over eight carats more than the English

its color is less pure. a.'s
IL is known in England as the Effing-
ham diamond, and here as the OrIoff

to the Empress Cathaf1ne the Great by
the famous Count 0riotf. It's owner, one
LaZafef, had previously offered it for

diamond has been remarkable, but is not
accurate y known. 1t was most proba-

ingham, in East Iadla, Serinsham hav-
lag become Ettingnam, and was stolen
IRON the temple. The keeper
told us 1t was first smuggIed
into Russia by Lazaretf, who made
an lncisiOn in his leg suth-
ly deep to slip it within and thus con-
ceal it. The globe held in the hand Of
the Emperor Is of gold, surmounted by a
large sapphire and diamond. The
crown is mitre-shaped. Around the
head Is bandeau Of twenty-eight large
diamonds; the cap part is made OF arcs
composed of rows Of diamonds and
pearls, between which are leaves of sill
yer tillgree-the whole surmounted by a
CROSS OF five diamonds, resting upon one
