right to sue. and told the Justice thai
he would read from the constitution -ef
the United States. 10 show thata wo-
man had no right to sue in court OF

reading the Declaration OF Indcpen-
dence until he read these words: ''All
men are born free and equal endowed
with certain inalienablr rights such as
life, liberty. and the puysai. Of hppi-
aess..' The local then closed his book
and very gra,ely said MAY it please

A RACE IN THE LAST CENTHRY.-0n the 23d of
August, l773, at six O'Clock on Monday morning,
two gentlemen appeared at the corner of Portland
street, Oxford. Both were admirably mounted
one of them, Capt. Mncaster, on the mare of a
friend, Capt Hay; the other, Mr.. Walker, rode his
own horse. They started thence on race to
York-200 miles-without changing steeds. TWAS
such race as the Arabs ride, proving the strength
and endurance, as well as the speed of the horses
The first so miles were accomplished in six hours.
The two gentlemen jockeys passed the end of Dom
caster race course nearly together, early on Tues
day morning, amid such cheering as was never
heard there again till the days of the HolIandase
and Hambletonia. But Walker was at the time
sorely distressed, and his steed altogether broke
down when between Doncaster and Tadcaster.
The captain went ahead and reached 0usebridge
York, in 40 hours 35 minutes after his companion
had started from Portland street-thereby winning
400 guineas, besides wagers. The winning mare
drank twelve bottles Of wine on her journey, and
was well enough on Thursday morning to take a
gallop on Knavesmire-the race course lust out.

Mr. Editor- The grand fancy dress ball given by
the Marquis and Marchioness of Almendases, on the
evening Of the 9th inst, was one Of the most spen-
did affairs Of the kind at which ii has ever beonmy
good fortune to be present, The New York papers,
nd describe with raptures the ball given in that
city to the Prince Of Wales but only express my
unbiased opinion, when say that 1 doubt if it

a description Of: In .he first place, the elegant
mansion of the Marquis of AlInendases far surpass-

and stairs, all of pure white marble are OF them
selves perfect picture. An entire suite OF rooms
were thrown into one to form a Saloa de danse.
Then, as to the beauty OF the ladies and the rich
ness Of their attire oar Northern brethren must
come South if they would see true beauty adorned
with an elegance, wealth and taste, of which, in
their friged cline, they have not the most distant
idea, any more than they have Of the gracefulness
and elegance Of our Southern bellies. 7s
There were two bands, one in the salon de danse
and full military band in the entry hall below.

ladies, nearly all, wore white powder in their hair;
custom that prevails, beheye, at Madrao, JUST
at present, but which, to my taste, destroys the
beauty of the wealth of raven tresses, which our
Cuban ladies nearly all posses.
Of the supper it is but necessary to say that it
was prepared by that prince OF the culinary art,
Bernard, who ontriyals in that way any other man
this side of the Atlantic.
Dancing was kept up with spirit until late or
rather early hour next morning. I was among the
