Many of the possrssors of the groato t
fortunes won in this country , says the
Ni-w York'Sun , have died within a coin-
par.itivoly few yours , and distributed
their wealth by will. Let us see how
they have done It.
( tcorirc Poabodv , who died in London
on the llh of Novombnr , 1800 , had not , it
is true , accumulated all hia vast property
in the United Slates , but he laid the
foundations of hH fortune here , where ho
started life iw a poor Massachusetts boy ,
and it was aftonviud greatly increased
by his American investments. Mr. Pen-
body had given away many millions
during his life , the sum of his moro con
spicuous benefactions reaching about
$7,000,000. Wlton ho died ho made be
quests to objects of public utility , but the
residue of his fortune was enough to en
rich his relatives with about $5,000,000.
Ilia greatest benefactions were
sj2r,00,000 , as a. fund for the building of
lodging houses for the London poor , and
$2,100,000 as a "southern educational
fund. " However great has been the sum
of the actual bonchls conferred by these
princely cifts , alter the lapse of nearly a
quarter of a century it is not too much to
say that it lias been far below the expec
tation of the philanthropist. The Lon
don poor are no better housed than they
were in his day. and the Peabody lodg
ing houses are oiuj object of much criti
cism. Now the cry is that the govern
ment itself must do the work of improve
ment , for all Hngland has lately been
aroused by descriptions of the awful
misery of the poor crowded in London
hovels. In spite of his gift for the benefit
of southern education in 1800 , congress
in 188ii has had before it a bill to distrib
ute many millions of the public- money
for the same purpose. Mr. Peabody's
benefaction was only n drop in the
bucket
John Jacob Astor died on the 29th of
March , 1818 , at the age of eighty-live ,
leaving his estate , with the exception of
a bequest of * 100,000 for the Astor Library
and borne minor legacies , to his son ,
William H. Astor , who died on the 24th
of November , 1875 , leaving his o state to
his sons , less a legacy of about 4250.000
to the Astor Library. The vast Astor
estate , the greatest landed estate in
America , has thus como down sub
stantially intact from its founder , and
tlio onlv conspicuous benefaction of the
family'has boon the establishment and
enrichment of the splendid library which
bears its name. But the Astors. all the
same , have been and are public bene
factors. In founding the library the
lirst creator of the fortune did an in
estimable service to society , for the
Astor library is one of the choicest and
most useful collections of books in the
United States , and supplies a want which
all students know to bo imperative. Be
sides that , this family has administered
its vast landed possessions in Now York
with a wise method which has greatly
served the interests of the public.
They have expended their wealth
in building up the city , and
tire known and honored through
out its limits as the justcst of
landlords. They have also made many
benefactions for public objects which
have been the moro praiseworthy because
they wcro unostentatiously and most in
telligently bestowed. Of all American
estates of magnitude the best preserved
has been that of the Asters.
The late Johns Hopkins died at Balti
more , December 34 , 187IJ , at the age of
seventy-eight years. Ho was one of the
most penurious and miserly of men , but
be surpassed oven Mr. Tilden in the mag
nificence of his benefactions. He gave
to the foundation of the Johns Hopkins
university and the Johns Hopkins hos
pital , in all , some eight millions of money ,
and they are two ot tno greatest monuments
ments that any citizen over raised to his
own memory. If lie gave twice as much
to the public welfare as Mr. Tildon did ,
it was simply because lie happened to
have twice as much. Besides , his eight
millions atoned for and in a certain do-
grcejustilied his personal earnerwhereas
Mr. Tilden's four were used to express
the lilting and modo.st climax of a life of
devotion and unselfish interests' . Like
Mr. Tilden , Mr. Johns Hopkins wns a
bachelor.
A. T. Stewart died in Now York on the
10th of April , 1870 , leaving a widow , but
no children. Ho was reputed to bo ono
of the three richest men in the United
States , the others being Commodore Van-
bcrbilt and John Jacob Astor , the
younger , who had n few weeks before
Mr. btowart'p death inherited the bulk of
the Astor csttito. Mr. Stewart had made
bis great fortune in this country , and because -
cause of his lack of children there was
much curiosity as to tlio will of the sa
gacious merchant. Before his death ho
had started two vast entornrises for the
bunelit of the public , or rather , for the
good ot special objects of his considera
tion. These were Harden City , on Long
Island , to provide homos for industrious
mechanics and other deserving persons
of modest means , and a home for working
girls on Park avenue in this city. Gar
den City is now a rather fashionable cen
ter , being frequented by the golden
voutli who hunt the anise-seed bag.
The working women's homo has
been trauatormcd into a ho
tel in which no working girl
can nll'onl to live unless she goes there as
n servant. A grand cathedral has been
erected at Garden City in memory of the
dead man , but the crypt provided for the
reception of his body is vacant , for his
corpse was stolen from St. Mark's church
yard , and no one knows where it has
crumbled to dust. By his will , the vast
estate of Mr. Stuwart , witli the exception
of legacies of 1,000,000 to Judge Hilton ,
one of his executors , and $325,000 to his
employes , was left to his wife. After his
decease , first his wholesale business was
substantially closed up by its removal
from the warehouse at the corner of
Chambers street and Broadway , which
was the pride and tlio wonder of old Now
York , and then his famoui retail liouso
pa.ssed into other hands. It is supposed ,
too , that his estate in the possession of his
wife has greatly diminished , for his vast
manufacturing interests seem to have
been sold at a sacrifice. At any rate , tlio
Stewart estate , once so provocative of
envy and astonishment , has cea.sed to
da/,7.1o the publio witli its granilcur ,
James Liok , who had worked himself
up fiom poverty to affluence , died at San
L'rauoisco. October 1 , 1870. Two years
before hu hud placed all his property In
the hands of trustees for various public
purposes , but subsequently ho revised
that disposition , reserving to himself
JOOO.OOO , and giving to his son $150.000 ,
and sums varying from $2,000 to $5,000 to
his relatives. Hi * most conspicuous gifts
wcro $700,000 for an observatory with the
most powerful telescope ever made ,
9540,000 for a California school of mo-
ohamcal arts , $150,000 for free publio
butliB in San l-'rancisco , $00,000 for n
montinutnt to Francis bcott ICoy , the
author of the "Ktar Spangled Banner , "
and f 100.000 for a group of bronze stat
uary in ban Francisco , reurosenting the
history of California. Ills benefactions
amounted to about $3,000,000.
CoruoliiiD Vauderbilt died at New York
on thojlth of January , 1877 , at the ago
of eighty-threo yoacs , leaving nn estate
which was estimated awfrom sixty to ono
hundred millions , all of which sunii ex
cept about fifteen' Millions , was oc-
queatltod to his fsonVVIlliam II. Vtinder-
bill , and a mpmortililo find most deplor
able contest occurred ever his will , Dur
ing bis life ho had givrn toward n million
to found Vanderbilt university at Nash
ville , Tenn. , a now prosperous and us < v
ful institution , whiuhMIS further and
btindsomely ondowitd by hisson William.
William It VandpTbilt died in this city
on the Sth of December of last year at the
ago of sixty-four , and about eight years
after the death of his father hail put him
in possession of o vast an estate. Hut
his life was kept iti turmoil for the lirst
year or two by the bitter and mortifying
contest over the testament of the old
commodore , so tlmt the period during
which lie enjoyed his wealth was quite
short. Yet he was commonly reported to
have doubled his inheritance , and that in-
eroaseil estate , with the c\ception of l > er-
haps a million for charities , lie divided
nmong his widow and eight children , his
two oldest sons receiving the lion's
Hharo. Hoforo his death i\Fr. \ Vanderbilt
had given largo sums to Vanderbilt uni
versity , and find bountifully contributed
to the College of Phvsielaus and .Sur
geons , n medical school of this i-itywhich
lias been further bcnolitcd by bis lioirn ,
who also have undertaken the foundation
of ji handsome club house for their em
ployes.
James honor died In Now York on
1'cbruary 18 , 1880 , at winch time lie was
held to bo ono of the live wealthiest men
in the city Previous to his death he had
founded and endowed the Presbyterian
hospital at Seventieth and Sevenly-lirst
streets , expending about n million dollars
lars , llu spout over half n million in
building the Lenox library , and subse
quently stocked It with hid remarkable
collection of books and works of art ; but
as yet the library has been of little use to
public , for admission to it is dlfllcull. and
students oven do not take full advantage
of the boons. It i.s a most imposing
building architecturally , it is beautifully
situated , many rare editions are on its
shelves , and it contains pictures and
sculptures of great beauty , but they are
still almost as much locked up , so far as
the people are concerned , as if" they had
been buried in Mr. Lenox's tomb.
\V'o must not omit from this list Girard
of Philadelphia , who left more than
$9,000,000 , together with a plot of ground ,
to found Uininl college in that city ; Ste
vens of llobokon , who bequeatncd
$1,000,000 to complete the Stevens bat
tery , and $1,000,000 for the Stevens insti
tute at Ilobokcn ; Roosevelt of New York ,
who left about n million to found tlio
hospital that bears his name ; and Wil
liam W. Corcoran of Washington , who
has given about $2,000,000 during his
life to establish an art gallery and a
homo for decayed gentlewomen there.
Of other rich men who have died ot re
cent years are the Goclct. brothers , great
landlords , but their property has all gene
to their natural heirs and their relatives
who arc now among the richest people in
New York.
Samuel J. Tildcnvlio , died on the 4th
of this month , left about fi.OOO.OOO , r.ll of
which , except about $1,000,000 , goes to
public objects a inagnificent bequest ,
liut his will scorns tq. transfer trom him
self to his executors the responsibility
for devising the means through which
the benefaction shall go. They have
pretty full discretion , and the good the
public will derive 'from ' tlio liberality
of the great statesmen will Iarg3lv de
pend on the wisdom.of these three men.
The main intention . 'of the testator , to
provide a grand frco library for New
York , was worthy of the sagacity so con
spicuously manifested in the accumula
tion of his vast fortxmo , but even with re
spect to such an institution the executors
are allowed full discretion and power ot
decision. They are public-spirited men ,
and they know the wishes of tlio de
ceased. Therefore'wo nan expect from
them that his munificence will be so ad
ministered as to best serve the interests-
of the people among whom ho was an
honored figure.

Cornlilll Maga/.lnc : Whore HIP dia-
luoiul coino * from noboily knows. You
can no more predict tht ovistonro of diamonds
mends tlinn you can the o\istonco of
genius , though , to bo sure nil diamond-
llclds to n certain extent resemble e-ieli
other , and sill , borrowing us they do their
light from the sun , are found only in
warm olimatos. Nor can you tell where

Tlio ancients were us sure no diamonds
could bo burnt as they were that none
could bo broken. It wns not till UiO ! ) Unit
Do Hoot suspected its inflammability , nor
till 1073 that it was actually burnt. In
1C9I , Avornri , and Targlonl , of Cimonto ,
nl the instigation ot Cosmo HI , the grand
iluko of Florence , burnt , the dinmoiul in
the focus of concentrated sunrays , where
it was seen tocrack.coruseatc , and dually
disappear. They had tried to learn the
"
secret of its com"poltlon , and , like a true
unirtyr , it liad perished unconfossod ; it
had burnt itself out like : i sun. Forty-
four years after the dcatli of Newton
( who guessed the diamond to bo homo
' 'unctuous body ooagiilaler , " perhaps tlio
Vegetable secretion of the Human tree ,
bettor to shake than the Pagoda ) , a mag-
nilieent diamond was burnt , on July 20 ,
1771 , in tiio laboratory ofM.Macquer.and
in the presence , among others , of a well
known Parisian jeweler , M. Le Hlnnc ,
who , notwithstanding what ho had just
seen , stood forward mid declared the diamond
mend to bo indestructible in the furnace.
for I hat ho had himself often subjected
stones to intense heat to rid them of
blemishes , and that they had never suf
fered the slightest injury in the process.
Thereupon the two chemists , IJ'Arcel
and Houellc , demanded tlio experiment
should lo made before them on the spot ,
with the result that poor La Hhuic found
himself , after three hours trial in the
crucible , at the temperature that melts
silver , minus onoof the most precious of
his stock in trade.
No ! If you doubt yonr diamond , do not
cither try to burn it or to break it. You
mav test it with bluck mastic , to which ,
if it bo real , it will adhere closely. You
may even , if your ears bo sharp , rub two
together , and mark the inucscrioablc
grating , croaking sound tlicv give out ; so

and , lastly , you mav try its refractive
power , for , unlike all other crystals , the
diamond hasnodoublo'rofraction that is
to say , objects looked at tluough the diamond
mend remain objects still , and arc not
doubled.
It was not for many centuries , not till
the iiftccuth , that the. diamond was cut ,
when , in 1450 , Louis do Berquem , of
Burges , discovered the secret ot cutting
and polishing tlio stone by its own aid

Charles the Hold , IJuke of Burgundy ,
sent him three fine stones one for Sixlus
IV. one for Louis XI , and one for him
self , which was taken off hi.s de id linger
by a soldier and sold to a priest after the
battle of Nancy in 1477. Louis' grand
son , Itobcrt , says he received 0,000 ducats
for his work , and describes how his
pupils , after learning from him all lie
had to teach , went and set up for them

who , on their expulsion at the end of the
sixteenth century , went to Holland ,
settling tliero within \ear . to tlio num
ber of 10,000 , connected in one way or
the other with diamonds. In Paris , by
Ma/arin's influence , twelve of the most
famous of the French crown jewels were
rcciit. of which only the stone known as
the Tenth Mazarin , of 10 carats , valued
at JE2.000 , now remains , and by the min
ister's encouragement there were at the
end of tiio seventeenth century sirenty-
five cutters at work. In 1775 they had
dwindled down to seven only. In Am -
stordam so thinned wore they by civil
war , dissension and invasion that tliere
were but six. There were no old diamonds
mends to be recut , but there were B.832
carats of new waiting to be attacked , but
the seven masters of Paris were either
old and stupid or could not work fast
enough , for the stones were sent to
Antwerp , and at the revolution the cutters
wore at work on them and on old stones
from the crown of Franco in an aban
doned convent of the Chartrouv.
In the country of the Shangallas , in
South Africa , wlwro there has over been
a great commerce in gold , from time im
memorial the natives have been ac-
cu.stomod to use as weights the ceeds of
the Krythrina corallodendron , from their
almost precise similarity and equal
weight when dried. The native wont for
tlio seed appears to have been karat.
From Africa it passes to India , and from
a gold weight became used for precious
stones , and , divided into lour grains , was
early common to all tlio coun
tries tralliuking with India. There
are certain scumble differences
between the carat of different
countries between the carat , for in-
htanco , of a jeweler at Florence and a
jeweler at Madras. That is only to bo
expected , considering tiio rather chance
nature of the weight ; but what seems
strange \a \ the fact that down to 1877
there was a variation oven among the
first Paris houses until in that year "La
Chambrn Syndlcalo dijs ncirociants en
dianmnfs" decided that henceforth the
carat should correspond exactly to 205
milligrammes. Note , pray , that above one
oarat the value of the diamond increases
us the square of the weight ; that is to say ,
: i stone double the weight of another has
four times the value ; treble the weight ,
nine times the value ; ton times the weight ,
a hundred t linen the value. The best are
worth 13 per carat.
