L,i The OLENTANGY RAcEs.--0ur article the
other day of the spring meeting Of the
I0lentangy Race Association was not as
full as we wished to make it, and we have
since gathered additional facts in relation
to the stables to be represented here. which
we, give below. It. will be seen that, the
best blood In the State is to be here, and we
will be disappointed If the ensuing is not
the best meeting ever held here. There is
no reason why our citizens should not sub
scribe literally to make these races attract
ive.b In Chillicothe, each citizen seems to
feel an individual interest in the matter,
and the result Is their sport has far out
ranked ours. Should this be SO !? Are not
our hotel keepers and merchants interested
in drawing here crowds Of stock raisers.
who will always attend good meetings of
fast steck?. We think they are, and should
aid as far as they may the association in it's
efforts to get the fastest horses in the State
at their Park In Mr.. Crouse's stables are
Revolver,g, Little Mack, Moonlight, full
sister to Moonlight, and a tYo-year old,
full brother to Moonlight. In Mr.. Thomas

brother to Revolver, Blstian, Odd Trick, a
twO-year old fiIly from Kentucky Law

In Mr.. Smiths stable are Nelly Gwynne
Malcolm and Luxembourg. Mr.. Van Lieu
will have his entire stud of horses here, the
names Of which we have been unable to
learn. ~ ,.,.yfr,- ,al-r Ri
h Nelly Gwynne has beaten everything
that ran against her in New Orleans this
winter, while Malcolm has made glorious
record for himself. RevolYer's time has
never been beaten in Ohio, and we were

he was persuaded to buy twenty
three monkeys, at a round price, to
test their latent capacities for cot

I received nv monkeys. Their ar

mencing on the goth of May The
Grand Jury found q bills for liquor
selling, one for assault and battery,
and one for placing obstruction on

new trial made by Linn's counsil in

nation has got to be made sooner

into the manufacturers hands; and,
when it is made, somebody has to
suffer for the "original SIM inyoly-

THE MILLER OF HARTz.
A miller of Hartz, on long Summers day
Fell asleep in the shade of his mill,
And dreamed of a sure and speedy way
His Golfers with riches to fill.

Amiller Of Hartz, on long Summers day
Fell asleep in the shade of his mill,
And dreamed of sure and speedy way
His Golfers with riches to fill.
A creaking old wheel his forefathers build,
By the force of the stream turned round
For century past had driven the mill,
And thegrain fpr century ground.
BUTT happened this day that the brook was
low,
And the noisy old wheel stood still;
So the miller, for lack of fsomething to do,
Fell asleep in the shade of his mill
AS soon as he woke, he at once began
To follow the plan Of his dream,
And in spite of all his friends would say,
He turned the course of the stream.
The summer had past and winter was near,
Still the miller could grind no corn,
And the neigh bors who laughed at his use
less work,
He answered with bitter scorn.
The dam was Finished but not that year,
And the people had ceased to 60
To the little mill, whose idle wheel
Was buried under the snow.
To the miler's joy, the spring-time came,
And the torrents poured into the glen,
Filling up to the brim the pond he'd made,

FLY TINE. - Flies will soon be
along, when cows. horses and hu-
mans will have to suffer from their
stings. Mixers are liable to get
angry because the cows whisk their
tails and kick over the pals. Driv-
ers get furious when the reins get
under their horses tails and their
teams 90 to the right, when they
should go the left. A little tish-oil
rubbed over the animal with a bit of
sponge or soft wooden rag, will ef-
fectually keep off the flies, do no in
jury to the animals, and prevent
them much suffering and those who
handle them much growing - Ohio

irascible. A COW was so exceeding
ly disorderly, as the deacon was at
tempting to milk one morning, that

and he vented his excited feelings
in a volley Of execrations very un-

moment the deacon's pastor appear

announced his presence by saying ::
4Why, deacon, can it be! Are
