Prices of Pearls.
Now York Hun.
"Although n pearl weighing ono grain
easy to upend a largo amount of inonc )
for pearl jewelry. There is now in this
city a pearl necklace worth $100,000
I have soon another worth $23,000 , and
ono was recently sold for $30,000. These
largo prices are caused by the dilliculty
of obtaining particular sizes and colurs
that may bo wanted. The most oxpon
eivo collection of pearls on record is that
owned by the Countess of Dudley in
England , which is far moro valuable
than the celebrated pearls belonging to
queen. The countosa has a coronet of
pearls. The top is composed of pear-
shaped pearls. There is a very largo one
in the centre , and the others are graduated
uatod in aizo down ta the smallest. Ii
order to got these poar-sliapod pearls it
the requisite sizes and colors the jowelore
wore obliged to buy such an enormous
quantity of pearls that when the famous
nooklace was completed with earrings
bracelets , brooch and finger rings U
match , the iowolors had $300,000 wort !
of odd pearls leftl A pair of matchec
pear-shaped pearls weighing 110 grain
wasro-sontly sold in San Francisco fo
$0,000. I sold , ono pair of off cole
craggy and dbbous pearls for $350 , am
have ono pair worth $1,800.
> 'When the Princess Royal of Englam
uiarriod Frederick William of Prussia sh
received a necklace of thirty-two pearls
coating $93,000. In 1789 the Freno
government possessed twarls valued a
fe370,000. Twothat were pear-uhapoi
were valued at $55,800.
"Theblack pearls bring very highpiioe
c present , but genuine pearls may bq
lought that are white , pink or gray. The
> eculiar color which is called pearl is a
ort of transparent drab. There is at
irosent a creator demand for pearls , as
hero is , in fact , for all kinds of jewelry ,
lian has boon known for a long-timo.
'ho plontifullnoss ot imitations docs not
pooar to destroy the value of the genuine
rticlo. Some idea of the increased value
f pearls may bo gathered from two
atimatos made moro than 100 years
part. One was made in 1751 by David
ullries , of London , and the other in 18C7

"Can I have a few words with you , sir ? "
isked young Arthur Groggio , entering a
iohly carpeted office and addressing Col.
Bibley.
"I suppose you can , " the colonel re
plied , nervously tuining ou his revolving
ihnir and glancing at Arthur in a way so
devoid of interest that the yo'ung man in-
vardly wished ho had not sought an interview
torview with the crusty old follow.
" 1 will not detain you long , for I know
hat your time is well occupied "
"It was wall occupied"naid the colonel.
Whether or not it is well occupied "
"Your sarcasm , colonul , is lest on
me. You could no doubt spend your
: imn moro profitably than by talking to
" '
mo.
"No doubt , " the colonel assented ,
"i am glad to see , " said the young
man , bowing , "that there are subjects on
on which we agree , and since you have
unwittingly led mo , stop by step , to the
very threshold of the subjects in which
abavo all others I desire your occurrence
ronce , I will at once open the door ,
I think that I would make an admir
able Bcm-in-law. Do you uxroo witl
mol"
"I do , You would undoubtedly rnaki
a good son-in-law of a donkey. "
"Ah , I see. Then , pray , allow im
to a k your daughtor'a hand in inarri
ago. "
The colonel glared at the young mai
for a moment , and replied ; "If ini
pudenco woto wit , then I would re
gard you as capable ol taking care of
"
wife.
"And if arrogance were genorositj
then would I have had no hesitancy i
approaching you. "
"Ah , you are quite equal to an omei
gonoy. Do you love my daughter with n
truth and depth of aovotion which in
future shall over prevent any other love
from arising to the surface ; do you think
that in after years , when your ambition
has elevated you to the height of a
longed-for eminence , that your love
will bo strong enough to keep pace
with your advancement , and lift my
child stop by stop as you yourself are lift
ed ? "
" 1 do , " solemnly said the young man ,
inclining his head in reverence.
"My daughter is levin ; ; , but not am
bitious. In her lifo nfl'.iction will bo
everything. Will you over speak cross to
her ? "
"Never. "
"What assurance have I ? "
"Tin's uirl" and the young man drew a
bottle from hia side pocket.
"What have wo here ? Kentucky ? "
"Kentucky. "
"Ah , " said the colonel , as ho took the
bottle. "Hero's looking atyoul"
"Drink hearty , " the young man replied ,
and , taking the bottle , ho hold it up
and added : "Hero's to the hair off your
head. "
The marriage was solemnly celebrated ,
and the young man , who is iv homo doe
tor , has begun to ancond the ladder of
ambition.
