1. Cotton.-—Cotton Borders and Ends.
Of the specimens dealt with in the subjoined table, No. 188, Yol. Y. is a good example of
an open-textured material, of a common quality, and Nos. 221 and 228, Yol. VI., afford
instances in which, although the thread is undyed, its arrangement is made to produce a
striped appearance.
Nos. 193, 194, 195, Vol. V., are of almost the coarsest kind of fabric made, and show
that the special ornamentation even of these is a matter which receives attention.
