What's this] What's the matter!” arcore cf them asked. Theg saw by the haodcuffs on Long's wrlsts that oue belonging te their camp was in the hands of an officer, and did not like it. They were jeal ous of the law, aud jumping to the conclusion that Long was arrested for merely shooting some one ia & little row at Maryavllle, their first thought “Ho shan’t go!" shouted one, “Releate him!” added another. “Don't let him take me,” pleaded Dave Long. The crowd began to close in. “Stand back!” thundered the de- tectlve, flourishing bls revolver. I am Darective Black, from{Sacramento, and thia is my prisorer. If any man dares to interfers I will shoot him down like a dog.” Althoogh threats of bullets were not much in those days, the fearless bearing 6f the officer, who stood firm- ly grasping tho arm of tha prisoner, and with a slogle arm opposivg a hun- dred recklees men, had its effect, and they stood, uodecided. Taking ad- vantage of the momentary trace, Black hurriedly whispered to his prisoner: “It you don't tell them not to in- terfero, and that you've_concluded it's best to go with me, I'll inform them of what yon have done, and then they will take you.” With the halter scare on him again Long tremblingly spoke to the mob: “Never miod, friends. Don’t fo- terfere. 1 guessI'd better fly. Il bo all right “What is it you've done, Longl” He turned paler than ever. “‘We must know what 1t is. Wos it a scrape in Marysville?” “Ye—yes. Never mind. I'll-Tll be back”—and his heart sunk as the thought that he never would—"‘back batore long and tell you_all about it." So the detective was allowed to do- part with his prisoner. Two of Long's mess socompanled them, aud the culprit was lodged In Maryevills that night, while the murdered woman's husband was re- leased. An effort was made by the authori- tles to keep the matter quiet for & while, but all thefacts leaked ont, and the angry populace did not wait for the law's slow veogeance, On the following Friday night, July 20, the miscrablo’ wretch was taken from the jail by & party of disgulsed men and hanged to a tree whose boad boughs overshadowed the scene of tha crime. In his last momonts, with the nocso around his peck, he confessed Jute Cultare in Louisiana. New York Sao. Tn 1873 the amount paid for jute tmported into the United States was $4,500,000; in 1880, for the year ending June 30, it was $7,000,000, and this year it will, in ail probabili- ty, reach the round sum of $10,000,- 000. Jute is an sonual plant of the order #iliaceae, and of the genus cer- chorus capsularis. Its stem ls from one-half inch to one inch In diame- tar, grows to the height of ten or twelve feet, is very straight, and branches only at the top. It sharply terrsicd, lanceolated leaves, bout six inches long aud neatly two inches wide. The flowers have five eepsls end five petals. Tee stameus are numerous, bat they have only cne pistil. The bark is fibrous, like that of nemp or flax, and Is very fino—that is, capable of minute subdivlsion— and its belog'so fine and of such great Tength cauaes it tobe sometimes woven with silk in cheap fabrics. The ssed is sown In March or April, and it may be cut in June, Julyor August. 1tis bast tocut it when it begins to blos- som, s8 tho fibor is then be:ter than when the plaatis older. After being cat the stemws are steeped o water till neparates esily from the Is isthen prepared for the manner similsr to that In which flax is prepared, only the stems are not dried and broken, ro the flax stems.

It is not good for Topes, as it can not stand the weather, ye: our hemp ropes are fro- quently sdultersted with jate. When the waterfall for the head was in fash- ion, many were the switches which wero made of jute, {nstead of flax, a8 was often sald. Guony is the name of the cosrse cloth used to bsle cotton. The yield of this yeat's cotton is eet down at 6,000,000 to 6,250,000 bales. Each bale takes about sevoa yards of gunny, hence 6,000,000 bales f cotton alone reqnire 42,000,000 yards of cloth mads from tho fiber of the jate plaut. This Is ond item, and the iargest, but t0 it wo must add the bagging for the incressing rico crop, and for wheat and coffee and pepper un- til the whole catslogue s filied. There is now no question but that wo could supply this demand our: nolver, and prosper by the production of jute. I+ is & settled fact that many of the southern states have splendid jate-growiug lards. Cslifornia, resl- ixing the benefit of its culturs, has been bogging her own products from her own eoil for several years, and it fasald that & jute manufactory will soon be started in thisclty.

The ends of the stems are used for making paper, aa are the old racks and bags. The stems may be used for garden fonces and coarse baskets, and, like the willow of Dalaware and Maryland, they make good charcoal for gunpowdar.
