BOGUS DIAMoNDs.-This branch of
trade tolerates its humbuga just as
freely as the nutmeg vendors do their
wooden rivals in that business. An
alysis is easier than synthesis. 1t is
harder to put together than to take
apart-to construct than to destroy.
Any chemist can dissect an organic
body, animal or vegetable, and tell its
constituent elements; but all the skill
Of the whole human race cannot make
one blade Of grass There is the same
difficulty in the reproduction Of inor-
ganic bodies. The composition of the
diamond has been known fer ages.
Every effort to produce diamonds out
OF their component parts has failed.
MacTear's supposed discovery turned
out to be only an Illusion. Mr.. Han
nay is now said to be able TO obtain
small particles Of crystalized carbon.
They may be of the same nature as
diamonds, but they are not in fact dia-
monds after all. He admits that the
manufacture of these gems has not yet
become practical reality. Alchemy
is not science, but dream, and it is
not likely that it will ever be anything
more. H

STRIKING PoR BLAIsE.--The editor
Of the Bellefonte Republican is sending
out columns Of matter advocating the
nomination of Blaine, although the
Radical State Convention instructed
for Grant Here is one paragraph Of
his last effusion, from Col. Tngersoll:
Like an armed warrior, like plumed knight,
james O. Blaine marched down the halls Of the
American oongress and threv his shining lAnss

honor. For the Republican party to desert this
gallant leader nov Il A. though an army should
desert their General upon the held Of battle.
