Ex-Governor Horatio Seymour lias gone Into the 
Adirondack for hla health. He Is not strong, and 
was too tired to respond to a serenade at Lowvllle 
the other evening. 
General Ignatlefl, t he present head of the Czar’s 
Government, is described as very clever, hut not 
too honest. He sprang from the lesser nohlllty ( 
who are as numerous as sand grains on the sea¬ 
shore, and has had a •’ lucky ” career : throughout• 
The French speak of such a fortunate person as 
“ a man born with his hair dressed." 
The Hon. George B. Coring, the new commls- 
loner of Agriculture, Is the eon of a clergyman. 
The story goes that hla father was famous for 
keeping very fat pigs, a couple of which he " once 
upon a time” sent to a neighboring fair In charge 
of George and his brother, both lank, hungry- 
looklng youngsters. The pigs attracted a good 
deal of admlrarion, much to the delight and pride 
of the hoys until an old farmer remarked In their 
hearing, “Yes, Indeed, parson Loring do keep 
mighty fine pigs ; but seems to me he ought’er give 
ess to eat to his pigs and more to his boys.” 
[Fort Wayne, (ind.) Sentinel.] 
When about twelve years old said Mr. Gelsman, 
of the Globe Chop nouse to our representative, I 
met with an accident with a horse, by which my 
skull was fractured, and ever since I have suffered 
with the most excruciating rheumatic pains. Of 
late I applied St Jacobs Oil which has given me al¬ 
most total relief. — Adv.
