There has been much talk in Paris for a
few days of an adventure of Russian who
is very rich, and has a great passion for dia-
monds. At a house to which ne was intro
duced, he saw, one evening, seated at a card
table, young man very elegantly dressed,
and having on his finger superb diamond
ring which, rs he handled the cards, refec-

The diamond naturally attracted the atten-
ton of the Russian, who procee led to ex-
anime it. He looked at it, tried it OF, and be-
came so enamored with it that he offered to
purchase. The young man declined, on the
ground Of family associations, which made
him unwilling to part with it A large sum
was offered, but again declined. The Rus.
sian still persisted. At length the young
man told him him that if there We're no other
reason, he could not think of selling it, as it
was not a genuine diamond Astonishment
succeeded admiration in the mind of the
Russian, an he asked the loan of it for a
en. and he took the ring to his jeweller, who
pronounced it a diamond OF the first water.

OF the great American Metropolis:
The labor Of the Census Marshals in this
city, although not yet complete, indicates
pretty clearly that the population Of the me-
tropolis at the present time is nine hundred
and fifty thousand an increase of four hun.
dred and thirty-fou thousand four hundred
and tifty-three over the population as shown
by the census of 1850. This return refers
to the city proper only, comprised within the
limits of Manhattan Island. If we take the
Metropolitan Police district, which is com
posed of the counties of New York. Kings
(Brooklyn). Richmond and Westchester, al
of which may be said to comprise New York,
the population will turn out to be close upon
million and a half. Thus we shall count
as the third city on the globe in population
exclusive of Canton, Jeddo, and il may posi-
bly, be one or two other Asiat,c cities Lon
don, Paris and New York take the lead in

ty great many times since, and, although
generally elected, invariably ran behind the
Democratic ticket. a aa a-s
As to his residence at Fl Madison, can
say nothing; but he was at one time agent
and officer of the Ft Madison and Bloomfield

that from the pick:ngs and emoluments Of
that defnnct Company he managed to save
enough ready cash COLLECTED from his conf

Of Course the interest of the people at the
