WhalebOne.

The supply of this article comes from
New Bedford and San Francisco.
They are the great whaling ports of
this country. A great amount used to
come from Nantu ,ket, but the shall low
ness of its harbor and the greater con-
venience of New Bedford drove its
trade away. On board ship the slabs
of whaleborne, as they are termed in
mercantile phrase, are done up in
bundles of about 200 pounds each and
sent to market in that shape. In cut
ting up whalebone there is loss Of
about twenty per cent. on the raw
material. The hair is worth ten cents
q pound for mixing with horse hair for
upholstering purposes, and it is some
times used in the manufacture of
brushes. The North Pacific whalers
bring in most of the supply in Novem-
Der. A smaller quantity comes from
the South Sea and arrives about June,
Now and then small quantity comes
from Davis Straits and Hudson's Bay.
Whales are caught there at all seasons
of the year, and the bone going to New
York is apt to disturb the price. Many
years ago IL was the custom of whaling
captains when out of stores to stop
at some Pacific port and exchange some
of their whalebone for the necessary
supplies, and in this way smaller lots
would come in and trouble the market.
Ships are now so thoroughly supplied
that there is no longer any necessity of
continuing this practice.
