An astounding statement was made at

paper by Mr.. Bennett H.. Brough n

He said that since 1867, when the diam ond
fields were first discovered there hav
been exported from Cape Colony more
than $4,000. 600 carrots of diamonds, the
value of which approached e70,0O0,000
Their weight would exceed ten tons; a
heap OF them might form a pyramid with
n base niue feet square aud SIX feet hign.
Putting 1t another way, they would fiji a
