BIsMARCK's CHERRIES.

The Paris Figaro publishes the follow
ing amusing incident, which is said to
have taken place during one of the state
dinners at Berlin, and at which the late
Lord Beaconsfeld and the marquis of
Salisbury were present:
Prince Bismarck, who is well known
to be a great eater, filled his plate with
cherries; the marquis of Salisbury OBJ
served it.
"Pnnce," said he, suddenly, ''what
you are doing is very unhealthy"
"What2" said Prince Bismarck, in as
constituent.
"You have swallowed two cherry
stones.n
"You are Mistaken" said the prince,
with marked GOODNESS.
"Never!" replied Salisbury, with that
hauteur which characterizes the proud
English aristocracy.
Monsieur lie Marquis!" said Bismarck,
his eyes shooting fire.
1t was at this moment that Lord Bea-
consfeld came to the rescue.
"Perhaps," he insinuated, in his soft
est voice, "you are both right; your
highness must be 50 occupied with Sc
rious thoughts that you might inadvert-
emily have swallowed tiny stone"
"Twow interrupted Salisbury, in a de-
cided tone.
"Or two," continued Lord Beacons-
field, as calmly as possible; "and you,
my dear lord and colleague, enjoy such
good sight that nothing escapes you.
Now, prince and marquis, will you allow
me to decide this difficult question:
"How?" murmured Bismarck.
"Your plate, highness, if you please2"
This last was in English, the CORE
spondent adding that Lord Beaconsfeld
was the only diplomatist at Berlin who
never talked French. The plate was
sent to Lord Beaconsfeld, who at once
emptied the contents on the table. All
eyes were now fixed on him. With his
long, bony, agile fingers covered with
precious stones, he began to arrange what
looked more like child's game than an
occupation worthy of such a distin-
guished minister. He put all the stones
in line, and placed a stem on each
stone. Then, in that clear, piercing
voice that has so often moved the house
of commons, the English prime minister
began to count one, two, three, and so
on to forty-seven stones, and likewise
with the stems, till he counted forty
nine. The proof was there-two stones
were wanting.
Bismarck rose and said, in an agitated
voice: Marquis, you are right" then,
turning, said in a loud voice: "Lord
Beaconstield, you are great mani"

HELENA, MoSr,, September 2.-Arajor
J. W. Hathaway, Just from Fort ala:innis,
reports that last week a Missouri river
steamer en- route to Benton, met five men
on the raft, and believing them escaped
horse thieves, took them in charge. At
Rocky Point, forty miles north Of Fort
;Masinnis, the water. became too
low for the boat to proceed further
and the prisoners were turned over
to- men OH shore with instructions
to deliver them to the Sheriff. It hassincc
been ascertained that the men ashore were
cowboys, and as nothing more has been
heard OF the prisoners the conclusion is
they were hung. That section is q cattle
range, luninhabited except by cowboys,
who are rcticent concerning the mortality
among horse thieves, SO it is difficult to as
certain the facts as TO the prisoners iate.
Jerry: Owens, notorious horse thief; is
known to be one OF the missing men. The
names Of the Others arc unknown.

Question Concerning proprietorsl.ip Of
tho Washington Monument.
WAsnlSoroS, September e.-The huge
marble shaft in honor Of General Wash
ingtonis now almost completed, and pre-.
plrations for celebrating the event are be.
ing discussed, when now comes very
troublesome question us to who owns the
monument. It seems that nearly FORTY
years ago, during the administration OF
President Polk, Il deed was executed anG
signed blythe President giving to the own.
ership and control OF the Washington Ma.
tional Monument Society the grounds OH
which the structure stands. The land has
never been formally transferred back TO
the Government, though Congress has
ever, since the work was resumed some
years ago, app iopriatel the money to
carry it on. Somebody now suggests
that after all OF the thousands OF
dollars expended by the Government TO
thus commemorate the iliustrious services
of, the man who was first in war. first in
peace, and first in the hearts OF his country
men, the land OIL which it stands is,
owned by private parties, to-wit, the
Washington National Monument. Asso:ia-
ton: Just here .another man with long
memory recollects that Congress has
already done something to meet this yery
emergency. The act OF Congress OF August
2.lS16, providing for the completion OF
the monument contains a proviso that be-
fore! any portion OF the money thereby
appropriated should be expended all the
property and rights Of the Monumental
Society should be transferred to the
United States No formal conveyance II,
accordance with this proviso has ever been,
made butfit is believed That even ii the
Society should claim. ownership 2of the.
property, and seek to control it in opposi-.
ton to the authority Of tho government.
the court would decide that the acceptance
and expenditure Of the money would vest
the proprietorship'in the United States, 81
The question over whicllthe has al!
ready been SO much controversy was set
tied to.day, however, by inquirins at the
State Department, where it.. WIS stated
that the, property was conveyed to the
Government on January 10, 1877, by w.
w. Corcoran and John iB. Clark, 9 cxccu.
tive officers Of the society. The deed was
