fifty yards, taking the le Al at his best pace, followed by
Ephesus, Babette, Brawn, ;Knight of the Shire, Pancake,
Ramboruugh and many others, whom, from the greet
interval between tho upper and lower ranks, we could not
distinguish. Except that Hobble Noble, who was one of
the last of, was in the fled light after running two or them
hundred yards, there was no change worth speaking of
until they reached the tuns of the land i Grief here beat a
retreat, leaving ten or a dews hones is &amuses so nearly
abreast, that it was impossible to say which was
leading. In rising the hill there were various secessions,
and at the Duke's Stand the nee was left to Bobbie
Ni.ble, who now had • decided lead, Knight of the Shire
lying second, and Lady Evelyn third, the neat lot con-
sisting of Babette, Weathergage, Indian Warrior, Rune

PARIS RACES.-0- cr. 24.

The third and last of the autumn meetings of Perim took
ghee this day in the Champ de Man. The weather was
very threatening, but did not deter a great number of spec-
tators trent assembling without the ropes; whilst the stands
were crowded. The enceante was even inconveniently
thronged, as in addition to the ordinary gathering of the
sublentin and gentlemen of the jockey and other clubs, sad
of the persons who take marked interest in racing matters,
a very comiderable number of gentlemen were favoured
with card.. Within the ropes there was an extraordinarily
large assemblage of fashionable equipage.. The Minister
of State, the Minister of War, Count de Morey, ex-Miuister
of the Interior, M. !former, ex-Minister of Justice,
and other eminent official or semi-official personages
were present. 31. Ernest Leroy acted aa judge, as he
did on the two preceding dap. The business on the
whole not came up to the expectations whack
had been formed of it, and great disappointment
was felt at seeing only three horse. start for the (treat Na-
tional Stakes, one of the most important on the French tart.
There was, as usual, no betting. No rain tell until just
after the races were over, when a tremendous shower but
over the c .one. The business was as follows:

been waiting on her, took it up and continued it to the
straight running, where she was joined b Plenty and Zer-
line. These three ran together to near the dilitance, when
Zerline went a little ahead, Plenty being neat. Penciller

The start was a very good one, and the thee., ran semi?
together to the first hurdle, when Reichstedt went in front
with Miss Burns waiting on him. In this way they pen-
needed to the back, when Bedford took the front place, hat
in a short time he yielded it to Reichstadt, and at the Rode
was passed by Miss Burns. Iteichstaalt made the running
to a little pa.t the fifth hurdle, when Me.a Burns caught
him, and they ran together to the last hurdle. Miss Burns
then swim forward and won by two lengths. Ail the hur-
dles were cleverly leaped by all three horses.

riIEPARATION or GOTTA PERCUA Eot UsL—.
Some of the lamps in which it reaches this country are not
unlike flattened cheese, double-Olo'ster, for example; others
are like cocoa-nuts in their rough shells ; and the first stop
taken with it is to bring these within the action of a ver-
tical wheel, with knives tired on the face of it, which, re-
volving rapidly. cut the material into thin slices, and often
expose the progre.s of the Malays towards the deceits of civi-
lisation, in the shape of lumps of wood encased, to increase
the apparent qulntity. . . When it has been cited, it is
boiled in coppers, forced into a hopper, where serrated
killers tear it into shreds; and it is washed in various
waters, in the *snow of which the foreign matter sinks to
the bottom and is removed, while the putts pereha float..
Being cleatised, and this is of greet consequence, especially
for *leering tdegraph wires, the material is put between
rollers, which partly squeeze out the moisture, and it is then
placed in a kneading machine, and ultimately is pruned
through rollers to fnrm sheets and bands, or submitted to
the drawin., mill to he formed into cords or pipes. At the
temperature of boiling water it becomes soft, will take any
form or the finest i iipmesion, and at the ordinary tempers-
tare regains the consistence of leather. Herein hes, its ma
be seen at once, its extraordinary value. Combined with
sulphur, it mar be made as hard as ebony, too, hut this is
not the condition in which it is most useful. For pipe-
making and for covering telegraphic wires, a further claw-
ins prjerra Is gone through : it is driven by immense pre*
lure, the pie-sore of four hydraulic pumps, through game
wire and very tine holes In a steel plate, and it is rolled and
kneaded again.—The Builder.
