NEW MATERIAL FOR MAKING PAPER
The Maialene Journal is informed that it in intended to carry out in this country, in an ex. Tensive way, the French invention of waking paper from the sheath of the bop-stalk, when tho outer skin has, beon removed. The sub. stance tande from this matorind is cf great aup. pleness and delicacy; and by its employment in ibis uofecture a new and considerable source of profit will be opazed for the hop. rower. The importance of this discovery to Kentish farmers cannot well be czoggerated, for if the season should not prove favoumble, and fail to produce ret-rate hops, the paper- making material will corepensate for tha de fisleney to this respect. No doubt the growth of hops will be introduced in future io many districte where they are not known at present, as the large hint of material-whrob they will supply for puper making, will alone insura a good return for their cultivation. The price of the article is very high at present,
