SUrFoLx PARK-GnRAT TRor--"LAYcTrp THE
vIcToR.-Monday afternoon, one of the best
contested trots on record took place at Suffolk
Park, between the celebrated horses 'paichem'
and Lancet, best three in five The ettcn-
dance was not so large us many friends Of the
horses anticipated, but over 800 were present
to witness the trial of speed The horses were
in good condition, and attracted much atten-
ton when mounted by their riders preparatory
to the start Lancet won the pole, and at
the first trial both horses started off in hand
some style, Lancet leading. On the turn,
'Patchem' broke badly, causing wide cape.
The first quarter was made in 49, and on the
second Patchem' broke again, and thereby
widened the cape. The half mile was made in
l1la, Lancet still leading several lengths,
and though the rider of Patchcm' made great
efforts to clear up the cape on the last turn
and the home stretch Lancet came in about
two-and-a-halflengt ahead, winning the heat
in 2.254. Afteran interval of twenty minutes,
the horses were again brought up, Lancet
being the favorite, his friends betting 500 to
$50 ind $40, that he would win the second
heat and the race. The horscs started at the
first trial, Patchem' having the lead but I'M
fortunately for him, this advantage was lost
in consequence of making bad break ON the
first quarter; Lancet then took the lead, ma
king the first quarter in 354, the half mile in
LIZ, and winning the heat in 2.255. Lancet
broke on the home stretch, and came in about

Mr. EDIToR "A dream of Methodist APP
peared in the Republican of last Monday, where
the Methodist found himself in the company OF
the Father of Lies, and in the room with a
Quaker. The Father of Lies was about to fly
away with the Methodist, and take him to a
place of punishment; the Methodist objected
on the ground, that Methodist was MS good
as a Quaker. If the Methodist had any doubts
about his own case, he ought not to have i'm
plicatcd the Quaker; this is an unassuming in
dividual who attends to his own business, and
very seldom is found in the company of the
Methodist, either in this or the next world.

OUTRAGE AND MuRDHR IN CHESTER County,
PA.--The West Chester Times gives the partic-
ulars relative to the alleged murder of young
girl, named Kimblc, aged about 10 or | years,
and residing near Twadde's Inn, in Lower
Oxford township, Chester county. On Tues
day afternoon last, the little girl was sent on
mn crrand across a field, where a boy of sixteen
years named Reyburn, was ploughing. She did
not return that night. Early next morning
diligent search was instituted, and soon her
ifeless body was found in dam near by, with
her head crushed and mutiated with stone.
From the dam tracks were found leading across
the plowcd field to the place where young Rey-
burn was blowing, where marks of struggle
were plain, and where also stone was picked
up having marks of blood upon it. The foot
tracks represented those of Reyburn. He was
Immediately arrested, and denied all knowledge
of the deed, but suggested that it might have
been done by two negroes who had crossed
the field. But there was no tracks TO sustain
the story.

RATHER DEsTITUTE.-A schoolmasterin Con-
necticut was, on one occasion, examining a boy
from Rhode Island in his catechism, and asked
the following question;
"How many Gods are there?"
The Providence Plantation subject scratched
his head for while, and then replied;
~ don't know how many you've got in Con-
neticut, but we have none in Rhode Island"
The Corinth (Miss.) True Democrat says that
several prisoners confined in the county Jail
escaped on the night of the 10th ult. A man
named Newcomb, under sentence of death, re-
fused to go along with the others, alleging, as
reason that "the night was bad, and he fear
cd making himselfsick by the exposure !" The
Democrat thinks his conduct argues an absence
of reason sufficient to justify the exercise OF
executive clemency.
PRIVATE advices from Australia mention the
fact that the introduction of the Alpaca upon
the island promises to be attended with COM
plcte success. The fiocks were in good health
and increasing rapidly, while the country in
the vicinity of Sidney provides most excellent
pastures.

TIM HAnpERs FERRY INsuRREoTIos.-S
our last issue Old Brown has had his trial in
yrainia for treason, murder and melting the
slaves to insurrcction, and been found guilty
GU all TIE counts in the indictment. His trial
has been protractcd one, in which he has had
IL fairness and impartality beyond his antici-
patons, for Which he expresses his entire satis-
faction. Also, Coppee, his companion in
crime has been found guilty on the charges in
the indictments against him Brown is SEN
fenced to he executed on Friday, the I'd of De-
ceuber,
There is but little doubt but all the prisoners
implicated will be convicted. They have able
counsel from Massachusetts, Ohio and tho City
ot Washington who have done everything
in their power for the prisoners This insur-
rection has done more towards binding the
shackles OF the slaves than anything could
have happened them, We hope that the
speedy retribuii0n that has followed the per-
petraors of this enormous crime will prove n
warning to idle, weak-minded people, and that
lisa Democratic doctrine for every man TO
mind his own business. The Quixotic individ-
nal who would endcavor to fight the battles of
the world, single-handed, will soon find out
that he is contendiug against an odds that will,
in the end, at least prove his match.

GAs.-Arliicinl light being essential to all
classes OF II civilized population, it becomes an
important object to ascertain the hest modes
ofproducing it and the materials employed.
Every effort which tends TO simplify the mode
ofproducing light, and even the smallest abate-
ment in price which progressive discovery of
frcts in that direction is most valuable boon
10 the poor; every augmentation of the brill
hncy and whitcness of the lights is a welcome
addition to tho comforts of the rich, and every
Improvement which has for its object the in
creased safety to property and comfort to liie,is
II benefit common TO all.
We have been led TO make the foregoing re-
marks from a visit TO Mcssrs. Jcssup and Moores
paper mills, on tho Brandywine, having recent
" repaired there mill, adding several improve
ments among them, and not the least is the
erection at both OF their mills, by the Gas
Generating Company of 5l2 Broadway New
York, under Hendrick & Brothers patent ap-
paratus for the manufacture of coal gas, which
H. we believe, the best artificial light with
which We arc acquainted, both for comfort,
economy and safety it is bad enough for a
number of men and girls TO be confined in
warm machine room of paper mill, for IL
hours inhaling not very pure air at no time,
but rendered worse during the night by do
zen or two Of oil lamps sending forth cloud
of smoke from which are continually falling
lakes Of SCOT, backing everything that it falls
on and inhaled into the lungs of every one in
tile room. This properly manufactured coal
gas does away with adding much TO the health
and comfort of the operatives, wherever ii is
introduced it does not cost half as much as oil,
and gives times the amount of light, but it
Is not the mere cost of oil for burning that
must be taken into account, but the quantity
that is lost and the property that is destroyed
by the upsetting of lamps, &c. AS regards its
safety, it is used where no other description OF
artificial light could be safe to use.
The apparatus erected al Messrs. Jessup Il
MoOre's mills, is that manufactured by the Gas
Generating Company of New York, under Hem
drick 4 Brothers patent, which for extreme
simplicity, yet substantial construction and

carhonizing 100 lbs, of coal every hours; at
the average Weld of a. feet per h., would

that when not making gas, the proper temprc-
AZURE can be maintained by only making fire
once in 10 hours. and when making gas only
once in two hours. Each of these retorts are
