BLOOMSBURG RACES

There was considerable concourse of
people in attendance at these races which
commenced on Tuesday last The course
was circular, and the very favorable wealth
er added much to the enjoyment of the oc-
casion. We subjoin synopsis of the hor-
ses entered, and the final results.
First days Races.
The following year old Colts were en-
tered and run for the Colts purse, viz:
B. R. Rhodes b. f. Mary Richards;
G. Kendig's b. h. Dayy Printer:
V. Beidleman's b. h. Brufe Printer,
On the first heat Davy Printer and Brute
Printer, both bolted from the course, the
latter being dstanced, and the former bare
ly saving his bacon, having run consider
able distance further than his chief COM
petitor.
On the second heat Davy again "hew the
track" and Mary Richards took the purse
without much struggling.
Second Day.
The following horses were entered for
the second days purse, viz:
Doct. VIM. II. Petrikin's q. h. Nenjoy.
John Derr's b. h. Bin R,,to, .
e. d. Cooper's g. m. GrGashopDer
On the first heat Grasshopper was dis
tanced; and on the second heat Billy But
ton fell with his rider, and thus gave to
Mentor the prize which would otherwise
have required more speed and exeruon.
Third Day.
The following horses were entered for
the Third days purse, viz:
John Derr's g.m. La}y ofihe Lake.;
Do b. h. BiHy Hutton:
Do S. h. Spiejala;
On the first heat, Spiebad was distan-
ced, and Lady of the Lake heat Billy But
ton by three or four lengths; but on the
second heat Billy met with former SINH
lar accident, and his charmer took the
purse, with sort of smile that plainly told
she was not in real earnest.
Upon the whole every thing went of
well. No serious accidents, nor personal
quarrels, marrcd the pleasure enjoyed on
the occasion; and with good feelings all re-
tired from the course, after awarding to
Noah S. Prentis's gray fIley purse run
for on three heats against the field

E5-The assertion that "the resolution
in favor of "a new man. was suddenly
sprung upon the convention, and passed
without due consideration" is known err
ror. The resolution was first offered by an
individual delegates; and OH motion COM
mittee was appointed TO draft resolutions,
who reported it to the convention. 1t was
read twice, separately, and agreed to by
the convention. The proceedings them
selves exhibit the deiberation which char
acterised the action of delegates; but we
consider this explanation necessary TO con-
trovert the assertion to the contrary, COM
ing as it does from dissatisfied quarter.

sCFsGen. Frlck, of the "Miltonian," calls
upon those indebted to him to pay up, as
she has just been waited upon by the sher-
if with an execution in the name of David
Petrkin for about $3.50 to recover the pro-
ceeds of Canal Boat which the Editor won
off him on the last Governors election; and
on which judgment was obtained on the
ground of trespass, in receiving the boat
from the stakeholder" He lathers the
Doctor with the hardest kind of brush and
soap, and promises in short time to pub
lish the whole proceedings.

MASUMlssIoN IN GEoRGIA-An interesting scene
took place in the House of Representatives in session
Milledgevle (Georga) on the sth ult member pre-
sented petition from Mr. Robert Beasley, stating
that some few years he purchased of slave trader
Negro woman and her sucking child-not doubling
but that the woman its mother. Subsequent deve.
Opponents however had convinced him that an mposi
ton had been practsed upon him the sale Of the child
that instead OF being born Of slave the offspring
OF hite from whom had been stolen or who
had abandoned it The object of the memorial was, to
move the Legislature TO change the Of the found.
ling from that Of William known in the bill of sale Of
the slave trader to that of William Brockett Beasey-
and to restore him the natural rights of which he had
been uojustly deprived thrill of admiration passed
through the House. Mr.. Beasey in the lobby and
hed up the child in his farer, preltier,
intelligent looking boy, need be desired. The
House went into Committee of the whole, had the child
IN their midst and every satisfied of his white.

Boggs made her passage from New Orleans to Louis

rarely done under u days
PROTOTYPE OF A VERY EXCLUSIVE EDIToR.-A
beggary upstart by some means had shuhied himself
into suit of fashionable clothes. The poor conceted
fool, pulled up with his swn ridiculous consequence,
was srutting through the Streets when he accesed
