An object of interest—Seven- j thirties. Used up when it rains—An urn- ■ brella. Men who take things as they come along—Thieves. The flower of speech springs from the roots of the tongue. When a maiden gets married she end a miss-spent lifeo New York has a Count, and his name is Michel Dycednrzyski. A New Yoyk belle had a bill of 820,000 at Stewart's last month. There is an American in Paris i who pretends to have $80,000,000, ■ cash. General Joseph E. Johnston has l ’ gone into the insurance business in Georgia. Rev. W. 11. Green, ex clergyman and Radical orator, is having his new trjal for wife poisoning at Litchfield. In eleven counties in Minnesota , the Radicals have separate tickets, and still the split in the party goes I on. ■ *• The Sheriff of Mitchell county, i - North Carolina, finds it almost impossible to collect the “special railload tax.’’ The people are unwiling to pay it. At last accounts the Great Eastern was stowing away forty miles a day of the cable soon to be laid between Aden and Bombay, a distance of 1800 miles, more or less. The Virginia flegrocs arc so poorly ofl', because of the drouth, that their destitution is made the pretext for asking a revival of the Freedmen's Bureau in that State. ; T he Radical committees in- New ' York calculate that the post-office j excavation can be made to hold five thousand workmen just before ; election. • A colored mail agent in Missis- I Rippl, distributed the mail so liber ally along the route that he complained that he hadn't enough to go around. Dickens is said to quote but little from the writings of others, but.' when he does quote, it is, in a ma- I jority of eases, from the sacred i Scriptures,. The statne of Henry Clay, on Capitol Square, in Richmond, has ; mH the fingers broken off from the ; righthand and carried away by relic limiters. One of the Salt Lake saints has,' for three of his wives, a grandmother, mother, and daughter. in ■ this wav avoiding the unpleasantness of a mother in-law. The Spiritualists have called up Byron, and asked him the impor- ' taut question whether Mrs. Stowe's yarn is true. To this Byron’s ghost respofmed, “It's ad—d lie.’’ ■ The reason why Frelingliuvsen declined the Chinese mission has leaked out. He wasn't on good | terms with his uncle, old Hyson,; who lives there. The Chicago Times says: “That egregrious ami egotistical old ass, I Giant, senior, now claims that he founded the Radical party. Grant, > junior, will founder it.” For | ahame,7’< 'mes'. Low-necked shirts are pronounced the latest style for nice young : men. Just imagine a sweet youth with his hair parted in .the middle, a brass-head cd cauc—and a low necked shirt. Bridget, in reply to a her mistress that sheehad put too much game into the omelet, replied that she did it so that it would not taste so strongly of the eggs, which were bad.. Lady Montague, the famous wit. on being asked if she would not have preferre I to belong to the other sex. sternly replied in the J negative, because in t hat case she * might have been obliged -tc mar- ( ry a woman. • Robeson says ho has discovered a sad deficiency in our war vessels. ‘ They are not sufficiently supplied with “euchre decks" to make them pleasant for the reception of Gov- 1 eminent ofllcials.
