I udoed tbtrt are indicatiom that tbo National legislature has hecom dWeoursged by tbo inanensity of tbe tank before it, ami I 9 ja a a a in is in a atato oi seiBi-aaspatr. To wage tariff Itgialat ion in tho faee of aucb lobby a ig winter tog u tbo Cspitol is Boon to bo too much for tin a effete old (Jongreaa departiog from tho atogo with tbo hisses of November ia its ears. Since those things are so, there is a re- virsl of talk about on extra session, aad tho retailing opinion with soliiio al wise-acres is that an extra aeaaion will bo called to moot immediately after tbo fourth of March. In case an extra session ia called tbo oeuteet for tho speakership will be precipitated much earlier than baa been anticipated. There will bo no trouble or delay in tbo organization of tbo Henato, as tbo lie- publicans will have a majority of t we or four with tho assistance oi tho Jfctead- juator Senators I ram Virginia. The course ia tba Sonata it is thought will bo to oloot Henater Anthoay, of Ilhodo Island, President of tho Senate, while tho Democrats will bee tew tho com plimoat of their rote B(en Senator iij- srd, of Delaware There may bo another roaooa why Congress ia doing but little work. It is not within tho power of mortal man to caper nimbly in a ladioo chamber" all night and then to give intelligent consideration to legislative tabjeeU during the dsy. The social season ia at ita height, and ia raging in balls, reoep tiona aad dinners. Tho season is too short for tbe social program, hence too or three entertainments, each issuing cards to everybody of note, are crowded iota a a eveatag, and Mr. Senator, Mrs. Senator and Miaa Senator, aa well as Mr. Reprtaoatalive sad I is household, may bo sees at a reception at one of tbo Justice! of tbo Supra! Court from ton to eleven o'clock p. nr., and fiota eleven to two in tbo morniog at another rrtiab stone of tbe foreign misiatrrs. Thaws "cruahoa," as they are well called, ago about aa well catculataa to nrodacr e headache and physical suck a any thing that a diabolical science ooul l in vent. Tbe cruabea are resit v iheemuc 07 of the far famed Washington malaria. Tbo over heated, gaa lit, crowded rooms producing materia, in ita etymological sense (bad air), of tbo worst typo. It is curious to see the enthusiasm with which tho old fellows aad their wives plung into this dissipation ; they really enjoy it ; conceit still works in their seasoned bodies, else why do they not go to bod at ten o'clock instead of this martyrdom to vanity until two iu tho morning. It is somewhat disen chanting to aee aged senators, justices ofSu Court, and Cabinet minis- tors prancing around in pik-tail coats. No sculptor baa yet dared to give a atatue to this Urajmry ; it ia not dignifi ed, and 'dignified" eomss from a word that means worthy. I have boon led to these reflections by seeing two very prominent Presidential aspiranta, and half a dosen leas prominent but stilt hopeful aspirsnts, at two different re ceptions tbo other night. Mr. Blaine ia growing old very rapidly, he looks to be Bearer seventy than fifty-two. There ia a listlessness ia his motions, an air of weariness in his manner, and a bit terness of disappointed ambitions in bis face that was net observable ten years ago, when he sat the incarnation of health and energy in the speaker1 chsir of the House of Representatives. Attorney General Brewster is, through a terrible accident, the home- nest man mat ever apnea rod at a re e a e . ception. He fell in tbe fire years ago and his faee is scat red, seamed, and disfigured until it looks like raw beef. He bas been ma eh ridiculed for wear ing ruffled shirts, instead of the conven tional starched bosom, but Mr. Brew ster doubtless wishes to detract atten tion from til hrtrrikl iliufiniiMMMit of hl8 fae, by M eXeentricity of dress, and his ruffled hhirU have certain! v the ef- 0 m ' a J feet OI neutralizing the ghASthnOSS of Ita nlS countenance.

The Princess Lroulte has sent to Ridoau Hall, Ottawa, a large number of Indian aad Cbiueso curiosities, purchased by her during her tour through British Columbia. Tho only brother of Mr. John G.

Hawthorne disliked to sit (or lis photograph, remarking, on one occa sion, "The sun seeim to take an Infernal pleasure In making me venerable, as If I were as old as him. self," hot ho was delighted to lit for a portrait. Mr. W. W. Astor, the American Minister to Rome, hss organised an American club In that city for the purpose of affording fa-Hides to visit ers. The rooms of the club house are well furnished, and include read ing, billiard, card, dres and conver oat loci rooms. It fs stated that Bancroft, the historian, makes his roses tbo calen dar by which he tells off his seasons, staying In Washington until the Jacqueminots and June give op the ghost, and then lingering In his Northern garden until the hardiest queen of tho flowers eurrumbs. Mary Walker' present costume Includes a Prince Albert cent, high silk hat, and rather loose trousers. She carries a cane, and her hsir Is unskilfully cot short, aa though she had done It herself. Instead of wearing an overcoat on cold days, ahe wraps herself In a heavy shawl. Elisabeth Cady Stanton has seven children : Antoinette Brown Black- well has five ; Lucretla Mott six ; Li ilia Devereaux Blake, two ; Mrs. Olympia Brown, two ; Martha C.

Now, my dear," said the teacher. "what Is memory '!" The tittle girl BB.iwered, after a moment's reflection, "It is tbe thing you forget with." A man who has happened te have good deal of experlenee says 'Stand anywhere but four feet to the left ef a woman when site hurls an old bottle at a hon." An Intelligent farmer Ipjiiig asked If his horses were well matched, re plied : "Yes, they are matched first rate ; one of them Is willing to do ail the work, and the other is willing that he should." "Your husband Is s staid man now, Is he not V asked s former school mate of her frlood who had married a man rather noted for his fast habits. "I think so," was tho reply, "he stayed out all last night" Mr. J. J. if. Gregory says that an acre of land may contain six tons of worms.

Near Tabiana, Italy, the remains of a fossil elephant hvo bean found. The find has caused quite a sooaalion, and there will likely be a careful excavatioa made when the Winter ia over.
