A Lucky Lumberman

| few years since, gentleman engaged in
the lumber business in Maine, having an ap-
preciative eye for a fine diamond, and being
convinced that real gem would, if properly
bought, be a safe investment, accordingly
commissioned Mr.. Charles W. Kennard, the
well-known jeweller on fremont street, to
purchase for him stone, about thousand
dollars in value, which was mounted as a
spiral stud As months rolled on the
owner was offer, d connoisseurs constant ad-
vhnces on his purchase, which temptation
only made him value his gem the more, and
he said to hine elf, ''If it is worth that to them
it is to me, and will keep 1t till forced by
necessity to sell
In April or last year, while working on his
boom of logs on one of the streams of the
Kennebec, having on a shirt, the stud-hole
worn large by service, he saw his sparkling
brilliant fall from his bosom. strike the log,
and glide quietly into the swift current be.
low. Determination to regain it over
powered the regret of his mind. He kept
his loss where his stud should have benin
his bosom. Sounding the depth of the water,
| he found it to be about seven feet; he then
decided to wait till the summer drought
should bring the stream to its lowest ebb, and
taking accurate measurement of the place, by
the bearings of the rocks and trees on shore,
allowing eighteen inches for the change OF
direction by the current, he left his treasure
to compete with the dace and sinner, in fas-
cinating the river mermaid, and returned to
his Massachusetts home.
The September following, six months after
the loss, the river being at its lowest point
for the season, the uudaunted lumberman
started for his diamond. The river full of
logs, covering the place, had been sawed and
shipped, and now only few inches of water
trickled over the spot where the Sud fell.
He took with him a large tin colander, the
wholes of which were of size to hold the
prize, if found. He had determined to work
fortnight, before giving up the gem as lost,
and to have all the river-bottom to 60 through
his handy kitchen strainer. He made his
first dip of gravel and water, as nearly as he
could calculate, eighteen inches down the
current from where it struck the surface Of
the stream, seven feet above. And lucky
dip it was for at the bottom of the pan lay
the lost gem, bright and sparkling as when
it came from the jeweller.-Boston Tran
script.

The GREAT LIGHT.-We were in at
tendance at the Terpsichorean ball two
or three nights since, and made notes at
the time of few of the leading features
of the affair, but overlooked one of the
most important. We take occasion now
to mention it. We have reference to the
brilliant calcium light used on the occa-
sion, and about which we heard many
complimentary remarks. Of all the ar
tifcial lights we have seen, there are none
which shine so brilliantly as the calcium.
1t dispels all darkness for squares around
where it can have full range. Our friend
W. o. Diboll, the proprietor, may justly
feel proud of having made this wonder
full discovery, which is destined, sooner
or later, to supersede all artificial lights
for picnics and other night assemblages.
The calcium may be seen any night by
casting the eye in the direction of the
corner of Main and Washington streets.

ties opened fraction better. with medium
demand.
The market closed firmer yesterday. owing
to frmer feeling reported in the late New
York dispatches. which caused some factors
to advance their prices fully 10 on desirable
grades. Sales were $500 bales, three buyers
| taking nearly half the amount sold. To-day
the views Of sellers were further strengthened
by the early dispatches reporting the New
York market firm. Buyers were. as a gene
raj rule, operating on somewhat larger
scale than was the case, yesterday morning,
their transactions showing good demand for
all grades above good ordinary. Subsequent
adviees from the East noted an advance Of No
in New York on all grades. except good mid
ding. which advanced nc. The reception Of
this intelligence stihened the views Of sellers.
aud resulted in an advance Of fully re
on all grades above good ordinary
and nc on lower styles. Sellers, who in
the early part Of the day had disposed
of good ordinary at 1214 to 127sc now asked he,
