' - In the manufacture of - muslin, the Hhitioeii atirpase . all other lie6Ple, is tizitin - the mennhicture of - the - shaill. Theis is a chtse Of Muslin termed woven air," the fab ric of which is so iiiivillotiq' fine that the Hindoos themselves are: fond 'cif relather, itll_kinds of string! ;theo, ries respecting it. Mr. Bolt; in his "tkeisiderntion of Affairs of India," spakinvif the Neck towline, says that according to report, the Emperor Aurunglibee once "whe angry with lis daughter for showing her . skin through her clothes, whereupon 'the yii. Prin. ceiel remonstrated in her tneWciaticei, 'that she had seven japliths, or suits, on ; another tale vise to the effect that, "in the Nabob_ Allaverdy, lilk. wan's time, a weaver was "chastised and turned out of the ',city of.Dacee for his neglect in not preventing. his cow from, eating up .a. piece of %bro• van,' which lie had spread and left upon the, grass," the muslin,of course, being so fine that the animal could not See it k u i pon the herbage. So 'deli ate is the manufacture of the short' taple of the Dacca cotton, that it can only be woven into yarn at certain times of the day. The morning is generally so empioyedbe, fore the dew has left the grass ;- it spipning is carried on after that time, the spinner, who is alwnii a woman under thirty years of age, spins the yarn over a pan of water, the evapo ration of which affords sufficient mois ture to prevent the fibres from becom ing to brittle to handle. Delicate as toe muslin . 'is, it will sash, which European muffins will not. The dura bility of the Dacca muslin,' notwith standing its surprising fineness, a piece of "evening dew," one yard wide and four.yards long,only weigh ing 550 grains—is said to be owing , to the greater number of twistagiven to the Dacca.*arii, .as compared with ' the' finest muslin yarns of England or France. The time taken to spin and weave the threads in a piece of "wo ven air" is very great ; the reader , will not, therefore, be surprised to hear that it sells at the rate of a guinea a yard. I ' The "Abroven," or "Bunning Wa ler," is considered the sec o nd claim of muslin . ; -_ 4 Sabaum," or "Evening Dew," is the third quality ? It is so called because it is so fine that it can scarcely be - distiriguishedi from dew upon the' grips.\ There are several other very fine_ Dacca mans that are known by distinctive names, but the, three so 'poetically designatea are the most famone. The Daghdhobees, who remove iron mould from this pre, clone material, use the juice of the amroold piant fors that purpose ; and to remove- other 'spots ' or stains, a Hine composition of ghel, hint! and mineral alkali. There are Mahomedans who also repair, this . "woven sir" with a skill equal to that of the Hindooitati who weaves it. For instance, it is said that an expert banger, or dar ner, "can extract a thread twenty yards.long feint' a piece of the ,finest muslin of the same dimensions ; and' replace it' with one of the finest qual ity." It is said that they execute their finest work under the influence of opium. . - A still more exquisite and expen sive mirk of the Indian loom is the figured inuelin. ' A piece of this fab ric, measuring twenty yards, made in 1716, cost as much as £56. The splend* yet subdued effect of Weav ing gol and silver threads into the differe fabrics - made in India has never ever been approached by Euro peans. ' Some of their silks have a sheen upon them like the break of a pigeon, or indeed of the' Impeyan pheasant.

The rapidity with which the disease progresses to a fatal. conclusion is remarkable, in , some instances not more than four hours elapsing be-, tween the 'attack-and the death of the patient. In other 'eases the patient has lingered for several days and in a leas violent phase of the malady a eickness‘ of several weeks has been followed by recovery.
