The programme of exercises, al though quite lengthy, - gave unbounded satisfaction to all present, and all who were" given parts in it acquitted them selves in an excellent manner. Mrs. Olney's readings must be listened to in order to be fully appreciated. It was the unanimous expressed Opinion of all who card her on the evening named, that as a lady elocutionists she has no equal. 'While all of her 'selections were given with the grace and easoof the true artist, the Court Scene from tile Merchant s of Venice, was especially fine in its render ing, „eliciting the heartiest of encores.

The above is a mistake. Prof. Clark, of Syracuse, at the head of the survey, was in town last week, and - stated, what was generally known two.years ago, that the only object of the .resurvey was to trace nut and ascertain i r„ - the condition of the old' line, both as to its exact location and -the monuments by which it-was marked ; that the law under which they were acting gave no authority whatever for any change of line. He further stated that the old line was crooked, varying some places to the extent of 4 mile or more ;. but that at Waverly the line is. very close indeed to the 42d parallel. The observatidas made durikg the Sum mer by the C. - S. Coast Surveybrs, may vary it a trifle. No new line, however, will be established, unless the legisla tures of the two States should hereafter authorize it.— Warerly Advocate.

ATHENS' INDUSTILIE3-80. 1 We purpose giving to the readers of the REPORTEIT a seriesof sketches embodyink the results of our visits to the different manufacturing establishinents of this place. Yesterday we visited upon the hest side of the river THE ATHENS TANNERY, whiCh was established in the spring of 1867 by Mw;srs. MAnter. & UsnmuittE, young men from New-iir. The firm was afterwards changes, awl ErnEsE rlvristnuttt. became propp:stor, Mr. MAlT tucr. retiring. Soon gteward Mr. Nonut, a Ni-York man, became a partner, and the company was known as UNDER HILL & Nonm?.. The' presetit proprietors took possession ( - )either Ist, 1818, the firm style -being Tnos. SNIKLLS' * Sons. These gen tlemen kayo 'greatly enlarged the build ings, and fly improved methods increased the capacity for tinning out leather ; the original design being to turn out the pro duct of 1:4000 hides yea'rly, while the present company use :30,000. •We cannot give the exact size of the buildings, but they are large. One eon taing4l6B vats, another is Used for drying the leather, and between those the ones necessary for the powerful engine; bark mill, leaching vats, soaking, washing, scrubbing, etc. Five barrels of paint were recently used to paint them. Begides these there .are several tenant houses, a barn, stOre and office ; also sheds for stor ing When the amount of business is ;stated the reader will readily perceive' 'that a larp;e amount of room is beets sa r y to windily% it. About 5,000 tons of hark are used yearly ; it. is obtained in this and adjoining ,counties. either from timber belonging to the clmipany or of other par ties, in small lots, brought in on_ wagons or enr-load,7delivercd on their switch. Large quantities are now stored in the yard. A very important and particular blanch of the business is the selection and purchase of the bides: They are from all parts of the world, and consist of those suitable , for making sole-leather only. From the Banos of Venezuela; the pam pas of Uruguay, the plains of Chili and „the prpries of the United _Slates, they find thev,way to the centres of commerce and theilte to the tanneries. Both gre'ini slaughtered and dry bides are used, , but those first named are preferred. As' peculiarity of trade, we notice a smalot that were originally from ('hili ; thence Shipped- toLiverpw,l, England ; thenCe to Boston, Mass,,, where they lay six months; then shipped' to New-York, where Mr. SMULLpiCkecl them up, and now they are nearly ready to skip back to England to sole, perhaps, some sailors shoes, and re sume their travels. As has been stated, only sole-leAer-is made here, and the present limn ha the repUta,tion of making a tirst-class article ; therefore, their product goes to , Europe, :Old they receive first-class 444ces for it. A car had just beeeff - rled - "for the con tents of which. the companyrill receive over .1.5,000 in gold up ai fts arrival in New-Taz.k. They will ship about one million pounds of leather, worth nearly, tt,'250,000 at Tresent prices, this year. Another product brings to them quite au income, viz : the hair.. This is thoroughly washed and dried and sent to New-York, , where it will find its way into mattresses, cushions, etc Of the process of tanning we cannot, in au article of this kind,' give scientific details. Much ignorance exists regarding present methods, and as great skill and care is requirekfto produce best results, comparatively few attain them. The hides are fikst soaked, then hung in a sweat room until the hair will rub off. • This is a very delicate provers, and 4 unless man aged right the Itikle is damage'd at tie outset—if lefft t'oo hatg, the gi'ftis injur ed, if removed too soon the has :hill not come out evenly and the ForeAvill not open, the roots of the hair being deft after. scranipg. After leaving the sweat-room the Lair is kfcrapcd ofl and the hides . plumped, a process of follieg, up and opening the poielz,; afteithich they go into vats containing a -weak liquor, -from which in due time they are passed into stronger until the strongest is reached,' when they are taken out and washed and scrubbed. Each step in this process is one of care, for by placing in too strong a, liquor at first the hide would not, absorb enough to make it of the required thick and if not changed at the proper time damage would result. The liquor spoken of contains the virtue of the bark, which is obtained by a leaching process after the hark is gfound and placed in vats for the purpose. The strength is measured : by a simple instrument and reckoned by degrees, varying from ten to forty-live, according to the proporthon of tannin it contains. After ithe hides are removed from the vats they are scrubbed and washed thoroughly had _sent tO the drying lofts, after which they are twice oiled and twice tolled before they are fin ished. These are also pall icular processes, requiring constant attentiod, as changes in the temperature affect the drying pro cess. Many of the derails are secrets or the trade, add- manufacturers have differ ent ways peculiar to thonselv - e. The first sweating process sykken.of is simply to produce a stage of decompositiUn suf ficient to loosen the hair ; other processes . afterward give color, elasticity, etc., to the, father, and to give minute particu lars would require a lengthy article. Acids are used in the prkicess of plump -img, and in all the processes care is re: quired, as the least:neglect will slow in the product. About six mouths are re quired to pmluce best ‘ results.
