Great Stallion Trot.

1t affords US pleasure to be able to state,
that the challenge which has been pending
some days between the trottipg stations Ethan
Allen and George M. Patchen, has resulted in
a match, and that these glorious competitors
will go against each other on Thursday next,
(28th inst, over the Union Course, L. l.
The match is at mile heats, in harness, for
$1,000 a side, play or pay: and it will come
rain or shine. This will be a splendid contest.
Ethan Allea stands at the head of the ~trotting
stations of the country; and his spirited own
ers show great pluck" in riskipg bis immense
renown to the danger of a contest which might
affect his value, if unfortunate, to the extent
of perhaps $4,000, This, however, gives ev.
idence of the complete confidence which his
have in his pre-eminet trotting powers.
There will be a great attendance when Ethan
Allen and Geo. M Patcheu meet.-Porter's

asy~ The wise editor of the True american
seems to suppose the people of Monmouth and
Ocean are a set of simpletons, without sense
enough to detect his humbugs in regard to
Col. Wall, and distinguish them from truth
and argument. He shows the desperate con-
dition of the Coils canvass by getting up a
foolish story and a great "horse-bilP' to cir
cuIate along the shore, asserting that Col.
Wall is opposed to the New York Quarantine
being placed on Sandy Hook, and that Mr..
Stratton is in favor of it, or of such feeble tai
ent and influence, that unless the Col. is elected
to Congress, the Quarantine will be certainly
placed in Monmouth. Now, it so happens that
the people of Monmouth and Ocean know as
much, if not a little more, about this matter
than Col. Wall or the editor of the True Amer
acan, and the story is too silly to deceive even
the most ignorant man in the district. The
Col. and his editor know that all are opposed
to any such measure, and now whilst the
"horse-bill' is still circulating the faisehood,
the New York Commissioner have contracted
to place the Quarantine on or near Coney Is
land.
In regard to the talents of the two gentle
men. there is about as much difference between
them as in a dinner of ham and eggs, and one
of whipsillabub. The talent, the mind, and
the whole life Of SrRArroN is plain, direct, sub
%stantial, practical and efficient. The Col. has
the ability to write pretty stories for ladies'
books-sarcastic pamphlets against his fellow
democrats, and, perhaps, I" a sonnet to his
mistress eye-brow7-but as to any practical
use to which his talents have ever been put.
we have never heard of it. He is a lawyer OF
a dozen wears standing, without q cause-per-
hans. because he is one of the dukes and
Knights" of " the best blood, whilst STRATToN.
has, during the same time, earned his living,
and by talent and industry, attained his pres
ent enviable position at the bar. Besides, be-
ing an old line Wing, equally acceptable to
Republicans and Americans, everybody Will
know where to find him,--but the Col. has
such strong likes and ~fancles, now for and now
against Buchanan, now strong Anti-Lecomp-
ton, and then I" hard up" the other way, that
nobody can tell where he will be six months
hence. SrRArroN's training at the bar has been
such as TO enable him to learn the wants of the
people, and how to maintain them. The Col.
might make a very good minister to Naples
where there is little to do but to eat maccaro-
nj, and attend to the etiquette OF the Court,
but we think the people will consider he has
not such qualifications as they desire for their
Representative.

Assembly District.
FELLOW CITIZENS

FELLOW CITIZENS =
At the earnest solicitation OF many
friends of the Administration, as well as
of the Opposition party, | am induced TO
offer myself to your consideration as a
candidate for Assembly at the approach
ing election.
In coming to such a conclusion, ! am
fully aware Of the heavy malofitles when
7 shall have to overcome, in order to de-
feat my opponent but the knowledge oil
that fact shall neither daunt my spirits, 10
slacken my efforts, in using every fair and
honorable means in my power, to secure
an election. When we look at the won
derful results which were achieved at the
October Elections-particularly in Penn
svlyania-the home of Mr.. Buchanan
should we not be encouraged that the
cause of the People may also be triumph
ant in New Jersey.
Should l, however, be defeated, l shall
have the proud satisfaction TO know that
| was engaged in a just and holy cause
that of endeavoring to promote the best
interests of the People.
But, Fellow Citizens, should | be so
fortunate as to be elected, [ pledge my
self to go for the ~stricteSt economy in all
our State expenditures, and will use my
utmost efforts to have the ENORMOUS
TAXES with which orr Farme,s and
Prope .ty holders have been saddled by
the last and previous Legislatures, re-
duced to a reasonable ratio.
| will 90 to Trenton, free and untram-
meled. to legislate for the best interests
of the whole people, without being the
tool of any Clique or Political Junto, who
are always swarming around the Capitol,
asking for such Legislation as will best
promote their self-aggrandisement, ire
spective of the rights of the People, or
the onerous Taxes such laws may impose
upon them. .a,
| shall, at all times, be the faithful,
honest, and fearless exponent and defen-
der of the true principles of JEFFERSON
Democracy, and will, to the best of my
ability, support such measures as will best
omo the interests of the mass OF the
People, ard will ever be found the un-
compromising enemy Of whatever meas
ures may be proposed, by which their
prosperity may be fettered, or their liber-
ties trammeled.
In short, Fellow Citizens, | shall ever
be found the firm and steadfast friend to
the best interests of the Farmer, the Me.
chanic, and the Laboring Glasses. and
shall confidently look to them for a liber-
al support at the coming Ides of Novem-
Der.
I remain, Fellow Citizens,
Your humble servant,

Third Assembly District.
Freehold, Oct. 21, 1858.

Voters of the Third Assembly District, let
the returns of the approaching election testify
of your devotedness to the cause which is most
dear to every American patriot,--the preser-
walton of liberty. Let it be manifest, that you
are capable. and determined to discriminate
between those who are Influenced by right, and
therefore noble principles; and those who are
governed by the creed of a degenerate party,
whose power exists only by catering for the
greatest curse of our common country. Be
not deceived by a specions attachment for 10
cal interest, displayed to secure the support OF
particular localities, by those who desire and
labor to prevent the overthrow Of that which
is opposed to humanity, and detrimental to
our national welfare.
The Peoples candidate for Assembly, in
your district, is as much devoted to your III
terests as others can be. He is opposed to
the location of a lazeretto on Sandy Hook or
any other portion of his native State; or any
infringement upon her rights-whatever form
it may assume. AS a workingnap, he is iden-
- -
tilted with those who toll for their daily susu
t~enanee; and any measure, that has a tenden-
CIV to abridge their liberties, will undoubtedly
meet his most strenuous opposition. There
fore, as the Peoples candidate, let CHARLES L.
FLEMING, receive your suffrages, and as the
PEOPLES Representative, he will, in the legisla-
tive councils of the state, watch over your
rights. 1t is unnecessary to mention I'D this
brief article the names, and eminent quaIilca-
tions Of the Opposition candidates. All of
them are worthy Of your support, being favor
able to everything WHICH conduces to the well
fare of their fellow-citizens, and opposed to all
that is ~derogatory to it
In some OF CIR sister States the battle has
been fought, and freedom is triumphant. Let
the shouts of victory that are waited to us, in
cite us to energetic action. Do what yoa can
to insure victory, and your ballot-boxes will
shout success to the cause in which we are en-
gagged. And if each citizen of New Jersey will
do his duty in his respective district, she will
again become, what she was when the fierce
storms Of the Revolution enveloped her. q de-
fender of human rights.

Death Of Ned Forrest,

The celebrated trotting horse, Ned Forrest,
who at one time was the acknowledged cham.
pion of the turf, died on Thursday night last,
at the stables Of James Hamill, Esq, at the
advanced age Of "a years. This extraordina-
ry horse was once the property Of Gen. Geo
Cadwalader, and it is said, whilst ia his pos.
session, trotted repeatedly a half mile in los
and l;09; and that on a private trial, per-
formed his mile in harness, in 1926.
Up to the time Of his death, his faculties re-
manned unimpaired, and Notwithstanding his
long career of active life, be escaped the many
ills that horse flesh is peculiarly heir to, and
continued "sound, without fault or blemish,'

The Fight.

The prize fight for five thousand dollars and
the championship of America, says the N. Y.
Herald, which has been on the tapis for the
post four months, between John Morrissey and
John Heenan the " Benicia Boy, " took place
on Wednesday afternoon, in Canada and re-
suited in Morressey winning the battle. The
contest was decided in twenty-five minutes,
eleven rounds being fought in that briefspace
of time. Such are the results of the great
prize fight, and, taken in connection with all
the circumstances attending it, they are sin
gulary suggestive. Here are two men who
have, during a period of four months, subject
ed themselves to the severest physical training
and who in all that time, have displayed a
self restraint and a power of control over their
passions which, if exercised for a higher and
nobler purpose. might acquire for them a
well deserved distinction in an honorable field.
when we consider that the class of men to
which these two belong are of the most dissipa-
ted habits-men who have always sought
the indulgence of their worst passions, and
whose days and nights are spent in carousing
and in other carnal pleasares-in a word,
whose physical powers develope the worst
passions of human nature-when we consider
I'LL LllS, our WOuuGT ID tAClbcu db LIle. singular
anomaly with which we have been presented
in the case of Morrissey and Heenan Day
after day for four months, they have submit
ted to the strict regimen and treatment oftheir
trainers; they have each walked and run TWEEN
ty miles a day; they have abstaiAed from the
immoderate use of drink, content with the
small quantity allowed them; led a perfectly
ehaste life; they have gone to rest at an early
hour every night. and kaye in other ways
shown a power of self-restraiDt to which we
might naturally suppose such men were utter
strangers. The effect of this high system of
training has been to develop their muscular
powers to the highest degree, and when they
entered the ring and stripped for the encoun-
ter their physical appearance, improved as it
has been in this way, showed to how great a
state of perfection such matters have been
brought. Their flesh has been rendered as
hard and as clear in appearance as alabastor,
and the freedom and play of their muscles
denotes great activity and strength. And
yet all this is for the brutal, the debasing and
demoralizing exhibition of the prize ring.

Woeful News for Mr.. Buchanan.

The President appears to have a hard . time
Of it. Bad news flows in upon him from eve
ry quarter. The new Of the disastrous defeats
his administration have met with, in the late
Pennsylvania and Western Elections, had
scarcely been announced, when a voice from
the South reached his ear, of a sad and solemn
portent. We allude to the letter of condo
lence of Vice President BREoKENRIDGE, to the
friends of Mr.. Douglas, ia Illinois. This mus
be very notifying to Mr.. Buchanan, and thai
portion Of the Democratic party who stick tc
him under all circumstances.

GIVE desire to direct the attention of Parents to
the claims of the Freehold Institute. The accuracy
of scholarship insisted upon the moral and relig-
ious influences exercised, and the g%entlemanly de-
pertinent cultivated in the schoo, highly recommend
it to the patronage of an enlightened people.
The Institute offers very unusual advantages for
the education of youth. The Accommodations exceed
anything with which we are acquainted. Besides
dormitories, which are comfortable and pleasant, the
pupils have dressing rooms to which they have ac-
cess at all times.n
A competent instructor is at the head of each
department, and the teaching is done with great &C
curacy and thoroughness.
The whole establishment is warmed by Andrews
& Dixon's warming apparatus, and lighted with gas.
We invite parents who wish to place their sons in
school, to examine the claims of this institution be-
