Hon. Lady CanUassed IN Ireland.
A corresnondent of the Waterford Mail
eiyes the following anecdote OF the late
election for Clare: The contest turned
wholly upon personal popularity, ana
Calcutt, who is a farmer-like, Jolly irish
gentleman, was better calculated to win
upon the people than the fashionable
young captain of crack corps. HIS
wife, too. would make the fortune OF
anv candidate. A fine, dashing woman
she rode about the country in the car
riage with her husband in his canYasslng
expeditions; and, when he was one day
in public house, seeing parish COM
mittee, and she was outside IN the
barodche, awaiting his return, the trleze
coats gathered round the vehicle end'
giving three cheers for her HONOR
called upon her to make q speech
Prompt as lightning, she replied i
wont trouble you, my friends, with my
oratory, but I'll sing you song, which
an Irishman, with music in his soul,
would any day prefer to a speech and
with that, in clear and pleasant voice,
she struck up, Let Erin remember,
and followed the ditty with several
other melodies of Tommy Moore a
person who witnessed the scene ossurcc
me there was nothing incongruou'
about it; tho lady sung her best, on'
entered into the spirit of her song an'
the frieze coats listened entrancod
From that moment forth, during th
canvass, she never appeared in public
without having to sing song

u An excellent opportunity to pur-
chase diamonds may be found by visiting
Constantinople it is stated in letter
from that city that owing to the distress
which now prevails general sale OF these
stones is making by Turkish families, and
Chat the consequence is depreciation OF

IHE DISTRICT OFFIcRRs.-From gossiping
Washington letter in the N. Y Express, we
clip the following: 49, 7-s. =
It appears that Mr. Lincoln is 30 run down
with ofice-seekers at Springfield, that he has
determined 70 remove, In few weeks, to the
residence of Francis P. Blair, in Md, about
six miles from this city Rather q queer
domicil. you will say, for an admirer of Henry
Clay. Mr.. Blair's house can only be reac he'd
by an ordinary road, and muddy one to boot
In the winter. The usual charge for a hack
from this city is S.. / mention this for the
benefit of the New York ofice seekers. They
should also bear in mind before they start,
that possibly Old Abe may not be at home
when they arrive. In this way, if they are
wise, they will save their i've dollars
There are, Of course, numerous candidates
Tor the District Offices in the field. For Mar
shall, Mr.. George Harrington, the we'll known
lobby agent for the New York claims for goods
destroyed by the fire of 1895. Mr.. B. B.
French and Mr.. John A. Linton. Harrington
and Linton were originally wings, French a
Locofoeo from N. H. Harrington was chief
clerk OF the Treasury under COrwin, and is a
native of Massachusetts. Linton is native of
Virginia, and the son-in-law of VIM A. Brad
ley, ex-postmaster of this city. French was a
Know-Nothing in 1855 and '56, but meanly
denied it over his own signature in the Star,
when threatened with removal from office by
ten. Pferce.
Lewis Clephane and Daniel R. Goodloe, both
recently connected with the National Era, are
candidates for lucrative Offices The former
wishes to be lst Assistant P. M. General. He
was the agent in this city for Helpers book, &,
and has circulated thousands of copies. Ma
than Sargent would like the City Post Office
or his old place of Register of our Treasury
He deserted the Union party in June last Mr.
Coombs, formerly of Ohio, is said to be a can
didate for the place of District Attorney. He
Is now clerk to the Military Committee Of the
House, and was one Of the editors of the Re-
public, which died last winter Mr. Hatch,
formerly of Bangor, is spoken of for Commits
sioner Of Pensions. .--. -.
1t Is little singular that nearly all the gem
tlemen above named are Unitarians-yiz. h,
Harrington, French, Goodioe, Sargent, Linton
and Hatch. Yet the Unitarian congregation
here is the smallest in the city. ..
