The manufacture of leather is reach
ing what must be almost the highest
perfection of the art. a new process
has recently been patented in France for
the production Of leather which both
to the touch and eye has striking re-
semblance to velvet. Leathers of this
description hitherto manufactured have
been obtained by treatment of the flesh
side of the hide or skin. The flesh side
of the skin being always coarse, the
patentees claim now to secure better
results by treating the hair side. They
scratch or rub the hair side with rub

The TnIlest OF All Animals.

There are Il few groups of living
large mammals whose existing members
appear never to have been surpassed in
size by their fossil relatives. Foremost
among these are the whales, which now
appear to include the largest members
of the order which have ever existed.
The so called white. or square mouthed,
rhinoceros of South Africa seems also
to be fully equal i'll size to any of its
extinct ancestors, and the same is GER
tmnly true of the giraffe, which may
even exceed all its predecessors in this
respect. Whether tho fossil giratfes were
or wclc not the equals III height of the
largest individuals of the living species,
there is no question but that the latter
Is by far the tallest Of all living mann
mails, and that it was only rivaled in
this respect among the extinct forms by
its aforesaid ancestors. Moreover, if

How lonely arc the hours that pass,
When sicc, and hail from heaven dart,
Or when there's sunshine on the grass:
How often you wish back the night
When the storms fury seemed to fall;
How often strive to stay Times flight,
And that drcar winter back ward CALL

And the weird shrieking of the wind

Of loss that saddens heart and mind
