FooT RACE FOR OsE THOUSAND DOLLARS
We learn from the New Orleans True
Delta that an affair of this kind came off on
the 29th ultimo, on the Union Course, be-
tween Isaac t. Shute, of Tennessee, and
Samuel Banks Of New Orleans, both report.
ed to be very fast runners. The distance
was 100 yards, and the race was for n purse
of $1,000, though a large sum of money was
lost and won besides, a great many persons
being in attendance. Shute was evidently
the best runner, as he shot ahead of his op.
ponent from the jump, and led him in the
race to the goal, coming out five yarcs, np-
parently with ease, and in 10 seconds of time.

A BUSINESS MAs.-Among the many
truthful paragraphs nfloat on the sea of let
tiers, none is truer than the following from
the New Orleans Picayune:
The man who does not take newspaper,
(and pay for it, might MS well retire into n
monastery; for he is incompetent to come in
contact with man who does. Read the b.
ographies of our most successful merchants,
and il will be discovered that reading the
newspapers, and advertising in them, liter.
ally constituted the basis upon which they
erected their magnificent fortunes. 1t is
impossible to De newspaper reader and not
to be intelligent. The daily life of the whole
world is written down therein. Intelligence
by railroad, steamship and telegraph, hurries
over the land and the sea, and the editor
with his unresting pen, records it for the
public eye forever.
The merchant, If there was but one news.
paper in the land, and the cost of it was two.
thirds of his gain, he would be obliged to be
subscriber or retire from business. The
newspapers in this country is the agent which
every person consults when he wishes to buy
or SELL A man in this country may have
nearly all the merit, talent and cheap goods
in the world, and they will be of no avail or
profit to him unless the fact is known TO the
people. There is no other available way to
disseminate this information than by the
press. IL is only necessary to give little
serious reflection TO this matter, to be con-
vinced that the business man who knows
how to use the press is hound to succeed.

Who WILL ANswER.-The Lylchburg
Virginian, which has most ably and zealously
argued the question of the public lands,
says:
"There is no such question as distribution
or no distribution. The issue is, fair or I'M
fair distribution! Have the States equal
rights in respect to this property? Has n
slave State the same privilege in the Union
that Fresoil State has? Shall we defend
our own? The position of the Democratic
leaders in this State, as the matter now
stands, is the negative of all these. Will
the people follow them? Surely they cannot
be deluded in so plain thing as this; sure
ly they will not let the crack of the party
whip drive them into the preparation of an
act so absurd and suicidal as yielding up TO
our 'Freesol rivals and enemies this great
element of wealth and power. If Virginia
casts this boon from her the act will be re-
membered with Amusement and curses by
that posterity whose interests are more in
volved in it than our own"

TEE OLD wATCH.

My grandfather's watch is battered end old,
1t never contained either jewels or gold:
I've carried thee now for many long years,
And cherished by me, tho some gave thee sneers.
Although thou art thick, and not outwardly fine,
Thre' summer and winter you've kept good time
Five seen many rival all cased in fine gold,
Yet still prefer you for time, tho you're old;
Poor, common and worn, with a thin silver case
I scarcely can see the time now by the face;
Yet still can hear, by that old wheezy sound,
You must be repaired, oryou III soon run aground {;
And so long as L live none shall part me and you,
Save while you're repairingby BARTHOLOMEW.
And as those old hands pointthe hour of day,
Ittells me how time passes swiftly away;
For soon must leave thee, for none will be caring,

every city and village in the United States there

In cases of Scrofula, Ulcers, Scurvy or Eruptions
