SPORTING.-A foot-race, between heavy
weights, occurred OF Michigan street,
last Thursday afternoon. No extensive
preparations were made for the event and.
consequently, the crowd Of spectators was
very select. A gentleman of 9 livery" "
proclvities was Of the opinion that he
could outrun anything in the burgh from
PerShing's corner to Bla;n's. A disciple
of Esculapius had an equally exalted opin-
ion of his powers in that direction, and &
small wager was the result. The parties
divested themselves of their outer habili-
ments, and their muscular develop
ment was the envy of all spectators
At the word they took hold Of each others
hand, and struck into q sort Of dog trot
until they came to the starting point
where they parted and struck out in grand
style, amid the most tumultuous excl te-
ment. la the start the livery man obtain
ed an advantage Of near three feet, but the
scalpel chap went in on his muscle " il
such manner as to cause tho judges tG
decide the race tie. As the livery
man came up in great state of prcspira
ton, We gently remarked to him that g:
Rose, by any other Dame, would smell a

a PEDDLEE OF patent salve for corns,
bunions, etc., has lately honored our place
with his distinguished presence. He was a
sort Of public benefactor, going about doing
good. To any one who purchased a box of
xalve, at 81, he promised presents to the
amount of $40 or $50. OF course he
would losee money by this operation, but
the notoriety which he would gain for his
salve would more than repay him. To
show that the "fools are not all dead yet"
We will state that this enterprising indi-
vidual sold great many boxes, stme per-
sons purchasing as high as three. When
those who purchased realize 2000 or 5000
per cent on their investment they will
confer favor by making the fact public.
