AN EXTINCT FAMILY.-It is a curious fact
that there are no known descendants OF Chris
topher Columbus left on earth. He had two
sons, one of whom don Diego rose to distinc'
ton as an admiral land the other fernando as
scholar. Fernando was great traveller. de
not only thrice visited America, but subse-
quently traversed the whole of Europe and al
most every accessible portion of Asia and Afrl-
ca. He appears to have been profound
scholar and thoroughly good man. In his
will be stipulated that his library, containing
twenty thousand volumes, which he gave to
the Cathedral of Seville, should be free to the
people, and it is so to this day. From books
in this collection the late Washington Irving
obtained considerable portion of the intorma-
ton on which his Life of Columbus" was
founded.

river. Along with him came a neighbor, who
was his companion On the road, partOOk OF hls
meols, was acquainted with the exposed condi

trusty friend. But while the wagon containing
the brandy was stopping across the river, thus
companion du voyage came over into town
and informed the revenue collector OF the cir
eumstance, when an agent was at once sent to
seize the uninspected spirits.
When the brandy is sold, as it will be, one

SHOOTING EXTRAORDINARY Rich
mond correspondent of the Petersburg Express
tell the following remarkable incident which
occurred to a gentleman in the vicinity of
Williamsburg, few days since
'He was watching an opportunity tor shot
at some geese which were feeding in marsh
near by. The birds finally came within iull
range and the huntsman let hy Three of the
geese we're instantly killed, but o tremendous
Aoundering and oommotion in the water near
by excited his attention, aud raised his curl
osity. Upon a closer inspection, to his utter
amazement, he discovered that he not only
killed the geese, but had also mortally wounded
magnificent buck. 1t is the more remarka-
ble from the fact that when he fired the deer
was unobserved. 1t is supposed that the ami
NAL being closely pursued by dogs, took retuge,
in the water, where he was too much iatigued
to swim or move further.

unfavorable to the operation of free suffrage as
exercised in this country. While the election,
from Maine to California, passed with hardly
breath OF disturbance, shameful scenes were
enacted at the polls in England, Scotland and
Ireland At Bolton, mill was attacked and
torn down because number of voters were
supposed to be detained inside. At Blackburn,
a rash voter shouted 'Hornby for ever |" and
was Immediately brained with paving stones.
At Cupar, in F,feshire, candidate was stoned
in his carriage. At Belfast, mob broke ali
the windows and the dome Of the courthouse,
and kept up continuous volley of stones
throughout the proceedings, while detach-
ment of roughs gained and held the platform.
At Sheffield, the shops Of Mr. Roebuck's sup
porters were sacked by members of the Oppo-
site party; and from many other places come
reports OF skirmishes, interference of tho mill
tary, and the reading of the riot act. The
English have yet considerable to learn IN the
way of conducting an election dccently and In
order.
