A Dia nlOpd SHOW.

Mrs. Aston, the wife of the hundred
millionaire of New York, appeared at
a party which she gave at her Fifth
avenue residence one evening last
week, in style that would justify any
reporter in saying that she 'literally
blazed all over with diamonds" On
each of her shoulders she had four
stars, the size of silver half dollars.
made of diamonds. Her hair was set
very thick]y with diamonds, and her
head seemed afame with them. There
was diamond bandau upon her brow.
She hid diamond earrings, and
diamond necklace of magnificent pro-
portions, Upon the two sides of her
chest were two circles of diamonds
about the size of the palm of the hand.
From them deepened lines and curves
of diamonds reached to her waist,
round which she wore a diamond cir
die. On the skirts of her dress in
front were two large peacocks, wrought
of lines of diamonds.
There were rosettes of diamonds on
her slippers. There were diamonds,
large or small, in every variety of
form, ali over her dress and person,
wherever they could be artistically
placed. She presented an extraordi-
nary and dazzling spectacle, as she
moved languidly through the dance,
among her friends. One of the ladies
present, a connoisseur in precious
stones, who kept cool enough to take
practical observations, says the dia-
monds she wore could not have cost
less than n million dollars, and must
have represented her husband income
for at least q quarter of a year. This
same lady, who is familiar with court
life in Europe, says that the largest
collection of diamonds in the posses
sion of any European Empress or
Queen, belongs to the present German
Empress, but, she adds, even Augusta
herself could not make diamond
show which would begin to compare
with that made by Mrs. Astor on
Thursday evening of last week. In
these hard times the Astors are occa-
sionally liberal in their benefactions.
For instance, there was a banquet for
twenty-four given st the : stor mansion
the other day, and in front of each
lady's plate there was gift for her of
costly dOn6ennicrc, exquisitely
wrought with precious stones, and
about the size of an ordinary snuff
box; and each lady was also presented
with bouquet, gotten up in fashion
not to be described

long offered a staEding reward of $500 for q case

-Feorle should beware OF those impostors Who
not only try to initiate DIR. Pierce's Family

for cases of Catarrh and other diseases which
they cannot cure. Those who do not possess

An American, now resident OF Paris writes
to Washington that Minister Washburn is quite
outspoken in discussing the causes which led to
the Democratic successes at the recent elections
and believes that the agitation of the third
term was one of them. That President Grant
expects another reelection Minister WashburDe
does not believe; but at the some time he IS
free to say that he would not support General
Grant were be again crndidate, believing that
it was never intended by the trainers of the
Constitution that any man should occupy the
Presidential chair three times in succession.
Mr.. Washburne further said that he thought
President Grant had made serious mistake in
not promptly declaring before the election that
he was not candidate again for the position to
which he has twice been called.
