PERSONAL ITEMS. 
Garibaldi gets Ills mall once a week, and It 
generally averages six hundred letters and as 
many papers. 
Mr. Ross says It has cost lilrn $80,000 not to And 
his lost Charlie. A good many men would gladly 
lose all their boys for half the money. 
The center of public curiosity at Berlin Just now 
Is Lord Beaconstteld, and his hotel Is visited dally 
by hundreds of people to get a sight of him. 
Marshall McMahon has intimated to Gen. 
Grant that he may vl3tt this country a couple of 
years hence, when his present term of office Is 
ended. 
A daughter of Brigham YouDg has lately mar¬ 
ried a man who, during her father’s life lime, had 
the care of hl3 horses. 8he is young, pretty, and 
has $ 20 , 000 . 
A tall, slender, flne-looklng man is Mr. Charles 
Keade, the famous novelist, with gray hair and a 
moustache; a broad forehead, and a peculiarly 
dilatleg blue eye. 
Major Forsyth, General Sheridan’s chief of staff, 
has been promoted to the rank of lieutenant- 
colonel and ordered to Join his regiment In Wash¬ 
ington Territory. 
Mrs. -Jenks thinks Butler “ Is Just beautiful,” 
and “ when he smiles he Is perfectly lovely.” 
But “ when he sits up straight and tries to look 
Important, then he Is simply horrid.” 
Senator Bruce, Mississippi’s colored Senator, 
Just married, was formerly engaged to the daugh¬ 
ter or a highly respectable colored family of 
Cleveland, O., named Vosburg. The “happy 
pair " have gone on a four months’ trip to Europe. 
Mrs Swiss helm has been preaching a sermon 
for tramps. She believes that all honest work 
Is Its own exceeding great reward. We should 
like to see Madame Swlsshelm at an intelligence 
office trying to hire a stout Irish girl on those 
terms 
The author of the once famous Confederate 
song, “ Maryland, my Maryland,” is Mr. James R. 
Randall, now associate editor of the Augusta, 
Ga., Chronicle. He Is a native of Baltimore, thirty- 
nine years of age and a gentleman of polished 
manner. 
Mrs. Fry, of Oswego, has been smoking tobac¬ 
co altogether too much of late. She is nearly 
one hundred and eight years of age, but still her 
physician thinks she Is not old enough to care 
for herself properly, and has cut down her 
dally allowance. 
Dr. J. C. Ayer, the millionaire pill man, who 
has been at Dr. Russell’s Insane asylum at 
Wine,London, Mass,, for a year past, Is said to be 
gradually falling. Uls disease has reached the 
placid state, and he does not suffer, but his mind 
is wholly wrecked. 
Thurlow Weed Is one of the largest and most 
muscular of the editorial fraternity. This remark 
of course applies to his earlier days, for he now 
feels the effect ot time. He is just three years 
younger than Bryant, having been bora In 170 T, 
and considering hla age, he is In remarkable pre- 
8ervaUon, 
The lady formerly known as the Princess Salm- 
Salm, who Ugured so conspicuously lu this coun¬ 
try and Mexico some years ago, is now prominent 
in the divorce courts of Loudon, seeking a sepa¬ 
ration from her husband, Mr. Heneage, a prom¬ 
ising diplomat, who willingly agrees to a separa¬ 
tion, but demurs to the alimony. 
Oxford, whloh made Grant a doctor, is now 
about to confer the honorary degree of doctor of 
common law on Edwards Plerrepont. Next to 
the conferring ol a patent of nobility on that ele¬ 
gant and culchawed gentleman, nothing would 
probably give him more satisfaction than this re¬ 
cognition by Oxford. Carry the news to “ dear 
Mary.” 
“Mats, monsieur le prosldong,” said General 
Grant, “you will be toujonrs le marechal de 
France, while I am Jamals le general, but a plain 
ettoyen.” “ But ze fame of your grande battallles 
will make you always live in ze hearts ot ze 
pouple as ze marshall d’Amerlquo,” replied 
McMahon. “Ah, qu’estee qne e’est your don- 
nezing us; tally ?” inquired Grant. 
Edward 8. Rand, Jr., the swindling lawyer and 
horticulturist or Boston and Dedham, Mass., who 
fled from Justice a year or two ago. Is at Juraty, 
South America, oil the south bank of the liver 
Amazon, TOO miles In the Interior. He la associa¬ 
ted with a Portuguese in exporting rubber, gums, 
dyes, etc., and has every prospect of amassing a 
fortune, which he promises to oome home and 
spend In faying his creditors. 
There Is a touch of pathos in General Fremont’s 
remarks upon his appointment as Governor of 
Arizona. He ex presses lilmseli as extremely 
gratltlod at this mark of favor from the President, 
and says that hla lias been a checkered career, 
filled with much honor aud misfortune, and that 
he la convinced that the only course left for him 
la to begin life anew. Mrs. Freemont la said io 
fully sympathize with her husband's new am¬ 
bition. and she will share with him the honor of 
his new position. 
Mrs. Agues D. Jenks, the spicy witness In the 
Potter Inquiry, Is a woman about 35 years of age, 
with a good figure, blonde complexion, a full, 
round face, and Is rather good-looking. At her 
examination, recently, she was plainly and 
neatly attired In a dress of light material made 
to lit her closely, and wore a dark turban hat. 
During the progress of her testimony she ex¬ 
hibited a knowledge of Louisiana politics that 
bore out the remark made by her husband, to the 
effect that “Mrs. Jenks was prominent In politics 
In Louisiana." She spoke clearly aud distinctly, 
her Blight Credo accent falling pleasantly on 
the ear. This accent has been mistaken for 
French, but the female political trickster is 
acotck-Irlsh.
