Princer Munificence of the Great Mogul of India. Nothing but ridicule could have at- tended any attempt on the part of the Prince of Wales to rival the Mahomâ€" medan rulers of India in ostentation and magnificence. In the matter of presents alone his utmost munificence would have been surpassed by a single act of favor displayed by one of the former sovereigns of Hindostan. For instance, J ehan Gheer bestowed upon his son, when setting out to take the command of the army in the Deccan, “ a sword, the scabbard of which was of gold set With stones valued at 100,000 rupees (£10,000), a dagger at £4,000, an elephant and two horses, all their furniture of gold, set with stones,” and a state carriage built in imitation of one sent out to the Emperor by King James I. On his birthday Jehan Gheer was so richly adorned with jewâ€" els that Sir Thomas Roe protests that in all his life he “ never saw such ines- timable wealth together.” “ The time,” he continues, “ was spent in bringing his greatest elephants before him ; some of which, being lord elephants, had their chains, bells, and furniture of gold and silver, with many gilt banners and flags carried about them, and eight or ten elephants waiting on each of them, clothed in gold, silk, and silver. In this manner about twelve companies passed by, most richly adorned, the first having all the plates on his head and breast set With rubies and emeralds, being a beast of wonderful bulk and beauty. They all bowed down before the King, making their reverence very handsomely.” SIDE ARMS 0F PRICELESS VALUEâ€"~ELE- PHANTS COVERED WITH GOLD AND JEVVELSâ€"STREETS CARPETED \VITH SILKS AND VELVET. On one occasion when the King hon- ored his Minister with his company at dinner, the road was covered for a whole mile with Silks and velvets sewed together, and the cost of the banquet was estimated at £60,000. On his birthday J ehan Gheer was weighed against seven kinds of commodities, such as rupees, jewels, cloth of gold, silks, calicoes, spices, honey, and but- ter, which Were afterward distributed among the poor. “The scales were of beaten gold, set with small stones, rubies, and turquoises ,- they hung by chains of gold, and for more surety there were silk ropes. The beam was covered with plates of gold, The great lords of the nation sat about the throne on rich carpets, expecting the King’s coming out. At length he appeared, covered with diamonds, rubies and pearls. He had several strings of them about his neck, arms, wrists, and turâ€" ban, and two or three rings on every finger. His sword, buckler, and throne were also covered with precious stones. Among the rest I saw rubies as big as walnuts, and pearls of a prodigious magnitude. He got into one of the scales, sitting on his legs like a tailor.” After all, the royal gifts, were not in general very costly. “Then the weigh- ing was over, basins full of silver alm- onds, nuts, and other fruits were placed before the King, who threw them about in handfuls, while his nobles scrambled for them. Observing that Sir Thomas Roe would not stoop to such meanness, Jehan Gheer took up a basin that was nearly full and poured it into his cloak. The courtiers, however, “ had the im- pudence to thrust in their hands so greedin ” that the worthy knight had some trouble to rescue these proofs of the royal favor from their rapaeity. He had been told beforehand that the King would scatter fruits moulded in massive gold, but to his disgust he dis- covered that they consisted of very thin silver, :1 thousand of them barely weighing £20. Nevertheless, “ I saved," he says, “ the value of ten or twelve crowns, and these would have filled a large dish. I keep them to show the vanity of these people. I do not believe that the King that day threw away much above the value of £100." ' Bernier, indeed, says that, although India was an abyss that swallowed up the gold and silver of other lands, he (lid not regard the Mogul as being ex- traordinarily rich. Snah J ehan, for example, after exercising commendable thrift for the space of forty years, left only six millions in the treasury, with- out taking into account, however, the precious stones, of which he confesses there was a great store. The value of the throne alone he reckoned at three millions sterling, being covered with the spoils of Patans and Rajpoots, and the voluntary offerings of tributary princes, governors, and nobles. At times the muniflcence of the Delhi Emperors savored of reckless extrava- gance. A singer, having delighted the Royal ears, was rewarded with his own weight in silver coin, amounting to 6,300 rupees, and with an elephant to carry his treasure to his house. The famous N oormehal, having shot four tigers with a matchlock from the back of an elephant, was presented by the enamored J ehan Gheer with a pair of emerald bracelets, valued at £10,000, while a thousand rupees was distributed in charity. The Great Akbar sur- passed both his predecessors and sucâ€" cessors in personal wealth. According to Ferishta, that illustrious potentate numbered among his possessions coined silver computed at a hundred millions of rupees; choice rubies, one maund, or 80 lbs. weight; common rubies and other precious stones, ten maunds ,' un- coined gold, seventy maunds; uncoined silver, 160 maunds; copper pice, fifty billions (four piee: lid.) ; elephants, above 5,000 ; horses, 12,000 ,' deer, 5,000 ; hunting leopards, over 900 3 and hawks, 500. It is recorded, pro- bably with considerable exaggeration, that Akbar’s treasury contained ninety millions sterling in silver coin and gems of price, and that on one occasion he filled a tank near Futtehpur Sikri with nine crores of rupees, equivalent .V---- “-“v v.

[From the Pall Mall Gazette] The first coral I ever raised was in Catoche, when I was working down into the Gulf of Mexico, some years ago. While employed thus I heard of the loss of the schooner Foam. The first mate and three men got saved, but the captain, his daughter and three men got lost. I slung round to see if she could be raised. After we’d spent the best part of the week, we sailed over to her and dropped anchor. It was a lovely Sunday morning when we struck her. She lay in sixty feet of water on a bottom as white as the moon. Looking down I could see her leaning over on one side upon the coral reef. When I got down to her I saw she’d torn a great gap in the reef when she run against it. The mainmast was gone and hung by the fore. I clam- bered up. I saw whole shoals of fish plying in and out of the hatches. Filst I went to look for the bodies, for 1 never like to work while there’s any of them about. Finding the forecastle empty I went to the two little state cabins. It was rather dark, and I had to feel in the lower bunks. There was nothing in the first, and in the other the door was locked. I pried it open, and shot back the lock with my adze. It flew open and out something fell right against me. I felt at once it was the woman’s body. I was not exactly frightened, but it shook me rather. I slung it from me and went out into the light a bit until I had got hold of my- self. Then I turned and brought her outâ€"poor thing I She’d been very pretty, and as I carried her in my arms, with her white face nestling against my shoulder, she seemed as if she was only sleeping. I made her fast to the line as carefully as I could to send her up, and the fish played about her as if they were sorry she was going. At last I gave the signal, and she went slowly up, her hair floating round her head like a pillow of golden seaweed. That was the only body I found there, and I managed after to raise pretty considerâ€" able of the cargo. One of my expeditions was among the silver banks of the Antilles, the loveliest place I ever saw, where the white coral grows into curious tree-like shapes. As I stepped along the bottom it seemed as if I were in a frosted for- est. Here and there trailed long fronds of green and crimson seaweed. Silver- bellied fish flashed about among the deep brown and purple sea-ferns, which rose high as my head. Far as I could see all round in the transparent water were different colored leaves, and on the shore piles of shells so bright in color that it seemed as if I had stum- bled on a place where they kept a. stock of broken rainbows. I could not work for a bit, and had a quarter determina- tion to sit down for a little and wait for a mermaid. I guess if those sea girls live anywhere, that is the spot. “ I'm a lone woman, capting, as you well know,” shag squeaked, “ and if this boat blows up I depend on you to call me I” It was the same old lady who was seen walking up and down Levee street yesterday While the boat was taking on freight. She was ticketed for New Orleans, and the first night aboard the boat she opened her state room door just before retiring, and yelled: “ Capting ! Capting !" “ What’s wanted, madam ?" inquir- ed that official, as he approached the door. After walking the inside out of half an hour I thought I had better go to work and blast for treasure. A little bit on from where I sat were the re- mains of a treasure ship. It was :1 Britisher, I think, and corals had formed all about what was left of her. The coral on the bottom and round her showed black spots. That meant a deposit of either iron or silver. I made fairly good hauls every time I went down, and sold one piece to Barnum, of New York. . After I left there I had a curious ad- venture with a shark. I was down 011 a. nasty rock bottom. A man never feels comfortable -‘on them ; he can’t tell what big creature may be hiding under the huge quarterâ€"deck sea. leaves which grow there. The first part of the time I was visited by n. porcupine fish, which kept sticking its quills up and bobbing in front of my helmet. Soon after I saw a big shadow fall across me, and looking up, there was an infernal shark playing about my tubing. It makes you feel chilly in the back when they’re about. He came down to me slick as I looked up. I made at him and he shied ofl‘. For an hour he worked at it, till I could stand it no longer. If you can keep your head level it’s all right, and you’re pretty safe if they’re not on you sharp. This ugly brute was twenty feet long, I should think, for when I lay down all my length on the bottom he stretched a considerable way ahead of me, and I could see him beyond my feet. Then I waited. They must turn over to bite, and my lying down both- ered him. He swam over me three or four time, and then skulked ofi' to a thicket of seaweed to consider. I knew he’d come back when he’d settle his mind. It seemed a long time waiting for him. At last he came viciously over me, but, like the time before, too far from my arms. The next time I had my chance, and ripped him with my knife as neatly as I could. A shark always remembers he’s got busi- ness somewhere else when he’s cut, so off this fellow goes. It is a curious thing, too, that all the sharks about will follow in the trail he leaves. I got on my hands and knees, and as he swam oft I noticed four shadows slip atter him. 1 saw no more that time. They did not like my company. He agreed, and she slept soundly and peacefully.

One Sunday evening not long since a man was walking up and down in an agitated manner under the first arch of the Point Neuf in Paris. He was just about to make the irrevo- cable plunge into the Seine when suddenly he perceived a woman only a few feet from him rush forward and throw herself into the water. He jumped in after her and succeeded in rescuing the would-be suicide. When interrogated at the station house he admitted that he had come to the spot intending to drown him- self. It is now suggested that the two lives thus saved must be designâ€" ed for one another. Some years since, it will be recâ€" ollectcd, a favorite method of com- mitting suicide in Paris was to throw oneself from the top of the Vendome Column. After the Communists pulled the column down the suicides were compelled to give up that mode of destruction; but now that it has once more been set up the unfortu- tunates have begun to precipitate themselves from it to the pavement below. The column should have an iron grating placed on the top. THE Supreme Court of New York has decided that J. C.

The decision of the high court includes all dealers who sell any similar articleâ€"Port Jeflcrson (L. 1.) Leader. Miscellaneous Items MOVING A LOFTY FOURTEEN-INCH WALL \VITIIOUT DISTURBING A BRICK. A careful survey that was recently made showed that the west wall of the brick building 114 West Twenty- l'ourth street encreaehed eighteen inches upon the neighboring lot. The land trespassed upon is owned by the Catholic society called St. Vincent de Paul, and is part of a wide piece of property extending through from Twentyâ€"third to Twenty-fourth street. On the Twenty-third street front the church of the society stands, and it is proposed to erect on Twenty-fourth a pastoral residence and a school- house. To accomodate these build- ings the society need every inch of their land, and they therefore bade Mr. Mott, the owner of the encroachâ€" ing building, remove his wall. The wall is sixty-five feet in height, six- ty feet in length, and of an average thickness of fourteen inches, and the ordinary method of tearing it down, and building a new wall would have entailed heavy expenses and much time. The building was being used as a livery stable, and Mr. Mott was unwilling to vacate the premses for so long a time as he was told would be necessary. The builders whom consulted, Weeks & Brothers, urged him, however, to allow them to at- tempt to move the wall bodily, and with his consent they finished the undertaking yesterday morning. They had previously severed the con- nection of the west wall with the north and south walls, and had taken from the last two about two feet of brick and mortar. They had also sawed off from the floor timbers lengths of eighteen inches, and had sharpened the new ends of the tim- bers so that they might fit into the old beam holes on the moving u of the wall. Then, at aheightofa out (our feet above the foundation stones, ,Mr. Weeks had pierced the wall at intervals of six feet, and had inserted in each hole so made a den- ble set of heavy needle beams. The lower beam of each set had been firmly imbedded in earthwork, and the upper beam upon which the weight of the building was to rest was much shorter than the lower, but otherwise it corresponded in size; and the two lay with their vertical faces in the same plane. The hori- zontal faces which were brought in contact wore planed smooth and greased. Then the brick work sup- porting the wall had been taken otf, and the weight of the whole structure rested on the needle-beams. Yesterday morning at half-past 5 o’clock large screw-jacks were lashed to the upper sides of the lower beams, which, as has been said, were much longer than the upper beams, so that the end of each screw pressed against the end of an upper beam in such a way that the jacks when operated made the beams, with the whole wall ‘ on top of them, slide along the greas- ed surface of the lower beams. Ten screw jacks were erected, and a man . stood at each one with a lever in his. hand. At a signal given by Mr. Goodwin, who superintended the job, ‘ the ten men with their levers worked 1 their jacks in unison, so that no part1 of the wall should be pushed forward more rapidly than another. The greatest nieety was demanded, for; the great wall, more than sixty feet square, was balanced on an edge only‘ sixteen inches wide, and a jar, hOW-; ever slight, 'would have turned it over to bury the men working at its base. It is the first time that the moving of a detached wall has been attempted in such a way, and a num. ber ofdistinguished builders and of- ficials of the building department at tended. The work was slowly and carefully done. Several times the jacks were stopped and lines dropped from the summit to the base, only to show that the wall remained plumb, and delicate measurements were tak~ en to retain the face of the wall true. It was nearly ten o’clock when the work was finished, and then the wall stood exactly on the line marked by the surveyors, and the floor timbers rested in the old beam holes. Noth- ing remains to be done but to close the narrow gaps at the corners of the building, and to build a new founda- tion under the wall. The weight of the wall exceeds two hundred and seventy tons. Some time ago the Scientific Amer- ican mentioned the fact that Mr. Vi- vian was preparing a large piece of one of the Tulare county big trees to exhibit at the Centennial next year. The piece of timber selected will be sixteen feet long, and twenty~one feet in diameter at one end, and nine- teen feet at. the other. The heart of this will be taken out, leaving only about one foot of the body of the tree attached to the shell or bark. This outside shell will then be divided in- to eight equal parts, each of which will weigh four thousand pounds without the bark. It is necessary to divide it into this number of parts in order to allow it to pass through the numerous tunnels between here and Philadelphia. The eight parts will weigh about thirty thousand pounds, and will require two cars for their transportation. One solid foot of this tree weighs seventy-two pounds, being ten pounds heavier than so much water. This timber was taken out of the General Lee, a‘ tree two hundred and seventyfive feet high, and which, had it been sawn into lumber, would have pro‘ dueed a sufficient quantity to have built a very respectable young town or a large ship. It contained more than two hundred thousand square feet of lumber, besides, probably, two hundred cords of wood. The Gener- al Grant, a much larger tree than the General Lee, and the largest in the; world, growing in the same grove, is left standing, probably for the benefit of the future. A California Tree for the Gen- tennial. A Mechanical Triumph. [From the N. Y. 81111.] On Monday afternoon, Alvah Sloper, a farmer in the town of Orwell, Osweâ€"' go county, N.Y., sent his son Willi-(inn: aged 15, to the lot for a yoke of oxen,i which had been hitched to a stump by a log chain, telling him to go to a neighbor’s on another road for a pair of trucks. The boy started off with the oxen, and was not seen again until about half-past nine that evening, when three men found the oxen on a by-road, dragging his lifeless body with the log chain hooked around his neck. All his clothes had been stripped oii‘, except his shoes and the wristbands of hisi shirt; his neck was broken, his skull, crushed,and his body frightfully bruised and broken. The trail, being followed back, was seen to begin at a point not over ten rods from the stump to which the oxen were hitched when he went for them, and it was ascertained that he had been dragged more than three miles over rough and stony roads, through fields, and over a wood lot Where the timber had recently been cut. His hat and shreds of his coat, vest, and trousers were found at vari- ous points along the road. The affair aroused the intcusest excitement in the neighborhood, and at first it was be- lieved that the chain could not have got around young Sloper’s neck accidentâ€" ally, and that he must have been mur» dered. A Coroner was called, and the jury, after a thorough investigation, returned the verdict that “ the boy came to his death by having a chain hitched around his neck and being dragged by a yoke of' oxen for a mile or more over :1 rough and stony road, by which he sustained injuries about the head and neck that caused his death. How the chain became hitched is to the jury unknown, but we incline to the belief that it was an accident.” DRAG-GED THREE MILES ON A ROUGH ROAD BY A YORK 01“ OXEN. A writer in the London Gentle- man’s Magazine, who has been on a visit to the distinguished young French politician, Gambetta, gives of him this sketch; “His apartments are those of a bachelor who lives on £300 a year, and he is most amiable and unassuming. He enjoyed his cigars very much, and I enjoyed his remarks on men and events, brief butpoiuted and telling. What struck me much is that he used to be all exuberance and flow of Southern verve five years ago; now he is se» date and observant, and his self-conâ€" trol is the more remarkable as an occasional flash of the eye and a rapid exclamation betray the gener- ous warmth of his Southern blood. He listens more than he talks; and he he is particularly interested by all that relates to England. I was quite surprised to find how well ac- quainted he is with English affairs, and how attentively he follows all that goes on on this side of the chan- nel. He reads the English papers, and he is quite equal to a discussion of the current topics of public en- grossment in England. He is a strong man, otherwise he could hard- ly resist the terrible strain of work which, as a party leader, falls on his hands, for he has to attend to his newspaper, the Republique Francafse, as well as his duties at Versailles, and he allows himself but a few mov ments of rest in the day. In fact, if you wish to have my impression of him while at rest. z'rambetta is a man who seems to reserve all that is in his power for a given time, who girtshis loins for a big struggle, and, who, without affection or dangerous personal ambition, is strengthening high qualities of states- manship for the benefit of his cause rather than of himself â€"such a man as may turn out a scourge for his opponents and a savior for his party. ” Prof. Egan is about returnin to liemlquax'ters, Toronto, after a most successfu five months lect~ urin tour throu h Canada, on “ The Science of lien th, Life. an its Laws." 110 is a gentleman, courteous and refined, who combines With his rare phrenological qualifications :1 thorounh medical adâ€" ucatiou, and we candidly rccommemf the afllicted to apply to him for relief ; he is strictly honorable and confidential in his transactioxmâ€"-Napmwe Beaver.

DEPEW’S Vimmy; This is the familiar question put to every invalid by his anxious friends. Every pang that ranks the Hys tem is a silent plea of nature for help, Just :13 the collision between flint and steel produces fire, the struggle between disease and nature produces pain. Rheumatism and gout are very common, \‘el', painful and sometimes very perilous diseases. Until recently rheumatism was but very little understood by the oi dinary practicing physicians. It is essentially ft dis ease of the blood, which becomes thoroughly charged with an acid. and circulating with the blood, it comes in contact. with the fibrous tissue This tissue is m- flnmed by the acid and :i painfuldisease results. The poison is floated from joint to joint, and one after mt other is attacked in suecessmn. When the disease is fully established the patient presents a pitiable speettr ale of helpless suth ring. lie is very restless, yet he does not more. The weight of the bed clothes can barely be borne. The sweet, the \u'inefilie saliva are all sour. Every thing plainly points to the nature of the disorder, an acid poison in the blood. The lining of the heart is made of the same fibrous material, and this in turn may be attacked. converting it into :1 dqu ease of very great danger When recovery takes phu-e affected, there is often in store future bad health, pnlA pitation and dropsy. As to the treatment of rheumatism and gout, what is more in accerdmice with common sense than to do- stmy the acid.
