were nearly level, both west away at a terrine peon,
occasionally they would slightly head each other, bet the
advantage thus gained was but momentary, and in this
manner they continued to progrees, and it was the

when within a few yards of the bridge, yang Gulf put on
a tremendous spurt and shot ahead, and despite the
@trepans exertions of Coulter, came in a winner by a yard
and a half.

The erew were obliged to take to the rigging to prevent

There are now large numbers of West India
beetles imported into France for the use of the Parisian
beetle jewellers. East India beetles are also in requital. In
Edinburgh and Birmingham there is • great quantity of
beetle jewellery manufactured. The beetles selected are
those with compact and hard bodies. The South Ameriesia
beetles used are a dead green colour, and they have the sp.
sarance of beige ornamented is the arabesque style.
When placed in breast pins gold lankness and diamond eyes
are added. Sir Emerson Tamest has presented

some specimen, of the ooleoptera of Ceylon, mielhold

are like burnished emeralds, and the thorax like shining

with gold owls of the ancient fossil trilobite. The regu-
larly articulated frame of these creatures, and the curious
attitudes in which they perished, adapt them ter the gold-
