THE GEMS OF NEW YORK. VARIETY OF THE PRECIOUS STONES FOUND !N THE STATE. G'.m-Bearing cuartz Underlyina 3laulat taz-ved! Garnets In Abundance-Lake Uecrge Mamonds-Agate as Stalned L GIZst--ears in Fresh Water zooks. RPlesidents of New York customarily lcok to the West and SoL", and to foreign countries for precious and se CMius stones in their natural state, but in the Empire State are to be found some of the most beautitul known. Underlying New York City are gem-beariiz guartz reins, -but these -aults era now locked and in accessible. The seekerafter precious stones long ago gave "p his place to the rea-estae dealer, who has made more moey in building up than tLh other c .1 h a 1 y igging down An 1ide ! th-- te i d bl;et of the rre'ic"s stoes fcuind in Ne'v York Sige may b3 gathered from i visit to th Timtny-Morgan coliection of gems, belongmg to the State Cabinet atAibany, and to the Mineral ogical Clab's collection in the Museum of National Ykistory. On Manhattan Isl and are found'the yellow aquamarine, or beryl. the pale-green beryl, and the small, transparent red garnet, the quartz veins bearing them traversing the archmean rocke. The same veins irrilvewhers in the State towaxds the Adirondack -region. In Lewis County, however, precious stones are most abundant. - Here are found, in particular, great anautities of purple and red garnets. -At Newcomb, in the same county, -beautiful crystals of brown tourmaline are found. Prof es sor Beecher, of Yale, made this dis covery some time ago. In Richville, in the townthip of De Kalb, the finest crystals of pyroxene are picked up from time to time. Cut into gems weighing from three to thirty carats each, they possess a peculiar charm. They are of a rich, cily green, differ ing from the tourmaline, peridot, or green garnet. One of the most valuable of the na tive precious stones is the titante or sphene, which is found in the "Tilly Foster" mine, uear Brewster's, in Put nam Courty. This crystal is of a brilliant golden substance, and a great favorite with lapidaries. Cut inlo gems, it shows a greater play of color than the diamond itself, it is said by Mr. Kunz, the Government expert. It would be one of the most remarkable gems but for its softness; in beauty aud coloring it is unmatched. A sin gle stone, in its natural form, brings from $100 to $300. In excavating for the ship canal on the upper end of New York Island, crystals of smoky quartz were found in blasting the magnesium limestone. So exquisite in their crystallization and natural -olish were they that they had only to be cu~Idnto smoky topaz. v near i Count seems jo be the home of the Gaii line. One of these stones, of the col lection-of. ?lihu Boot, Sr., is as thiel as a mai"-s neck. Occasionally th crystals are transparent enough to af ford gems of from one to five carat: each. In Orange County, near Sus sex, on the New Jersey line, crystal of sapphire are found, but they ar not sufficiently tra parent to be c much value. B ly they have bee: ,greer ..ow-likre a pet ---where it. is fractured c ight strikes it in a crtci Altnone., strictly speaking,'it is ne a precious :stone, the pearl has bee found in many of the fresh vate brooks and rivers in this State.

These pearl bring from $1 to $100 eacL Gen erally they arec not white. but mise] interest attaches to the tinting-pink violet, purple and brown, 'the near being always the color of the shell1 ii which it is formed. The so-calie< "Lake George diamonds" are mor< beautiful than valuable. When fou(< in their natural setting of calciferont sandstone. they are more beautifa than the diamond of the Africar mines when it is first brought t< light. They are found in great pro fusion in Herkimer County, and thej are usually set in pins and charms. Jewelers' say, however, that nowhere do they look so well as in their nat. ural state, and mineralogists discover them always with delight. The cry stals, when they are fine, are snowy white, like Carrara marble, and when free from flaws, very beautiful. Some times they are found so minute that, when carefully sorted from the mud. it takes from 70.00i0 to 400.000 to weigh a single ounce; and each cry ~al per-fect as the largest. av ighteen perfect faces.

A largo portion of the Mery farm is already i working order, and was ofilcially ' ited a day cr two ago by the municipli delegates. Mery is a high-lying sandy plain, known to the local inhabitant3 as the Sahara of Paris. With the help of the sewage it is to be converted into pasture land, and it is to be hoped that when thus changed this desert will aid in the solution of the problem o supplying the capital with pure milk. A few yaars ago such expecta tions would have been scoffed at, but the results obtained with the sewage farm already in existence at Gennevil "iers have converted the most hardened skeptic. In fact, the inhabitants of Gennevilliers, whose land has gone up enormously in value, have just erected a statue to Durand-Claye, who caused the new system to be applied, and whose life was threatened by his fel low-citizens when first he proposed the innovation. Ole of the land-owners whCse property was to be taken by the Trial farm demanded 10,000,000 francs damages, and that sum was positively accorded him by the jury of the io:al court. On appeal the amount was re duced to 100 francs, but the original figure Is an indication of the hostility the scheme aroused iu the first in stance. OYSTER AND SPONGE FISHING.

Just as in the case of practi-ally every great scientiie achievement, there has for some monthe past been an active course of speonlatic in various channels respecting the prob able uses to which liquid air could be put with benefit to mankind. The X-ravs came in for their share of this sort of discussion, much of which was uninfcrmed, eome of it harzful to the accurate judgment of the people, and some of it sugestive. Liquid air has been hailed aE a great po-ver agency and as a refrigerant, capable in either capaciy of revoluticiizing existing methods. Later developments have served to cast doubt somewhat upon these sweeping claims. It is found that there is a serious difficulty in the storing of the power, with an alter native of running grave risk of el plosions or of suffering less through wcate. Thus far little progress has been made toward the general adop 'tion of the liquid for either purpose. Meanwhile a new field for it has been oened-that of sut gery and medicine. There is little doubt now in scientific minds that this new agency will prove of raiae in mauy branches of their work.

'Unless something is done to de crease the present ratego cutting red wood timber from the California forests the supply will be exhausted within the next generation. The red wood is of slow growth, the tree not reaching a marketable age in less than fifty years, and then the timber is only valuable for telegraph poles and lesser uses of commaerce, whereas if the iree is nermitted to attain its ful growth its tinmber may be impicyed for any nu.mber of ornnamental pur poses. The tree itself is par'ticularly beautiful and is found only in Cal ifornia, where in maturity it is from t enty to twenty-five feet in diameter and reaches a height of from 100 to :00 feet. It is perfectly straight and for nearly' half its height there is not a limb. It lives to the age of 1,000 years some writers say 1,500 years, e~t imzati ng from the number of rings rund the trurk. The timber is largly uised for wainscetings, panels andi 'eilings. and being of a smooth grin readiiv takes a line finish.
