NEW SPECIES OF BRILLIANTS.—At a. ball,
in Calcutta, a lady, remarkable for the splendour of her
dress and ornaments, attracted the eyes of all the company,
On entering the ball-room. Rows of brilliants, which. threw
around her a light like that of the fabulous carbuncles of
the Arabian Nights, glittered down her dress; 'and eclipsed
all the jewels in the room.' When the other ladies, desi-
rous of examining her sumptuous ornaments, drew near,
and began to pry into the mystery, it was discovered that
the ingenious fair one had imprisoned some hundreds of
fire-flies in little bags of muslin, the yentas textiles of
Piczaontus ; and that proud to adorn so much beauty, they
fluttered as she moyed, and gave her the appearance of
being decked out with jcwels of living -fire.—London
IVely Review.
One of the young elephants which have been
exhibiting for some time at the Menagerie in Exeter
'Change has beep sold to the. King of Seats for 700/. It
was put on board a ship bound for Gibraltar early on
Thursday morning ; the late proprietor Mr. Caoss, having,
'it seems, previously taken the precaution of securing pay-
ment "en argent comptant." It is a Sagacious animal,
and has been taught a 'number of tricks, which will pro-
bably render it a great favourite with the enlightened FEU.-
DINAND, who divides his time prettily between his mena-
gerie and his equally elegant camarilla. The collection of
animals now the Royal Menagerie of Spain is. very ex-
tensive. ''.pout eight mouths ago a gnat addition was
'made to it by presents from the Ring of FRANCE ; and a
chant in London has lately made considerable purchases
for FERDINAND, of Mr. Caoss, and other collectors.
OUTRAGE AND ATTEMPT AT MURDER.—
It does not often devolve on us to record outrages in the

make up for their unfrequency by their enormity. We are

up the road towards cove, when he was overtaken by three
men, with whom he entered into conversation, and they
proposed to Convey him by a short route through the fields.
The poor victim to their atrocious villainy unsuspecting
went forward with them, and as he was crossing a ditch
one of the ruffians struck him with a pistol and knocked
him down. This was the signal for the three to attack hint
