The psfunct Stars and Stripes.

The Sacramento Record Of yesterday
CONTAINS the following sensible edito.
rial remarks:
The Auburn Stars and Stripes, a
journal which was formerly Republi-
can In principles. but which Joined the
~so-called Liberal party during the re-
cent campaign, has suspended publica.
ton. The late editor, w. A. Selkirk.
writes the obituary Of his paper, and
intimstes that the time has not come
when independence can he made to
pay. 1t is natural that a beaten man
should be inclined to growl, but we
cannot permit Mr.. Selkirk to lay the
fiattering JUNCTION to his soul that he
failed because lie was independent.
The true cause Of his defeat may be
found In the fact that he showed him
self incapable Of comprehending the
i~nsincerity Of the Liberal fight, and
that he left the Republican party
through chagrin and vexation, and not
from principle. Such causes might
and should cause the defeat of any
man, and we have no sympathy to
waste upon the justly ostracized Stars
and Stripes, our only regret being that
a similar tate has not attended every
journal that pursued the same course.

The Diamond.

A certain and peculiar Characteristic
OF the diamond lies in the form Of Its
crystals. The ruby and topaz will
scratch quartz, but no mineral which
will scratch quartz has the curved
edges Of the diamond. In small crys-
tails this peculiarly a be seen only
by means of q magnifying glass; but
1t is invariably present. Interrupted,
convex or rounded angles are sure
indications Of genuineness. Quartz
crystal Is surrounded by six faces the
diamond by four. The diamond
breaks with difficulty, and hence a test
sometimes used Is to place the speci-
nen between two hard bodies, as a
couple of coins, and force them to-
gether with tho hands. Such q pres
sure will crush q particle Of quartz, but
the diamond Will only indent the
metal. The value Of the diamond Is
estimated by the carat which Is equal
to about four grains. and the value In
creasss rapidly with its weight. II a
small rough diamond weighs four
grains, its valne Ia about $40 II eight
grains, $40; II sixteen grains, $40.
8 cut diamond of one carat Is worth
from $50 to 800. The imperfections
of the diamond, and In fact Of all cut
gems, are made visible by putting
them into oil Of cassis, when the slight.
est flaw will DO seen. A diamond
weighing ten carats Is "princelY,"
but not one in ten thousand weighs so
much. Ifs rough diamond resemble a
drop OF clear spring water, In the mid
die Of which you perceive a strong light,
or If It has a rough coat, so that you
can hardly see through it but white.
as if made rough by art, yet clear OF
flaws or veins; or II the coat be
smooth and bright, with a tincture Of
green in lit Is a good stone. m
has a milky cast, or a yellowish green
coat. beware of 1t. Rough diamonds
with a greenish crust are the most lin
pid when cut.
