A Remarkable Virginia Family 526 Years Old.—There is at present living, partly in this city and county, a family of brothers and sisters, named A., whose united ages amount to 526 years, viz: Thomas, aged 88 years; Ann, 78; Alice, 76; Betty, 74; Isabella, 72; Mary, 70 and John, 68. As the above was the age of each at the last birthday, about three years ought to be added to the total given, in consequence of the time which has since elapsed. None of them were ever married; and according to their own statement, none of them ever ought trouble to the family house, or took any from it. It is somewhat amusing to hear Thomas say: 'My young sisters are very childish and simple in the affairs of dress.'—Petersburg (Va.) Democrat.
