Names anMNnmc-Givers.

A Philadelphia contemporary has
an interesting article on this subject,
which is called forth by the recent
baptism of the Prince of Wales second
son:
Instead OF having the regulated
number Of sponsors, the little Prince
had seven, viz: The Queen of Den
mark, the King of Hanover, the
Princess Louise of Hesse, the Duchess
of Cambridge. the Duke of SAKE CO.
burg and Gotha, the Duke of Cam,
bridge and the Prince of LeiniAgen,
Of these seven, only the two last we're
present. The others were represent
ed by proxy-Queen Victoria standing
up for the Queen Of Denmark, the
infants other grandmother It is
not stated, in the elaborate descrip-
ton of this ceremonial, whether there
was anything particular rs to the
water used in the baptism When the
Prince of Wales was christened, the
King Of Prussia was his godfather,
and the water used was brought from.
the river Jordan for that specific purss
pose, and was not, as might have
been expected from the Kings pre-
diction, a liquid supplied by the
Widow Cliquot. The newly-made
Christian, according to the English
custom, was let lightly off with only
four names-George-Frederick-Er-
nest-A1bert. In Austria, the usual
average of royal names is four; in
Prussia, it is three; in Russia, it iss
two; in Belgium, there are eighteen
names among three royal children.
In Brazil, Portugal and Spain, each
royal Christians given names are
80 numerous that it must be quite
an effort of memory to remember
them. The Emperor Pedro, of Brazil, >.
has fifteen names, his eldest daugh-
ter eight, and her sister the Same
number. In Spain, five royal chill
dren have forty-four names among
them. Napoleon III and his wife
have three names each, and the
Prince Imperial has five; but others
of the Bonaparte family have many
more. The Orleans children ave-
ragged 1A.o each, and the Bourbons
four. The Queen of Hanover hus
twelve; Victor Emanuel seven; Ills
eldest son eight; and his sister-in-law
twelve. The deposed Duchess of Mo-
dena also sports a round dozen. The
Prince Of Orange, about to marry
Queen Victories daughter, has six
names. One of the SAKE Weimar
Princes has ten, but the royal house
of Portugal and Saxony. carry this
absurdity of bearing many names to
the extreme. King Louis, of Portii-
gGi, has nineteen names, while two
sisters and brothe, have forty-two
among them, and three more OF that
family rejoice IN twenty-one names
apiece. The King of Saxony has six
teen-but the average Of his house is
one lower. Some of the inferior
princely houses of Europe are very
strong in the name line

with crowd of names, is the general
practice in countries wholly or par

Musical Gossip.

This was what Beethoven said when he
first read the score of Weber's "Der Frei-
schultz :" "What an idea! l should never
have believed it of the little man, who is
generally so mild! Weber must now write
operas; regular operas; one after another,
and without bestowing too much troubleon
them! Caspar, the monster, stands out
like house! Whenever the Devil puts
his claws in the business, you feel them,
and no mistake !" Some time afterwards
Weber visited Beethoven, and the appear
ance of the latter is thus described:
ut was thus that the Lear of the Ossianic
bards must have looked. The hair was
thick, grey and standing up; in some
places, however, it was quite white the
forehead and skull were wonderfully broad,
arched and lofty, like temple; the nose
was square, like that of lion; the mouth
was nobly formed and soft I; the chin was
broad, with those wonderful folds, depict
ed in all the portraits OF him, and formed
of two maXillary bones, which seemed to
have been made on purpose to crack the
hardest nuts. Over his broad, pock-marked
face was spread dark red tinge; beneath
his bushy eyebrows, sternly contracted,
small, sparkling eyes CLEANED mildly on us
as we entered; the Cyclopean square, built
form, only little taller, however, than
Weber's, was clad in a shabby dressing
gown, torn at the elbows.

Professor Richardson reports: "Your property is
the very centre of the West Virginia oil regions. 1t
has numerous oil and gas springs along the banks Of
its streams, one Of which vies with the famous
Burning Spring ITSELF"
Professor Shepherd, Of New Haven, Conn, re-
ports: "IconSider 10 eminenAy oil producing land.

The SHAFTS. .JEwELs.-The gem of the
whole collection was the far-famed Deriah
Moor, or Sea ofLight, taken by Nadir Shah
from Mohammed, the Mogul Emperor of In
dia. This superb diamond was set in plain
gold as the buckle of q sword belt. In form
it is oblong, about two inches fnlength, one
and a half in breadth, and in thickness not
three quarters of an inch. tits perfectly
plain, not being cut in angles, as is usual
with diamons. The front Is quite smooth,
and It seemed exactly like a bit of very thick
plate glass. This celebrated diamond Ia con-
Eidered equal in fineness and water to- the
renowned Koh-i-Noor, or Mountain Of
Light, now in the possession Of the Queen,
which, taken from India at the same time,
after various adventures, found its way to
the treasury of Renject Singh, the Sikh
chief, and thence into English hands. A
great number OF uncut emeralds and some
yery large torquoises were shown to us, and 7
also quantity of embroidery Ornamental
with pearls, some of which were very large.
Most of the emeralds were full Of flaws, but
they were of enormous size, some crystals
being nearly three inches In length, and Of Z
corresponding breadth A very handsome
kaleoun ofstate of green enamel, ornament-
ed with emeralds, was no less remarkable
for the simplicity and elegance of its shape
than for the rich materials Of which 1t was
composed. All these treasures were hand
ed to us without hesitation, and passed from
hand to hand round the circle. We were &
surprised indeed at the little care seemingly 4
taken of jewels representing such enormous
wealth, the losso one ofwhich would infal-
libby have entailed that Of the guardians

Several OF these FIax-Cleaning Ma.
chimes have recently been put in operation in Flax
running in this city, which, driven by twenty horse
motive power and attended by five men, produces at
one operation, from good dew-rotted Flax Straw, a
superior quality Of clean long and open Flax Tow at
the average rate Of one and one-half tons of Tow
per day.
For this Tow tn ere is n large demand
at the East for spinni ing purp ses-the present re-
quirement being for from fifty to seventy-fve ton
daily, and the demand rapidly increasing.
For the purpose of developing the
business established by our machinery. and the de-
mand for its product wepropose TO- cooperate with
local capitalists at desirable points for growing Flax
in the Northwest on the business basis Of an equal
division Of net profits.
The plan of the proposed cO-opera-
ton, in general terms, is as follows. yiz We fur
nsh for use and set up one tt our Flax-Cleaning
Machines in the Flax Mill provided by the cooper
struct in running the Mill and keeping the machine-
ry in order, giving also the benefit of long expe
rience in the Flax business, and Offering special ad-
vautsges in marketing the product of the mill. We
also propose to furnish for the of each Flax MILL
s. A. Clemens Flax-See Threshing Machines,
both for removing seed and seed ends from fax
seed from tangled straw. each Machine removing and
crushing the seed bolls, ready for winnowing the
seed.
The local, cooperating party will
provide: First aFlax Mill, building and twenty
horse motive power with shafting &c., for convey
ing the power to the Flax Cleaning machine. Sec
ond two Flax Barns, each of capacity To store two
hundred aud fifty tons of Flax Straw. Infrd, am
pie grounds in the vicinity of the Flax Mill for Flax
Barns and for stacking Flax Straw. Fourth, hay
scale, platform scale, power baliDg press, and i'm
plements and fixtures for the Flax MILL Fyth, about
fifteen hundred tons, or the product of about two
thousand acres, of good dew-rotted Flax Straw an
nually. Sicth, labor and teams for opera ing the
Flax Mill.
Incorporating party can make, rs
bis share, net, annual profits Of from two to three
hundred per cent. on his permanent inve tmept Of
about ten thousand dollars required for Flax Mill.
Parties proposing to start Flax Mills,
should make immediate arrangeu ents for putting
in. early this Spring. the necessary crop, BY aiding
the farmers in the vicinity of the proposed Flax
Mill to get seed, and by contracting, with them for
the required two thousand acres Of Flax, sown at
the rate of one and one-half bushels to an acre.
We have made arrangements with
Linseed Oil Manufacturers by which cooperating
parties can get Flax seed loaned BY them.
We are prepared 10 give further and
full Information relative to the Flax business. and
will send our circulars to requesting them; and
will also exhibit one Of our Machines running In the
city and refer to the parties using them elsewhere.
