VICTORIA's CROWN.-The crown worn by
the Queen OF England, at the opening Of Par
lament, is composed Of hoops of silver: which
are completely covered and concealed by pre-
cious stones, having a Maltese cross Of dia-
monds on the top Of it. In the centre of this
cross is Il magnificent sapphire. In front of
the crown, above the rim, is another Maltese
cross, in the middle of which is the large I'M
polished ruby which once graced the corOnet
OF the chivalrous Black Prince, and under
meath this, in the circular rim, is another i'm
mense sapphire. The arches enclose cap OF
deep purple, or rather blue velvet; and the
rim Of the crown, at its base, is clustere4with
brilliants, aud ornamented with fennAate-is,
and Maltese crosses, equally rich. There are
many other precious gems-emeralds and ru-
bies, sapphires, and small clusters of drop
pearls Of great price. The crown is altogether
valued at over a half million of dollars. In
deed, We're it possible to re.cOllect and again
bring together such precious stones. this esti-
mate would fall much below their intrinsic
value. The old crown of England, made for
George I'LL, weighed upwards of seven pounds
but, notwiths landing this gorgeous display
of jewelry, independent of the gold cap, the
present crown only weighs nineteen ounces
and ten pennyweights. 1t measures seven
inches in height from the gold circle to the
upper cross and its diameter 1T the rim il five
inches.

Homicide.

An affray took place on Tuesday evening last, in
the Southwestern part Of the City, between Green
j. Maynard and Burwell Mangum, which resulted
in the death Of the latter at about 8 o'clock We'd
nesday morning It seems that there had been
previous difficulty between the parties. Mangum
went to the house of Maynard, and, calling him by
name, asked him to come out of the garden, where
upon Maynard came out with a hoe with which he
had been working in his hand, and struck the de-
ceased very severe blow with his fist, knocking
him down. After he was down Maynard dealt upon
him many severe blows with the hoe which he held
in his hand. The object Of Maynard seems to have
been to mutilate and murder the deceased on the
spot, and would have succeeded but for the inter-
ference of bystanders.
On the examination by the jury Of inquest We'd
nesday morning of the body it found to be sad
" mutilated and bruised.
Dr. Dupree testified that the wound on the head
and those. on the left breast would have caused
death but there were marks of violence in many
other parts. .,.-
The verdict of the jury was that Burwel Man
gum came to his death by blows inflicted on his
head and left breast with o hoe by Green J. May
nard The deceased leaves a widow and eleven
children.
Maynard was sent to Jail by Mayor Harrison
Tuesday night to await further process.
