I was strolling aimletsly along, after ' leaving tho streets of Cairo and Constant!1 nople, with a view to getting ba.'k inta 1 America. Entorlng the fictoty of the 1 Libby Glass Works I saw the wholo opc1 .ration of glass makiog. I saw vases, bottles and other things shaped in imitation of cut gloss. I then watched 1 tonic men who were cutting and polish1 ing glass. But what intcroetod me most 1 in this buildiog was tho ipinning and vxaoinff of glau. A man would take a piece of glass, held it in a flame until iuteosly hot, draw a point out through the flame, attach it to a revolving wheel about six feet in diameter, and wind upon the wheel a continuous fine thread of glass. This glass thread seemed to be almost as pliable as though it wore made of flax. Adjoining were two young women at a loom weaving fabric of this thread. When completed this glass cloth has a beautiful lustre like satin, and tho at tendants assured me that it would stand a good deal of hard usage before breikidg. The Princess Eulalia, so I was told, is to havo a dress made of glass that was spun and woven in this factory. In the French exhibit here are somo wondorful watches. One of these is claimed to bo tho smallest ono in the world. It is set in a rosobud studded with stones and a clasp at the polat of the bud keeps it closed, and when pressed, springs open, revealing this miniature watch. JAPANEflK VSOKTAALa PBDDLKBA. Several novelties in watches for ordinary use are also oxhtbited. One watch is so constructed that every time the case is opened to see what time It is, then closed again, the spring is wound up. This watch is a repeater, striking the hour and the minutes. Another watch has two faces, one on each side. One face gives the second, the minute, and the hour of the day, notes with a pointer how nearly the watch is wound up, and has two small faoee, so that the time of different oities in the world can be shown. Turning the watch over and opening the rear case, there is found a perpetual calendar, whloh gives the day of the week, the day of the month, the the month of the year, the phases of the moon,and it also contains a thermometer. The watches in this one case are estimated to be valued at $400,000. Watches are shown in the Swiss department which display equal conning in this line of manufacture. A ring with a watch set in the crown Is set in a circle of twenty-four diamonds, and, like the watches referred to in the French department, it is wound unbv I turning the eatira watch upon Ma letting. Other miniature watchsa are I shown in this exhibit, which are mounted ea butteiflies, beetles, and ducks. The cgtton exhibit of Russia surpasses that of all other foreign countries.

C.?Very few people havo any idea what a big thing the new Columbia Cottou Mill is to b?. It will perhaps be six or eight months before the mill begins operation, but some idea of the capacity and extent of tho project might be had from the present work. To begiu with, it is located on the upper side of tho Canal near tho Gcrvais street bridge. It is an L shaped structure. The front is 412 feet, the main building is 104 feet wide. The wing nearest the Canal is 120 feet long and that fronting the east 130 feet, which is to be extended to 387 feet. The main building is to be Ave stories high, and the cast wing three nt.d four stories on account of the slope. In the ground. The company claim that the mill whon completed will be the largest in the State, and the largest ducking mill in the world. Work was started on the 10th of April,and tho building i? now beginning to look like something. It is tho intention of the own-.ri of the valuable property to spend at least $700,000, and in the purchase oi machiuery quality will be the flrst consideration. The machinery will be op crated by motor power from the Columbia Canal, and quite an innovation in the shape of individual electric motors for every piece of machinery will bo iptrodnced. Heating and ventilating machinery will be used, and everything will be equipped with the very latest mechanism that can be had. Ducking and drills will be manufactured, and a specialty will be made of the heavy canvas that is used in sail making. The capacity oi the mill will be the same as is expret scd by about 45,000 cotton spindles. It is said that the mill will give employment to about 1,400 operatives, which means that about 5,000 people will be brought here by tho new mill. It is the intention of the company to use as much nativo labor as possible. At the outset only a few experienced workrain will be brought here, and they will be expected to drill the native labor. The company has started the construction of 100 houses that are to be used by tbe operatives. The new town is being built in Lexington County, just across the river.

Stevcr & 1 Do.; E. W. Baily & Co., and A. llclthotz ' fe Co. should proceed to clore them out. 1 rhe silence lasted for a second and then 1 a mighty roar went up from the pro- 1 vision pit. As oarly as lust march it 1 became apparent to the trade that mrss 1 pork was being bulled" through these houses, and It soon became noitcd about in the provision trade that A. M. Wright was behind the deal a year before he ' started a corner in ribs, end with the hilp of John C'udahy carried it through to success, making a large amount of 1 inoDdy. Appa'ently, accordiug to the general opinion of the board, he had 1 started to run a similar deal in moss pork. The collapse has beeu looked for some time, and as the monetary situation became moro and more strained, everybody not interested in meat drew out, leaving tho market so dull that there was scarcely enough businers to establish quotations, and the bubble burst. Another and heavier shock came in announcements l>y the sccrctaiy in quick succession of iue failure of the North American Provision Company, a packing concern with a'capital of a quarter of a million dollars in which Jack Ciiduhv was largely interested; of Wright & Haughey, a respeotablo firm, chiefly engaged in receiving and shipping of wheat, but who arc understood to bo interested with Cudaby in his deul in tho provision pit, and dually of Cudnhj himself, the great packer and daring speculator in provisions, whoso wealth was recently estimated at no Kss than $18,000,000, of which about $2,000,000 was made in a deal in libs last fall. The storm broke loose again after this in the lard crowd. This commodity had held extremely steady throughout tho slump in pork, but it in turn mounted the teboggan und went down as if sclflubricated. The price for September was $0.55 per tierce in the early buying. It was $6 within six minutes after Cudahy's failure was announcod, and September short ribs, which wero sold at a $74 range broke to $5,874. Before tlio close, however, both rallied, the former to $0,024; the latter to $0.30. It is said Mr. Cudahy's private affairs are eoparatc from h;s partner's matters, and that the compunies he c&ntrols with bis brothors, Mike and Pat, are not affected. THE GOLD FLOWING BACK.

I attempted to get on the back gallery, where it was cooler, but fouud the door locked, whereupon I lay on the lounge. I stayed there until assistance came to me. I was then taken back into the room where I had fallen and laid upon the bed, where 1 stayed until the buggy was ready to briug mo to towD. Cameron said that "you shall not die in my house, and If you don't get out pretty quick I will como in there anil kill you, aud then you can be carried out without pain or trouble." I was groaning at tho time he said this. I was driven to town by one of bis negro tenants to the h >me of Dr. C. S. Priestly, where I received all the attention tlq>t could be asked.
