THE RURAL NEW-YORKER.

John Hoey has more men employed in his 
big gardens at Long Branch than any florist 
in New Jersey. 
Father Ryan, the poet-priest, says with a 
few exceptions American newspapers are im¬ 
pure and demoralizing. 
M. C. Butler, son and namesake of the 
bouth Carolina Senator, has been appointed 
a cadet at West Point. 
Oliver Wendell Holmes attributes his good 
health to an early morning walk or horse¬ 
back ride before breakfast. 
Mrs. Chandler, wife of the late Senator 
from Michigan, is living in Maine with her 
daughter, the wife of Senator Hale. 
Mrs. Carlisle, wife of the Kentucky Con¬ 
gressman, is taller than her husband, with a 
reddish complexion and Bcoteb-Irish type of 
features. Her manner is dignified. 
Johanna Wagner, niece of the great com¬ 
poser, has been appointed a professor of sing¬ 
ing at the Munich Conservatory. She is the 
fh'st woman ever chosen for such a professor¬ 
ship in Germany. 
William C. Howells, father of the American 
novelist, has resigned the position of Ameri¬ 
can Consul at Toronto, Canada. He has held 
the position for nine years. He is 77 years of 
age and now proposes to go to farming in 
Virginia. 
Ex-Senator Simon Cameron takes great in¬ 
terest in lish culture. Ho has just bought 
the abandoned State Fish Hatchery at Done¬ 
gal. He is also devoted to farming and has 
100 acres under Timothy from which he ex¬ 
pects nearly 000 tons of hay. 
Mr. Enoch Pratt’s check for $833,333,313, 
presented to the city of Baltimore, has been 
photographed. It is drawn subject to the 
order of the Mayor and * ity Council of Balti¬ 
more. It has on its face the indorsements of 
William Pinckney W hyte as Mayor and John 
A. Robb as Register. Mr. Pratt’s name is 
written in bold, legible characters. 
James Fayn, the English novelist, says that 
he takes no exorcise, smokes immoderately 
and writes about four hours a day, in that 
time producing an amount of matter about 
equal to twice the length of this column. Ho 
does not revise his manuscript, but leaves that 
to a daughter. He is a close friend of William 
Black, with whom he lunches every day at a 
club. Both are journalists. 
Mr. Joseph Chamberlain, John Bright’s col¬ 
league in Parliament for Birmingham, and 
President of the Board of Trade iu the Glad¬ 
stone Government, is quite young, looking to 
be not more than thirty-five His face is al¬ 
most beardless, but is not entirely destitute of 
adornment, for he lias a shurp and quite 
prominent nose, something like that of Wil¬ 
liam Pitt, anil he has a solitary eye-glass stuck 
against it a lu conventional English swell. 
His dress is so stylish and airy that iu our own 
country he would pass for a fop rather than 
for a great statesman.

pepsin. Headache. Dysentery, and a host of 
other aliments, for all of which they are a safe, sure-

or any other injurious ingredient. 
A Ssllerer from Headache writes: 
Atbr’s Pills are Invaluable to me, and are my 
constant companion. I have Iieen a severe sufferer 
from Il«ad«clie. and vour Pills are the onlv thing I 
could look to for relief. One dose will quickly move
