A SOUTHERN MONOPOLY.
Something About Slate Pencils and
Where Made:

Comparatively few persons are aware
oi the fact that the only place in America
wh"re slate pencils are now manufactured
Is IN the State of Virginia, near the city
oi Charlottesville, Albcrmarle county.
FOR number of years soapstone slate
pencils of fine quality were manufactured
Mt quarry near Castleton, Vermont, but
ABOUT ten or fifteen years ago the slate of
winch these pencils were made began to
grow gritty and the quarries we,e abau.
doned.
Another slate pencil factory was started
near Slatington, Pa, but the slate proved
TO be unfit for pencils, as it was too hard,
ana consequently the enterpEiseS =,

ing the last few days had gradually grown
weaker. During the past twenty-four
hours he had remained in scmicoma-
tose condition, and was aroused with
difficulty.
Ills death was so peaceful that Gov
MCLane, who was at his bedside. could
not for several moments believe that the
general was dead. There was not sigh,
not n movement; his heart ceased to beat
and he sank to rest as pcaCcably and
quietly rs babe to sleep.
In addition to his heart trouble, the
general had contacted severe cold when
he recently acted as pail bearer at the

With the death of Gen. Johnston there
is removed the last prominent figure on
either side in the great civil war.
There were great many callers at

II ia likely, states the Omaha Bee, that
the reindeer of the domesticated siberian
variety will be introduced into Alaska
before the close of this year by the
Government of the United States. The
subject was brought before Congress by
a Federal agent in Alaska, Doctor smell
dom jackson. Agent Jackson says thas
the natives live along the Arctic coast
of Alaska arc in state OF starvation ON
account Of the gradual diminution OF
the means of subsistence there, that but
slight expense would be incurred IN
hrino,ng over from Siberia STOCK OF
reindeer, and that by the propagation OF
tbis animal constant supply OF 1000
could be secured for the Alaskans. The
means needed to procure the reindeer
from Siberia will be put at the disposa
Of the Interior Department. The iarg
Siberian variety of the reindeer is ridde
by tke Tungusians, who also use 1t 10
draupht and who value it for its speed
endurance, and particular oiaptation
