The Mercury says one-ninth only of the amount required now remains open, but it will be necessarily filled in a few days. Tho estimated coßt of two side-wheel steamships is from §250,000 to $300,000. It regards a tri-weekly lino tho next season, as n fixed fact. Politics In California. Horace Grcely published a letter while in California, on the politics of the State. It urged a fusion of the Republicans and Anti-Leeompton Democrats on their can didate for Congress. P. 11. Sibley (Rep.) and S. A. Booker (Anti-Lecompton Dem.) have withdrawn, and tho field left to McKibben (Anti-Lecompton Democrat) and E. D. Baker (Republican.) The Overland mail which arrived at St. Louis the night of the 25th, brings intelligence that tho fusion between the Republicans and Anti-Lecompton Democrats was a failure, and the Republican Central Com mitteo recommended the Republicans to stick to their own ticket. ♦ TELEGRAPHIC ITEMS. Albany, Sept. 20.—Tho Democratic State Committee met at Congress Hall to-night. Ex-Mayor Wood, of New York, and the following members of the Com mittee were present: C. P. Schomcrhorn, Benjamin Ray, James Souther, W. Rad ford, Matthew McMahon, J. O. Ilas brouck, Orville Clark, John A. Green, Jr., W. Baldwin and others. John A. Green, Jr., was elected Chair man of the Committee for the year, and Matthew McMahon, Secretary. Tlie resignation of Mr. Timpson for Clerk of the Court of Appeals was ac cepted, and Mr. Lewis, of Yates, was nominated to fill the vacancy. A Committee was then appointed to prepare an address to the Democracy of the State, with directions to report after the November election. A committee was also appointed to or ganize the Congressional Districts. The declination of John Cramer ns a member of the Committee was not ac cepted. The following gentlemen were appoint ed to stump the State for the State ticket: Ex-Mayor Wood, of New York, James Wadsworth, of Buffalo, and GeD. Clark, of Washington. The Committee then ad journed to meet in this city again on tho second Monday in November next. All was hopeful and harmonious. St. Louis, Sept. 25.—The Denver City correspondent of the Republican gives a statement of the shipments of gold, in various forms, by prominent business firms in Denver and Auraria, which aggre gate as follows: Receipts, $73,000; shipments, $45,000. The valuation of the gold is at the rate of sl7 per ounce, which is much below its real value. The amount of gold brought to the States by privnto individuals is included in the statement. A Mr. Gregory left Denver on the 14th for Georgia, with about $25,000. Leavenworth. Sept. 20.—The Hon. F. I’. Stanton delivered an address on Saturday night, advocating the adoption of tho Wyandot Constitution, on which the people arc to vote on the 4th of Octo ber. The indications favor the ratifica tion. Gen. Lane is again on the stump. The question of exempting from exe cution one hundred and sixty acres of land for homesteads, to actual settlers, will be submitted with the Constitution. The Republicans have colled a Conven tion at Topeka, October 12, to nominate candidates for State officers. Cincinnati, Sept. 20.—An accident oc curred on the Ohio and Mississippi Rail Road, about twelve miles below this city, on Saturday night. It was occasioned by a broken rail. One car was over turned, and tho rest wero thrown off the track. Twenty persons were injured, but only one was killed. Wool and Ha Properties. In ancient times, the people of most northern climates clothed themselves with the skins of animals. In winter the fur or wool was turned inward. This practice is continued among the peasants of Russia to this day; many of them mako UHe of sheep-skins with the wool turned inward, for their ordinary clothing in winter. These skins were called among the Saxons (from whom wo derive our language) ftlh —i. r., skins. So that, strictly speaking, the word “felting” means manufacturing a skin or covering; hut is now generally used in the same sense us the word “fulling.” The phenomena of the felting proper ties of wool loug remained a mystery.— This gave rise to many speculations as to the causo of it. It is asserted that “the surface of each fibre of wool is formed of lamellae or little plaits, which cover each other from the root to the point, myph in the same manner as the scnles of a fish I cover that animal from head to tail.” Tho edges of wool ore so hooked, or moro properly serrated, that they resem ble the teeth of a fine saw, with all the I projecting edges pointing in a direction • from root to point, and that, consequent -1 ly, in the process of fulling, the fibres 1 can move only root end foremost. I The serrations of wool are the great causes of its felting quality. But its elasticity, pliability, and the spiral curve, | contribute greatly to render it more per ■ feot. Hence the fine wool of the Barha ry sheep, which is very glossy and per \ foci in every respect, except that it wants the spiral curve, is inferia in value to the • Merino, which has many spiral curves. In ordor to complete the felting process, | the presence of soap or moisture is ne cessary ; theso add greatly to tho cohe sion of wool or fur. Hence when ololjj j or Btockings arc simply plaoed In wafer, and nro suffered to remain a considerable time, they will frequently be fulled by this means. The variations of heat from day to day will cause an alternate expanr sion and contraction of the wool, so as to cause tho felting process to proceed. By means of these qualities of wool, and the alternate prossure and relaxation of the band or machinery, tho fibre* of wool are compelled to imitate the process of weav iiTg, being driven’ root end foremost in every direotion, so as to form a solid and firm body, which cannot be unraveled, and which is far superior to what oan be obtained merely by weaving. ♦ - Merchants’ Shipping Receipts. k new lupplj; Just from the binder’s bauds neatly ruled and well bound,for sale at the BUN OFFIOK.
