THE MoRALiTY or TIRE RAcE-CouRsE.-
A writer in q sporting journal, referring 10
tho Last Derbyn race, says that (" with
scarcely single exception, I find tho whole
OF the press coincide with my opinion that
an enemy was in the camp, and that the
great mare of last year was got at.' That
great suspicion attaches to tho blue ribbon
of 1865 NO sane man dare dispute. Thaxy
grest favorite was made safe II, to all rea-
sonable intents and purposes, beyond dis
pute. Some years ago, they hung . poor
wretch called Dawson for poisoning some
race horses at Newmarket. Twenty-three
years back, on the confession of a stable
lad who had been tampered with scheme,
was discovered in time to save one Of the
most prominent Derby candidates. The
Rattan business is still kissing in one's ears;
the poisoned carrot intended for Fly-by-
Night, but administered to q stable-com
panion in mistake; seem like q thing of
yesterday; all Of which and many Others
are thrown in the shade by the doings in
connection with at least one fayorite for
the Derby lonors of 1862 He concludes
by observing that "to suppose that the
Derby was won by the best horse amounts
to nothing more or less that madness'' A
dispute which law-court will have to
settle as arisen out of the late transactions.

Asylum will be given at the New Opera
House on the l4th instant. The chief fea-
ture Of the programme win be concert,
which is intended to excel anything Of the
kind ever heretofore gotten up in New

leading citizens has furnished means to
employ the best professional ability in the
city, both orchestral and vocal. In addition
TO which, every effort is being made by the
influential ladies and gentlemen in charge
of the management tn secure the co-opera-
ton of all the finest amateur singers of the
city.
Other amusements of the most attractive
character will be interspersad among the
various mosceamz Of the concert, forming
altogether an entertainment as unique as it
will be delightful. IS, Tss ~
When, in addition to all this, we bear in
mind the great number of our best known
citizens, Protestant as we'll as Catholic, in
terested in the undertaking, the noble exer-
tions they are making, and the influence
they are able to WELD, we may we'll hope
for an eminent success. Indeed, without it,
it is hard to say where the poor children
would get either their winters coal or their
winters clothing, OF even their supply of
food. The war has left us all poorer, it is
true, but with much ivelier appreciation
