indifference, aud mere mention at first,
people have gradually become interest
cd, aud finally excited. Men and boys
now talk s'horse," aud animals whose
thinly yelled ribs have given them a
"Auied" appearance, are o grain
ed" prance like colts aud run away on
every occasion they can obtain their lib
erty. Laboriug men, AS well as sports,
may be seen exercising horses, and
walking thoughtfully to and fro; and
though their demeanor is grave, their
looks are knowing, and their o
v~ersatiou decidedly racy. Pictures
of celebrated horses are frequently
consulted, sporting records examined,
aud the superiority of some fayorite
plug " to Norfolk, Lodi, Flora Temple
and Ethan Allen, in their estimation is
y tact only awaiting the result Of the
Carson races to be demonstrated. But,
seriously, the track has been put in e1-
cellent condition, the bar, seats, stands,
&C., as good as new, aud everything
connected with the track and all the ar
engagements, promise an opportunity for
the realization of rare sport. The races
will between the hours OF
twelve and two o'clock this afternoon
with horses in single harness. Be on
hand, everyoody.-Carso. appeal, 81 TO-

BURGLARS At ENPIRE.-Au attempt
was made to enter the store of Mr.. Paige
ut Empire, night before last. The bur-
glars cut completely through the brick
wall by the side Of the iron shutters.
The Carson Apped! says that it would
appear that they became frightened
Just MS they had penetrated as far as
the hinges OF the door. The space CHS
eled in the wall was some eighteen
inches by three feet, aud the instrument
used in removing the brick is thought
20 have been n chisel about An inch aud
II half wide, AS would appear from
marks left on the wall. The safe be-
longing to the proprietor Of the store
stood Just back of the door where the
burglars attempted TO effect their en-
trance.

BETTING Politicians in Gold Hill
and Virginia city have been quite lively
to-dsy-guessiug and talking over the
probable result of the election now be-
iug held in California. In a few in
stances small bets have been made-one
in Gold Hill, that Gorham's majority
would not be less than 6,0o0-she stakes
being one hundred dollars aside. II Is
hard telling or guessing what will be
the result, but we feel onhden Sor-
ham will be elec,ed-with the balance
of the Union State ticket. Majorities,
however, are too risky 10 bet on.
