A Relic OF "Hnrry of the West.v

Mrs. Col Alexander, residing near
the city, on the Workhouse road, is
the owner of very magnificent trunk,
which possesses an additional value az
relic. During the memorable and
hotly contested race for the Presidency
in 1914, between Henry Clay, of Ken
lucky, and James III. Polk, of Ten
nessee, q number of ardent admirers of
Mr.. Clay, being thoroughly satisfied in
their own minds that he would win the
election and become President of the
United States, ordered for him the
finest leather trunk that could be made.
1t was manufactured in this city, re-
CARELESS of cost, and is q marvel OF
elegance and durability, being es-
peoially designed to convey the clothes
of Mr.. Clay. as President, to Washing
ton City. 1t is q splendid piece OF
handiwork, and contains q remarkably
correct likeness of the grand old Ken
lucky "Commoner," wrought in hand
in the leather. But, alas "the best
laid plans o. mice an men, gang aft
agley." The election came on. The
vote was very close. As in the last
contest, New York was then the battle
field, and New York gave Mr.. Polk a
majority of about 5000. insuring for
him her electoral vote and his election
to the Presidency. Under the circum-
stances it was decided not to present
the trunk to Mr.. Clay, but to rattle it.
Col. Alexander was induced to take a
chance. and drew the prize. Louis

For moment let US glance at the
principal sour ces Of animal and vegeta-
bic oil supply, ere the fountains OF
mineral oil were revealed for the use
and comfort of the human family.
First and foremost. of course. ranked
the fish oils-the well-known train Co..
drain) oil which drained from the blub-
Der Of the great Greenland whale--a
large whale sometimes yielding fully
thirty tons Of blubber--each ton repre-
senting nearly 200 gallons of oil.
Though the cachalot, or sperm-whale,
could never rival the Greenland whale
in the quantity Of it., contribution. it
had at least the advantage of quality
and variety, since, besides ordinary
blubber, it yields large amount of
sperm-oil, and also of spermaceti. OF
the latter valuable product, the head
alone often yields ten barrels.
Next among lyie ding fish come
the grampus, or dolphin, the porpoise,
the shark, the seal, the cod. the her
ring, and others.
OF animal fats are butter, tallow.
lard, goose-grease, neat's-foot oil (pre-
pared from the feet of oxen and used
by curriers' in dressing leather), and
mares grease Imported from Buenos
Ayres and Montevidec, where q multi
tude of horses are annually slaughtered
for the sake of their hides, tallow. and
bones)l In Russia, especially at Mos
COW, yelk-of-egg oil is in great repute
for making soap and pomatum.
Vegetable oils form a very important
item in our supplies, inasmuch as oil
seeds to the value of f5, 500, 900 are
annually imported into Britain for
crushing purposes, and our exports of
oil are roughly valued at Ell 600, 900.
The export of seed-oil from London,
Hull, and Liverpool, in 1880, was A.
50S, 900 gallons.
Under the head of seed-oils rank lin
seed, cotton-seed, and castor oil. Colzo
oil. also, is made from mustard, hemp,
radish, rape, turnip. and other seeds.
Then we have olive oil and almond oil.
From India comes poppy-seed oil; from
the Black Sea, oil of sunhower
seeds. From Ceylon and the Pacific
isles comes cocoanut oil. From Western
Africa the palm-nut oil of the oil palm,
and oil of ground nuts for use in fine
machinery. From Singapore and China
we receive kokum oil and vegetable tall
low. About 1000 tons of croton oil
are annually imported for the use of
the wool-dressers of Britain.
Besides these, so familiar to our
selves, almost every country has some
speciality in oils. Thus, in Southern
Russia, tobacco oil is largely used; in
Italy, oil of grape stones; in China, oil
of tea seed; in India, Oil of nutmegs, of
seed of the gamboge tree, of custard-
apple seed, of cashew-nut, of carda-
nom, of mean, Of margoza, and many
others. Brazil, too, has a large num-
