They are very qaiet, indostrions, and well behaved, and seem to be abovstfaej average of It:Uii^ laborers. Am^ipA them ^as one whose foimiras slender" i»3 syipaetrioa^ complexion 'fair with b' Aight 61^ tint; eyes dark and lostroaa, and hair lom;, dars haed, and wavy. An Evening Recorder reporter who visited the spot a conple iof days ago gleancxi from persons well acquaint- ed with the foots the following romantic story The fair personage was a woman. He name was Angello Lonrino. Her lover, Franko Patricio, tame to America, like many of his coantryman, to better hi? fortune. The fair Angello pined in his absence, and finally determined to join him in the far off America. To carry out her plans she dis- guised herelf in men's attire, and havin? no money with which to pay her passage, she titowed herself awav ujKjn an ocean steamer bound for the United States. After the steamer sailed she was discovered and will- ingly did a sailor's bard duty to work her passage across the broad Atlantic. At length she arrived in New York city, only to learn, after patient investigation, that her lover had joined the army of Italian labwrers upon the West Shore Eailroad. Nothing dauLted, s'le, too, became a rail- road worker, and labored for her da ly bread at various points along the West Shore Railroad, ever keeping the object of her life â€" to find her long lost lover â€" in view. During ber wanderings she came near meet- ing him. Ouce she caught sight of his f crm on the deck of a canal boat which passed near the spot where she was at work, but the overseer kept her at her task, and the boat went onward. At another time she caught a glimpse of him as he was rapidly whirled by the Amsterdam railroad station on an express tram. In the course ot her wanderings and changes she was finally located with a gang of Italian laborers a few miles below this village. Her constitution, naturally delicate, was unable to endure the exposure and hard work, aud she tell a vic- tim to typhoid fever. The fatal disease made rapid work, and the poor girl, who, until her sickness, had strictly kept to her- self the secret of her sex, rapidly succumbed to its ravages. As the end approached, Angella awoke to consciousneEs frtun her feverish delirium and saw her lover bending over her. He had been detailed to work at this spot, and arrived only in time to see her die. She fixed her eyes on the face of her lover with a look of love, and faintly mur- mured, in the language of her native land •'At last we meet, only to part forever. Farewell, my dearest." With these words she died. The remains cf Angella were Liid upon a platform, covered with a cloth, and btones placed beneath her head. For four days and nights the body was kept in this position, while the lover kept a ceaseless vigil beside it. At the expiration of this time the body was wrapped in a winding sheet and buried in the '• dump" of the read bed, the remains being covered with earth from the dumping carts. Cotton Manufactnring in tlie SoutU. The development of cotton manufacturing in the South is one of the most notable and promising industrial occurrences of the day. Not merely because of the rapid growth of the business, but more because ot its ap- propriateness and apparent profitableness. The conditions would seem to bo altogether in favor of the Southern mills, so far a.s the supplying of their home market is concerned at least, and it remains to be determined whethor they ha\e not also marked advan- tages iu the competition for control of the markets cf the West. The larger part of the charg ;s for treight, jobbers' commissions, storage, insurance, etc., which the Eastern mill owner has to pay, the Southern mill is exempt frcm and the ditferenca from $2 to $3 a bale in freight alone is clear savijg. The Baltimorek/oj/nia^ of Commerce estimates the actgal capital now invested in South- em cotton mills at $50,000,000, of which nearly one third has been invested within two years. Touching the prosperity of these Southern mills the Journal says that ten per cent annual dividends are the lowest reported, and this aft.r a large anionut has been taken from the earnings for increasing the size aud capacity of the mills. Under more favorable conditions th' dividends have baen much Lrger. To commemorate the tervijes of Oliver and OakesAmes in connection with the building ot the first railway across the United States, connecting the Atlantic with the Pacific, the Union Pacific Company are erecting a granite pyramid on the hig'iest point near its track. The monument is now nearly finished. It is 60 feet square at tne base and 60 feet high, laid up iu undressed red granite, in a style calculated to last for centuries. On the west side is a medallion bust of Oakes Ames, 9 feet high, with the date of his birth and death. On the north is the inscription: "In memory of Oakes Ames and diver Ames." Ou the cas side ths butt of OUver Ames has et tobe plated. The tjp is rounded ofi' and doei not make an acute angle. The cost is said lo l-e nearly ?90,000. i»«M â-  ACnrlona Tree. Lieutenent Houghton, who has recently visited New Guine* and several other groups of is'ands in the Pacific, reports the exist- ence cf a phehensile tree. It appears to be a species of ficut, allied to the well-known banyan-tree, wluch throws out fiom its branches air roots, that eventually reach the ground, and take root there, and in their torn bticome new stems, which perform the same function bo that a single tree wil i eventually extend so far as to form a com- plete forest, in which the sttsms are united by .the branches to each oth^r. The pre- hensile tree in question similarly throws out from its branches long, flexible tendrils whi!h^ touching the ground, do not take itxt there, but twine around any article that may lie within their reach. After a time these giMui branches -contract, eo that they .foil to reach Uie ground bat the finger-like pnceasescontinaeto dosely gripe the article r^ndwhich they have twined themselves, and ^^ch are conaeqa^iftly suspended in mid- air. In this wa^, articles of coi:sLderat)le weight may be hteridly picked up from the groond and held in sospension. ' r At a sal -^loth is now '^tnfi^liabl jS^earanoe of leather, and nearly if not ^(fUte, its dnrabflity, it is naed wBerestrength ianotso important as a good ^peaiu^ce.^ In the covering of carriage tops, tiie np^I- Btering of f nmitore, the covering %1^t£» Mifctravelliog bags, a great qoastity' is PM^* iadi^t is also employed in garments, ooTer- ^ingfe, etc., as a protection- from water. Enameled cloth originated in America, and was first made at Newark, N./J., in 1849. The details of its.maniafactnTeare very sim- ple, and can soon be told. The loun'dation of the article is cotton cloth of the best quality, and generally made expressly for this purpose. The cloth is taken from a bale and wound upon a large cylinder pre- jiaratory to receiving its first coa^ It is then passed between heavy iron rollers, from the top one of which it receives its first coating of composition. In many places the covering is spread by a knife under which the web passes. The composition is made of linseed oil, lampbl'ck, lesin, and a few other ingredients, which are boiled together till they reach the consistency of melted tar. From between the cylinders it is car- ried to a drying frame made in the shape of a reel, and subjected to a high temperature in the drying-room which is heated generally by Eteam pipes. After the drying process it is given to workmen who -make aff'the lOugh places finooth by rubbing with pumice-stone and v. ater. The cloth is then ..passed though the same operation as before, rolling, drying, and rubbing, and this is repeated from three to five times, or nntil the required thickness has been laid on. After the last scrubbing down, the fabric is taken to another department, thoroughly varnished, and again passed through the heater. It now appeal s as a piece of cotton cloth, with one black side looking very much like patent leather. One st^p yet remains to be taken. The cloth is passed between heavy rollers, -which cover its surface with regular indentations resembling the grain of leather. It is now ready for the market. We venture to say that as many frauds are perietrated in this article as in any other article that can be mentioned. Matu- facturers who desire to turn out a heavy material first fill the cloth with clay, and the result is an enamel that will crack during the cold weather of winter, or, in their endeavor to turn out a cloth that will stand a low temperature without cracking, they fill the merchant's shelves with ma- terial that will be sticky in summer. The l)0or quality is used in the cheap trunk and bag trade, but none but the best will do for the outside wear that comes upon carriage tops. â€" Manufacturers' Gazette. A Terribly Wronsed Woman. Tardy reparation haa at length been made to the memory of a mortally ^vronged Ger- man woman, whose name has been unjustly held up to public scorn and contumely in the p ace of her birth for more than two cen- turtes and a half. In the year 1617 the city of Tangermueude was destroyed by fire, and two years later several persons were tried, condemned, and executed at Brandenburg for acts of incendiarism, alleged to have caused the calamity in question. Amongst those who suffered was Grete (Margaret) Minden, the daughter of a Tiingermuende patrician. She was stripped and chained to tall post ill the market place. The five fingers of her right hand were torn off with red-hot pincers. Her arms and breasts were deeply seared with glowing irons. Finally she w as burnt to death 8l(wly. From first to last her martyrdom lasted nearly an hour. Ever since that time a so called "Confla- gration Sermon" has been preached on each succetsive fourteenth Sunday after Trinity in the principal Taneermuende Church. This discourse describes Grete Minden as an abominable monster, the refuse of mankind, who burned down her native town to re- venge herself upon the municipality for, as she believed, withholding paternal inherit- ance. It was a story by the eminent novelist Theodore Fontane, in which Grete Minden figured as a heroine, that suggested an in- vestigation of the documentary evidence connected with her case to Ludolf Parisius, a member of the Rsichstog and this gentle- man found out that the unfortunate woman had most undoubtedly been the victim of a judical murder. He lost no time in com- muuicitinghisdiscovery to the Tangermueude authoritie-, and en Sunday, the 10th Sep- tember, when the clergyman on duty ascended his pulpit to preach the two hundred aud sixty-fourth " Conflagration Sermon," he prefaced his discourse by. an iouncing to the congregation that recent enquiry into the or gin of the g^eat Tanger- mueude Fire had completely exonerated Grete Minden from any complicity with the authors of that catastrophe. For many days before and after the fire she had been lying on a bed of sickness many miles fron Tanger- mueude. Subsequently she had been wrong- fully accused, sentenced, turtured and done to death with the utmost barbarity, absolutely innocent woman. an Ezperimentins Witb Uoshrooms.

If the negroes of the south could read there would be such a demand for patent medicines, porous plasters, pills and stomach bitters as would force every manufacturer to double his help and capacity. The negro is always ailing. No matter how healthy he looks or how strong he seems, he beUeves himself afflicted. If lie could read almanacs and circulars he would think so twice as strongly. At Dalton, Ga., I saw a big fellow pick up a barrel of flour as easily as I could have lifted a twenty-five pound sack, and when I complimented him on his strength he re- plied " Yes, boss, I sieema powerful strong, but you doan' know what a hard time 1 has of it. Ize got liber complaint, dyspepsia and consumpshun, an' I reckon 1 won't neber see snow fly again." I asked him what remedies he had been using, and be replied that he had^been taking the dust of burnt leather and mixing it with cold tea. Nothing whatever ailed him, but if he could have got hold of ten dollars he would have used eight of it in b lying medi- cines. I was in a livery stable at Marietta when a man came in A^ith a bottle of prepared Ja- maica Ginger. One of tVe colored n en em- ployed about the stable, who hadn't lost a day for years and who looked as raggr d as a mountain, looked at the bottle three or four times and then asked "What ye got dar, Kumel " "Something for' apoplexy," was the re- piy- ' ' Would ye mind givin' me a sip of it, kase my apoplexy has been takin' on in de moas' drefFul manner fur de las' week ' The cork was drawn and the negro lilted^ up the bottle aud took three heavy swal- lows of the fiery stufi" The next three min- utes were the longest and hottest ones he ever saw, but as soon as he could speak he remarked "Ah butdat stuff seems to hit de right spot I reckon it will cure up my apoplexy all right, an' like 'nuff I may light on sum- thmg good fur congestion of de lungs an' water on de brain "â€" Detroit Free Press. MISCHUiANICOUS. Two church missionaries, William F.

Deer forests are very profitable possessions but if the whole country is to be turned into a vast game reserve, rents are likely to fall con- siderably.
