PERSONALS. 
President Arthur’s children will remain in 
New York for the present. 
W. D. Howells, the novelist, is ill at Bel¬ 
mont, Mass., from overwork. 
Attorney-Genera 1 and Mrs. MneVeaprh have 
been visiting Mrs. Garfield at Cleveland. 
Gen. Simon Cameron is going to spend the 
Winter in the Citv of Mexico, and w ill leave 
his Pennsylvania home in a few weeks. 
The charming Princess of Wales has just 
passed her thirty-seventh birthday, and Maud, 
her youngest child, has attained her twelfth. 
The young Duke of Portland, one of the 
wealthiest of English noblemen, is said to 
have an income of about $950,000 a year ; and 
his predecessor, the eccentric Duke, left him 
$7,350,000 in cash. 
Sir Thomas Gladstone, the English Prime 
Minister’s eldest brother, has returned twenty

and has promised a remission of ten per cent, 
next year, whether the crops be good or bad. 
“ The threatened litigation between the 
Baroness Burdett-Coutts and her relatives 
has been averted. All the counsel consulted 
considered that she married a foreigner, 
which she could not do under the terms of the 
will of the Duchess of St. Albans w ithout re¬ 
nouncing her interest in the Coutts Bank. 
The Baroness has therefore rescinded her half 
share in the bank, but w ill continue to re¬ 
ceive a small annual allowance as compensa¬ 
tion.
