A YOUNG Italian painter, Signor Carlo,
in Paris, has been astonishing select
circle of spectators with some wonderful
performances in the way OF rapid execu-
tion. A member of the company
chooses n subject, and without mo-
mcnt's reflection, the painter proceeds to
depict it on large canvas, six feet by
three. In four or five minutes the pic.
turc is finished and repletc with details.
OF course, being produced at such
rate, the work leaves much to he desired;
but rs an instance of lightning speed,
combined with harmonious ensemble,
it is simply marvellous.

A Canadian idea,

A President Of the United States
really has q very cheap living. The
salary is supposed to be used, not for
the purpose Of saving something from it,
but as a fairly liberal fund for making
the social doings Of the White House re-
spectacle in the eyes Of his own people
and in those Of foreign representatives.
Porter house steaks are furnished at the
rate at which the whole animal is sold on
the hoof to the army. Vegetables,
flowers, and hundred other articles Of
family use are given to President Of
the United States, so that he may devote
his salary to rather liberal purposes

During the caller parts of the sea-

The body Of young lady was bur-
led fifteen years ago in cemetery Six
miles east of the village OF Alton, In
Chenago County. II was removed
last Thursday to the new cemetery
in the village. The Enterprise says
that when the coffin was ready TO be
removed from the grave it was diss
covered that the body was petrified
and required the united efforts OF
four men to raise it, and could not
have weighed less than four hundred
pounds, although in life she would
not have weighed more than l25
pounds. The clothing was decayed
and resembled a vailslike texture
over the body. The hair, which in
life was very abundant, was still in a
perfect state of prese ration. The
features were little shrunken and
the hands retained their position,
folded across the breast. Another
body, which was buried about six
years ago IN the same cemetery not
fifteen feet distant, was removed,
but with no signs OF petrilication.

the information stand, making a
close legal argument. He made the

desirable to proceed by an indicts

necessities of the case render the fils
