The First Silk Mill I'm ENGLAND.

A portion of the old mill built by John
Lombe at Derby in 171s-the first silk
mill ever erected in England-has col
lapsed, and it is expected that the whole
building will have to come down. Lombe
worked as silk weaver in Italy, and at
the risk of his life made drawings of the
machinery. He then returned to Eng
land, bringing some Italian workmen,
and built the factory on an island in the
Derwent, having first patented the ma
chinery. He died soon afterward, and it
Is said he was poisoned by a female
emissary of the Italian manufacturers.
The mill was worked for many years,
but has long been in disuse. 1t was last
utilized as a steam laundry, and was
condemned some years since as being I'M
safe. -Galirn~--i Messenger

About thirty years ago II humane Yer.
monter, by the name of Tcwksbury, took
pity on II small dog of uncertain breed, one
of whose forelegs had been crushed by the
wheel of wagon. Being something of a
surgeon, Mr. Tewksbury carefully ampu.
tated the crushed leg, and when the wound
was healed provided the dog with light
and strong wooden leg.
In the course of time the dog, which was
very intelligent little animal, became
aware that he could rest his weight upon
this wooden leg, and use it for all ordinary
purposes, and that, while it was not us
good as either of the other three legs, il
was better than no leg
In walking or trotting Mr. Tewksbury's
dog always used his wooden leg If, how
ever, he had occasion to do any leaping or
faust running, or to show in any way especial
nimbleness, with which the stiffness of his
artificial limb would have interfered, he
held up the wooden leg gracefully and
leaped or ran on the other three.
The dog lived to good old age, respected
and admired by all who knew him. His
grateful affection for mankind in general,
and for Mr.. Tewksbury in particular, was
the most marked feature of his character

Threatened Financial Panic and the
Cnush.


Cause.
The people are likly to feel the
crashing effect Of the Mckinley bill
before it goes into operation. The
country is on the eve of a financial
panic resulting from the government
policy, and the President and SecrC-
tary Window are alarmed at the sit
uation in New York and will be un.
der the necessity of resorting to eX-
IRENE measures to avert the threat
cning calamity. In the mean time
the farmers and county generally
must suffer the consequences in de,
pressed markets and low prices, by
reason OF the scarcity of money to
facilitate commerce. Various reasons
are assigned and as many rene,
dies proposed, but there is nc telling
what the outcome will be. 1t is Il
settled fact that the stringency has
been brought on earlier by the heavy
purchasing of foreign goods in antici-
patton Of the increased tariff, which
has required all the money the New
York banks could spare. Now these
imported goods are in the custom
house or in bonds, awaiting the pay
nent of Import duty before they
can be taken out. The Mckinley
bill threatens to force the importers
to take the goods out of bond by the
first of October or pay the increased
duty, which has developed II great
money stringency, causing alarm
the money can't be had to move the
goods and the increased duty will at
once cause great failures. The esti-
mated amount of money required
10 meet the emergency is all the way
from $l2,000,0 to $40, 000,0 900.
Mckinley proposes to have the
time extended by Congress in the
final passage Of the bill allowing the
goods to remain in bond until Feb
uary. This however, will only be
temporary relief pos poning the
evil day. Secretary Window pro-
poses calling in more bonds at II pre-
MUM, and pay the bond holders
their interest in advance, which will
give the sharks money To operate on,
but will draw the cords tighter on
the people.
The whole Of ii is, Mr.. Window
has withdrawn the deposits from the
banks to redeem bonds at a premium
leaving the banks short of the usual
amount of money required t. move
the produce of the country, and by
the purchase Of bonds Chose held by
National banks), he has retired that
amount of national banking cur
rency, which they were allowed to
issue on the credit OF the bonds, and
consequently contracted the currency
beyond what the country can bear.
The amount OF currency out now
will not exceed 81 per capita, where.
MS sou per capita is needed to give
the country financial relief and cas-.
There is scarcely any hope Of avid
ing financial panic under the policy
of the present administration and
the country may as well prepare for
it. The whole management is cor
rupt and rotten to the very core.
