Tribune, whon Douglas left hin
(Jretin Mountain home for Illinois,
his groat rival, Lincoln, wan keeping
a postoffice, fresh from tie glories of
(lie Black Tfawk war; Andrew. John
son was mayor of a little mountain

Davis, a lieutenant of dragoons, was
chasing the Indians ; Seward wan

Ilreckinridgo was studying the ora-*

S outh k un M a n u k a ctiirkh .—The
Knox ville Commercial says we wore
yostorday shown two piece« of jeann
at tbn new factory, adjoining tbe
Franklin House, that surpasses in
finennss any wo over before saw.
This cloth was woven on one of
those nt'w looms that are operating
tiit-re. Thure is a most encouraging
fact in this paragraph. A Knox ville
factory makes the finest jeans at the
first trial. Formerly, when goods
wore wrought by hand work alone,
it took many years to qualify a peo
ple for excellence in any fabric. Now
that manufactures are made by ma
chinery, tho fabric is mado as per
fectly at first as afterwards, and the
art ici* produced at Knoxville, from a
tnachine imported from Philadelphia,
is precisely the same an if the ma
chine had been set up in Cham*
hers burg.
The Wati; it Supply op London.
At present a largo portion of the
water, amounting to 108,000,000 gal
lons daily, used for the supply of
London, is pumped by steam-power
from rivers, streams and wells in and .
near that city, tho aggregato strength
of the engines employed being 10,790
horse power. It is now proposed to
abandon several of the existing
waterworks, and to bring a supply
adequate for the great city at the
close of the present century, when its
population is expected to reach
4,, r )00,000 persons, from the sources
of the river Severn and the moun
tains of Wales, the aqueduct for this
purpose being constructed across the
jntiro breadth of England.
FT If wo believe the Paris letter
writers, Napoleon III. has tbe in
flammatory rheumatism, diabetes,
lyspepsia, Blight's disease, Smith 's
disease, sciatic gout, aurora borealis»
integral calculus, and several other
things ; he was also almost poisoned
at Vicbey ; but he manages to sur
vive all, even Bismarck's dose of
Prnssic acid.
