Generalization of the Race-Course.

Ir seems to be generally accepted that
the race-course improves horses and de-
moralizes men; and among the professional
horse men Hiram Woodruff is pointed to
with pride as the man who was honest,
l hope, however for the credit of this
noble animal, and of our own race, that
he is not the only exception; and further
hope that the present tendencies will grow
stronger, and will prevail. These tenden-
cies are shown in that such men as Mr..
Bonner and Others keep, in their own
stables and for their own use, some of the
fastest horses in the world, which are never
used as decoys for the betting-ring, These
tendencies are also shown in that this class
of horses is more and more in demand for
gentelmen's use solely as is to be seen on
fine autumn afternoons, hy the hundred
or thousand, on the broad avenue which
leads to Macomb's Dam, 1t is estimated
that there are, in New York City alone,
over ten thousand horses noted for speed,
which are worth from one thousand dol.
lars upward to thirty.three thousand dol.
lars--the price paid for Dexter.
Butit may be we'll to caution our young
men-and our old ones-against vice
which besets some, and may easily spread.
1t is the mania for buying trotters, in the
expectation that, now and then, they will
prove prize like Flora Temple or Dexter.
This is worse than useless, 1t can be
shown, as l believe, that these horses,
which once might have been bought for
song, have cost come body all they at last
brought. 1t has taken five or more years
Of constant training and outlay, and vast
deal of time and thought, to make such
horses what they are; and only one out of
hundred of these which are 80 treated is
great prize. A young man who begins
to act upon this theory is almost sure to
be ruined. No, gentlemen must and will
own this fine quality of horse-but as
gentlemen, not as Jockeys if, by chance,
such an one finds himself the possessor of
prize, let him call it piece of luck,
and not try tc do it again, and not expect
it at all. A gentleman will enjoy his
horse, not the money he can make out of
it. But there is danger too, for the
farmers--the ordinary farmers-in this
matter. Some of them already are pos
sessed with a great desire to grow a great
horse, and, in attempting to crafty it,
they may neglect the real business of theil
farms; they may get into habits Of loung'
ing away from their homes; and they
may fall into grog-shop society, Then
good-by to honor, comfort, success, oil
wealth,-7hc Horse Gro'cers, BY c. w

MARRYING AND UNMARRY1NG.-I is
not in the facility with which people get
divorced, but in the facility with which
they get married, that the mischief inheres,
1t is not the unmarrying, but the marry
ing-the marrying without proper consids
Grafton, marrying from wrong motives,
with false views and nnfounded expecta,.
tions, marrying without knowing who or
what-that causes all the disturbance.
And there is altogether too much of such
marrying. When man and woman mar
ry all over and clean through, every facul
ty and sentiment of each finding its COM
plement and counterpart in the other, sep
aration is impossible. But when they
are only half married, when only third
part of them is married, when they ara
married only in their instincts, or their
imaginations, or their fortunes, the un-
married part Of both is very apt to get un.
easy and rebel, and they find a Bedlam
where they look for Elysium. Liberal

A FISH SToRY,-The following, Of our
new Secretary Of State, is not without
point to those who know that gentleman
and the refined hospitality that has always
characterized him. 1t is related that some
years ago he became involved in a busi.
ness affair that gave him some trouble.
He had many sessions with his counsel,
and neither of them could see any way
out Of the difficulty except by lawsuit.
Finally a thought struck him, and as it
did 50 he jumped from his chair 80 violents
ly as to overturnit, struck his heels togeths
er twice while in the air, and slapped bis
thigh so violently with his right hand as
to raise blister.
"Eurekal !" he shouted.
"What is II" asked the lawyer, who
was surprised at this demonstration.
81 have it," replied the Knickerbocker.
81 will invite them to dinner-my oppo.
nent and his lawyer. You and l will do
the honors, and if we don't bring them to
terms there is nothing that can."
The dinner was given, and worked to
charm. The affair was settled without
recourse to the law, and Mr.. Fish and the
other party were ever after the best of
friends. s.-DRAwER, Ha'per'S Magazine.

BEECHER ON BoREs. Few of the
great preachers Of the country are so felcs
itous in illustrating their subjects with
appropriate anecdotes as the Rev, Henry
Ward Beecher. And like all men Of gen.
uine humor, he has the knack to say
very droll things with face Of the most
impassive gravity, At the National
Christian Convention held last year in this
city he was called upon TO address that
body on How to Conduct PIayer>meet-
ings," and for an hour held the audience
with mingliug of fun and pathos and
sentiment and wisdom such as one seldom
enjoys, After the adjournment cf the
morning session about fifty men-mostly
young, and identified with the hardest Of
Christian work in the most unpromising
fields-gathered about him, in order to
wrest from him some Of the secrets of his
success, The results were too valuable
to pass without entering record. The
questioning lasted nearly an hour and
half. During that time Mr.. Beecher was
in the centre Of densely packed crowd,
and not given moments rest. The ques-
tions were sometimes rambling, but nearly
all tended to uncover an inward expert
ence that others besides those then present
would be glad to see. Omitting, of course
many things, the questions and answers
were very nearly as follows:
"Mr. Beecher, what do you do with
bores in your prayer meeting I"
"Well, l try to be patient with them.
Christ, VIXEN He was on earth, was troub-
led with bores, and l say to myself, why
should not be l try to educate them.
and make something out of them. The
man who is bore now may become an
effective worker if one is only patient, -

To CLEAN PAINT. There is a very
simple method to clean most any kind of
paint that has become dirty, and if our
housewives should adopt it, it would save
them great deal oftrouble. Provide a
plate with some Of the best whiting to be
bad, and have ready some clean warm
water, and piece Of flannel which dip
into the water, and squeeze nearly dry /;
then take as much whiting as will adhere
to it apply it to the painted surface,
when little rubbing will instantly remov e
any dirt or grease. After which, wash
the part well with clean water, rubbing
it dry with soft chamois Paint thus
cleaned looks as we'll as when first laid on
without any injory to the most delicate
colors. 1t is far better than using soap,
and does not require more than half the
time and labor.-Coach.makerS' Journal
