Newport, with all it's new fashions and
modern shows, still retains lurking fond
ness for the primitive sports Of an early day.
On Saturday we bad pig race on the beach.
A pig is shaved and creased, and after tri
fling abridgment of his tail he is set RAINING.
Whoever catches the lubricated porkcr can
have the creature for his pains. A large
number Of people, some in carriages and
some on foot, witnessed tho spectacle, and a
large number OF eager contestants went in
pursuit. Such is the hot haste OF the run
ners, that the one who falls in grasping tho
pig is sure to be run over and trodden on BY
his competitors. Yesterday the sport was
brought to an unexpected an early close by
the pig being run over by carriage, when a
man rushed forward, seized and imprisoned
tho equsaling animal in o bath house, and
was proclaimed entitled to possession.-N

ETD odge is in the habit Of saying that as

the fact that be admits is plain enough. But
be 10 IN fair way Of learning little some
thing about matters and things, under the
tutelage Of Kirkwood, and by the time the
canvass closes he will probably be not only
dscently posted up, but thoroughly convinced
Of bis own personal and political insignif-
cance. The consolation Of the poet, howev.

Vesuvlus.

A friend in Naples says Of Vesuvius
have sent you no report Of his doings for
some time, though at the beginning Of the
week the sides of the mountain appeared to
be in fearful state. Towards the Goth of
last month the crater in the direction OF the
Hermitage was tolerably quiet; it was per-
fectly white, being covered with sGlm0rino.
Towards Boscoreale the mountain WAS throw
ing out bombs, with the sound, as it were,
OF artillery, which made the whole crater
tremble. Near the Piano di Ginestre there
was grotto twelve palms in height, and
three hundred PAGES perhaps 10 length out
of il came . current Of lava sit travelled
80 rapidly" says the guide, ssthat was COM
PEELED to fly" The grotto is covered with
stalactities Of sdim1rino OF full an arms
length. 81 collected many Of them, but was
compelled to throw them away and fly. On
going up to the same point" says the same
authority, 81 found ten openings, the mouths
OF which were as those of . cannon. From
these were thrown out small stones, ashes,
bombs, and saeite, and the noise which 40
oompanied the effect was like that OF an
earthquake, and, in fact, the ground cracked
in all directions. The crater in the direction
of Pompeii was at that time throwing out FIRE
and hot stones; at the Fosso Grsnde there
we're twenty-five currents of lava; at the Ii
roni ten others; and at the Rive di Quaglio
twelve additional streams, which occasi oned
great damage" Vesuvius on that morning
was covered with so thick mist that il wss
impossible to perceive it, and oil distant OBJ.
jects were obscured. In the early part OF
the week there was.unusual activity in the
mountain. In the interior Of the two upper
craters great noise was heard, and red hot
stones and s0stte we're thrown out. On Tues
day last the lava flowed down most copious-
ly, and it was q piteons sight 70 witness the
small rrcrrieto-s, vhc -..chc: Is course

streams, which numbered perhaps one hun
dred and twenty four, ceased entirely, and
the mountain, which on the day before had
been, on the side facing Naples, - large bed
Of FIRE, was now mass Of black ssh. On
the night OK the 4th, however, two fresh
streams burst out in the direction of the Gin
estre, and are now running down Tore del
Greco like streams OF water. Up to this
time eighty small proprietors have lost their
land. One OF the most striking features 10

Poor INVESTMENT, PERHAPs.-The Chicago

less than usual were sold in that city. The
publication OF copyrighted expositions OF
"popular sovereignty" got up in the dema-
gogue style, With perversions OF history and
facts to suit the argument, are not likely to
add much to the value Of the magazine, as a
property, IL would appear, judging by the
