Diamonds.

The value OF the diamond as an OrDa-
ment has been appreciated from the
earliest ages, and in the East the mining
OF these precious stones has, from time
fmmemorial, been q prerogative of royal
ty Tho Oldest diamond mines in the
world are those of India, and evidence
OF the singular productiyene: IS of the In
dian mines Is found in the fact that
though work has been carried on In them
since before written history had an ORR
gin, many of them are still, il no. as ro-
ductive as ever, sufficiently so to Justify
the continuance of work. The Indian
mines arc not only the oldest, but are
also the most extensive in the world, the
diamond district of the peninsula extend
ing from near the River fenar in the
South to the River Some in the North, a
tract in the Ia Deccan over 700 miles
from north TO south and from thrty TO
geo miles in width. Not everywhere
throughout this vast extent Of country
are diamonds found, but here ard there
the diggngs are extensive, while al
most anywhere, a "prospec5" of the
soil gives INDICATE ms Of good dia-
mond territory. In this wide extent
there arc many important mines Some
of tho best have long been exhausted,
and at present the most extensive dig
gings are at Kudapah, Karn il and Ell
lore, where many hundred THOUSAND
dollars worth OF diamonds ar annually
taken from the soil. Some o. the most
productive territory is in the dominions
of the Nizam Of Hyderabad, and here
were the long famous mines OF Golconda
This was the name given them, lut in
reality Golconda is not anamc Of a mine
or even of a district, hut of fortress
round which a town has grown up. In
former days the castle was held by II
strong garrison, and the gems from all
the surrounding country were gathered
into tic fortress as pia Of security;
hence Golconda tecame a market for
the mines of Central India, and the Col
conda gem might come from any
one of hundred mines in the
vicinity. Formerly all mining was

Under the supervision OF the In
dian potcntates bat in all the d diamond
districts of India the diamond digging is
now ca ried on in a dcsultory fashion
by the natives. The Indian diamonds
are found only in comparatively recent
alluvial deposits, there being generally
an upper surface composed of loan and
sand, perhaps two feet in thickness,
under which lies stratum of b ack e ay
from two To four feet thick, and under
this again the diamond soil, stiff clay
intermingled with large round stones.
Here is the diamond hunters harvest.
The deposit is from two TO three feet in
thickness, and after bel ng reached by
the removal Of the everything strata, is
removed and treated in one or two ways.
When water is abundant and easily
avail able, the mud is washed through a
sieve and the stones remaining in the
sic 20 are examined to ascertain what
gems II ay be among their number When
the mine is I'm dry locality, the mud is
removed, DIR cd in the sun, then broken
Into powder and subjectedvto q close
scrutiny, The utmost degree of care
must be exercised in exam ming the soil
from the diamond layer, in order that
no gems may be overlooked, for a dia-
mond the size Of a pin h ad is the reward
of many days labor, and its loss is not
TO be replaced.
AS at present conducted in the Dec.
can. diamond mining scarcely pays en-
pcnses, even when the laborer considers
t. cents a day an ample return for h s
excrtiOns The surface soil is removed
from small area and an examination
mace of the diamond stratum When
the indications appear promising, the
mining IL continued, but should the la.
bOrcr Judge that hs efforts are being
thrown away, he at once abandons that
loca ity and seo cts some other point
The consequence is, that although an
immense amount of work is done every
year in the diamond regions, so unsys-
tematically is IL carried on, that the re-
su is are very roor. Occasionally gem
of good size is found, and competent
authorities say that il the mines were
conducted in sc cntic or systematic
manner, considerable results m ght be
attained But perhaps this is aging
too much, for no business is more uncer-
tain than diamond mining. The finest

Too Eager.

The Companion recently printed a
story about Il woman who had no
doubt that she could paint pictures If
a certain famous artist would only
tell her how he did it," The Boston
Courier has a similar anecdote, and
the two, If we are to believe them,
seem to indicate that the old saying,
Art is long" is no longer universally
belied, even for substance OF doc
trine."
A well-knOwn vocal teacher OF Bos-
ton, whose reputation brings him
pupils from all over the country, re-
lates that there once came 20 him a
lady who announced herself as a
music teacher from a Western city,
and declared her intention Of taking
course Of lessons. She asked his
terms, and pronounced them satisfac-
tory, and then went on to talk about
the time OF lessons.
You see," she explained, 81 have
only limited time in Boston, and |
must manage so as to get the whole

three weeks" she replied.
Twenty lessons in three weeks"
he exclaimed aghast. "How could
that be done?"
oh" she responded easily, Il
could take two lessons some days"
YES" the teacher answered, cor
you might take the whole twenty
lessons one after the other all at once.
That would only take about ten
hours"
The face of the lady frightened.
Would you really be willing to
give them to me that way2" she asked.
Then | could get home inside Of ten
days, and get my advertisement as
your pupil printed before the end Of
vacation" And the amusing part Of
the story is that the woman could
not be made TO see the absurdity Of
her suggestion.

large party Of well-arme | men began 20
make mysterious researches in the
province where tn negroes had found
the stones They were diamond hunt

In small town Of Northern Yer
mont the inhabitants are noted for
their early marriages. An unmarried
young woman who has passed her
twenty-ffth birthday is universally
regarded as an "old maid" and IA
young man who has reached the same
age in an unwedded state is pro-
nOunced confirmed bachelor, and
the young people themselves appear
TO accept the current opinion.
