delivered 80 days later. The guns
were tested al Sandy Hook and shipped
from Philadelphia with their crews

PAPER Cloth in Germany.-The use
of rsalcr yarn has been largely eX-
tended during the past half year. The
Importance of the industry may be
Judged by the increased production
now amounting TO about SS,OOO.OOO
rounds a year. says the F'rankfurtur
Zeitung.
The manufacturing processes are
constantly being improved. and as the
matters stand now paper yarn can be
used successfully in the manufacture
of various fabrics and garments, ex-
cnu,ing only body linen and the bet
ter sorts of outside garments. Work
ing-men's clothes. bed. and table linen,
curtains. sail cloth, imitation leather
and many other articles of good quality
can now he made.
In many fabrics the paper yarn Is
combined with wool. shoddy. cotton
waste, &C. and the supply OF fabrics
for the clothing industry is thus en-
larg,d. II is not to he supposed that
all these articles will disappear i'm
mediatcly upon the return oil peace.
Tho demand for them will continue
undiminishcd for some time. and some
of them may retain their place in the
market permanently.
The use of paper yarn for sewing
thread is also increasing. owing chiefly
to the scarcity of cotton and linen
thread. The preparation, twisting.
&c. have been improved to such an
extent that the paper threads arc
strong and durable enough to be used
in the manufacture of coarse clothing
and sacks.
