purse will then be worth $3.50
There are other large stakes already closed for
Fairfield aud Broad Rock, to come off next Spring
and Fail, and as many gentlemen in this section OF
the State turning their attention to breeding of
booded stock the prospects are that racing in old
Virginia will steadily advance, until that sport will
assume the high position 1t occupied many years
ago, when the clubs were composed of the first
men in the country, and the courses were regularly
visited by the best ladies 10 the land. ~.

will have sufficiently moderated for the poor 10 re-
sumo out door labor, and think that $500 will be su
cient for that purpose. We have very little doubt
that the Collecting Committee can raise the re-
quired amount if they but make the effort, and
therefore hope that each member will at pro-
coed to the discharge OF that important duty The
relief houses have done great deal to prevent
suffering among the poor, thus far, and those of
