Some Novel Industries.

The manufacture of iron wool has begun at
the Isabella blast furnaces at Sharpsburg Pa.
1t is produced by throwing jet of steam
against the stream Of hot Stag as it flows from
the furnace. The product is similar in ap-
pearance to third-grade cotton, but is eighty
per cent, heavier. 1t is incombustible, and
when placed in the fire it remains unaffected.
1t has been used for packing to deaden sound,
for protection against fire, and for various
other purposes. 1t is an excellent polishing
agent. Hundreds of people are visiting the
furnaces to witness this novel manufacture.
A great trade in paper bottles is growing up
in Germany and Austria; ten per cent of rag,
forty of straw and fifty of brown wood-pulp
are used in making them. Thin paper is
coated and impregnated with solution CON-
posed of sixty per cent of defbrinated fresh
blood, thirty-fve of lime, and five of sulphate
of ammonia; dry and coat again; put ten or
twelve sheets together, and then dry in heated
moulds under pressure. They are made in
two pieces and Joined afterwards, and are
said to be perfectly proof against spirits and
other liquids.
Making bricks of cork now constitutes one
Of the new German industries. The usual
size is ten by four and three-fourths by two
and half inches. They are prepared from
small corks, refuse, and cement, and have not
only been used for certain building purposes,
on account Of their lightness and insulation
properties, but are also employed as cover
ing for boilers, in preventing the radiation Of
heat.-E1change

Ruins in constantinopls.

Constantiuople is VIGOROUSLY city built on
ruins. Every time new house is erected
numbers of ancient relics are brought to view.
the trustees of the American Bible House in
that city are making an addition to their fine
building, and have found regular maze of an
cient foundations at from ten to twenty-five
feet below the surface of the ground, Some of
the old walls contain great bricks fourteen
inches square, as hard as stone, and each
stamped with a name in Greek characters. 1t
seems to be uncertain whether the name on the
bricks is that of the maker or that of the En-
peror. Some of the bricks are marked Kotadl
others Ronctans. Others yet have besides q
name a date which corresponds to the year 607
A. d, The cement in which these bricks are
laid is as hard as rock, and it is difficult to
get them out unbroken; but specimens of quite
o number of stamped bricks will be preserved
at the Bible House for the inspection of those
interested.
In one part OF the ground is large cellar
which extends under an adjoining street and of
which the vaulted roof is supported by great
monolithic columns which bear the cross on
their capitals. 1t is quite probable that a
Christian Church or monastery once occupied
this site, although not single inscription has
been found whereby to identify the structure.
Under the foundations Of this Christian edifce
were found fragments of sculpture that date
from heather times. A Corinthian capital and
some fragments of corDices in beautiful red
marble suggest that a splendid building
stood here before the Christian Church was
built. In one part of the ground were found
several graves. Each one was covered with
tiles evidently made for the purpose; they were
about sixteen inches wide and thirty inches
long. They were, when in position, arranged
on edge, meeting over the body like roof 10
keep the earth from contact with it. There
was no inscription on any of these tiles, and
nothing 10 fix the period of the tombs, except
the copper coin which had been placed in the
mouth of each corpse for Charon's fee. These
coins are from 260 TO 2s2 A. D. in date. The
skeletons found in these tomb- were naturally
mere dust after 500 years of Inflammation.
The great joints of the legs alone remained in
tact. The skulls fell to powder at once upon
exposure. In each tomb was a glass vessel,
but in every case hopelessly broken. In one
part of the ground, several feet nearer the sur
face than these tombs, three skeletons were
found erect in an old we'll. These had been
but century or two in the ground, and per-
haps marked the scene Of some tragedy Of tho
harem. At all events those three grim forum
emerging under the pick from mysterious
past would serve Hawthorne or q Poe as
capital for story that would insure for weeks
to the bravest of us the habit of looking over
the shoulder when left alone and in The dusk. !

The Journal Of he Society of Arts (London)
says:
The great progress made in the acclimatiza-
ton Of cinchoua trees in India, Ceylon and
elsewhere has awakened the governments Of
countries where the plants are indigenous, to
the necessity of conserving from reckless de-
structicr, and replantiug denuded forests, 50
as to be able to keep up the supply Of this VAL
liable product.
In Bolivia, since 1878, according to the re-
port of the Netherlands consul, private indi-
yidualS aud land owners have taken up the
question with great earnestness, and at the
present time, on the banks Of the Map;ri, in
the department Of La Paz, there are over a mil
lion Of young trees growing.
New plantations have also sprung up in
various other localities, either on private
ground or that owned by government. The
competition Of India and Ceylon in supplying
the markets has had also the effect Of inducing
more care in collecting, and also of revisiting
old spots, often with the result of rich harvest
of bark which had been left on partly deuuded
trunks, and the opening up Of new localities.
The new shoots springing up from the old
stunps have yielded much quill bark, and the
root bark OF the old stumps has also been util-
lied.
The replanting entails very little expense.
The Indian tenant on an estate has house and
land from the owner (hacienda) Of the estate
For this he binds himself to work for two TO
four days week, at from % to sc cents per
day. Thus the planting wedding, etc., during
the first two years is but nominal in expense;
after this period the trees may be left to them
selves.
On government land the expense is greater,
as after an application being made the land is
put up at public auction. and may fetch very
low or a higher price, according TO the bid
ding. The land secured, contracts are made
with natives Of the lower class to clear the
forest and plant cinchona. The contracts are
often sublet TO Indians. The young plants are
planted from five TO six feet apart, with banana
trees between, on account of their rapid growth
and the shade the latter afford. From March
to June, after the wet season is over, is the
best time for planting, and the contractor
keeps the plantation free from weeds and in
good order for twelve months, when it is
handed over to the owner. The following is
given as the coat of the Mapiri river plantation

Till the plants are above two years of age
they are liable to die from drouth or the at
tacks Of ants, and during 1878 many thousands
died from these causes. At the end Of the
fourth year some proprietors began to collect
the quillbark by the method of coppiceiug.
It is feared by some that should this new
venture be successful it will prove dangerous
rival to the plantations of India, Ceylon aud
Java, and lower the price of bark consider
