One of the Washington correspond ents reports that " The Basset Claim," by Mr. Henrv R. Elliott, has had an immense sale in Wash ington, and was largely instrumental in passing the French spoliation claims by Congress. Pigs have been known to live to the age of twenty, and tho rhinoceros to twenty-nine. A horse has been known to live to the age of sixty-two, but averages twenty-five to thirty. Camels sometimes live to the age of one hundred; stags are very long lived; bheep seldom exceed the age of ten : cows live about fifteen years. The Earl of Selkirk, whose title has become extinct by his death lately at St. Mary's Isle, Scotland, was son of the founder of Selkirk settlement in Canada. Paul Jones once dropped down on St. Mary's Isle and carried off the family plate when the Earl was away. It was recovered and thr fomilv imra tf .,.- day. The Clinical Record says that after the chief enpinfr nf thn ) ..- partraent of Philadelphia pointed out the poor quality of the water and the glaring defects in its supply, he was requested by the authorities "to re frain from any further expression of his sentiment on the subject, no matter how great the general public interest in it." The present Duke of Bedford, head of the house of Russell, who is held up in a rather unpleasant form just now by the London press, is a con firmed cynic. There i3 no member of London society that savs so many biting mots or who imp'resses one with a deeper notion of his disbelief in human nature generally. "Swell" funerals are going out of style in the larger cities, and the tendency now is in tho direction of strict simplicity and privacy. Good authority reports for New York that aimost an iunerat services are held from the houses of the deceased per sons. A few of the personal friends are invited, and the crowd is given to understand that it is not wanted. liie King and Queen of Saxony are now traveling incognito through Switzerland andltaly. The Queen is a florid, dark-eyed, dark-haired woman,stout and comely.and middle aged. The King is a fine looking man. withgray hair and whiskers. All the Katherines of England are contributing to a fund to place a memorial of brass on Queen Kath erine's tomb, in Peterborough Ca thedral, that poor old ladv, though immortalized by William Shake speare, never having had a suitable monument.

She be gan to write in 1854, and has kept at it so industriously that her books of all kinds now number 120 titles, or something like four hundred vol umes. A ladies' club patterned upon the Union, is soon to be organized in -if Yrk Cky. Its membership TOH be composed of the most promi nent women in the society of the metropolis. The names of Mrs. Riv ers, Mrs William Astor, Mrs. John Jacob Astor, and Mrs. Adrian Iselin have already been suggested for President, and the Misses Hewitt and Miss Marbury will almost certainly be among the governesses. It goes without saving no men are to be ad mitted to the club, either as mem bers or as visitors. The servants aie all to be women, and the stewardess will be a person of long experience as housekeeper. As might be ex pected, many of the husbands of present and prospective members do not favor the new club. Several who do not happen to be club members in particular, frown severely upon it, and say they do not see why their wives should join a club when their husbands have not done so. One bright woman is said to have givec as her excuse for not jeining: "I have married a husband, and there fore I cannot come." , Two for a Cent Apiece. puiSfad'tt'eT&oas U -:a "I.j.r. . auecuons ' "i"'a" " ?ngnrer, ana they nxea a day for him to call nn h father, and on that day he was promptly in the old gentleman's of fice.

She gave assent, and if you will do the same, that will make two, and we can buy a postage stamp and write to you for the bal ance of our salary." It was a wretched attempt, but he got the girl. A Very Xatural Mistalce. A gentleman who had just arrived from Boston last Sunday evening dropped into a church on his way to a hotel while the minisfpr wna 1. scribing the glories of Heaven. "Must be a beautiful place," whis pered a man in the same pev.'. "Beautiful!" replied the Bosto nian, "beautiful is no name for it. I left there this morning." "Left Heaven this morning?" said his amazed neighbor. "Heaven? Is he describing Heaven ?" "Certainly." "Well, I'll be everlastingly Amer icanized if I didn't think he was describing Boston." The people of DeKalb County, Tenn., drive a nice little trade in pearls gathered from mussels in the Caney Fork River. A number of valuable specimens have been found of late. A few years ago a specimen which is said to have brought $300 in New York, was found in this river near Smithville. During the low water from Juno to November, hun dreds of men are engaged at the busi ness of gathering mussels. It is said to be the best paying enterprise in that section of country.

To those who remember the old grist-mill, with its single or double run of stone, its lazy wheel, and the miller who was boss and all hands, the feat of one of the great Min neapolis mills in turning out 0,200 barrels of flour in one day seems to mark as great an advance in the me chanical appliances and business en terprise as can be shown in any man ufactures.
