But everything must have an end, and our trav- elers had arrived at their last stage ; on which the fat man went to Vernet and said: “ Sir, I owe you a thousand thanks for paying for my ainner almost all the way from Marseilles here, and I wish to show you my gratitude.

The history of Titus Salt is in iteelf a ro- mance. He is a ‘‘self-made” man. Bora in poverty, and educated in abject toil, he is now in the prime of life one of the richest men in England, and perhaps the private ewployer of iabor in the world. His fortune was made by one of those lucky discoverio: that occur once or twice in an age. The story is worth telling. A few years since a woollen manufacturer, not troubled with too much business, went to Liverpool to buy the raw article required in tis trade. While here he was shown over a pile of new warehouses, then thought one of the wonders of the port, his keen Yorkshire eye alighted = a packet of something that looked like and yet was not really wool. In answer to his inquiries, he was told that it was hair shorn from a kind of wild gost, which inhabited gre America, my that it was hardly worth importing, as little or no use could £ found for it. He examined ite texture, thought Ae could do something with the almost unknown and neglected produce, and begged tohaveasample. He took the hair home. made his experiments, kept his | secret, and finding bis expectations as to the fabric which it would produce realized, bought up the raw material atalow figure and manufactured“wiles of the cloth which is now in universal use for coats, trousers, dress es, umbrellas, and an infinite variety ot arti el es under the name of “ Alpaca,’’ and whieh a favorite material with all moped in cord country. The shaggy goat’s wool bas turne: out sy ataguiar golden Teece to Titus Salt, for out of the money he bas made by its man- ufacture, be has built the largest mill in England, which daily — 3,000 hands, and has more than double that number of ics depending upon its existence for their own. * This palatial establishment, which com- prises a large town within its limits, is named Saltaire, after its founder, and supplies the ution with Alpaca in every variety and form Saturday was the anniversary of Titus Salt’s birth, and the third anniversary of the inau- guration of his monster works. His working people showed their respect for him by ma- king the occasion famous as ano:ber anniver- eary—that of presenting to him marble bust of himself, To the number of 3,000 the bands marched in procession to Mr. Salt’s house, which bears the cosy name of ‘Crow's Nest,’ epent the morning pleasantly in his grounds, had a grand dinner beneath a marquee, and then they marched to Bradford, where in the St. George’s Hall, (the prinetpal building in the town) the presentment took place amidst a great display of complimentary spoechifying.
