Il the Mexican papers know what they
are talking about, the silkworm may as
well hang its harp on the willows, SO to
speak. Several of them, notably the
Financer, published in the City of Mex
leo, assert that the reported discovery of
y new textile, fibre-yielding peanut in
Mexico is confirmed, and the statements
made in regard to it are reliable. The
Financier says that this plant, which is
of the vine species, yields brilliant,
zine strong fiber that takes dyes readily,
and is extremely plant and durable
There are said to be no difficulties in the
way Of its preparation and manufacture,
and the fabric made from it closely re.
sembles silk. II correctly described, this
new vegetable addition to the list of tex.
tiles will add largely to the already
abundant natural resources of Mexico.
There is hardly a doubt, however, that
the plant will flourish in other lands of
like latitude and temperature, if trans.
planted.

THE CAT IN EGYPT.
Nineteenth Century,

.H4HSstodtu Ccutuis'l
The domestic cat 80 far as Europe is
,-5aes,uoa is ge,tes ally Supposed Is be
somewhat Of an upstart. In Egypt its
cullus had existed for ages before our an
cestors dreamed Of paying it that species
OF worship which at present appears to
connect it with the tutelary genius of the
hearth. We'have the authority of He
rodotus for the fact that when cat died
in an Egyptian home the members of the
bereaved family shaved off their eye
brows, and that of Diodorus for the
touching statement that Egyptians have
been known TO eat their fellow creatures
during famines, no instance of cat eating
was ever heard of. Ii an Egyptian
happened to find a dead cat, says the
Sicilian historian he was careful not to
approach it closely for fear of being sus-
pected OF its murder. Standing at dis
tance he made the sad loss known by
cries OF distress. During conhagrations,
according to Herodotus, the Egyptian
spectators allowed the flames to rage un.
checked, devoting their attention to
saving the cats belonging to the burning
houses. A Roman happened one day to
kill cat by accident. The melancholy
event took place at time when the
Egyptian Government was very anxious
to conciliate Rome. But in spite of the
exertions of the King and his Ministers
hesmob broke into the Romans dwelling
and Intentionally did to him what he
accidentally done to the cat OF this act
Of popular vengeance Diodorus says he
was 4 spectator. According to Lenor-
mant the cat does not appear on Egyp-
tian sculptures earlier than the twelfth
dynasty t2020 B. C.), and therefore the
credit of its domestication is due to the
inhabitants of the Upper Nile. That
process, remarks Helm, must have taken
a long time, but it was thoroughly sue
cessful in the end. The domestic cat
very rarely deserts civilization in favor OF
savage freedom, its character offering in
this respect strong contrast to that Of
its fellow Oriental, the gypsy. How the
tame cat made its way into Europe is
uncertain, although it is reported to have
travelled from Egypt by way of Cyprus.
The period of its arrival, also, is shrouded
in mystery. 1t does not seem to have
been known in classic times, and the
early centuries of our era appear to have
been unaware OF its existence. In Sc
catless a period the arrival of such be
neGcent beast as that which kept Whit
tington's memory green might well be
hailed with acclamation. Ii is easy tt
believe that the progress OF the cat wa:
rapid when it had once shown itself
Silently, but irrisistibly, it seems to have
subjugated the European hearth. 1t i.
terrible to think of how much pleasur,
az well as profit the world would have
been deprived Of if the cats career hat
been cut permaturely short. Most for
tunate was it, as Helm remarks, that it
introduction proceeded those epochs il
which its associations with idolatrN
might have caused it to fall victim t,
the fanatieism of Islam OF the asceticisn
OF Christianity.

A Metropolitan Crematory.

Ground has been purchased on the highest and the most picturesque grounds on Manhattan Island on which to erect 8 crematory to reduce dead bodies to ashes. The New York Gre mation Society wish to avoid ferries, railroad trains, and crowded thorough fares when conveying the remains of their relatives and friends to their last resting place. This will be secured by the proposed works on Washington Heights. This cemetery will be more complete than anything of its kind in the world. There are to be no yew or willow trees and no emblems of mourning. A picturesque chapel for memorial services will be erected, and the grounds will be laid out and adorned with plants and flowers suggesting hope and joy instead of the more melancholy emotions. Nor will there be any roasting or burning of the bodies, but the remains will be in- cinerated by an intensely hot, dry air radiating from furnaces fifteen feet dis tant, which will reduce the corpse in a short time to ashes. The crematory is to be in part modelled upon those in Ger many and Italy, where they are in much more general use than in this country Deneorest's Monthly.
