ence by the revelations made by a trade
paper of the processes by which certain
manufacturers .'fill'' the sheets and
blankets with which they flood the mar.
ket.
We are told that after q piece of
waste sheeting has been woven the cloth
is passed over a trough containing a So
luton of zinc, sulphate of magnesia
Commonly known as epson salts and
water. This is called "a sprinkler. A re-
volving brush plays a spray of these
noxious ingredients upon the cloth,
with the result hat a 30 pound piece
after the operation weighs ~ pounds
more than when it left the loom. As
the goods are sold by the pound, the OBJ
iect is evident.
But what about the purchaser? A
piece cuts up into ten pairs of sheets.
Each pair therefore contains t~hree-qunr-
tiers of a pound of moisture attracting
material. The results are appalling
Az soon as n wet day comes the sheets
become damp ard the iuckless wight
who sleeps between them is apt to con-
tract q chill that may send him to the
bourn whence no traveller returns.
Even il his suspicious are aroused and
he boldly casts aside the sheets and
wraps himself in the blankets it may
avail him nothing, for the blanket
makers have learned the trick, and the
same i'll results may ensue.
Next we shall hear that the counter
pane makers are equally astute, and
the timid sleeper may be driven to pro-
vide himself with the wooden sleeping
bags that suggest travels in the farthest

CUlnB ERlAND.

At anchor In Hampton Roads we law
On board of the Cumberland sIony-o
war,
And at times from the fortress acros,
the bay
The alarum of drums swept past
Or a bugle blast
From the camp on the shore.
Then far away to the south up rosa
A little feather of snow white smoke
And we KNEE that the iron shin of our
foes
Was steadily steering its course
To try the force
OF our ribs of oak.
Down upon us heavily runs.
Silent and sullcn. the floating fort.
Then comes n puff of smoke from her
guns
And leaps the terrible death,
With fiery breath,
From each open port.
We are not idle, but send her straight
Defiance back In a full broadside!
As hail rebounds from a roof of slate
Rebounds our heavier hail
From each iron scale
OF the monsters hide.
Strike your flag!' the rebel cries
In his arrogant old plantation strain.
"Never!" our gallant Morris replies.
at is better to sink than to yieldi'
And the whole air pealed
With the cheers of our men.
Then like a kraken huge and black
She crushed our ribs in her iron grasp
Down went the Cumberland all a wrack,
with n sudden shudder of death
And the lannon's breath
For her dying gasp.
Next morn. as the sun rose over the bay.
Still fioated our flag at the mainmust
read.
Lord. how beautiful was thy day!
Every watt of the air
Was a whisper of prayer
Or a dirge for the dead.
EIo. brave hearts that went down in thu
seas!
Ye are at peace in the troubled stream.
Ho, brave land. with hearts like these.
Thy flag, that Is rent in twain.
Shall be one again
And without a seam!

AMOS R. EMO.

Amos R. Enc, the millionaire and philanthropist, died at his New York home yesterday forenoon, after brief illness, at the age of eighty-seven years. He had resided in Simsbury during the past four years, spending most of the time there. He recently went to New York for a few days and was taken six Friday. The Hartford Times says:
 "The Hon. George P. Mclean, who was in New York Saturday, learned of his illness, but it was not supposed to be of an alarming character. This af- ternoon MT. Mclean received dis patch informing him of the death of the noted representative of the old town of Simsbury.
 "Mr. Enc was native of that town and had felt the deepest interest in it's welfare through his long and success full career. He went to New York when lad and in time engaged in the dry goods business. Later in life he turned his attention to real estate and amassed a fortune estimated at from $25, ,000, 900 to $30,000,000 He was the owner of the Fifth Avenue hotel and had large blocks of property in the most eligible locations In the metropo- lis. The deceased was contemporary in his New York career with John J. Phelps and Anson Phelps in honor of whom Ansonia was named, and with the founder of the Cossett library in Granby, MT. Cossett. Like all of these men, he was benevolent beyond the t,,ro ito Df 4o,, In his old friends and town. He gave the town of Simsbury Its elegant town li- brary, costing $25,000 and also the town farm with the buildings thereon for the poor of the town. During his residence in Simsbury in the last four years he had distributed with a copious hand to the needs and happiness of his fellow | townsmen. He had been a generous friend of the First Congregational church there, although not member of any church personally.
 ''The wife of MT. Enc died ten years ago or so. She was a sister of John | Phelps, the governor of Missouri dur ing the war era, and the daughter of a Connecticut congressman. It was the wife of Governor Phelps who cared for the body of General Nathaniel Lyon after the generals fall at Wilson's Creek. It was a noble example of wo- mans heroism.
 ''The mother of MT. Enc lived until she was ninety-nine years of age, The deceased leaves one brother, Salmon c. Enc of Simsbury. aged eighty-five, and two sisters, Mrs. Milton Humphrey of Pennington, aged eighty-two, and Mrs. Bassett of New Britain, aged ninety four. Six children survive him. They are Amos r. Enc, Henry Emo, John c. Enc, William P. Enc, Mrs. Mary Pin | chet and Mrs. Antoinette Wood. The latter is a widow. Salmon c. Enc was in the general assembly from Simsbury in 1S4S.
 "The Enc family has been one of the most noted and prominent ones in the town of Simsbury. It's influence has been widely felt, and the work which it has left, especially through the in- strumentality of Amos R. Enc, will long be of beneficence to the communi- ] ty and the state"
