MANUFACTURE OF DIAMoNDs.-The Pa
ris correspondent OF the London Times says:
"The scientific world has been in state
! Of commotion during the week, IN conse~
quence of the publication Of the discovery
of long sought for secret Of the fusion
and cry stalizaliono of carbon. The Sorbonnd
has bson crowded for the last few days to
behold The result Of this discovery IN the
shape of a tolerably, diamond ofgreat
lustre. which Mr. Desprezst, the happy dis
coverer, submits to the examination Of ev-
cry chemist and Saram who chooses to visit
him. He declares that so long ago Us last
summer he had succeeded in producing the
diamond, but in such minute particles as to
be visible only through the microscope, and
fearful of raising irony and suspicion, he
had kept the secret, until, by dnt Of repeat
ed experiments and great labor he had cons
ple.ed the one he now offers 10 public view.
Four solar lens, of immense power, aided
by the tromcnduous galvanic pile OF the Scr
bonnie have been the means of producing the
result now before as. II. Deprezt holds
himself ready 10 display the experiment
whenever required. The diamond produced
is of the quality known in the cast as the
black diamond one single specimen Of which
is sold by Prince Retstoh' the late Duko OF

NIIs PAINE'S GREAT LIGHT AND HEAT
DISCOVERY.

We learn from the n. Y. Herald, that Mr..
Paine, the discoverer of cheap and new mode
of evolving light and heat from water by electri-
cal action, has been successful in applying his
invention to lighting the office of the Baltimore
Clipper, and he has now entered into u contract
10 light and heat the New y ork Astor House on
the same principle and by the same apparatus.
"Ne have no knowledge of anything respecting
the invention" says the Herald, "more. than we
have obtained from disinterested parties in Mas
sachusetts and in Washington; but we are pre-
pared to believe from our reports, that Mr. Paine
has now overcome all obstacles, and is about to
give to the world one Of the greatest blessings
ever known TO humanity. Parties in this city
have entered into bonds to give the inventor one
million OF dollars for his invention, with a view
to have it generally applied to practice; and a
commencement will be made within ten days"
If, upon thorough trial, this invention should
prove all that 1t now seems to be, it Will b3 i'm
possible to estimate the vast benefits which it
will confer upon the world Wood and coal
will be superseded as articles of fuel, Gas-works,
as at present constructed, will be out of date
And, directly and indirectly, revolution will be
etfectcdin all OF the affairs of the world. Wher-
ever there is stream, lake, or ocean, there will
be an ineXhaustible reservoir of light and heat.
ready to warm and flame at the talismanc touch
Of the electric battery.--Our great lakes will be
worth more for fuel than all OF the coal fields in
the world
We are anxious TO see the matter fully test
ed. The discovery seems to be too great and
beneticcnt for this degenerate age. But after
all, why should we be incredulous! We know
that all of the necessary elements to produce
light and heat exist in water, and chemistry is by
no means so perfect science that we may not
expect thousand discoveries yet to be made in
1t, more wonderful than any with which we are
now acquainted. The uniform tendency of sci
entltic discovery, in its investigations into the
secrets of nature, has constantly been from its
grosser to its more ethereal forms; and the pro-
founder are the depths to which the man of sci
ence sinks his plummet, the more distinctly does
he see that all oftho principles of nature are con-
tlnued in its imponderabe clements. Mind is
everywhere supplanting the old dominion of brute
force. The invention Of single head is now
performing the work that would formerly have
tasked millions Of hands Consider tho steam
engine az the propeller Of all sorts of machinery
in manufactures and locomo;ion, and compare
its achievements with the hand-Worl1 and lumber
wagons Of past generations. Consider also the
thousand applications of science for the abridg-
mcDt Of manual labor. Until Mind shall reign
supreme over Nature, we need hardly doubt oil
the truth of any discovery which may be annuuu-
ced, if it DO not contradict other well established
discoveries in sCiCnCc-Chic yrib
