cubs rolling and tumbllng over
| the rocks, wholly unconscious OF our
presence. 1t was not until shot had
| been fired and rocks thrown at them that
the large sea lions became alarmed.
They were not brave and made no at
tempt to protect their young. On the
contrary, as soon as they saw us looking
in their nursery they gave loud barkS,
snorts or roars, and dived deep into the
water, which rose and fell in fOamy
breakers at the mouth of the cave. A
hundred could have been caught with
ease, SO stupid did they appear to be.
A second visit made to the den by
other members of the party resulted III
the capture of two Of the young sea lions
or seals. A little boy, ten years OF age,
named Ernest Whitehead ambitious tC
own a sea lion cub, followed Mr.. Seely,
of GoIeta. into the den. He at once
threw himself upon young cub al
most as large as himself, wrestled Will
it in an attempt to force it into a sack,
and, rs he rolled into the water with his
fnny antagonist, he cried Justify tol
help and a larger sack. With the as
sistance of Mr.. Seely the little fellow Sc
cured a captive cub and brought it tc
the sIoop, where he shed his wet clothes
and lay basking on the sunny decl

Curious Recovery of Eye-Sight.

Captain Sam S. Thompson, the popu-
lar young captain of the Birmingham
rifles. who visited Mobile during the en-
campment of the Second Regiment, Will
be remembered by many citizens. No
one of the many who made his acqua1n-
tance here imagined that one of his two
clear blue eyes was perfectly blind, yet
such was indeed the fact. A stranger
fact than this, remains to be told. About
seven years ago Captain Thompson, who
is the pattern-maker at the Lynn Iron
works, Birmingham, received blow on
the left eye, which thoroughly destroyed
the sight of that orb, although 1t dld
not change its outward appearance.
On the 9th inst, while at work, Captain
Thompson noticed that he involuntanly
shrank or lodged rs he moved past
objects on his left hand side. This was
novel experience, and he wondered
why he should be so peculiarly nervous
Presently, however, he had occasion tC
place his hand to his right eye to ruk
some dust from it. At length the trutl
of his case was revealed to him, for he
discovered as he closed his right eye
that the old time darkness did not sur
round him. He could see with the ey'
which had been totally blind for sever
years. The sight is not as perfect II
that of the right, but sufficiently clea
to distinguish objects even at some dis
tance, although not distinctly. In re
gard to this phenomenon the physician
of Birmingham say that the sight wa
obscured by Il coagulated particle G
blood under the iris, which has at lengt
dissolved. The sight will doubtles
continue to improve. (Aia

The Manufacture of Matches.

The ingenuity and skill required in
the manufacture of matches are matters
that rarely enter into the minds OF those
who use them. Yet the matchmaking
industry has reached vast proportions
in the United States and Canada, which
can be better realized when it is known
that one firm alone paid 81 900, 600 in
taxes during the year 1881, being at the
rate of one cent per box. From the cor
respondent of Scotch publication, who
has been visiting one of the largest fac
tories in Canada which manufactures
match-boxes and match-splints, we
learn something of the labor required
in the production of this domestic ne
cessity.
The wood used is pine and spruce, the
Door ends of merchantable lumber. In
consequence there is an enormous waste
in manufacturing. Match-boxes are
made from a square piece of wood by
| one turn of machine, after which pro
cess, which leaves them rough, they are
placed in a hollow roller which Is re-
volved by water or steam power.
BY this means all defects are removed.
The match-sticks or splints are cut
double the length of a match by ma
chine. which cuts them with wonderful
rnpidity, as many as 4G, 100000 sphnts
being made at some factories every day.
When the spIints are made they must
be dried. For this purpose they are
packed in racks placed in rooms heate'
by steam pipes.
After being taken from the racks the
imOerfect splints are sorted from tho
perfect ones. This is not such serious
task as may be imagined, and IS accom-
pIished by skiIlful shaking, by which th'
bad ones are made to go to the top
These splints must then be dipped ol
both ends INTO the phosphorus and cu
into two, and the match is ready for tn
packers hands. The bulk Of the labo
is performed by boys, girls and young
women. They work ten hours i'll cacI
twenty-four. The young women ar
paid the munifccnt sum of forty cents
day, the boys and girls Il trifle NOR
than half that amount. which seems lik
offering premium for vice and immol
ality.

To say that the citizens of New.

To say that the citizens of New
berry have not done their duty, is
not enough; or rather it is too
much, for it is incorrect. They
erected the college here; they have
more than $4,000 invested in the
college building; and they have
not withheld their patronage, al
though in patronizing the college
they cut themselves off from any
benefit that may be derived from
the public school fund. They have
done well; others, worse. These
colleges are hardy plants; they are
tenacious Of life and it is almost i'm
possible to kill them; but the
amount Of their vital energy and
the degree of their prosperity must
depend upon the church, and the
denominations may as well begin
to work in the light ofthis truth.
