EXTRAORDINARY LoNGEvITY.--A colored
man, named Billy, the property of the late
Mr.. Sarah Ingram, died at Norfol k on Fri.
daylight, at the advanced age of one hun.
dred and seventeen years. He was Il ma.
tive of Hanover county, Va; born in the
service of Peter Garland, ESD was at Nor
folk when it was burned in 1875, and press
ed into his Majesty's service by Gov. Dun
more. He was also at the battle of Great
Bridge, and remembered all about the siege
of Yorktown. The Norfolk Herald says:--
"Billy was stong, hale and hearty even to
the day of his death. He was employed as
a drnyman until he was rs years old, and at
the age of6S could roll hogshead of suger
weighing 1900 lbs, on his dray without assis-
tance. He was always good-humored well
disposed, and scrupously honest. tits re-
markable coincidence that, for the last sixty
years, he lived in family three of he in
mates ofwhich have died within the last two
years, two at the ages of 90 and "a, and one
at the age of 76."

from the Washington Union of yesterday
that Capt. Porter, Of the steamship Crescent
City, arrived in Washington on Friday eve
ming last, having, as il says, been sent for to
New York, to come TO head quarters and ex.
plain his conduct. The Union adds:
He is kindly received; but the end Of the
conference between himself and the admin
istration is that the Crescent City, which he
commanded on her last trip to Havana when
she was insulted because an innocent man
Mr.. Purser Smith-who was supposed TO
be inimical to her Majesty the Queen Of
Spain, was on board, ~ has been ordered
off the line from New Orleans to Havana,
and thence 20 New York; and that hereafter
she will run between New York and New
Orleans alone, Mr.. Smith being on board (!
1t is true, Lieut.. Porter was only temporari-
ly in command ofthe Crescent City, his own
vessel, the Georgia, being laid up for repairs;
and it is also true that the Crescent City be-
longs to the line that does not stop at Ha-
vana on the way between New York and

1h GoLD DEposiTs IN CANADA. The provn-
cial geologist of Canada, in his report for the
year 1851 '52, gives an account OF gold wash
ings on the river Du Loup, at its junction
with the Chandler, in which he states that
during the present season 1000 penny
weights of gold have been obtained by
the company engaged in working the de-
posit. Much time and money were lost in
consequence Of their dam being carried a.
way, but on the whole the labor has been
remunerative. The other minerals found in
connection with the gold and iron sand, a
small quantity of plantnum, and irrodum
with au indication of mercury. l.aa
p Several prospectors, both American and
Canadian, ,haye traversed the country around
and have been successful also in finding the
precious metal in other localities, but had not
succeeded in making its collection pro6ta-
Bile. The geologist concludes, from the evil
dence collected, that the deposits are not
generally sufficiently rich to render their
working remunerative 10 unskilled labor;
and that agriculturists and others engaged
in the ordinary occupations Of the country,
would only lose their time and labor by turn
ing gold-hunters

"THIs HAND NEVER Struck ME."-WC
recently heard the following most touching
incident. A little boy had died; his body
was laid out in darkened, retired room
waiting to be laid away in the lone COLI
grave.
His afflicted mother and bereaved littl,
sister went in to look at the sweet face .
the precious sleeper, for his face was beau
tifal even in death. AS they stood gazing
upon the form of the one so cherished ant
beloved, the little girl asked to take hi
hand The mother at first did not think i
best, but her child repeated the request, an
seemed very anxious about il, she took th
the cold bloodess hand of ber sleeping boy
add placed it in the hand of his weeping sis
ter. -'
The dear child looked at it u moment car
essed it fondly; and then looked up to he
mother through the tears of weeping afiec
ton and love, and said: "Jfother this hhl
hand nerer struck me-

must be the sorrow, and how scalding tn
