Senator's Mason and Hunter.

Tho Washington correspondent of
the Cincinnati Enquirer thus refers, in
his last letter, to our Virginia Sena-
tors:
Senator Mason, Of Virginia, is pre-.
pairing himself for big splurge in the
Amistad claim. The Senator is by
no means agreeable either in manner
or speech. Helooks like an aristocrat,
and acts like an aristocrat. What o
contrast between him and his colleague
Hunter Senator Hunter is an Ameri-
can Democrat out and out, both in
manner, appearance, and action. Of
vast and comprehensive mind; clear,
intellectual, and Industrious habits !;
he adds the manners of gentleman
and the kindness Of neighbor. He
makes no fuss, is quiet and unobstrus-
ive,but is always on hand when business
calls, and goes into it as if there was
no labor in it to make blow about
He is man of mark, and will always
be, while his colleague will pass away
without being scarcely remembered,
except for his haughtiness.

Extraordinary Gunpowder Plot.

Paris to be Blown Up.-A Paris
correspondent Of the St. Louis Anzteger
des Westens, writes that the lower
classes of the Partisan population are
seized with terrible suspicion, which
the late predictions by the clergy of
an impending catastrophe have not
tended to allay. 1t seems that for
the last two years the Catacombs, those
immense subterranean quarries out of
which and over which Paris has been
built, have boen closed to the public.
This fact, added to the general impress
ion that the Emperor would shrink
from no means, however diabolical, to
suppress a revolution, has led to the
rumor that the Catacombs are filled
with powder, with train leading to a
chamber beneath the Tuileries, so that
in case of successful uprising of the
people, the Emperor would need but
lighted match to blow half the city to
atoms, and in the confusion and terror
which would necessarily onsuc, would
regain his power.

Sainserain's vineyard, in Californ;,
covers forty acres Of ground and has
10000 who's. The product of this
vineyard has been this season 81, OOO
gallons of white wine, 5000 gallons
OF red wine, 5000 gallons angelica
and 5000 gallons brandy-in all 49,
600 gallons. To mako one gallon Of
brandy requires five gallons of wilma
and for each gallon of angelica about
fifteen pints of wine. This will make
the produce of the vineyard equal to
about IS, 900 gallons of wine, and NOR
than six quarts of wine to the wine.

Happy Result of a Practical Joke,

A curious story is told of an ap-
preaching marriage of the daughter of
a Russian Prince and Princess, and a
musician we'll known in London and
Paris. 1t appears at Baden the Pro-
fcssor was engaged to give accompany
ing lessons to Mad'lle P, and that
a mutual though unconfessed attach
ment was the result Of these frequent
musical tete-a-tetes. At the Sotree
which was given Immediately prior to
the departure of the family, some prac-
teal joker, seeing the state Of things,
put his views to the test, by suddenly
exclaiming after the artist was gone,
GLOW dreadfully cut up $ looked
tonight, "a fact universally conceded.
Immediately after, he again exclaimed
"Why here is SIS hat. What can
it mean ? Stop there is bit of paper
inside. What does it say ?" He APP
preached nearer the lamp and peru
sing the paper, exclaimed rushing to
the door, "There's not moment to be
lost ! Poor S. |! Poor ST." Of
course every one crowded around.
while Mad'lle P stood pale and
motionloss by the piano. The paper
was picked up and read aloud: "Be-
fore this meets your eye, / shall be no
more; ] hasten to terminate life no
longer bearable. Keep this hat which
l shall want no more and remember
me-"
OF course every one was aghast, and
most Of the men rushed out into the
street, while Msd'lle P fell upon
the floor in violent fit of Mysteries,
and with all the CONSERVATION which
filled the place, none were 80 complete
ly overcome as the poor wag himself,
who had only meant to play pleasant
trick, and not to raise house about
his ears as he had done. Meanwhile
Madlle =. was conveyed from the room
but not until she had betrayed her SC.
cret amid the most dismal wailine; and
just as the musician was brought
back in triumph by his friends, having
been found at the hotel, he heard his
own name pronounced with every ep.
tibet Of endearment and term Of self.
reproach in the voice he loved best to

The New Census.

The apportionment for members of
Congress, under the census of 1860,
viii make great change in the repre-.
sentation of several States, judging
from the votes at the recent election
in some of the Western States. Hi
nois, with nine members OF Congress,
has given ESQ, 900 votes, while Massa-
chuseets, with eleven representatives,
gave only 10000. Wisconsin, with
only three representatives, has given
a vote within a fraction of that of
Massachusetts. Compared with the
vote of many other States the discre-
pancy is still greater. The elections
at the west were, however, held under
greater excitement and called out o
fuller vote than in most of the old
States:

"Mrs. Cunningham, of Burdell murder
notoriety, and her two daughters, ara
living in an elegant mansion in twenty.
third street, and apparently in easy
circumstances. They give parties oc.
casionally,anI the head of the family
it is said, was visible at the opera

married recently to young southern
planter, and HELEN, it is understood.

Claiming a Farm in Washington.

Something of a furry has been crea-
ted amongst the property holders in
the northern portion of the city, east
of Seventh street, by rumors that a
person, belonging to New York, has
laid claim to some sixty or seventy
acres of land north of the Avenue,
between the Capitol and Seventh street,
dating his title as far back as when the
land thereabout was farm. We hear
that the case, with contingent fee,
was offered to Mr.. Norris, lawyer of
this city, but was declined by him, from
which ii is to be inferred, he consider
ed the claim not likely to amount to
anything. In any event, the Govern
