THE RURAL NEW-YORKER 
PERSONALS, 
IjftMKantaiMi gulmttsing 
The private fortune of Queen Victoria is 
reckoned up at $30,000,000. 
Monsignor Catkl says that Pope Leo 
XIU’s personal expenses are limited to $3. a 
day. 
Josh Billings has been “trying for 40 
years to find out at what time of life a man is 
most foolish.” 
Senator Coke, of Texas, says that prohibi¬ 
tion is tbe mania of women who think that 
babies are a nuisance. 
The new Minister to Liberia, Mr. Hopkins, 
was once a hotel porter in Pittsburgh, and dur¬ 
ing his services in that capacity prepared 
himself for college. 
Sir William Johnson Ritchie, Chief Jus¬ 
tice of the Supreme Court of Canada, has been 
appointed Deputy Governor-General of the 
Dominiou, to act during Lord Lausdowne’s 
visit to the Northwest. 
In a household in Buncombe County, N. C., 
a large dish of peanuts has been placed on the 
dinner table for dessert every day in the year 
since the lady of the house took a fancy to 
the fruit 30 years back. 
Mrs Elizabeth Thomas, of Pine Grove, 
Pa.,celebrated her 100th birthday anniversary 
the other day. Nextmoruing while walking 
on the railroad she wa3 run down by a coal 
train and instautly killed. 
TnE oiTlce of Chief of the Post Office In¬ 
spectors bos been tendered by the Postmaster- 
General to Wm. A. West, of Mississippi. Mr. 
West is a prosperous farmer living near Ox¬ 
ford, Miss., aud has been President of a bank 
in Oxford. 
Canon Farrar, the famous English cler¬ 
gyman who has just arrived here on a visit, 
thinks the American people “the most won¬ 
derful people on the face of the earth.” Can¬ 
on Farar is going to lecture to the American 
people soon. 
King Alfonso, of SpaiD, is described off¬ 
hand as a monarch who is “neither liked nor 
respected by any considerable portion of his 
people. He is a pleasure-loving King, brave, 
but narrow-minded, with a certain shallow 
brilliancy, which impressed the Emperor Wil¬ 
liam of Germany^ though it did not deceive 
Prince Bismarck.' 5 
A correspondent who visited Mr. Horatio 
Seymour recently found this honored states¬ 
man “dressed in a rough cut-away suit of 
dark material. An old-style choker collar 
encircled bis neck, held in place by a plain 
black tie. His large, brown eyes have lost 
none of their fire, and his face has a clear, 
healthful look.” 
Field Marshal Moltke, who spends his 
vacation at his country' seat, Creisau, devotes 
his time there eutirely to agriculture. He takes 
especial pride iu his lunguificent park, the 
beauties of which he is fond of pointing out to 
visitors. He walks regularly every day to the 
Kapelleuberg, a neighboring hill, where his 
wife and sister are buried, aud where he, too, 
is to find his last resting-place. 
Emery A. Storks, who died several days 
ago, was a remarkable character in the social 
life anil politics of the West. He was small 
in body, quite round-shouldered and emaciat¬ 
ed, und had a large head. His face was ex¬ 
tremely sallow in color, though it was full of 
intelligence. As au orator Mr. Storrs was in¬ 
variably interesting. His speech was strong 
and entettaiuing. Perhaps his worst fault 
was bis smoking; it is said thut he smoked fre¬ 
quently 15 cigars in a day. 
A correspondent, who has evidently given 
serious study to the character and thought of 
Cardiual Newuiau, says: “If 1 were asked 
what strikes me most forcibly about Cardiual 
Newman, what is his leading characteristic, I 
should be incliued to answer, not the depth 
and earnestness of his religious convictions, 
nor the subtlety of his intellect, nor the pro¬ 
fundity of his learning, nor his marvelous 
dialectical skill, nor his incomparable mastery 
of the English tongue, but the breadth of his 
sympathies.” 
The warm weather has a debilitating effect, 
especially upon those who are within doors most 
of tlio time. The peculiar, yet common, com¬ 
plaint known as "that tired feeling," is the 
result. This reeling can be eutirely overcome by 
taking Ilood’s Sarsaparilla, which gives new life 
and strength to all the functions of thebody. 
“I could not sleep; had no appetite. I took 
Hood’s Sarsaparilla and soon began to sleep 
soundly; could get np without that tired and 
languid feeling; and my appetite improved.” 
K. a. Sanford, Kent, Ohio.
