Captain Webb, the swimmer, is broken 
down in health and pocket. 
Henry Fielding Dickens, youngest son of 
Charles Dickens, has been appointed to the 
Recordership of Deal, England. 
Johu Jasper is nearly sixty years old, and 
the older he grows the more he believes “de 
sun do move.” Jasper is tall and very black. 
Ericsson, the inventor of tho Monitor, 
still works twelve hours a day, though he is 
eighty years old. In Summer he bathes with 
crushed ice. 
It was the Due de Moray who defined a 
polite man to be “ one who listens with inter¬ 
est to tilings he knows all about when they are 
told by a person who knows nothing about 
them.” 
General “Abe” Buford the “reformed” 
Kentucky horseman, was the first man to tell 
Zachary Taylor of Santa Anna’s retreat after 
Buena Vista. and “ Abe” and Zack” fell into 
each other’s arms and wept for joy over it. 
General Sherman’s eldest son, who has for 
five years been studying for the Jesuit priest¬ 
hood, will soon leave Woodstock, Md., where 
he has been for some time, and after visiting 
his mother will go to teach in the western 
province to which he belongs, 
Defaulter Polk of Tennessee is said to be 
likely to get $150,000 per annum from the 
Mexican mines into which lie poured the 
Htate’s money. No man with $150,000 per an¬ 
num will long remain a jail-bird, even if by 
an extraordinary chance so rich a scoundrel 
should get caged. 
Aristide Marie of New Orleans, is said to be 
the wealthiest colored man in America. He 
owned ma ny slaves before the war, and his 
income from the rente of his property in New 
Orleans is not less than $50,000 a year. Be¬ 
side this, he has a large personal estate. Mr. 
Marie lives abroad about half of each year. 
The Marquis of Lome will not leave Canada 
until after the arrival of his successor, and he 
is not expected to arrive in Eugland till the 
end of November. It is probable, however 
that the Princess Louise will return to Europe 
in August, in order that she may visit a Ger¬ 
man bath before the close of the season. 
Editors Beirne and Elam, of Richmond,Va. 
having vilified each other like blackguards, 
have fought each other “like gentlemen.” 
Elam, the Readjuster, who wrote the article 
which led to the duel, is extremely short-sight¬ 
ed, weighs about 137 pounds, and is a pygmy 
in stature; Bierne.tho true-hhio-die-in-lhe-lnst- 
ditch Democrat, who wrote the article that led 
to Elam's article, is 225 pounds, large and 
clear-sighted (physically of course), yet the 
barn-door-sized man was missed, and the 
chicken-coop-door-sized man was hit in the 
thigh, “onab” is satisfied, and all danger is 
over—even of the lock-up.
