English Luxury.
Few persons are aware of the wealth
nnd splendor that surround tnanv of the
English nobles in their princely residences.
The following are specimens:
THE EAKL. OF SPENCER.
1 The Earl of Spencer's homestead,
about sixty miles from London, comprises
ten thousand acres, tastefully divided in
parks, meadows, pastures, woods and gar
dens. 11 is library, called the lines! private
library in the world, contains fifty thou
sand volumes. Extensive and elegant sta
bles, green houses and conservatories,
game-keeper's houses, dairy houses, dog
kennels, porter's lodge, and farm houses
without number, go to complete the estab
lishment. Hundreds of sheep and cattle
graze in the parks about the house.'
THE DL'KE OF RICHMOND.
The Duke of Richmond's home farm,
at Green wood, sixty miles front London,
consists of twenty-three thousand acres, or
over sixty-five square miles. And this is
in crowded England, which has a popula
tion of sixteen millions, and an area of
fifty thousand square miles, or just thirty
two millions of acres, giving, were the
land divided* but two acres to-each inhabi
tant. The residence of the Duke is a
perfect palace. One extensive hall is cov
ered with yellow silk, and pictures in the
richest and most costlV tapestry. The
dishes and plates upon the table are nfl of
porcelain, silver and gold. Twenty-five
race horses stand in the stable, each being
assigned to the care of a special groom.
A grotto near the house, the ladies spent
six years in adorning. An aviary is sup
plied with almost every variety of elegant
birds. Large herds of cattle, sheep and
deer, are spread over the immense lawns.'
THE DI KE OF DEVONSHIRE.
4 The Duke of Devonshire's palace, at
Chatsworth, is said to excel in magnifi
cence any other in the kingdom. The in
come of the Duke is one million of dollars
a vear, and he is said to spend it all. In
the grounds about the house are kept four
hundred head of cattle, and four hundred
deer. The kitchen garden contains twelve
acres, and is filled with almost every spe
cies of fruit and vegetables. A vast arbo
elum, connected with the establishment, is
designed to contain a sample of every tree
that grows. There is also a glass conserv
atory, three hundred and eighty-seven feet
in length, one hundred and twelve in breadth,
sixty-seven in height, covered by seventy
six thousand square feet ol glass, and
warmed by seven miles of pipe conveying
hot water. One plant was obtained trom
India by a special messenger, and is valued
at ten thousand dollars. One of the foun
tains near the house plays two hundred
and seventy-six feet high—said to be the
highest jet in the world. Chatsworth con
tains thirty-five hundred acres ; but the
Duke owns ninety-six thousand acres in
Derbyshire. Within, the entire is one
vast scene of painting, sculpture, and ma
sonic work, carved wainscoting, and all
the elegancies and luxuries within the
reach of almost boundless wealth and
highly refined taste.'
A LARGE GOLD STORY. —A correspon
dent ot the Newport News, writing irom
Nan Francisco, relates the following inci
dent: Two common looking persons en
tered the hotel this morning, just from the
/nines —a man and wife. The male indi
vidual looked for all the world like a day
laborer, and the female bore a close resem
blance to an Irish scullion. She wore
coarse, vulgar brogaris, and to her girdle
was attached a gold watch and chain, val
ued at least at two hundred dollars. The
husband left the hotel lor half an hour, and
returned with a receipt lor one hundred
and fifteen thousand dollars, the value of
the dust which lie had just consigned for
transportation to New York. This sum
has been gained by digging. The hus
band dug while the wife washed, assisted
bv her little son, aged about ten years.
A Horse Shoe that is put on without
nails, lias been invented bv Heir Dries

IFo.m th* Daily Panama n..br> <f the 13th ull j
The Ten-fold PuiiDhment.
Having frequently heard that in Catho
i lie countries, there was a prevalent custom
j ol sacrificing Judas Jscariat in effigy, in
many different ways, we had always
doubted it until our residence in Panama.
Since coming here, however, we have
seen so many singular and ionnal demon
strations and ceremonies, that we were
prepared to believe much hitherto discred
ited bv us. Sunday night was the time
named to us as that ol the ceremonial
punishment of the traitor Judos —and we
endeavored to find some evidences of
preparation. By mere accident, when
about to give up the search, we espied the
representative of a man, a sniffed image
dangling from a rope suspended high in
the air. We enquired for what it was de
signed. and they answered, 'Judas !'—and
that he was ♦to he burnt presently.' Not
long alter, hearing shouts of derision and
the most hitter vituperation, we turned our
attention to the image, and saw a slow
match applied to the elugy. It com
menced burning very rapidly, emitting
great volumes of flame, at all points, and
by frequent explosions, giving evidence of
being well charged with a variety of com
; hustibles. The expressions of satisfac
tion and contempt for the representation
! of the wretched, miserable traitor, were
frequent and vehement on the part of the
: bystanders, and indeed all who could see
I the burning, even to a considerable dist
ance. Verilv, we have never seen so
much manifestation ol stronger feeling of
execration toward an efiigy It appeared,
singular, indeed, to one \\ ho could not
but look upon it as farcical in tiie extreme
—and li was only interesting to us us
another-evidence of the almost limitless pow
whieh the Church of Rome must have
held over its followers, for so many cen
turies.
A New St\le of Watches has been re
cently imported into this country f rom Ge
neva, Switzerland. They are so con
structed as to be wound up, and the hands
' moved backward and forward, without the
aid of a kev, and without opening, 'i his
prevents the dust from settling upon tin
works, or the oil from evaporating, and
renders them less liable to get out oi' order
than ordinary watches—at the same time
the construction is so simple that anv
watchmaker can set them in order without
difficulty.
*
SMAI.I. NOTE LAW. — KvIJ iter. — In
the Court of Common Fleas of Phila
delphia county, it has been decided that
the prosecutor under the small note lav. is
not a legal witness against the defendant,
being interested to one half the amount of
the penalty. 'The Judge held tliat the
law having provided the action of debt as
the form of remedy, it embraced the in
cidents of such action, in respect to the
admission of evidence. This will pre
vent suits for the penalty, where no one
is- present at the passing of the notes ex
cept the person prosecuting.
A man and his wife were committed to
the jail of Westmoreland county, on a
charge of having murdered one of their
children. The child was missed—the pa
rents evinced but little concern about it.
The neighbors searched for and found it
about a mile from the house, behind some
rocks. The Argus says, the wretched pa
rent* leave in their miserable hovel in the
mountains, seven small children, destitute
of the comforts of Jtfe. and two of them
very sick.
The 1 . S. Senate have decided to date
all acts, granting pensions, back te the
time of the presentation ot the papers,
provided they are favorably reported i.pon
to Congress.

Protection from Lightning.
THE subscribers are now manufacturing in
Lewistown and Bellefonte their celebrated
PATENT LIGHTNING RODS, warranted su
perior to any in use. These spiral twisted car
; bonised Rods are light half inch in ten feet
; lengths, perfectly screwed together, with brass
! sockets, and put up through glass insulators in a
most substantial manner—the whole mounted
j with a solid silver plated copper point, that will re
| main bright a* long as the Rod stands. In this
connection we would simply remark that a rusty
j steel or iron point can be of no use on a Light
ning Rod, for the plain reason that they answer j
| no end that would not be accomplished simply j
by sharpening li.e end of the Rod. One of ih'e \
proprietors being himself a practical Chemist
and Electrician, would assuie the public that
these improved Rods are manufactured and put
up on scientific principles. We deem the iin- ;
port-ant fa"! that over six hundred thousand feet
of these celebrated R <is have been sold in one
I season, a sufficient recommendation; neverthe
less we have numerous certificates from promi
nent persons, speaking in the highest termsof
, their utility.
Our teams are traversing all parts of the coun
try with all the necessary apparatus for putting
i up Rods at once.
We can be seen at !L;,inker's Hotel, in Lew
