tH%Q no4g9o I.IIIta BOSTON. Oct 81
The greatest twenty mile race against time
that has ever been record I'd, took place at the
Riverside Park, near this city, this afternoon,
the conditions being that the Kentucky thor
oughbred gelding Capt. MCGOWAN, should trot
twenty miles within the hour, a feat never be-
fore accomplished, except by Trustee and Lady
Fulton, and by both of these the trotting was
on a mile track; whereas, in this match, the
( horse had to trot on full half-mie course.
The weather was gloomy and the track some
what heavy, but, as rain threatened, the horse
was started a few seconds before the adver-
tised time. There was an immense assem-
blage of spectators, and the greatest excite
lnent prevailed, the betting slightly in favor of
the horse. To the astonishment Of the larger
portion of those who had invested money the
horse won, accomplishing the feat in the I'M
precedented time of So minutes and 25 seconds,
never having made but one slight skip in the
twenty miles. After accomplishing the task,
the horse was but very little distressed.

EDIToRs. Notwithstanding the kicks
and cuffs, the slang and curses, the hard
ships and poverty which are usually visited
upon editors, there is occasionally a good
samaritan who giveth of his abundance to
bless and comfort them. Men climb to po-
sitions of honor and profit upon the shoul-
ders of the editor and few there be who
show any appreciation of the weary labors
of the author of their greatness. Editors
have become so accustomed to receiving a
stone where they have earned and asked for
bread that they are filed with joy and sur
prise when q w-traveler in the journy of
life bestows upon them valuable token of
his kindly regards.
Last week we were called into BENJAMIN
CoHN's popular Clothing Store and upon
demanding the cause of our detention we
were presented by the gentlemanly propri-
etor with a splendid stove-p pipe hat. 1t was
just what we needed and were unable to
buy. All our readers who wish us well will
be Handful to Mr.. Conn for his kindness,
and they will know and feel that one SO gen

An Outrageous Discrimination.

Congress, in its last hours, passed new
Income Tax Law, the Determinations Of
which are most unjust and outrageous. -
BY its provisions the income Of all persons
in the civil and military service of the Gov
ernment are exempt from taxation. The
Member of Congress, with his salary of
$1,000 the Postmaster, with his salary of
81, 600, and the Collector of Customs, with
his salary of $4,000 and the President of
the United States, with his salary of S2j,-
600, are to pay no income tax; but every la
borer, every mechanic, and every clerk, who
has appliance over $500, istaxed upon it
1t is thus that privileged classes are being
established. None are better able to pay
tax on their incomes than the class thus ex
empted, for few do less for the amount re-
celved, 1t would seem to be the idea of
this administration to impose the heaviest
burdens upon those least able to bear thcm
fourier.

A CARD.

EDITOR OF FARMER:-In reply to many letters
country, the undersigned take great pleasure in
saying through the columns OF your paper, that
our renowned preparation known AZ GOES
DYSPEPSIA CURE, is a certain cure for Dys-
pepsia, in Its worst stages. Many cures of long
standing, within our own acquaintance, have
been completely, and we believe permanently
cured. II will stop distress after eating almost
instantoneously, and enables the dyspeptic who
has lived for years upon Graham bread and the
plainest diet, To eat as heartily as he pleases,
and anything he chooses without danger or dis
tress, or sourng, or rising on the stomach. 1t
Is an infallible corrector Of indigestion and con-
stipation, creates healthy appetite, stops sick
headache heartburn, sickness Mt the stomach,
pains, cramps, or collie in either stomach or how
els, and sweetens offensive breath, as soon as
you take IL, and by enabling the patient to take
plenty of hearty food, (which Is the parent of
health" produces vigor, strength and energy,
In every trial we have known IL has speedily
eradicated Dyspepcia with all its attendant suf-
ferings, weak nesses, debility, and loss of power
giving instead, n proper activity and tone to
the stomach and organs of Digestion and we
confidently believe and as the published cortifi-
Gates in our circulars, almanacs and in many
of the leading Journals, from conyalesceut pa
tieuts will c0nirm, completely, permanently
and almost miraeulously "cure the worst case
of Dyspepsia in existence" We warrant IL In
every Instance. II can be obtained at all the
Drug stores in the United States and Cauadas
at 81 90 per bottle, or six bottles for $500
