THE LANCAPHIRS PLATEWAY. The Liverpool correspondent of he Lea don Tiinea recently cl,. l cribedwn engineering awl commercial project*bich will be of in. terest everywhere, and of which we give a condensed account: The project is des;.gnated ' The Lancashire Plateway,' and the first 'guarantee fund in -,cludes the naMes of sonic of the leading shipowners and merchants of Liverpool Ind several of the great manufacturing firms of interior Lancashire. Broadly, ;the pro posal is to lay out a series of roadwkys radi ating from Liverpool to the centres; of man ' nfacturing industry in Soutli Lancashire, to carry along theso roadways e w doable set of ;sou plates corresponding in breSdth with 'Jse wheels of ordinary lorries of wagons, to eet the loaded wagons on this smooth plate way, and draw them by steam-traction en, ,vines to their appointed destination. Pass. ginger traffic isiexcluded from the I scope of the scheme ; 1E is confined entirely to good; and the anticipation is that it-will be possi ble to carry these at a much lower rate tttan 'is now charged by the railway companies. "The process of the plateway will be in- Initelyy,lcupler, and therefore proportion ately cheaper. The gnMds will be loaded on to the appointed wagon at the ship's side or at the warehouse door, the wagon will be drawn by horses to the nearest station of the Plateway Company, it will be linked on 0 a long train of other similar wagons,. a steam-traction engine will be placed at the head of the train, and it will haul the whole t train of vehicles along the smooth plateway to the appointed destination. At e hardier end of theplateway the traction e gine will be disconnected, horses will be yoked to the wagons, and they will at once e drawn J o to the mill-yrae. By this treatm tad the • labor and expense of repeated hipments will be obviated. The same v 'de that receives the cotton at the Live I dock pr warehOuse will deliver it into the mill with out any 'intermediate, handling.: This will be a palpable economy;.in the case of man tfactured goods-it will also be a great advan tage in the avoidance of the damage now in separable from rough usage on the railway. Bat the dispensing with frequent handling is not the sole elethent of_ economy. It is proposed to - carry the plateway into the out skirts of all' , the principal manufacturing - towns of South Lancashire ; at each there will be a stud ofhorses to take up! the work, and thus the plateway wagons will be drawn into each mill-yard without loss of time or ' cumulative charges. Al " The wa r gOns Or lorries will be:similar in constructiola to those now universally used in Lancashire ; the only difference will be in -their wheels. The front and rear axles win oe of identical width, and of the same gauge is the plateway, but in all other respects the vehicles will be suitable to ordinary road work. The plateway will consist of two. parallel rows of metals running along the preVared highway. The metals or plates will be about five Inches in breadth, and , along the smooth surface the wagon-wheels will run with ease and freedom On the - outer edge of .the plates will be a raised • flange, strong enough and high enough to prevent the train from leaving the track. In fact, the accustomed railway track is sim. ply reversed. There the rail is flat and the reu.ining flange is placed on the wheel; in the plateway. the rail or: plate carries the flange and the wheel is flat. The original idea of the promoters WftS to utilize the or. dinary highways for this system of goods traffic; but insuperable difficultiek presented themselves, and it is now 'propiased to ac quire land and lay down a special track for the plateway, similar in all respedis to the ordinary railways. There will be no necess ity, however, to make the permanent way of so substantial construction or .to have the levels co exact as in Ow case of railways. PIL 1.78 Piles' are frequently preceded 'by a sense of weight in the back, loins and lower part of the abdomen; Causing the patient to sup pose he has some affection of . the kidneys or neighboring organs. , 'At times, 'symp toms of indigestion are present, as flatuency, uneasiness of the stomach; etc. A moisture, like perspiration, producing a Avery disa greeable itching, particularly at - night after 'getting warm in bed, is a very common at tendant. Internal, External and Itching Piles yield at once to the application of Dr. Bosanko's Pile Remedy, which acts directly upon the parts affected, absorbing the Tu mors, allaying the intense itching, -and ef fecting a permanent cure where all other remedies have failed.' Do'-not delay - Motil the drain on, the system produces perma nent disability, but try it. and be cured. Price, 50 cents.

They are only found in the North Pacific islands. The best skins are valued at from one - Min fired to five hundred dollars, and are espgc ially affected by the wealthy Chinese. The Ittussian sable though 'why so named is an enigma—this poicest specimens coming from Kamschatlia—is extremely fashionable throughout the world, the fur being valued for its great beauty, and being unique from the fact that the hairs turn and lie equally well in any position. The animal is related to the weasel, pine and stone' martens, • )nink, etc., but exceeds them all in the . beauty and length of the (over-hair`; , that is long, flowing and of a rich bluish - dark I shade, wearing extremely well, the pelt be-- Eng tough and durable. Nearly 100,000 are caught, yearly at all points, bringing from . $3O tclslso a akin, and the lady who would wear's perfect set of bars from it must pay nearly $2OO. The Anierican_marten—from Labrador and Great Whalariier—ns much in demand. ' Artists', brushes are made from'the hairs of_ the tail, and for this and other purioses over 130,060 are captured yearly, valued at ' $2.5 per skin for the beat. .0f pine martens 200,0b0 are used. It is a rich breotni; being, often passed off by dishonest dOlers as Rus sian sable., In this country the better clasii of., mink 'retains its populitity, the dark chestnut browns and blacks being rich and elegant in the extreme and often passed off tiponlttfb innocent purchaser as Russian sa= ble. The dark blue, lustrous shades are most admired and come from Maine, Nova Scotia, the Miatile and Northwestern States. The trappers realize, or should, from 'ss to $25 per skin for the 250,000 animals killed . yearly, Ermine skins are now rated at about $l5O apiece, and the coat of Lords IX. was prob. ably worth at the time $2,500. One cl the most fashionable furs is that of the silver fox It is a rich, deep, glossy black, with a bluish tinge.-: So beautiful are they this! $5OO has been given for a single skin, and, La Houten states that in his time the skin of one of these foxes brought its weight in gold. Skins frequently bring $250. Of the 2,000 caught yearly, about . 1 , 000 are usedin England, and they are occasionitlly seen up on the streets of New York. y - - Cheap grades of furs are nude froni Si berian squirrel, tutiskrati, rabbits, wildcats, badger, coon and even the common domes tic cat, of which 1,000,000 and over are killed yearly ; yet' : the attentive observer about New York is often reminded and !mail to observe that the supply exceeds the demand. Other cninials used - in trim risings, etc., are lions, tigersjand bears. Of the former 500 are consumed by the trade every year, while 20,000 bearit i 500 tigers, 100,000 buffalo, 100,000 chinchillas and 6,000,000 squirrels have been and are need yearly in various branches of the trado.—N. -Y.

'After the great exhibi ion a foreigner arse to this city to buy, among other things, the tortoise shell fan that was exhibited, saying that he wished to tell his friends in the old country, wherever it was,,that he bought ihe fan in the wee State that was carved o'er with clams. The fan was probably the finest ever made in tortoise shell.. The back hair combs we speak of are beattifully curved and polished and 815 bays the best. The price for the same comb several years ago was 825. Some of them are marvels of carving. The tortoise shell, as every one knows, comes from "turtles" back,' where it grows like shingles 0n.,0400t. It is net new to this column to say that the shell is obtained by building a fire on the back of the tortoise. This ceases the tortoise to part with his shell as hurriedly as possible, when he 'retires to the waters to grow another. It may not be kaolin to the world at large that the plates of tortoise shell have adhesive qualities un der certain conditions: But they have. The plates are very thin, and for almost ill purposes several must be joined together for the required thickness.
