Theater is omseedi'ngly fine; from one pound of flax there can be manufactured lace to the value of £700 516 cling, Valen- ciennes became known in the seven-- tecnth century. The fines; qualities are from Ypres. It requires great ipatvience to make Valencionnes. The work is very slow. A good lace- ‘ maker, working twelve. hours a-day, can only make one-third of an inch 5} week. â€"~A saddninded “mountain editor” says : “ The one dollar pieces are to be Wiihdrmvn from circulation. They are 2» great nuisance. “We have searched for 01.10 of them in vain many times in‘ the dupths of small ptwket books. And We have lost, probably, dozens of them every day for years." Alencon the queen of lace, is the only lace in France that iskmade on a pillow. ' This lace has great strength, and is not injured by washing. The French Re'volution was the destroyer of lace manufacturers, but under Na- poleon I. Aleneon was again received with favor. The Emperor purchased a dress of this costly lace for seventy thousand francs, and presented it to the Emprese. \VhCllx'WO {ire al'one, '(e have our thoughts to watch; in our families our tempers; and in society, um- tongues} During the fifteenth century the nuns in ltaly became famous for the exquisitelymanipulated point or pil- low lace. The origin of this famous lace is quite romantic. The story is, that a sailor brought to his ladylove a splendid bunch of “mermaid’s lace,” which is generally called “cox-alline.” The girl was a lace-maker, and ex- ceedingly artistic in her taste. She greatly admired the delicate beauty of the eornlline, and studied to imi- tate in lace the beautif’fi lines of the sea-weed. This kind oflaee is made entirely upon a pillow or cushion, which the workwoman holds on her- lap. Over the pillow is placed a piece of parchment: upon this the parchment is priekcd. The threads are carefully wound upon several bobbins. The process reqt ires nim- ble‘and skilful fingers, and a great deal of patience. The groundworks are various; and-contain the flower. There are several laces that are not worked upon a ground. Valenciennes and Mechlin laces have the designs anduground‘s made together, finished with either the pearl or picot edge. At One perioii guipufes were the mode. During 'the reign of Henry VIIL, this luee was so extensively worn, that the costumes 'of pages were covered with this costly garniâ€" ture; and at the coronation ofllenry 11., the church was richly trimmed with guipure lace.
