ly crowded by very fashionable and in
telligent audience, and all went away
fully convinced that that there are
more things in heaven and earth than
are dreamt of in Comstock's philosophy"
which is probably what Shakespeare in
tended to say. Several of the feats of
magic, ''so-called," performed by Prof. Ma
callister, were truly wonderful, and "up
to the present writing" remain unex-
planned. Had he not expressly disclaim-
ed the assistance of "Auld Satan, Devil,
Nick, or Clootie," doubtless some of the
tricks might be accounted for, but as
Macallister is certainly truthful man
and has no partnership with "the Father
of Lies" we must take him at his word
and believe that all his tricks were SIM
ply exhibitions of "sleight of hand"
The spiritualistic table and the "couch

wonder and are most difficult of expla-
nation. Go and see him and You will

FooT RAcE-The recent stock exhf
bition on the island and the frequent
trials of speed for sweepstakes seems 70
have infused the racing spirit into more
people than horse jockeys. A day or
two since q number of lovers Of sport
rspaired to the Fair Grounds with view
of testing the merits of their respective
pedal extremities, After some consulta-
lion it was decided to make o trial, when
the tollawing entries were made for q

Capt. Craig, James Reed and Frank
Shapley, ex-policeman. All arrange

The WEATHER.-We wore again visit
ed yesterday by sunny, cloudless sky
except that which the smoke from theu
sand chimneys spreads over our city
and fine healthful atmosphere prevail
ed all the day long. But the night was
manifestly damp The haze began to
feel its way into the city alta early hour
in the evening. These foggy nights are
apt to raise rebellion in our systems
They break out i'll our interiors aswell as
in the bowels of the land. We suggest
therefore that onr community should not
expose themselves by sleeping with open
windows, but rather guard against the
consumptive tendency OF our nightly
miasmatic atmosphere by keeping their
bodies comfortably covered, and obtain
ing ventilation from some other source
than open windows.

IMPORTANT TO BACHELORS.-Among
the latest inventionsis an ingenious ar
engagements by which buttons may be
attached to any garment without the
use of needle and thread. This ought to
make the inventors fortune. Bachelors
who have no wives to depend upon for
seeing them properly buttoned, and
wives with irritable husbands, whose
tempers become affected by the absence
of buttons on their clothing, must but
appreciate so useful an improvement.
