* A JEWELER’S _TMAMJMS. I Dm Mel nuataw+Pt——da Forty Sometimes I think that the educe, "all to not gold tint gUtten, " owxla to bo re constructed by people in our Une of bud- am and made to read, “ail gold dose not glitter," remarked one of the leading manufacturing jewelers of Pittsburg to the writer. in proof of this Assertion he exhibited several pieces eg gold, as nearly pure os It can be, aug still be worked to good advantage. The material looked very much like old brass, and was so dingy and lustarless that none but an ex pert would have pronounced it gold. Two small straight pieces, in shape and sue very much like small horseshoe nails, were shown, and them, the jeweler said, would be transformed into toe main por tion of a finger ring, after being bent, shaped and properly joined together. piece designed to form the top of the ring inwhich the stone Is set, Is separate. It of which it of rolled The manufacturer next unlocked his safe and brought forth some of its rare and costly treasures. There were dia monds, rubies, pearls, emeralds, sap phires, amethysts and scores of other precious stones, in infinite variety, from all .parts of the earth. • “We are obliged to keep a large stock on hand," said the jewoler.'mradi larger than the eastern manufacturers, who are able to send out and bay what they want at any time. A good deal of our work consists in the making of badges, pins, medals and other designs to crosr, tot short notice, and a large assortment of precloua atones is therefore indispensable, we have diamonds of every rise, ranging . from large and perfect stones several carats in weight and worth hundreds of dollars, down to the merest speck, cost ing' less than half a dollar. Tes, you can buy a genuine diamond for 40 cents, but it won’t beluga enough to be remarks-. Wy ooosptouoos. Pearls, too, we bam in great numbers, some larger, than pea* and others smaller than r°nh«y/i«. The greater part of those g-uns are cut and polished abroad. Even the California pearl, fished from iho ocean by divers the iooest, goes abroad to toe hands of German lapidaries, and to tothiscountr then brought back to this country to be set in jewelry. The greater number of pearls found are imperfect, and all such have to bo cut, majdng what are known as half pearls. “We carry, also, a large stock of imi tation stones. Every real gem is imi tated, and the more precious the stone toe greater will bo tho number of imita tions. Many of too imitations are so per fect that only experts can distinguish them from too genuine. All stones for settings ate bought by us, cut and pol- iahedand ready for use. They are aU graded according to the French measuro- .ment, and the peohagee containing them marked with toe exact size of each piece in millimetres. Take this line of turquois, for instance, and you will ob- ) that each has too same pattern run ning through all the different Fashion rules in jewelry, as in every thing else. A 6tono at one time very popular ,• in rings may go out of style en tirely jn a few years. Hence, unless wo Into the utmost care, we ore liable to have an accumulation of costly material on our hands, with no chance of getting brings it rid of it until fashion’s caprice brings into favor again.’’, For weighing diamonds and other precious stones a very delicate instru' ment, known as the diamond scale, is used. It consists of balances, and is so delicate that it will turn when a weight equal to one sixty-fourth part of a carat is placed upon it The smaller weights used oh toe scales are of aluminum, toe lightest metal known, and a piece one shri^-fourth of a carat in weight is but a j filmy scale that jibe breath would move.—E. W. Bartlett in Pittsburg Bis- Hie Nuisance of Gab. A prater is a common nuisance, and as great a grievance to those that come near him os a powtercr is to his neighbors. His discourse is' like the braying of a mortar, toe more impertinent the. more voluble and loud, as a pestle makes more noise when it is rung on the sides of a mortar, than when it stamps downright, and bits upon toe business. A dog that opens upon a wrong scent Will do it oftener than one that never opens but upon a right He is as long winded as a ventiduct that fills as fast as it empties; ora trade wind; that blows one way for half a year together, and another as «if it drew in its b: i ita breath for six months, «md blew it out again for six more. He lias no mercy on any man’s ears or pa tience that he can get within his sphere of activity, but tortures him, as they cor rect boys in Scotland, by stretching their lungs without remorse. He is like an earwig; when ho gets within a man’s ear, he is not easily to be got out again. He fe a siren to himtolf, and has noway to shipwreck but by having his 1 instead of his ears.
