flic New Diamond Districts The reports from the diamond diggings of the Cape of Good Hope read like a page from Sindbad the Sailor. Huts plastered with mud from the river beds, in which are inibeded gems of immense value, rough' diamonds, worth a Prince's ransom, worn in the gaudy coiffure of African belles, and traders' pockets filled with the same precious jewels, like little boys' with jackstones, are among their features. The digging is most active in the Vaal and Orange rivers, including a district about as large as the State Massachusetts. Ttie three principal diggings have netted $5,000,000 up to the present time. The miners simply go to digging when they arrive and always find their claim pans out richly. A reception given by President Brandt, of the Iransvaal Republic, at Bloemfontein, is described by a correspondent as gotten up for the almost express purpose of giving the Vaal river diamonds a regular displ&y. Some Sf the "court" ladies present appeared to be almost loaded down with diamonds. One lady in particular made a special display of the precious jewels. Her dark hair was rolled and puffed, and fairly studed with brilliants. She wore cluster rings outside of her white kids and gold bracelets, with galaxiesof starry gems. On her bosom she wore a single brilliant valued at £11,000. The lityvyy flounces of her dress were looped up all around and fastened with cluster of the same precious jewels. A person might have walked behind her in the crowd and plucked whole fortunes from her person by the handful.

A CANADIAN clergyman, who became tired of his wife, had her incarcerated in a mad-house by fraud and deception. It is stated that he gave her liquor until she had the delirium tremens, when he made the doctors beliey,e that the woman was really crazy.

BOSTON, October 19.—The Republican Fifth' Congressional District to-day renominated B. F. Butler for Congress.

Gen. Butler spoke freely in regard to the fishery trouble, sayiug that there were two solutions to the matter, one to defend ourselves, and the other to declare no interview with Great Britian until the Alabama claims were settled, and we can afford to wait, and she will be the loser. He declares his intention to oppose the income tax and the importation of Chinese laborers, and favors the reduction of the gradual payment of the national debt.

STAUNTON, VA., October 19.—W. W Corcoran, an eminent Washington banker, had a narrow escape from death this morning. He attempted to get on the cars while in motion, and was hanging to the lower step of the platform, being prevented from getting on by the crowd in front of him, when he came in contact with a piano lying close up to the cars on the depot platform, and was knocked senseless.

Another gentleman from Washington also attempted to get on the cars, was thrown off and dragged a short distance before the cars could be stopped. Both a3cidents occurred on the platform of the rear car, which accounts for their escape from instant death.

OUR GIRLS.—A cotemporary boasts of the many beautiful girls in his city. Now, Terre Haute is not behind in beautiful women, any more than it is in beautiful houses, a magnificent location, an industrious and live population, but we hafe a few who are styled the "made-up" sort. We are aware that these dear girls are doing all this to please the male portion of community, and at the risk of health and life, but we most earnestly protest against such a costly sacrifice. No reasonable objection can be made to neatness, and even costliness of attire, if it is preferred, but too many of the fair ones of this city, as well as ajl others, torture their forms and burden their heads, until they gradually waste away, and at last, fill a premature grave. Now, in the good old days of yore, it was not so, for then laws were enacted to govern the now growing evil. We of course could not sanction the passage of stich odious enactments in this age of progress and "women's rights," but as a matter of curiosity, present an enactment which was made in England over one hundred years ago, and re-enacted in 1770, just one hundred years ago wnen George the III was King. It read as follows: "Any person who shall, by means of rouge or of blanc, of perfumes, of essences, of artificial teeth, of false hair, of colon espagnol, of steel stays, of hoops (the crinoline of the century ago), of highheeled shoes, or of false hips (!), entice any of his Majesty's male subjects into marriage, shall be prosecuted for sorcery, and the marriage shall be declared null and void."

This, it must be confessed, was a severe penalty, but the above only shows that in this particular, our young ladies of the present, have not made the most wonderful advancement.

.THERE was another magnificent display of the Aurora Borealis last night, at about half past nine o'clock. It commenced in the northwest, and gradually extended until the whole northern heavens were illuminated, notwithstanding the heavy rain. Iu some respects it was more brilliant than the one 'on Friday night last. It was not of long duration, only lasting about 10 or 15 minutes.

BASE BALL.—We are requested to state that the Indianapolis base ball club will play a match game with the Vigos of this city, to-morrow afternoon, on the grounds of the latter, which are situated north of the city on the Rockville Railroad. The game will no doubt be an interesting one. All are invited to see the gam^

Napoleon in the Days of His Glory.

It seems but yesterday that the writer beheld his Imperial Majesty in all his glory at a ball in the Tuilleries, blazing in the splendor of full military unilorm— which, by the way, was not more becoming to his body than congenial to his mind, although he seems to have thought that nom, as well as noblesse oblige, and to have determined in consequence to be a Napoleon in his very buttons. He was asoldier,however, by aspiration, not by inspiration, like his illustrious predecessor, and has met the fate which every cobbler experiences who doesn't stick to his last. As a general rule, lie was very calm, but he was certainly not so on the occasion alluded to. A whole crowd of Yankees of both genders wa9 to be introduced by a minister who was as green as any of his compatriots, and whose rush at him when he appeared, and familiar seizure of his arm, might have discompostd the nerves of Diogenes. The presentation was pretty much like that by which Sir William Temple, Lord Palmerston's brother, mortally offended his countrymen at Naples, when he said to old Bomba, ''Your Majesty, Lady Butler and the rest of the English''Lady Ellinor's being the only title in the lot. The only American presented to his Excellency was a tremendously tall Judge, to whom the Emperor was obliged to look up in a most neck stretching style. His Majesty, however, not liking to be looked down upon by law, any more than to be elbowed by diplomacy, made the conversation brief enough for the very soul of it. He disap-

BERLIN, Oct. 20.—The terms" of the capitulation of the fortress and garrison of Metz have been agreed upon at the Prussian headquarters at Versailles between the French General Berrin and King William. The following are the conditions under which the capitulation is made:

Bazaine will sign the treaty of peace between France and Prussia, as the plenipotentiary for Napoleon. Marshal l»azaine's army to be disarmed, but to remain in Metz. Napoleon's son, Prince Imperial, to ascend the throne of France, and Marshal Bazaine to be nominated Regent.

The receipts of the terms of the capitulation of Metz, and the prospective return of peace has produced intense excitement in this city. Intensity of feeling was felt throughout all circles, particularly on the stock exchange, where an unusually great amount of business was transacted to-day.

BERLIN, Oct. 20.—The French village ofChapindun, south of Chartres, has been captured by a Prussian column from Orleans, after ten hours' heavy fighting. The town was defended by barricades which were stormed and carried by the Prussians, supported by batteries. The French Garde Mobile and freeshoofers retreated towards lieruanse.

There she stood for some minutes facing the universal Yankee nation, who made no signs. At length, supposing, in her modesty, she had been gazed at enough, and preferring doubtless the music in the ball room to the silence of the hall of reception, she made a universal courtesy to the spectators, who unanimously responded, without a word on either side being said. ..

DRILL!

(Kulin, the celebrated Drill Inventor's lastand best.)

A Force Feed Drill, Operated by Spui Gearing.

NO LOOSE COO WHEELS ABOUT IT!

Impossible to Choke It—The Feed Changed ir One Second—"Will Sow Any Kind of Grain or Seed. Whether Clean or Foul!

The grain Is distributed by means of small double spiral feed wheels working in cups under the hopper these wheels carry the grain upwards to a discharge opening in the cup and orce it out, and with it farce out straws and other obstructions. It is utterly impossible to choke it, and as evidence of this fact the wheat we have in our sample machine is half chair, and by turning the wheel it is carried through as well as clean wheat.

It will sow any kind of grain, and in any quantity desired. In other force feed drills to change the feed you remove one cog wheel and put In another aud the cog wheels are loose and liable to be lost. In the

FARMERS' FRIEirDDRIIX

the wheels are all fastened to the drill, and the feed is changed by by simply moving a small lever it is done in one second.
