The German emperor and empress have been busy of late in unpackiag and arrang- ing the innumerable and magnificent gifts presented to them by the sultan. A cor- respondent at the Berlin court writes that those of the emperor include a splendid sword, valued at not less than $75,000. The blade is an old Damascus cone, cf re- markable beauty, being engraved with sentences from the Koran. The hilt is studded with emeralds and diamonds. There are also whole cartloads of the finest Turkish cigarettes, which were specia)ly made for his majesty, and a quan- tity of smoking necessaries, of which may be mentioned a chebook of araber, covered with precious stones, and a tobacco casket with the sultan’s initials in Turkish. The presents of the Empress include a pair of agrafies, composed of the most superb diamonds, from which hang strings of pearls and diamonds, which can be formed into a collar. The value of this gift alone is said to be $125,000. Her Majesty has also received a quantity of costly silks, fine oriental carpets, fans, shawls, embroidered slippers, and other articles too numerous to mention. Perhaps, how- ever, the most graceful act of the Sultan has been to seud Her Majesty a portrait of her consort, painted especially for the Sul- tan by an Italian master, which was hung, with great tact, in Her Majesty’s bedroom at Yildiz Kiosk. Finally, His Majesty has sent the Emperor, Empress and Prince Henry of Prussia exch a magnificent horse of pure Syrien breed. oe Stanley’s Own Book.
