Mr, kStreeter of London, the emi nent jeweler,in a recent lecture be fore ;i select audience, gave some interesting particulars regarding rubies. 1 lie stone is found in great est perfection in Upper Burinah— the country whence King Thebaw WAS expelled some three years ago. There is a place called the Yalley of Kubie—a valley in which sap phit- are also found—situated at an < ‘vation of some 4,500 feet above the level of the sea, amid a mi :re of mountainous spurs about eight v miles due north of the cap ital. Vine. lay. The valley is ex ceefii and ii nil to appr >ach, in consequence of the peculiarly' swanij y • ud malarious character of the jungle, lying between it and the capital, To approach if a circuit of some two hun dred miles roust be made; and ~ 'a lofthisi; wver mountain pass os and through swampy ground.

Tim other two got away. Badly in Debt. The thirteen Southern states,in cluding Kentucky and Missouri, have funded debts aggregating $95,858,043, besides an unfunded debt amounting to $20,000,000 more. Of fhe southern stales. Ken tuckv alone has a sinking fund, and in her case it Nearly covers the small debt of (lie stale, Three quarters of the debt of Texas and about the whole of the debt of Mis sissippi’s are due to the school funds of those states, so that the debt is insignificant in each case. In round figures, $ 119.000,000 is the aggregate of the debts of the southern states, including the un funded debt. The remaining twen ty-five states, comprising all those ot the North, and Northwest and the Pacific slope, owe less than $45,000,000, funded and unfunded, if the amounts in the several sink ing funds are subtracted from the nominal aggregate. It appears that ten Southern states are loaded with more than two-thirds of all [he stale debts of [lie Union. The Laughing Plant. Palgrave,in his work on Central and Eastern Arabia, mentions a plant whose seeds produce effects analogous to those of laughing gas. The plant is a native of Arabia. A dwarf variety is iound at K.-:sum, and another variety at Oman, which attains a 1- fight of from three to four feet, with woody stems, widespreading brandies, and light green foliage.
