The old Pricess Demidorff used to wear
the Sancy diamond as = shawl-pin. One
day she went with her husband and Jules
Janin to visit the Louvre, and taking off
her shawl, because the gallery was very
hot, gave it to Janin to carry at the same
time asking him to put the diamond pin
in his pocket until she should ask him for
it: Now, you know tho Sancy is worth
100000 francs, and Janin put it in his
vest pocket with the same sdagfroid as
if it had been = new piece Of glass. On
getting into her carriage. tho prin
cess asked for her shawl, but
forgot to inquire for the diamond, and
drove of: The next day she sent round
to Jarin for her precious stone. But no
diamond was to be found. The vest, a
white one, had gone to the wash and with
it the Sancy. Off went Janin III trepida-
ton to the domieile of the washer-woman
In order to avoid suspicion, he asked hel
quite quietly if she had found anvthing
III the pocket of his vest. "No," said
she. "Quite sure :" asked he again, be.
coming lividly pale. "Ah! yes, / did, by
the way; big piece of glass. My little
boy has it now; he is playing with it in

In the British House Of Commons, Fri
day evening; the 23d inst, DR.. Kenealy
rose and moved that royal commission
be appointed to investigate the circum.
stances of the Tichborne case. In pow.
erful speech in support Of his resolution
Kenealy alluded to tae growing dissatisfac-
tion at the result of the trials and the man.
ner in which they had been conducted by
the bench: Nothing short of royal
commission Of enquiry would content
the people Of England, who were
convinced that justice had not been
done. He stated he . had received
many letters from America to the same
effect. The discomfort had grown into =
torrent which was pouring over the land.
The late ministry partly owed itsdownfall
to its conduct. With regard to
the Iichborne case he asserted he
had positive proof that the chief justice,
Sir Alex. Cockburn, in society, while the
trial was in progress, said he would give
the claimant fifteen years Imprisonment.
He spoke in severe terms of the Petten
drcigh forgeries; and stated that the
claimant was unable to call more witness
es for the lack of funds. The penalties
for contempt Of court had been
directed against one side only. The wit.
ncsses were brow-beatcn, and the parti-
atty of the bench Was patent throug ghout
the proceedings. Kenealy declared he
had sacrificed hinselfto his sense ofhonor
and duty, and had been irretrievably
ruined in his profession. He believed the
motion before the house would never be

eifjc Railroad Of Debt.
The work Of the recent meeting Of di-
rectors Of the Northern Pacific Railroad
Company, at which Gen. Cass's resigna-
ton as president was presented and &C.
cepted, consisted principally of an inves-
tigation # the liabilities and assets as
furnished by the Company's report. By
these it appeared that the assets consist
Of $50 miles of finished road, and over
100000 acres Of land, while the liza.
bilities are mortgaged bonds to the
amount OF $30,000,O00, stock to the
amount of $25, 600, 900, which was dis
t-ibuted as premium to the bonds, and
4 floating debt Of less than $780, 600, Of
which $500, 900. is due to the directors Of
the road. Besides this there is $2,5O0,-
600 of back interest due, which is un.
classified; and which will proba.
bly, be relinquished by the bondholder 8
in their settlement of the present
difficulty. After the examination of
their report, the Committee discussed
with the Company's officers the financial
difficulties Of the road, and the best way
out Of them. Three plans were promi.
nent among tho many proposed: First, to
form IN association Of bondholders that
might be strong enough to foreclose the
mortgage and buy in the road second,
for the bondholders to exchange their
bonds for preferred stock, leaving the
completed road clear of debt rs the basis
Of \ new series Of loans, and then later to

On Monday, March 21st, DR.. Dio Lewis

at the Methodist Book Room, New York,
was invited to make some remarks. Ac-
cepting the invitation, he Immediately
commenced violent denuaciation of the
Prohibitory Liquor Law. But Z few
moments elapsed before it was quite ap-
parent that he had stirred up the friends
of Prohibition, and though allowed to
conclude his remarks, was, at the close,
completely beset with questions. In at.
tempting to answer these he made the

posed to license, opposed to the temper.

whether he ate, drank. smoked, bathed or
slept more than the others or not it is cer-
that his keeping cost Sis a days day
more than your common Secretaries. During
their short stay they consumed wine and
cigars valued at S436 25 and there is an
item Of Sla for extra meals, with large
number Of fires at S5 each. The sum Of
$325 appears, being the cost of bringing
