Long Distance Mails.

From the New York Times.
A letter sent from New York to Bang
kok, Siam, travels overland to San Fran
eiscs and thence by water, reaching its
destination in about forty three days, hav-
ing been carried nearly 13, 900 miles. A
letter mailed here for Adelaide, Australia
also goes via San Francisco, travels II, 945
miles, and is delivered usually within thir-
ty-fye days New York mail destined for
Calcutta goes by way of London, travel
ling II, 40 miles in twenty-nine days,
while mail sent from this city to Cape
Town, South Africa, goes 125 miles further
in two days less time.
Mail communication between New York
and Hong Kong ordinarily consumes one
month of time; the letters 90 by way of
San Francisco, and cover 10, 500 miles of
distance. To reach Melbourne, Austria
LA, from this city letter will travel r.,
265 miles in about thirty two days, and to
reach Sydney letter will travel II $40
miles in thirty lone days The mail route
from New York to Yokohama, via San
Francisco, is 734S miles long, and about
twenty two days are consumed in transit.
To 90 to Honolulu from this city letter

ing New York on steamer days, mail mat
ter is scheduled to reach Rome in about
ten days Madrid in ten days, London and
Liverpool in eight days, Rotterdam in nine
days, Paris in eight days, Berlin in nine
days and Athens and Alexandria in four
teen days Communication with South
American ports is mnch slower. 1t takes
twenty four days for letter to so from
New York to Rio Janeiro, which is only
about fifty miles further from this city
than is Alexandria. Mail matter going
from New York to Buenos Ayres, which
is S045 miles distant, consumes twenty
nine DAYS or thirty DAYS.

Franklin Pierce's Ring.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
The ring treasured by the descendants
of Franklin Pierce, president Of the United
States, is interesting for several reasons,
For one thing, it weighs nearly pound.
1t was presented to him by his friends
in California and has no equal in the world.
1t is of gold dug from California mine;
the circular portion is cut into squares,
which stand at right angles to each other,
and each is embellished with an odd de
sign, the entire group representing a
pictorial history of California.
There are grizzly bear in a menacing
attitude, deer bounding down slspe, an
enraged snake, soaring eagle and sal
mon. Upon another square are an Indian
with bow and arrow and native mount
aineer on horseback throwing his lasso.
Next peeps out Californian tent and a
miner at work with his pick, These de
signs are surmounted by two American
flags, with the poles crossed and groups of
stars in the angles The part of the ring
reserved for the seal is covered by deeply
carved plate of gold, with California $
arms, surmounted by the flag and inscribed
Frank Pierce in old Roman characters
This lid opens with hinge and shows
beneath a square box divided by bars of
gold into nine separate compartments, each
containing pure specimen of the varieties
of ore found in the state.
The inscription within reads, Pre-
scented to Franklin Pierce, the Fourteenth
President of the United States. The
ring is valued at 81, 600.
