nB- A glorious shower OF rain fell
at this place and in several of the
farming settlements in our parish. on
Sunday night last. 1t came in the
nick Of time to queuch the thirsting
earth and spur up the dropping plants.
which now look bright, fre>h and
fouri>hing. Truly, the season, thus
far, has been most pr"pitious for agri.
cultural pursuits. No wonder that
farmers generally are looking so CHEEKY
and hopeful 10 view Of thei' fattering
prospects. OF one thing they feel
quite certain, and that is Of a super
abundance of corn and potatoes,
which will do away with the unfor-
tuna,e NECESSITY, hitherto gripping
and bowling them down, Of having to
spend the little resnu ces they could
command, if not plunge into ruinous
debt, for corn and other provisions
for their home consumption.

Fashion Course on Thursday, as will be seen in our report in another column. Ow- ing to accidents and vicissitudes. the field was smaller than we had expected. One that did not declare had died. Two had gone off in training There were two oth- CTS, both fine and high bred colts by Ham bletonian out of good mares. who mieht have started but for the very fine appear ance and character for speed enjoyed by Highland Ash, MT. Hitchcock's filly by Ashland out of Highland lass After much deliberation, Capt. Rynders concluded that Widow Machree's second son was not suf- ticiently up the mark to go, and he paid forfeit MT. Felter felt much the same in regard to his colt by Hambletonian out of Virgo. As consequence, there were but three started, and one of them was of very superior order. She was bred at MT. Hitchcocks, New Preston, Conn.,, and got by his horse Ashland out of Highland Lass, grandam Highland Maid Ashland ought to be capital trotting stallion. He was bred by James B. Clay at Ashland, Ken lucky, and that gentlemen intended to re- serve him for his own stud, to succeed his famous sire, Mambrino Chief who also got lady Thorn, Mambrino Pilot, Ericsson, Brignoli, and many other noted trotters. The dam or ASnIanu was the thorough bred marc Utilla, by imported Margrave out of Too Soon, by Sir Leslie. After she bred Ashland, she became the property of MT. Alexander, and threw the race-horse Ulverstone to the cover of Lexington. Her daughter, the winner of the stake, has been in charge of Carl Burr, who also trained the colt, Brother to Bruno, who won the Long Island Stake Q year ago. He was small. This lilly is large, with great iber- ty and power. Her way of going is not the rapid beat of the drummer, but long, low, gliding sort of action, which flows on smoothly and gets faster as she goes far ther. She distanced the other two the first heat, and trotted it in two minutes and forty-eight seconds, with great ease, having 28Olbs. behind her.
