The English Crown Diamonds.
The English crown diamonds are valued
at 8,500,000. They are in a thick iron
chest, and are guarded by sentinels day
and night. There is a diadem of eighty
six diamonds of various sizes, in the iuW
die o which is the celebrated Kooh-i-neor
alone valued at $320,000; also a collar of
108 diamonds, in the centre of which is mi
emerals, said to be the purest and niot4 beau
tiful extant. A second diamond is a blend"
injf of diamonds and emeralds, In tbecen"
ter is the large Ksudsvasfy diamond, vnl"
ued at $000,000. It would be rated at a
higher sum were it not for a flight delect.
These, and many oiher valuables of the
kind belong to the Knglish crown. A por
tion are used by the princess of Wales on
special occasions; the Kaudavassy was tor
mely the eye of a one eyed Hindoo deity,
and has been but lately added to the colh-e-ion.

History of Perry County,
Circumstances beyond my control have delayed
the preparation and publication of the History oi
Perry County, Ohio, which I have for some time
had in contemplation.
The book -will be a large volume, of about six
hundred pages, veil bound and printed, and pub
lished by a regular book establishment, on good
paper, in good style, and in a workman-like man
ner. It will contain a history of the county by
townships, as far as practicable from the period of
the earliest white settlements, down to July 4th,
1377, the close of the Centennial year. The work
will give the names of the early pioneers, of each
township, as far as possible, introducing incidents
connected with the early settlements, and the
growth and progress of all parts of the county.
Also, as far as mav be obtainable, a separate nd
distinct account oi each town, old and new, in
cluding, of course, Overmyertown, Somerset,
Throuville, Rehoboth, Bristol, Kew Lexington,
Mount Hope, Crossenville, Wolf town, Haxville,

such drawback to stock breeding and bush life.
It cures every external trouble of horses, such

The Mexican Ilustang Unimeut is the quietest

ticularly valuable to Miners.
. It is the cheapest remedy in the world, for it
penetrates the muscle to tho bone, and a single
application. Is generally sufficient to cure.
Mexican Mostang Liniment Is put up In three
sizes of bottles, the larger ones being proportlon
afely much the cheapest. Sold everywhere.
The volume will rive a historr of the railroads of
the county, of the newspaper press, of the several
county seat struggles, of Ferry county in connec
tion with the war of 1812, the Mexican war, and
the war of 1861. Also, as far as information can be
procured, a separate and distinct account of each
Church society in the county.
As extra-historical, the book will contain a chap
ter upon the mineral and other wealth, and upon
the future prospects of the county.
Enough has been said to give an idea of the gen
eral scope and character of the proposed volume.
Of course, a local work can not be furnished at so
small a cost as one of a general nature. But the
price of the History of Perry County will be fixed
at So.00, which is not much in excess of general
historical works, of corresponding size ana nuisn.

The reputation it has attained, in
consequence of the marvellons cures it
has produced during the last half cen
tury, is a suthcient assurance to uie
public that it will continue o reiuir
the happiest results that can be desired.
In almost every section oi coumry
there are persons, publicly knovm, who
have been restored from alarming ami
even desperate diseases of the lunrs,
by its use. All who have tried It ac
knowledge its superiority ; and where
its virtues are known, no one hesitates
as to what medicine to employ to re
lieve the distress and sutTering peculiar
to pulmonary afTections. Cherry Pec
toral always affords instant relief, and
performs rapid cures of the milder va
rieties of bronchial disorder, aa well as
the more formidable diseases of the
lunjrs.
As a safeguard to children, amid
the distressing diseases which beset
the Throat and Chest of Childhood, it
is invaluable; for, by its timely use,
multitudes are rescued aud restored to
health.
This medicine gains friends at
every trial, as the cures it is constantly
producing are too remarkable to bo
forgotten. No family should be with
out it, and those who have once used
it never will.
Eminent Physicians throughout the
country prescribe it, and Clergymen
often recommend it from their knowl
edge of its effects.
