Harris, of the State Mu seum, has received letters from a cap italist, making inqui ies us to the de posits and quality of kaolin which is extensive'y found in this State. Kao lin is disintegrated feldspar, and is generally known a3 china clay, being the material from which china-ware is manufactured. It appears to be the purpose of the party from whom the letters were received to establish a china-ware factory in this State pro vided deposits of kaolin sufficient to supply a large demand can be found. There is not now a china-ware factory in the United States and the industry would be one of enormous tirofit in any part of this country. Th'N quality .-or k.oojj:i js -ioun-1 ie the western counties and it is said it 1 exists in 1 ,rge quantities. There is an old historic statement that the first thing ever exported from the colonies was kaolin taken from the vicinity of Macon county. It was packed in boxes and Indians carried it on their backs from the mountains to the coast from where it was shipped to the east, and was used in making the finest porce'ain and chinaware. In answer to the letters samples of seven different kinds of kaolin were for warded to the writer and all known facts in con-ieetion with tha mineral in this State furnished. The best quality found iu America is probably found in North Carolina." In Macon Jackson, and other west ern counties, and we learn also near Ashevillc, arc inexhaustible deposits of the finest kaolin in the world. Some of the Jackson kaolin has been s -ut to Xew Jersey works, and there t ronounced superb. Mrs. Jarvis, wife of Minister Jarvis, has a tea-set made of North Carolina kaojin which could not be told from the finest Sevres chiua. We do not remember from whence the clay was obtained, but it certainly worked up elegantly. We have seen small sample-plates made of the Jackson clay, which were very fine and elegant. Ve believe a frctory for the making of porcelain and china-ware established in this sec tion would not only do well, but would certainly secure all the kaolin wanted. A Reminder.

One large elephant escaped and this morning was found drowned in the Sound near the light house where it had gone in its fright. Aside from this the only animal that escaped bej'ond the grounds was a largo lion which wandered into Christopher Rich-. ard'iJ barnyard, where it attacked a cow and calf, making an early breakfast of the latter.

There were oight hundred life belta on board anil most of the passengers were suplied with tnarxi but they proved useless in a majority of cases as people wero ingulfed with the ship.

Seaford yeaterday morning. No more ladies have been recovered here. It is the uni versal feeling that the fault of the collision rests with the steamer Rosa Mary. Chief Mate Wells ot that versel states she left Hartlepool on Friday in command of Capt. Webster iuid with a crew of sixteen men. On the night of the collibion there was a shifting log ; sometimes it was dense while at . intervals it was clear. At about 8:30 o'clock, j lie tays, the collision occured.
