HONDURAS IN REBEL HANDS.
President Levia Flees and Is Reported
to Be in Nsw Orleans.

Advices brought by the steamer Dunwise
from Honduras indicate that the revolution
lists have carried almost everything before
them and it seems to be only question
of fow days when they will be in full con-
troll of the Government The Dunwise lett
Ceiba for New Orleans on Wednesday and all
but two departments were in control OF the
rebels.
The capture Of the ports OF Celoa ana
Truxilla was effected almost without oppo'
sition with the aid of the steamship Rover,
which had been seized and improvised as
man-of-war. President Levia, who had fed
from the interior, leaving General Vasquez
in command was at Peurto Cortez, on the
Gull Coast. and an expedition was being pre-
pared against that place in order TO capture
Leyia who has but few men.
When Puerto Cortez is subjugated IL ls tne
intention of the rebels to attack Ruttan ana
the Utila Island. At the latter place 1t IS
said there is quantity OF arms. NO news
Is obtainable from the interior. The people
generally have fled from the coast Decauso
tine rebels have been forcing them into tnelr
army. This has sadly interfered with the
banana trade. -, ,o
The Dunwise brought over the late Gus
toms administrator at Ceiba, Nj. Castlllol,
merchant and four other refugees. IL Is re-
ported that Castilloi is none other than fresi-
dent Levia in disguise, but this lacks con-
hKmation.

Making Diamonds.

The microscopic diamonds recently
made BY NJ, Henri Moissan are not the
first real diamonds made by the chemist.
Some years ago, Mr.. Hannay, OF Glas-
COW. succeeded in making few small
gems, and another Glasgow chemist not
long ago announced in an American
scientific journal that he was making OK
nerlments in this direction, and bad OBJ
tained promising results. Moissan, how
ever. was the first to form a gem by
means of the high temperature OF the
electric furnace, though the idea OF doing
SO is not exactly novel. Moissan obtains
a temperature of from 5000 to 4ooo de-
grees Centigrade is his electric cruc-
ible. and fuses iron or silver, which abb
serbs the carbon of sugar. When the
fused metal cools, part of the carbon
separates from it again in the form OF
CRYSTALS, black or white-that is to say,
black diamond, or carbonado, and ordi'
nary clear diamond. The capitalization
seems to be facilitated by pressure, which
is produced by the expansion OF the sugar
carbon as it cools. The diamond crys-
tails were exceedingly minute, and quite
unfit for jewelry. Moreover, the process
is very expensive. Times.

So swift ye wing away
I scarce can mark your trailing plnions'
Does there warmer day

Too LONG will winter seem without you,
Too tardy coming, spring.

In warmer climes delights to tarry.
Alas we may not more entreat you,

When other birds wiu carol welcomes,
And tales of JOY relate.
We can but pray, sweet friends,
That no harsh storms will ever meet you

During last summer he spent some time in
the black forests of Germany, studying the
insects, and has found a smallprolific insect,
which feeds upon the injurious ones, multi
plies rapidly, and is not injurious to timber;
Several thousand have been imported, and

4 onrlons Mineral Formation.

Considerable interest has been aroused
among foreign miners aud metallurgists
by the discovery Of new meneral at
the famous Broken Hill silver mines.
II is an iodlde of copper, and is OF a
dark chocolate color, except that the
tips of the honey-comb formation are
reddish and cerotic where fractured.
The mineral presents curious chemi-
cal problem, occurring as 1t does In a
silver-bearing lode, and being formed
in the midst of argentiferous minerals,
If net in the presence OF silver solutions.
Considering the strong affinity OF silver
for iodide, the presence OF copper iodide
in such position is believed to be al
most unaccountable.
