EouESTRIAN EXERCIsEs.

EQUESTRIAN EAEttClSEo.
The evening has been occupied principally
by equestrian exercises, which, while they
may be of less substantial value, were far
more entertaining to the large majority of
the audience.
First, and least interesting was a ring Of
Jockey riders. 1t occurred to me as they
entered, that so athletic and active body Of
young men were adapted to too many useful
purposes 10 be endangering their limbs, if
not their lives, by such useless sport Be
fore it was concluded one was thrown from
his horse and severely injured, whilst another
came near sharing the same fate. The pre-
MUM was given to Mr.. MORROW.
For best Workmanship, after spirited
and close contest the premium was given to
Mr.. NICHOLS, and the certificate to Mr. Al
LENswoRTH.
The female equestrisnship, which next
followed, was something worthy of'admira-
ton We know of but few things in nature
more graceful than pretty woman, seated
upon pretty horse, selfpossessed and eager
for the race. In the present instance the beau
tifully caparisoned steeds, of unusual form
and action, moved with an air of pride, that
betokened consciousness Of the unusual
grace and queenly charms that sat SO
lightly upon their backs, directing their
course. The contest was close and difficult
to decide. In fact the only regret springing
out Of this interesting exhibition, was that
there should be any decision of merit be-
tween them. Both rode so well that the
universal Judgment was that EACH was de-
serving of a prize. The premium was final
ly awarded, however, to Miss NELLY Dun
NIvAN, and the certificate to Miss ELIZA
ORGAN.
During the day some young stock, the
property of Gen. w. G. HARDING, was sold.
The demand was limited. A two year old
colt, Ring Leader, by Highlander, out of a
Childe Harold mare, sold for $500, and
was purchased by Mr.. SAMUEL. 7. EIBERG,
ofKentucky.
To-day, Saturday, a large attendance is
expected

RECKLESS DRTvING.-About five o'clock
yesterday afternoon, the driver of wagon
belonging to one of the city breweries, reck-
lessly drove his horses over q little boy about
two and a half years old, son of Mr. E. D.
KING, city editor of the UNION AND AArERI-
CAN, injuring the little fellow quite severely
The driver was hailed in good time to have
stopped his horses, but made no effort what
ever to check them. Instead Of stopping TO
ascertain the condition of the injured child,
he playej the whip to his horses and drove
rapidly away from the scene of his criminal

A DEsTRUCTIvE FIRE AT BRENTWOOD,
AND OTHER ITENs.-A correspondent writes
us from Brentwood yesterday, as follows;
All quiet in this Sweet little village" but
all industrious. The farmers al psy put
ting in their crop Of wheat for fIftels subsis-
tence, and large crop is being sown in this
rich region The birds are singin their last
anthems of the season, and even the hogs,
seem to be busy preparing their beds for
winter, and the fine weather a stimulant
to all.
A very sad accident occurred near this
place yesterday, in the way Of fire. Mr..
FRANK WILsoN's large saw mill, with a
fine new gin attached, was burnt, by a
nail passing through the gin into the "pick
room," where il ignited as quick as
magic with the loose cotton-the heat of the
nail, passing through the GIN set the cot
ton on fire. His loss will be greatly felt by
the community, besides loss to himself Of
$1,000. No insurance. Mr.. WILSON is a
ACKNOWLEDGING man, one who strives for the
benefit of the country--so you may not be
surprised to hear Of him soon again running
his mills.
Yours truly, G. i. c.

"GooD OLD ROBERTSON COUNTY" The
Springfield Register, of yesterday, has the
following
The distillation Of whisky in Robertson
county, being the principal, or greatest
source Of bringing money into the country
much uneasiness has been felt for fear the
new law regulating distilleries would direct
ly affect the Interest Of Robertson county,
the business being carried on byso many, on
a small scale, the ready conclusion was that
none would be able TO assume the response
bilities imposed, consequently all were sus-
pended for a while. But after viewing the
law in another light it promises great
protection TO the interest Of Robertson oouIl-
"; It puts stop 10 the frauds heretofore
practioed, BY branding Ohio whisky, Rob
ertson county," and placing It upon the
market as first-class liquor; thus bringing in
disrepute the fair name Of old Robertson,
which she won for herself in this branch Of
business, greatly paralyzing the energies of
her distillers.
The new law requires that each distiller's
name be on the cask containing his liquor,
also his inspectors brand, thus shutting out
the possible chance of fraud, and placing
each mans whisky upon It's own merits.
This view Of the law has induced some Of
the leading distillers in Robertson county, 10
60 into the business on larger scale, with
ali the improved plans necessary TO bring
the science Of chemistry in practice to the
fullest degree Of perfection.

Vow YORK Money MARKER.

New YORK, Oct. 19.-The Posts money article
says the loan market is easy at 4@5 2 for call
loans, and soc for discounts. The PLETHORA Of
unemployed capital continues to promote the ex-
pansion of credits. The condition of the money
market is very anomalous at this season of he
year. contraction is always expected, for the
loans of the banks are drawn in, because the de-
posits which form IL part the basis Of these loans,
are diminished. Now the banks are increasing
their loans, and the speculative mania Is thus
stimulated in very immOderate degree, render
ing the coming revolution certain to be more mis-
chievous. in proportion as the expansion has been
reckless, and passing all due bonds.

BROKE JAIL.-The Springfield Register,
Of yesterday, says:
On last Sunday night, the l4th inst, WM.
PHIPPs made his escape from the Jail in this
place. He made himself key out Of wood
with which he unlocked his cell door, free
ing himself and companion, RICHARD
CHowEuG, to the halls of the buildings,
then cutting the large iron bars in one of
the Jail windows, makinghis escape. CHowN-
ING refused TO make his exit, preferring, as
he saws, "to come out by the door through
which he entered"--as he claims that he is
innocent of the charges against him.
PHIPPs attempted before his departure to
release others in an adjoining cell, but failed,
as we learn his key broke in trying to un-
lock the door Of their cell. lie had been
furnished by some unknown party with
chissel and saw files, with which to accom-
plish his escape-up to this time he is run
ming atlazge.
