Sale of Eugenie's Jewels.

The sale of the Empress Eugenie's
Jewels in London netted 100000. The
first article which attracted attention
was a marquise ring, with pink dia-
mond, surrounded by briliants, for.
merly the property of the Empress
Josephine. This was followed by a
pendant of emeralds, pearls, and bril-
liants, which was knocked down for six
hundred and five guineas. A fine
pendant. with large square emerald
IN the center, brought six hundred and
twenty-feur guineas. Two fine emer-
aids and three large brilliants mounle@
as bracelet, were sold for eight hur-
dred and ten guineas, and cross formed
of eleven large brilliants also brought
eight hundred and fifty.fve guineas.
A watch was sold for 81 $50; brooch
formed as an anchor, and companion
brooch, f2, $50; tiara formed of band
of brilliants, seven hundred and eighty
guineas, and brooch with a fine emer
aid and one with IA square emerald, five

The Geneva Tribunal.

Babel has been reproduced at Geneva.
There is absol ltely no language that is
by all the members Of the
tribunal of arbitration. The English
comes the nearest to being the common
tongue, as all the members are more or
less familiar with it, but some of them
so slightly that they cannot understand
it when it is spoken. French is under
stood by all the five arbitrator and by
Mr.. Caleb Cushing, but Sir Rounded
Palmer is guiltless of any knowledge OF
it, and Mr.. Evarts is considerably less
than thorough French scholar. The
confusion of tongues will prevent oral
arguments on the various questions that
will come up for consideration, and
necessitate the tedious process of having
all the argument reduced to writing
and then translated into French by the
interpreter.

Quicksilver.
Tourists who visit Santa Cruz watch

Tourists who visit Santa Cruz watch
with interest the process OF collecting
quicksilver, OF which there are rich
deposits. The process of reducing the
ore, or rousing the latent mercury from
its sleep OF a million or SO of years, is
very simple. 1t is burned out of house
and home, or its dull old body perishes
by cremation, that ii may appear in a
glorifed form, to shine and serve in u
thousand beautiful ways. The ore is
put into furnaces, each holding fifteen
thousand pounds, and having in one
end the fire, which is kept up for abou.
three days. The vapors from the heat
ed ores pass from the furnaces through
small apertures, like pigeon holes, into
condensing chambers, on the cool walls
of which the globules of mercury form
and glide at once TO the floor, where
they collect in little cutters and flow
out into troughs which convey them
into an iron caldron, from which they
are transferred to the wrought iron
TASKS in which they are sent to mar
ket. Each flask contains seventy.six
and a half pounds, and is worth forty
dollars. Young and curious tourists
nave been KNOWN 10 dttth1pt W carry
away thimbleful in their pockeG,
and have confessed to having at once
felt a singular tickling, tricklIng sensa-
ton, usually passing like streak OF
cold lightning down the right leg and
into the boot. As is well known, one
of the most curious properties OF quicn-
silver is its capability Of dissolvlng or
forming amalgams with other metals.
A sheet of goidfoil dropped into quick
silver disappears almost as quickly as a
snow flake when it falls into water. 1t
has the power OF separating or readily
dissolving those refractory metals
which are not acted on by our most
powerful acids. The gold and silver
miners pour into it their machines
holding the gold-bearing quartz, and
although no human eye can detect a
trace of the precious substances, so fine
are the particles, yet the liquid metal
will hunt it out and incorporate it with
the mass. BY subsequent distillation it
yields it into the hands Of the miners
IN state of virgin purity.

Suing for Dignity.

ed on his trunk with the prefix "Hon.,"
that none Of his hosts while en- route
to the capital might entertain Scion
unawares; but it has remained for an
aboriginal citizen of India to vindicate
his title to the title by law suit. Such
a case was actually decided by the
judicial committee of the Privy Council
of England, quite recently. The Zemin-
dar of Vizianagram sued the Zemindar
of Bobbili for insulting him, the insult
being that he had failed to address him
as honorable" to which dignity he
was entitled by reason of being me q
Der of the Legislative Council at Madras.
The court of Madras decided against the
plaintiff, who thereupon appealed, and
| the Privy Council reversed the decision
of the court below and affirmed the
right of the aggrieved dignitary to re-
cover damages for the slight.

Some of the effects of the judgment
Of the Privy Council in the Bennett case
already begin to appear. AS the judg-
ment was to the effect that while it was
not true that the cOnsecrated bread and
wine contained the body and blood of
Christ, it was lawful to teach that they
do contain that body and blood, the eff
fects of the decision are various. One
low.church clergyman, who has been in
what he calls schismsn for five years,
now writes to the Archbishop of Canter-
bury, saying that he now embraces the
Catholic doctrines" and begs "your
Grace's absolution for my SINS" An
other low-church clergyman takes just
the opposite course, and writes to say
that he gives up his living and re-
nounces his holy orders, because he can
not remain in a church which allows
"idolatry" to be taught. And high
churchman, instead of being contented
with the decisions, announces that since
it is lawful to teach the Roman doctrine
he may as we'll 90 the whole, and that
he will accordingly 60 over to Rome,
and hopes to take all his congregation

This substance has been of great re-
pute in the world from the earliest time,
and was esteemed as medicine before
the Christian era. 1t is very useful
article, and of all mineral substances
none are more interesting. For long
period little or nothing was known Of
It's origin. 1t seemed something with
out cause, and many were the conjec.
lures egarding it. One ancient wri,er
imagined amber had a spirit, and an
other insisted that it was a good charm
against sorcerers. At the present day
it is understood to be fossilized gum.
The trees from which it flowed, as u
kind of balsam or resin, belonged to
past epochs, and now form strata Of
bitumlnous wood under beds of sand
and clay. The wood is more or less sat
urated with the amber, which hangs
from the trunks in the form of stalac.
tites, and is also found in rounded
pieces, mixed with coarse sand, under
the layer Of trees. In Prussia is such a
bed of amber, the stratum being from
forty to fifty feet thick, and sometimes
followed to the depth OF one hundred
feet below the surface. On the Prussian

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.



No opinion could be more incorrect
than the too generally received one that
a horse draws by virtue of, or in pro-
portion to, his own weight and size. If
this were the case, the largest and
heaviest animal could always draw the
most and his weight on the scale would
be the best test of his capabilities. But
iacts in abundance prove it otherwise.
Draught does not depend altogether
upon weight and size. 1t is in great
measure the result of vital power.
Although weight can render some as
sistance, The po,oer of draught is chiefly
oloing 10 The muscular action aud nervous
energy, which, again, are intimately con.
nected with and greatly dependent on,
the temperament of the animal. The
jennet, mule, ass and blood horse have
much more energetic temperaments
than the carter, and consequently pos
sesses more muscular power than the
latter, in proportion to their weight
and size. Their leverage, however, is
not nearly so well suited for draught,
and in that respect, when compared
with the ordinary cart.horse, they Ia
Dor under a decided disadvantage.
