RACEs.-We learn that quite an exctable
horse race IS to be run over the Mountain
City Course, just at the Southern limits Of
this city, on Saturday afternoon next, at O.
clock, between two celebrated horses, said to
be thorough bred racers; one bay horse,
named "Robin Hood" owned by Mr.. Frank
Myers, of Virginia, and claimed to be de-
sGendent of the famous "Boston." The other,
a sorel mare, named Jenny Lind" and said
to be sired by the superior horse "Sir Charles"
of Richmond, owned by Mr.. j. Porter of
Frostburg, Md. The purse is 800 a side,
and the distance to be run is two miles and
repeat or in other words, four mile race
Much excitement and anxiety is manifested
by sporting men, and others in this vicinity,
taking an interest in horse racing, and we are
told a considerable amount Of money has been
stakcd upon the result Of the contest Each
horse seems to have an even number of back
ers, and each alike are favorites. The track
is one mile around, and at present writing, is
in tolerablo good order.
We have no doubt but many persons will
be attracted to the course to witness the race
in which case we can only hope they may
escape many, if not all, the evils usually at,
tandant at such places, and that too free
Use of spirituous liquors may DO dispensed
with.

The CANAL.-Up to Tuesday last boats
continued to ascend and descend the Chesa-
peakc and Ohio Canal, notwithstanding the
recent damage sustained by Dam No. 4. One
crib at Dam No A is gone, with part of the
guard bank on the Maryland side; to repair
which will cost about $4,000. The new
dam has been injured to the extent of $4,000.
The rest of the canal is not injured. Just
before going to press yesterday we learned
that boats were unable to pass Dam No.
4, and that it was the opinion of the General
Superintendent, Mr.. Stone, that it would re-
quire about three weeks to put the Canal in
proper order again.
