Fer the Istelieejiceu. FELLING. By this term ye have no reference what ever te the voids fall or falling assutu ing a recumbent position in any of their moods or tenses : but te a species of sew ing known te the sliopbeard by that title. And here at the outset, we beg leave te remark, that although the various sew ing machines new in use, all, or nearly all. claim te fell, and have attachments by means of which they propose te execute felling, j ct no machine has ever been in vented, and perhaps never will be invent ed, that can execute the stitch known te the hhopbeaul as felling. That operation is one of the manipulations in stitch-craft that can only be executed by a human hand, and the mere practised and culti vated the hand is, the mere peifect will be the felling. Felling- may be regarded as a genetic term, te which bcleflg several species. There is plain-felling, ilcsli fell ing, top felling and dimplcfceling, or felling and dimpling ; none of which cau he executed by a machine, except perhaps the last named, of which there may be a .soil. of substitution of equivalent cfl'eet. Plain felling is executed by a whip stitch ever a raw or turncd iu edge, as felling-in facings, sleeve linings, or the edges of a garment. The needle is tin list in, turned upward, and brought out near the point of entrance, without having been diivcn ".through and through." Ne mechanism, destitute of life and bcusatieu, can produce such an effect. The operation is still mere difficult and delicate in llesh-felling. The needle is thrust into the face of the cloth, turned and brought thiengh near the point of entrance, having gene only half way through the cloth, and leaving the stitch invisible en the opposite side. This kind of felling is analogous te " Ueahbastiug," the object being te attach one fabric te the surface of another without exposing the stitches en the opposite side of the fabiic te which it is sewed. Bcfem the advent of wadding, back and side linings and the sewing machine, llesh-felling was much in vogue. It was used in hemming the bottoms of pantaloons, tinning in the back skirt, felling in the back margin oft breast facings, or elsewhere, where a , through and through stitch was iuailmiss-' iblc. A delicate hand and a practical operator was requited te de this well. Net se much call for it new as in former times, and pcihaps it is well, .because the number of llcsh tellers is becoming lim ited. Tep-felling required mine mechanical skill than either of the ether kinds of fell ing mentioned above ; but it was net in such general use mainly because of the dilliculty of executing it well. Of course nothing but a human hand directed by a human mind can perform this particular kind of work. Theie are machines that cm set type, and that cau cut, bend and set wool and cotton cauls, or that cau per fiuiii many i.thcr dillieult and complicated epcraliims, but no machine has ever yet been invented, and it would be:;afe te say, never will be invented, that can execute lop-felling ; that operation sets n limit en human invention. There was a period in the history of mechanical tailoring, when it would have been rcgaulcd as im sVdlfulness or inability, for a weiknian te seam the cellar and bieast facing aciess the roll of the lappal, where the cellar and the gorge aie united ; the under part was usually t earned, but the upper paii was invariably felled ; and ly the meht skilful workmen it was tep-felied. The very revei.'.c obtains new, the top is , seamed and the inside felled. We may admiie the legularily and uniformity of stitch as executed by a fust clas-s ei orator , of a sewing machine ; but is net mere se than were the stitchta in top-felling by a , first class tailor in the long aje. The:c miy be these who can execute it new, but the operation is new veiy little in demaud. Tep-felling was manipulated te the best advantage ever the raw edge of fine cloth, or double-milled cassinieic, nut c- pceially the former. it could alhe be ex esiucu ever a mrncu in ciie 01 nuu .si a. 1 or rati". The needle was set hi en the top ! of the edge instead 01 under it, as inerdi- ' nary felling, aud diawn out towards the ( operator, leaving the stitches perfectly ' vertical and net obliette, as in common felling. When coats wcic faced v.itli cloth aluue the best workmen ten lulled the whole inner edges of the facing, be- j ginning at the waist scam aud continuing te the side scam, two or three inches be low the back scye point of the feiepait. And when the fashion or binding the edgis was introduced the cdyns of the facings .wcie top-felled en the binding, at least along the edges of the cellar and the roll e! the lapels. When skillfully 110110 en the inner edge of the facing no btitch was visible en tlie euU-idc. Dhnnlc-fclHftg, or felling and dimp ling, required equal if net giealer skill than cither kinds, in elder te de it well, and if net well done, it was better net te attempt it. This was executed by di iviug the needle far enough through the fabric te just feel its point against the index linger of the left hand, aud then suddenly turning it up and dtawing it through. Twe operations were pcrfeimcd by this stitch, and it required a geed manipulator of the needle te execute them well. The ebicct was net eulv te make the fellin" appear vrcll, but also te make' the (TTmiiliiiir appear as if t'ie edges had been stitched without exhibit ing anything ineic than the dimpled im pression el the stitches. Thcrj were workmen who could fell aud dimple at ere operation, and make the edge appear as well as ethers who had felled the one side and stitched the ether. It was net the characteristic of a geed weikmau te kt tl.c stitches be seen en the face of the cloth, eit'ier in dimpling or stitching. That kind.ef trade only came professionally, in vogue after " backstitchiug " was intio intie duccd, and backstitchiug must have first suggested the sewing machine. Of course, all weic net geed fellers in times of yore (although they may have been geed fel lows) ; there were geed, bad and indiffer ent then, as ethcis are new, and even seme who were "awful." Theie wcic some who would net attempt cither top felling or dimpling, because when unskill fnlly done, the effect was much worse than if net done at all. Skillful felling required all the stitches te be taken prc ci'cly of the same depth, and te be all of the same angle of inclination. Different depths' ami different angles of inclination of the stitches mere or less illustrated the work of the " bungler," according te the degicc of irrcgulaiity. Gkantkm.U". Daniel llaic Haskell died in the alms house at San Francisce en Saturday. Years age he was manager of the banking and cxpiess house of Adams & Ce., and had an income of $70,000 a year. The bank becoming embarrassed, he gave all his means te save it, lest all, and became a dtunkaid and a pauper. ! 1 The Law of Registration. Dr. Urecnc's opinion of the Act of 1881. Eds. Intelligencer : Any law made te protect sick people from being imposed upon by charlatans, cither in the form of bogus doctors, or ignorant venders of quack nostrums, is demanded in the interest of suffering and duped humanity. But a law made te ignore the rcguiarly re ceived diploma of a physician smacks of tyranny and the inquisition of etner days, Dean Wallace has jumped "out of the frjiug pin into the lire." If Dr. Wisener had in his possession his diploma, received from a regularly established medical col lege, by what power of the assumption of concentrated wisdom had the dean or the faculty any business te pass upon his med ical ability by a class examination '? Ne physician ever lived who, ten years after receiving his sheepskin, could pass the ciitical examination required of him when he received his diploma. If any 31. D. who enters Pennsylvania must pass such an examination by the faculty of Jeffersen college I assure you that you will never knew of one that has passed the ordeal. Probably if the legislators of Pennsyl vania should pass another law cre ating out of some 31. D. a Grand In quisitor, who should annually compel all ether 31. D.'s (the faculty is included) te pass a medical inspection, probably net mere than one in ten could auswer cor rectly hundreds of questions that could be easily asked them, some of which might be the lollewmg : What keeps the temperature of our bleed te 9S degrees of heat when the thermometer may stand at 10 degrees below zero ? "What is that power in the veins and capillaries that daily forces hundreds of pounds of bleed into the lungs ? Docs the same bleed forced by the hcait through the arterial system rccicate the same heart? Why is it that the muscles of the body get se tired as te compel you te take rest, when the muscles of the heart never get tiled out, or cease for ene moment their action from your birth te the end of your life '.' Hew is it that the same bleed makes the coarse tissue of the gluteal muscle and the trauspaicnt delicate cornea and erystalline lens of the eye '.' Why is it, if the curing of disease is a progressive science that smallpox, yellow and typhoid fever?, arc net emeu with any greater ceitasnty and celerity te day than they were in the dajs of Dr. .leaner?
