America's Crown Jewels. WBW lire aware that in the boud faults of the Treasury are deposited r for safe keeping a large quantity of dia monds and other precious stones which will form the nucles of the crown jew els when the country becomes an em pire. These gems all have histories. Among them is a bottle four or five inches long filled with diamonds, and there are many other kinds of precious stones. Some of them are set in gold ornaments, intended for personal wear. The first collection of which we have any authentic account has been in the custody of the Treasury officials for over foity-flve years. They were sent to President Van Buren by the Imaum of Oraanf whose capital city of Muscat, in Arabia,on the Persian Gulf, is the most widely known of all Ara bian cities to outsiders. The Imaum was the dude politician of Arabia, the best dandy of all the Bedouin kin, and having found that Martin Van Buren was two-fold sharper, keener, subtler and dandier then he was himself he sent these diamonds and pearls to him as a tribute to superior genius and morality. It takes a pretty smart scouudrel to discouut an Arab cut throat of the higher classes, but the Dutch patron of Kinderhook could do it,nnd the Imauman of Oman allow ed he could take the cake—and the dia monds,too. But after he took them he did not know what to do with them. H He had an elephant on his hands. He could not accept them for himself, al though he wanted to do so, as the Con* stitution 'expressly forebade any person connected with the Government accept ing any present or decoration from auy foreign power or potentate without ex press authority of Congress. This au thority Congress would not give. In fact, it was inexpedient at that time to ask for it. So the jewels were Gnally turned over to the Treasury, where they are now. Bat the Imaum's gift is uotall. There are in the collection superb jewels re ceived at other times and in various ways. Turquoises blue as Syrian sum mer skies ;.emerald like the reflection of Ireland's green turf in her crystal- T waved lakes ; rubies, oriental rubies, that flash a world of liquid crimson light till the eye grows dim with gaz ing ; sapphire pe&rls as white as the foam of the sea, and opals that shim mer with resinous radiance as only the precious opal can—all these are there. There are many beautiful and many quaint ornaments, jewelled brooches and ring and sword hilts : be*diamond led creeses brought from the Malay Isles by Wilkes and lots of other rare and valuable trinkets. They have no defin ite owners and are placed in the Treas ury vaults because they are too valua ble to throw away, and nobody dare to claim them, because no body has any right to them. What'disposition to make of them is a puzzle. Congress alone can authorize their disposition, and Congress, although asked several limes to do so, has declined to take any notice of them. A Baloon Frozen in the Air. Says an English exchange : A dan ger we have never heard of as menacing an aeronant before or since,nearly prov ed fatal to Mr. Gypson, who made an ascent from Bedford, many years ago. When about two miles and a half above the earth, the gas was suddenly affect ed by a rapid and powerful expansion, so that it becam 1 necessary to open the yalye and relieve the baloon of the ex treme pressure inflicted on the whole surface of the silk. But here arose an extraordinary incident—the hose of the safety valve,which had been tied up be fore leaving the earth, to prevent the admission of atmospheric air,was found to be frozen quite hard, so that it be came impossible to extend it to allow the superfluous gas to blow off. Under these circumstances, Mr. Gypson en deavored to open the valve at the crown of the baloon, but that, too, from the peculiar description of luting with which the valye was luted, was found to be inseperately frozen. As Mr. Gyp son has but one alternative, he quickly passed himself through the hoop, and, with*his knife, made a large incision in the lower part of the baloon. The gas streamed forth in one continuous stream through a two-foot opening, and and the gas that had been passed into the silken giobe,an invisible vapor rush ed out as white as the steam from a steam engine, such was the effect of the frosty air upon it. Thus the aeronauts were rescued from the jaws of destruction, for, had not such an ex pedient as the knife been adopted,noth- Wpr- ing could have prevented the silk giv ing way to the extreme force then act ing upon it,at 3i miles above the earth, for such was then their altitude, as shown by the sinking of the mercury in & the barometer. w The Missouri father did not pursue his eloping daughter, but sent a clergy man on a swift horse to overtake the couple, in order that the marriage cere mony might be performed properly.

A lantern-jawed young man stopped at the post-office recently, and yelled out : 'Anything for the Wattses V George Poteet, our polite postmaster, replied,'No, there is not.' 'Anything for Jane Watts ?' 'Nothing.' 'Anything for Ace Watts ?' 'No.' 'Anything for Bill Watts V' 'No, sir.' 'Anything for Tom Watts ?' 'No, nothing.' 'Anything for 'Fool Joe' Watts ?' 'No, nor Dick Watts.nor Jim Watts, nor Sweet Watts, nor any other Watts, dead, living, unborn, native, foreign, civilized, or uncivilized, savage or bar bar ions, male or female, white or black, franchised or disfranchised, naturalized or otherwise. No, there is positively nothing for any of the Wattses, either individually, severally jointly, now and forever, one and inseparable. The boy looked at the postmaster in astonishment, and said : 'Please look if there is anything for John Thomas Watts.' LewisMrff aiii Tyrone Railroad Time Table. LEAVK WESTWARD. 1 3 5 7 9 A. M. A. M.
