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. tions, Fancy Goods, Glassware, Crockery, Musical Instruments, Bird Cages, Station F ormation of C haracter . — If ery, Pocket and Table Cutlery, Albums, Toys, Candies, Nuts, etc., which will be sold you ever watched an icicle as it formed at the cheapest rates.

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 tho best typo. Two masts, square rigged, forward will carry a large She Is to be quantity of canvas, built principally of oak. In the cen- ter is to be a grand saloon tweuty-five feet square, as w ide, and hallas long is that of many ocean stea mship*. 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. A cquitted .—Billy Bangs is the ter ror of delinquent debtors in Philadel phia.
