A COSTLY LUXURY.
The readers, generally, of the Democrat,
may bo somewhat startled when they are in
formed that there is now in existence, in Bre
men, Germany, a luxury, the price of a bottle
of which is estimated to be over two millions
of dollars! Such however, is the fact At
the entertainment given by the king of Wur
temburg to the Emperors of Russia and Franco,
at their late meeting in his dominions, some
of this wine was nsed—the entertainment thus
rivaling in costliness the famous Feast of
Pearls. We are indebted to a friend for the
following translation from the Courrier det
Etatt Unit, describing the wine:
Wine at $2,000,000 per Bottle.— Among
the numerous varieties of rich German luxury
which the table of the King of Wurtemburg
'contained on the occasion of the meeting of
W two Imperial hosts, might be seen the cel
ebrated wine called Rosenwein, of which the
free city o( Bremen is so justly proud. The
Ifiurgoraasters only, of the city, as is well
known, are permitted to take a few bottles for
Ihctr own use, or to send them as presents to
sovereigns and reigning princes.
The history of this wine, each bottle of
which is valued at X 1,000,000 francs, possesses
all the marvellousness of a legend, and in Ger
many no one for a moment doubts theaulhen
ticity, or questions in the least the facts or sta
tistics on which this high valuation is based. ;
Wo give the curious history below:
The wine-vaults of Bremen are the most an
cient of all the vaults of Germany. They are
situated beneath the Hotel deVille; one of,
the lesser vaults, or niches, is called the ■
“ Rose,'" because a has relief in bronze, repre-!
denting roses, serves to ornament it, and give
it a distinctive mark. It contains the famous
wine called “ Rosenwein,” which is now near
ly two and a-hulf centuries old. In 1021,
there was deposited in this vault six large ves
sels of Rhenish wine, culled “ Johannisberger ”
(from the ancient Abbey of Schloss Johannis
berger, which now belongs to the Metternich
family,) and also the same quantity of lloc
heimer wine. The adjacent parts of the vaults
contain wine of the same description, not less
precious, although not quite so old, contained
in twelve large vessels, each of which bears
the name of one of the twelve Apostles, and
that called Judas, notwithstanding the oppro
brium attached to its name, is even more
highly esteemed than the others. In other j
parts of the vault are different kinds of wine, j
of more recent date. As fast as a few bottles
«f Rosenwein are used, they are replaced by
the wine of the twelve Apostles, and this again
by a wine less old, and so on; so that the sa
cred vessels containing the Rosenwein, are |
never emptied.
A bottle of Rosenwein is valued at over two j
millions of rix dollars (a rix dollar is worth four
/francs —about seventy-five cents,) by the fol
lowing calculation; A large vessel of wine,
-containing 5 oxhoft, (204 bottles,) would have
cost, in 1G24, five hundred rix dollars; count
ing the expense of keeping the vault in order,
etc., the contributions, the interest and com-:
pound interest, and this again compounded,
tone oxhoft would now be worth 555,057,040
■rix dollars, and consequently one bottle would
cost 2,723,840 rix dollars; one glassful, or the j
eighth part of a bottle, 340,470 rix dollars, |
.(about 1,301,304 francs per glass;) anil, in line,
.one drop, counting 1000 to the glass, costs
-540 rix dollars, or about 2302 francs.
A citizen of Bremen bas the right to obtain
« bottle when ho is visited by some distin
guished guest whose name is renowned in
Germany or in Europe. The city of Bremen '
.occasionally sent a bottle of Rosenwein to
-Goethe on his birth day.
During the French occupation, some gener
als of the Empire made way with a considera
ble quantity of this precious liquor, and the
•citizens of Bremen think that their city has
paid, in this manner, to France, a greater con
tribution than all the cities of Germany to
gether.
An Honest Banker. —John Schmidt is a
.German banker in Louisville. He suffered a
run, was obliged to suspend, but did not close
fete doors. He simply stuck up a notice in
high Dutch that he was going to have some
money pretty soon. Two days after, he took
down the notice, and put up another, stating !
that he had $15,000 on hand. There was
another run, and the $15,000 was soon gone.
John put up the old notice again, and next
day was again in funds, when, in accordance
with his old plan, he changed the notice. At
last accounts, there was no run on John, and
his depositors had all come back to him. That
■was straightforward Dutch pluck and honesty.
A Masonic Statu*. — The stalne of Wash
ington in the dress of a Freemason, now under
the chisel of Powers the artist, in Florence,
was ordered by Fredericksburg Lodge, No. 4,

HORNITOS, MARIPOSA COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 10, 1857.
Theatrical Sketches. —Mr. Davenport—*
the “ Ned Davenport” of the Bowery boys—be
fore. sailing for Europe, and while attached to
the Bowery Theatre, was of the lean and hun
gry kind. In fact, he was extremely lean, tall
as a May-pole, and slender enough to crawl
through a greased flute—to use a Yankee ism.
Somebody, “ up ” for Shylock, one night,
was suddenly “ indisposed,” or, more proba
bly, quite stupefied from the effects of the
deadly poisons retailed in the numerous grog
geries that really swarm near the Gotham
play-houses. Well, Mr. Davenport—a gentle
man who has reached a most honorable posi
tion in his profession by sobriety and talent—
was substituted for the indisposed Shylock,
and the play went on.
In the trial scene, Mr. Davenport really
“ took down the house” by his vehemence,
and his ferocious, lean and hungry aspirations
for the pound of flesh ! One of the b’hoys, so
identical with the Bowery pit, got quite worked
up; he twisted and squirmed, chewed his cud,
stroked his “soap-lock,” but, finally, wrought
up to great presence of mind —our lean Shy
lock still calling for his pound of flesh—roars
out:
“S’ay, look a’ here—why don’t yer give
skinny de meat, don’t yer sec he wants it,
s-a-y 1”
The “ piece” went off with a perfect rush.
Among the roads to marriage, the profes
sion of “ artiste dramatique” has never passed
for the most direct. Nevertheless, M’lle X—,
says the Paris Figaro , of one of the boulevard
theatres, lately refused a certain roll because
it interfered with her prospects of “establish
ing herself.” “ You believe,” she remarked to
the manager, that 1 am at your theatre simply
to play ? Grave mistake, sir. The theatre is
for me a means, not an end. My idea is a
good and solid marriage. For that reason, I
insist upon performing only those characters
which an observer could reasonably desire to
espouse. I wish to be the young girl that Mr.
Arthur marries at the fall of the curtain, and
1 wish to be ornamented by such virtues and
charms that the spectator in his orchestra stall
will inwardly exclaim, “What a happy man
this Mr. Arthur!” Because, although from
that exclamation, to imitate Mr. Arthur is a
long step, still it is not an impossible one-
Perhaps you may not desire to become my
matrimonial agent. If so, let us destroy
my engagement, and make another. You
will allow me to continue in your theatre,
ar.d I will pay you. You will furnish me with
a pretty little repertory sauce a la conjugal,
very appetizing and very tempting. What
salary, w’ould you want for that ?”
How the Devil Lost. — A young man who
ardently desired wealth, was visited by his Sa
tanic majesty, who tempted him to promise
his soul for eternity, if he could be supplied in
this world with all the money ho could use.
Thu bargain was concluded —the devil to sup
ply the money, and at last have the soul, unless
the man could spend more money than the
devil could furnish. The man married—was
extravagant in his living—built palaces—spec
ulated wildly—lost and gave away fortunes,
and yet his coffers were always full. He
turned politician, and bribed his way to power
and fame, without reducing the “ pile” of gold.
He became a fillibuster, and fitted out ships
and armies, but his banker honored all his
drafts. He went to the “Springs” to live,
and paid the usual rates of interest for all the
money he could borrow; but though the devil
made WTy faces when he came to pay the bills,
yet they were all paid. One expedient after
another failed. The devil counted the lime—
only two years that he must wait for the soul
—and mocked the efforts of the despairing
man. One more trial was resolved upon—the
man started a newspaper. The devil growled
at the end of the first quarter, was savage in
six months, melancholy in nine, and “ dead
broke at the end of the year. So the news
paper went down, but the soul was saved.
Well Done. — A gentleman recently left
his homo in Attapulgus, Georgia, placing a
large sum of money in his wife’s charge. To
wards evening, two negroes entered the house
and demanded of the lady the money, or they
would take her life. Being a woman of great
coolness, she saw at once it would be useless
for her to attempt to evade the demand, so
she produced the money and gave it to them.
The negroes then remarked that as supper
was nearly ready, they would stay and eat
with her; and she told them to be sealed un
til she got it ready. She had a vial of strych
nine in the cupboard, and when supper was
ready, and the robbers seated, she managed,
in sweetening their coffee, to put a dose of the
poison in each of their cups. They drank,
and in a few moments were dead. The neigh
bors were called in, and the negroes discovered
to bo white men in disguise—near neighbors
and friends of her husband, who had known
of his receiving the money, and of his absence.
Wntt a Job! —Jefferson swore “eternal
enmity to everything that fetters the mind ol
man.” Did he live now, what a frightful host
of enemies he would have to fight against!
M’li.e Rachel. —The latest Parisian jour
nals state that the malady with which this
artiste is afflicted, leaves no hope for her ad
mirers.
“THE UNION AND ITS GOVERNMENT."
Sharp Siiootino. —Mr. Bass is a man of
great celebrity in England. Whilst practicing
with other members of the Burton-on-Trcnt
Rifle Club, says an exchange, he was one day
joined by a bevy of ladies, one of whom re
quested to see a specimen of Mr. Bass’ shoot
ing. A two inch bull’s-eye being placed, four
successive shots were fired at 110 yards.—
Every shot wont through the same hole, a little
to the left of the centre without breaking the
outer edge of the paper. On another occasion,
when lunch had been discussed on the banks
of the river Trent, and the black bottles looked
as if their occupation was gone, employment
was found for them. A wager was laid that
the bottles should be recorked, and thrown
into the river, seventy yards from the shooter
(Mr. Bass), and that, whilst floating, the cork
of each of the six bottles should bo hit to win.
If the body of the bottle was struck, to lose.
Every cork was struck. The weapon in this
case was a pistol of peculiar construction, with
a ten-inch rifle barrel. The staple fixed in the
stern of a flat-hottomed fishing boat was
struck, the first shot, for a wager, at 300
yards. A swan was shot through the head at
170 yards. A duck feeding upon a weir nt
820 yards, and a hare at 280 yards, were both
shot dead. A hoy was seen angling upwards
of 90 yards from the bridge, on which Mr.
Bass was standing, with not less than two
score lookers-on. A bet was made that Mr. B.
would break through the upper part of the
fine rod the boy was using, the first shot The
weapon in this case was the pistol before men
tioned. The shot was made; the line, with
the whalebone mounting, fell from the rod.—
The boy stood aghast. The wager was won,
and handed over to the little fisherman.
Bone or ms Bonk and Blood onus Blood.
A woman’s life was curiously preserved by
her husband in Staffordshire, lately, by the
process of transfusion. She was at the point
of death, when, as a last resource, a vein was
opened in her arm, and one in the arm of her
husband, and as the blood flowed from the
latter, it was transmitted, by suitable appara
tus, to the veins of the wife. After seventeen
ounces had been thus injected, the pulse be
came perceptible and the colorless lips red
dened, the glassy eye brightened, and she
thankfully said, “I am better.” The case has
progressed very favorably, and the woman is
recovering.
Sknsiblk. —Emerson says that a great man
is always willing to be little. While he sits on
the cushion of advantages, he goes to sleep.
When he is pushed, tormented, defeated, he
has a chance to learn something; he has been
put on his wits, on his manhood; he has
gained facts; learned his ignorance ; is cured
of the insanity of conceit; has got moderation
and real skill. The wise man always throws
himself on the side of his assailants. It is
more to his interest than it is theirs to find his
weak point. The wound cicatrizes and falls
off from him like a dead skin, and when they
would triumph, lo! he has passed on, invul
nerable.
Tmk “Vestal Priestess.” —Dion Bourci
cault, in several of his plays, (in “The Life of
an Actress,” especially,) holds up the stage as
a platform of virtue, and Rachel as the vestal
priestess. And yet a recent European news
paper paragraph informs us that this pure, un
married lady, being about to die, is providing
for her children. There are two, Alexander
and Gabriel; the first a legitimized son of
Count Walewski, French Minister of Foreign
Affairs, the other of loss noble origin.
Smart. —The Marysville Exprenn tells of a
man writing a communication against private
hanking, and advising all to do as he had done,
viz ; w ithdraw their money, and keep it them
selves. Next morning, a genteel individual en
tered the editor’s sanctum, and indignantly in
quired for the author’s name, which was fur
nished him. On the succeeding day, the cor
respondent met the editor, and with a chap
fallen countenance informed him that all his
money had been stolen the night previous.
Quakeress, jealous of her husband,
watched his movements, and one morning ac
tually discovered the truant kissing and hug
ging the servant girl. Broadbrim was not
long in discovering the,face of his w’ife, as she
peeped through the half-open door, and rising
with all the coolness of a general, thus ad
dressed her: “ Betty, thee had better quit
peeping, or thee will cause a disturbance in
the family.”
Death op Gen. Boone. —W r e have received
the painful intelligence of the death of Gen.
Boone, which event took place at his residence
in Tishomingo county, Miss., on the 17th Sept.
He was a regular descendant of the distin
guished Gen. Daniel Boone, and was said to re
semble him, not only in personal appearance
but also in his qualities of head and heart.
Affrays. —On the 21st October, in Mem
phis, Tenn. A man named Keene was killed
by Dr. F. Gibbes, and another named Puckett
was shot accidentally by officer Butler, who
fired at a fellow' named Lew is. The latter had
attacked Puckett, when Butler interfered. In
the other affray, Dr. J. J. Hooks was shot and
dangerously wounded by Mr. Cockrell.
