Wire Gauze for Cotton Hales.
From the New York Times, Heptem
bea 14: a letter was received at the
Cotton Exchange yesterday from Ten
nesseo to tho effect that a new kind of
wrapper for baled cotton was about to
bo placed on the market. The new en
velope consists of a fine wire gauze,
which has been, it is claimed, subjected
to all l ; oda of tests, iucluding hooks
and compression, and it has proved to
be equal to jute baggmg in every re
spcct. A great advantage claimed for
it is that it is almost yr quite fireproof.
The correspondent states that be has
built fires uuder a bale of cotton en
cased in this wrapper and heaped live
coals of fire on top of it, without even
scorching the cotton. The price of tho
new material is at present about tha
same as that charg 1 for jute bagging
under ordinary competition, but it is
thought it might be made considerable
lower by a large demand. The matter
attracted a great deal of attention at the
Cotton Exchange yesterday, and much
favorable comment was hoard. The
board of managers will take under eon
sideration at its next meeting the advis
abilty of accepting cotton when encased
in this new envelope. Nothing defi
nito can bo done, however, until the
buyers of Bremen and Liverpool con
sent to accept the new wrapping.

New Method of Engraving.
Pyrogravure is a new method of eft-
graving in black, reddish brown, bister,
etc., bv the use of a redhot metallic
point. The engraving is done as easily
as is drawing with a pen or pencil. A
scraper and some gum 6ervo to suppress
or lighten tho lines upon wood, just as
upon paper. obtained first
Mr. Perier his pyro-
engraved drawings with redhot pokers
and the conical cauteries used in surgery.
These burners, which it was necessary to
keep continually heating, heated were replaced
by platinum burners by an elec¬
tric current, and then by instruments
based upon the principle of gas soldering
irons.
Art decoration on a large scalo and
industrial ornamentation have in pyro¬
gravure a new means of utilizing the
talent of tho artist and the skill of the
workman. By means of it we can just
as well draw a portrait or a fumiturej landscape as
decorate a room, piece of or
any other object, cr mark the handle of
a tool. Tho lines made by pyrogravure
have not fhe sharpness of those given on
wood by tho graver or gouge. It in¬
creases tho decorative effect of marqjie-
terie and of objects of wood or leather
inlaid with metals, ivory, mother of
pearl, etc. -Annnles Industricllcs-

A Lady Happens to a Serious Accident
Mrs. Collins, a lady who has been
stopping at Mrs. Clark’s boarding
bouse on Solomon street, happened
to an accident yesterday that may
yet terminate seriously. She aud
another lady were walking on Ibe
bridge that crosses tne railroad on
Taylor street, when in going down
the flight of steps that are on
each side of the bridge hei foot
slipped and she suddenly fell to the
bottom. The lady who was with her
quickly summoned help and she was
carried into tbs residenoe of Mrs.
Pierce close by. Physicians were
immediately brought to her aid and
succeeded in stopping the flow of
blood and bandaged her wounds. It
is to be hoped that the wounds are
not so serious as at first thought,
and that she will speedily recover
from their effects.
