THE A. L.,SHoTwEIL AND THE ECLlPsE.--The
recent race between these two magnificent
steamboats, has excited an extraordinary inter
est. OF the propriety of racing, we deem nc
discussion necessary in this connection The
officers of both boats fairly made it known to all
whom it might concern, that they designed .
race Every man who went on either boat was
aware of the fact. As a matter of course, the
officers, on their own account. took every pre-
caution and from the fact of their extreme vigil
lance no trips were, in all human probability
more free from danger. The case would have
been different had race suddenly sprung up;
in actual proximity, in the course of an ordi-
nary trip.
We had intended noticing this race at some
length. Some kind friend (who probably edits
paper for his private amusement and beneft)
has unceremoniously relieved us of papers which
We had use for.
We can only state general matters to-day
The Shotwell, all things considered, uhquestion-
ably made better trip in point of time than
the Eclipse. 1t is unnecessary to argue the
controverted point of two minutes time. The
Shotwell was under comparative disadvantages.
She had not (like the Eclipse a steamboat wait
ing for her with fire-wood, She encountered q
fog, and laid on bar one hour and thirty min
ties in the Ohio river. Testimony would go to
show that Captain Wilson, of the Empress, was
in her way at Evansville, and compelled her to
pass round him. The statements of her running
time, subtracting the two hours detention in the
fog and on the bar, would 60 to show her more
than two hours, ten or twelve minutes ahead of
the Eclipse
When we get the necessary papers, we shall
make the necessary comparison of time from
point to point We subjoin the only statement
we have
We cannot too highly compliment the cour-
teous publications and bearing of parties con-
cerned in both boats. Their conduct is certainly
fair and free from prejudice ....
We advise that all parties should waive mere
technicalities and petty controversy, withdraw
their bets, and be good-humored generally
From the Louisville Sunday Times We make
the following extract of the running of the Shot
well. The Times says;
By the following memoranda of her time it
will be seen that she beat the time of the

OF MERCANTILE KTEREsT-The New York
Court of Appeals, in a recent decision, declared
that checks, given payable upon different day
from that of their date, are entitled to grace.
In other words, may be treated as bills of ex-
change. As the banks seldom or never accept
paper, they are liable to be protested for non.
acceptance, 10 avoid this, the word g accept
aace tcaieed" should be inserted in the check
The better way is to date the check on the day
upon which it is made payable, underscoring
the date 1t is important that parties drawing
sight bills, and checks payable on a diftyent
dag from date, should insert sc lcifhom grace,"
if they would have them paid on presentation.
