HOMES FOR CONFEDERATE SOL
DIER~.

A long expected event has taken place
in the presenting to congress of a petition
for the establishment and maintenance
by the United States Of homes for indi-
gent manned soldiers of the late armies OF
the so-callcd confederate states, whose
wounds were received at the hands OF
United States troops
In all probability the presenting of this
petition is without parallel in history, for
the men who signed the petition were not
confederate but union soldiers. and the
document was presented by a Republican,
Senator Blair, of New Hampshire.
The motives which led to the writing
and signing of such a prayer addressed to
the congress of the United States were
doubtless sincere and earnest, and such as
the sympathy of one old soldier for an
other would excite, no matter under which
flag each fought; and it cannot be said
that although such arguments are
based on sentiment, they are neg
ativcd by arguments of reason and
justice. The United States government,
commencing under Gen. Grant admins
t%ration, has repeatedly bestowed lucrative
Offices upon ex-soldiers of the late confed-
eracy, and their salaries have been cheer
fully paid by the people of this country.

A Stroll Through the Novel Hamlet
Carpet-weaving for Posterity.

A Stroll Through the Novel Hamlet
Carpet-weaving for Posterity.
Can any one call by the serious name
OF work the yawny occupations in which
these modest and smiling Hindoos pass
their timer Not a bit of it. What's work
10 them? A mere abstraction. I'm
finished pieces Of work are handed down
from generation 10 generation. They
get TO an end at last, but they leave
their dead in their tracks all through the
extinct centuries. For instance, say you
would buy an Indian rug of N Of these
carpet-weavers. You order it of an In
dian villager, and twenty-five years,
seven months and ten days afterward
you come back for it and, if Bhis-
sesswar Ganu has been right peart all
the time, he hands you your rug.
You look it over TO see if it is up to
the sample, and you find some serious
delinquencies in the upper left-hand
corner. You demonstrate. Bhissesswar
bows to you by patting the front of his
turban with the palm of his hand.
"Great sahib,T he replies, "my ancestor
of a century and a half ago did that bit.
Go kick him" You wend your way
down TO the middle and find by inquiry
that you are still several generations re-
moved. All this particular man is re-
sponsible for is about the final inch.
You pay himrtor the whole rug and that
Is his inheritance Then he starts an
other rug for the benefit Of his posterity.
Certainly there are a good many
stitches in these Oriental rugs which we
tread 80 carelessly under foot. In one
handsome carpet shown at the Indian
museum the needle was changed 400
times TO the square inch The carpet is
small and took ten years to make. There
are some carpets that are made without
n needles. / watched the villagers
sticking the wool into the Irvine in a rug
manufacture of this kind. The Irvine
threads are strung up in front and then
the weaver plays on the strings
languidly, as you would pick the strings
of n harp. After he has exhausted him
self over the performance you find he
has left some tufts of wool sticking in
front of the strings.
When he has got a considerable lot
secured in the Irvine he takes a small
circular knife, like a Tom Thumb horse
shoe, and with this tiny scythe he mows
off the heads of the wool, just as you
would do to grass, so as to make tho
whole of uniform height. Primitive,
deliberate and, in respect of accuracy,
quite delightfully."-, there or t~hereaboutl
So far rs pattern is concerned, those are
also his sentiments. The weaver will
take one rug as a pattern and make an
other ms like it as time, circumstances,
hungry that day, baby sick the next,
pattern mislaid for a year and played
the harp irrespective of it during that
period, will admit; but if he be really
n carpet artist of it is best to let
him have his head in respect TO the
pattern. Woven insanity is a sort OF
interesting novelty, especially as these
Indian weavers have nc method in their
madness.-Olive Logan's London Letter.

ANDREW CAnNEorE, the great iron an

ANDREW CARNEGIE, the great iron and
steel manufacturer of Pittsburg, re-
CARDS the outlook for the iron trade as
very encouraging. He says hat last
year steel rails were sold at sos and $40
a ton, which is below the price at which
they were sold in England. Every rail
sold at that price represented a loss to
the manufacturer, but the manufacturers
preferred to suffer the loss rather than
close their mills, Steel rails are now
sold at s35 atom, which affords a fair profit
to the mills. MIR. Carnegie says that a
now era of railroad building from Chicago
TO the northwestward has set in, and he
predicts that it will create general pros
pcrity throughout the country. He
speaks OF a single purchase of 10000 tons
Of rails, sufficient to lay 700 miles of rail
road track, and this is but an item of the
great extent of railroad building that the
year Just opened is to witness. 1t is to be
hoped that the boom will not be
worked for more than it is worth, pro-
ducing a reaction more extreme than the
present rate of progress.

The sudden death of the eldest daugh-
ter of the secretary Of state, Mr.. Bayard,
in Washington, yesterday afternoon, has
caused much genuine SORROW among the
people, high and low, at the capital. Miss
Bayard was well known there, having
occupied Il prominent position as her
mothers representative on all public and
social occasions, during the %latter's pro-
lonecd illness. Miss Bayard's influence
with her father was great; he had implicit
confidence in her tact and judgment, and
she filled most acccptably the place at the
head of the household which her mother
had surrendered to her.

In the bodily mechanism when the liver

STA, contamination Of the blood, imperfect
assimilation, are certain to ensue. But it
is easy to prevent these consequences, and
remove their cause, by a course of Hostel

the hillary organ and regulates its action.
The direct result is a disappearance of the
pains beneath the ribs and through the
shoulder blade, the nausea, headaches,
yellowness of the skin and furrcd tongue,
and sour odor Of the breath, which char
acterize liver complaint. Sound digcs-

The greatest thickness of ground ice
ever actually measured in America was
by Sir j. H.. LEROY, who in June, 1874,
on the banks of the Mackenzie river, in
latitude 81 degrees north, saw a perpen-
dicular cliff broken off by a landslip, in
which the earth was solidly frozen for
n distance of forty-ive feet below the
surface. Half n century ago, q Russian
merchant at Yakutsk, in Siberia, which
is situated in latitude &c degrees north,
had TO dig 3s2 feet before he could get
through the ground ice. The average
temperature at Yakutsk is only IA de-
grees Fahrenheit, and the town is very
near the Siberian pole of greatest cold.
Sir j.. H.. LEROY thinks there is good
reason to believe that the ground ice
within the arctic circle in America is
much thicker than the maximum in ST.
IBERIA, and even suggests that it may ex-
tend to 1000 feet.IChicago Herald.
