A t the .'innual sotVee of the Egremont h[echanics’ Institution, in England, Sir Robert Brisco, baronet,made a speech,in wliich ho referred to some of the cheap but very useful articles manufactured at the present day. He said there were many ladies in that room who would be astonished when he told them that he had seen most beautiful silks—they must ex cuse the expression—offered a t two shill- ings per yard. If an article, then couldhe produced so like silk, although it had not one thread of silk in it, as to defy its spuriousness being detected by the gen eral buyei', surely that reflected great credit upon the iutelligeiice and skill that produced slich an article. Let them take another article, and that would be his own hat. H e did not intend (here sir Robert began to brush his head-piece with his sleeve) to be cheap John, hoi ever. That hat resembled a silk hat a was looked upon as such; yet there w not a particle of silk in its whole forma tion; It was made from a weed which grew in the marshes of India, called jute. It seemed to be a beautiful silk hat. He had worn it for two years, and it had only cost him six shillings and sixpence. He was not ashanied to tell them its price, nor did he think it a disgtdee to any man to wear any kind of a hat or other piece of dress, if it was decent, no niatter what it cost. Besides, it was a fact that it stood the damp from the sea air ^ t t e r than the best silk hat he could head. Well,r as he hadau said.u, put, upon aia iieau, v eii, us lie ii sai his hat was made from jute, that nasty IS ALV O R D which they made nail bags with, dway, N. Y. He had a pride in wearing that hat, and for this reason; it had given three times as much employment as the manufacture of a silk hat'; it hail given wages, i t had given the means of living to many of bis fellow-nreaturesi There was another article which he wore deserving o f their attention. Perhaps they would think he had dressed him for the occasion. He would b et the young.,meh present—the yoimg dandies—who liked to have a neat collar, that the one he wore was as good, if not better than any in the room. He did not believe there was a linen coL lar in the whole of Cumberland equal to' his. It was oiilypaper. He paid eightpence V±o u dozen washe ent of the materi collars, he knew from experience, re mained clean for a far longer time than the linen ones. A friend of his said to him one day :—“ 1 would like to see you but with your paper collar on a wet day.” He thought he would try the experiment^ and, consequently, upon the first wet day that came, he livent out to see how his collar would stMid the raih . After b'ding well wet he retiilned home, and allowed the wet collar to dry on his neck; He then tbuk it oflf, and was astonished to find that it was almost as clean as when he first put it on. , Ne.\t day he put on a linen collar, and went out t'o put it to the salne test as he had his paper collar. When he returned and took it off, it was a shame to be seeni Some people were apt to sa y :—^” The idea bf Wearing paper Collars!” Why, this was a Hiiserable vanity. He would weak anything that wasdeceht, if i t an swered his purpose. Jf that cheap silk of whice he had been speaking looked as beautiful in ladies’ dresses as the silk ob tained from the scarce silkworm, was the lady who wore itnot as respectably cloth ed-as the otie attired with thepfoduotioa of the worn! ?
