NEWS FROM NEW ORLEANs.-The fol-
lowing interesting and certainly new item
of home news we clip from the London
Builder. We shall keep a sharp lookout
for the next issue of the Builder, in order,
if possible, to give our readers the sequel
of this melancholy story:
A mechanic in New Orleans constructed
a safe which he declared to be burglar proof.
To convince the incredulous of the fact, he
placed a one thousand dollar bill in his
pocket, had himself locked in the safe, and
declared that he would give the money to
the man that unfastened the door. All the
blacksmiths and burglars in the State have
been boring and beating at the safe for
week, and the man is in there yet! He has
whispered through the keyhoie that he
will make the reward ten thousand dollars
if somebody would only let him out. Fears
are entertained that the whole concern will
have to be melted down in blast furnace
before he is released, and efforts are to be
made to pass in through the keyhole fire
proof jacket, to protect the inventor while
the iron is melting. The inventor swears
that if he once gets out he will in future
always try the experiment with rival
patentee inside. He says he never thought
he should wish, as he does now, that some
one would find q weak place in his armor.

which the Prince of Wales was the centre,
while on his right was the Princess Louise,
ON his left Prince Arthur and the Lord
lieutenant. But poor Lord Lorne was
sternly excluded from the Royal group,
finally ensconced himself between a press
man and Kingstown town ,S So%mi SSH,
Prince of Wales-who, by the-bye, speaks
with a distinctly marked foreign accent-ex-

Al HRaNcELr 0tfT~ n will he IN the
recollection Of our readers, that amongst
the many testimonials Of loyalty and at
lection presented to the Sovereign Pontid
on tho assembling Of the Vatican Council,
there was one that attracted particular OBJ
servati0n, and was distinguished beyond
them all by the origiuality OF its conceP-
tiOn and the muniHcence Of its execution.
II xes the gift of generous Irishman, MT.
d. ]. Oliver, Of San Francisco, California.
and consists Of single bar Of the purest
silver, weighing 345l6s. 1t was cast in the
California authorized mint, bears Its Of
fetal stamp, and 10 the largest single block
Of silver ever manufactured. Mr.: Onver
was himself the bearer Of it to the Vatican
Palace, and accompanied by his amiable
wife (since deceased), and his interesting
family, presented it himself, at special
audience, to the Holy Father. With the
characteristic nobleness Of mind, and that
thorough unselfshness that have ever dis
tinguished the career of Plus the Ninth, his
Holiness resolved that the precious gift
should be devoted to q purpose far higher
than increasing his own little stock of per-
sonal wealth, aud should be linked up. IN
rel ssemorians, with the great event that
formed the GROWING glory of his reign.
Accordingly he gave directions that the
silver bar should be melted down, and re-
Vatican Council. One of these medals was
given to each member of tho episcopacy
who was present at the Council, and with
much, though assuredly merited, thought
fitness, care was taken that an early I'M
preston should be forwarded to the gener-
Gus Irishman who had furnished the ma
terial for such lasting memorial. The
medal weighs close on seven ounces, and
bears on one side of it q beautifully carved
bust of the illustrious PontiH, and on the
other side an equally beautifully carved
representation of the Delivery of the Keys
by our Lord to St. Peter. Above this
