VIII Grants Administration bi
al Success on. "a Failure?

al success or "a Failure
From the NJ Y Herald.
Everything in the machinery of the new
administration seems to be running smoothly.
The guillotine, at the rate of about one hun
dred per day, is taking off the heads of the
Johnson office holders and the active Repub.,
iican politicians are coming in for fair share
otthe spoils. General Grant has shown his
disposition in many things to cultivate har-
mony with the Senate, and especially in his
approval of the equivocal modification between
the two houses of the Tenure Of Office law.
In his inaugural and in his appointments, in
Guiding soldiers and civilians, patriotic female
Union spies in the war, repentant Rebels, and
citizens of African descent, vulgarly called
pieeers, he has done something in behalf of
ali the cliques and factions OF the dominant
party, and has particularly tickled the fancy
Of Wendell Philips on his latest ultimatum
of the equal rights Of the black man touch
inc the Offices. In a corresponding degree the
Democracy, rank and file, red hot and luke
warm. have become disgusted with the doiugs
Al washington; so that General Grant now
marks the dividing lines between the two
psrties even more distinctly than he did as
the Republican candidate on the Chicago plat
form.

Bas% The markets are now well sup
piled with the most wholesome of our
fruits, blackberries. Since the art and
skill of fruit culturists has been devot-
ed to the improvement of the blackber-
ry, it has become one of the most
delicious of our fruits. The famous
Kittatinny Blackberry was first intro
duced to the public by Jerseyman
the Rev. Clarkson Dunn, the venerable
Rector of Christ Church, Elizabeth
port. He first obtained them by Guilt
waiting from slips, obtained from one of
his parishioners when he was Rector OF
Christ Church, ut Newton. Mr.. Dunn
on one occasion was taking tea with
his friend living not many miles from
Newton, who had some blackberries on
his table picked from the hillsides,
where they were growing wild. Mr..
Dunn obtained some of the slips ON
the following day, and by careful guilt
walton he succeeded in producing the
celebrated Kittatinny Blackberry.
Fortunes have been made out of the
cultivation and sale of these plants,
but the originator has never realized a
cent thereby.

THE RAcE.-A grand trot between
William Smiths b. 6. "Waverly Boy"
VS.. "Old Major" of this city, and 10
seph DeCamp's S. g. John r. McPher-
son, which had been advertised for
some days came off at Waverly Park
yesterday afternoon. 5000 side were
the stakes-best two in three to wag-
ons.
1t was doubtful for some time before
the race, whether the trot would come
off, owing to some "shenanigen" on
the part of the Newark party, who in
sisted on allowing "Bummer," or Jim
Collins to drive the Mcpherson horse.
Jim, it appears, does not bear the
most enviable reputation as driver
hence the objections of Mr.. Keenan,
who entered Waverly boy" Howev-
Ell, we will say that in this race James
acquitted himself very creditably, deal
ing quite f.irly.
At half past three o'clock both horses
got off squarely = Waverly Boy"
slightly leading, but soon after fouling
with Mcpherson, who, after disenga-
ging, made desperate strides, and ta-
king the lead, coming home in the
first half in Waverly Boy half a
second behind. Mcpherson maintained
his gait throughout the heat, reaching
home and making the heat in 2.52.
1t was thought that in the next heat,
"Waverly Boy" would retrieve his
hitherto fair name, but, after being
started, the Mcpherson horse distanced
him--leaving him almost out of sight
Mcpherson taking his own time, and
making the second heat in 3.04, and
winning the stakes very easily.
We never saw pc orer trot. In JUS
tice to "Waverly Boy" however, we
will say that we think he was not in
citing condition He was entirely
too heavy, and needs more practice.
