TECH INCREASE or THE GOLD SUP PI^.-The now gold field lately dis? covered at the month of the Am o or River wilTprobably ewell the annual production of gold to a higher figure than it has over yet ic?cliu?, und when we consider that, with the im? provements constantly being made in mining and reducing prOcesset), the supply of the fields already known becomes every year largor and larger, wa must expect a oontinued increase in the price of exchangeable articles . all over the civilized world. What that increase bas been here, with our paper money, we all know; but if we were to resume npeoie payments at once, we should, by that means, re torn to the prices of eight years ago. Lu Mr. Buggies' report on the coin? age, some very interesting statistics are given upon the subject of this in? crease of the gold supply. It ap? pears that the gold coinage of the United States for the fifty-seven years preceding that in which the gold fields of California were first discover? ed (1849) was only $85,000,000, while for the next two years it was $94, 000,000, and for the next fifteen years $665,000,000; and while the total coinage of the United States, Great Britain and Franoe, previous to 1851, was less than $1,000,000,000, it was, in the fifteen years following, $2*000,000,000. That is, these three nations have now in use three times as much gold ooin as they had fifteen years ago. Under suoh conditions, tho prices of everything must ad? vance, paper money or no paper money; and, as a matter of fact, they ' haye advanced in Europe as well as here, though of course not to so great an extent.-Neto York Sun. A few days ago, General James Longstreet called at the residente of General Hancock, in Now Orleans, and sent in his card. Gen. Hancock was then engaged with some friends, ladies and gentlemen. He immediate? ly left them to receive his old army friend, more recently his foe, but now again his friend, and after a warm greeting, insisted upon con? ducting General Longstreet into the parlor and introducing him to the company there assembled. The Btyle of the introduction was peculiar. "Ladies and gentlemen," said Gen. Hancock, "allow me to introduce to you a gallant gentleman, to whom I am indebted for an ungraceful limp, aod whom I bad the misfortune to wing in the samo combat." Although tho company was composed exclu? sively of ladies and gentlemen whose sympathies were on the Union side in the late war, the incident excited a profound and pleasurable sensation. GENUINE WIT.-A distinguished Southern lady, who is the wife of a prominent and extreme radical, re? siding in one of the Northern States, while engaged in pluoking the gray bain from her husband's moustache, was naked by him, ,lWhat aro you doing, my dear?" "Only carrying out your own policy, sir; exterminat? ing thc whites toe the uunefii of the blacks," was the witty reply. i The Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, a title which sounds ominously like that of military governor, has become alarmed, and declared that funeral honors to Fenian heroes, martyrs, or convicts, are seditious, and prohibits them in future. "Tho shamrock is forbid by law to grow on Irish ground." ^ A youug gentleman of Chatta? nooga, Tenn., married three months ago, received a present from n former lady love on New Year's day of a package of his love letters. His wife got hold of tho document flrat. and there was a goQd-n^r.ed cry in the} family for several dirys. i A French savant, who has urged the theory for a long time that a man ought to live to the age of 200 years, has recently died when only seventy eight. Thia ia au Instance of incon? sistency which mnst seriously dam? age his reputation. The Italian newspapers complain of the great increase of brigandage in that country, the brigands fre? quently putting their captives to death when ransoms aro not forth? coming. A few days ago, Mrs. Cook, in Madison County, Alabama, put ar? senic in her dough by mistake for soda, the consequence of which waa the death of the family-herself, her husband and three children. Miss Tyler, an accomplished yoong lady, who is a grand-daughter of the late ex-President Tyler, is now en? gaged in setting type in the office of the Montgomery (Ala.) Advertiser. A gentleman of French descent, living in Cincinnati, has a watch that has been in his family for more than 200 years, and is still in good running order. 706,288 persons have been arrested by the New York police during the last eight years.
