Diamonds to the value of over five million dollars were sold in one lot re cently by the De Beers company, of South Africa, to a syndicate. Tub topaz took its name from a Greek word meaning guess, since the ancients could only guess at the local ity where this beautiful stone was ob tained. The finest specimen of native gold ever found was in a Ural nugget, which gave nearly ninety-nine per cent, of gola, the balance being sibyer and copper. The value of coral depends much up on its color, which varies from the most delicate flesh or pink to deep crimson. The pale shades are the most rare and highly prized. Whex" Pizarro sacked Peru many gems were obtained, but a monstrous emerald, as large as an ostrich egg, called the "Great Mother," was hidden by the natives, and has never been found. The gold mines of Peru were so rich that Atahuallpa, to buy his ransom, filled a room 22x17 feet to a height of 9 feet with golden vessels. When melted they produced $15,480,710 of gold.
