GOV. WISE on HORSE RACING.
Gov. Wise Of Virginia, respectfully declines
attending the great Horse Show at SPRING
field. In his letter he says:
at has been said that nothing else than horse racing
VIII improve and keep up the breed Of fine bloodcd stock
am not willing to believe any such thing improved
agriculture and the wealth it produces will, in my opin-
ION, do Tar more for the horse than the turf did
Race tracks, with fashion for the sport Of racing among
inc leading propretors Of people, will impovcsh them
ana dwindle the horse 20 pony. The fine blood ought

friend, Alexander Reid Esq no more, Of Washing.
ton County Pa, introduced that cross, and commend
10 every man who knows how 10 make "a prc Of grass
grow whore one never grew before.
Unquestionably the wisest of Wises pro-
auctions. and if initiated by all our magnates
would discourage vice, and direct men in bet
ter courses than they are now pursuing. The
race transforms the horse to the hero and
man TO the groom, makes the latter just large
enough to care for the former, and he must
live simply 20 raise, train and run horses, that
thereby he may be famous and rich But
what say the owners Of the Blackhawks Mes
sengers, Hamiltonians, Morgans and Nor
rills' VIII they say the blood can be inn
proved, and the utility of the horse greatly
increased without the race VIII they fore
go the trots VIII they look at all the de-
morali2ng tendencies of our Fairs as now
conducted and say, yes, for the public good
we will f0rego the trot and content ourselves
with saying we have fast, and strong, and
beautiful, and enduring horses and we want
due attention to them; Ifsuch declaration
could be drawn from ten men who arc own
ers of the fast horses in Vermont, it would
change all the order Of exercises at Fairs

ofiiciated as President of the evenings per-
formanccs. One circumstance gave particular
interest 10 this celebration. and that is that
tho honor Of first suggesting that the electric
and magnetic powers might be used for tcle-
graphing, belongs to a citizen Of Brandon,
now dcceased-Mr. Thomas Davenport He
was brother Of Hon. Barzillai Davenport,
and native, we suspect, of neighboring
town in Orange County 49, Williamstown.-
We well recollect that Mr. Davenport con-
structed a machine, long before telcgraphing
by the electric power was attempted, by which
motive power was produced from magnetism
1t is now said that he constructed proper
magnetic battery, which is still in the possess
sion Of his family; that by it he did actually
communicate signals from room to room;
that he was in correspondence with Professor
Morse; that company was formed to test
Davenport's battery. and that he was offered
large sum for the right to use it that he
declined the price, and that before other ar
rangcments had been perfected, Prof Morse
had possession of the field. Such is the in
formation given to us. We know not wheth-
er the honor claimed for Mr.. Davenport can
be sustained, but the facts as they were should
be established. While DR.. Jackson and Prof
Morse Of America, and one or more Europe
ans, are contending for the priority of discov-
cry, We hope the claim of Mr.. Davenport will
not be neglected.
On the whole, the Brandon holidays were
exceedingly pleasant they will be marked
days in The memory Of thousands and tho
people Of Brandon deserve high praise for the
thoroughly hospitablo and handsome manner
in which their part was performed. Nobody
can surpass them

Generally, tho election has been very quiet,
and the vote light, though larger than last
year The exceptions TO the general quiet
ness were in towns whore strife grew out of
local interests or multiplicity of candidates !;
but at the time Of writing this, with list of
onc-quarter of the members Of the House, we
find that the aggregate of parties is precisely
the same as last year, the changes being bal

The PROSPER IN THE TERRITORIES
The Richmond Wing makes the following
noteworthy statements
Although there will necessarily be a re-
newal of the Kansas agitation, growing out
OF the $4,000 population clause, yet the cues
ton Of the introduction of slavery into kan
sas, or its exclusion from it, which has occa-
stoned so much contention and strife in Kan
sas and throughout the country, is closed
and settled question. and is of no further
practical interest to the people of either sec
ton OF the Union. And with the admission
OF Kansas comes an end to all controversy in
relation to the domestic states of the terrific
rles. There is not now a single foot of terri
tory belonging to the Union which will not
be ultimately carved out and erected into free
States by the force of Northern emigration.
Inc only spot of the public Territory into
which Southern men would be likely or will
ling to go with their slave property is the In
dian Territory west of Arkansas but even
there the moment emigration sets in that di
recton' the North will outstrip the South in
the race Of colonization five or ten to one"
Col Foney predicts that if the administra-
ton makes the exclusion of Kansas from the
Union under a free State constitution an is
sue, according to the declarations of the
C,n'o", it will insure its own certain over
throw. He says;
When Che people of Kansas peaceably and
honestly form another constitution, and have
It ratified at the polls, and ask admission in
to the Union under it, woe to the men who
by blind adherence to the English dnality,
may enaeavor, after attempting to drag Kan
sas into the Union as slave State, with a
constitution obnoxious to her people, to add
to their injustice by voting against her adj
mission as a free State, under constitution
ratified and approved by her people They
will be doubly condemned by their outraged
constituencies, and fall from the high stations
they have disgraced, like Lucifer, never to
hope again.

FIRE IN WARRINGTON The dwelling
house Of Aaron Prescott was burnt on Friday
night last, with most of its contents. The
fire originated probably in the kitchen, from
the cooking-stcye. The inmates were aroused
by the barking of their dog, to which they
think they owe their lives, as the flames burst
into their sleeping rooms when the doors
were opened, Insured in the Vermont Mu-
tual.

wAsHINGToN's ONLY MISTAKE,

The Paris correspondent of the New York
Times relates the following anecdote. The
late Washington Ball at the American Lepa-
tion' in this city, was the subject of a bon
mot dropped by the French Minister of War.
1t is quite amusing, and worthy to be noted.
The Minister, Marsha Valiant, remon-
s'rated with Mr.. Mason previous to the ball
on the inappropriatness of giving fete during
Lent, and asked if it was not mistake. III
IT as mistake, replied Mr. Mason, sit was
WAsHINGToN who made it--for 1t is his birth
day' and the ball is given in honor of the
event"
"Oh, that is it!7 replied the Marsha
then it is the only mistake he ever made in
his life 81
The Marsha was one of the first guests at
the ball, concession he made to the great
name of WAsHINGroN, for he is a strict oh
server of the requirements of Lent
