There are great many people in the
world who are bound by the close ties Of
blood TO the man who said that he had laid
up two shillings, one for himself and one
for the Lord, but that the one he had in
tended for the Lord had been lost in an un-
fortunate speculation.

THE 100000 DIAMONDS.
How the KhediVcs Present was FINAL
lY Disposed Of.

The famous diamond necklace presented
by the khedive Of Egypt to Gen. Sherman's
eldest daughter on the occasion Of her mar
riage to Lieutenant Fitch has at last ceased
to have any public history 1t will be rem
enbered that the necklace valued by the
custom house authorities at $780, 900, was
held some time for the payment Of $40, 900
duties which Lieutenant Fitch, not being
rich, could not pay. Congress finally pass
an act authorizing the custom house Off
GERS to deliver the diamonds to him free of
duty, which was done, and they were sent
to Washington for safe keeping in the
Treasury. After this Lieutenant Fitch as
certained that the yearly taxes on the da-
monds in st. Louis County, Mo. where he
lived, would be much more than his salary,
and he once more found them an elephant
on his hands. His father-in-law, General
Sherman, took pity on the boy, and return
ed the necklace with thanks TO the donor in
Egypt Upon receiving them the Khediye
wrote TO the General, saying that was not
his desire that the diamonds should be
given to any one member of the family,
and having learned that he had four daugh-
ters, it was his wish then that the dia-
mOnds should be mounted in sets, and di-
vided equally between them. These daugh-
ters are Mrs. Fitch (nee Minnie Sherman),
Ella Sherman, Lizzie Sherman, and Ra-
chel Sherman. The necklace was then re-
turned to the Sherman family, and mount
ed in four magnificent pendants, four
pairs of splendid solitaire ear rings, and
eight rings. These four ladies are now the
happy possessors Of four complete suits of
diamonds, the value of each suit being at
least $75, 900. This makes each of them
rich in her own right, through the generos-
ry Of Egypt's former ruler,

towards the latter part of this week, when
he will examine the various plans propos-

be submitted and considered, and the pro-
position of using wood and saw dust, which
can be obtained at small cost sill also be
considered in all points, The cost of this
fuel is little. but itsihe2t producing quail

Quoted in separate establishment from
the mills. There ares-other propositions
before the commissioners, as to real estate
which can be obtained wherein to erect
works, and these points will also be dis
cussed in conjunction with Mr. Holly
while here. There will be no difficulty in
obtaining subscribers for stock, or for
getting the company thoroughly in active
operation in short time. but the commits
sioners deem it advisable to consider the

likely to be agreeable to the citizens gen.
orally and commend itself as the most
feasible plan.

The Action Of the Council.

The action of the council last evening
proves this much-that the aldermen who
have steadily voted against the Immediate
redistricting of the city and in favor OF
continuing the subordinate officers sppoia-
tive, have acted from sense of duty. and
that they do not propose to be driven from
their convictions of right by the crack OF
the party whip. The Union has labored
necessarily to force their pet scheme
through the council, but the efforts have
proved futile. Threats. fattery. ridicule,
sarcasm. and the party whip have been
used at times to compel the refractory
councilmen to do the bidding OF the
would be party masters, but without avail.
Last evening was the last ditch, and extra
exertions were used for final effort. The
columns of the Union on Sunday were full
of the "plan" Of the experienced" editor
and 10 the strongest terms the urgent
necessity for the immediate redistricting
of the city was portrayed. AS if enough
had not been said in the columns of the
| Union, the chief editor resorted
to personal interviews, and in glowing Ian
guage tried to demonstrate the urgent
necessity" for creatiag city ring
more properly-doing rs the Union dictat-
ed regardless of personal convictions.
| But alas; it was all in vain, for last evening
the aldermen, utterly oblivious to the
wailiugs of the Union, did not re-district
the city and did not make the marshal
| and subordinate Offices elective. This il
| in accordance with THE ARGUS views sc
frequently expressed, and by pursuing the
course they did. the aldermen showed
themselves above party and acted as rep
resentative of the whole people. There is
nothing whatever to be gained by redis'
tricting the city now, except the election
of IL instead of ten aldermen, while to
elect all the city officers. would be fata
mistake, and destroy the independence oil
the subordinate Offices, which should be
conducted on business basis and not run
as political machinery to help this or tina,
party to retain power. The thanks of the
entire eonnLnisy sre dye the council, tor
their action in refusing to be driven from
the manly stand they took as the represen-
tatjves not of party or clique, but of the
whole people
