THE RACE ToDAY.-LiAle Emily and Charmer
are entered for the four-mile to-day. True it
is that the entry not large, in point of number,
rs we could wish; nevertheless both mares are
noted in racing annals, and their performances
have been such that unless some unforeseen event
should occur, there will be fine race between
them. As soon as the entries were announced
yesterday afternoon, offers were made to back
Chamer at two to one on her, and no takers but
last evening we noticed that Little Emy's friends
had rallied and reduced the odds to about five to
three against her. We have high opinion of
Charmer, but looking at the change of weather and
the present state of the course in consequence of
the heavy rain of yesterday, we cannot be quite
charmed into the belief that, because she has made
some splendid performances, she is certain to beat
Little Emily. The race, we fancy, will be closer
affair than some sanguine people think, and after
yesterdays exhibition of crack filly being tee
totally used up, we do MT see why the same thing
may not again occur We have an idea that in
mud-larking the Wagner stock is fully eqnal-nay
superior-to the Glencoe stock Be the result what
it may, we hope there will be strong muster on
the ground, for it is pretty certain that the race
will be exceedingly interesting.

American rhou.h,. on European Revelations.

ee~~@~e~~~~> eAs~s>oAsS
Such is the deceiving title under which BLACK.
wood smuggles into circulation hodge-pooee OF
foreign and political metaphysics that wouIo SUI
the palate of Metternich or Nicholas OF Russia.
If the writer is really an American, he should have
been honest, and headed his article, can Ameri-
cans Thoughts on European Revolutions" and
not have ambitiously assumed to call his thoughts
the thoughts of the whole American people. If he
is an Engishman, it is sheer trickery to call his
thoughts American, because he happens to write
from Boston.
The Magnus Apollo of this author, whoever or
whatever he may be, seems to be the Count de
Maistre-a man whose thoughts are antiquated,
and whose fluctuations are disregarded even IN ST.
Petersburg. The Piedmontese Mentor, as his adml-
rer STYLES him, talks after this fashion: God, having
reserved to himself the formation of sovereignties
lets us learn the fact from observing that He never
commits to the multitude the choice of its masters
He only employs them in those grand movements
which decide the fate of empires, passive nstru-
ments. Never do they get what they want-they
always take-they never choose. There is, if one
may SO speak, an artifce of Providence by which
the means a people take to gain certain object
are precisely those Providence employs to put it
from them" What profound political philosophy
is embraced in these words Who now will pre-
tend to sheer at the Prince" of the Florentine
statesmen since the prophet Of legitimacy has rep
resented his abstraction of Providence as so per-
fectly Machiavelan in its conduct and intentions
Yet this Count de Maistre passed for very pious
man, as well as for wise politician. To judge
from the idea he entertained of Providence, he had
about as good claim to the one character as to
the other.
Nevertheless, Ernest-the Boston correspondent
of Backwood-is not at all shocked by such alb
surdities. He adopts them all as good and true
thoughts. No wonder, however, if he considers
his own thoughts American, that he should think
de Maistre's thoughts true.
All those who look with disfavor on democratic
institutions nightly puzzled in trying to explain
the orderly prosperity of the United States. When
these persons in their violent rhodomontade against
recent revolutions in Europe, catch their breath for

Louisiana Association Jockey Club Races-Eclipse
Course, Carrollton.

Course Carrollton.
FOURTH DAY--Friday, March 3O.-The three
mile race between Topaz and Error was altogether
resided affair, and is easily described Yester-
day morning. in referring TO this then approaching
race, we remarked: :" Those who are dazzled by
the brilliancy of the Topaz may, by chance, find
that in making sanguine calculations as to the re-
suit, they were decidedly in Error" The result
of the race fully justified our remark The rain on
Thursday night, and that which commenced about
O'Clock yesterday, falling in torrents, altered the
appearance of things very much, making the course
which previously was in beautiful condition, very
muddy and heavy. This, we consider, was deci-
dedly favorable to the colt but some people were
of opinion that Topaz could shine through mud as
well as need be- and that Error would not be bene-
fitted by the change. They were decidedly de-
ceived.
Atstartng, three to one was offered on Topaz, the
party being very confident of winning. The Error
party, dreadng the speed Of the ly, fought rather
shy, and but little was done. The two came to
the post in fine condition. but Error it seemed TO us
was decidedly superior in appearance to the flly.
Error led off at rafting rate, kept up the speed
the whole three miles, and came in an easy winner
in 6:l5s. Unnecessary Topaz might have been dis
tanced, but the rider of Error was so confident of
winning that he logged along at an easy gallop,
and suffered the fly to come up when within
few strides of home, and narrowly escaped losing
the heat thereby.
The tune was now essentially changed, and FIVE
to one on Error was freely offered, but without any
considerable transactions The two started in
good STYLE the FLY having slightly the lead. This.
however, did MT last long, for Error soon ran up,
passed the FLY, kept enlarging the gap between
them with every stride, and disanced her with all
the ease imaginable, running the heat in 6:lei.
Thus ended the race, for running which Topaz
never had chance, the horse beating her from
the start, and we do not believe she would have
