General Jackson declined the honor proffered him of resting during hi f.nal sleep in this honorable, if second hand, tomb, hi letter from the Hermitage. ! dated March 27, 1m6. standing as one of j his most characteristic expressions lie ' taid: ' I cannot consent that my mortal body i shall be laid In a repository prepared for an emperor or a king. My republican feel ings and principles forbid It. Every monu ment erected to perpetuate the memory of our heroes and statesmen ought to bear evidence of the economy and simplicity pf our republican institutions and the plaln- !ness of our republican citizens, win are !the sovereigns of our glorious union and I whose virtue Is to perpetuate it.

The story connected with the other articles in the museum received as presents from the Iman of Muscat, Including a su perb necklace of ljO pearls and two sep erate enormous and exquisite pearls, a num ber of small diamonds, a cylindrical piece of gold, a Turkish, carpet, a bottle of attar of roues (which reposed for many years, a noted on the label. In the vaults of the treasury), four cashmere shawls, five demi johns of rosewater and one gold-mounted sword, is quite Interesting. President Jackscn, in' lSltf, sent Edmund Roberts of New Hampshire to arrange treaties of navigation and commerce with the principalities along the I no Ian ocean. A treaty satisfactory to ooih parties was arranged with the irr.an of Muscat. Io 125 mis treaty was ratified and Huberts ai,aln sailed for Muscat in the Peacock. About M miles from his destination the essel ran on a bar off the desolate Arab Ian coast. The cutastrophe occurred close t) the shore, and a hostile group of Arabs soon collecttd. threatening to board the esel and not only plunder the same, but to murder every one on board. The Bight oa which the accident hap pened was a dark one, and, about mid night. Commissioner Roberts, Midshipman Taylor and six sailors started off In an open boat to seek aid. After an extremely perilous passage of something more than two days they reached Muscat. The Iman, to whom they appealed for help, Immedi ately ordered Ahmet Ben Haman, In the sloop-of-war Sultanee, to proceed to the assistance of the Peacock. In the mean time couriers on swift mounts were dis patched to warn the wild chiefs that their heads would fall If the Americans came to harm. By these prompt and vigorous measures the vessel and crew were saved. Klve years after this exciting event Ahmet Ben Haman sailed the Sultanee into New Tork bay. He csnie as the accredited representative of the iman of Muscat, with tho presents enumerated for President Van Buren, and, In addition, two splendid Arabian horses, while the United States consul at Tangiers, Mr. Carr, had his hands, or more literally speaking, his room full with a couple of Hons, which, one way and another, caused him considerable In convenience. An African Eos. President Van Buren set forth in detail the troublesome matter of the lnian's gifts in a special message to congress in May. lMu. Herein mention is msde of the two lions which were given Consul Carr at Tangiers. President Van Buren declined the gifts, as the president was "under ex isting constitutional provlslous precluded from accepting them for his own use." Ahmed Ben Haman then offered the pres ents to the foverameat. The matter was referred by congress to a committee, and much weird procedure was gone through with, with the ultimate result, however, that the iman's gifts ara to oe seen, with the exception of course of the live stock, in the National museum. Embodied in President Van Buren's spe cial message to congress concerning the disposition of the presents is a letter from Consul Carr concerning the Hons, which throws a curious light upon the matter of presents to American representatives by foreign governments. It seems that when Consul Carr was advised of the present of Hons he set about immediately to write refusing the tempting offer. While thus engaged the sound of drums and other evidences of a noisy concourse In the street outside warned him that he was too late. In effect, there was the Iman's representative with the linns, escorted by attendants in gaudy garb. The consul took It upon himself to refuse the Hons in the name of the presided!. The presiding official was insistent how ever, and thereupon offered the beasts to the people of the United States, "the sul tans of America." Carr. still demurring, the Moor threatened "to turn the lions loose In the street, as It would cost him his head to take them back to the Iman." The consulate was situated in a narrow cul-de-sac, and the bewildered Carr. after surveying the densely packed crowd, and hearing the growling of the caged beasts, ordered the latter put In a room In the house where they were a source of great trouble and expense to him until, through great persistence on his part, ha received word to send to' the United States UNCLE SAM AS A LUMBERMAN l.amlier Worth Hundreds of Millions Is Standing la Philippine Islands. After spending seven years looking Into the forest resources of the Philippines, Harry D. Whltford. chief of the Investi gating division of the United' States for estry bureau, hss returned. Two hundred billion feet of lumber, worth 1300.000,000. he said, Is standing in the Philippines. It Is owned by the Philippines government, which is giving concessions to corporations to market trees which have a diameter ex ceeding 1$ inches. "The United States uses 41.000.000.000 feet of timber a year, and the Philippine for ests are capable of producing at least one fourth of this." said Chief Whltford. "But the Philippines are r.m likely to furnish us with much timber, the cost of trans portation across the Pacific being too great. China Is the best market for Phil ippine tlsiber,! and the demand Is very great. Most of the Philippine timber is admirably suited for building. It Is an ex cellent substitute for pine. It is light In weight and red in color, easy to work, and durable as plnr. One kind makes railroad ties which. If treated properly, last fifteen to twenty years. It grows readily and Ir In demand for building, but capital la needed to cut and market It. There Is blng enough cut 'o supply the Phil ippine market. 1 "The government doesn't sell any land to the timber companies without the per- mission of the forestry bureau. The com panies must leave enough timber behind o that the foreet will be able to repro duce itself in at least 100 years. Three companies are now cutting Philippine tim ber, and one has built a railroad five miles to tidewater. A railroad Indeed can be built to practically every timber section In the Philippines without great expense. "The government has not considered the advisability of going Into the lumber busi ness for Itself, but the for cutting privileges and the prices which me companies receive for timber in San Francisco are interesting to contmjit Lum ber for which the concessionlst pays tho government from 11 to $r, a thousand feet retails at $100 to ia In an Francisco.
