plicant for the vacant position. This fact has sub
jected him to q crossfre from representations of
the different factions. In letter which appears
in the city papers this morning he completely
vindicates himself from such charges. 1t must
be painful indeed for man Of Prof Boutelle' $

Nearing Nettles.
philadelphia Record. |


The common singing nettle was former
ly used largely in Germany as a material for
the making of woven fabrics as is proved by
the name of messeltuclt, the nettle cloth, still
applied to muslin. Prof. Reuleaux, the rep
resentative of the German manufacturers at
the Philadelphia Exhibition, advised expert
ments with the nettle with view to the pro-
duction of native yarn. The matter was
taken up by lady,who planted nettles for the
purpose on barren part of her estate. and
in 1877 was able to exhibit nettle flores in all
stages Of the preparation. Thereupon hum
dreds of people in Germany, Belgium, Hol-
gary, Poland, Sweden, Switzerland, and Aus
tria commenced the cultivation of the nettle,
and two years later the first German manu-
factory devoted to this industry was opened
at Dresden. A yarn has now been produced
which fulills all requirements; but the Chi
nese nettle gives the best results, yielding a
fine, glossy yarn of greater strength than
made from the common nettle. The fibre Is
therefore known as as China grass.
