The father, Huger, though a widower for thirty years, has not married again; he is about seventy-five years of age, has been in Washington for eight or ten years ; is in the public printing office. Though seventy-five years old, he looks about as young as he did thirty years ago ; sprightly as a boy, has no gray hairs.
