Gold lace is not gold lace. It does
not deserve this title, for the gold is
applied as a surface to silver. It is
not even silver lace, for the lace is ap­
plied to a foundation of silk. The silk­
en threads for making this material are
wound round with gold wire so thick­
ly as to conceal the silk; and the mak­
ing of the gold wire is one of the most
singular mechanical operations itnag- |
inable. In the first place, the refiner i
prepares a solid rod of silver about an !
inch in thickness; he heats this rod,
applies upon the surface a sheet of gold
loaf, burnishes this down, applies an- I i
other coating, burnishes this down,
and so on, until tho gold is about one
hundredth part of the thickness of the
■diver. Then the rod is subjected to a
train of processes which brings it
down to the state of fine wire; it is
passed through holes in a steel plate
lessening step by step in diameter.
The gold never deserts the silver, but
adheres closely to it, and shares all
mutations; it is one hundredth part the
thickness of thesilver at tho beginning,
and it maintains tho same ratio to the
end. As to the thinness to which the
gold coated rod of diver can bo brought,
the limit depends upon the delicacy of
human skill; but the most remarkable
example ever known was brought for­
ward by Dr. Wolloston. This was an
example of solid gold wire without
any silver. TTe procured a small red
of silver, bored a hole through it from
end to end, and inserted in this hole
tho smallest gold wire he could pro­
cure; he su bjec ted the silver to tho us­
ual wire-drawing process, until he had
brought it to the finest attainable state
—being, in fact, a silver wire as fine
as a hair,with a gold wire in the cen­
ter. To isolate this wire he subjected
it to warm nitrous acid, by which the
silver was dissolved, leaving a gold
wire one thirty thousand part of an
inch in thinness—perhaps the thinnest
round wire that the hand of man has
yet produced. But tho wire, though
beyond all comparison finer than any
employed in manufac tories, does not
approach in thinness the film of gold
on the surface of silver and gold lace.
It has been calculated that the gold on
| the very finest silver wire for gold lace,
is not more than one-third of one mill­
ionth of an inch In thickness—that is,
not above one-tenth thickness of or­
dinary gold loaf.

has gone into yachting, and ho will
shortly add to our superb pleasure ma­
rine tho largest steam yacht on thia
><ido of the Atlantic. She will posse*«
several novelties in construction, and
■»he is intended to excel tn Internal ar­
rangements and speed as well as size.
She is to ho built by Ward.^Stantou A
Co., of Newburgh. The contracts were
signed on yesterday, and work is to
•ommonce at once. The yacht is to k «»
one hundred und sixty feet in length
•»vor all, with an extreme breadth of
nearly tweuty-seveu feet. She will
draw about twelve feet when loaded,
ind which will make her a stable craft.
Iler engines are to bo compound, of

ter is to be a grand saloon tweuty-five

Three commodious staterooms for
guests are to forward on the port side.
On tho starboard side is to be a large
stateroom for the owner, with bath
room and toilet room attached, the
bath to be arranged for hot, cold, and
*«alt water. The yacht is to bo fitted
up in the finest style as regards joiner
work and upholstery. It is expected
that the yacht will bo completed some
time this Fall, at a cost of nearly $100,-
<100. Mr. Boucicault will probably
go on an extended cruise in Seutheru
waters, and he may possibly cross the
Atlantic.

that there are arli«an families in India

not only tilled the same fields, but have
gone into them and left them at
the same hour according to the season,
from a period before the birth of Christ.
They have no wish for a change, no
ambition to do better, no inclination to
roam, no sense of failure, because they
are as their forefathers were and as
their sons will be.
