A letter from Heidelberg in the Berlin Dar Eh says that a rich American has offered to provide the city on the Neckar, already famous for! its gigantia tao, with "the biggast in katand in the world." He thinks that the unguration of a "mammoth inkpot" would be a must appropriate part of the ceremonial at the approaching conten

The generous mau is the owner of an eodemans monolith in Texas, which could be excavated so as to hold countless gallons of} ink. The stone is worth at least 81,500; but he will gladly present it to the oily, or the ani- versity, if the authorising will arrings for the cost of its transit from Aragrica to the Palati- uate of the Rhine. It is not like the Cleopatra ebelisk, observes the owner. for it has never been "decorated by a chisel "

The Russian Oficial Messenger give the fol lawing socount of the veramony attending the G Ameer of Bokhara's scosssion to the throne, which was held on the 16th November, 1885. "At daybreak the members of the Mahomeda clergy, the troops the representatives of the Usbig families, and the civil offlers assembled in the Ameor's palace, after a short interval. the Prince's most intimate companions began to prepare the throne, a large block of blue-grey marble, abont 9ft, din broad and 4ft. Sin, high, with steps leading in the top. It was first orozed with eston Bokhars and Ladian carpete of precious texture, and thya at its feet was placed sfalt rug of immaculate whiteness and insotapar- sola fueness At 11 o'clock the Prince came forth from his apartments richly apparallel. All those pressat prostratai themasives, The Trince retarned their salate and nested himself on the white felt at the foot of the throns. The bigh ofis's and the Ushog representatizes then took the ends of the folt rag and by suited mo meat raised the Prince and placed him on the threne. This ceremony was followed by pro found salutations and land acclamations, and then by the kiss-hands,' which may be termed the oath of allegiance, as it is the practice after kissing the Amor's hand to carry it to the eyes and the forehead. After this was finished the audionos raised their arms to the heavens and prayed aloud for the now Ameer wants wore than distributed, and the Amer withiram to hia Own Apartments accompanied by his two chief 4431 Muister."
