Concert l>y Mrs. Annie T. Sholl.
Our musical readers will be gratified
to learn that we are to be favored with
a grand entertainment from two such
artistes as Mrs. SllOl.l. and Prof. Viewer.
They are both citizens of Savannah, and
the Republican, in alluding to their in
tended tour, says: “We learn it is the
inteniion of our accomplished towns
woman, Mrs. Annie Sholl, to make a
tour, at an early day, through some of
the neighboring cities, for the purposeof
giving a series of vocal and instrumen
tal concerts in each. Without a .wordl
of solicitation on her part, we would j
take occasion to say a word of introduc- 1
tion to those who are unacquainted j
with her extraordinary musical powers:
“Mrs. Sholl has a voice, which, in
sweetness, flexibility and compass, is
not excelled, even by those who have
filled the Union with their praises. She
was a pupil of Dr. Hodges, and has cul
tivated her rare talent with great assi
duity and success. We feel no hesita
tion in pronouncing this judgement and
leaving her to verify it before any intel
ligent American audience.
“Mrs. Stole will be accompanied in
her professional tour by Mr. Cake \ ie- :
■weg, an eminent pianist, who is, him
self, a master in the art. We cheerful- J
ly commend them to the kind atten
tions of the press and public.”
The Mornimj jYcii’S says : “Welearntliat
it is tlio intention of Mr. Vieweg and
Mrs. Anrie T. Sholl to give a vocal and
instrumental concert in Augusta next
week. To the Savannah public it
would lie unnecessary for us to say any
thing in commendation either of tire
musical talent of the gentleman or the
vocal powers of the lady. XV e may,
however, say to our Augusta friends
that both are of a high order. Mrs. I
iSholi possesses a pure mezzo-Soprano i
voice of rare compass and surpassing
sweetness with 0. thorough cultivation.
Both us a vocalist and as a lady she
enjoys the esteem and admiration of
our public, whose good wishes will go 1
with her on her professional tour. Mr.
Vieweg is a musician of the highest at- j
tainments and amost accomplished mas-1
ter of the Piano. We commend them 1
to the favorable regard of our Augusta
friouds.

Those citizens, who depend upon Hy
drant water, furnished by one of the
tine of logs that convey the water from
the 7’urkni-U Spring, have been much
troubled tins winter,by the supply of wa
ter gradually,diminishing in quantity.
At last the water failed entirely, and
upon investigating the cause, it was
found that the root of a pine tree had ’
penetrated at the end of a log, and in
creased gradually in size, till it had
finally burst the log. Mr. Lawson, the <

has now the root in his possession, it

Cure for Cancers.
We find the following statement of a
cure for cancers, in the Milwaukee True
Democrat. If it is what it is claimed to
lie, it is a discovery of great value, and
we advise our readers, to preserve a pa
per containing it :
Some eight months ago, Mr. T. i).
■ Mason—who keeps a music store on
j Washington street, and is brother of the
J well known Lowell Mason—ascertained
S that he had a cancer on his face of the
j size of a pea. It was cut out by Dr.
Wolcott and the wound partially heal
ed. Subsequently it grew again, and
while he was in Cincinnati on business
it attained the size of a hickory nut.
He has remained there since Christmas
under treatment, and lias come back
perfectly cured. The process is this :
A piece of sticking plaster was put
over the cancer, with a circular piece
cut out of the centre a little larger than
the cancer, so that tho cancer and a
small circular rim of healthy skin next
to it was exposed. Then a plaster made
of chloride of zinc, bloodroot and wheat
flour was spread on a piece of rnusiin of
the size of this circular opening and ap
| plied to the cancer for twenty four hours.
1)n removing it the cancer will be found
[to be burnt into,and appear of the color
I and hardness of an oldshoesole, and the
- circular rim outside of it will appear
j white and parboiled, as if scalded by
] hot steam. Tie: wound is now dressed,
' and the outside rim soon suppurates
and the cancer comes out a hard lump,
: and the place heals up. The plaster
\kills tiie cancer, so that it sloughs out
, like dead flesh, and never grows again. —
This remedy was discovered "by l)r. Fell
!of London, and has been used by him
'forsix or eight years, with unfailing
! success, and not a case has been known
of the re-appearance of thecancer where
| this remedy has been applied. It lias j
i the sanction of the most eminent phys- j
I icians and surgeons of London, hut, has i
'not recently been used in this country, !
and many of the faculty, with their pro
, verbiul opposition to innovations, look
i upon it with distrust. We saw Mr.
Mason at church yesterday, and have
. j since conversed with him, and took par
: ticnlar notice of the cicatrized wound,
! and we can only say that if the cure is
i permanent—and, from the evidence of
] six or eight years’ experience in other
I cases, we have no doubt it is —the reine
|dy ought to be universally known. We
1 have referred to this case, because Mr.
| Mason is well known, both here and at
the East. The experiment excited much
interest in Cincinnati, and we call the
J attention of the faculty in this State to
* the remedy. If it is what is claimed
for it. this terrible disease will be shorn
of most of its terrors. The application
jis painful, but the pain is of compara
tively brief duration, which any one so
! afflicted would cheerfully endure.

“ Here, you little rascal, walk up

had better go to bed.”

Hoop Skirts.
The term “ Crinoline,” although pro
perly belonging only to skirts manufac
tured of hair and thread, is now com 1
monly used to designate all classes and 0
conditions of expul sive female under
garments, of whatever material. In
this country, the genuine article is not
frequently met with a cheaper substi
tute, in which hoops are made to
give the desired amplitude of peri
phery, being better suited to the means
of our fair community at large. These
hoop skirts were first brought into fa
vor in New York, through the enter
prise of two young dry goods dealers of
that city, who, some half dozen years
ago, set their wits to work to take ad
vantage of the growing demand for
crinoline. Many methods for supply
ing tills popular demand has been ad
vised—the original crinoline being far
too expensive to be indulged in by the
many—hut the substitutes invented and
manufactured by those two dealers were
the only ones that at all satisfied pub
lic want; even their first attempt was
only partially successful, the article still
being too dear for tlie mass of wearers,
but in good time they hit upon tlie idea
of the skeleton skirt,constructed of hoop
which, although at first derided and
plentifully abused, rolled itself rapidly
into universal favor, and its inventors
and proprietors into a fortune. It is
believed to be a fact, that the hoop
skirt was made by the firm in question,
then in Canal street, New York, about
six years ago.
Since that time, the hoop skirt, like
ail modern institutions, has undergone
various changes ahd improvements, un
til at last the principle of construction 1
seems to have become finally establish- .
ed. The “crinoline” of the present day
is no crinoline at all, hut a number of
steel hoops of different degrees of cir- .
cumference, large near the hem of the \
skirt, and decreasing in regular grada
tion as they approach the waist, which
are held in place by strips of tape, form
ing tlie skeleton, or a somewhat more
elegant style, are inserted in light mus
lin, scientifically cut and fashioned into
the true symmetrical form. Great dif
ficulty was at first experienced—there
are difficulties to be overcome in all in
ventions—in obtaining proper material ,
for the hoops themselves. Rattan prov- '
ed to bo clumsy, stiff and unmanageable;
whalebone was found excellent in warm
weather, but liable to snap short in win
ter; gutta percha, which can be applied
to almost auy use, failed in this connec
tion ; brass wire coiled around cord was •
tried, but was too expensive ; flat bands
of brass had their turn, but did not ,
possess tlie necessary elasticity, and in- 1
convenienced tlie wearer; finally steel |
was looked upon as a dernier resort, but
was thought entirely too costly. It was
nevertheless used, at first by flattening
round steel wire, which failed to give ,
satisfaction, on account of its liability
to break, except where it was so large
as to be heavy and too expensive.
The method at last adopted, and
which is now in use, is this : English
sheet-steel, that comes four and a half
to eight feet long, in bands about eight
inches wide, is cut into ribands by
1 steam-driven shears. These ribands are
tempered and straightened, and after
wards smoothed and polished by the
following ingenious process: They are
put into a long cylinder with a quanti
ty of old broken glass, and the cylin
' der set revolving for some hours.—
When opened it is found that the glass
is all ground into small cubes, and the
’ rough edges of tlie steel rounded and
’ made smooth. Last of all the ribands
’ arc passed between large, heavy rollers,
i which set the temper and leave them so
that they will always return to their
, place when bent. After these prepara
tions they have only to bo made ready
J for the skelton pattern, by being cover
' ed with cotton thread braided over the
| steel.
Some statistics of tlie extent of busi
’i ness of these two manufacturers before
' j mentioned, and tlie amount of material
’ j used by their employees, cannot fail to
boos interest. In the department where
' the skirts are wrought together and fin
' ished, (the steel work is a separate af
fair, and is carried on Connecticut,
where sixty hands are employed,) they
give occupation to four hundred per
-1 sons, nearly tue whole of them Ameri
. can girls, one hundred and eigli v of
whom are ut work upon sewing ma
-1 chines which, with the hand sewing,
use up every month two thousand do
' zeu spools of cotton thread. An aver
' age of three thousand skirts are man 11-
1 factored every day, at prices varying
1 from 50 cents to $6 a piece, and com
prising more than fifty patterns. The
J latest style is worth describing—it will
boos profound interest to feminine, al
-1 though mysteriously incomprehensible
1 to masculine, readers. It is a skeleton
made of thirteen and a half yards of
* inch-wide tape, and three yards of nar
row tape and some strips of muslin,and
three and a half yards of corset lacing,
with fifty-one metal clasps, slides, tubes
' eyelets and hooks,and seven steel hoops
measuring fifty-four feet in length, cov
! ereil with braid ; with three bustle
■ hoops of whalebone, eight and a half
feet long,cloth covered —the steel hoops
being made to expand by slides, to suit
: the most expansive ideas ; and yet the
' whole fabric weighs but twelve ounces
and although it will keep its place, it
can be folded up small enough to put in
1 a carpet bag or band-box without itiju
’ ry. The retail price of this article is
''about $3.
■ j We have stated that 3,000 skirts are
l j made each day, on an average. This is
> equal to 75,000 a month or 900,000 a
I year. Os the materials used we will
; now give a few details. In the first
; place, there is the plain muslin. One
Rhode Island cotton factory supplies, of
1 J one particular kind of c.oth, 2,000
pieces per month—say 80,000 yards.—
Os all other kiuds, about 70,000 yards
are used. Half a million yards of tape
are also used up every month ; 225,000
yards of twenty strand jute cord ; 10,-
000 yards of hair cloth ; 2,1X10 dozen
spools of cotton; 2,800,000 eyelets,slides
claps, tubes, hooks, &e.
Although steel has been found to be
the most suitable material for hoops,yet
others have not been altogether put out
of the question, because rattan and ,
whalebone are not only still used to a ,
large extent in cheap skirts for all the
hoops, but they form a part of the ma ;
term! of nearly all of tho steel hooped J
j skirts, The manufacturers of. whom
we have been speaking will use up in
(the course of the present year, two (
thousand two hundred miles of hoops. ‘
The consumption, in feet in a month, J
of the various materials is us follows :
700,000 feet of steel riband, 200,000
feet of round rattan, 100,000 feet of j
round oil boiled whalebone—a million 1
feet—which give for the year within a 1
fraction of 2,267 1-2 miles of hoops.—

Leaning Towards Each Other.
At the Knight Templar dinner, on the occasion ;
of the lato Statue Inauguration, at Richmond,
Mr. Robert Mokriss, of Kentucky, being called j t
upon, recited the following admirable poem :
The jolts of life are many, t
As wo dash along the track ; ;
Its ways am rough and rugged,
And our bones they soiely rack. 1
We’re tossed about, t
We’re in avd out, s
We make a mighty pother ; r
Far less won Id be
Our pai s, if we
Would lean towards each other. I
Behold yon loving couple, (
Just started for a life ! £
What care they .or jolting, t
That happy man and wife ! -
The cars may jump,
Their ho *ds may bump, 1
And jostle one another ; f
They only smile,
And try the while, ,
To lean towards each other !
Woe to the luckless traveler
Who journeys all alone ;
Well said the wise Solomon, ‘
u Two better is than one.” j
For when the ground’s 1 .
Most rugged found, j ’
And great’s the pain and p- ther ; ; (
He cannot break \
The sorest ache j i
By leaning on another.
There's not one in ten thousand
Os all the cares we mourn,
But what, if twas divided,
Might easily be borne.
If we but learn,
When fortunes turn,
To share them with a Brother,
We’d prove how good’s
Our Brotherhood,
By leaning towards each other.
