I THE COLUMBIAN AND DEMOCRAT, BLOOMSBURGr COLUMF COUNTY, Piu i J1 1 i I In the Tannery. Almost uvory ono lma ecrn n tnnnory generally nti unadorned wooden Mtuctnro : invnrlnbly painted leather color to correspond with tho exhausted bark which, with lawn-liko smoothness, covers thd land about tho buildings. Its Interior, with beams unfinished, tins n doubtful-looking floor, and tho planks lookns treacherous as looso brioks in n rhlladel)hla sldo walk. Stand on which planks you will, thoy aro all movable, and aro merely temporary coverings tor unsavory-looking liquids. in -vaia or " pus, wniou, to say tno least, aro uninviting bath-tubs. In old times tanneries were largely "local In dustries," and in such near-by inoun tain regions as tho Herkshires or tho Catskill tho summer explorer discovers in hnlt-cliokcu vats, or picturesque, tumble-down, deserted buildings, vest! lies of n nettv industry which flourish ed till all tho accessible trees had been cut or reoklcusly robbed of their hark, and then disappeared, to glvo way to hucn modern centres ot trado as l'ea body, Massachusetts. Ilichcr up in tho mountains aro still to bo found half-rotted piles of timber or bark, Btrandcd when the tide of industry ebbed away. Let our hides como to tho tannery "wet salted." Tho ropes are cut, and tho hides arc put into tho great sunken boxes underneath the lloor to soak in "water-pits" lor a few days. This "process cf water1' is necessary for soaking, milling, and softening tho hide to get it into condition to receive the bark. After soaking, tho hides aro hung over a wooden "horse," nnd cut through tho back to soparato them into "sides." Sorao tanners then place them in the vats, and cover them up to tnko a "warm sweat" or a "cold sweat," tho pungent moisturo from the hides loosening tho haii and scurf. Tho common method, however, is to placo tho hides for a fow days in a solution of limo and water, not, so stronc as to let tho skin get "limo burned." This "liming" not only plumps, or swells, tho hide, but if a skin is beginning to decomposo or decay, tends to presorvo it for tanning. After tho hair-loosening the besmeared tip-cart again makes its appearance, splashed and spattered insid'o and out, driven by men whoso business it is to spatter and bo spatter ed reody to take a load to tho beam houso. "Beaming," or unhairing, derives its name from an inclined convex wooden form called a "beam," on which tho hido is spread during tho operation. A blunted piece of iron, known ns a "hide-worker," similar to a draw shave, easily removes the hair after tho hide is taken from tho water where it was "dumped" after tho liming. Tho beam store, bending to their task, look as if they had taken in a largo week's wash ing, and but for unsavory odors a beam-room might pass for a laundry. Tho hides aro next "trimmed" with a knifo to remove all tho hard, harsh, or unnecessary parts on the edge of the skin aro cut off as they are so much thicker than the rest of the skin that they would seriously interfere in tho future processes of obtaining an even tannage, and also in an economical use of the purchaser. The hides next pass into a queer-looking contrivance known as a "pin-wheel," a stout circu lar wooden box, in which they are ohurned about in warmish water, dropping upon stout wooden pins at tached to the circumference. Tho mis sion of the lime, to preserve tho hide and loosen the hair, is accomplished, and this washing in warm water is a preparation for "drenching," the first process of uulimiming. To an observer it might seem that the whole process has been such a ser ies of drenchings that moro is unneces sary. To "drench," however, tho hides are placed for six or eight hours in vats filled with a dissolved excrement, above which a line of large wooden "England wheels" like the paddle- wheels ot a steamer in their revolu tion turn them over and over in the so lution. Tho drenched hides, when ta ken from this "bate," are a second time worked over a beam, to remove the lime thoroughly and get them into the best possible condition to receive tho bark. To tread tho wholesome- looking ground bark whicli covers tho ap proach to tho tan vats after leaving tho slippery, slimy, uncertain floor of tho beam-room, is almost a luxury. The deep-oolored "liquor," of ground oak or hemlock bark and water, looks inviting after tho indescribable mix tures thus far used. Most tanners buy bark, which is now sold compresed like hay, ond grind it in a "bark mill," leaching the bark to obtain tho liquor, but some use extracts. Tho hideB to bo oolored or tanned, looking unnat urally white alter their thorough cleansings, aro placed in tanks of bark liquor to bo "handled" by tho revolu tions of another England wheel, as in the drenching treatment. Becoming slightly colored, they are placed in largo piles for a day or two to get them seasoned to take" tho bark. The plank flooring is removed from one of these long systems of vats, where the hides aro laid away in strong bark liq nor to receive tho tannage. As each hide is pread out in the vat it is cov ered with some ground bark wet with water as carefully ai a good housewife rinkles with sugar lier choicest pre- ye.".

Gutting Down tho Hay Mow. lho usual purposo in ctiltlnjr down n hay mow in winter, is to mnko tho woikof pitching tho hay oft easier than when tho whole mow is bound to gcther, hut there should bo an object runner tiiiin this, nnd that object to prevent having lho poorest hay for sprint: feedinir. As soon ns grass starts in April, do incstio animals loso nppetllo for dry feed, and it Is at this season that thoy kiiouiu navo lho best lodder. Work ing horses, and milch cows especially, should have at that tiinu the best dry ieeu mat the tnrm has produced. It is a good plan to cut down tho mow, so that the bottom of the samo will bo reached at mid winter i this if old, nnd has lost n portion of its mi tr'tion should bo thoroughly mixed with tho bright hay ot tho top ol tho mow, and llavorcd by sprinkling with lho salt water, and common!. This wo have done with liood results. In writing this,tho assumption is that ineru mis been, year nttcr year, a coat' ing of n few tons, moro or less, loft ly Ititr. in tho bed of the mow. for it Is very seldom that lho demands of stock nnd tho supply ot iodder comes out evenly, and now nnd then tho farme will Iw untight with the poorest hay of ins uiiuru siorage leu wr spring ieeu ing. When tho foundation of tho hay is wen up ttom the ground, and has a coating of clean straw, tho bottom of this may bo as good as any pan of it, mn it is senium tnai wo unit an aver ago quality there, and for two rea sous, i'lrst, tho grass put in earl v is moro succulent than that cut later, and is moro likely to hent and mold s and Bccond, tho damp winds sweepinc bo neath mo barn during tho wet season ...!tl , . . . ... . r . . win ueiraci moro oriessirom the nutri ment of tho hay. Of courso all these things can bo averted, but they aro not always done ; ttierctorc tho suggestion to cut tho mow. After tho base of tho first fed part is reached, it should bo prepared for re ceiving hav from tho remaining part, thoroughly cleaned out and covered with straw. We would not suircest mrowing down tho top ot tho mow into this place, for probably tho last nay put m was not as cood as that cut a week previous. Tho tanner can tell when he comes to nn extra veiu. and that should be tho fodder preserved tor spring use. It is tho habit of sonic to deposit a ion or two upon tho scaltold over tho stable for lato feeding, but wo do not behove tho plan cotnendable, for the gases arising from tho stable will con taminate, to a greater or less extent, tho fodder above. If feed is stored on tho scaffolding, it should bo fed first. that it may escape tho stable gases and odors. It is not a bad plan to deposit the poorest hay made in this place, and use it in cold weather by cutting and sprinkling with corn or oatmeal. i rioitne a?uc Manner. The New Orleans Exposition. The opening of tho New Orleans Exposition, or World's Fair, is an event full of significance, and it may well bo celebrated with roioioinmi throughout the whole Union, and moro especially at tho South. Tho successful completion of lho great un dertaking marks, we trust and believe, tho beginning of a now era of Southern piosperity. It shows that tho Southern ooonle. instead of being deficient in enterprise, us nas ueen so oiten charged against them by their Northern critics, have been able to successfully carrv throuih a scheme whicli had been abandoned by New York and Boston because of the lack of publio interest in it, or be cause Us Northern managers wero do- fitient in zeal and courage. The nro- jectors of the New Orleans Exposition have had to encounter extraordinary obstac.es from tho very start, but they nave surmouuted them bravely, and patiently proceeded to perfect their ar rangements for one of tho most remar kable of tho whole series of World's Fairs. It will be peculiar, because it will for tho first time bring prominently he foro tho attention of the world tho re sources of a region of boundless natu ral wealth and of extraordinary possi bilities of development. It will show lo lho Northern States especially that their Southern countrymen have left far behind them lho passious of the war and all merely sectional jealousies in their eager pursuit of material prog ress. Tho South invites tho North moro particularly to become acquainted by personal inspection with tho social and industrial situation there, nnd with the opportunities which its wide territory offers to capital and enterprise. It will display a variety of products and evidences and proofs of mineral and agricultural resources which must pro voke surprise bmh at home and abroad. IJitherto, though pleasure travel thith er lias much increased of recent years, the South, as it actually is, has been lit tlo understood at tho North. 'To tho great mass of our people as it is known only as it has been pictured by politi cal enemies, or as friendly imaginations may have conceived it to be. Now the South calls on all to como and see for themselves, to study for themselves its social and political 'spir it, anil to observe its industrial temper and capacities, and tho wealth with which nature has endowed it. The season, too, is ono in whicli travel southward is always grateful, even when no such extraordinary induce ments aro offered ; and therefore, we expect to see thu invitation accepted ly many thousands, whoso visit to No Orleans will doubtless help to strengthen tho growing community of feeling between the two pails of tho Union. But, bi sidis its dUplay of Southern products, which form its most interest nig ami distinguishing feature, tint New Orleans Exposition will oiler in compaiison with llieiu a collection of the best works of all home and foreign industry and skill which will b of ex traordinary attractiveness.

AND METHODS 01' TIIK.ATMKNT. Messrs. Charlton T. Lowls nnd U. A. McCurdy, of tho Prison Associa tion of Now York, hnvo recently ex amined tho prison system which now prevails generally throughout England and Wales. They rcpoit that among Its most distinctive features nro : 1. Tho giadual ilisuso of short terms of imprisonment, substituting ns far as practlcablo other punishments in thu placo of brief sentences, and tho improvement of lho jails by employing all inmates in some profitable form of labor. 2. Tho classification of convicts, necording to their conduct, after hav ing served n period of nt least nine months in solitary confinement with conrsu food, hard bed mid other severi ties. This put t of lho discipline is so dreadful that it is believed lo have u powerful deteircnt influenco on tint ciiraiunl class. No ono Is sentenced to penal servitude for less than five years. After tho lirst period of severe liscipltne, tho prisoner enters upon another phnso of prison life which is less exaoting. By good conduct earn ing a certain number of credit mmks, ho may bo promoted to another class with greater privileges, and by similar efforts to a third. In this way thu length of his term may bo considera bly shortened. To be mulcted of this time, or to bo degraded lo u lower class, nro considered thu severest pun ishments. Flogging cannot bo admin istered by any olliccr of the prison, but only by tho visiting justices. li. Tho labor of the convicts is eu tirely for the Government, tho publio account system. I ho labor is ot tho greatest variety and id not conducted with relereuco merely to immediate fi nancial success. Tho government ol thu prisons is entirely m charge of tho Secretary of State for Homo Affairs All oflicers from tho highest to tho lowest aro np pointed solely for their qualifications, not ono of them being dependent on political lniuicncp. ims system, whicli is largely tho re sult of tho labors ol Sir Walter Crof ton, Is lho culmination of tho work of prison reform during the last forty years. What is the result of all this thought, discussion and self-denying toil 1 As the new state of tilings did not become general until tecently, of courso tho lull effect cannot yet bo measured by statistics, liut t'.ie tig ures as they are given may fill us with astonishment, iuiglnnd and Wales in 1844 had a population of over 10,000,- 000. Taking an average of five years about that time, wo find that thero wore overy year 3J33 persons sen tenced to penal servitude and 15,783 sentenced to shorter terms iu local jails. England and Wales in 1881 had a prpulation ot over 2o,000,000. If criminal convictions kept pace witli tho population wo should hnd in that year over 0,000 penal convictions nnd over 25,000 shorter sentences. Instead of this wo have in 1881 only 1,525 penal convictions and 9,200 shorter senten ces. It tho general administration of justice is as efficient in tho arrest and conviction of criminals in our day as it was torty years ago, then thero aro moro than 20,000 persons iu ordinary occupations unsupported by the State, who would fiavo been under the old system actually confined in jails or prisons. Wheu we lament the preva lence of crime wo ought to bear in mind these facts. It is evident that there has been great amelioration of tho condition ot the worst in Great Brittaiu. Much of this is owing to tho general improvement iu tho condi tion of all classes, to benevolent and ehgious activities ana to other causes. But much also is due, doubtless to this prison system, which is singularly tree from tho scntimentalism which has tended to muko punishment a mock- Prenoh Pisher Folk. Tho mussel of tho channel coast is ono of its most daiutv products. The tide leaves it clinging in clusters among tho sea-weed to tho hidden rocks. Twice a day it seems to have blossom ed and boruo Iruit, liko a miraculous plant iu tho groat garden of the sea. lho mussel gatherer with her sharp knifo detaches ihcm and throws them into her basket. To tho dull eyo slime, weed, shells, all is vague, but sho works with that sort of instinct that is bred in our own manufactories. The mussel ground, liko the washing pool, is the villago newspaper and Dorcas society. The younger women and tho older gossips gather together, and the noiso or their chatter rises abovo tho sound of tho waves ; tho doings of the villago are discussed, and tho presenco of tho stranger offers opportunity to tho villago wit to exercise her powers of humor under breath and to tho uu- pialified delight of her neighbors. uown thu cults and among tho rocks como tho cails, drawn by stout Normau horses. Tho women throw tho cords around their necks, and dox tcrously swinging tho heaping baskets on their backs, carry them to tho caits. ueturning empty, they begin their work again until the tide comes creep ing in and drives them shoreward, working ns thoy go. Tho shrimper is always a lonely figure, following tho tide through pools kneo deep, waving her net like a great winged bird. Tho labor is light, but each sweep of her vigorous arm and tho dip of her net iu tho wnter is tho throw ol a die. That element of uncertainty which accompa nies so closely tho fisherman's calling drives her on until stout legs and arms aro weary. Tho deep, cone-shaped net comes up humming, and, as lho water drops iu shining showers, her eager eyes pter into its depths. The shrimp is her silver and gold. Tho sliming cruvelte is thu stake for which she plaj, and now tho caprio'toid waves line her net with its Mlvy gleam, mid now fill it with wortls refuse. Jurpcr't Magazine, las. II.
