Bantua Darse, A SPANISH LEGEND. What Ferdipand the Third Besoughe of Bgeavens Correspondenre of the New York Times Among the numerous legends told in conuec- tion ath Spain snd ittgGovernment, is the ful- lowing, which is not not without interest, and is atloast amusing. It relates to Fordinaud lif., who was Fuppoued to havo been such 9 great benezactor to his country that be went direct to Paradiso without Leing detained for any length of time in purgatory, Upon hig srrival at his destination, he was immadistely constituted a sajnt of tho first degreo, and among othor favors ho received, at the hauds of the Virgin Mary, was permiasion to ask any three things ho might de: sire, like the old couple in tho childreu’a story with which we wore all familiar in our youth, but in which, if recollect aright, the benefits were conferred by a different personage. Well, ef course Ferdinand 111, hoving been made a saint hud nothiug olyo to dosire, so far as ho was personally concerned. Lvenif it had Leen otherwise, being 60 fond of his country, he would doubtless have logked after the wolfare of Spain botore making any request for hi vive personal adyantago, and, theretore, he fire. ezked that his countrynion should hayo an un)imited supply of wine, oil, and garlic, His request waz imme- diatety granted, a8 was also adomanJ! . r good harvests and plenty of mules for cariyinz the grain to market. ‘Tho good saint had vow nearly reached tha ond of histether, and boforo tho iinal domand ho asked to be allowed twelve hours for consideration. As it was, ifthe story betruo, ho bad taken rather a mean advantage of tho good nature of tne Holy Mother, by embodying several benefits for “his country in cach of the two demands he had made, but, being a great favorite at the time, it apponrs that tho discrep- aney was overlooked. Mow Fordiuaud occupied his time during tho twolve Lours which had boow given tohim we are not told, but attho tima appointed ie waa ready with bis request, which was that Rpain might have a * good Govorn- ment.” ‘The Virgin Mary roplied that, much to her regret, sha could not, in justice to the deni- zous of Paradise, comply with this domand ; for, were it granted, Spain ja such a delightful coun- trv to live in that tho angels would takp up their residence therein proferenco to remaining in Varadise, Fordinand UL. thonght that the [oly Mother was rather hard on bin, but with a diptomatio tact worthy of Bismarek himself, lio substituted for Lis ual demand a request that tho Spanish woman wight rasombie angels as nearly as tho Virgin might deom consistent with har senso of justice to tho angela in Paradise, aud that tho men might not only be baudsome but talentod. No objection was offered to this, and for anything we know to tho contrary, the good saint i still sharing tho accomodation afforded tothat “sweet little cherub” of British origin who “sita up aloft, and looka after tho life of poor Jack” — Spaniard. s Lady Dadicy’s Joweln : From the London times, Tho robbory of Lady Dudley's jewol-casa, out- side the Groat Waustorn Nailway station, at Pad- dington, just previous to tho etarting of the Woreouter exprevs leaving London, was offected under ciroumetances which leave little doubt that the thief waa o practiced hand, aod has Isid his plans with an ingenuity worthy of a better purpose, Lord aud Lady Ludley ar- rived at the railway station in bis lordsbips Dbrougham at 6:20 p.in., aud were isomodiatoly followed by a fouf-whoeled cab conveymg two of the Countows' waiting women, ouch in charga of a pondorous jewel-box and other articles of alady’s toilette, Scott, oue of the women, waa the firrt who alighted, aud Loving deposited upon the pavement the bux under hor care, whilo turnibg round to assiat or cumpanion, for bet- tor security, sod with commoudable caution, placed ono’ foot upon tho jawel-caso, In an unlucky instant bor attentlon was diverted by the othor maid, and sho removed her foot from the box, Hor companion having alighted, Scott stoopad to recover tho box, when, to her great constornation, she found .it had been romoved, Au instant search was made by the Jarl's sor- vants and by the railway olticials in attondance, but no tidings coald bo gained of it.

This ie duo partly tothe natural impatience of men of ecience to tost, by new measurements and imptoved methods, the conelnsions arrived at by former observers, cunclusiona woich vary very materially, But itis dne in etill greater meavure to the controversy between Mr. Proctor, who is a vort.of ** free lance” in the entimate of our fogy astronumera, aud L'rof.
