lowing melancholy paragraph:
Yesterday, had an interview with Mr..
Prentice. He is not the man he was ten
years ago Indeed, his genius is gone, and
his person is mere wreck. His family is
broken np-wife dead, one son killed on the
Confederate side, another settled on u farm
down the river-and the old man, vergipp
on three score and ten, cooks his breakfast
and dinner in his little room on the third
floor of the Courier building. and lives only
in conversations about the past This man
once welded an imperial power with his
wit and his music. Now, the world has
whirled past him, and he lies OH the shore
q mere stranded wreck.

The WorlTs London special says
"The race is conceded universally to-
have been perfectly fair and honorable
on both sides. The time occupied BY
the Oxford was 22'minutes and Al sec-
onds. more than they took over the
course few days ago. The distance
rowed is little less than four miles and
three furlongs. The day was fair but
the tide unfavorable, For the FIRST mile
of the race the Harvard was ahead by
more than length, rowing AZ strokes
per minute to the Oxfords 80. The
Harvard's rowing vas most brilliant, and
many believe tbs race might have been
gained had the cexswain made better els
forts to take the Oxfords water. AS
Hammersmitb bridge was passed the adj
vantage was still with the Harvard 5,
but it was perceived that the pace at
which they started could not be sustalN-
ed ~ the Harvards sank from 43 to A.
and lower, and the Oxford rose to forty
strokes per minute and maintained 1T
10 the end A little before Cheswick
was reached, about half way the Oxford
by splendid maneuvre of the coxswain,
took the Hartard's water, and all Of
Burnham $ efforts to escape the Oxford )
wash were in vain. As Cheswick Church
was passed the Harvards were visibly
distressed, and Burnham throwing water
over his stroke, and Simmons, on whom
the labor and the sultriness told heavy,
it was now perceived that the race was
lost by the Harvard 5, though one more
heroic effort was made to gain the Ok
ford's side, when the gun sounded
The Harvard after moments rest, drew
up by the side Of the Oxiord's boat and
appauded their victors by clapping their
hands The Oxonians acknowledged
this by taking off their hats. There are
various theories of course Of the Ilar-
wards failure. 1t is rumored that
thelr diet has lately been vegetarian,
but it is not true. l.oring is criticised
for not having English coaching, Burn
ham for bad steering, but many good
judges declare that the race was almost
the repetition Of the race between the
English universities, and the Harvard $
failed because its style is that OF Cam

1--WE don't vouch for its tru:hfulness), on
Thompson and Rogers. two married men,
who, wandering home late one night
stopped at what Thompson supposed was
his residence, but which his companion
assisted was his own house. Thompson
rang the bell Justify, when a window was
opened, and lady inquired what was
wanted. sMsdam," inquired Mr.. T.,
isn't this Mr.. T-Thompson's house v'
"No," replied the lady; "this is the res
idence of Mr.. Rogers" "Well," ex.
claimed Thompson, "Mrs. T-T-Thomp.
son-beg your pardon-Mrs. Rogers
won't you just step down to the door and
pick out Rogers, for Thompson wants te

FLAX SEED.-Some of our farmers
are turning their attention to the cultiva-
tion of fax. At the present price of
wheat one bushcl Of FAX seed is equal to
more than three of wheat-then the straw
Is werth $40 per ton. If an acre of
ground viii produce one-third as much
FAX as wheat, it is argued, taking one
year with another, fax is the most profit
able crop Gentlemen who experiment
ed on a small scale last season intend
trying it on larger scale the coming
season, as they assure US there Is more
money IN it than in wheat. Messrs.
Beach & Monteith, of the Steam Flour
ing Mills in this city, offer inducements
to farmers who wish to engage in the cul-
tiyation of fax, that should not be over
looked by them. They have procured
the best variety of seed, which can be OBJ
timed of them by any responsible party.
They will also contract for the flax crop
of the coming season in this county
