BOSTON ENLARGINa IT'S AREA.-By the
annexation of Dorchester to Boston.
which will be entirely complete in Janu.
ary next, the latter city will con tain
$50, 900 souls. It now extends from
Charles to Neponset River, about seven
miles, and is, on the average, three miles
In breadth. About 500 buildings are
now being erected in the city, and the
building of houses is proceeding about
as rapidly in the suburbs. It is proposed
to annex other cities and towns, such as
Cambridge. Charlestown, Chelsea, b. .ook-
line, West Roxbury, Brighton, go. They
will doubtless be annexed one after an
other, SO that the day is not distant when
Boston will contain 500, 900 inhabitants.
After that point is reached, the popuIa-
ton will be doubled sooner than one
would imagine.

WHAT uEx-GovRRNoR SEWARD HAS
SEEN.-What one man may live to see is
admirably illustrated in MIR. Seward g
Alaska speech, as follows:
"Within the period of my own recol-
lection, have seen twenty new States
added to the eighteen which before that
time constituted the American Union,
and now see beside Alaeka ten Terrific
ries in forward condition of prepara-
lions for entering into the same great
political family. have seen in my own
time not only the first electio telegraph,
but even the first railroad and the first
steamboat invented by man.

strangely deformed. He is without ears,
and never had any. He gathers sounds
by the medium of his mouth, and can
hear anything said in an ordinary CON
yersation. Equally as strange, his hair
is black, with white spots nearly as large
as the palm of a mans hand interspersed
through it. He is about forty. five wears
OF age, and the happy possessor of thir-
teen living children.
Occasionally when the train arrives at
Mlddietown, a nice young man jumps of

a. WEDDING PARTY BARR1oADED.-Some
nights ago, couple in Cleveland, Ohio,
were married, and their friends arranged
to give them serenade on their return
from church. The pair got wind of the
matter, however, and left the serenaders
waiting allthe evening, while they spent
the time till midnight down .wn.
About IL o'clock the serenaders "smelt a
large MICE" and soon devised q way to
turn the tables. A dozen pairs of their
stout arms were soon bringing ties from
pile on the Pittsburg Railway, near at
hand, and in short time the little one
story domicil, which was waiting to re-
ceeive the happy pair, was completely
barricaded-doors and windows. When
the man and wife came at midnight.
they gave one look at the blockade, and
left to seek lodgings elsewhere-a rough
estimate OF the bridegroom being that it
would take him about day and half
to move enough ties to get into the
house.

Gambling u. Europe.

A Homburg correspondent of the New
York Herald gives the following, in letter
describing the scenes at the Homburg gam
bling tables
The ''roalette" is not usually played so
high against as the rouge ct n0iT, nor by so
good a'class ofpcople. Still there are some
high players and some distinguished ones.
At the head of these in Homburg is an old
Russian Countess-the Countess Kisselef,
wife of the former Russian Minister at the
Court of the Tuileries. She is an old lady
of nearly seventy, and a long time since her
passion for play became so great that her
husband told her that she must either
abandon it or him, and she chose the lat
ter and came to Homburg, where she has
been living ever since, and where she spends
almost the entire day at the roulette table.
She is cripple and unable to walk, and
every morning at eleven, when the game
begins, she is wheeled up to the KursaaI in
bath chair, and hobbling in upon crutch-
es, or leaning on the arms Of her servants,
takes her place at the table, where she sits
till six, when she goes to dinner, returning
at eight and playing till eleven o'clock
And this continues, week days and Sun
days, summer and winter, year in and year
out, and the old lady, who is evidently fast
fading out, will, in all probability, drop off
some of these days, as she has expressed the
wish that she may, between two spins of
the roulette wheel, and as the croupier APP
propriately announces "Le jeu est fait rien
ne "a plus;' which may be literally trans
lated-"the game is up and the thing play
ed out" which would certainly be very ap-
plicable to the old lady's case.
She is said..to have lost some 100000 of
forins, or about 81 100000, and the admin
istration count on her as being worth to
to them at least 100000 forms year.
Sometimes, indeed, she has so outrun her
immense income that the administration
has been obliged to advance l:er money to
keep up her establishment. Some years
since she bnilt a block of houses and open
ed new street here, which was named af-
ter her, but the houses have been sold and
the money all gambled off long ago.
